Game production: I really have landed

Chapter 313: Not enough pricks

"Brother Ax, there is nothing behind him. Is this appropriate?"

After all the hard work, the elite monster was defeated, but in the end there was not a single ball of light behind it, and the only drops were four bottles of blood dropped by Brother Ax himself.

The blood bottles consumed in the previous attempts over and over again far exceeded this number. It can be said that this stick was a huge loss.

"Ah, here, I thought there would be an awesome weapon or key prop at the back, but there is nothing. This is inconsistent with Mr. Luo's usual high-risk, high-return design."

"Is there a possibility that this thing looks like an elite monster on the surface, but is actually a small monster, with a lot of them behind it?"

"These are all elite monsters, so how difficult is the BOSS? Damn it!"

There was nothing he could do if he didn't drop his things, so Erxiao went back and sat with a lantern.

The state is really bad, so it’s better to play it safe.

"Wait a minute, brothers, wipe your hands, they're covered in sweat."

Erxiao raised his hands up as if asking for credit, and they shone with a moist sheen under the light.

"Damn it, let her pretend!"

However, he didn't notice it when he was making the lantern. Erxiao, who had just successfully challenged himself, felt refreshed. Instead, he discovered something that he had not discovered before.

Right next to the huge iron door that opens from the opposite side in the upper left corner of the lantern, a pink lantern attracts some attention.

Erxiao walked forward, but was surprised when a conversation was triggered by the window.

"Finally met the NPC!"

A somewhat weak voice reached the hunter's ears through the curtains and iron windows:

“Oh, you must be a hunter.

And... I'm not from around here. My name is Gilbert, and I'm a foreigner like you.

You must be very happy, the people in Yanan treat guests in a very special way. "

"Happy? Just after I left the clinic, I was chased by three big men with machetes. This is how you treat customers, right?"

Erxiao looked speechless, then raised his chin slightly, pointed his nostrils at the camera and snorted softly,
"It's a good thing I'm better at it!"

“Yanan Town is so hospitable and hospitable, hahaha, so welcoming.”

"You're so passionate that you want to die, right?"

The man opposite the window is still muttering:
"Okay, I don't know if I can still stand up freely, but if you need anything, I'm willing to help."

"Another damn... cripple! (Stone Octopus)"

"Why can you make speech?"

The man said that this city has been cursed, and no matter what reason we came here, we should leave as soon as possible.

After the conversation ended, the hunter didn't say anything, but the man continued the conversation on his own:

"What did you say? Dark blood? If you are interested in blood, maybe you should try your luck at the Healing Church."

"Here he comes! The mute protagonist!"

"Souls games are like this. The protagonist can only speak when he is beaten, hahaha."

The man suggested that the hunter go through the canyon and try his luck in the cathedral area of ​​Yanan Animal Hunting.

Although the Healing Church does not welcome outsiders, tonight is a special day to hunt, and it may be an opportunity for hunters.

"To be honest, this guideline can be triggered right after it climbs up. The blind anchor Shi Chui."

"So we should go to the church district in the east now. Then the question is, how to distinguish southeast from northwest in a world without a compass?"

"The Healing Church, as soon as the name sounds like it, is not a good thing. I always feel that the curse was caused by this group of people."

No matter what everyone guesses, so far, the next short-term goal of the game is considered to be, go to the Cathedral District to find the Dark Blood.

However, in this process, the first thing to do is to explore Yanan’s pictures first.

The wandering citizens of Yanan did not pose much of a threat, but during the process of exploring the map, through the prompts of the pink lanterns, they found several NPCs hiding in the house.

It seems that they have not lost their minds, but unfortunately they have shown obvious resistance to the protagonist hunter.

"Sorry, I don't want to have anything to do with you."

A statement like this is quite polite.

"Nasty outsider! Who will open the door for you on hunting night! Go away now! Now!"

When did our dignified Fourth Natural Disaster ever experience such birdiness?
Everyone in the live broadcast room immediately urged Erxiao to smash the guy's door.

Erxiao also transformed his cane into a whip form, held the door open and whipped it a few times, but unfortunately nothing happened.

Plaza area.

The townspeople of Yanan are currently having a grand bonfire party.

