Restart the Gaming Era

Guanghua City, a low-light gaming experience store.

Tang Ying wore a mask, but still pressed his peaked cap, for fear of being recognized by passers-by.

Tian Yuan patted Tang Ying's shoulder from behind: "Sister, what do you mean by this costume? Is there an idol bag?"

Tang Ying was taken aback, and it was Tian Yuan who was slightly relieved to see: "What idol baggage is, it's not because you chose the place to meet here."

Although Tang Ying's popularity and popularity have been rising since she became the pillar of the Weak Live broadcast, she is now at the apex of her live broadcast career, but her influence is still far from those of real stars.

A more obvious gap is that walking on the street, there should not be too many people who recognize her, which is very different from those big stars who are tracked by paparazzi 24 hours.

But if it is in some special places, it will be completely different, such as ... the shimmering game experience shop.

Most of the players who come to this experience shop are players in the low light studio games. It is a matter of minutes to recognize Tang Ying.

Therefore, Tang Yingcai's peaked cap and mask completely covered his face.

"Isn't it good shopping, why did I just go to the game experience store door?" Tang Ying looked helplessly at the crowd of players at the experience store door.

Tian Yuan smiled "Hey": "Sister, don't you know?" Attack on Titan "will release a trial version today, of course, to experience it."

"Oh ..." Tang Ying said he had no fluctuations in his heart, and even wanted to laugh.

Attack on Titan? Already experienced it!

As a low-light live platform pillar, a dedicated tester, Tang Ying has a dedicated internal account on his GS1, which can directly update the game in development. The game "Attack on the Giant" started with a demo, Already experienced.

As for the results of the experience ...

Of course it is very unoptimistic.

So I heard that Tian Yuan came to the experience store for this purpose. Tang Ying silently prayed for her in the heart, and at the same time, she followed Tian Yuan into the experience store in a mentality of watching the liveliness.

Guanghua's Weiguang Game Experience Store is currently one of the largest experience stores, and experience stores of this size are being opened almost every month.

As the volume of Weiguang Mutual Entertainment becomes larger and larger, similar hardware + game experience stores can be opened to major cities around the world, and some Western cities are naturally planned.

Although it is the first time to open the trial of "Attack on Titan", there are not many players in the console area. Most of the players are waiting in line behind the UV1 simulator, waiting to experience "Speeding Car".

As for the reason, it goes without saying. One is suffering and the other is cool. The choice of most players is so real.

Tang Ying and Tian Yuan came to the host area and found that the layout had been made in advance to publicize the "Attack Giant" experience.

Various promotional materials are hung on both sides of the host area, including the "wing of liberty" banner, large posters and some hand-made items.

Even a part of the GS1 equipment in the mainframe area has been replaced with the "Attack on Titan" link, the color and pattern are moving closer to the "Attack on Titan" investigation team uniform style.

There are not many players queuing in the host area, but their faces are filled with happiness and expectant smiles.

"Wow, these people are abnormal." Tang Ying muttered quietly.

She can see some kind of expectation in the eager eyes of these people, that is the expectation of "death" and "suffering"!

Tian Yuan poked her head out and looked at the game screen that the player in front tried.

"Oh!"

A figure flew past.

"Oh!"

A figure flew over.

"Slap."

The flying figures were slapped on the ground by the giant, and a huge, red "dead" character appeared on the screen.

"Oh!"

The player who was shot dead did not care, and continued to start from scratch with interest.

Tang Ying couldn't help but secretly sigh: "Sure enough, the people who came here are all the severely addicted patients in" The Wolf ", all of them are shaking!"

If it was another game, the players would have slammed the handlebar and left in a crazy way, but here, the players are all shining with bright lights in their eyes, with a look of "Hurry me up" look forward.

Of course, this description is not very accurate. To be more precise, it should be an expression that "the difficulty of this game is really good and worth studying".

The **** of some handicapped players is a paradise for **** players who like to challenge themselves.

Soon Tian Yuan arrived.

Pick up the handle to reset the game to the state it was just starting.

"That day, humans finally remembered the horror dominated by giants ... and the humiliation imprisoned in bird cages ..."

With a deep and sad background melody, an impressive picture appeared on the screen.

On the 50-meter-high wall, white smoke was floating. A super-giant with no skin and naked muscle tissue appeared behind the wall, staring at everything inside the wall, and his eyes were filled with despair.

The camera passes over the bustling crowd, over the buildings in the small town inside the wall, over the 50-meter-high wall like a mountain, over the giant who grabs the wall and raises his leg to kick, and comes to the blue sky, and quickly changes. For a black screen.

"Cheer up! If you do n’t even use the three-dimensional motorized device, you are not even qualified to serve as a giant food!"

The instructor's roar sounded in his ears, and the picture lit up again. Allen flew past the camera using a three-dimensional motorized device.

Obviously, the city wall and the giant giant that I saw just now are all memories in Alan's mind, and at this time, he is conducting the assessment task of the training regiment.

As two different art carriers, the narrative rhythms of games and animation are slightly different. As a game, Attack on Titan must give players access to the combat system and basic gameplay at the beginning of the game, and cannot arbitrarily add too many cutscenes and real-time calculations in the early stages of the game.

Fighting, exploring, and decrypting are all the core fun of the game. Although the plot is also one of the highlights of the game, it must be skillfully interspersed with the previous methods, otherwise the player will feel impatient.

Therefore, the first act of the game allows players to experience the unique fighting system of "Attack on Titan", and the order of the plot is adjusted to a certain extent.

According to the prompts on the screen, Tian Yuan continued to perform corresponding operations, using a three-dimensional motorized device to continuously move, replacing gas tanks and blades, and training on the operation of attacking giants.

