Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Like Song Ren, there are still many players immersed in "The Witcher: Wild Hunt".

Open world games revolve around the two key elements of openness and world.

It can be said that "The Witcher: Wild Hunt" is a standard open world with a strong background, but it is not actually free in terms of gameplay.

But the world view created by the mission plot makes players feel that this world is real.

Various collection tasks and side tasks all imply that what players do will have different impacts on the world.

We refer to the medieval poor-style architecture of Willen and the Western European-style architecture of Novigrad.

All give players a sense of reality.

In the game, the player seems to have really become Geralt the White Wolf, but at the same time the player is just a witcher who cannot save the world.

Plus the mission design of Butterfly Effect and Trolley Problem.

This makes the world of "The Witcher: Wild Hunt" seem so real and believable.

When Song Ren in the game came to Novigrad, it was as if a new world had opened up.

Baiguoyuan is just a small village, not that big. Although Weilun is very big, the people are struggling to survive because of the war. Crow's Nest is more like a refugee cave.

But Novigrad is different. Although it is located in Redania, Novigrad does not belong to the jurisdiction of any country, but is a neutral free seaport city.

Relying on free trade, Novigrad has gathered unimaginable wealth, so the entire city center is also very prosperous, but also because of the developed economy, the forces in the city are also complicated.

The headquarters of the Church of Eternal Fire is located here, and with the support of Redania, barbecue banquets are held almost every day in the city, but the targets of the barbecue are sorceresses and some non-human races.

However, while collecting clues in Novigrad, White Wolf also met another old acquaintance: Triss, who was of course also a sorceress.

Moreover, the other party seems to have had an affair with the white wolf when he lost his memory, but now Triss's attitude is obviously much colder.

"So, Bai Lang, why are all your old acquaintances sorceresses?" Song Ren remembered the night with Keira in the woods and couldn't help but be speechless.

However, Triss in front of her did not know the whereabouts of Ciri, so if he wanted to find out the whereabouts of Ciri, the White Wolf had to find other people, such as his best friend, the romantic poet Dandelion.

However, Dandelion also disappeared and his whereabouts were unknown, so Bai Lang had to seek help from Nuo Cheng's basement.

Except for the Eternal Fire Church, all walks of life in Nuocheng are controlled by four underground bosses.

It sounded very awesome, but after a few tasks, Song Ren was speechless.

In fact, these underground bosses have a harmonious industrial image, especially when they first met in a large bathhouse. This feature is so distinctive.

The four giants are Di Pang, the bathhouse owner who knows Bai Lang, and is the Gwent character that Bai Lang got on the Bloody Duke table.

The beggar in the slums who has cooperated with Triss is Hawthorne II, the pimp king who controls the brothels and casinos in the city, and the dwarf butcher who looks very fierce.

Faced with Geralt's request, Di Pang also put forward a condition, that is, someone recently ransacked his private treasury, so he wanted Geralt to help him find out who did it.

However, as the White Wolf investigated, he discovered that the person who robbed the vault turned out to be his good friend Dandelion.

Following the clues, White Wolf quickly found Hawthorne II and obtained the whereabouts of Dandelion from him. It turned out that Ciri found Dandelion immediately when he came to Novigrad, and In order to remove a cursed magic weapon, two people approached Hawthorne II for help, and robbing the treasury was Hawthorne's condition.

However, the money in the vault was intercepted by the witch hunter, and Hawthorne also fell out with the two of them, and Dandelion was directly captured into the gang.

Facing the guy in front of him who almost hurt Xili, Song Ren in the game directly chose to chop him to death with a knife.

Afterwards, White Wolf and Triss played a trick to rescue Dandelion, but unfortunately Dandelion didn't know where Ciri had gone, because when he was captured, Ciri used the time and space to He ran away at the last moment.

As a result, the clues to Novigrad were interrupted, leaving only the last location: the Skellige Islands.

But compared to the main plot, what Song Ren saw and heard in Novigrad made Song Ren even more interesting.

First of all, there are many people in Novigrad who can play Gwent, and there are even main quest lines that are promoted because of Gwent.

For example, a dwarf friend Geralt knows is operating a very precious Gwent card.

At the same time, because of this Gwent card, everyone who owned it was looted, which fully demonstrated the madness of people in the world of "The Witcher: Wild Hunt" for this card sport.

Of course, in addition to this, in Nuocheng's bank, he found that he could actually borrow money. Although he could not borrow much, it gave him a very real feeling.

But it was the two shops in Novigrad that fascinated him the most.

This restaurant is located in front of the bridge leading to the Patriarch's Square from the port of Novigrad. There are three girls with different styles inside. For 20 yuan, you can get a relaxing experience.

There is another one located next to St. Gregory's Bridge. This is a relatively high-end entertainment venue. Not only can you play cards on the first floor, but there are also non-human races to experience the happiness brought by elves, but the price is also high. It's a lot more expensive at 40 yuan.

"This game is incredible! This is not "The Witcher: Wild Hunt", this is gambling and whoring!" Song Ren couldn't help but sigh.

Playing Gwent and making bets with people everywhere, Viren staked a sorceress Keira, and when he arrived in the big city of Novigrad, the white wolf completely let himself go!

Triss seems to be a little confused over there, and then this entertainment place can actually drive piles.

"Lao Zhang, have you reached Novigrad City in your game progress? There are good things here!" Song Ren connected to the voice of his good brother Lao Zhang, wanting to share his findings with him.

"Tch, aren't they those two restaurants? I've already visited them." Zhang Yi's voice came from the voice channel.

"Awesome, Lao Zhang, but do you have that much money? No equipment or materials?" Song Ren asked curiously.

Compared with the previous life, Chen Xu developed a lot of money-grabbing content in "The Witcher", and he harmonized it.

Including Heshan Bank in the follow-up Blood and Wine, it will also be slightly harmonious by then, and there will not be unlimited withdrawals from minions.

Therefore, there is still a shortage of money in the early stages of the game. Song Ren, who has been advancing the main mission, basically spends all his money on buying alchemy items and materials. Of course, a lot of it is also used to buy Gwent cards. In this entertainment venue Although it is not expensive, the money is really not affordable.

"Are you stupid? The archiving mechanisms of "The Witcher: Wild Hunt" and "Bloodborne" are different. Can't you manually archive?"

"You save a file before dating a prostitute in the game. Can you just load the file after the relationship?" Zhang Yi's voice came from the earphones.

Song Ren was shocked after listening to Lao Zhang's words.

"Old Zhang... is this what a human being can do!?"
