Chapter 346 The Siege at the Scene (For The Smiling Gentleman 2/3)(1/2)
The news of the live trial of "Sekiro" quickly spread to the Internet.
Players who can come to Star Game Carnival either have some relationship with the game media or have a high attention to the game. These people are also very active on the Internet, so the information about "Sekiro" was quickly spread on the Internet.
On the forum, a post caused heated discussion among players: "Zhongming is crazy!"
The post was obviously posted by a player. After trying out "Sealant Wolf", the player completed the achievement of 6 deaths in five minutes. He was furious and stopped playing, and then took out his bracelet and posted such a post.
"I'm convinced. Zhong Ming's mind is getting watered? He made a new game "Sekiro", and the difficulty is simply designed with feet! I died six times in five minutes after I entered!"
Maybe because the player was emotional, the posts did not write specific game content, nor did they have any videos of the game trial, but they just simply complained.
However, this post was first discussed on the trial of "Sekiro" on the entire network forum, so it still attracted many onlookers.
"Six times in five minutes? You are funny. You go to the resurrection point to find monsters and send them directly. You can't deliver them six times in five minutes!"
"Is the poster exaggerating? Or are you talking about the miserable food?"
"Zhong Ming said I won't take the blame. Wasn't "Sekiro" done by Tungkeng Studio?"
“What’s the difference?”
"Xinghuo Studio is another studio under Weiguang Interactive Entertainment. Although it is also owned by Zhongming, it should have a completely different style from Weiguang Studio. The designer is also another team. It is normal for different game styles."
At the beginning, players were all mocking the poster, because they didn't believe it anyway, that a game could kill players six times in five minutes.
As a result, the poster replied in a furious manner.
"It is impossible to die six times in five minutes? Have you ever been to Star Tour Carnival? Let's prove that it is normal to die six times in five minutes!"
"There is a skill in this game called 'resurrection', which means that after death, you can have the chance to resurrect once. If you die, you will die again and die in an instant, you will lose two lives!"
As a result, the poster didn't explain, but after explaining, more players began to mock him.
"Die then die? Wow, the poster has completely refreshed my understanding of food. Beating the boss will give you two lives, so the difficulty is reduced by half. I have to complain about this??"
"I'm so laughing. The poster is so delicious. The appraisal has been completed."
No matter how the poster explains, everyone doesn't believe that this game can be so difficult.
Death six times in five minutes? Are you born with five fingers less than other players?
The poster was so angry that he stopped talking, and finally said a harsh sentence: "If you don't believe it, just wait. If you have the ability to buy "Sealant" and don't have to refund it!"
Amidst the laughter, this post was gradually buried. Although some of the posters' replies were agreed with the posters, it did not cause any storm.
...
At the same time, Star Game Network and some other game media released promotional videos of "Sekiro".
For Star Game Network, the DLC and "Sealant" of "Ink and Wash 2" are the highlights of Zhong Ming's period. It just happened to take this opportunity to catch up with the game, which is of great help to the website's traffic, and you must spare no effort to promote it.
Other game media are also gaining popularity, and even many game media in other languages are translating and reprinting.
The promotional video of "Sekiro", which is the opening cg+ game scene played on the booth screen, was also spread on the Internet, allowing players who did not participate in the Star Tour Carnival to see it.
The message below the promotional video is basically consistent with the reactions seen by the audience.
"Ninja theme?"
"This picture is OK, the atmosphere is very well set off. The battlefield where maple leaves are floating and the cruel battle, the atmosphere comes out all of a sudden!"
"The battle is so exciting, the impact is simply overwhelming!"
"It feels like it's fun. This Ninja Killing move is so handsome!"
“It looks like a great action game!”
I have to say that this promotional video is really too deceptive.
Zhong Ming deliberately edited the scene of monster abuse, and combined with the unique combat system of "Sekiro", the viewing quality after fighting is simply amazing.
Players will definitely feel very happy when watching it as a buyer show, and they are not playing it themselves.
But at the same time, many players and media who tried the game on the spot finally began to speak out.
The player who posted the previous post "Zhongming is crazy!" was probably the first group of players who tried it out. He posted it as soon as he was abused. Because most people still don't know the truth, his post was not paid attention to except to a group of ridicule.
Later, there were sporadic players complaining on the forum that the difficulty of "Sekiro" was too high and too inhumane, but it also did not cause much trouble.
It was not until the official release of Star Game Network that those players who did not really get started playing "Sekiro" realized the seriousness of this problem.
"The new work of Weiguang Interactive Entertainment Sekiro is too difficult? Players on the scene were tortured and cried!"
This time the manuscript is no longer a complaint from players, but an official manuscript edited by Star Games, which is already an opinion given by professional game reviewers.
At the beginning of the manuscript, we will first briefly introduce the background of the game "Sekiro".
