Regarding random items that follow enemies, in fact, Soul 1 and Soul 3 in the previous life had similar mods.
It's just that there are quite a few bugs.
For example, due to terrain constraints, bosses that are restricted by terrain such as Overlord Wonir are difficult to appear in other places.
In comparison, the random setting of items is much easier.
Except for some specific mission props that will not be changed, it will be enough to ensure that the player's mission process and the main process can proceed smoothly.
As for the rest
Just let it happen.
It can be said that this kind of randomness has no specific balance at all, it is purely based on face.
If you are lucky, you may have various artifacts at the beginning.
If you are unlucky, you may not be able to get out of the Fire Sacrifice.
However, Chen Xu is not prepared to make this unique mode the core gameplay of "Dark Souls".
It's more of a small gift for players, a little fun.
Give players some new entertainment space.
Of course, it will definitely not be officially launched at the moment, at least until a group of players successfully complete the story of "Dark Soul".
Although he had an idea in his mind, Chen Xu did not mention it to Qin Yi and the others immediately.
The main reason is that it won’t take much effort to develop this new model in the future.
After all, everything is based on the content of the "Dark Souls" game.
Moreover, during this period of time when developing "Dark Soul", the workload was relatively heavy, and I had to work overtime all day long to catch up with the progress.
Therefore, Chen Xu also arranged their own rest time for the employees in the development team.
… … …
In the office of Nebula Games, Chen Xu once again received the person in charge of the previous target software.
The two parties are sitting here discussing agency matters.
An hour later, Chen Xu shook hands with the person in charge of the other party with a smile on his face: "Happy cooperation."
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Chen."
In response to several requests made by Chen Xu two days ago, the target software was completely unified in internal discussions after returning.
Chen Xu is still responsible for the leadership of the game. They are only responsible for distribution.
Even the finished product of an overseas game needs to refer to Chen Xu’s opinion.
The commission for agency issuance remains unchanged.
However, Target Software has also put forward a new requirement, that is, if the subsequent agency conditions are the same, Target Software has the priority to sign the next three large-scale games of Nebula Games.
In addition, Target Software has also proposed to distribute some independent games previously launched by Nebula Games overseas.
As for the terms, we still refer to the agency distribution contract of "Dark Souls".
Chen Xu also agreed with this.
After all, if it were all done by Nebula Games, there would still be a lot of trouble.
… … …
Chen Xu has been quite busy over the past few days.
The main thing is to sign the relevant agency contract with the target software. Of course, the main work is still on "Dark Soul".
Including overseas channel promotion and game content translation, Chen Xu also set up a team to handle work handovers with the target software.
In the past few days on the Internet, the first batch of players to buy "Dark Soul", except for the handicapped party, have basically advanced to the later stages of the plot.
Sitting in front of the computer, Zhang Yi has reached the final scene, the initial furnace in the game.
Next to her, her girlfriend Wang Han was sitting there and watching.
This save file becomes exclusive to him after the first day of the game.
Mainly because the previous rule of one person dying once was really a bit too troublesome.
The chair under my butt is not yet warm, so I need to change it.
Recalling the experience of Dark Souls along the way, Zhang Yi also had some emotions.
It’s really not easy.
From the beginning, Guda died like a dog in the face of ashes, and now he is finally about to complete the great cause of spreading fire.
Set foot on the scene map called the Initial Furnace.
And here he will also face his last enemy.
At the end of the empty rift valley in the distance, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a bloody setting sun that seemed about to set dyed everything blood red.
But most of the sun's area has been shrouded in darkness, leaving only the last bit of the setting sun still shining with its afterglow.
Looking up, the surroundings are the ruined royal city, twisted trees, and countless different buildings that seem to have traveled through time and space, and there are still all kinds of weapons left on the ground.
Of course, there are also the blood stains all over the floor.
Zhang Yi is used to this.
After all, in the game "Dark Soul", if there is any map without the blood and tears left by the players, it would be a very strange thing.
Even inside the seemingly relatively safe fire-proof sacrificial site, there are blood and tears left behind by countless players after provoking the discouraged brother.
Slowly moving forward, Zhang Yi finally saw the last boss.
The armor that was almost burned to charcoal and the flaming spiral sword in his hand were the epitome of every Fire Bearer.
There is nothing to say, just start the war.
The skills of the incarnation of King Xin are very cool, and he is the Fire Bearer himself, but he has the skills of various professions.
And the weapons in hand will also change into various different weapons such as big swords, straight swords, etc. according to the situation.
Although until now in the game, Zhang Yi has not performed the so-called leveling up, but has upgraded as soon as he has the soul.
But facing the final boss, the incarnation of King Xin, he still died many times.
