Chapter 99 Mythology Series
Zhang Fei scratched his head and thought for a while, and came up with a huge plan.

Why not move the myths and stories of our country into the game?
The myths of the Hua Kingdom are relatively fragmented and primitive, and it is difficult to verify each other: in the "Shan Hai Jing·Da Nan Huang Jing", the explanation of the origin of the sun was born by the wife of the empress ("Xihe, the empress Wife, ten days old.").

But in the myth of Pangu’s opening of the sky, it is also said that Pangu’s eyes changed; "Shan Hai Jing" says that the place where the sun rises is called Dayan, which is a big mountain ("There is a mountain called Dayan, from which the sun and moon come out"), but "Huainan" "Zi Tianwen Xun" also said that the place where the sun rises is called Yanggu.

If you add the stories of Kua Fu chasing the sun and Hou Yi shooting the sun, you can find that the stories are not strongly related, and it is difficult to justify themselves like in Greek mythology. Basically, there is a saying in a book, and there is no one now. unified source.

But if you add some "bold assumptions" and brain holes, it is not impossible to create a logically complete and self-justifying myth.

Since Pangu opened the sky, "the king of Pangu, with the head of a dragon and the body of a snake, blows for wind and rain, blows for thunder and lightning, opens his eyes for day, and closes his eyes for night."Then he opened up the chaotic world, one zhang every day, until he opened up the world, his body turned into a bat, his eyes turned into the sun and the moon, his blood became rivers, his muscles turned into fields, and his skin turned into vegetation.

In the creation era when Nuwa created man and mended the sky, a battle between the water god Gonggong and the fire god Zhurong caused the rupture of Buzhou Mountain. Nuwa then found five-color stones, smelted them to fill the gap in the sky, and killed them again. A big tortoise cut off its legs and made a pillar to prop up the sky again.In the end, she also killed a black dragon that made waves, stopped the flood, extinguished the fire, and saved the people.

Then from the Three Emperors to the Five Emperors, the changes of theocracy, the famous battle of Zhuolu between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou from Jiuli, the two sides almost went out in full force, and the female demon, Yinglong, Xuanniao, Kui, and Fengshi Yubo appeared one by one , played wonderfully.

These are all things that can be used as game materials, and after that, the Conferred Gods List, Jujiao and Explained Teachings fought fiercely, competing for the authority of the Conferred Gods, Journey to the West, Monkey King held two watermelon knives, and chopped from Nantianmen to Penglai East Road. .After cutting back and forth for three days and three nights, blood flowed like a river.But he just went up and down with the knife in his hand and down with the knife in his hand, without blinking a glance.

There is such a game on the ps series host, the name is "God of War", and its background story is adapted from Greek mythology.

The protagonist Kui Ye, from being used by God, resisting, and finally self-sacrifice in order to keep hope.

The grand scene, highly interactive passages with the scene, refreshing action experience, QTE combined with cinematic expression techniques, and shocking music have gained a large number of fans.

The most important thing is the plot of the game. The excellent secondary creation of the familiar Greek mythology has undoubtedly greatly improved the audience of the game, and at the same time successfully portrayed the image of a real man with flesh and blood like Kui Ye.

In Greek mythology, there is an insurmountable gap between humans and gods, although gods have the same emotions, jealousy and vanity as humans.

But God will always be God and will live and die forever, high above.People will always be people and they will be manipulated, obediently obeying orders.So generally speaking, the subject of Greek mythology is God.

In a word, Greek mythology is the history of gods and gods stumbling each other.

Contrary to Greek mythology, there is no insurmountable gap between humans and gods in Chinese mythology. Ordinary people can become gods after thousands of generations of practice, and gods will be demoted to mortals if they make mistakes.In general, the subject of Chinese mythology is man.

In a word, Chinese mythology is the history of the arduous struggle between man and nature.

If the myths of our country are adapted into games, a complete mythology system can be formed from the beginning of Pangu and the end of Journey to the West, thus creating a single-player game series.

Just like the current prehistoric novels, from Hongjun's preaching, Pangu opening up the sky, Lich war, Nuwa making man, Three Emperors and Five Emperors and other prehistoric wars to the battle of conferring gods, the battle between Buddhism and Taoism.The prehistoric background usually arouses readers' interest in reading novels. Due to lack of understanding of that era, they are full of fantasies about it. Therefore, writers grasp this characteristic of readers and continue to create related novels.

Zhang Fei is like this. He entered the pit from "Buddha Is the Way" and has been out of control ever since. He is full of curiosity and fantasies about that mysterious and magnificent world.

The same is true for games, and compared to novels, games have a stronger sense of substitution, and the rigor of the story is not so high, unlike novels that follow strict level settings, otherwise the writing will collapse if you are not careful.

Because if it is made into a series of games, the protagonist of each game can be different, each game is a complete story, and some elements of it are used to connect the entire series together to form a complete theme.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, Zhang Fei stood up involuntarily, and walked back and forth quickly in the room.

If you really want to implement this plan, then start with Havoc in Heaven.

First, "Journey to the West", as one of my country's four major masterpieces, is extremely well-known, as can be seen from the TV series that are shown back and forth every summer vacation.Moreover, Havoc in Heaven, as a very important plot in it, is deeply loved by people.

Second, as the last part of the preliminarily set mythology system, Journey to the West plays a very important role in the entire series, playing a foreshadowing role.

Third, the plot of Havoc in Heaven has grand scenes and fierce fighting, which is very suitable for other adaptations. As long as the quality of the work is excellent, it will definitely attract people's attention.

It starts with the havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and then slowly traces back to the origin, the battle of the gods, the battle between the emperor and Chi You, and then to the prehistoric era, when the heavens and the earth were first opened, the saints fought for the front, and the demons danced wildly. This story is told in flashback.

And there are too many things that can be expanded. Kuafu chasing the sun, Jingwei filling the sea, Houyi shooting the sun, Dayu controlling the water, these stories can all be added to the game, so that people can also play the game during the game. Learn about these ancient myths and legends.

All kinds of strange beasts in Shan Hai Jing can be reproduced in the game one by one.

The rivers and seas are overturned, the five mountains are overthrown, and the scenes of all kinds of gods fighting skills must be extremely magnificent and unimaginable.

The last scene in the movie "Journey to the West" where Shakyamuni overlooks the earth shocked countless people, but that scene was actually an imitation of a game in the island country called "Asura's Wrath".

After the game is completed, the scene will definitely be more shocking and magnificent than that.
