As soon as this remark was made, the fans on the bullet screen snorted.
"Old Qiao is at it again."
"Old Qiao starts sucking up to Tengda Games like crazy every time he sees it. He doesn't care about basic rules at all."
"I'm used to it! I'm used to it! In any case, Old Qiao is very objective in his review of any game except for Boss Pei's game. It's impossible to criticize. He's just bragging in different ways. "
"I can only say that he's Boss Pei, the god of game design."
"I wonder what the game will be like this time. I heard it's a cyberpunk theme. I'm looking forward to it."
"That's right. What's more, Tengda Corporation didn't do much publicity this time. It's all relying on the popularity of anti-fans to increase the game's attention."
"No, no, no. After the movie won the Golden Lion, it did receive a lot of attention."
"There's really no need for publicity and marketing at this level."
"That's good too. We can save all the marketing funds to polish the game."
The audience in Teacher Qiao's live-stream might be mocking Teacher Qiao's sucking up, but they were also looking forward to this game.
After all, most of Teacher Qiao's fans were loyal players of Tengda Games.
For game developers, game marketing had always accounted for a large part of the game's overall expenses. Some game companies' marketing funds were even equal to the development funds.
That was something that could not be helped. After all, it would be difficult to obtain high sales without these marketing funds and without fame.
However, the quality of the game would definitely be improved if they could really spend the marketing funds on research and development. However, only Tengda would dare to do such a unique thing.
Everyone was looking forward to the Future You Choose.
After chatting for a while, Teacher Qiao looked at the time and quickly refreshed the details page of the Morning Dew Game Platform.
As expected, "The Future You Choose" was officially released.
In fact, the option to purchase and pre-download had been opened yesterday. Of course, Teacher Qiao had done all the preparatory work in advance.
What's more, ever since the Morning Dew Game Platform was exposed, Tengda Corporation seemed to have stopped pretending. They ported their classic games to the Morning Dew Game Platform, bringing a large number of users to the platform.
Qiao Liang was one of the first game reviewers to enter the Morning Dew Game Platform. Seeing that the friend relationship on his Tengda account had been moved to the Morning Dew Game Platform, there was naturally no reason for him to experience it on other platforms.
The data on the Morning Dew Game Platform was interconnected with the game router. However, Qiao Liang still planned to buy another physical disc for collection.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the game was really fun and classic.
If the quality of the game itself dropped, Qiao Liang could only pretend that nothing had happened.
There was no need to say any more nonsense. Qiao Liang started the game immediately.
…
Tengda's game industry logos appeared on the screen, including Tengda Games, Shang Yang Games, Morning Dew Games Platform, Otto Technologies Game Router, and so on.
This game was jointly developed by Tengda Games and Shang Yang Games. It was also released simultaneously on Chao Lu Games Platform and Game Router.
It was followed by some noisy background music with a cyberpunk style of rock music.
A neon glow appeared on the black screen, as if it was an image that appeared in someone's mind after they fainted.
This scene gave people a chaotic and confused feeling. At the same time, it made people look forward to the scene after the black screen disappeared.
The noise gradually faded away, replaced by the whistling wind and the distant background sounds of the city.
The scene gradually appeared.
This was a view from a high altitude, and one could see the rows of future cities in front of them. The huge city group spread into the distance, and one could not see the end of it at a glance.
There seemed to be several places in the city filled with smoke, and there were battles going on.
Accompanied by the whistling of the biting cold wind, it inexplicably gave people a feeling of desolation.
The camera gradually pulled away, and Qiao Liang finally realized that he had seen someone's first person's perspective.
This lonely figure stood on the rooftop of the tallest building in the city. Through the tattered combat uniform, one could see that his right arm, left leg, and a part of his back were shining with a metallic luster. It should be a mechanical prosthesis.
One could see hideous scars on the skin where a small amount of muscles was exposed.
Suddenly, a few knocks came from behind.
Knock, knock, knock.
It seemed that some kind of metal was knocking on the security door at the top of the rooftop.
This lonely figure turned his head to take a look, revealing half of his face.
Only then did Qiao Liang notice that a large area of his entire face had been modified. The metal mandible, the mechanical prosthesis that emitted a long red light in the eye sockets made him look hideous like a mechanical skeleton.
On the other half of the human face that was relatively intact, his eyes revealed an extremely complicated emotion that was difficult to describe with words.
However, it was definitely not optimism, happiness, or relief.
The scene froze.
A new background music sounded. This time, it was still in the style of cyberpunk, but it was much more cheerful and compact.
A line of words appeared on the black screen.
Hope City, 10 years ago …
On the rooftop of a four-story building at the edge of the city, several soldiers were silently wiping the guns in their hands.
There was a figure in the middle of the scene, holding a telescope and looking at the distant street.
Qiao Liang immediately recognized that this figure was the protagonist who appeared on the tall building in the previous scene.
A soldier next to him asked excitedly, "Captain Lude, has the convoy arrived yet?"
