Game Design: Is that okay, CaiGou?

Chapter 288: Pelican Town Street Walker: If there are fish, I won’t fish, I will just stroll, eh, just play (please subscribe)
Before fishing——

Isn’t this fishing just a matter of skill? Look, brother, let me show you my skills.

After fishing——

Whoever likes to catch this fish in Stardew Valley can catch it! I couldn't catch any fish anyway.

The ultimate face change.

Extremely bad mouth.

The ultimate enjoyment.

Stardew Valley's fishing system single-handedly allowed Wang Laoju, a self-proclaimed technical streamer, to break through the defense on the spot.

But this scene made the cyber fisherman even more curious.

difficult?
That’s right if it’s difficult!
Who can fish if it’s not difficult?
Why haven’t our cyber fishing experts seen such strong winds and waves?

Once the physical strength is exhausted, even if there is extra time, the above operations cannot be performed and can only be wasted.

[Start casting: If you want to continue mining, you need to build a furnace]

"Haha... It's impossible to fish. It's impossible to fish in this life. I don't know how to do business. I can only maintain my life by farming."

Stardew Valley is a casual farming management game. If you can't fish, you can still farm.

When I woke up the next day, it was raining heavily outside. As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw Clint standing in front of my house and said, "Ah... Hi, morning!"

joke!

only……

I don’t have many farewells, I just have a lot of time. Watch me make you angry!
Adhering to the belief that there is me but no liver, and there is liver but no self.

A large number of fishing guys who teach cyber fishing directly quit the live broadcast room and buy Stardew Valley, vowing to prove that no fishing game can stump us cyber fishing guys.

"The first task hasn't been completed yet, here comes another one." Wang Laoju complained as she looked at the pouring rain: "It's raining heavily, even watering is skipped. I don't know what to do in this game."

Faced with water friends' suggestion to raise funds by fishing and selling fish, Wang Laoju delivered an inspiring speech:

However, because Stardew Valley is a stand-alone game, you can pause the game time by opening your backpack, organizing storage boxes, purchasing goods and other operations, so a day in the game and in the real world generally lasts more than 14 minutes.

It is under the constraints of time and physical strength that the addictive characteristics of Stardew Valley will gradually emerge.

Fortunately, the time came soon [Spring 5th]. Wang Laoju got up early in the morning and went out. She found that the parsnips in the cultivated land were ripe, and she hurriedly picked them.

Clint continued: "You can use the furnace to melt metal rods. These metal rods can be used to forge, build, and upgrade tools."

With this busy schedule, Wang Laoju transformed herself into a young man with no physical strength, time, or money. She could only go back to the house to sleep and enter the next day.

[Advanced: As your experience increases, you will find new recipes that can be used to increase income and improve life. For example, a scarecrow can prevent crows from eating your precious crops]

[Task requirement: Build a furnace]

[Raising animals: The local carpenter Robin lives in the north of the town. As long as you give her enough raw materials and money, she will build new buildings on your farm for you. You need to ask her to help you build chicken coops and livestock. Raising animals in sheds】

Isn’t it just that the funds are withdrawn slower?
It's not a big deal.

Farming, watering, sowing, gathering, fishing, mining and other operations will consume physical strength.

To gain extra physical strength, players can eat crops and collections, eat fish to replenish physical strength, or buy various finished foods in bars to replenish physical strength.

Wang Laoju can only wander around, digging rocks, cutting down trees, clearing weeds, cleaning the farm, and wandering around Pelican Town.

The log will be updated immediately after Clint leaves.

We don’t even take the Russian fishing master seriously!
Are you afraid of a mere pixel-style fishing game?

[Task reward: 100 gold coins]

[Task requirements: Sow and harvest parsnips]

A day in Stardew Valley starts at six in the morning and ends at two in the morning. A day in the game world is 14 minutes in the real world.

"The mission is not difficult, but are these the main missions of the game?"

While picking, Wang Laoju cried bitterly: "Uuuuuuu, the funds can finally be withdrawn! Five days, do you know how I spent these five days?"

"I noticed that you have been chipping away at rocks to find ore. It's really cool. If you want to find as much ore as possible, you need a furnace. I happen to have an idle blueprint. Here, take it."

