Originally, all the designers came today to inquire about new VR equipment, related parameters and some functional matters under development.
But "Silent Hill Movie", a demo submitted by Chen Xu, completely broke their schedule.
As for the Research Park, there is also a special theme today.
That's 'scream'.
When you are emotionally unstable and feel scared, what is the most effective way to express your emotions
The answer is very simple, that is scream!
A big man, and a seasoned tester.
Being scared and screaming because of a test demo is a shameful thing for them.
So at first, although Li Yue in front was extremely scared, even though he was startled by meeting Lisa (a female ghost) for the first time at the door of the toilet, he only screamed subconsciously.
It wasn't until later that I had close love with Lisa that I let go of myself under the turbulent emotional impact and followed my body's instinct to scream.
When Ye Xun and Tao Fa participated in the experience, they finally understood what this game was about.
This shouldn't be a game in the underworld at all!
The only thing that made them feel better was that Li Yue had released himself before, which also relieved them of pressure.
You can express your inner fears by shouting.
Suddenly, the entire institute was shouting like a pig being slaughtered.
And after resting for a while, Li Yue, who went into battle again, originally thought that he would be stronger to face all this.
After all, to put it bluntly, this is still a horror game.
When a player is familiar with a horror game, the feeling of fear caused by adapting will become less and less.
But after entering the game again, Li Yue found that he really thought too much, or that he was only half right.
Indeed, once players become familiar with it, horror games will bring less and less fear.
But the most critical issue now is that he is not completely familiar with it yet!
The only thing I know is what the female ghost looks like.
As for the rest
Everything is unknown!
He doesn't even know if there are other monsters in this game.
He thought he was far behind, but reality taught him a lesson.
Because the game has entered another world, after passing through the gate again, the faint sound of water will be heard in the ears, and the original light will turn into a scarlet red light.
Even the chandelier that used to hang from the ceiling was replaced by a large refrigerator.
The refrigerator swings back and forth in the sky, and the so-called red light is the trace reflected by the countless blood in the refrigerator.
In this section of content, extremely eerie music will appear for the first time in the game, and the loud cry of a baby will come from the refrigerator.
Along with the noisy sound of the radio, you can vaguely hear a sentence saying, 'After killing his family, his father hung himself with a rubber water pipe (umbilical cord) in the garage.'
At this time, he looked up at the refrigerator hanging from the ceiling. The scarlet blood would stay directly from the refrigerator, directly smearing the player's face.
Coupled with the sudden sound of high-heeled shoes behind him, it can be said that the atmosphere of the game is extremely depressing.
It was in this atmosphere, coupled with Lisa's voluptuous body and kissing her face, that the testers in the research park staged a high-pitched competition.
… … …
After leaving the institute, Chen Xu was relatively relaxed.
I think the demo of "Silent Hill PT" should be able to help these testers put forward their opinions and improve the VR equipment.
And judging from the current performance of the testers, it is estimated that they will not be able to get through this demo for a while.
As for the new VR equipment, Chen Xu is still quite interested.
Because in terms of experience, compared to the old VR equipment, it is indeed a step up.
Unfortunately, it is still difficult to reach the market in the short term.
While Chen Xu was thinking about it, his cell phone rang, and the caller was Yang Chen, the director of the game department.
"What's wrong with Minister Yang?" Chen Xu asked after answering the phone.
"It's nothing. I just told you Chen Xu that the subsidy should be paid before next Monday. In addition, the demo made this time is of great testing value. If you make VR games in the future, especially It's a horror game that's marketed to players, Chen Xu, you better take it easy!" Yang Chen's expression on the other end of the phone was very complicated.
He has also learned about the content related to this time's "Silent Hill Plot".
how to say
A little too special.
And the most critical point is that there are no particularly bloody scenes in this game.
The only uncomfortable content can only be said to be the baby embryo in the toilet.
In other words, even if it is not a demo test.
The content of "Silent Hill Plot" can also completely pass the review standards.
But now that the game is out, I can’t even think about using it with VR equipment!
After all, it will be ordinary players who will experience the game, not their dedicated testers.
How can this be a game for players? This is specifically to send players away!
How many players can withstand this!
"I think what Minister Yang said is correct at all. Mr. Chen, if you really want to launch this "Silent Hill Game" to the market, you will have to send away more than half of the players." Meng Zuo, who was accompanying him, waited for Chen Xu to hang up. After learning about it on the phone, he said it jokingly.
"It's not that exaggerated. The main reason is that the immersion of the new version of VR is too strong. Both the pictures and sound effects are too realistic." Chen Xu said with emotion.
The reason why a horror game is scary is that in addition to the scary scenes that make players feel frightened, the sound effects are also a top priority.
Taking the escape from Jushan Mental Hospital as an example, the player stands in front of the gloomy hospital gate. The building in the distance is like a giant beast in the dark, which looks very depressing.
But at this time, if Teacher Guo’s cross talk sounds in my ears, coupled with Teacher Yu’s praise, the effect will not be discussed.
On the other hand, if you have gloomy sound effects, but the Jushan Mental Hospital in front of you turns into a sunny Bikini Castle, it will be difficult to make people feel scary.
"That's true." Meng Zuo nodded in agreement.
"However, it is still difficult for horror games to achieve explosive sales." Meng Zuo sighed.
"Indeed." Chen Xu nodded.
This is also the reason why horror games have always been regarded as a niche category.
It was too scary and frightening, resulting in a lack of critical acclaim. Players did not dare to play alone, and sales naturally failed to increase.
If it wasn't scary, it would still be a Hammer horror game.
"But the design of "Silent Hill Adventure" really gave us designers a lesson, especially the ghostly walls of the circular corridor and the design of the narrow space, combined with Lisa's turning back to kill. Looking back now It still makes people feel frightened when they wake up!" Meng Zuo said with emotion.
"Mainly because this is just a demo, you can use it to your heart's content." Chen Xu said with a smile.
"But it's a pity that it can only be played on the new version of VR. Otherwise, I would also like to study more about your demo, Mr. Chen." Meng Zuo said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a demo if Teacher Meng wants to play it. It just so happens that the game department said it doesn't need to be kept secret. I'll develop it when I get back. Then Teacher Meng, let's discuss it in depth and give me some suggestions." Chen Xu answered.
Meng Zuo was stunned for a moment after hearing Chen Xu's words.
no!
That’s not what he meant, he was just exchanging business blows as a habit!
Who wants to play! That's not what he meant!
Meng Zuo was stunned and wanted to speak but was too embarrassed to say anything when it came to his mouth.
You can't say that he doesn't dare at all, right
"Mr. Chen, there is no need. There is no need." Meng Zuo persuaded.
"Teacher Meng, you're welcome. It's very easy to launch the PC version. After all, the materials are all ready-made and it only takes two days. Moreover, it can be regarded as a small gift for the players to give them some surprises." Chen Xu said with a smile. .
Hearing Chen Xu's words, Meng Zuo fell into silence.
If he was shocked, he was sure that the players would be quite shocked.
But you call this joy
Thank you on behalf of the players!
