Game Design: Is that okay, CaiGou?

Chapter 322: Resident Evil: The culprit? Is there mold involved? (Subscribe)
The flow of people at the opening ceremony was divided into two.

Most of the players at the scene had a clear goal and followed the mountain road straight to the [Hu Baoyi] game exhibition hall on Taiping Road at the top of the mountain.

The player has only one thought in his mind at this moment -

A gaming cabin with a sense of community? I want to see what this is all about!
Another small number of players, seeing that there were too many players rushing to the top of the mountain and they had no chance to experience the game at all, simply decided not to be the first to try it out and instead went to the offline exhibition halls of other game manufacturers to experience different games.

Among these live audiences, there is also a small special group of people, namely the game’s self-media team.

play games?
Visiting an exhibition?
These are not the top priorities. Their top priority now is to quickly produce a press release or shoot a video to grab the attention of the Beacon Fire 3 press conference.

Thus, an extremely surprising scene appeared in front of the audience. In front of the opening ceremony stage, all the game media teams were either sitting on the ground preparing press releases or shooting videos in front of the camera.

Precisely because these gaming self-media are so powerful, the Fenghuo-3 overall gaming cabin quickly became a hot topic on Weibo and a hot topic in the entire gaming circle.

The first hot search of the Travel Cup this year was successfully launched, and the subsequent response and chain reaction it brings will be explosive.

Not long after, the anchor group rushed towards the [Hu Baoyi] exhibition hall, and finally arrived at the exhibition hall on the top of the mountain. At this moment, the [Hu Baoyi Exhibition Hall] was already filled with players and netizens who came to visit.

The Fenghuo-3 virtual gaming cabin was like a black hole, firmly attracting the attention of all players present.

Its appearance combines the essence of future technology and classical aesthetics, like an exquisite work of art that makes people fall in love with it at first sight.

The overall color of the Fenghuo No. 3 gaming cabin is a deep night sky blue, as if it can swallow all the light, but there are twinkling stars on the edge, like an inverted Milky Way, dazzling and brilliant.

On the top of the cabin, a huge transparent crystal protrudes like an eyeball. This is the "visual center" of Fenghuo-3.

It can not only capture the player's eye movements, but also adjust the brightness and contrast of the game screen in real time according to the player's pupil changes, providing players with the most comfortable visual experience.

On the side of the cabin, a pair of wing-like airfoil structures unfold, which is the "sound field diffuser" of the Fenghuo-3.

They can accurately locate the source of sound based on the player's position and movement trajectory, and create a three-dimensional surround sound experience.

[Hu Baoyi] In the exhibition hall, there were more than 20 staff members arranged by Taipingdao, who were explaining this epoch-making gaming equipment with professional words next to the Fenghuo-3 full-body gaming cabin. Exclamations of players could be heard from time to time.

"Fuck, this is Beacon No. 3?"

"Is it so sci-fi and futuristic? Isn't it too cool?"

"I really want to play, how long will the queue be?"

"Is Fenghuo III now available in the Taipingdao game store?"

"Tietie, I have a little money, I want to buy a Fenghuo 3, I love to tell the truth!"

Outside the exhibition hall, the anchor group looked at each other, and helplessness was reflected in everyone’s eyes.

"Teacher Piao, I told you to run, run, but look, there's no fun anymore, right?" Boss Yin lamented when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Ya'er? Is it my fault that I run slowly?" Teacher Piao was helpless: "I want to run fast, but can I run fast?"

Bo Shen pouted: "I want to play, I really want to play... Bo Bo is unhappy..."

"Alas..." Liu Liu also sighed: "The host team of the Journey Cup has had a bad start."

Everyone sat on the bench outside the exhibition hall, looking pitifully at the Fenghuo-3 full-body gaming cabin in the exhibition hall. More than half an hour later, Cai Gou finally arrived at the Hu Baoyi exhibition hall in the competition vehicle.

Cai Gou got out of the car and saw the anchor group sighing and looking hopeless. He couldn't help but walk up to them and asked curiously, "Why are you all so sad?"

When the anchors saw Cai Gou coming, they gathered around him as if he were their savior and started to complain to him.

After listening for a while, Cai Gou understood what was going on. It turned out that the host team was not as good as the young players and came too late, so there were no seats left for the experience of Fenghuo No. 3.

