Lin Xue was groping in a dark cave, very scared, but not the kind of scared that made her unable to walk.
Because traditional horror games limit the visual range, the smaller the range, the stronger the player's sense of terror.
For example, the visible range of a normal person is 300 to 500 meters in an open area. In caves and buildings, due to the limitations of the building itself, this range may become several meters. If it is in the dark, this visible range will be shortened to One or two meters, even pitch black.
Darkness represents the unknown and danger, so the smaller the visible range, the stronger the player's inner fear.
But the difference in this game is that although the surroundings are pitch black, the players can see everything around them.
It's just in this "bat's perspective".
On the one hand, the darkness intensifies the fear in the player's heart, and on the other hand, the visibility of all factors alleviates this fear to a certain extent.
So under the superimposition of the two feelings, Lin Xue was not so afraid.
But this brings about a problem, that is, players become extremely sensitive to the sound.
We all know that when people's vision is limited, their hearing becomes sharper. For example, the hearing and sense of touch of many blind people are far better than normal people.
At this time, Lin Xue was in such a state, the surroundings were pitch black, and there were only a lot of white virtual frames. With limited vision, her hearing became very sharp.
It was very quiet in the cave at this time, so every slight sound hurt her nerves.
When the protagonist steps onto the metal platform, there will be crisp footsteps; when walking in the water, there will be the sound of splashing water; and the protagonist will keep clapping, coughing, and talking in order to find the way, and these sounds are silent It is also very obvious in the cave.
So there is a problem: if you want to see farther, you have to make a louder sound, but a louder sound will bring a stronger sense of insecurity to the player.
Put yourself in your shoes, if you are walking in a strange, dark environment, you don’t know where there will be enemies, normal people will be careful not to make a sound, so as not to be noticed by the enemy.
Yelling in the dark is a practice that violates human survival instincts, but in this game, players have to do so in order to see everything around them clearly.
In the cave is a winding road, but fortunately there is no fork in the road, it is completely a road.
However, every time she passed a corner or crouched to pass an obstacle, Lin Xue would feel her muscles tense up and her hairs stand on end.
After walking forward for about two minutes, bypassing countless intersections, there was another sharp cry from the front.
This sound is a bit like a baby cry in a horror movie. It is sharp, high-pitched, and lasts for a long time. In such a quiet environment, it is simply mental pollution.
And what's more terrible is that every time this kind of scream comes, the surrounding white virtual frame will be dyed red, giving people a very strong sense of crisis.
Lin Xue was able to determine the location of this monster through the source of the red sound wave, and it was getting closer.
"I feel like I'm dying... But I suddenly understand why this game is called a low-cost horror game. The cost is really low..."
Lin Xue said that he has never seen such a budget-saving game...
Because apart from the initial scene, the main level scenes of this game are all in this kind of pitch-black environment. You don’t even need to make textures, just draw the outline with a white line and you’re done...
Like other horror games, in order to highlight the horror scenes, they often have to make very complicated scenes and monsters. The more realistic the blood, stumps, internal organs, etc., the better.
This game doesn't use it at all, everything is outlines, and the result is particularly scary...
Continuing to walk in, Lin Xue finally saw the true face of that monster.
"My God, what is this, it's disgusting, mom, I'm going home..."
Lin Xue didn't dare to speak loudly, and watched the terrifying monster from a distance.
Sounds a lot like a baby and looks a lot like a baby. But this is a deformed baby, maintaining the shape of a baby, with a big head, but it is about 1.5 meters tall.
Moreover, its head and body are covered with deformed tumors or bumps, and Lin Xue can't tell what those things are. After all, all the things she sees now are only outlines, but anyway, the voice of this monster , Appearance and actions will only give people one feeling, that is disgusting.
This monster is separated from Lin Xue by an iron fence, Lin Xue tiptoedly tried to get around it, but she couldn't, because as long as she stopped making noise, the surroundings would immediately fall into darkness.
Therefore, Lin Xue could only continue to move forward while clapping her hands. Every time she clapped her hands, the baby monster would let out a scream, and then ran frantically to search for her location. Come.
Claps and screams, one after another, complement each other.
After Lin Xue confirmed that the monster couldn't get through, she resisted the mental pollution of the screams and continued to move forward.
Suddenly, Lin Xue found a women's shoe on the ground, but when she bent down to pick it up, the board on the ground suddenly collapsed!
Lin Xue screamed in fright and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, this distance is not particularly high, Lin Xue got up and looked up.
Definitely can't go up.
"Okay, these are the basic operations of horror games, calm down, calm down..."
Lin Xue continued to walk forward while comforting herself.
But this time she found that she seemed to have fallen into that baby monster's lair...
This time there was no fence between them, and the baby monster was four or five meters in front of Lin Xue, screaming and emitting red sound waves.
Lin Xue was in a panic. She wanted to quickly take the road on the right to avoid the monster, but one of them didn't pay attention and stepped on the puddle.
"Wow! Wow!"
Lin Xue walked loudly in the water, the baby monster immediately screamed and rushed towards Lin Xue!
Lin Xue was so frightened that she screamed, and this time she exposed her position even more. The baby monster rushed forward and grabbed Lin Xue's arm!
Lin Xue felt her left hand being grabbed and screamed loudly in fright, but the baby rushed up directly, and then Lin Xue's screen turned completely blood red.
After being resurrected, Lin Xue could still feel her legs trembling constantly.
"It scared me to death... No, this game seems to be stuck in an endless loop. If I don't make a sound, I can't see the way clearly. If I make a sound, it will attract monsters, and it will kill me directly..."
Lin Xue was in a panic. After dying once, she already understood that this game is the same as "Escape". Players have no room to resist at all, and can only deal with monsters through wisdom.
But how can we lure the monster away
Lin Xue groped forward cautiously, and suddenly, she saw a rock on the ground.
