Chapter 148 Does This Game Have so Many Endings?

Gaming and Virtual Reality Technical Committee.

Unlike Chen Mo's previous life, the game industry in this world is not managed by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, but by the Tourism Committee.

The functions of the two appear to be similar, but they are actually quite different. The main function of the version office in the game area is to review, which is responsible for picking out some elements of violence, pornography, and borderline, and ordering game developers and operators to rectify.

And the Tourism Committee is more than that.

The game review in this world is different from the previous life. There is a grading system. Relatively speaking, the red line of review is looser. Many games with violent elements can be reviewed, but the age of playable games must be adjusted accordingly.

Moreover, the main function of the Tourism Committee is not to audit, its main function is to guide and regulate the game industry, so that the game industry and virtual reality technology can develop better.

Generally speaking, the Tourism Committee will not evaluate the pros and cons of a game based on whether it makes money, and will not give special treatment to games that make a lot of money.

However, the Tourism Committee is more concerned about some innovative games, and at the same time will support those game types that have been frustrated in development. At the same time, it will also have certain guidance and support for content related to virtual reality technology.

At this time, the judges of the Tourism Committee are in a meeting to discuss the evaluation of this "traditional culture theme game activity season".

Because there are many games, each jury will conduct a preliminary review first, and only qualified games may be discussed at the meeting after the initial review.

Moreover, it is definitely impossible for these judges to complete the game from beginning to end. The designers have prepared corresponding GM tools for them. Various attributes, plot branches, etc. are adjustable, even like some plot comparisons. For complex games, the script must be submitted for review.

The judge who presided over the meeting said: "The awards that follow can be considered slowly. If the first prize is the first prize, it will be released in the two games "The Swordsman" and "The Legend of Martial Arts". Do you have any comments?"

"No comment."

"No opinion." The other judges said in succession.

"Okay, then let's discuss freely, which of these two games can win the first prize."

...

While the tourism committee was having a heated discussion, the players also downloaded the two games on the Internet and played them.

In terms of early promotion, "Swordsman's Love" and "The Legend of Martial Arts" are basically evenly divided, so the main topic discussions are also focused on these two games.

"Guess which game will win the first prize this time?"

"I think "Inquiries with Swordsman"? This kind of theme is very good at Zen mutual entertainment. The plot story and gameplay are very mature. As long as it is done well, it will definitely be first-class."

"However, there's no major innovation in "Inquiries with the Sword"."

"What innovation do you want, so many Chinese-style games have been made, and those who innovate have died miserably. The mode of "Inquiry with the Sword" is already the best mode that has been explored. It will be fun to innovate randomly!"

"But I'm tired of playing this mode for a long time. The core is the same, so what's the point of changing the script? If the gameplay is not innovative, is it still called a game? If I just want to watch the plot, I might as well watch novels or TV series! "

"I'm going to play "The Legend of Martial Arts". This time Chen Mo is full of sincerity, and it has been a long time since there has been a martial arts game. This must be supported!"

"Yes, I also support the theme song!"

...

Soon, players were immersed in these two games, and in forums and various player groups, everyone was discussing the design and plot of these two games.

"The plot of "The Swordsman's Love" is so good, I was moved to tears!"

"Yeah, the tragic ending at the end really made me sad, but this story is really good!"

"My friends who play "The Legend of Martial Arts",

How are you over there? "

"Oh, I'm still running on the big map, I feel like I'm going to play the second week..."

"Why, is this game so fun? Have to play it twice?"

"No, because I feel like I can't clear the first week..."

"What martial arts did you all choose? What am I supposed to do now? I'm a bit stunned..."

"I've already figured out the tasks on the big map, and I can only say that it's really complicated!"

"When I play, I have to keep a small notebook next to me, and memorize while I play. Now I have memorized more than ten pages..."

"Really? Is it so nonsense? Even if there is a little puzzle-solving content in this game, it won't take more than a dozen pages, right?"

"You wrote it down on a sticky note..."

"You'll know after playing it for yourself. This game really makes me feel like a retard."

"It is said that a strategy has already been released. It was done by players who tried it in the experience store before. By the way, there is an anchor named Lin Xue who has been broadcasting the game live before. It seems that two endings have been solved now."

"What do you mean, is there a third ending?"

"Three? Hehe, according to Chen Mo himself, this game has nearly ten endings..."

"What? Ten?!"

"Yeah, and what Lin Xue has opened now is the ending of the decent and the evil. The decent ending is that the protagonist defeats all the decent leaders and becomes the leader of the martial arts alliance, and finally destroys the demon sect; the evil ending is that the protagonist joins the demon sect and destroys all the martial arts sects. , and killed the leader of the demon sect, and finally became the overlord of the martial arts, ruling the world."

"So awesome? Evil sect ending? Damn it, this is the first time I've heard that a martial arts game has such rebellious content! But I like it!"

"I don't think I'm playing the same game as everyone else? Why was I beaten to death by chickens in Novice Village, and I got the title of 'Weak Chicken Man'?"

"Hey, don't mention it. I watched Xue Lin's live broadcast of the evil faction ending, it was too cruel, and I won't spoil the details. Let's go and see for yourself. I can only say that the degree of freedom of this game is too high. , higher than you can imagine.”

"Damn, you managed to attract me, well, I'm going to download it!"

...

The two games "The Legend of Martial Arts" and "Swordsman" are both priced at 50 yuan. After all, there are few Chinese-style stand-alone games with a free version higher than this price. .

Moreover, this game is not for making money, but for the judges to see. The price is too high to make players dissatisfied, which is meaningless.

At the beginning, the game "Swordsmanship" quickly received a lot of praise. Most players came for the plot. After experiencing the whole plot, they did not hesitate to give praise.

And the evaluation of "Wulin Heroes" is mixed, most of them are five-star praise, but there are also some one-star and two-star evaluations. The main reason is that this game is too difficult to get started, and many players don’t understand it at all.

But soon, the popularity of the game "Inquiry with the Sword" went down, because there is no innovation in the gameplay of this game at all, even if the plot is well done, after most players get through, they can discuss it for three or five days. There is no more topic.

Moreover, many players have also realized that this game has weakened some of its own gameplay in order to take care of the judges' preferences in many aspects such as difficulty settings, level settings, and plot arrangements, and its shortcomings were quickly exposed. It's just a lack of stamina. When I first started playing, it was very smooth. The first impression was good, but I couldn't bear to dig deep.

This design has also aroused the rebellious psychology of many players. In order to win the prize, you only care about the judges and ignore the players?

On the contrary, the popularity of "Wulin Heroes" has been on the rise, there are more and more forum posts, and even the popularity of strategies, process videos, etc. are constantly rising!

Yao Yu, the designer of "Swordsman's Love", is also very puzzled. What is going on with the game "The Legend of Martial Arts"? It levitated?
