Chapter 200 It is obvious that Director Gu has evolved
"It's okay, it's okay, don't panic, don't shake your hands, let's follow our feelings, with the camera in hand, the world is mine~"
Right now!
Douyin live broadcast, Yunzi live broadcast room.
As a female anchor who broadcasts LOL on a daily basis, Yunzai was once an angel player.
But later, as the angels were nerfed again and again, Yunzi started playing the clown and never turned back on the path of becoming a female pervert.
The catchphrase she often says is "Guominasai, I'm a pervert."
But today!
It seems that the pervert is about to be punished by another more exaggerated pervert.
but!
The proud pervert would never allow himself to admit defeat so easily.
After panting for a long time in the ventilation duct, Yunzi gathered himself together and crawled towards the exit while calming his heart rate and mumbling:
"Okay, then I saw a brother in the live broadcast room asked, 'Yunzi Yunzi, why are you so brave to play this game?'"
"That's because I can recite the Three Character Classic silently,"
"Man is born good. Not doing homework is a hero. What should I do when the teacher comes? Go downstairs to find Ultraman. Ultraman Ultraman, beat the teacher to pieces..."
Looking at Yunzi trembling as he walked forward in the ventilation duct, the live broadcast room was filled with laughter.
"You're making up your own comments again, right?"
'Hahahahahaha Yunzi is crazy'
'Not afraid (referring to heart rate of 140)'
"Are you talking about the Three Character Classic?"
'I feel the host is gentle, quiet, introverted and doesn't like to talk'
'?'
"Aren't you afraid of me? Don't shout. That shout just now turned on the sound-activated lights in my hallway."
'It's time for the much-loved part where perverts are punished by perverts'
'Old thief: Damn it, I'm the pervert'
"……"
The chatterbox crawled out of the ventilation duct muttering to himself, and Yunzi landed lightly on the ground and came to a circular corridor.
The corridor was quiet.
There is a circle of frosted glass on the inside of the corridor, and through it you can vaguely make out that the hospital lobby is below.
Near the outside is a circle of doors.
"OK guys, new scene,"
After walking a few steps forward along the silent corridor, Yunzi found himself blocked by a collapsed filing cabinet. He turned his gaze to the half-open door on the right:
"Library, we should go through this side to bypass the obstacle."
While saying.
Yunzi held up the DV camera, turned on the night vision, and peeked inside through the crack in the dark door.
The library was in a mess at this time, with books scattered all over the floor and the smell of blood was overwhelming.
"Hey, it's a bit bloody, luckily I'm running an 18+ live broadcast——"
Yunzi grinned in disdain. The smell of blood in the air made her feel nauseous.
"But it's okay. I can still accept this kind of bloody and terrifying shock."
"At most it will be a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses. It's much better than the psychological horror of PT."
"I'm not afraid at all, because——"
"Sister is a pervert~"
Talking about it !
Yunzi didn't think much about it, he reached out and pushed open the door of the library!
But the next second!
when--!!!
A shrill soundtrack suddenly rang out, and a corpse hanging upside down suddenly fell down. A horrible dead face suddenly appeared in front of Yunzi!
Standard door-opening kill! Face to face!
You must know!
Before this, the horror games that Lao Zei had worked on had never used the 'door-opening kill' setting!
Therefore, almost all players have such a stereotype in their minds, that is, 'Golden Wind's horror games don't have door-opening kills'!
It is precisely with this mentality that no matter whether it is Pew, Pure Black, or today's Yunzi, they would push the door so unscrupulously!
Because they thought they had figured out the old thief's pulse!
But obviously, they were wrong!
This moment!
Yunzi felt like he had seen heaven, and his originally sweet voice now sounded like a broken gong:
“Ahhhh open the door and kill me Chao! I Chao ahh ...
Bang!
Heart rate is off the charts!
Yunzi was kicked out directly from the neural connection!
And the other players who have reached this point are not spared either!
No one expected it!
In the horror game directed by Gu Sheng, there will be something called door-opening killing!
This one scared everyone!
The screams resounded around the world!
Players' stress reactions vary!
There was a black guy who kicked open the lid of the somatosensory cabin and howled, "F--k! F--k, don't eat the sour radish! F--k!!!"
There was a Korean female anchor who crawled out of the somatosensory cabin and collapsed on the ground crying in fear: "Ah Xi -- Ah Xi bar@#¥@%@ woo woo woo!!!"
