With the help of many NPC profiles, Lu Wu and Bei Li finally decided on the first NPC and named him Lu Mo.
His background in the game was the adopted son of the King of Beiqi.
To the players, Lu Mo's role was similar to that of the village chief of the novice village in other games. He could answer the players' questions about the Land of Beiqi. Another function was that after the players reached Level 20, they could pay 50 soul coins to Lu Wu to establish a guild.
Of course, since Lu Mo was an NPC with a soul, he had his own consciousness. Other than the NPC settings, he would also have his own hobbies and thoughts.
This would make the game full of uncertainty and improve the gameplay.
After Lu Mo was sent to the underworld, he began to wander around the Mansion of the Dead. He often turned his head to look at the ruins of the Mansion of the Dead with a sad expression on his face.
After that, Lu Wu opened the notebook that was filled with all kinds of settings.
At this stage, there was no problem with the game experience, but there was still a lot of content that needed to be enriched.
For example, the class skills and subsequent NPC settings. Lu Wu had even thought of adding a few expansion packs when the number of players reached a certain level. One of them was the duel arena that would make the competition more interesting.
Of course, the concept of the content was still in Lu Wu's mind at this stage. He had yet to design it in detail.
…
At the same time, Wu Guoyi, who was in a meeting with Game Company 173, received a game cinematic video sent by Lu Wu.
Wu Guoyi originally planned to watch the content after the meeting. However, when he saw that it was signed by Lu Wu, he put the meeting on hold and opened the game cinematic video impatiently.
When he saw hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers fighting against the strange beasts that descended from the sky, the Beiqi flag that stood tall in the howling chilly wind, and the King of Beiqi's heroic attack at the cost of his life, he could not help but slap the table emotionally.
"Alright!"
Seeing the puzzled looks from his subordinates, Wu Guoyi immediately transferred the cinematic video to the dedicated computer for the meeting.
"Put on your virtual reality helmets and watch this game cinematic video."
Although everyone was confused, they still obeyed and picked up the virtual reality helmets that were placed beside each seat.
These virtual reality helmets were often used in meetings. After all, every meeting was about the development of the gaming platform and game testing. They often needed to put on the helmets to experience it, but this was the first time they used it to watch a game cinematic video.
After seeing everyone put on their helmets, Wu Guoyi also put on a virtual helmet. Then, he asked his assistant to play a cinematic video.
At the beginning of the video, the words "Battle Online" slowly appeared in the darkness.
Then, the darkness dissipated, and the image of the Underworld emerged. A black dragon was leading countless monsters to descend from the sky, roaring at the armored man to declare his ownership of this land.
When hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers marched out of the black fog with Lu Wu's shouts, the blood of many people was ignited. They were looking forward to Lu Wu leading the Yin soldiers to defeat the giant dragon.
The battle that followed was not so much a CG, but rather an epic war movie. The atmosphere was extremely well rendered.
In the end, when the King of Beiqi turned into flames and pounced on the giant dragon, everyone's heart tightened. They were completely immersed in the battle, as if they were one of the hundred thousand Yin soldiers.
In the end, the world turned into a sea of fire. The burning sparks lit up the Mansion of the Dead and the earth. All the soldiers lowered their heads and knelt on one knee, remembering the passing of the King of Beiqi. Then, the screen slowly dimmed, and the words "Battle Online" appeared again.
At the end of the video, there was a paragraph of text: Game Reality Shot.
After taking off the helmets, the meeting room became noisy. Everyone was asking what kind of game Battle Online was that it could produce such an amazing game cinematic.
However, many people were skeptical about the game reality shot because the cinematic was too realistic. There was no game in the market that had such a high degree of realism.
Moreover, it was the usual practice of many game companies to optimize the game's cinematic.
However, they had to admit that the cinematic of this game had really conquered their hearts.
Wu Guoyi smiled mysteriously, "You will know soon. This game will be logged on our homepage in the next few days. You can try it out then. I promise you won't be disappointed!"
Then, the meeting continued. However, the shocking cinematic of Battle Online still appeared in everyone's mind from time to time.
After the meeting ended, Wu Guoyi took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one. He frowned and started smoking.
In the email, Lu Wu wrote that he wanted Wu Guoyi's advice on how to improve the cinematic.
However, to be honest, he had experienced the game and knew that the cinematic was definitely shot in the game. Therefore, after watching it a few more times, he still could not find anything that he could point out. This made him feel very helpless.
However, he still took out his phone and dialed Lu Wu's number.
After Lu Wu picked up the phone, Wu Guoyi smiled and said, "Brother Lu, I've seen your cinematic. To be honest, I can't believe that you guys made the cinematic so quickly. Did you prepare it beforehand?"
Hearing this, Lu Wu followed Wu Guoyi's words and admitted that the cinematic had been made a long time ago. After all, it was just mentioned yesterday and the cinematic was released today. It was really suspicious.
"To be honest, I really can't believe that your team is made up of rookies who are unknown in the gaming industry. Your technical level is completely at the top of the world. Do you have time to introduce me to you?"
Lu Wu was put in a difficult position when he heard this. He could not possibly tell him that he had seen our team the other day and that it was just the two of us.
He could only give a perfunctory answer.
After chatting for a while, Wu Guoyi suddenly said, "Brother Lu, to be honest, there is no problem with the cinematic in your game. However, there is one thing that is missing."
Lu Wu was stunned and quickly asked, "What is it?"
"There are no flaws in the rendering of the music, the graphics of the scenes, and the sounds of the fighting. However, the music that is the most important to enhance the atmosphere is missing. Moreover, if you want to make the game bigger, BGM itself is very important. This is what you guys are missing."
Wu Guoyi's words hit the nail on the head and made Lu Wu realize the problem. How could there be a cinematic without BGM? This was indeed a big problem.
Moreover, from this problem, Lu Wu realized that the theme song of the game had not been finalized yet.
However, Lu Wu had no knowledge in this area, so he could only ask Wu Guoyi for advice.
"Hehe, what's so difficult about this? The theme song is easy. You can spend money to write the lyrics and then find a popular celebrity to sing it!"