"The annual Chinese player feast star tour carnival is in full swing. Mr. Zhong Ming, a well-known game producer in China, also brought the DLC of "Ink and Wash 2" and the new work "Seki Wolf" of its Turbo Studio, and arranged a trial of "Seki Wolf" for players."
"Sekiro is a game with ninja as the theme. The protagonist's name is Wolf. At the beginning of the story, the protagonist needs help Oko escape from Ashina Castle, but..."
"In terms of combat skills, "Sekiro" has various gorgeous moves and the Shintoshi Hand. Shintoshi Hand has many complex functions, and can be equipped with various Shintoshi tools, such as Shuriken, fire spurt, etc...."
"At present, there are a group of lucky players trying the game at the Star Game Carnival, but the results of the game are unexpected. Different words of "death" appeared on the screen on the scene, and many players were even abused to give up on the spot. At the scene, the staff of the Torch Studio gave all players 30 chances of death, but most players even gave up before they used up 30 chances of death..."
This article did not add fuel to the fire at all, but only objectively described the real situation on the scene.
At this time, many players who were not on the scene began to feel something was wrong.
The player who complained before seemed to be saying true?
Give each player 30 chances of death? There must be something tricky here!
How can a normal game be tried, give players 30 chances of death?
Many players who were not very interested in "Sekiro" were also attracted. Everyone began to appear on major live broadcast platforms and looked for live broadcasts about "Sekiro".
Finally, I found it on the Weiguang Game Platform.
Other live broadcast platforms also have live broadcasts, but the live broadcast effect is very poor, because there is no live broadcast software on the on-site equipment, and there is no collection card. For some other live broadcast platforms, such as Linghu Live, their anchors can only shoot the screen with a bracelet, and the screen effect is very poor.
On the contrary, all gs1 hosts have Weiguang Live. Many people can turn on the live broadcast while playing games and watch it on the Weiguang Live Platform.
Players began to flock to the live broadcast platform to check the battle situation on site.
Click into a live broadcast room.
The Red Ghost rushed forward and grabbed the protagonist, and came a handsome back-up onion. The protagonist's blood volume in the lower left corner was only one blood skin. Then the Red Ghost threw the protagonist hard and fell off the cliff!
A word "death" appears on the screen, and the number in the upper right corner changes from 10 to 9.
Change a live broadcast room.
The protagonist is besieged by a group of monsters in Hirata's mansion. Two monsters holding shields in front are perfectly defending the protagonist's attack. The protagonist was about to change the axe when he saw the fat brother wielding a huge sword and killing the protagonist.
The protagonist was dissatisfied, but as soon as he returned, he was rushed up by a monster and died instantly. The number in the upper right corner changed from 7 to 5.
Change another live room, another live room...
The audience was shocked to find that it seemed that the situation in each live broadcast room was similar.
All are full of the word "death"...
Either you are dying or on the way to death; either you are dying in the hands of the boss or at the hands of the little monster!
Of course, there are also those who are not good.
At this time, I have to thank Weiguang Live for its unique game data filtering function. By combining the game progress and deaths, you can filter out a few live broadcast rooms with few deaths and fast progress.
Although they are all passers-by, there are so many hosts on the spot, so there must be a few that have a good time.
Strictly speaking, the early stage of "Sekiro" is really not difficult. I feel it is because I have not figured out the game mechanism at all.
As long as you can establish the core idea that there is no difference between "Sekiro" and "Taigu Master", you will find that many bosses actually deliver dishes.
After searching, the audience found that there were two or three very powerful players who tried the game on the spot, and some even passed the Red Ghost three times. Of course, a large number of viewers flooded into these live broadcast rooms.
The audiences who come later will naturally give priority to entering these live broadcast rooms with a large number of people. Of course, the number of people in those live broadcast rooms that die repeatedly is much smaller.
So the audience watched for a long time and were stunned.
What is the difficulty of this game?
I watched the live broadcast rooms with the largest number of people and felt that although this game was not easy, the difficulty was still within the acceptable range. Although the anchor died a few times when he played the boss, it passed quickly. Moreover, the game can be resurrected and run away, so it doesn’t seem that difficult?
But looking at the live broadcast room below, it would be terrible. The 30 lives were used up in a short time and were killed by the same boss. Some of them had even disconnected the signal before they died. Most of them were angrily withdrawing from the game.
This polarization situation makes many viewers completely confused and feel very confused.
...
The situation on the scene gradually changed.
Many players were directly persuaded to withdraw, and after they left, after word of mouth and demonization, they persuaded some players who were waiting and watching for the second time.
However, some players are more interested in "Sekiro" because of this!
This is probably a strange rebellious mentality. You all say that this game is very difficult, but I don’t believe it!
You guys are all tortured to death in this game, I insist on passing the level and trying it out!
A group of players left with dark faces, but more players lined up in a long line behind the team...
Many new players have the same idea: I want to see how difficult this game is!
To be continued...
