Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

"There are too many online tasks! My brain is overloaded!"

After leaving Manichaeism in Novice Village, the game also entered the first map scene, Zhuge Yu's hometown Changkong Village.

Unlike the previous Manicheism on the mountain, Changkong Village is much larger.

And there are more side plots in the game.

As early as the previous Manichaeism, Zhang Yi had already discovered that there were many side plots in the game.

Many props found accidentally are useful, and they are like nesting dolls inside each other.

For example, when going up the mountain at the beginning, the player needs to find a bottle of wood decay agent to corrode the wood barrier encountered on the way before he can successfully break through it.

Generally speaking, this wood decay agent should be used to corrode the wood barrier, and it will not have much effect later.

But in fact, this wood-destroying agent is related to an ordinary side task.

He was still stuck for a long time, and then he figured it out by watching other people's conversations in his own game group.

When it comes to Changkong Village, the situation brought about by the larger map is that there are more tasks in this line.

Almost every area has one or two side tasks, and the more critical point is that these side tasks are not that simple to solve.

Ordinary side missions in RPG games such as "Final Fantasy" and "Xenoblade Chronicles" are nothing more than fighting a few monsters or finding something and someone.

In "Destiny", although the beginning and ending are the same, the process is not that simple.

The whole process is more inclined to the gameplay of detective reasoning and decryption.

This requires the player to open the palace of thinking and use their clever little brains to figure out how to complete the side tasks.

However, there are many tasks among them, and the rewards given are quite generous.

Some are martial arts and mental techniques, while others are elixirs given to increase skill points in the game.

Speaking more importantly, you can complete the main plot of the game without using these.

But the key point is that for many players, becoming stronger in the game is a very addictive thing.

If it's just an ordinary piece of equipment or a relatively useless medicine and money, many players don't value it too much.

But martial arts, mental skills, and tricks to increase skill points, life, and internal strength are completely different.

Just like when players play soul games like "Elden Ring", after completing the first round and reaching the second round, some players may be too lazy to go to the underworld in the sewers of the royal city, and they find it too cumbersome to unlock the journey to the Valkyrie. .

Or maybe the boss on the road can be beaten without fighting, but something like the ancient dragon strengthening stone is a must.

It can be said that these side missions in "Destiny Qiyu" are like this. If you don't do them after triggering them, you will always feel that they are a little less interesting.

In addition, there are many mini-games in "Destiny Qiyu", and compared with the original version, Chen Xu also adds more gameplay.

For example, gambling, in addition to major gambling houses, includes Cuju ball games, chess and cards, money making, cricket fighting, etc.

Of course, Zhang Yi didn't even want to take a look at these gambling games in the game.

On the one hand, he is a very positive person and has always been sworn in with gambling and drugs.

Gambling and drugs are two major evils that he has never tolerated. Even though he is in a game, he is still very determined, even in a game!

On the other hand, his luck has always been very bad. Although "Destiny Qiyu" is a stand-alone game, this kind of gambling project is not about comparing data and attributes. It relies entirely on probability, which is the so-called winning or losing. luck.

He himself was quite confident about his luck. Why would he play a small game when he knew he would lose?

Of course, in addition to these small luck-based games, there are also projects in the game that really require players to use their wisdom, and that is the traditional Chinese entertainment project: Go.

But he won't!

The side mission was frustrated, he was sworn in with gambling and drug addiction, and now he couldn't even play the small game of Go.

Although the game is good, my IQ is blown!

When I was feeling emotional, a voice invitation suddenly popped up.

"Old Song, why are you calling me?" Zhang Yi asked strangely.

"Where have you been playing? Have you arrived at Kaifeng Mansion? I just finished a mission for a female protagonist, but I think the game group seems to have chosen the wrong option, and the strategy has not been successful, and my cloud save cloud has been overwritten!" Voice! Song Ren's depressed voice came from the channel.

"I just finished the main plot of Jingnan before arriving in Kaifeng City. If you want, I will send you the archive." Zhang Yi said and then opened the archive location, made a copy and sent it to you.

"But why are you progressing so fast? You haven't completed any side tasks? The side tasks in this game are simply too difficult, and there is also a mini-game Go that I can't find any strategies for!" Zhang Yi said a little depressed.

The side missions are not bad, you can still pass them if you think more carefully.

But he is really powerless in this game of Go.

"I haven't finished exploring the branch lines, and I haven't done some of them. As for Go, it's very simple!" Song Ren's voice suddenly became proud in the voice channel.

"Easy? Did you pass? Send me a copy of the chess game guide." Zhang Yi was a little surprised.

As for side missions, he didn't want to read the guide, but there was really nothing he could do about Go.