Because it is training, it is not the real giants that are encountered in the battle, but the giant wooden signs standing one by one.

These wooden cards cannot counterattack, but they can simulate the effects of the giant's sudden appearance, and test whether the soldiers have mastered the attack method and timing.

The first wooden card bounced from the ground seems to be a general guideline content. The system will guide the player through a series of processes including shooting iron wire, surrounding, sprinting, smashing, and detaching. Each step will enter the bullet time. Corresponding keys will be prompted on the screen, allowing players to clearly grasp the flow of each step.

When chopping, there will be an auxiliary ring similar to a sound game, and the ring will continue to shrink. When the ring is shrunk to a specific position, pressing the attack key will produce a perfect chopping effect.

Of course, this is just regular training content, and there is no such hint in real combat.

After killing the first goal, the game entered a free training session.

In the training field full of tall trees, players need to control Alan to use the three-dimensional maneuvering device to continuously move and kill the giant wooden sign that suddenly rises from the ground to get points.

At the same time, players should also pay attention to their gas and blade conditions. Once they consume more, they must find nearby supply soldiers to get supplies.

The other members of the training corps participated in this competition in the form of AI. Their abilities are basically similar to the settings in the game. A few outstanding students such as Sanya will have strong fighting power and high AI, so their results are natural. Will have a clear advantage over others.

"This combat system is really interesting!"

"And it doesn't seem to be that difficult."

Tian Yuan controlled Allen to fly around with a three-dimensional maneuvering device, beating and killing "giants" one after another, and gained an unprecedented satisfaction.

Well, it was like when you were playing "The Wolf", when you first got a weapon, you slashed the mobs.

It has to be said that using a three-dimensional maneuvering device to fly fast in the air has a unique thrill. It is different from the "flying" experience of general games, and has a more sense of rhythm, and at the same time, the controllability is not bad.

This experience is a bit like a Spider-Man game, of course, players in this world have not played it.

In the process of using the three-dimensional motorized device, the iron wire is shot and pulled up quickly, and then glides through the air for a period of time by inertia, and the iron wire is shot again when it falls. The movement will always follow this relaxed rhythm, so that the player will not be confused by the crazy acceleration.

In battle, both strategies and skills are used: players need to choose the body parts of the giant to hook, avoid the giant's attack by rotating, or cut off the joints of the hands and feet to weaken the action of the giant. Press the attack button at the right time.

Regardless of whether it is moving or fighting, the tempo is very good. This fighting mode does not make the player feel tired, but it always allows the player to maintain a high degree of attention and a strong enthusiasm for the game.

"Strange, I thought it was a suffering game." Tian Yuan muttered softly, and the elder brother next to him tried to glance at this little girl who didn't know the heights and heights, but didn't speak.

During the training, Allen played by Tian Yuan and other trainers will have some plot interaction.

For example, when you want to attack a giant, you are suddenly rushed out and robbed by another training soldier. At this time, there will be a story dialogue, and the other person's words will also conform to the character of the character.

Tian Yuan doesn't know these people yet, but will get familiar with them soon.

After the training content, entered a cut scene.

"This is ... a cinematic approach." Tian Yuan still knows these things.

Film-based games are also a relatively novel type of game, which mainly tells the story of the game through film-based means.

In the past, the story of the game was limited by the skills of the device and the content of the game. It was often stiff. For example, in some games, a large number of avatars + dialog boxes were used to express the story dialogue, supplemented by a small number of character model actions, It's dubbing.

The advantage of this approach is less investment, while the disadvantage is unreal.

The film-based game is to move the game closer to the direction of the movie as much as possible, including the action, language, expression, and details of the character, including the full screen, the storytelling, the BGM that matches the plot, the transition of the scene, etc. , All required by the standards of the film.

Zhong Ming's previous "Mysterious Sea" is one of the best. Even when the player is playing the game, UI information rarely appears on the screen. The player's actual game screen and the real-time calculation of the plot are perfectly connected. Let players have an immersive gaming experience.

"Attack on the Giant" also uses this method. After the training, the transition will connect the second time the city wall is breached and the soldiers will fight the giant for the first time ~ www.readwn.com ~ At the same time, it will play a background and The role of character introduction, the entire process will be presented in a film-based manner, in addition to the player to perform some mobile operations, most of the plot content is displayed through the film-like lens.

Unlike the original game of Attack on Titan, this version produced by Zhong Ming will show the actions and expressions of each character in great detail, and their lines will be filled in.

For example, some trainers will be excited to think about life after entering the gendarmerie, some will be annoyed because of poor performance in exams and failing to enter the top ten, and some will not understand what they are thinking about without saying a word.

At the same time, all the discussions in the original work have been reproduced. For example, 4 years ago, in order to regain territory, 20% of the population launched an attack on the giant. As a result, most people had no confidence in defeating the giant.

So far, the game has implanted many questions in Tian Yuan's mind.

For example, what exactly is a giant? Where did it come from? What is the super giant in Act I? What caused Ellen's deep hatred of giants?

These questions will be answered as the game progresses.

During the intensive battles later, the content of memories will be constantly interspersed to reveal the players' doubts.

In the early stages of Attack on Titan, it was precisely this weird, grotesque, but real worldview that attracted players to continue to understand.

The plot continues to advance.

On the city walls, the training soldiers were chatting and laughing.

Sasha stole a large piece of meat and wanted to share it with everyone. Allen stood on the wall, confidently looking forward to the human's forthcoming counterattack on the giant.

But at this moment, a violent light suddenly appeared behind him, and the head of the giant giant appeared on the wall again!