At that moment, an introduction appeared next to the protagonist. Leader of the Resistance Army: Lude York.
The camera zoomed in on the protagonist's face. Although it was blocked by the telescope, Qiao Liang could still recognize that it was indeed the face on the tall building. Ten years ago, there were not so many mechanical modifications. He still looked like an ordinary person, but he was muscular and strong. He was obviously a battle-hardened warrior.
Lude's voice was very calm and confident. "Prepare for battle."
At his command, the Resistance Army soldiers around him immediately became active and began to prepare for battle.
At that moment, the camera switched to the image through the telescope. A convoy was seen coming from the wasteland in the distance, seemingly about to enter the city.
This convoy was about to enter the ambush site of the Resistance Army.
He adjusted the magnification of the telescope and locked onto the logo on the car.
Upwind Logistics …
…
Qiao Liang was stunned when he saw this.
It was actually Upwind Logistics?
That's not right. It was supposed to be a cyberpunk theme that alluded to monopoly companies like Home Corporation and Shengyun Corporation.
If they wanted to be sarcastic, shouldn't they have changed Shengyun Corporation's logo slightly and put it on?
Or should this convoy be playing the role of the good guy, and the Resistance Army was the villain?
That's not right either.
The first two scenes depicted the scene ten years later and ten years ago respectively. This person called Lude was obviously the leader of the Resistance Army. At the same time, he was also the protagonist that players had to control. They could not let players control a villain, right?
What's more, the Resistance Army had a very positive meaning, even more so in Cyberpunk. If this was a negative force organization, then it would be impossible. Logically speaking, it should not be called the Resistance Army.
What's more, the opening of the first scene actually left some suspense. There were two ways to interpret it.
Ten years later, Captain Lude stood on the tallest building in the city and looked down at the city. He found smoke everywhere in the city, which meant that the battle was still ending.
There were two possibilities. One was that the Resistance Army had won and finally captured the entire city. Captain Lude was on the roof, welcoming victory.
The other was that the Resistance Army had completely failed, and the opposing forces of the Resistance Army were cleaning up the mess. Captain Lude had become a commander without an army and ran to the rooftop alone. He welcomed his fate.
Both explanations seemed to make sense.
Finally, there was a knock on the door on the rooftop. This might be the subordinates of the Resistance Army reporting the battle situation to Captain Lude.
It was also possible that the army that surrounded him had already found his way to the door. The knock on the door was only to announce his final fate.
All in all, just looking at this opening gave people a confusing and difficult feeling.
In fact, Qiao Liang had made several guesses after hearing that The Future You Choose was a cyberpunk theme. He thought that he could roughly guess the plot of the game with his understanding of Boss Pei.
It was not just him. In fact, most players online, including people from the anti-Tengda Alliance, had already guessed in advance that the Future You Choose game and movie were going to smear the anti-Tengda Alliance companies.
By portraying a hopeless cyberpunk world for all to see. The evil consequences of these companies monopolizing the market would play a certain guiding role in reality and help Tengda win this battle of public opinion.
However, Qiao Liang realized that he had guessed completely wrong after entering the game.
How could there be any anti-Tengda Alliance companies here?
In the first scene, the players were going to smash Upwind Logistics' transport vehicles.
However, the battle began very quickly. Qiao Liang did not have time to think about these twists and turns. He quickly followed the game's instructions and quickly threw himself into the battle.
…
After putting on their exoskeletons, the Resistance Army warriors showed their abilities. They descended from the rooftop and rushed toward Upwind Logistics' convoy.
According to the background of the story, there was a relatively high level of technology after all. Thus, the weapons and armor they wore were more advanced than in conventional gunfighting games.
For example, the exoskeletons on their legs allowed players to jump greatly and move quickly. The smart weapons in their hands could also automatically aim and reduce the recoil.
The moment the Resistance Army approached Upwind Logistics' convoy, the convoy had already issued a warning through the broadcast. Then, the heavy machine guns on top of the convoy opened fire.
However, the Resistance Army team came prepared. First, they used heavy weapons to blow up a car, completely blocking the path of Upwind Logistics' convoy. Then, they concentrated their firepower to destroy the drone escort formation in front of the convoy.
During this process, Qiao Liang constantly adapted to the game's feel. He had to say that it was a little like the downloadable content of Ocean Stronghold and Mission and Choice back then. That was the process of the Skylark Team carrying out the decapitation operation against the Zerg Queen.
This combat method was similar to wearing the Skylark combat suit, but the technology level was slightly lower.
The protection of the convoy was not weak, but the Resistance Army warriors were all battle-hardened and had very strong firepower. Qiao Liang controlled the protagonist to kill in all directions. He felt like an amazing lone hero, playing the game to his heart's content.
However, just as he was feeling happy, another Resistance Army member's slightly anxious voice came from the communicator.
"Captain Lude, we have to destroy this batch of goods quickly. Tengda Corporation's reinforcements are already rushing over! "