If you say this, it will be shameful for others to know!
Isn't it just a little Zhang (Xing) Ma (Lu) Zi (Gu)?
Deal with him!

Wang Laoju wandered around the map, greeting villagers, cleaning farms, cutting down trees, and clearing stones. In the process, she was lucky enough to get a copper mine.

"When you melt a certain amount of copper rods, you can consider asking me to upgrade a tool for you, and your work will become easier. Well, I'll go back and take my time."

In the game Stardew Valley, players are limited not only by the passage of time, but also by their physical strength.

Wang Laoju didn't hesitate and chose to let herself go.

[Task requirement: Build a chicken coop]

【Learn how to make a furnace】

Wang Laoju collected the mature crops and found that the log was updated.

[Task requirements: Reach level 1 of farming and build a scarecrow]

In just a few days, Wang Laoju not only lost a penny, but was still destitute, and became a veritable street kid in Pelican Town.

Wang Laoju smacked her lips and said: "If it is really a main line mission, then this game is a weak main line game, and the player has a lot of freedom."

nonsense!

Can it be smaller?

With the fishing rod in hand, Wang Laoju wasted a few days of fishing, which were all golden coins.

But that doesn't mean that the game can't be played like this.

After all, among the players, there are many war gods who have all other skills at full level and have zero fishing skills.

After the collection was completed, Wang Laoju walked to the mailbox nearby, opened it and checked the letter.

【I got some new items! 】

【Luxury fishing rod, you can put bait on it! 】

[You can use bait to make fish take the bait faster, welcome to buy! 】

【——Willy】

With lightning speed, Wang Laoju closed Willie's letter and shouted: "Hey, there are fish, but I won't catch them. I will just walk around. Hey, just play~"

A tone that deserves a beating.

An expression that deserves a beating.

Words that deserve a beating.

The water friends in the live broadcast room couldn't help laughing. In the mailbox, there was not only this letter, but also a second letter.

【Dear customers of "JOJA" Supermarket:】

[Our team members have cleared the landslide site, which was affected by our company's drilling activities. 】

[We must declare that our drilling activities are fully legal (in accordance with JOJA Company Amendment L61091) and protecting the local environment has always been our priority. 】

[We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused by this accident, and we sincerely thank our customers for their support and sponsorship! 】

【——Morris (Representative of JOJA Customer Satisfaction Department)】

what?
"JOJA" company?
Isn't this the company where the player resigned before?
Isn’t this a company that treats us like cattle?
Why does the ghost linger and appear again?
Oh……

You said a "JOJA" supermarket opened in Pelican Town?
That's okay...

It's strange that nothing happens...

"A letter came from "JOJA" very early in the morning. I don't know what it means."

Wang Laoju shook her head and said: "Forget it, leave him alone, let's go to Pierre's grocery store first and buy some seeds. By the way, we will sell all the parsnips to get the funds back."

Wang Laoju walked into Pelican Town excitedly, and before she could react, she went directly into the mandatory plot.

In the dilapidated community center, even the wall clock above the door has long stopped, and the exterior walls are covered with ivy, full of traces of history.

Mayor Lewis looked at the community center and sighed. He noticed Wang Laoju approaching and said hello: "Oh, hello..."

Wang Laoju walked up to Lewis, and the two fell into silence looking at the dilapidated community center. For a long time, Lewis sighed:
"It's so ugly. This is the Pelican Town Community Center, or the ruins of the community center. This used to be the pride of this town and often held various activities. Now... ugh, it's so embarrassing."

"Today's young people would rather sit in front of the TV all day and watch it than participate in community activities, but listen to me, even though I sound like an old fogy."

""JOJA" Coke Company has been trying to trick me into selling this center to them. They want to transform this place into a warehouse. Pelican Town really needs this money, but I always feel that I shouldn't just sell it like this. , maybe it’s because I’m too nostalgic..."

Speaking of this, Lewis looked at Wang Laoju and said: "Ah, by the way, if someone buys a membership to "JOJA" Coke, I will sell this place."