Whether it was in the middle of the road near the bonfire or on the corridors on both sides, there were a large number of mobs gathered.

It cannot be defeated, so it can only be divided and attacked.

Even though Erxiao was very careful, he was still overturned here.

First of all, the game introduces a new kind of Yharnam town citizen. Compared with the ordinary counterparts who hold machetes and pitchforks, this one already uses firearms.

The rate of fire is very fast, and the damage taken is also very terrifying.

Erxiao started rolling all over the floor after being hit. He found a corner with a bunker and slaughtered several Yanan townspeople. As soon as he came down the stairs to the middle of the road, he discovered a dog here.

It was just a matter of throwing him down and biting him in one go. The hunter groaned and turned into ashes.

"It's too sinister!"

"This is called a gun. Our hunter's pistol is just a √. It's really rubbish."

"My rating is not as good as the Shield."

After resurrection, Erxiao, who had already carried the board, would naturally not fall down in the same place for the second time.

After slaughtering all the citizens of Yanan who participated in the party, the collection of blood stone fragments and cold-blooded dew made Er Xiao's expression look better.

"Bloodstone fragments? Keystone fragments!
Cold-blooded dew?The soul of an unknown traveler! "

This kind of finding the same feeling in different games still makes everyone enjoy it.

Past the bonfire area, go up the stairs on the left to the fountain area on the opposite side.

And the culprit who had just been knocking on the door for a long time also came into view.

A fat brother holding a turning head.

The first time Erxiao saw this guy, he didn't fight him, but ran away.

"Coward, fuck him!"

"Er Xiao, if you don't attack this guy, we will attack you."

"What supervising team?"

Er Xiao rolled his eyes:
"I'm just kidding, if I don't keep my posture like this, I'm an elite monster like Brother Ax. If I die here, it will be 360 ​​miles away.

We have walked a relatively long distance, and the most important thing now is to quickly open a shortcut to the lantern nearby. "

"Convincingly reasoned."

"I'm shocked. When did Erxiao learn to play games with her brain? I remember when she played Monster Hunter before, she looked like a pig's nose."

"We can't use this analogy with monster hunting. The entry barrier for that thing is a bit high." It's just...

Erxiao, who had just escaped from Brother Brick's clutches, did not notice at all that where the coffins were piled up in front of the fountain statue, three groups of black tar-like things were lying on the spot.

As soon as Erxiao ran past here, three huge crows suddenly jumped up from the ground.

The claws moved like the mad dog before, with an exaggeration.

[you are dead! ]
"Laughing, coming from the old thief's malice."

"Old thief Luo Bai: Jie Jie Jie, do you think I don't know that you don't dare to fight Brother Brick? I'm still here waiting for you!"

"This is how you play the old thief's game. Give you a slap when you are most proud, and give you a little mercy when you are most discouraged.

It's a pity that most of the Souls-like games on the market have only learned the first point. "

Damn... I have to run again.

Erxiao sighed, getting used to it.

All the map designs of the old thief are the kind that look complicated at first glance, but in fact there are surprises from time to time, and in the end, after running around a lot, they become more familiar than at home.

In a sense, the Hakoba design has become an industry benchmark, and has even been used as a reference for subsequent games.

Erxiao also used his own death again and again to finally explore a path.

She met an old woman who wanted a hunter to help her find a safer shelter, and a female senior who was also a hunter and had a beak mask like a plague doctor.

We came to the malicious Dog Alley and also went to the sewer area under Yanan.

I can only understand the feeling of being pushed out of a bridge tunnel by a rat and pushed under the sewer and having to climb up again.

The main focus is to raise blood pressure.

It also deepens the impression of "kill the beast first" in players' minds.

"In the game Bloodborne, the humanoid monster is the younger brother!"

Erxiao made a violent comment.

Naturally, the harvest is not small. A brand-new weapon "saw spear" looks a bit like a meat saw and does much more damage than a cane.

The thrust of the transformation attack is very addictive.

The biggest gain among them is the "Hunter Set". As a display equipment, it may also be the most handsome set of equipment in the game among many people.

Ember feather hat, triangular mask, cloak, slim leather jacket.

