Pei Qian quietly came to the second floor of Moyu Internet Cafe, wanting to see Qiao Laoshi's current condition.
After all, watching Qiao Laoshi suffer is already an important interest in Pei Qian's boring life, and it is also the motivation for him to continue to suffer in the game "Return to the Shore".
However, Pei Qian was disappointed.
Qiao Laoshi did not look at the screen and become sluggish like last time. Instead, he was drinking a cocktail leisurely, leaning back on his chair, in a very relaxed state.
The computer screen showed a misty yellow, filled with light cyan mist. Pei Qian could tell at a glance that this was the scene at the end of Huangquan Road, about to reach the Wangchuan River and Naihe Bridge.
"Nima, what's going on..."
"His progress is only a little slower than mine?"
"No...he is slower than me It’s fast!”
Pei Qian was stunned.
Currently, Pei Qian has reached the entrance to the Six Paths of Reincarnation. According to the game scene arrangement, after passing the Wangchuan River and Naihe Bridge, there is Wangxiang Terrace and Sansheng Stone. After passing Sansheng Stone, there is the main hall of Yama or Six paths of reincarnation.
But after Pei Qian got Pudu, he took a shortcut and skipped the Naihe Bridge, Sansheng Stone and other scenes from the end of Huangquan Road to the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
From this aspect, Qiao Laoshi has already completed more game content than Pei Qian.
"No, this situation is wrong..."
Pei Qian was a little dizzy. Only then did he realize that he had underestimated Qiao Laoshi's ability to suffer and his gaming IQ!
As a game area UP host, Qiao Laoshi’s gaming level is not up to the top. The video programs he did before were mainly about inventory and explanation, so Pei Qian naturally believed that Mr. Qiao If you get wet in the game "Return to the Shore", you will definitely suffer like crazy.
But now Pei Qian realized that he seemed to have underestimated Qiao Laoshi's level...
Think about it, as a player who can endure driving for eight hours, a game like "Return to the Shore" No matter how miserable the game is, it's still more interesting than driving, right?
And judging from Qiao Laoshi's expression, he has learned to enjoy hardship and even enjoys it a little...
Pei Qian felt a little panicked.
Qiao Laoshi can no longer suffer, his daily source of happiness is gone!
How can you keep going after this?
Of course, this is not the main reason.
The more important reason is that if Qiao Laoshi can reach the current progress with his own efforts and persistence, is it because the difficulty threshold of this game is not set high enough?
If the difficulty threshold of the game is not high enough, it will not be able to persuade enough players to quit. In this way, the sales of the game will not be low, and maybe it will still make money...
That is Something big happened!
Seeing Qiao Laoshiba's comfortable expression, Pei Qian instantly imagined the very serious consequences.
No, it can’t beForget it!
Pei is always a person who is good at making up for the situation. Now that he has seen the crisis, how can he sit still and wait for death?
Pei Qian thought for a moment and came up with an idea.
Qiao Liang was drinking a cocktail and thinking about the next step in the process, when he suddenly noticed that Mr. Pei was here.
"Mr. Pei!"
Qiao Liang was smiling all over his face.
After "the misunderstanding was resolved", he saw Mr. Pei as if he were a relative, very cordial.
Pei Qian smiled and pulled a chair from the side. Although he was not at all kind to Qiao Laoshi in his heart, he still kept smiling as much as possible.
After all, he still had to squeeze more residual value from Qiao Laoshi.
A week has passed since Qiao Laoshi arrived in Jingzhou. Excluding weekends, the accumulated game time has almost reached more than forty hours.
The game content of "Return to the Shore" is actually not as rich as the Soul series. According to initial estimates, if the player is more skilled, he can complete the main plot in about thirty hours.
If you are a perfectionist and want to play all the details of the game or even earn achievements, then this time may be extended to fifty or sixty hours.
If the player is handicapped... then this time may be positive infinity.
Because Qiao Laoshi was not used to it when he first started playing. He always died and got lost repeatedly in the early stage. In addition, he is a perfectionist, so it took him 40 hours of playing to get to where he is now. The progress is about 60% of the entire game.
However, his current understanding of the game should be relatively in place.
"How do you feel?" Pei Qian asked with a smile.
Qiao Liang was refreshed.
Huh? Mr. Pei asked the same question as last time!
He clearly remembered that the last time Mr. Pei came to the Internet cafe, he had the same problem. At that time, he felt that the difficulty of the game was wrong.
But now Qiao Liang understands that there is no problem with the difficulty of the game at all. Mr. Pei deliberately made the game this difficult!
During this period of time, Qiao Liang gradually felt the unique charm of this difficult game, so his answer would naturally be different.
"It feels very good! I haven't felt this kind of challenge when playing a game for a long time." Qiao Liang was full of energy.
Sure enough, the situation is not good...
Pei Qian's worries were verified. He tried hard to keep his expression calm and continued to ask: "So, in terms of difficulty, How do you feel about it? If you were asked to rate the difficulty of each scene, how many points would you give it? And what about the mobs and weapons?”
Qiao Liang seemed very happy. You value my opinion and ask in such detail!
When talking about things in the game, Qiao Liang instantly became energetic and immediately opened theChatterbox.
