Chapter 220 This is the Westworld
Yes.
Ouyang Xiao remembers it very clearly.
In the previous advance version, the image quality could only be adjusted to [High] at most, but I never saw the [Ultra High] option.
That would have allowed her to enjoy the ultimate experience of top-level graphics, and now you're telling her that the picture quality can be further increased?
"Hehe, I bought a 3080ti and a 4K monitor for gaming. Can I just turn on the ultra-high definition setting casually?"
Ouyang Xiao hummed twice and without hesitation raised all the picture quality options to the highest level.
You should know that when she used this configuration to play other 3A masterpieces, the frames were all above 60 frames, and the picture quality was all ultra-high.
The cutting-edge configuration does not allow her to keep a low profile.
Must be filled to capacity!
“Can the graphics of this game be improved?”
"Wow! I thought the early access version was considered high."
"The early access version is already better than everything else, and there's something even better!?"
"This is too outrageous!"
"GKD, look at the difference that ultra-high quality makes."
Graphics cards are getting more and more expensive now, and most of them only have enough configuration to run to [medium], so they all come to the live broadcast room to watch the high-definition effects.
Now that they saw there was an [ultra-high] level of picture quality, they were naturally curious and started sending comments urging him to do it.
"alright!"
With a shout, Ouyang Xiao finished adjusting the settings and switched back to the game page with great anticipation.
Next second.
She was completely stunned.
The audience's eyes widened instantly.
The vast wetland grassland in the picture suddenly took on a new look, showing a lush green color.
The sun shines through the clouds, creating reflections on the grass and water, and creating waves as the breeze blows.
Grass leaves were flying in the air, and the farm windmills several kilometers away could be seen at a glance. The sky was clear.
"This, this, this... is this a game?"
"Real shot! Definitely real shot!"
"Shit! It almost blinded my eyes!"
“This is so clear!”
“This light and color is amazing.”
"Looking at it makes me want to go there to relax and enjoy my old age."
The live broadcast room was flooded with comments, and everyone was shocked by the scene before them.
Ouyang Xiao also sat in front of the computer with his mouth open, his eyes trembling.
Beautiful, so beautiful!
It was like a scene in a dream.
It is simply the best place for rural life.
Even if you tell her that this is a real shot, she won’t believe it, because such a beautiful place can’t be found in reality!
But after just a moment of stunned silence, she frowned slightly.
"Strange, why do I smell something burnt? Is something burning? It smells so good."
She was sniffing and searching around, when she suddenly heard the sound of a turbine whirring coming from the computer case next to her.
When I got closer, a wave of heat hit me in the face.
Even the screen on the computer started to lag, the frame rate dropped rapidly, and it was completely stuck in PPT.
Ouyang Xiao was stunned at first, then he reacted.
"Ah! My graphics card!"
With a scream, she quickly grabbed the mouse and closed the game, looking flustered.
The audience who saw this scene also laughed like crazy.
"Hahaha, is that you, Xiu'er?"
"The graphics card exploded."
“That’s something I didn’t expect.”
“I can smell the aroma of the graphics card through the screen.”
"The aroma is so fragrant, so this is the smell of tens of thousands of dollars."
"Graphics card: Does it look good ? I paid for it with my life."
“50 bucks to recycle old computers.”
"This is too much..."
No one expected that the final result would be like this.
You know, the 3080ti is already very close to the current top-level graphics card, but it only lasted less than a minute before its video memory exploded. How terrifying would that scene be?
While I was shocked, I was even more amazed by the graphics of this game.
Although it was only a short minute, they were fortunate enough to appreciate the ultimate picture.
If it’s like this when watching live broadcasts, what about when you play by yourself?
Not to mention anything else, the top-level picture quality alone is enough to completely crush all games and can be called epic movie level!
"You must buy a copy of this game and keep it in your collection."
"I have paid. I will definitely try it out once I upgrade the configuration."
"Sure enough, the 2.5 billion was not wasted."
"It's only over 300 yuan. This game is so good."
During the discussion, many viewers directly opened the Steam platform, bought the game first, and then came back to continue watching the live broadcast.
After fiddling with the computer for several minutes, Ouyang Xiao finally fixed it and sat back in his seat with lingering fear.
"call--"
"Luckily it didn't burn out, otherwise my newly purchased computer would have been gloriously sacrificed."
Although she now has two million fans and can easily buy a computer worth tens of thousands of dollars, she still feels a little painful to spend so much money.
After all, she also climbed up step by step from a small artist.
Understand the bitterness of life.
"Okay, let's continue."
After adjusting her mindset, she opened the game again and started the story over again.
But this time, she didn't dare to turn on the ultra-high image quality and switched back to high image quality.
Although there is a gap, it is also the top one among all games, and gradually she and the audience are drawn into the game.
…
The plot of Chapter 3.
A little different from the previous two.
Because their identities were exposed at the end of the second chapter, this time after moving to a new camp and town, they planned to integrate into the town as good people.
Along the way.
Helped the small town sheriff capture the escaped criminal, caught up with the departing train, improved the sheriff's favorability, and became familiar with the surrounding environment.
On the way back, the three of them got on the boat and rowed back to the camp, singing western folk songs, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed and cheerful.
"Actually, this kind of life is pretty good. It's free and there's no need to continue living in exile."
Seeing the harmonious atmosphere among the three people, Ouyang Xiao was touched, and couldn't help but recall the words of Hosea, who was regarded as an old father by the protagonist.
“When you make enough money, you can go to a place where no one knows you and start a new life.”
A very simple wish.
But it is not easy to achieve in this chaotic era.
So Ouyang Xiao has always had a wish, hoping that these people can finally live the life they want.