Cai Gou curled his lips into a smile and said, "That's easy, come with me."

Cai Gou led the way, and the anchors followed closely when they heard that there was something interesting going on.

As the largest game exhibition hall in this Journey Cup, [Hu Baoyi] has a total of 108 seats for experiencing the Fenghuo-3 holistic game cabin.

One hundred experience seats are open to everyone, but each person can only experience it for half an hour.

In addition, there are eight experience seats that are not open to the public. They are only open to game anchors or evaluation agencies, and there is no limit on the experience time.

Cai Gou took them to the innermost partition room of the exhibition hall, pointed at the eight Fenghuo-3 holistic gaming pods in front of them, and said:

"There are still eight seats here, and there is no time limit. However, the only difference from outside is that the game process here will be broadcast live on the big screen outside the exhibition hall. Please feel free to play as you please. I wish you all a happy game."

Liu Peijia quickly replied, "General, can I ask you what kind of horror game is Taiping Dao bringing to the Journey Cup this time?"

Cai Gou stood still and said, "This horror game is called Resident Evil Village."

"So is this Resident Evil Village scary?" Bobo asked.

"Hey, I'm not in a position to reveal too much about this, but I promise that Resident Evil Village will give you an unforgettable experience."

Cai Gou then briefly introduced the game and pointed outside the exhibition hall and said, "No matter how much we talk about it, it's better to experience it for ourselves. You guys play first, and I'll go and greet the fans outside."

Teacher Ma nodded hurriedly: "Hey, hey, General, you are busy, we can do it ourselves."

This group of game anchors, whether they are top-tier or first- and second-tier anchors, all know the importance of General Tiangong.

After all these years of interactions, many anchors have become friends with Cai Gou, so naturally there are not too many overt courtesies between the two sides.

After Cai Gou left the partition room, the anchors hurriedly looked through their own fool-proof game cabin manuals. After becoming familiar with the operations, they logged into their respective live broadcast accounts.

In this way, not only can their gaming process be broadcast in the exhibition hall, but it can also be broadcast in real time in their respective live broadcast rooms.

After the anchor team made preparations before the game, they went into their respective Fenghuo-3 full-body gaming cabins one after another.

Liu Peijia was the most excited. As a typical timid but playful person, he remained in a highly excited state until the cabin door was closed.

When the inert gas was slowly injected into the cabin, he relaxed his tense nerves, closed his eyes, and entered the game world.

Liu Peijia closed his eyes, and his whole body seemed to be weightless, falling continuously.

The thoughts in his mind seemed to sink into the endless dark seabed. The whole world was pitch dark and it seemed as if he was the only one left in the world.

At this moment, a long sigh sounded like thunder in Liu Peijia's ears, scaring him.

Before he could come to his senses, he heard a middle-aged man speaking in a tone that sounded experienced.

【All right……】

Where should I start?

As soon as the words fell, in front of Liu Peiqia, it was as if a huge tomato was suddenly crushed and exploded, splashing blood and flesh all over the screen.

"what--"

"Fuck! What the hell?!"

The sudden scene scared Liu Peiqia so much that she screamed loudly.

When the flesh and blood faded, the scene changed.

Liu Peijia opened his eyes again and found himself sitting in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with both hands, driving a car in a first-person perspective, on a muddy road in the countryside.

"Damn it? The old thief has learned bad things. This is how you play, right? Scare people at the beginning? You even said the game should start!" Liu Peijia was holding the steering wheel. The first thing he did when he came to his senses was to curse the old thief for being a bad person.

As the vehicle slowly moved forward, the narration continued to tell him the unknown story of the Resident Evil.

【my name?】

【Ethan...Ethan Winters.】

【It has been three years since the Baker family incident.】

[I'm... I'm looking for my missing wife. I received an email from her.]

[The email asked me to pick her up, so I went to Louisiana, the middle of nowhere.]

[I found Mia locked in a dark basement. She was not normal at that time and attacked me like a wild animal.]

【Later I discovered she was infected with a special kind of mold! 】

[I searched all over that house for antidotes, vaccines, and the like.]

[The people living there have been infected, and they have completely lost their humanity. ]

[The source of the infection was a biological weapon that looked like a little girl. Her name was Evelyn.]