“In terms of difficulty, I think small villages and towns are the most difficult, and the difficulty decreases a bit later. Of course, it may also be because after coming out of towns, I have adapted to the routine of this game. , so I feel that the difficulty has dropped..."
"As for weapons, the best thing to use in the early stage is the hatchet. It is flexible, has a fast attack speed, and the damage is very considerable. It can basically be used from the early stage to the mid stage. ; When using the sword, the vertical chop is particularly useful. You can basically kill 90% of the monsters with just the vertical chop..."
Qiao Liang did not doubt his deception and talked freely about his understanding of the game during this period.
Pei Qian wrote it down silently.
Actually, he knew little about these weapons, but since Qiao Laoshi thought these weapons were useful, they were really useful.
Qiao Liang is not an operational player. His perseverance exceeds 99% of players, and his game IQ exceeds 70% of players. In terms of operation, he may only be at the upper-middle level.
In this case, isn’t targeting Qiao Laoshi the same as targeting ordinary players?
Qiao Liang can speak freely and point out the country. I have never felt so happy.
Because in the past, he could only complain on the Internet and make himself cute among his own fan base, and other game developers simply ignored him.
But now, the game developer is right in front of me, and he is still listening to his suggestions carefully, so he must perform well!
"Well...that's about it. In short, although there are many difficulties, it can still be overcome as long as you make good use of these powerful weapons!"
Qiao Liang still has some unfinished ideas.
Pei Qian nodded: "Well, they are all good suggestions. I will make sure they revise them when I get back!"
Seeing Mr. Pei's serious expression, Qiao Liang actually felt A little flattered.
Of course, he couldn't guess how much of Mr. Pei's words were polite. After all, when players feedback game problems to customer service, the most common thing they say is "We have accepted your suggestions." , we will give you feedback to the design team." But in fact, you only know whether the design team will make any changes.
So Qiao Liang didn’t take it too seriously, but he just found Mr. Pei’s attitude quite touching.
After all, such a successful game producer listens to his own opinions with an open mind, which can be said to be shameless.
Sure enough, Mr. Pei’s success is not without reason!
……
……
Back at the company, Pei Qian was running his fingers quickly on his computer, quickly writing down what Qiao Laoshi had said before. .
In Qiao Laoshi’s opinion, small villages and towns are the most difficult.
In fact, according to the settings, the difficulty of the subsequent scenes is constantly increasing, but Lu Mingliang and the others ignored a problem at the time, that is, the threshold for players to suffer is also constantly increasing.
The monsters in the small villages and towns were all new to me, so it was difficult, but I slowly got used to the rhythm of the game.Finally, the increase in difficulty was no longer enough.
In this case, let’s continue to increase the difficulty of the next few scenes!
There are also weapons. Doesn’t Qiao Laoshi like hatchets the most? cut!
Didn’t I say that Guandao’s vertical chop is particularly useful? cut!
In short, Qiao Laoshi thinks that the weapons that are particularly useful must be weapons that novices can use to skip classes, so he will cut them all.
It's definitely the kind of person who wants to kill someone, highlighting a maniac.
It’s none of Mr. Pei’s business anyway. Mr. Pei uses exclusive weapons.
He simply made a list and gave it directly to Li Yada.
"Adjust the balance according to this." Pei Qian said simply.
Li Yada took a look at the form and saw that the changes were really detailed.
Weapons like the Guandao directly state that they only weaken the attack action of vertical slash, which is very targeted.
"Okay, Mr. Pei, get it done right away!"
Li Yada couldn't help but sigh, Mr. Pei is really striving for excellence.
When I went to report to Mr. Pei recently, Mr. Pei had been playing with "Pudu". I don't know when Mr. Pei took the time to experience all other weapons.
Sure enough, it is precisely because of his silent efforts where no one can see that Mr. Pei can achieve his current success.
Li Yada took the watch and carefully thought about Mr. Pei’s design intention.
Pei Qian was sitting on the chair, and suddenly his conscience felt that he felt a little sorry for Qiao Laoshi.
Although it was to increase the difficulty, it seemed a bit excessive to chop all the weapons that Qiao Laoshi was comfortable with.
In this case, then treat him to another meal to make up for it!
Qiao Laoshi has made outstanding contributions to the balance changes of "Return to the Shore". In order to express his gratitude, it is not too much to treat him to a delicious meal at Mingyun Private Kitchen, right?
Thinking of this, Pei Qian took out his mobile phone and dialed Chef Lin's number.
"Make a reservation for tomorrow's dinner for me."
On the other end of the phone, Lin Canrong was stunned for a moment: "Uh, Mr. Pei, a customer has already made a reservation."
"Huh?"
Pei Qian was a little surprised.
Is it the repeat customer from last time?
"Then don't reserve the largest private room, just change to a small private room."
Lin Canrong coughed twice: "Mr. Pei, all seats have been reserved."< /p>
"???"
Pei Qianren was a little dizzy, and an ominous premonition enveloped his heart: "What about the day after tomorrow?"
Lin Canrong answered truthfully: " Mr. Pei, let alone the day after tomorrow, the current schedule has been until next week..."
Pei Qian fell into a sluggish state.
What the hell? ? ?
Didn’t I just go there for a week? What happened to Mingyun Private Kitchen?