After all, they had escaped and cooperated together, overcome dangers together, and talked about everything together. She had already become part of this displaced small group.
It was this thought that motivated her to continue playing the game and consider herself as a member of the team.
This is the beauty of Red Dead Redemption.
This is also the reason why players are so persistent and unable to get rid of it.
soon.
She rushed back to the camp and continued to push the plot forward.
Go rescue members who are robbed by nearby gangs, become a deputy sheriff for the boss to destroy the big family's moonshine factory, farm gun battles, sneak into arms bases, find debtors|wife to collect debts...
The entire process revolves around increasing reputation and making money.
But the method used is not very good.
For example, intercepting trucks and robbing businesses were all done for the sole purpose of making a fortune.
"It's only a matter of time before I'm led astray by these guys."
Ouyang Xiao, who had put herself in the team's shoes, couldn't help but complain. It was a pity that she was just worrying about nothing.
Although it feels great to do whatever you want in the game, this is the first time I play the game from the perspective of a bad guy, and I always feel a little guilty about doing bad things.
So when she encounters a situation where she has a choice, she basically chooses the good option and tries not to kill anyone if possible.
After a few rounds of plot.
She discovered that her honor value was actually quite high, and she could get discounts at every store.
"On the importance of covering your face when doing bad things."
"Is this the honor value mentioned at the carnival?"
"I was just watching the live broadcast from Wang Laoju. His honor value is red. He can't even enter the town. If he enters, he will be hunted down."
"What the hell is that so cruel? Doesn't that mean we can't use any shops or hotels?"
"The protagonist hesitates when doing bad things, but he still has some conscience."
“There is some conscience, but not much.”
Although Ouyang Xiao has tried his best to move in a positive direction, some forced evil plots are still unavoidable.
All we can say is that the protagonist is an evil person with a conscience.
Not at all a good guy.
It can be seen from the protagonist's dialogue that he also knows that the heinous crimes are unforgivable and he did not say anything false like being a good person.
From the beginning to the end, he was only loyal to the gang, loyal to the boss Dutch and his partners, and at the same time he was full of expectations for a free life in the future.
In this kind of tangled and self-indulgent mood.
Ouyang Xiao advanced several main storylines forward, and gradually established connections with the two major families in the town, asking them to help him find gold.
Originally, the protagonist had become suspicious of the two families because of the previous minor frictions, but the eldest brother Dutch wanted to continue dealing with them in order to find the gold.
The result was as expected.
During the operation, they were ambushed and one of their members, Sean, was killed. He was the young man whom Hosea told to study hard so that he would have a future.
[Arthur: "He's a good boy."]
After the fierce battle, the protagonist half-knelt beside Sean's body and whispered softly.
After all, they were companions who escaped from Blackwater Town together, and they died just like that, and they died because of the boss's insistence. There will always be some negative emotions.
They also began to complain angrily, saying that they should not have been involved in this operation. After all, the two major families had cheated them once before.
But the two members next to them were used to it.
[Micah: "Okay Arthur, he went out to find some clues, just like you, but he was unlucky. It has nothing to do with those things."]
[Micah: "You just complain whenever you get into trouble, unless it's your fault."]
[Arthur: "Do you know what you are talking about? You don't give a damn about anyone except yourself!"]
[Micah: "Oh, you act so high and mighty, but you're no better than the rest of them."]
[Micah: "How long have I been hanging out with you guys? Six months, right? You just keep complaining. You can fight, but you have no brains."]
The two of them were swearing at each other and seemed to be arguing. The atmosphere was not very good, but it was not to the point of a fight.
After all, in this western world, death is a normal thing.
The protagonist was just complaining that they didn't think clearly before taking action, and rushed in desperately when they saw the money, which ended up killing their companions.
This was also after they came down from the snowy mountains.
Another dead companion.
"Is he dead just like that?"
Ouyang Xiao stared blankly at the body lying on the ground.
She still remembered that not long ago, the old man in the gang told him to study more so that he could .
But he died so suddenly not long after that. It was too sudden.
There is a feeling of grief over the death of a rabbit.
"It's true that he died a bit unjustly."
"If Dutch and Micah hadn't been so determined, they wouldn't have been ambushed."
“It was clearly a mistake in decision-making.”
"Be careful. You can't walk when you see money."
“Maybe this is the real Westworld.”
Maybe he also realized his mistake.
When the protagonist buried the body and returned to the camp, he found Dutch and the others gathered together to discuss something, each with a serious look on their face.
Seeing the protagonist coming back, several people looked up suddenly.
[Dutch: "Arthur, have you seen Jack?"]
Dutch hurried over and asked hastily.
Ouyang Xiao's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.
Little Jack, isn’t he the boy who went out to play and fish with him in Chapter 2?
He is also the child of the protagonist's friend John and another member, and the youngest among them.
[Arthur: "I haven't seen it. Is there an accident?"]
Without waiting for the protagonist to ask, all the members gathered together.
[Hosea: "It was Braithwaite who did it. Kieran saw a few guys who looked like Braithwaite family members!"]
"It's those two families again!"
Ouyang Xiao was furious because his companions had just been killed by people from the two major families, but he didn't expect that they would not even let the children in the gang go.
This was the first time that she was so eager to do something bad and kill all those guys.
[Dutch: "We will find him, we will bring him back, and kill the idiots who dare to touch this kid!"]
[Dutch: "Micah, Kieran, if anyone you don't recognize shows up, kill them!"]
[Dutch: "Everyone else, let's go!"]
Upon learning that his gang had been targeted many times, Dutch finally showed his domineering side and took most of the members on horseback to the Braithwaite family.
Rapid drum music also sounded in the background, instantly raising the atmosphere to a climax.
