Chapter 757 Over-the-shoulder perspective
On October 1, the experience store officially opened the trial experience of "The Doomsday of the United States".
There are still many players who are interested in "The Doomsday of the United States". After all, it is a game produced by Chen Mo, so there is a natural trust.
What players don’t know is that trial play is not just about the experience store.
Chen Mo has sent the full version of "The Doomsday of the United States" to major game media at home and abroad so that they can conduct game reviews as soon as possible.
In fact, it’s not that Chen Mo doesn’t want to promote “The Doomsday of the United States”. After all, this game is a recognized masterpiece, and the so-called “stepmother’s birth” definitely does not exist.
However, this game is indeed not suitable for promotion in traditional ways, and even if it is forcibly promoted, the effect will not be very good.
For players, only when this game is played to the final ending can they truly understand the meaning of "magic work".
Since this is the case, there is no need for those tedious publicity methods. Just post a promotional cg and it’s all done.
Of course, if you don’t make any publicity at all, the sales will definitely be poor when it is released on the 15th. Even if "The Doomsday of the United States" is good, the reputation of players will explode, but it will take a certain amount of time before it becomes truly popular.
That's why Chen Mo handed over the complete version of the game to major well-known game media in advance. He hoped that the game review manuscripts of major media could be released before the game was officially released.
At that time, all players should be shocked, right?
...
October 1, morning.
As soon as the experience store opened, the players queuing up at the door came in neatly, swiping their ID cards, and going to different floors.
The experience store has long had a very fixed group of players. During holidays or when new games are released, the number of people in the experience store is somewhat explosive, so these players have long formed certain rules, get up early every day to queue up and try it in order, and everything is still orderly.
Chen Mo got up quite early today and was already sitting on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor.
The earliest group of players have gone straight to the VR game experience area on the third floor. After all, most of the games Chen Mo has made now are VR games, so the VR game experience area is also the most popular.
However, there are also many players in the PC and mobile game experience area, and they will soon be full.
Among the players queuing up early, Chen Mo saw a familiar figure.
"Zhao Lei?" Chen Mo looked up and greeted him.
Zhao Lei was a little surprised: "Shopkeeper, you still remember me, good morning."
Chen Mo smiled: "Of course I remember, I feel like you haven't come to the experience store for a long time, and I thought you've left the imperial capital."
Zhao Lei shook his head: "It's a long story. I happened to meet a girl I like when I went on a blind date. After getting married, it was all a matter of things. Last month, the child was just born and was very busy. Today is the holiday. I took a break from my busy schedule and came to experience the store."
Chen Mo was a little surprised: "I've become a father? Congratulations. In this way, I'll give you a game back."
Zhao Lei smiled: "Hey, store manager, you are so polite. I'll go up and play games first. If I go late, there will be no place. Let's talk in detail when I get down."
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, you'll go play the new game. The trial just started today."
Zhao Lei nodded: "Then sure, I came here for the new game this time. Although I haven't come to the experience store for more than two years, I have been paying attention to your new game."
After Zhao Lei greeted Chen Mo, he went up to the third floor.
Zhao Lei is an office worker who often comes to experience the store before. He is also a typical Beijing drifter, and his life is under great pressure. He has tried "Stanley's Fable" before.
However, he didn't come to the experience store again for a long time. Chen Mo thought he had left the imperial capital. After all, the life pressure in the imperial capital is so great, Zhao Lei is over thirty years old, so it's not a big deal to stay like this.
However, what surprised Chen Mo very much was that Zhao Lei was already married and did not leave the imperial capital.
It can be imagined that his daily life should be quite hard.
...
Zhao Lei came to the third floor and found that more than half of the game cabins were already occupied. In the elevator, he seemed to see two or three familiar faces, as if he was an anchor on the Internet?
When Zhao Lei often came, the experience store had just moved here not long ago. The VR game only had one "Minecraft" and the development of "League of Legends" that dominated the PC end did not start. At that time, Chen Mo was just a pretty ordinary B-level designer.
In a blink of an eye, Chen Mo is already one of the top designers in China, and has developed many classic VR game masterpieces.
Even the experience store is full of new faces, and there are still many anchors appearing.
Time flies.
Zhao Lei sighed a few words, found a game cabin and went in.
The login interface of the game cabin is the theme of "Underworld", and there are already many VR games in the game cabin, with a wide range of dazzling ones.
In the most eye-catching position is "The Doomsday of America".
"This is the store manager's new game, try it out."
Zhao Lei chose to enter "The Doomsday of the United States" without much trouble, after all, it is a new game.
...
Enter the game.
Unlike other games, "America Doomsday" did not log in at the beginning, and it seemed that it directly entered the game scene, which was pitch black.
“Tick, tick, tick…”
The very crisp and powerful clock ticking sounded in Zhao Lei's ears.
Then, the game screen appeared.
In front of Zhao Lei's vision, a little girl was lying on the sofa, looking like she was asleep.
It seemed that she was sleeping a little uncomfortable, and the little girl moved her arm under her slightly.
There was a sound of door opening next to it, and a middle-aged man walked in while making a phone call, and the camera also moved over in time.
"Tommy, is he the contractor okay? I can't lose the job. I know... let's talk in the morning, okay?"
The lights were on, the little girl woke up, and the middle-aged man sat down on the sofa.
Middle-aged men are worried about their work today.
The little girl thoughtfully prepared a birthday gift and a watch for him.
The father and daughter joked about each other. Although there was no particularly touching scene, they were inexplicably very warm.
It's late at night.
The father picked up the little girl and went to bed upstairs.
"Good night, baby."
The vision was frozen at the sleeping little girl, and the light gradually dimmed, indicating that a while has passed.
At this time, the phone at the head of the bed rang.
After an inexplicable phone call, Uncle Tom was looking for the little girl's father, and then the phone hung up.
The little girl crawled off the bed, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and didn't quite understand what was going on. But she decided to go to find her father first.
At this time, the camera automatically came to the rear of the little girl and the game began.
Zhao Lei was a little surprised: "This game...is not a first-person perspective? Is it a third-person follow-up perspective?"
At this time, Zhao Lei's vision was above the back of the little girl, which was a standard overshoulder perspective, which was very common in many PC games.
However, in VR games, since the player's vision is broader and the player's sense of substitution is enhanced, many games adopt the first perspective.