Some anchors even opened the motion sensing cabin with a terrified look on their faces, and they broadcast at the speed of light: " WDNMD, I don't want to play anymore. I don't want to play anymore. My motion sensing cabin is moving on its own..."
…
"Obviously, Director Gu has evolved."
at the same time!
In the Tiantianyoubao online conference room!
Editor-in-chief Xu Xiaolin was leisurely drinking tea and instructing students one by one.
good!
With the careful management over the years and the correct grasp of the trend in recent years, we are targeting the growing somatosensory cabin game market.
Today, Tiantianyoubao has firmly established itself as the leading comprehensive gaming media in China.
Its influence has even spread beyond its borders, and it is now second to none in Asia.
Under such circumstances, the pressure on editor-in-chief Xu Xiaolin naturally increased day by day.
The global game market is so large that new games are released almost every day.
Whenever there are international game exhibitions and conferences such as the four major game shows, the Asia Games, the World Developers Conference, and TGA, all kinds of blockbuster games will be released in a blowout manner.
Xu Xiaolin doesn’t have the ability to clone himself, so it’s impossible for him to write so many reviews and analyses by himself.
Don’t even mention writing it.
He may not even be able to experience it.
So, in order to alleviate this situation.
Recently, Tiantianyoubao conducted a round of internal selection and picked out five new editors with great potential and ability for intensive training.
Hands-on instruction by editor-in-chief Xu Xiaolin.
The finalist will be promoted to the position of assistant editor-in-chief and enjoy the treatment of deputy editor-in-chief.
As for how Xu Xiaolin trains new people.
It’s very simple.
Go play games.
Lots of play, tons of play, tons of play!
Because only when you play more games and have enough experience, can you analyze the pros and cons, innovations and advantages of a game!
Of course!
Playing is not just for fun.
During the game, newcomers have to make their own analysis of the game, and then Xu Xiaolin will give them some guidance.
And today!
It coincides with the simultaneous release of "Outlast" and "Silent Hill".
So Xu Xiaolin organized a practical class for the newcomers.
The new editors went to play, and Xu Xiaolin was in charge of guiding them.
It’s a bit like the evening self-study classes in junior and senior high schools, where the head teacher sits at the podium and the students below come to the teacher when they encounter questions they don’t know how to answer.
Now, the person speaking in the online conference room is Lin Xiaomeng, the editor who was just made a full-time employee at the beginning of this year.
"Gu Sheng has evolved?"
Hearing Lin Xiaomeng's evaluation, Xu Xiaolin was very interested and thought to himself that this evaluation was quite novel.
As an experienced editor-in-chief, Xu Xiaolin knows that the popularity of a game review is not only related to the professionalism of the evaluation, but also the novelty of the evaluation angle is equally important.
Lin Xiaomeng's comments were obviously very novel.
Although I haven't heard her specific comments yet, at least this angle of evaluation is very eye-catching.
Xu Xiaolin nodded approvingly and waved his hand: "Tell me about it."
"Okay, Editor-in-Chief,"
Lin Xiaomeng nodded, calmed down and said:
“Based on my current experience, Escape should be considered a masterpiece that combines all the best of the horror game genre,”
"It contains Gu Sheng's signature psychological horror atmosphere,"
"For example, there's a figure standing at the window staring at the player when they first enter the giant mountain, the messy scene setting in the corridor, and the bloodstains everywhere."
"We have also added the jumpscare from classic horror games, such as face-to-face kills, door-open kills, etc."
"This combination undoubtedly further enhances the horror of the game."
"Because for players, the process of playing a horror game is actually the process of overcoming fear,"
“The source of fear is the unknown, so when playing, players will unconsciously look for the horror rules of this game, turning the unknown into the known and protecting themselves.”
"In fact, this is exactly the fundamental reason why previous horror games were gradually eliminated by the market—"
"Because players have found the pattern of Jumpscare scares, when the scares become cookie-cutter, people will naturally get bored,"
"The emergence of Gu-style psychological horror broke this rule and left players with nowhere to go. That's why PT was so successful."
"Although the psychological horror of Ke Gu is exquisite, as time goes by, many hardcore players have found the rules,"
"Like - psychological horror has no Jumpscare,"
"The players thought they had cracked the Terror King's tricks again,"
"I didn't expect that the King of Terror's tactics have also evolved."
"This cub... the designer anticipated the players' predictions and combined psychological fear and Jumpscare together,"
"And in this case—"
Speaking of this.
