While these beta testers were still in the game in fear or killing in all directions, their every move was recorded and uploaded.
There were professionals who would monitor their progress. Of course, Chen Mo would also watch them occasionally.
At this moment, Chen Mo was watching Jiang Huan's game screen.
The new tester held a pair of wire cutters in one hand and a pot lid in the other as he followed behind Mia.
Needless to say, this scene was quite amusing, as neither the wire cutters nor the pot lid were proper weapons or defensive equipment. However, Chen Mo really wanted to give this tester a thumbs up for his intelligence.
Many people knew that Thunderbolt Entertainment had professional testers, but they didn't know why Chen Mo had such strict criteria for hiring testers.
Everyone thought that these testers were used to test extreme horror and gory games, to see if these games would negatively affect people's mental health before deciding if they could be sold.
This was one of the reasons, but it wasn't the only reason.
Another important reason was that Chen Mo wanted to see what unexpected things the players would do in a game with a high degree of freedom, and whether the game could handle the 'unexpected'.
In layman's terms, he wanted to see if the story of the game would develop normally after giving the players a high degree of freedom.
For example, now.
According to the design of Resident Evil 7, Ethan wouldn't have any weapons in his hands when he met Mia. He did have a pair of wire cutters, but they could only be used to cut the chains on the door, and couldn't be used in battle.
As for the pot lid, it was even more ridiculous. It couldn't be used as a piece of defensive equipment, it was only used to disgust the players.
However, in the VR version of Resident Evil 7, all items were given physical properties, so the players could obviously use the pot lid as a defensive equipment and the wire cutters as a weapon.
Although the pot lid couldn't bounce back like in Dark Souls, it was still made of metal and was quite sturdy. It could block one or two slashes with it.
The players went from being unarmed to having defensive equipment, which meant that the combat ability of the players had a significant increase. The following battles wouldn't necessarily develop according to the original plot.
Chen Mo didn't want to see the beta testers playing the game as they were supposed to. He wanted to see them use their intelligence to challenge the original 'script' and make the story develop in a different direction. Only then would he be able to test how 'inclusive' the game was.
That was because the players were becoming more and more dissatisfied with the step-by-step, planned gaming experience. They hoped to use their own intelligence to rewrite the protagonist's fate. Chen Mo was currently experimenting in this area.
Jiang Huan had shown extraordinary talent in this area, so Chen Mo couldn't help but pay more attention to him.
…
Mia and the main character, Ethan, had wanted to escape, but Mia seemed to have been captured while they were not paying attention.
Jiang Huan searched for a long time but couldn't find Mia. He thought that this was probably a plot kill, so he continued to search for the first aid medicine without any qualms.
Moreover, as the number of props increased, the necessary four-dimensional pocket appeared in the game.
Needless to say, this was a design he had no other choice. If it was in real life, Jiang Huan would have to carry wire cutters and two large bottles of first aid medicine. He didn't even have a backpack, where would he put them …
Thankfully, these things could be tossed into the fourth dimensional pocket. Even items like the Pot Lids could be tossed into the pocket. This was an improvement over the design of the Curse of the Bloodborne.
However, the four-dimensional pocket had a limit, and the pot lids took up quite a bit of space, so Jiang Huan decided to keep them in his hand.
Opening a door, there was a staircase leading downwards. It was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see anything clearly. However, there was a strange sound coming from inside.
"Heh, so I have to go forward again … A normal person would notice something was wrong with this place, right?"
Jiang Huan slowly walked down and suddenly saw Mia crawling out of the darkness on all fours.
His wife, who had been so gentle before, had suddenly changed. Her face was bloated, and her veins were bulging. She looked like a corpse that had been soaked in water for a long time. Her eyes were cloudy, and her white teeth looked like they were about to devour someone.
The moment Jiang Huan saw her, Mia suddenly lunged at him, grabbed him, and threw him out!
Jiang Huan fell heavily to the ground. He was just about to get up when he saw Mia standing before him.
With a shrill cry, Mia waved a sharp kitchen knife and stabbed it at Jiang Huan!
If the players didn't have anything in their hands, they could only use their arms to block the knife. In the original game, the players' palms would be pierced by the kitchen knife. The main purpose of this was to create a bone-deep sense of fear.
However, Jiang Huan had the pot lid in his hand …
He blocked the knife with the pot lid in his left hand, and then he took out the wire cutters with his right hand and hit Mia's head!
Mia was stunned, but the next second, she lunged at Jiang Huan again, waving the kitchen knife, trying to stab Jiang Huan to death!
At this time, Jiang Huan's main character, Ethan, was already shouting, "Mia, wait! Calm down! "
According to the original plot, the protagonist could only use his hands to block the knife weakly as he retreated. However, Jiang Huan had no intention of doing so at all. He directly raised the pot lid and blocked the knife with it. At the same time, he used the wire cutters to hit Mia's head with all his might.
The original plot was supposed to have Mia suddenly waking up and knocking herself unconscious, but this time, she was knocked unconscious by Jiang Huan …
Until Mia fell to the ground, Jiang Huan didn't even get a single cut.
Mia fell to the ground as if she was dead, completely devoid of life.
Jiang Huan didn't believe it. With that combat power, I don't believe that she would die after a few knocks on the head.
So he silently picked up the kitchen knife that Mia had thrown to the side, thinking about how to do it safely.
Now, he had the pot lid in his left hand and the kitchen knife in his right, and his combat power had increased.
It didn't matter if he didn't have any equipment. He could just snatch it from the enemy.
However, the corpse gave off a feeling that it was most likely going to come back to life. What should he do?
Chop off her head? Chop off her hand? Stab her heart?
E, it feels a bit cruel … ….
But at this point, who cared if it was cruel or not? Jiang Huan raised the kitchen knife and stabbed it directly into Mia's chest.
However, at this moment, Mia really came back to life. She changed her expression in an instant under Jiang Huan's eyes, grabbed Jiang Huan, and smashed him against the wall!
A huge hole was smashed in the old wooden wall, but even so, Jiang Huan still held the kitchen knife tightly and didn't let go even after he was thrown out.
According to the original plot, Mia should have pulled out the kitchen knife that was stuck in the wall and chased after him. But when she looked, the hole in the wall was still there, but the kitchen knife was gone …
