Almighty Video Game Designer

Chapter 352: Perhaps this is the sad part about being a designer

Chen Zhao roughly understood the designer’s intention after a simple analysis. After all, he didn’t eat so many psychology books for nothing.

Thus, Chen Zhao found the bathroom light in the darkness and turned it on.

In the midst of the crackling sounds, the bathroom light came on again, but the color tone had become a little strange.

The sound of water in the bathroom had long disappeared, and there was no one inside, as if no one had taken a shower. Needless to say, it must be the male lead’s illusion.

Chen Zhao quickly found a line of Bloody Words in the bathroom mirror: “You can only escape from here if you find me!”

After a while, Zhao Lei asked,”manager, have you finished the bathroom scene?” The clue is in the bathroom mirror. You’ll see it when you turn on the light. ”

“Oh, I’ve found it,” Chen Zhao said.”I’m on the second-floor balcony now. Should I go to the storage room next?”

Zhao Lei,”WHAT???” How can you be faster than me?”

Chen Mo was speechless,’this game is too stupid, it’s not difficult at all. Moreover, the few ghostly figures and the terrifying sound effects that appeared in the middle of the game didn’t have any high energy at all. They were simply too weak. ”

Zhao Lei was speechless.

Chen Zhao continued,”after we’re done with the storage room, should we go to the underground parking lot? According to the game’s usual style, the clue should be in that red car, right? Do I need a bloody hand to come out of the trunk and catch it? After struggling to break free, you realized that the bloody hand had disappeared again?”

Zhao Lei didn’t speak for a long time before he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence,””Manager, you ... Have played it before?”

“I’ve never played it before,”Chen Mo said.

......

“Don’t lie to me, manager!”Zhao Lei was a little frustrated. If you haven’t played it before, why do I feel like you’re going through the process faster than me? You even know the trigger point of the plot?”

Chen Mo sighed,”maybe this is the sad part of video game designers.” I know exactly what the players are thinking, and I also know where I can scare them. I’ve played this kind of low-level scene in my mind countless times, and it’s no longer fresh. ”

“I don’t care anymore, manager, I’m going to play by myself.”

Zhao Lei felt as if his intelligence had been insulted. He was as helpless as an underachiever in the face of a straight-A student’s invisible posturing.

……

The entire game process was not long and ended in less than an hour. Of course, it was mainly because Chen Zhao had passed too quickly.

For the average newbie,”deserted house horror” still had some scary elements, and there were certain riddles in it, such as the bloody Words on the mirror in the bathroom. If they didn’t trigger it, they couldn’t continue. Therefore, most of the players ‘first attempt was between three to five hours, and most of the time was spent looking for clues in shock.

However, Chen Mo was well aware of the players ‘mentality and the designer’s intentions. He was mentally prepared for the most difficult parts and knew the rules of some of the puzzles. He was able to guess it easily, just like the players who had already cleared the game once and knew the rules, so he finished it in an hour.

As for Zhao Lei, he was still fighting hard in the last scene.

At this moment, the male protagonist was running in a space full of dead souls. From time to time, dead souls would suddenly appear and grab his ankles.

This was the last scene of the game. The male protagonist had fallen into a deep illusion, and his schizophrenia had reached the extreme. He had to find his hidden will among the countless souls and destroy it to clear the game.

Zhao Lei was playing very nervously. Even though he had already cleared the scenario once, many elements in the last scenario were random. Moreover, under the influence of such a terrifying atmosphere, he could not help but feel his blood pressure rising and his heart rate accelerating.

Just then, Chen Zhao’s voice rang in his ear at an inappropriate time.””Zhao Lei, I’ve cleared the game. I’ll be leaving first.”

Zhao Lei was speechless.

What the hell! How come I’m still at the last level, but you’ve already passed! Is it my first time or your first time? The game has only been going on for less than an hour. Are you F * cking cheating?!

Although he was cursing in his heart, Zhao Lei still said,””Oh, okay. Manager, you can go first. I’m about to clear the game.”

The system prompted,[your friend who played the game with you has cleared the game. You can now use his savefile to continue the game or continue with the current progress.]

Zhao Lei, who was surrounded by layers of dead souls, suddenly felt that everything he was doing was meaningless ...

Why was that ...

I’m clearly the player who cleared this game, right?

……

……

After coming out of the VR gaming pod, Chen Mo’s heart didn’t waver at all, and he even felt like laughing.

It wasn’t wrong for a player to give ‘deserted house shock’ a score of 3.7. Chen Mo felt that the score was too high. If Chen Mo were to rate it, it would probably be a negative score.

Perhaps it was because there weren’t any horror games in the country that the players were so tolerant of it.

After playing for ten minutes, Chen Mo was sure that house horror was a VR puzzle game disguised as a horror game. Other than the last scene where the player had to run around to avoid the dead and look for the dissociative identity disorder, the rest of the scenes only required the player to wander around the house to look for clues, and there was no tension at all.

There were no monsters that would kill your entire family, and there were no plot kills where your fingers hurt or your penis hurt. Although there were occasionally a few screams and a few scary scenes, they were all triggered, just like a haunted house. Even if you stood there without moving, nothing would happen.

Moreover, the resources in the game’s setting were really too economical.

Other than the main character’s room at the beginning, the entire game was played in a deserted house, so the resources of the game were very limited.

No wonder the game was so cheap. It didn’t cost much at all!

In terms of the plot, Chen Mo suspected that the script was written by a Chinese horror movie scriptwriter.

When he first entered the game, he still felt that there were many doubts, but in fact, the story of the game was particularly simple.

As an author who was passionate about writing horror novels, the male protagonist often needed to collect horror material and often fantasized that he was a character in the book, so over time, he developed schizophrenia.

In fact, this abandoned house was bought by his other personality. The female netizen called “red rose” was not a real person. It was all his imagination. Everything in this abandoned house was him fighting against his other personality.

In the end, he defeated the other personality and walked out of the abandoned house, and the game ended.
