Making Honkai Impact 3rd, am I surrounded by Valkyries?

Su Mu was not afraid of offending Potio or anything. After all, Potio had always been straightforward. This guy really had the chivalrous spirit of standing up when he saw injustice.

So he just expressed his opinion directly.

As a top-down "Roguelike" game, although the graphics are simple, the operation feels pretty good.

But the biggest problem is that it is not fun enough and the difficulty is a bit too high. If you are not careful, the monster will scratch you and take away half of your health.

Although it can be seen that Portio wants to increase the difficulty to test players, the distribution of difficulty is indeed unreasonable, and the resource management is not good enough.

The background of the game is the story of a ranger who travels around the universe to fight against various monsters and demons.

This reminded Su Mu of a game - "Alien Shooter".

It is an ACT series game developed by Sigma Team, published by CDV, and released on the PC platform in September 2006.

The game is a third-person action shooting game at a 45° angle.

The main scene of the game is in a dark and gloomy military base, which has been occupied by various terrifying monsters. Players must take up weapons and bravely eliminate the bloody monsters to achieve the final victory.

This game has parts 1 and 2. For old game fans like Su Mu, they were indeed rare masterpieces in that era.

Dynamic music and sound effects change as the game progresses, which will make players nervous and not feel monotonous and boring. Various environmental background sound effects are almost real, giving players real stimulation in terms of senses.

The game uses realistic environmental effects, explosive weapon attacks and lifelike alien monsters, and large numbers of monsters pour out collectively. Players control the gunners to shoot them fiercely, which is bloody and exciting.

The game has three game modes: normal, survival, and online.

There will be more than 100 monsters on the screen attacking the player at the same time, and there are more than 10000 monsters on each map waiting for the player to eliminate. Different weather conditions and NPC characters in the game also make the game content richer.

In the game, players can choose 6 different characters, each with different attributes. More than 50 different weapons with different functions, players can kill enemies by shooting, burning, freezing, etc. More than 20 military props, from flashlights, radars to various first aid equipment!

It can be said that there is both the pleasure of shooting the enemy and the sense of crisis of being pressed step by step by monsters!

It is no wonder that The Lone Gunman was rated so highly back then. After all, even from today's perspective, this game still has many remarkable aspects.

The difficulty level of this game from Portio Studio is not arranged reasonably, and the resource management is also a mess, which makes the originally very good feel overwhelmed by these shortcomings.

But this is normal. As the first game of a new studio, it is inevitable that there will be some problems.

The difficulty can be increased by lowering the monster's health, attack desire and increasing character values.

As for resource management, there is actually a direct and easy way to do it.

Then we can imitate the dynamic difficulty system of Capcom in the previous Resident Evil Remake series, which can refresh the supplies on the map according to the resources in the player's backpack. If there is a lack of ammunition, refresh ammunition, and if there is a lack of herbs, refresh herbs.

The number and difficulty of monsters can be adjusted dynamically based on the resources in the backpack, so that the supplies accumulated by the player can be consumed in battle each time.

In this way, the sense of crisis of insufficient supplies can always keep the players in suspense, causing obsessive-compulsive players to lick every corner of the map in order to obtain more resources... Otherwise, why do you think Li Sanguang in Resident Evil 4 is called Li Sanguang?

Su Mu did not hide his own opinions. Based on the highlights of the game "Lone Gunman" and the current shortcomings of the game "Star Ranger", he put forward his own opinions.

This also includes the dynamic difficulty system and how to use it, all of which were given to Portio.

"Lao Su, my dear, I love you so much!"

Portio slapped his thigh hard.

"I finally understand how a little cutie like you became the director of miHoYo. You are such a genius! I really want to shoot your little head in the head. How on earth did you come up with these things?"

Su Mu's opinions covered all the pain points of the game in Botio's hands, which surprised Botio. After a short trial play, Zhise was able to give so many opinions directly, and each opinion made Botio feel like he had been enlightened!

He originally didn't know how Su Mu became the game director, but now he understood that his brother got the position entirely based on his own strength!