Hearing this, Wang Laoju patted her chest and promised: "Mayor, don't worry, even if I starve to death, die outside, jump from here, I won't be able to go to the "JOJA" supermarket to buy a seed. Let alone do anything. member!”

Lewis sighed, pushed open the dilapidated door, raised his hand and said, "Come in with me."

The two stepped into the community center. Lewis looked at the small buildings next to the hall with confusion and said:
"Huh? What is this? Vincent and Jas must have been here to play. It's shabbier than I remember."

At this moment, a green jelly-like monster appeared out of thin air in the lobby of the community center, which scared Wang Laoju.

But when Lewis looked back, the monster disappeared without a trace. Lewis asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Wang Laoju searched around, but found no trace of the monster. Lewis asked: "Did you see anything? Well... it's normal for mice to be here."

But just when Wang Laoju thought it was really just a mouse, the monster appeared from behind Lewis again, but it just flashed and then disappeared again, which frightened Wang Laoju greatly.

Seeing Wang Laoju's startled look, Lewis said: "Wang Laoju... I'm worried about you doing this. Listen, I'm going home, I need to have lunch."

"Hey, from now on, I won't lock this door. If you have time, you can come and catch the mice."

【really weird……】

[I will come back to continue exploring this building...]

The forced plot ends with Wang Laoju appearing at the door of the community center.

With a puzzled look on his face, he quickly walked into the community center and finally found a square scroll inscribed with mysterious runes in a house.

No...what's going on?
Aren’t you talking about casual farming and management games?
Why are there still traces of monsters?

Why is there still mysterious power?

"I rely on..."

Wang Laoju thought of the developer's message [Cyber ​​Cultivation, Boundless Magic Power] and said:

"This game won't really let us cultivate immortality in Stardew Valley, right? It doesn't make sense..."

In the live broadcast room, water friends speculated for a while.

But Monk Zhanger was also confused.

"Forget it, I can't figure it out anyway, let's buy seeds first."

Wang Laoju came to Pierre's store, bought seeds, returned to Ouhuang Farm, planted seeds, and watered the seeds. After a set of procedures, it was already evening, and Wang Laoju went back to the house and fell asleep.

When I woke up the next day and went out, I found a strange email in my mailbox.

[My sources tell me you've been hanging around the old community center. 】

【Why don't you come and visit me? 】

[I live in the stone tower to the west of Forest Lake. I may have some clues about your "rat infestation" problem. 】

[——Mage M. Rasmodes]

Good guy...

Are there even mages?
Do you really want me to become a cybernetic cultivator?
Wang Laoju became energetic and hurried to the stone tower according to the address given by the mage.

As soon as you walked into the stone tower, you could see a large pot steaming inside the house. Inside the pot was a viscous green liquid that looked disgusting.

The mage wearing a wizard's hat was sitting in front of a magic circle with a six-pointed star engraved on it, looking like a big boss.

I don't believe this scene, this battle, even if the mage doesn't know how to use magic.

The mage greeted: "Hey, come in, I am Rasmodes... the pursuer of arcana, the medium that connects reality and the supernatural, the master of the seven elements, the patron saint, you should understand."

"And you, Wang Laoju, I have foreseen your arrival a long time ago. Come, I want to show you something. Look at that!"

The mage waved his hand and directly summoned the monster Wang Laoju had seen yesterday, and said:

"You've seen it once, right? They call themselves Junimos. These mysterious elves... for some reason, refused to talk to me. I don't know why they moved into the community center, but you didn't Reasons to be afraid of them."

Wang Laoju felt relieved and explained the scroll she saw at the community center.

The mage nodded and said: "Huh? You found a golden scroll written in an unknown language? How interesting... You stay here, I want to take a look for myself, I will be back soon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mage teleported away directly, and then came back through the gate.

This one-hand operation directly shocked the water friends in the live broadcast room, and the barrage directly refreshed the screen. To sum up, it can be summed up in one sentence——

Old thief, what do you call this, a casual farming management game?

The mage explained: "I found the notes. The language is difficult for me to understand, but I can decipher it."

The mage made one operation and the notes gradually appeared.

Seeing this, Wang Laoju quickly stepped forward to check. When she discovered the contents of the note, she couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Fuck!"