"Strategy? I'm too lazy to read it. I wrote it all myself. What's so difficult about Go?" Song Ren hummed in the voice channel.

"Do you know how to play Go?" Zhang Yi was a little confused. If it was a normal game, he could still use Go software to play.

Gu Jie

But these are all endgame chess pieces, how to play?

"I know how to use a hammer! There are so many moves in the back that I can't do it, but for the one, two, or two or three moves in the front, can't you try one step at a time? You can always try the right move." Song Ren laughed.

Listening to Song Ren's words in the voice channel, Zhang Yi in the game fell into silence for a while.

Play the mini game of Go using the exhaustive method?

It’s really yours!

After hanging up the voice, Zhang Yi did not choose this exhaustive method, but put down this little game for the time being.

Although from Song Ren's answer, it seems that the rewards of this small game of Go are rich, it is too laborious and laborious.

As a Go-illiterate, he still chose to wait until the graphic guide or video guide came out, and then copied the homework accordingly.

After putting this mini-game of Go aside for the time being, Zhang Yi continued to advance the main line of the game.

At the same time, we finally saw the first city in the game: Kaifeng Mansion.

The prosperous market, the tile shops with storytelling and entertainment, and the meat market with people coming and going, although they are just places in the game, and they will certainly not be on a one-to-one scale like in reality.

But at first sight, Zhang Yi was still very moved, especially the market outside the palace was so bustling with people coming and going.

At the same time, it also reminded Zhang Yi of the description in Tokyo Menghualu:

Outside Donghua Gate, the market is the most prosperous... Food, fresh flowers and fruits, fish, shrimps, turtles, crabs, preserved quails and rabbits, gold and jade treasures, and clothing are all wonders in the world.

Later, Hangzhou was also extremely prosperous.

"Go back to see Bao Zheng? Forget it, let's take a look around Hangzhou first." After just solving the first case and looking at the main tasks in the game, Zhang Yi did not choose to go to Bao Zheng immediately.

Instead, prepare to wander around the streets and alleys first. After all, this is the fun of the game.

Whether it is an open world, a box garden, a sandbox, or even a single-line RPG game, players' desire for exploration will never change.

Zhang Yi had already had a good stroll around the bustling Kaifeng before, and at the same time unlocked some new mini-games.

Now that we are in Hangzhou, it is natural to explore.

Walking around the streets and alleys, he went up to chat with people he met. Zhang Yi inadvertently received several side tasks.

"Hmm...? Is there another box here? Magic weapon treasure?"

Walking in the streets and alleys, when passing by a calligraphy and painting stall, Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, because in front of him was an interactive wooden box.

From his hometown of Changkong Village to Jingnanyi and Kaifeng, although he discovered many side missions and explorable content, this was the first time he saw this treasure chest.

'what you do! Do you think I have no law in Hangzhou? ? ’

Controlling Zhuge Yu to violently open the treasure box in front of him, the shopkeeper who heard the commotion in the store ran out with an angry look on his face.

Listening to the angry words in his ears, Zhang Yigang wanted to stop, but the next second a line of subtitles appeared in front of the screen [The mechanism of the treasure chest has been damaged, maybe you can open it if you try again].

But at the same time, Zhuge Yu shook his head: "No, this is the store's box. If you open it forcibly, you may violate the laws of the Song Dynasty." ’

"The store's box? I opened the store's box!"

Zhang Yili ignored him and started directly.

The old gangster of Hyrule and the great bandit of Skyrim Province, is he still afraid of this?

What are the things in the NPC's house used for in the game? Isn't it just for free prostitution for brave men?

The box in front of me is probably related to a certain subplot later, but how big of a deal is it?

It’s a big deal, don’t do it anymore, just take a look at the treasures inside!

He knocked twice more in succession, ignoring the shouts from the store owner next to him.

The box opened with a bang.

But before Zhang Yi could see clearly what was inside, an angry shout came from behind: "Stop!"

Turning around, he saw several head catchers surrounding him.

The next second the screen fell into darkness, and then the picture that appeared again was that of Kaifeng Mansion.

‘Young hero! I never imagined that I would have the day to interrogate you! ’

'Young Master Zhuge, the state has national laws and theft in broad daylight is not something you can get away with in a few words. ’

"Those who have stolen more than five guans according to the laws of the Song Dynasty will serve for three years!" Come on, take him down! Parade three times to show that you are listening carefully. After the tour, you will be sent to the frontier! ’

[Zhuge Yu, who had not yet made a name for himself in the Hangzhou area, was arrested for theft and sent to the frontier. A few years later, things changed, and the Anti-Tian League had grown too big to recover...]

? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Looking at the end of the game, Zhang Yi looked confused.

Open a box and it's gone! ?

Is there anything wrong with me, an adventurer, opening boxes? ?
