"This combat system is too awesome!"
At first, Yan Qi felt that the combat system had been changed beyond recognition and was very unhappy.
However, after adapting to this rhythm, he suddenly felt a unique sense of satisfaction.
At this moment, he was no longer an ordinary person or a weakling who was submissive to the small monsters in the mass grave. Instead, he had become a true Martial God, an ultimate assassin who had mastered powerful skills and danced on the tip of the blade!
He had found the reason why Eternal Fallen Samsara's values were higher than Repent and be Saved's.
Because Eternal Samsara had this sort of special killing mechanism, in order to prevent players from killing monsters too easily, the health and stamina of the monsters were adjusted to make the pace of the game more consistent with expectations.
This was also to encourage players to use Perfect Parry instead of killing the Boss one slash at a time. This was not in line with the designer's original expectations.
"If that's the case, can I resist the Black and White Impermanence's plot at the beginning?"
"I couldn't beat the Black and White Impermanence before mainly because my damage was too low. But with the current combat system, damage isn't important at all. No matter how much HP the opponent has, as long as you hit an opening, you'll be killed. "
"Mm, let's go and give it a try!"
Yan Qi immediately saved his current save file and created a new one. He returned to the original courtyard and challenged the Black and White Impermanence.
In less than two minutes, the Martial God was once again hammered to the ground by the Black and White Impermanence. The iron chain pierced through his collarbone and he was taken away.
Yan Qi: "…"
Sure enough, dreams were plentiful, but reality was harsh.
The scene he imagined was perfect. First, he would fight with the White Impermanence and parry the Mourning Staff perfectly. At the beginning, the Black Impermanence would only throw skills at the side. As long as he dodged at the right time, he would be able to easily deal with the Black Impermanence after he got rid of the White Impermanence …
However, when they really started fighting, his first parry failed, and he was directly smashed to the ground by the mourning staff.
The mourning sticks in the hands of the Black and White Impermanence were considered heavy weapons, so the swing time before the attack was longer than the longsword in the training mode. The attack rhythm was different.
Although Yan Qi had trained well in the training mode and felt good about himself, he had only adapted to the attack rhythm of swords and sabers. Once he encountered the Mourning Staff, he was immediately at a loss.
"Alright, as expected, I'm not worthy …"
Yan Qi silently restored the save and continued to play his original save.
…
At the same time, in the advertising and marketing department.
Meng Chang was also paying attention to the players' feedback after the update of Eternal Fallen Samsara.
"What the hell is a new combat system! I can't even defeat the small monsters! "
"Yeah, these little monsters know how to parry. I can't fight them at all. Moreover, as I was fighting, it killed me with one slash. I almost fainted!"
"The Martial God is even more useless … Previously, I was still able to fight Meng Po with some difficulty, but now, I'm having a hard time fighting the monsters outside."
"You didn't go to the training stage, did you? According to the teaching, you have to attack according to the rhythm of your breathing. Otherwise, if your breathing becomes chaotic, you will be killed by the monsters. "
"This new battle mechanism encourages people to fight with their swords. With the right strategy, it doesn't matter if it's a monster or a boss, it'll be very fast. I'm already a little addicted to the feeling of rubbing the joystick!"
"Indeed, with this change, it doesn't look like an action game anymore. Instead, it looks more like a music or fighting game. Find the right rhythm and timing, then push the direction to parry."
"It's too complicated, I can't play it …"
"I, on the other hand, think that it's very fun. There's really a sense of satisfaction that other action-type games can't get, especially the moment when you disrupt the opponent's aura and execute them. It's simply too exciting!"
Just as Meng Chang had expected, the gamers online had a polarized evaluation of the battle.
A portion of players who especially liked Repent and be Saved's combat system felt that it had been changed beyond recognition. It was difficult for them to adapt and accept it. However, another portion of players felt that this combat system was very novel. The rhythm was faster, and it was more satisfying.
That was very normal. After all, everyone had different tastes. There were also many players who preferred traditional combat modes like Repent and be Saved.
However, overall, after the combat system was updated, the overall evaluation of players was gradually increasing.
This was because Eternal Samsara provided players with a different kind of combat experience. Even players who weren't used to it would feel like it was a new experience.
Not only that, but the automatic parrying mechanism of the Demon Sword had also been studied and understood.
Previously, some players had already discovered that if they only used one Demon Sword, the more they died, the more frequently they would have to parry.
Of course, only about one-third of the map was released in the first part. Therefore, there was a limit to the Demon Sword's Demon Points. It could not achieve the effect of fully automatic parrying.
After this update, two-thirds of the game's scenes were completed. Players could now enter some of the later stages of the game.
Under such circumstances, the Demon Sword's automatic parrying skill would be triggered more frequently. What's more, the type of parrying would slowly change from imperfect parrying to perfect parrying. The damage reduction effect would become more and more obvious!
Many people speculated that when they reached the last third of the game content, such as Yama's Palace, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Infernal Hell, and other later stages, as long as they died enough times, the Demon Sword might be able to achieve the effect of a fully automatic, perfect parry.
That meant that it was easier to skip classes than Repent and be Saved!
Many people cheered. This was Boss Pei's pity!
Previously, Repent and be Saved's weapon, Pudu, was hidden very well. It was only found a few days after the game was released.