Although Lin Xiaomeng was grinning in her heart, she couldn't help but admire the ingenious design of the King of Terror Gu Sheng:
"This way, there is no pattern for players to follow,"
"All the doors in the game turned into Schrödinger's doors, all the lights turned into Schrödinger's lights, and even the patients wandering around the hospital turned into Schrödinger's mental illnesses,"
"Before you open every door, find every light, and approach every patient"
"You never know what's waiting for you,"
"When there is no Jumpscare, they are part of the psychological fear,"
“When they’re not serving as psychological horror backgrounds, they’re the sharp edge of Jumpscare.”
at last!
Lin Xiaomeng gave his evaluation of the game so far:
“It’s no exaggeration to say that this is the pinnacle of horror games in the past twenty years.”
good!
Good! Good! Good!
Lin Xiaomeng's analysis surprised Xu Xiaolin very much!
See the essence through appearances!
He was really impressed that a new editor could analyze the core of the game so deeply!
Don't be fooled by the fact that Lin Xiaomeng is usually gloomy and doesn't talk much, but when it comes to getting things done she is very decisive!
However!
Just when Xu Xiaolin wanted to praise Lin Xiaomeng, he heard another voice in the online conference room, with some doubts:
"Mr. Xiaolin, your evaluation is biased. You haven't even tried its competing games, and yet you dare to define it as a masterpiece?"
The boy who was speaking was named Hao Xianming. He was about the same age as Xiaolin and was one of the five new editors. He had just experienced Silent Hill.
Obviously, he did not agree with Lin Xiaomeng's high evaluation, and could even be said to be a little dissatisfied.
"I think as review editors, we shouldn't be so arbitrary,"
Hao Xianming said seriously:
"It's true that the Silent Hill PT directed by Gu Sheng caused a lot of heated discussion and was very scary,"
"But it was a trial version after all, and the whole process only took half an hour."
"But now, we are reviewing two complete works,"
"It is understandable that players, with their natural favorable impression of PT, cheer for the escape in a boisterous manner,"
“But as professional reviewers, it’s inappropriate for us to do this, right?”
Yes.
Hao Xianming believes that the reason why Lin Xiaomeng gave such a high evaluation of "Escape" is because she, like many of the players who were cheering, has a very serious fan filter!
Before, Hao Xianming had always disagreed with Gu Sheng's title of "King of Terror".
If you say you are the 'father of the second generation FPS', I agree.
From Left 4 Dead to PUBG, to Titanfall and APEX.
There are so many excellent works out there, I, Hao Xianming, am convinced and even willing to respectfully call you the 'Godfather of Shooting'!
That game is really awesome, nothing to complain about!
but!
Wouldn't it be biased to say that you are the 'King of Terror'?
A multiplayer online game called "Phasmophobia" and a trial version of "PT" with a total play time of 30 minutes.
With just one and a half games, you are crowned the 'King of Horror'?
Hao Xianming is young, energetic and fair-minded.
He did not recognize this uncrowned king. He believed that this was purely the effect of Gu Sheng's personal fans, plus media hype.
Now, Outlast is versus Silent Hill, and Golden Wind is versus Konami.
Comparing the data, it can be said that no matter how you compare it, "Silent Hill" is always superior to "Outlast".
In terms of experience, Konami has produced five horror games, while Golden Wind has only produced one and a half.
In terms of investment, the total investment of "Silent Hill" exceeded 67 million US dollars, while that of "Outlast" was only 18 million US dollars.
In terms of the market, KMN's global market share completely crushes the sum of Yiyux2 and Polar Bear 3.
"And, based on my experience just now,"
Hao Xianming said:
“Whether it’s the industrial level or the level design, or the game smoothness and the horror setting, the quality of Silent Hill is very good,”
"As professional reviewers, I think we shouldn't be influenced by outside opinions,"
"Instead, we should really focus on the game itself and use the quality of the game as the only criterion for judging."
Tsk!
good!
Really good!
After hearing what Hao Xianming said, Xu Xiaolin secretly praised him as a good boy!
One is Lin Xiaomeng, the other is Hao Xianming, these two newcomers are indeed the two most promising talents among the five.
Lin Xiaomeng has a unique vision and his analysis is distinctive.
Hao Xianming is fair and just, and never biased.
These are all valuable qualities to become a top reviewer.
Think of this!
Xu Xiaolin's love for talent increased greatly, and he waved his hand:
"Kobayashi's analysis is very accurate and his views are fair and just,"
"In that case, you two should switch games."
"Xiao Lin, go experience Silent Hill, and Xian Ming, go experience Escape!"
"I'm waiting for your comments!"
