Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 152: First experience of "Paper Wedding Dress"
Paper wedding dress - written in bright red handwriting on the road sign.

Wang Dali waved his arms nonchalantly and followed the trail gradually deep into the mountain village in the dense forest.

As he advanced, the world in front of Wang Dali gradually darkened, and the surroundings became extremely silent. Only the sound of feet stepping on dead leaves could be heard.

There were no wolves howling, no crows cawing, and the deathly silence made Wang Dali's hair stand on end and he broke out in a cold sweat.

On the forest path, Wang Dali noticed that the surrounding trees had also changed, and their shapes gradually became weird, like monsters that spread their teeth and claws to choose people to eat.

Suddenly, a root dropped out of thin air and half wrapped around Wang Dali's neck.

"Fuck!" Wang Dali exclaimed, hurriedly trying to throw it away.

But the roots were getting tighter and tighter, and Wang Dali could even feel the tiny wooden thorns protruding from the roots, as if they wanted to pierce the skin and penetrate deep into the arteries to suck hard.

Not only that, more and more roots were entangled from all directions, which was full of fear.

Just when Wang Dali was about to forcefully quit, a few cold reminders suddenly sounded in his ears:
"Detecting player's physiological condition..."

"In good health, all functions are normal, and there is no genetic history. You are allowed to enter the game."

Wang Dali felt that the pressure from the roots had eased a bit.

"Detecting the player's psychological condition..."

"The current score is 57 points, unable to enter a deeper immersion mode, and is weakening sensitive scenes and stimulating places..."

"Special reminder: This game is filled with a lot of exciting pictures, sounds and places. If the player wants to quit, please shout 'Quit the game' immediately. (Enter the game again to return to the last save point.)"

"The upper limit of your comprehensive fear value is 57 points. Once the upper limit of fear exceeds 57 points, the system will immediately disconnect the game to ensure your physical and mental health."

"Wish you a happy game——

Welcome to Paper Wedding Dress! "

As the words in the ear dissipated, the last root also left Wang Dali's body.

"I, isn't it just a normal physical examination? Why do I do it so scary!"

Wang Dali's words were trembling, and he was obviously frightened.

In VR games, a 'game physical examination' will be conducted every time before entering the game.

Because many games contain dangerous and exciting scenes, in order to ensure the physical and mental health of every player, game physical examination is an indispensable step.

But... other people's game physical examinations are normal.

In other words, others only get physical examination after entering the game.

But "Paper Wedding Dress" is different. They have a physical examination halfway through. Who would have thought of this?
and……

Wang Dali looked at the fear value of 57 and was secretly unhappy. What does it mean?

You only gave me 57 for my physique. This is simply the biggest insult to a body full of flesh.

It also reduces the sense of immersion and weakens some exciting scenes... If you have the ability, you can add them all back. You can see if I can cut them or not. That's it.

Wang Dali complained a lot and felt a little thirsty.

Only then did he notice that the scene in front of him had changed.

At some point, he appeared in front of a dilapidated farmhouse.

On the broken wooden door, there is a pair of 'perfect match', and the pair is pale,
It's like a trace of desolation left behind after being abandoned for a long time.

The red silk on the door frame was no longer bright red, revealing a gray color.

At the same time, Wang Dali couldn't help but recall a passage in his ears.

[My name is Ning Zifu, and my acquaintance with Mo Qi is very interesting...]

[At the beginning, I was opposed to the wedding of my parents' fingertips. What age was it and still engaged in feudal superstitions? But after we met, I regretted it. Why didn't I meet her earlier...]

[My head is very dizzy, my body is also groggy, and I always feel that I can’t exert my strength. It may be because I drank too much recently...]

The memories gradually fade away.

Wang Dali suddenly felt a little weak all over his body, as if someone had dragged him out of bed without waking up.

"Damn it, I can only feel that I don't have any strength anymore..." Wang Dali swallowed, "But it's okay if I don't have any strength, it saves me the chance to turn a horror game into a matchless game."

Wang Dali took a deep breath and cheered himself up.

Reach out and push the door——

squeak~~
A harsh and sharp sound suddenly sounded, and Wang Dali didn't even feel how much effort he had exerted.

"Why is there no one there? There were quite a lot of people when we were drinking just now..."

Involuntarily, Wang Dali suddenly started talking to himself.

Wang Dali's body froze at first.In the next second, Wang found that he could move freely.

The first thing that catches the eye is a shorter main house, with a wooden door full of age and a hemp rope tied with several knots.

Wang Dali pulled forward forcefully, but he didn't move at all.

"It must be Mo Qi's attention. I want to see if there is anything around that can cut the rope."

The voice of talking to himself sounded again.

But this time Wang Dali was not too frightened. He understood that the words spoken through his mouth were the main tasks given by the system.

Wang Dali looked around.

The layout of a normal farmhouse is small, with a side room and firewood piled in the yard.

The only difference is that there is a well in the yard and a small basket next to the well.

"Damn it, you asked me to go down the well to get it..."

Wang Dali muttered and looked around again.

The sky was so dark that even the dark clouds could not be seen.

"No, maybe there is a trap in the well. As soon as I look at the well, there will be an exciting scene. Do not all domestic games have such an old routine? I am too familiar with it."

After Wang Dali prepared himself mentally, he walked towards the well.

He closed his eyes and ventured into the well.

Then...slowly open his eyes that were closed to the slit.

He has done enough mental construction, no matter what the mirror in front of him is, he will not be surprised...

"Well, no, why is there nothing?" Wang Dali was very surprised.

In the well, there was only his own face, and nothing else.

In surprise, Wang Dali found a basket beside the well. He opened it and saw a pair of scissors inside.

"Huh? Is it that simple?"

Holding the scissors, Wang Dali was full of doubts.

"No, it's possible to open the door to kill..."

Cut the hemp rope and push it gently, and the door opens easily.

The bride wearing a hijab and wedding dress suddenly appeared quietly in front of her eyes.

"Hahaha, that's what I guessed." Wang Dali smiled proudly with his hands on his hips.

In his opinion, domestic horror games are just like that. There are only a few scary parts here and there, so there is no problem at all if you do a good job of psychological construction.

Next, Wang Dali was like a marionette, getting married under the command of the master of ceremonies.

There were no lights on in the house, only the faint light provided by wedding candles.

The clattering sound reflected the paper-man-like expressions of Gao Tang and the emcee.

"Damn it, it looks so scary, so scary." Wang Dali said, "But my many years of game experience tell me that the more scary a place looks like, the less scary it will be next."

Wang Dali is extremely confident. Domestic games all have this common problem. First, they create a scary atmosphere and make you nervous little by little.

But everything is just a false shot. As soon as you relax, a terrifying and exciting scene will appear.

It's like the scene where you go to the well. It's okay at first, but as soon as you open the door, there will be a scene of the bride being embarrassed.

It’s the same old cliché!

"Worship heaven and earth!"

Wang Dali said to himself: "I have to say that although this game has outdated routines, it has a full sense of atmosphere, and the action perspective of the worship hall is also normal."

"Second salute!" The master of ceremonies' voice sounded again.

Wang Dali bowed casually. He guessed that there might be a scary scene when the couple bowed to each other...such as the hijab suddenly falling to the ground.

Can!
When Wang Dali raised his head, the festive scene in front of him changed instantly.

The originally bright red word 'hi' and the pair instantly turned into white.

The two old men turned into two portraits sitting on the chairs, and the emcee turned into a lifelike paper man.

A sharp and harsh sound suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Fuck!"

Wang Dali was startled, sweating all over his body, and almost collapsed to the ground!