"Old Su, why don't you come to our studio and be the director? If not, you can be the boss! As long as you are here, our studio will sooner or later become the best in the country, no, the best in the world!"

"The boss of miHoYo has been very kind to me, and I am truly sorry."

"Dear, what's there to apologize for in our relationship? Come if you want to, don't come if you don't want to! So should I break up with you just because you don't come to my studio?"

Although Potio was a little noisy, the brotherhood between him and Su Mu was indeed genuine, which made Su Mu feel warm in his heart.

“However, although I cannot join your studio, it is no problem for me to cooperate with your studio under the name of miHoYo.”

Botio looked at Su Mu in surprise: "My dear, this won't put any pressure on you, right? I don't want you to be excluded from the company because of me! If I really implicate you, I might as well just crash into a wall and die here!"

Su Mu smiled and said, "How could that be? My purpose of coming to the BW exhibition is to find a potential studio to cooperate with. Don't worry about this."

"Then let me thank you on behalf of my brothers in the studio."

Although Su Mu wanted to recruit Potio directly to miHoYo.

But Su Mu also knew that with his loyal and righteous character, he would definitely not let go of the employees in his studio.

It would be better to help him and cooperate with Portio's studio... But brothers are brothers, and there are some things that we still need to understand clearly.

If there are employees in Potio's studio who take advantage of his loyalty and do nothing but eat and wait for death, Su Mu will not be polite.

Su Mu plans to discuss the specific cooperation matters with Potio after the BW exhibition.

After saying goodbye to Portio, Su Mu continued to wander around the BW exhibition to see if there were any studios worth cooperating with.

During BW, nothing major happened at the exhibition.

The number of people on the second and third days was visibly less, but no matter which day, the booth of Honkai Impact 3rd had the most players gathered.

Although I missed the live broadcast of special guest Yuexia on the first day, it was still nice to be able to check in and take photos with the pretty COS girls.

The only thing that made the players feel helpless was that the 10,000 peripherals were not enough to grab, and they were all distributed the next morning.

The players' enthusiasm really surprised the staff who came to the exhibition with Su Mu.

Kosmo also had something to say. He had been distributing so many peripherals in the past day and a half that his hands were almost broken. Fortunately, after he finished distributing them, he had nothing to do and could go around the BW exhibition.

During the day and a half after BW, Su Mu took Grayxiu and Liuying to walk around the exhibition hall.

In order to reward Liuying for her hard work during this period, Su Mu specially treated her to oak roll cake.

This surprised Liuying very much.

"Senior, how do you know that I like to eat oak roll cake?"

"Intuition, probably."

Su Mu gave a vague reply, and Liuying didn't delve into it, but from her satisfied expression, it was obvious that she was very happy.

"Brother Su Mu...ah."

Little Grace picked up a small piece of blueberry mousse with a fork and handed it to Su Mu's mouth. She blinked her big watery eyes with a look of anticipation.

Just by seeing this look, Su Mu knew that he couldn't refuse. Otherwise, he would definitely get up in the middle of the night, slap himself hard twice, and angrily scold himself for being a non-human.

"Brother Su Mu, is it sweet?"

"Of course it's sweet. Gracie's blueberry mousse is delicious."

Su Mu rubbed Grace's little head with his hands. Grace's little face turned red, but she did not resist. On the contrary, she seemed to enjoy it.

"Gretsch, do you want to try my cake?"

"Well, thank you Sister Liuying."

Looking at the loving relationship between the big and the small, Su Mu felt that life was peaceful and quiet. This could be considered a break from the busy schedule.

Just then, a voice came from behind Su Mu.

"Hey, the family of three is being affectionate, it seems I came at the wrong time."

Su Mu looked back and was stunned by the appearance of the person who came.

"Xiaozhi?"

Xiao Shi took a step forward and punched Su Mu in the stomach, but the punch was not very powerful and looked more like a playful move.

"This is just interest. You haven't finished writing Mr. Jizi to death and making me cry with a knife yet!"

Xiao Shi waved his fist and raised his chin.