Handsome don't want it.

Erxiao also changed it immediately, much to the delight of the brothers.

But now, there is still a question in the hearts of the brothers.

Where to upgrade?

To be honest, Echoes of Blood has been collected together, and the constant deaths have been lost.

Because he hadn't discovered where to upgrade it so far, Erxiao didn't care much about it.

But how can the numerical value of a soul game increase if it cannot be upgraded?

That is, based on my previous experience playing Dark Souls.

Dark Souls can only be upgraded in Lordland after passing the Northern Immortal Academy in the prologue. Everyone guesses that you can only go home and upgrade after defeating the first BOSS.

However, many players still raised their own criticisms.

"The pace of this game is still a bit slow. It feels a bit difficult for the sake of difficulty. The upgrade option is not available after so long. I feel so lost in this journey."

"Indeed, it means that everyone has not played the soul made by the old thief for several years. If you can bear it for a while, novice players will definitely not be able to bear it. I think we can make a patch and optimize it here."

"Hurry and find the first BOSS, Erxiao!"

Finally, on a spacious bridge with a large number of clergy statues on it, which could allow three carriages to pass side by side, the first BOSS battle in the entire Bloodborne journey finally struck.

Clerk Beast.

This guy is huge, as tall as two of the protagonists.

She had a disheveled head raised, and her whole body was dry and the outline of bones under the skin could be seen.

On his abnormally developed left hand, there is also the same messy white hair as the top of his head.

This chaotic feeling makes people feel uncomfortable all over.

"Come on Erxiao!"

The brothers in the live broadcast room were also waving flags and shouting, but it was only after Erxiao actually got on board that he realized that this was it.

Even though this guy is huge, his actual attack method is to punch continuously. At most, when the distance is far away, he will jump into the sky and hit Erxiao, making it difficult to hide.

The attack is easy to dodge, but the damage is not high. The damage caused by hitting a hunter with such a large body is about the same as being slashed by a citizen of Yharnam.

But the townspeople in Yanan are crazy about swordsmanship, and they'll be gone if you hit them.

"This rubbish boss is not even worthy of carrying my Brother Ax's shoes, really."

Erxiao easily dodged the BOSS's attack and opened a bright wound on his body with a saw spear, with a look of disdain on his face.

However, the BOSS is garbage, but the BGM of the entire battle, the environment on the entire bridge, and the orange-red background of the world all set off the atmosphere of a normal battle very well.

At least Erxiao was happy.

It’s fun to abuse food!
With the final transformation attack of the saw spear in Erxiao's hand, the holy staff beast knelt down on one knee, and his whole body gradually turned into the white ashes that the protagonist turned into when he died, and the blood all over his body exploded like fireworks.

[Prey slaughtered]
"Sword Hunter Badge" has been obtained.

[Sword Hunter Badge]
[One of the emblems produced by the Healing Church, the Silver Sword represents the Church Hunter.

Ludwig was the first hunter of the Healing Church. Most of them were clergy. Later, the clergy were transformed into extremely terrifying monsters. ]
"So this clerk beast is called Ludwig?"

"Hunters, beasts, good and evil come from the same source? It's a very touching design."

The discussion on the barrage was also lively.

The lantern that appeared on the ground made Erxiao breathe a sigh of relief.

Although this BOSS is a bit weak, his size is still quite oppressive.

Even if you watch it again, the fighting process is still very tense.

But Erxiao didn't stop, and immediately came to the lantern in front and sat down.

"Go back to Hunter's Dream to upgrade!"

When the hunter returns to the hunter's dream, just as everyone imagined, a little change has taken place in the hunter's dream.

The abandoned doll that was originally placed on the left side of the steps on the mountain unexpectedly came to life!
"Hello, kind hunter, I am a doll taking care of you in this dream."

But at this moment, the brothers were no longer interested in what the doll sister said.

White hair, quiet, lady, doll!
"Wife! Wife! Wife!"

"Little Sister Doll! Little Sister Doll! Little Sister Doll!"

"It's alive! It's alive! It's alive!"

Erxiao's expression was distorted, and he looked at the barrage as if he were looking at a bunch of garbage.

"You can't prick too much!"
