Reborn to create a virtual world

Chapter 22 The Record Breaker

If a game collapsed in the later stage because it insulted the IQ of mainstream players by selling its feelings and was abandoned, then Beichen's early works were rejected because they sold their feelings too far away from the masses.

Lin Shu vaguely remembered that in the next few years, the most popular games at this time became more and more social - of course, this is not a problem, and it is even an advantage for netizens.But while the sociability is increasing, the fineness of the plot is constantly decreasing... The more peripherals are sold, the more perfunctory the plot is, and many of them have become familiar dog-blood plots made up of vulgar plots.

Sometimes businesses should not underestimate the IQ of players and consumers.Many times, players don't give up on a game, not because they can't tell the difference between good and bad, and they think there are no other better options.A game that sells feelings, but the plot is becoming more and more perfunctory, which is fatal for a game.

"Nine Heavens" was born at that time.

Beichen's most popular game before "Jiuzhongtian" is "Fu of the Tang Dynasty", but the popularity of this game has never been increased. The reason is that the research of Fu of the Tang Dynasty is too careful and the plot is too thick, which makes the whole plot a bit awkward. Down-to-earth, the result is that there are many diehards, but the audience is not wide.This problem has been greatly improved in Jiuzhongtian, so this game can surpass Beichen's previous works and become a masterpiece.

Lin Shu's words can be said to be right in one sentence. This is exactly the problem that Bei Chen focused on introspecting when making "Nine Heavens", and it is also the part that will be improved in "Nine Heavens".

It took some time for Beichen's management to point out this problem, but Yang Ziqi knew that there must be someone who was keen in this area and could easily find the problem.

But... such a child?

He stared at Lin Shu closely for a while, trying to see what was different about him, but Yang Ziqi couldn't find anything with his naked eyes.

Just a pretty kid.

Finally he said, "Is this what you thought?"

Lin Shu asked back: "Otherwise, who do you think told me?"

Yang Ziqi examined Lin Shu for a while before he said, "I haven't asked your name yet. Would you mind introducing yourself? Mr. Xiao?"

His words "little gentleman" have a bit of playfulness, a little bit of Lin Shu's childishness.But although there was still accommodating towards the child in that playful tone, there was no previous contempt and disapproval.

Lin Shu also looked at him, and then said: "My name is Lin Shu. Shuangmulin, She Yushu."

And this name will be a name that Yang Ziqi will always be impressed with in his previous life and this life.

Yang Ziqi finally invited Lin Shu and Du Sitong to have a meal, although he didn't talk about recruiting.

Lin Shu is very frank about this.He felt that it was only natural for Yang Ziqi to do so based on his own identity and ability.And the other party's kindness to gain his favor and friendly attitude in the future is simply not too profitable.

... As long as Yang Ziqi can see the reality clearly this time, don't be as stubborn and conceited as he was in his previous life.

Although Yang Ziqi didn't mention poaching again, he exchanged telephone and instant messaging numbers with Lin Shu before leaving.After returning, he sent two accounts to Lin Shu through instant messaging software.

These two accounts are the closed beta accounts of "Nine Heavens".

Nine Heavens... Lin Shu also played this game when he was a child, but he never went through the closed beta.

He flicked the activation code on the sticky note lightly with his finger, showing a thoughtful smile.

"The activation code that Mr. Yang gave you is for a new game? Summer vacation internal testing?" Du Sitong asked.

"Yes, it's already in closed beta now. However, the activation code for closed beta is quite difficult to get. Some of them are drawn from old players of their company, and some are distributed in limited quantities on several large websites. Ours is a special invitation code. It was sent to some well-known players in a targeted manner."

Du Sitong was surprised and said, "Is there such a thing?"

Lin Shu nodded and said, "This is the benefit of fame."

Du Sitong asked him: "Are you going? Isn't the final exam coming soon..."...?

Lin Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect Du Sitong to be worried about this, so he said, "Teacher, you should know? The current study is not difficult for me, and I won't fail the exam."

Du Sitong was still a little worried, and said, "But it's not good to develop bad study habits."

Lin Shu said: "I have a sense of proportion."

Afterwards, the two installed the beta client and entered the game of "Nine Heavens".

The character building interface of "Nine Heavens" is very distinctive. It looks like a 3D modeling interface, but it is simpler and more complicated than the real 3D modeling.

Concise is the operation and usage.Compared with 3D modeling, the character creation method of "Nine Heavens" is actually not much different from that of ordinary 3D online games at this time. It's just that there are more grid lines used as scales, and it is more relaxed Restrictions allow pinching more exaggerated or more detailed looks and body shapes.

But there are also differences.