"If it weren't for the old antique's repeated warnings, I would definitely give you a few more hits!"

Xiao Shi and Su Mu were acquainted. After all, she had gone to Mihoyo and asked to meet Su Mu. She wanted Su Mu to make her into a character in the game. Su Mu had this plan, so he decided to do it and asked Xiao Shi for the authorization.

This child is a typical donkey that goes with the flow, and his personality is just like that of a child, so he is easy to handle. After all, even someone like Fu Hua who is not good at lying can directly do something like "biological mother fraud", which shows that this child really has no scheming or scheming.

Xiaozhi looked at Liuying who was holding the oak roll cake and asked casually, "Grayxiu is here too? I looked at the three of you from afar and really thought you were a family. But why haven't I seen this lady before? Is she your new girlfriend?"

There are two red clouds on the firefly's little face, just like a ripe red apple, making people want to take a bite.

"I, Senior, and little Grayshuu, do we really look like a family..."

Su Mu rolled his eyes: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. She is my friend."

Xiao Shi glanced at the two of them suspiciously.

"Friends? Oh - never mind, I'll just assume this is true."

She paused.

"I won't bother you two anymore. I don't think you need my help at your exhibition, so I'll go somewhere else first."

Xiao Shi was a man of great urgency. He came and went quickly and disappeared in a short while.

Su Mu shook his head. This child is really energetic.

When he turned around, he found Liuying looking at him with a slightly red face.

"what happened?"

"Senior...you just said that we are friends, right?"

"Well, sorry, if you don't want to..."

Su Mu answered Xiao Shi subconsciously at the time. After all, he had no habit of revealing other people's secrets.

Liuying is the exchange student that Jizi is in charge of, and Jizi asked her to work at miHoYo, and the fewer people who know about it the better.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

"Why, how could that be! Of course I am willing!"

Liuying clenched her two small fists and moved closer to Su Mu. The fragrance of the girl came to her face and penetrated her heart.

"I am very happy to be your friend. Thanks to your care during this period..."

this time.

The more work Liuying came into contact with in the project team, the more surprised she was.

Such a large project team is managed in an orderly manner under Su Mu.

Everyone has their own areas of expertise, but Su Mu seems to be omnipotent, at least in the Honkai Impact 3rd project team.

Action planners like Carol would ask Su Mu questions, and the main artist would also ask Su Mu for guidance from time to time. As for any difficult problems encountered by the programmers, they could always be solved quickly with Su Mu's help.

This made Liuying feel surprised, but also very respectful of Su Mu, and she also looked forward to Su Mu's strength.

If she could have the ability of Su Mu, maybe she could really fulfill her dream...

"Well, about work..."

Su Mu looked at Liuying beside him, thought for a moment, and then asked her a question.

"Actually, I have an important task for you. I think you should be able to handle it with your abilities."

During this period of time, Su Mu has been observing Liuying and found that this girl is indeed a talented person, so he came up with the idea of ​​cultivating her.

After all, as mentioned before, Su Mu came to this world with all the resources of the entire Blue Star. There are countless excellent masterpieces in it, and he alone cannot develop them.

Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate capable confidants and let them become game producers.

As more and more people are trained, perhaps the glory of Blue Star Games can be reproduced in this world!

"I am going to identify you as the project leader of Titanfall. If you are willing, I will bring this up at the company meeting after the BW show."

Su Mu’s words made Liuying’s eyes widen.

"Huh? I'm the project leader for Titanfall?"

Su Mu naturally had his own reasons for doing this. One was that Liuying's abilities were indeed outstanding and he really had a love for talent.

As for the other reason, he knew Liuying's character well. As long as Liuying nodded and agreed, she would definitely keep her promise.

The last one is that the collectors of all illustrated books have fallen into the trap of collecting. They want to run away with the illustrated books they have got? They must have tied it to miHoYo's chariot. What's the point of the exchange? They just let Liuying settle down in China!

All of the Galaxy Hunters also need to be tied to miHoYo's chariot, but this will take some time, so don't rush, just take your time.

"Well...can you let me think about this matter?"
