Chapter 383: The desire to survive of the employees of Nitiantang

“What qualities are required?”

Zhou Yang thought about it, and then said seriously: "I think first of all, you need to have excellent psychological quality, to be able to remain calm even when facing a huge challenge, and to be able to withstand all kinds of blows.

“Secondly, you need to have good operating skills to pass the various challenging levels in the game and win the favor of the characters.

“Finally, you need to have good self-control and be tolerant most of the time, and not get defensive and yell at people.

“I believe that if players can possess these three valuable qualities, they will be able to play almost all of Against the Heaven’s games, whether new or old.”

Zhang Qifeng was stunned for a moment: "Oh... do dating games also need these?
"Oh, I see. What this means is that in the official version of Tokiwa Dream, the difficulty of the mini-games played with the game characters will be greatly increased, right?"

He was a little confused at first, because the points Zhou Yang mentioned were obviously discussing action games?

Even the two requirements of excellent psychological quality and good self-cultivation are a bit too high for action games.

But so far, the content shown in the "Heartbeat Dreamland" demo is at most playing beach volleyball and controlling a girl to run a few steps in the swimming pool to play a big level.

Is there any operation? There is still some.

Take the big level in the swimming pool for example. The player has to control the joystick very well and press specific keys at specific times, otherwise the girl will not be able to pass and will eventually fall into the water.

Of course, many players don’t care whether the girl falls into the water or not, and they even expect the girl to fall into the water at a certain stage.

But no matter what, if you want to get high scores in this section, it does require certain operations.

Is this game difficult to operate? Not really. It is still far behind the high-difficulty action games like Ascension.

It's impossible that some action game elements were added to the game as Lecturer Ding said during the live broadcast, right?

The most that can be said is that the difficulty of these mini-games has been increased in the official version of the game. Or can it be said that this is the most operational love simulation game in history?
Zhang Qifeng quickly made the record again.

"Then the next question is, what do you think is the main difference between the official version of the game and the "Heartbeat Dreamland" demo that players are currently playing?"

Zhou Yang hesitated for a moment: "Well...

“In general, I think the official version of the game will mainly show the other side of the main characters in the game, which is used to improve their personalities and give players an unexpected heart-warming feeling.”

Zhang Qifeng thought for a moment and said, "That is to say, in the official version of the game, players will get an extra, huge surprise?"

Zhou Yang coughed twice: "Whether it will be a surprise or not depends on the individual, but generally speaking, it shouldn't be a problem to achieve half of this goal."

Zhang Qifeng's pen paused for a moment.

Halfway achieved?
Does that mean half of the surprise is achieved?
That doesn't seem so bad.

After looking at the contents recorded in his notebook, Zhang Qifeng felt that the interview was almost over.

It has to be said that Zhou Yang was quite tight-lipped. Zhang Qifeng felt that he had asked a lot of questions and that the other party had answered a lot of questions, but when he really looked back, he found that the core and essence of the problem were basically not touched upon.

No details about the official version of "Heartbeat Dream" have been revealed.

But this is understandable, as new games must be kept secret before they go online!

The employees of Nitiantang seem to have a strong sense of confidentiality and never say anything that shouldn't be said. It is not known whether this sense of confidentiality is innate or whether it has been uniformly trained within the company.

However, judging from the content of the interview so far, it should be more than enough to produce an article. "Okay, then as the interview is coming to an end, I would like to ask you one last question."

Zhang Qifeng paused for a moment and said, "This is just a private conversation. It won't be written into the interview transcript. It's just my personal curiosity.

"Of course you can choose not to answer."

Zhou Yang nodded: "It's okay, just ask."

Zhang Qifeng said curiously, "I noticed that the employees of Nitiantang don't seem to like showing up in public. You don't accept video interviews, and you even want your names not to appear.

“Is this a little too low-key?

"You know, the identity of 'star producer' can actually gather a lot of fans online, especially under the premise that the game Against the Heaven has so many fans. Whoever shows up first will be the first to reap these dividends.

“Besides, it seems that the employees of Nitiantang generally have a good sense of confidentiality?
"Unlike other game companies and film and television companies, there are always some "leakage" situations.

"Of course, this is good, as it represents the professionalism of the gaming company. After all, confidentiality is also a reflection of the company's management capabilities.

“I’m just curious. After all, Against Heaven is a new company. Although it is gaining momentum, it is not as good as those large-scale game companies with several years or even more than ten years of history. It may be slightly lacking in formality.

"How did Nitiantang do this? Did Mr. Gu specifically emphasize the confidentiality clause? Or is there some other reason?"

Zhou Yang laughed: "Oh, you are talking about this.

“I’m naturally low-key, isn’t that okay?
"Haha, I'm just kidding. If I have to say... it's probably because of the most instinctive 'desire to survive', right?

"After all, the success of Against the Heaven game is accidental, it is all the gift of bugs. If you take advantage of others, you may be punished.

"I can't bear that kind of punishment."

These words almost confused Zhang Qifeng.

What the hell, the desire to survive? Maybe greed for merit will bring retribution?

Still can't bear the punishment from God? ?

My goodness, although I know that some game companies believe in metaphysics, they shouldn’t believe in it to this extent!

It can be seen that Against the Heaven is indeed somewhat special, completely different from other game companies. Perhaps the characteristics of Against the Heaven game are related to the special features of this company?

"Okay, that's it for today's interview. Thank you very much for accepting the interview. I hope there will be more interview opportunities in the future!"

Zhang Qifeng stood up and shook hands with Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang smiled noncommittally: "No need to thank me, I will be very grateful if you don't get so angry that you block our company."

Zhang Qifeng was a little surprised: "How could that be? We are a gaming media with professional ethics. No matter what happens, we will never blacklist the interviewee.

"Besides, the probability of such a thing happening is very low, right? What on earth could your company do to anger the heavens and the people? You can't make the players so angry that you would attack a gaming media like us, right? That's not realistic."

Zhou Yang chuckled: "I hope so."