Even in "Nine Heavens", the appearance will affect the attributes, and even every appearance detail will affect the attributes.If you are tall, you will descend quickly; if you are slender, you will lack strength... Even the shape and size of your ears will affect your hearing perception, and the size of your feet will also affect your chances of being repelled... In this way, there is a natural way own computing mechanism.

This calculation mechanism will not be displayed in the game, but the calculation result will be displayed in the property bar with each change.This later led to a polarized situation - some people abandoned their appearance and started chasing the ultimate power with an extremely weird appearance, while some chose a beautiful appearance and abandoned the advantages in attributes.

Later, when the player base of "Nine Heavens" was the largest and most prosperous, someone summed up a very detailed strategy, and studied the most superior appearance of each profession one by one.Lin Shu has seen some of those strategies and used them as a reference, but he has never really followed the strategies to build characters.

Of course not this time.

Originally, if the attributes and configuration of a game accounted for 10%, then the operation and game accumulation accounted for at least 90%.Only such a game can be called a good game.Lin Shu thinks "Nine Heavens" is a very good game, and under this premise, he feels that the influence of basic attributes is actually negligible, so he didn't adjust the characters so that they can't be seen because of these.

But despite this, he still referred to some previously known strategies, and tried to use more favorable details without affecting the pleasing appearance of the characters.

The final figure was a medium-sized black-haired young man with slender limbs and deep facial features. The appearance did not deviate from most people's aesthetics, but the outline of the ear was more obvious than the general situation.

Compared with Lin Shu's neatness and straight to the point, Du Sitong's speed is much slower.When Lin Shu came to watch her for the last time, she was still taking care of the character's beauty and hair.Because the angle of view is too close, it is basically impossible to see the appearance of the character, only a fair-faced female character.

Lin Shu felt that Du Sitong would not spend enough time at a glance, so he advanced the game by himself.

Since last year, quite a few games have cooperated with YY to embed voice systems in the games. As a new game newly launched today, "Nine Heavens" is no exception in this regard.

Players can choose voice or typing to have a conversation.It is even possible to communicate by letting the system automatically convert speech into text.Although there will still be some recognition errors in this way, it is basically capable of communicating.

Lin Shu's voice still has a little childish voice, but it is not suitable for direct voice communication, so he chose the communication method of converting voice into text.

After completing the setting, he appeared in Novice Village.

As a quite innovative self-cultivation game, the setting of "Nine Heavens" in Xinshou Village is still somewhat different from the traditional setting.At the beginning of the story, they were not set up as teenagers and girls born in the village, but young people who rushed from all directions to the foot of Cangqiong Mountain to participate in the general election for the entry into the realm of comprehension.

And the way to get started with the general election is also quite special, it is not a general task upgrade.It is generally divided into three steps-the first step is to test the spirit root, the second step is to test the heart, and the third step is to gain reputation.

Testing Lingen is a mini-game. There are six options to choose from. On the surface, it is divided into six types: five elements and no attributes, but in fact it is six different types of mini-games. There are both puzzle and reaction games. There are also knowledge classes... Individuals can choose the type they are good at, and when the end is over, the result will be judged according to the type selected and the points obtained.Generally speaking, it is easier to pass the level, but it is quite difficult to get a high score.

To measure one's mind is to choose one's own path of good and evil.No matter what the choice is, it will not affect the entry, but it will have an impact on the personal camp attributes.

The final prestige is the content of the upgrade - within the village, players must finally select a sect NPC, receive repeated tasks from them to complete or use some game-approved method to increase favorability and prestige.This NPC will be the master of the player's martial arts in the game, so the choice must be cautious, because the master's skills and expertise will affect the player's future development path.

After completing the first three levels, the player has completed the novice task and officially started the game.

And at this time, Lin Shu is breaking through the first level, testing the spirit root.

The spiritual root system of "Nine Heavens" has six lines, of which the sixth line can be called either the full spiritual root or the non-spiritual root, and the official name is the different spiritual root.Different from the previous five series, each has its own emphasis, the different spirit root is more like a lottery.Other types of tests are a series of levels from easy to difficult for the same type of mini-games, but Different Spirit Root is a series of levels randomly mixed with several types of games.

The last thing drawn may not be the spirit root. Most of the time it is easier to get the spirit root of the series of games with the highest score. Only in rare cases is it possible to trigger the spirit root.

There is a leaderboard in the game for the level of testing the spirit root, which is updated at any time and the player has achieved the highest score in each level.Players feel that they can't move through the level, so they can choose to submit it independently.

When Lin Shu entered the game, it was actually after several days of beta testing.But when he started to play this level of the game, everyone in the server was shocked to find that the game records of various departments were being broken at an alarming rate, and there was an unfamiliar name, who was making people feel astonished. People were caught off guard and rushed up the ranking list.

This name...is called North of Cangshan Mountain.
