Chen Mo explained,”the heroes in this game need to be unlocked.” Players could purchase the items with gold coins, diamonds, and point certificates. Of course, some heroes can only be obtained through extremely fraudulent top-up activities. However, we’ll talk about this later. ”

“The point is that when the player wants to buy a hero, in addition to saving up the money needed to buy a gold hero, they also have to read the true life history of the hero through the microphone and answer the correct questions given by the system before they can successfully buy it.

Su Jinyu was confused,’manager, can you give me a more specific example? Why do I feel like you’re a scammer, system?”

“Alright,” Chen Zhao said.”I’ll give you a simple example.” For example, if a primary school student wanted to buy Li Bai, after he finished reading Li Bai’s true life introduction, the system would pop up a few questions, one of which was like this: In history, what was Li Bai’s real occupation?”

“There are four options below, respectively: drunkard, assassin, poet. Jungler.”

Qian Kun was shocked,”wow, can someone really get these questions wrong?”

“Don’t overestimate the education level of primary school students,”Chen Mo laughed.

“Moreover, these questions were drawn from a large question bank. The questions are completely random and the choices are all mixed up. There is also a time limit of ten seconds to answer. If you get it wrong, you’ll have to re-read the introduction to the person’s life. ”

“If a primary school student chooses drunkard, assassin, or jungler in this option ... Then it’s a pity that he can only go back and review Li Bai’s real history.”

Su Jinyu was shocked.”Manager,” she said.”Aren’t you afraid of those kids?”

“It’s every gamer’s duty to spread history to all primary school students!”Chen Mo said with a straight face. I’m obliged to promote traditional cultural knowledge!”

Everyone was shocked. Chen Mo was so serious when he said this that they almost believed him ...

Su Jinyu’s mouth twitched.”Manager,” she said,”so, King of Glory is actually an quiz game to popularize historical facts?”

......

Chen Mo nodded and said with certainty,””Yes, that’s right,”

He thought for a moment and said,”eh?” If that’s the case, do you think the game Committee will give a special recommendation spot to Mobile Legends? After all, this game is meant to promote traditional culture. ”

Su Jinyu facepalmed.”Manager! You’re thinking too much!”

Chen Mo chuckled,”okay, next up is the content of Dark Souls” prequel. ”

“The prequel to Dark Souls mainly remakes a bunch of scenes and makes some small changes to the game. For example, in the beginning, the bonfire will not be able to teleport. ”

“Ah?”

Everyone was shocked and almost thought that they had heard wrong!

The bonfire couldn’t be teleported. Could this game still be played?

Qian Kun tried his best to imagine the scene after the bonfire failed to teleport him.

For example, in Dark Souls, players would have to go through a lot of trouble to find Farron’s cesspit. By then, they would have accumulated a lot of souls and would have to go back to the firefight lady to level up. Then, they would have to run all the way from Farron’s cesspit to the High Wall of Lothric, and then back to the Firelink sacrificial grounds ...

This was too F * cking deceptive!

“Manager,” Qian Kun coughed dryly,”I think we should think twice about this. If we do this, our Experience Store might be razed to the ground by the angry players ...”

Chen Mo smiled,”it’s okay. Players can level up by the bonfire.” Moreover, as the player progresses in the game, they will get a special item. With this item, they can use the bonfire to teleport. ”

Qian Kun’s face was filled with pain,’in other words ... Teleportation is a function that can be used at will, but it’s now on a prop?’ Manager, aren’t you going a little too far? I can’t stand it anymore! Also, are you going to use this prop to charge for it?”

Chen Zhao’s eyes lit up. Don’t tell me this is a good idea!”

Qian Kun facepalmed and said,”don ‘t!” Manager, I’m just saying. You can’t charge us for this, or our lives won’t be guaranteed!”

Chen Mo laughed,”of course not. I’m just joking. But I’ll definitely need the prop.” Not only can’t the bonfire teleport, but there will also be some small changes in the prequel to Dark Souls, which will highlight ... Well, the game’s playfulness. ”

Qian Kun said,”this isn’t a game. This is torture!” Manager, I really think that the current difficulty of Dark Souls is already insane. Is it really appropriate to increase the difficulty?”

“Of course it’s appropriate!” Chen Zhao said. A torturing game has been turned into a mowing game by the players. Obviously, the players are far from reaching their limits!”

“And this is all art, understand? Art! What did Dark Souls rely on to become popular? It depended on its artistic quality. The core fun of Dark Souls was the unexpected level design, the intense boss battle, and the ubiquitous danger of death! If we only make something similar to Dark Souls, how can we meet the increasing material and cultural needs of the players?”

Everyone was speechless.

He was speechless, but his heart ached for the players ...

It was hard to imagine what Dark Souls would look like ...

“Also,” Chen Mo added,”Dark Souls will have a new game mode called random mode. In this mode, all items will be dropped randomly, except for some key items that may affect the subsequent plot. ”

“In other words, if players want to play this mode well, they have to explore everywhere and even collect everything as the goal of the game. Otherwise, they are likely to miss out on some very good items.”

Qian Kun’s eyes lit up,”this game type sounds very fun!” It can replicate the core of the adventure to the maximum!”

As everyone knew, the drops in Dark Souls were fixed. After a round of running and becoming familiar with the game’s items, players would know where the good items were and where the items could be taken or not. Therefore, the players ‘goals would be very clear.

Many pro players didn’t even fight monsters, they only picked up the key items and ran smoothly. This was obviously against Chen Mo’s design, and it also lost the fun of exploring when they were new.

If there was a random mode, the players would have to go through all the items. They might pick up trash from where a good item was dropped, or they might pick up a good item from an ordinary place. The dramatic effect of the game itself was very obvious.

However, Qian Kun also realized that there might be a very uncontrollable situation in this game mode. The players would find that they would only pick up a pile of trash at the beginning, and the good things would be randomly sent to somewhere.

If some unlucky player were to play this mode, they would probably be given a song called ‘cool’...

However, since Chen Mo was going to make this type of random mode himself, he would definitely have considered this. There wouldn’t be a situation where the prison key was inside the prison ...