However, after nearly a hundred hours of training in "Dark Souls", he was completely used to it.
Even now, he feels like playing "Dark Soul" twice a day, and he always feels that something is wrong.
"Nice! Finally cleared the level!"
Empty the health bar of this final boss, even though there are many bosses and Gan Emperor players on the Internet who have cleared the level.
But at this time, Zhang Yi was still a little excited.
In the game, Zhang Yi's character stands next to the initial fire, igniting the flame and letting it spread throughout his body. Then he slowly sits down next to the initial fire, and the camera slowly moves closer to the sun in the distance that seems to be completely swallowed up by darkness.
The next moment the screen fell into darkness, and the title of the game "Dark Souls" appeared in the center of the screen.
This is the end of the game week.
"Don't mention this game. I was tortured at first and my scalp was numb, but the more I played, the more enjoyable it became!" Looking at the UI that returned to the main interface of the game, Zhang Yi, who was sitting in front of the computer, followed Wang next to him with unsatisfied thoughts. Han said.
This is not because he is pretending, but from his own heart.
When he first started playing "Dark Souls", he really didn't expect that there would be such a perverted game.
But as he kept dying, he suddenly realized that this game seemed really interesting.
And the further he played, the more he could feel that this game made him want to stop playing.
It seems that there is no difference between the various professions. In the early stage, they are mainly about killing people.
But there are additional points for different weapons, and the styles of play brought about, he feels that there is a lot of room to explore.
Especially the excitement and achievement after defeating the boss, which he had only experienced in the game "Dark Soul".
"The only regret I have is that I didn't understand the plot of this game until I heard about the game." Zhang Yi scratched his head and said.
The biggest feature of Dark Souls is the fragmented plot narrative.
At the same time, Chen Xu himself still prioritized the story of the third generation when launching it. Although Chen Xu also dug a lot of holes in the game, he left many stories about the first generation on the side.
Allow players to understand the past glory of the Black Soul world.
But for the majority of players who don't go into details and just slash and slash and then pass fire, or even know nothing about the other ending trigger conditions, they obviously still have a lot of questions about the plot.
For example, where did the initial fire come from? Who was the original salary king Gwen? Who is the unknown king on top of the ancient dragon? What is the origin of Pope Sullivan? What was the peak of the Age of Fire like
Before completing the game for a week, players focused on hacking and slashing. However, after completing the game, players became somewhat interested in the plot. However, most of them were confused and only understood the surface.
For example, why the fire is transmitted, and why King Xin does not want to transmit the fire.
But I don’t know anything about the story of the huge black soul world.
Wang Han, who was standing next to Zhang Yi, looked at the puzzled one and said, "Who told you to just beat the boss and cut and slash without paying any attention to the plot."
"Then tell me the plot." Zhang Yidao.
"Have I not finished the game yet? But according to what is currently circulating on the Internet, it seems that in addition to the ending of Passing Fire, there is also an ending of extinguishing the fire, and it is very likely that the game "Dark Soul" will have a sequel." Wang Han coughed lightly. one time.
Most players are still a little confused about what the plot of Dark Souls is.
Regardless of the difficulty or gameplay settings, including the plot, Dark Souls is not a game that can be judged based on past arpg experience.
The only thing that players can be sure of is that they can know the end of an era through various items and props as well as the legends left behind.
And what was the world like at the beginning of the era
Obviously Chen Xu probably hasn’t even created the folder yet!
"You haven't been able to figure it out for a long time, so you still blame me!" Zhang Yi curled his lips after hearing Wang Han's words.
He finally cleared the level here!
"That's because the story and world view of "Dark Souls" are too huge!" Wang Han defended: "And you just know how to cut and slash and then pass the level. You know the ending of Brother Thief, do you know the plot of Brother Onion's branch? There are also side missions such as Brother Fengxin and Saint Maiden, I guess you haven’t done any of them!”
Listening to Wang Han's words, Zhang Yi scratched his head: "What! Does this game have a branch?"
Of course, this is just a joke. As one of the first players to experience "Dark Soul", Zhang Yi doesn't really know about the branch line.
But I know it, but Zhang Yi really didn’t do any branch lines during the game.
And this is also the gaming experience of most players.
Because in "Dark Soul", it is different from other arpg games that want you to not complete the main story until you finish the side story.
In "Dark Souls", all tasks, including the main plot, have no clear prompts.
Everything has to be explored by the players themselves.
If you don't understand the main plot, the game will not progress.
But if you miss the branch line, you will really miss it.
So many players have completed the game for a week and have no idea what branches the game has.
But when players understand the stories behind these side missions, they will have a new understanding of the game "Dark Soul".