【I fought against the hopeless family and cured Mia with the serum.】

[Later, Chris Redfield and his soldiers showed up and rescued both of us.]

[Is this enough? ]

[I, I really don’t want to talk about those things anymore. ]

As the narration continued, many fragments of memories kept flashing through Liu Peiqia's mind.

In the black and white memories——

The beautiful wife screamed hysterically for help.

A manor stands in a forest covered with thorns and weeds.

A wife who has fallen into madness and has lost her humanity, and residents who have been infected and have lost their humanity.

The biological weapon little girl Evelyn and the mold-infected wife Mia.

A madly wriggling mass of flesh and blood, a hysterical and fatal battle.

When all the memories faded away like smoke, the scene changed instantly. In the last second, I was driving a car on a country road, and in the next second, I was standing in a quiet and gloomy forest.

After a long while, Liu Peijia came back to his senses, sweating profusely, and found himself standing on the ground covered with dead leaves.

In front of him was a hardcover book with a golden border, showing two lines of strange text. The text gradually twisted and turned into Chinese.

【Village Shadow】

【Whether to turn on】

"call……"

Liu Peijia let out a long sigh. With the help of the overall sense of the Fenghuo No. 3 gaming cabin, the various memories that had previously emerged in his mind seemed like his own experiences.

Liu Peijia could even smell the smell of blood at the tip of his nose, his hands even felt like they were holding a steering wheel, and his back felt a little cold.

The memory fragments of just a few minutes were far more mentally stimulating than many horror games.

Because with the support of the Fenghuo-3 holistic gaming cabin, all of this is simply too real.

"I'm sorry..."

Liu Peijia wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said sarcastically, "You're going to attack me mentally right from the start, right?"

"It's so exciting, but in the end, you tell me it's just a promotional video for the previous episode."

He looked around and consoled himself: "Fortunately, fortunately, I was so scared and trembling just now that no one noticed me..."

"No, wait!"

Liu Peijia suddenly realized that the Fenghuo-3 overall sense game cabin he was in was specially prepared for anchors.

Not only was the gaming process synchronized on the display screen in the exhibition hall, he also started a live broadcast.

so?
Could everyone see how ugly I looked just now?

isn't it?
Liu Peijia quickly called out the barrage display on the UI interface, only to see that the barrage of comments from netizens were swiping the screen like crazy.

"Infected with mold? Is there a "mold" thing in this?"

"Hahahaha, this is so funny, Eggplant is really a novice and a playful person, who was the one who yelled 'wow' just now?"

"Eggplant, we came out of swords and guns, we can't lose face!"

"Liu Peijia: Where did you see me pissing myself? If you don't understand, please don't say anything nonsense, okay? Game anchors have a hard time..."

"This synopsis is so epic. Look at the name of this game, Resident Evil Village. The suffix "village" indicates this is a game, but Resident Evil should be a big theme, which means this is likely to be a series of games."

"Ah? So, the flashback story we just experienced is very likely the prequel to Resident Evil?"

"Well... I can only say that this possibility cannot be ruled out."

“This collective experience is absolutely amazing, and it is several levels higher than the taste synchronization of a single player.”

This was the first time to experience the Fenghuo-3 full-body gaming cabin, and his performance was watched by more than 100,000 online viewers in the live broadcast room.

But only a small number of players are mocking themselves, and most players are still focusing on the Resident Evil Village and Beacon 3 holistic game cabins themselves.

"This overall experience is so strong. I couldn't adapt to it just now, but now I feel like I'm in great shape. Let me see what the first horror game produced by Taipingdao is all about."

Liu Peijia resolutely clicked [Open].

A cold wind blew, and the leaves on the ground were blown into the air. The hard-cover books with gold borders on the ground were slowly opened by the cold wind.

The hardcover book with gold borders was opened by invisible hands, and each page of the book was made of paper with different hollow shapes.

As the cold wind blew, a paper-cut jungle world gradually took shape.

Before Liu Peiqia could react, the jungle was like a black hole, with an irresistible suction force, sucking Liu Peiqia's body into it and into the world of the story told by the narrator.

Liu Peijia's miserable cry echoed in the live broadcast room, with a deep echo like a hollow valley.

"Ah! Don't you give me some time to react? I'm not mentally prepared yet!"

"I hate you, old thief—I hate you—hate you—you!"
