Chapter 457: The Fire is About to Go Out, But the King is No Longer Seen
[The fire is about to go out, but the king is nowhere to be seen...]
And just after this narration that runs through the core of the entire game!
The originally dark and low symphony became more melodious and grand with the addition of violin!
The choir-like singing, accompanied by the loud ringing of bells, echoed in this gray world!
when--!
when--!
when--!
When the flame of inheritance goes out
[The bell will ring throughout the earth]
[And then awaken the ancient fire kings in the coffins...! ]
'I--shit--I got goosebumps!
'Art! This is fucking aesthetic art!
'It's so epic!
'It's so shocking. Although it's a bit confusing , it's precisely this style that makes the quality of the entire promotional video reach top level!
'This promotional video is really awesome!
'Inheriting the flame? It feels a bit like some kind of ritual for primitive people to preserve the flame.
'It shouldn't be something as concrete as a fire. The fire here should be a very abstract concept, probably similar to the sun?
'My guess is similar to the brother above. The world is about to end. It is cold and dark. In order to continue the prosperity of the sun, the king must take on the responsibility of passing on the fire.
'I really like this kind of background where an era ends and an empire falls.
'Indeed, the previous Sekiro ended in Ashina Country, and this time it is the Fire is Going Out
'The fire is going out, and the king is nowhere to be seen?' Does it mean that the world is going to end, but the king who passed on the fire has run away? So the bells are ringing, awakening the old kings who have already died?
'Maybe no one is qualified? It's not that only those who are qualified to pass on the fire can become kings, but only those who are qualified to pass on the fire can become kings? Because no one can pass on the fire, so the old Dengs were resurrected?
'I don't understand, it's too confusing
'This old thief's usual style, talking nonsense, I can only say it fits the bill perfectly...
'……
And as the players are excitedly speculating!
The former fire kings also slowly woke up with the sound of the grand and distant bells, and resurrected from their coffins.
[The Deep Saint - Eldridge]
In the dark and secluded mountain stream.
Gray vines crisscrossed the landscape.
The dim light from the campfire outlined the contours of a huge coffin.
At this moment, the lid of the moss-covered sarcophagus had been lifted up.
And the next moment!
A mass of unknown fluid, as thick and corrupt as asphalt, but full of sharp edges and thorns, surged out of the coffin!
[Abyss Watcher - Farran Undead Squad]
The embers of fire are everywhere!
The billowing smoke was blown away by the howling north wind!
Among the numerous coffins, figures wearing mottled armor, tattered cloaks, pointed helmets on their heads and holding half-human swords stood up one after another.
Silent yet sharp.
The afterglow of the setting sun cast on them, casting an old and cold halo.
【as well as……】
[The lonely king of the city of sin - Giant Yum]
boom!
Inside the huge coffin that was as big as a mountain, a huge blade that was sharp enough to split the mountain and crack the ground suddenly smashed onto the ground, sending up billowing dust! …
Then, a giant with a chain mail hood and a huge body that blocked out the sun and sky slowly stood up from the coffin!
The situation is turbulent!
The giant looked towards the direction of the royal city.
Along with the increasingly stirring and magnificent symphonic singing, the giant also raised up the giant blade of creation and let out a breathtaking and deafening roar!
Suddenly, the wind blew!
A blazing and hot light emanated from the arms that were as withered as cracked tree bark!
Like a fully burning charcoal fire being blown by the wind, the crackling embers flew wildly in the air!
Three big bosses!
Epic performance effect!
Heavy texture plus unparalleled imagination!
This time, even the friendly competitors at the scene couldn’t sit still!
The uproar of surprise surged like waves, one after another!
"Sure enough! Still the familiar magical style!"
"The previous Sekiro was like this, and now this new game is also in this style!"
"It seems easy to choose a real era, create an imaginary background, and then add some magical settings. But in practice, it is not easy to achieve a level that is not inconsistent or even fascinating."
"This performance was amazing, with a cinematic feel and a heavy epic feel, as well as G's unique and masterful narrative style..."
"I can only say that it's a good thing Yun Wei withdrew in time..."
“Hahahahaha… otherwise it really would be a public execution, right?”
"Sa really knows her strengths. She can always give full play to her excellence and deliver a perfect answer every time."
“Indeed, one of the characteristics of the Golden Engine is its ability to create grand scenes. In this game, they deliberately highlighted the grand scenes and epic feeling. Coupled with the newly announced cooperation with Phoenix...tsk tsk!”
“…”
There were constant exclamations!
And with the announcement of the names of the three major salary bosses, they have been revealed!
A symphony meal!
Then the tone became soothing and gentle.
In a building that looked like an abandoned church, a girl with long silver hair and dressed in black nun-like clothes picked up a silver crown-shaped eye mask with black vortices surging on the table in the church and gently put it on her pretty face.
[But in fact——]
[Kings will definitely give up their thrones...]
[And the ashes without fire will come in droves...]
