Because he already had various real-life stand-alone games as reference and so many classic martial arts novels as material, Li Shushan was able to produce this virtual reality stand-alone game at an astonishing speed.
In this reality, to produce a truly excellent AAA masterpiece, the money and time required are definitely not something that ordinary small game production companies can afford. Therefore, independent games these days are all taking the small but refined route.
However, Li Shushan does not need programmers or artists to make games. He just relies on his imagination. The plot is also ready-made. After all, there are so many martial arts novels. Players can participate in the plot or destroy the plot. They are simply the protagonists of the same person.
The magical artificial intelligence Alice can be modeled through Li Shushan’s imagination and combined with the images in various martial arts TV series in reality, and then set the character, and then she can become an NPC in the game. The specific effect has been achieved in Hatsune Miku, Luo Tianyi has tested it.
Among them, the famous martial arts characters are truly intelligent NPCs. Each one of them is a boss-level existence to the players. Only truly skilled players who work hard to learn high-level martial arts can challenge them.
As for the low-intelligence NPCs and monsters, just like in real-life adventure games, you can basically kill them without any damage by relying on the backboard, or you can get past them with a reckless attack, or you can just give in to the end and die. If I am not greedy for the knife, I will lose if I am greedy for the knife. In this case, I can always grind them to death.
After solving the plot and characters of the game, in fact, this "complex martial arts" game already has a rough prototype.
Anyway, the players are gradually arranged from low martial arts to high martial arts. Whenever the players feel that they have achieved great success, they will find that they are still far away. Just continue to suffer and continue to fight, and it will be over. Wouldn't it be nice to have an "online mode" where players can kill each other
For example, the game's engine system, operation methods, etc., there is no need to consider the viewing angle, comfort level, etc. like real games.
This is a real virtual reality game. Players play the game with their own consciousness and operate the magic incarnation that Alice prepared for them. When their consciousness comes to this avatar, they can practice various skills like the characters in martial arts novels. Kind of martial arts.
In summary, players use their consciousness to enter the Magic Network, and then play the world's first truly 100% immersive virtual reality game - "Martial Arts World" on the Magic Network platform.
Of course, the name of this game was randomly chosen by Li Shushan, but it felt that the name was still very consistent with the content of the game.
With this game, it is estimated that readers who feel that some martial arts novels are not in line with their wishes will come to "Martial Arts World" to realize their own ideas, and will no longer have to read some martial arts novels written by third-rate writers. The protagonist fights in the world of martial arts (and suffers to death), so at least he has a clear mind!
In addition to those classic martial arts novels, Li Shushan also added some original plots and characters, which can be regarded as easter eggs. Of course, the inspiration came from his own imagination. The heroine's surname is Su, but she has no name.
Originally, he planned to write this unknown girl named Su into a novel. However, as we all know, martial arts novels are so declining now that almost no one cares about them. No matter how good your writing is, can you surpass those senior masters
Li Shushan simply took advantage of the opportunity to make a game called "Martial Arts World" and inserted his original inspiration into the game, existing as a side plot for players to explore on their own.
As for the main plot of "Martial Arts World", there is actually no main plot. If I insist on saying so, the main plot is to become stronger.
Because only by being strong can you participate in more plots, otherwise you will just be the kind of bastard fish in the world who just watch and shout 666, and you may die from unknown AOE.
There is another setting that is also very needed, that is, players can freely adjust the pain. Otherwise, if it really hurts as much as in reality, even the most hardcore players will not be able to withstand it.
Li Shushan does not want to torture players physically, but mentally.
Many players are so confident before playing a game that they think they are the so-called "fourth natural disaster". As long as any creature in the game dares to show its health bar, then they are sure to kill it!
This time, any character or monster in the "Martial Arts World" game has a naturally bright health bar. If a player wants to make a bright future and prove his way through killing, that is also a feasible route and unlocks the highest orange achievement. , because it is too difficult, because such a chaotic and evil murderer will be hunted to death wherever he goes, and his files will be destroyed...
It can be said that this "World of Martial Arts" is also a bit like the martial arts version of "GTA5". It is a real sandbox game with a very high degree of freedom. However, if you don't improve yourself in the game, you will be random. Spawn the "Cleaner" and let the player die once.
Just kidding, Li Shushan is pointing at this "Martial Arts World" to harvest players' mental power. He will not make a loss-making business. Players' mental power is like game currency. He will drain them as much as possible, and he can play for one coin. There is absolutely no such thing as a good thing that lasts forever.
He invested so much of his magic power reserves in making this "Martial Arts World" because he hoped that it could become a hen that lays magic eggs and continuously provide magic power for the magic network.
In addition, depending on whether the players' mental strength is strong or not, there is an upper limit on the number of times players can die every day. Whenever they die a certain number of times, the players will be kicked out directly. They can only continue after they have fully recovered their energy. Playing games is also a kind of protection for the lambs. After all, the wool still comes from the sheep. Li Shushan does not want any lamb to become a vegetable because of playing games.
It took Li Shushan half a month to finally come up with the semi-finished product of "Martial Arts World", and he is ready to invite players to play it. In the future, he will slowly integrate richer and more comprehensive martial arts content.
There are three starting locations to choose from in the game, one is Jin Yong's "The Swordsman", the second is Gu Long's "The Sentimental Swordsman: The Ruthless Sword", and the third is Liang Yusheng's "Seven Swords Down the Tianshan Mountains".
In fact, it doesn’t matter which work you choose to start with. Anyway, after entering the game, all martial arts novels are integrated into one game world. Dynasties such as Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing all existed as one country at the same time. In the world of martial arts, historical rationality All stand aside.
After the game is produced, of course, there needs to be an introduction to activate the game, just like the previous "Online Concert" invitation. This is still the same principle as the "Universal Translator" app icon.
Li Shushan also didn't plan to attract too many people this time. It wasn't because he didn't have confidence in his game, but because after making this stand-alone game that he thought didn't cost much mana, but actually found that it did, he had a lot of mana reserves. It's not enough anymore. He is glad that there is no hard online game project directly.
Recruiting people through the Internet consumes mana, but if the players come to their own doorsteps, they can save a lot of mana.
Therefore, in this case, the candidates he selected for "internal testing" were all uploaders, console game anchors, etc. who had many fans, and asked them to advertise "Martial Arts World" well.