Obviously, this time, his' pity 'was even more obvious. Boss Pei had opened a door for lousy players.
Of course, lousy players would still continue to suffer in the front. It was impossible to win the boss by relying on the pitiful automatic parrying at the front.
However, as the difficulty of the game increased, the frequency of automatic parrying would also increase. That was equivalent to letting lousy players always have a guarantee.
As long as they were willing to suffer, they would be able to clear the game sooner or later.
Many lousy players would no longer have any burden. At most, they would slowly train their skills and die with the Demon Sword. In any case, even if they died, they would be able to accumulate fiendish points.
All in all, after the combat system of Eternal Fallen Samsara was updated, the previous controversial topics quickly calmed down. Players all expressed: How delicious!
However, the more he saw the comments improve, the more Meng Chang felt his heart ache.
"My commission!"
Meng Chang felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife. He could vaguely see a huge sum of money leaving him.
He reviewed his plan again and still felt that it was flawless. There was no problem at all.
He would first update the game's scenery and monsters three times, so that players would accumulate dissatisfaction in the process of suffering. Then, he would update the combat system and instantly turn something rotten into something magical.
However, because of the unexpected situation, the players' dissatisfaction did not accumulate at all. It dissipated because of the update of the combat system.
That was equivalent to the detonation of the Pei Consortium's publicity method being brought forward. The explosion would no longer cause such a huge sensation. Instead, the popularity would be spread out for a long period of time.
To Meng Chang, he probably would not be able to get a commission.
To Boss Pei, it did not seem to have achieved the best publicity effect.
Eternal Fallen Samsara was considered a success, but it could have obtained even more popularity!
The final amount of money earned by this downloadable content would not be too much, but it was not perfect after all.
Losing a month's commission was not a big problem. However, the key was that Meng Chang had deep doubts about himself.
"My plan was clearly in line with the requirements of the Pei Consortium's publicity method, but Boss Pei attacked mercilessly and disrupted my plan."
"But Boss Pei didn't say anything when I was promoting the game platform the last time. He even praised me?"
"Could it be that my understanding of the Pei Consortium's publicity method was completely wrong?"
"Could it be that the Pei Consortium's publicity method that I concluded was just a misunderstanding? The agreement that Boss Pei signed with me was not what I thought it was?"
Meng Chang could not understand.
"Eh? Who sent me a message? "
"Don't you know that I'm troubled?"
"Eh, Teacher Qiao."
Meng Chang did not want to look at the message at first, but he opened it after seeing that the sender was Teacher Qiao.
"Are you planning to make a video for the game this time? I don't mean anything else. I'm just asking. Don't collide. "
Obviously, Qiao Liang was planning to make a video for Eternal Fallen Samsara.
After all, from the current situation, the combat system of Eternal Fallen Samsara had been updated. The core content had been mostly exposed. He could start preparing the material for the video in advance.
When the last third of the scene was updated next week, the corresponding content would be added to the video. He could export it and publish it.
Qiao Liang did not know if Meng Chang would still analyze the video in the name of 'Young Master Tian', so he informed him in advance to prevent the video from colliding.
Meng Chang replied weakly, "I don't intend to make a video. Do whatever you want."
The publicity plan had been ruined, and the commission was gone. What was there to make a video of!
Previously, Meng Chang had been ambitious to listen to Boss Pei's suggestion and make the account 'Young Master Tian' into an internet celebrity account with fixed fans like 'Teacher Qiao'.
However, he was like a deflated ball now. He could not muster up any energy.
Not long after, Qiao Liang sent another message.
"Understood, leave the interpretation task to me this time."
"That's right, there's something else I want to ask you about."
"Eternal Fallen Samsara did not seem to be updated according to the previous plan. Did something happen in the middle? Why did the content that was originally scheduled to be updated at the end of the month be updated in the second week? "
"Is there a problem with internal communication, or did they change their minds for some special reason?"
Obviously, Qiao Liang was very curious about this.
He knew that Tengda Games was a very mature department. Any ordinary employee in it would not be an ordinary person.
He had created so many games with Boss Pei. Even an idiot could become a game design master, right?
However, there were no problems with the many 3A masterpieces that had been released with huge investments previously. Instead, there was a problem with a small downloadable content. That was really strange.
Meng Chang did not want to say it at first. After all, it would be a little embarrassing if he said it out.
However, on further thought, Qiao Liang might be able to solve his doubts?
Until now, Meng Chang still could not understand why Boss Pei wanted to disrupt his publicity plan and ignite the accumulated popularity in advance.
Qiao Liang might not know marketing, but he knew games and Boss Pei!
This time, Eternal Fallen Samsara was a game project after all. Qiao Liang might be able to see some clues.
Meng Chang also felt that his actions were a little desperate. However, this matter was very important after all. He was very eager to know what was going on.
Thus, he simply described how Yu Fei was forced to become the main planner, his own publicity plan, and how he made a mistake by cooperating with them.
Qiao Liang fell into a short silence after listening.
"I see, I understand."
"I have two ideas about the deeper meaning behind Boss Pei's actions, but it's difficult to confirm it at the moment. I have to think about it and verify it from many sources before I can have a very accurate answer. "
"How about this, wait for my new video!"