[That is a nameless, cursed immortal who can’t be used as firewood]
【But that’s why! 】
【ash】
[That’s why I crave the remaining fire so much…]
Rumble, rumble, boom—hum!
With the rest, the symphony of the entire promotional video came to an abrupt end!
The name of Golden Wind's latest work finally appeared on the large LED screen:
【《DARK SOULS》】
Dark Souls
Wow——!!!
In an instant, the whole audience burst into applause!
That’s right! This time, what Gu Sheng specially created was the “Dark Souls 3” produced by Hidetaka Miyazaki and produced by FroSoftare in his previous life!
In the next plan, he will use a flashback method, starting from the end of the fire extinguishing in Soul 3, and gradually show this bizarre and magnificent soul world. …
Of course.
The reason why he chose Soul 3 is not only because it is more mature than the first and second works, but also because of Gu Sheng’s little selfish motive——
This is one of the works he personally participated in producing in his previous life.
He has a special feeling towards Soul Three.
In fact, when he first arrived in this world, the work that Gu Sheng most wanted to present was Dark Souls 3, in which he had personally participated in the production.
But unfortunately, their Golden Wind was still too weak at that time.
Not only is the technical capability insufficient, but the funding is also far from enough.
The result was unexpected.
This delay lasted for four years.
Today, it is great to see this work reappear in the world in this way.
For a moment, Gu Sheng was even a little dazed.
This feeling is so wonderful and interesting.
When the LED screen fell into darkness, the lights in the venue came on again, and the cheers and applause in the entire venue reached a climax.
…
“Fuck, this is awesome, awesome, awesome…”
at the same time.
Shark, in Ayin’s live broadcast room.
A Yin, who watched the entire GDC first-day press conference, couldn't help but applaud.
"It's really awesome,"
A Yin nodded repeatedly:
"From the setting and the worldview, it can be seen that it is very different from Sekiro,"
"But what's the difference?"
Talking about it!
Then A Yin entered the developer page of Golden Wind on the game platform.
At this moment, with the release of the trailer for Dark Souls, the developer page has also been adjusted accordingly.
The DARKSOULS logo is prominently displayed in the most conspicuous place on the page.
Right below the promotional LOGO is a line of large, eye-catching words:
[The Dark Souls trial version is now officially unlocked]
【Click to load, open for free】
good!
This time, with Dark Souls officially announced at GDC, related trial versions of the game were also released.
The overall deo process prepared by Gu Sheng was not long. It started from opening the coffin, to arriving at the Fire Transmission Shrine, and ended with inserting the spiral sword.
Perhaps for the overall process of this game, arriving at the Firelink Shrine is the beginning of the game.
But Gu Sheng believed it.
For players, the monsters and bosses that can be explored and defeated along the way are enough to give them a good time.
Because the Dark Souls in the somatosensory cabin is really difficult!
It is much more difficult than the handle!
As we all know!
Originally, Dark Souls and Sekiro were two different games based on their combat roots.
If you bring the playing styles of these two games into the other party's game process, you will definitely suffer.
Because Sekiro requires players to have the courage to step forward and fight with swords, try to break the opponent's stance bar as quickly as possible, and launch ninja killing on the enemy.
Dark Souls requires players to win steadily, not be greedy, and not be obsessed with output.
Because Dark Soul has a very important key indicator that can even directly determine the outcome of a battle——
Energy bar.
In the game, almost all of your actions are linked to this energy bar.
Whether it's an offensive slash or a roll to avoid damage.
Almost all combat actions are tied to this energy bar. …
Once the energy bar is exhausted, you will become a walking vegetable, a living target that moves back and forth and left and right.
Although the consumed energy bar will be restored after a very short time.
But the outcome of a battle often depends on that short period of vacuum.
so!
In battle, players not only need to avoid the opponent's damage as much as possible like a wolf, but also keep their energy bar clear at all times.
You must have a plan for offense and defense, and never act rashly or flee blindly.
The difference in playing style is only one aspect of the increased difficulty.
On the other hand, the limitations of the perspective of the somatosensory cabin undoubtedly increase the difficulty of the game to a certain extent.
You know, the way to avoid damage in Dark Souls is not to step aside, but to roll.
Even with the help and support of the motion assistance system, players will not feel stiff or dizzy no matter how they roll.
But the problem is——
Whenever you roll, your perspective is affected.
The original advantage of the third-person perspective disappeared in an instant.
It is very likely that the BOSS's delayed knife will come down as soon as you roll over.
At this time, if it is the previous console version of Dark Souls, as a player, you can clearly see the BOSS's moves from a third-person perspective and make evasive decisions immediately.
But the somatosensory cabin is different!
The players don’t have eyes behind their backs!
If I use a delayed knife technique on you from behind, nine times out of ten I’ll send you back to the bonfire!
So, although the soul is still the same soul.
However, due to technological advancements, the difference in operating modes between the two has led to a significant increase in the difficulty of the somatosensory cabin version.
God knows how many times players will be sent away by the terrifying second stage of Human Pus when they first meet Teacher Guda.
