"So that was just the prologue? Is the game officially starting now? "
After the prologue, Zou Zhuo only had one word in his mind, "Awesome!"
It wasn't just Zou Zhuo, the viewers in front of their screens were also shocked. Although they couldn't experience VR, the first person view was still very impactful, giving them a sense of exhilaration!
"Awesome, this is awesome!"
"My goodness, this is a grass clearing game, it really is a grass clearing game!"
"Awesome, all the superpowers from the cinematic are here, and they're even stronger than before?! The main character is a bug, he's invincible! "
"It's not just the tanks and planes, there's all sorts of viruses and monsters? But the main character is the most insane! "
"Hurry, fatty, keep playing. I've recorded it, I'll post it on the internet later!"
Although the viewers couldn't experience the thrill of Killing the Prologue themselves, they could feel the thrill of the game just by watching the fatty play!
The screen turned black, and a line of text appeared on the bottom left corner, "Eighteen days ago."
Obviously, this was a flashback method, first taking the later parts of the story for the players to experience, then retelling everything from the beginning to the end, revealing the truth at the end.
This was a very common, or even common method of storytelling, especially in games. However, this method was simple, violent, and very effective.
Many Chinese mobile card games used this method, letting the players experience the battles of the best cards at the beginning.
For example, in the Three Kingdoms game, you were given Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Zhuge Liang to fight against Lü Bu, Dong Zhuo, and the others. Moreover, these cards were all top-grade cards with rich moves and beautiful effects. Every attack was a long string of numbers, creating a strong visual impact.
After that, the players would start from level one and slowly progress.
The reason was simple. Normally, the players would go from weak to strong in the game, slowly experiencing the feeling of leveling up. However, the players were weak at the beginning, with a single attack style and low attack power. It looked very low, and the effects weren't flashy enough, easily dissuading the players.
Using this flashback method, on the one hand, allowed players to preview the strongest battle of the game in advance, and increase the retention rate of players through the gorgeous battle scenes. On the other hand, it also gave players a sense of anticipation and hinted that as long as they played hard (with paywalls), they could achieve the same effect!
It could be said that this was a common method used by all games that aimed to have fun. Although it was simple and crude, it was extremely effective.
The same was true of Torturing to Kill the Original. The flashback not only made the players more curious about the identity of the mysterious man, Alex's purpose, and the truth of the incident, but also made the players more expectant about the plot. At the same time, the players could directly experience the power of Alex at the highest level, which made them look forward to leveling up in the future. Moreover, the players could also carry out the novice tutorial, which could be said to be killing three birds with one stone.
Killing the Original was a fast-food game that was extremely satisfying. The best way to make players stay was to show the best parts of the game to the players at the beginning.
Clearly, after the opening, the little fatty and the viewers in the live stream could not wait any longer. They wanted to see how the heaven-defying main character would perform in the game!
[18 days ago]
[Gentec Mortuary – Gentec Building, Street Park]
The Chinese translation of Gentec was Gentec, which was roughly equivalent to the Umbrella Corporation in Resident Evil. This name was actually an abbreviation for "Genetic Technology". This company was the main place for biochemical experiments and also the source of the virus.
Zou Zhuo was slightly taken aback. Mortuary?
On the screen, two doctors in full isolation suits were observing a corpse, and this corpse was Alex.
The two doctors looked at the file while chatting.
"I know this guy, he's a member of 'Blacklight'."
"Yes, he's a 'former' Blacklight member now."
"His name is... Alex.
Mercer, he has a relative.
mercer。”
"Do you think he's related to the test subject on the 51st floor?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Give me the No. 8 knife. "
A medical staff took the scalpel and prepared to perform an autopsy on Alex as a routine autopsy.
"Let's start with the torso."
The medical staff said as he prepared to use the sharp scalpel to cut open Alex's chest.
However, at this moment, Alex suddenly opened his eyes, suddenly woke up, and sat up abruptly!
The two doctors were dumbfounded and could not help but retreat in fear. "Get the f * ck out of here! Run! Inform Black Watch! "
The two doctors ran out in a panic while Alex stumbled down from the operating table and ran all the way to the entrance of the Gentec building. Obviously, his current physical condition was very poor.
At this time, Alex hid in the dark and saw an armed helicopter land at the entrance of Gentec. Several Black Watch soldiers with loaded guns quickly got off the helicopter.
The two medical staff seemed to be arguing with the soldiers but were shot in the blink of an eye.
Alex: "F * ck..."
The little fatty was also shocked. What the hell, these two medical staff were shot without doing anything? Wasn't this army too cruel?!
But... I like it!
At this moment, several soldiers found Alex hiding in the dark and countless muzzles instantly turned toward him.
"Everyone, we've found the main target! Open fire! "
Four soldiers fired at Alex at the same time!
Obviously, these soldiers had no intention of leaving him alive. The automatic rifles spat out tongues of fire and countless bullets hit Alex in an instant. Alex also let out a painful wail!
If he was a normal human, such intensive fire would be enough to turn him into a sieve.
Alex fell to his knees, but the next second, he stood up again!
"I... What's wrong with me?"
Obviously, even Alex himself was a little confused. He didn't die and seemed to be safe and sound!
Alex stepped on the trash can next to him and easily crossed the four or five meters high wall with barbed wire!
Looking back at the height of the wall, Alex's own eyes showed a look of disbelief.
The cinematic ended, and Zou Zhuo officially gained control of Alex. The screen entered the first-person perspective, and the current mission target was also refreshed on the screen.
[Escape Gentec, escape the current area!]
There was a small map at the bottom left edge of his field of vision, and there were instructions on the map. Zou Zhuo began to run wildly!
Obviously, his body was very weak and he didn't have much health left. It wouldn't end well for him to fight the army head-on. But to Zou Zhuo's surprise, although seriously injured, Alex's movements weren't hindered at all.
