September 1st, Dark Souls is officially available!

The national uniform and other language versions are available simultaneously, and the game contains two built-in voices in Chinese and English.

Downloads of Dark Souls began to climb, both domestically and abroad.

Because technically, The Dark Soul is the first game that uses artificial intelligence to create a physics engine. Knight Glory is early to release information, but because R&D is slower, it will be more than a week later.

This makes Dark Souls the world's first game to use AI physics engines, and Scorpion is one of a kind.

Overseas, Thunderbolt mutual entertainment has also gained a great reputation. It is considered by many foreign players to be a Western phantom factory, and it is hoped that this game can continue the success of such games as Warcraft Competition, Dark Destruction God and League of Heroes.

Players from all over the world enter The Soul of Darkness with great expectations.

Soon, however, they encountered the same problem as the store players, the first time they doubted the difficulty of the game!

These people can be said to have died in the game of tragedy and inhumanity, and even on the first day many people were caught on their way to the fire sacrifice yard and were abused by Guda teachers to make their lives irrelevant.

And in VR mode, this battle is even more exciting. Fortunately, Chen Qiao's standard for "Dark Souls" is to play the game of terror, which will detect the player's blood pressure, heartbeat and other indicators, otherwise there may be big news.

Foreign players are okay, because most of the Western phantom themes that European and American players like are some hardcore players, and after accepting this difficulty, it's very enjoyable to play, but it's interesting.

Moreover, they have not experienced unfamiliar neglect, nor have they come to play this game with the expectation of a "lawn mowing game”.

But when have domestic players ever suffered like this? On the first day of the game, the official forum of Dark Souls blew up instantly!

“What's going on? This game is too hard, my first boss has died four or five times, and I feel like I can't fight it at all? ”

“Stop talking about boss, I don't know how I feel about playing weirdo so hard, where is the setup interface for the difficulty of adjusting this game? ”

“What about the lawn mowing game you promised, you liars!! ”

“After half a day, I was the grass, the monster cut me! Damn it! ”

A grudge at the forum said that Chen strangers watched a large number of grudges value accounted for. It was a joy.

Others in the project expressed deep concern about the situation.

Qian Xiao found the game too difficult from the start, now that he sees the feedback from the player, he feels he is right.

Others, including Su Jinyu and Zheng Hongxi, also felt very sore, as the vast majority of people tried this game after Dark Souls was created.

The conclusions are amazingly unanimous, so perverted! I can't play anymore!

If even the producers feel very painful fighting, not to mention the players...

There is a diving rule in the game design industry that if the designer finds the game to be just right, at least two more levels of difficulty are available for the player.

But here at Chen Yu, obviously, it doesn't work...

Several people found Chan in private: "Manager, don't you really need to lower the difficulty? At least give the player a choice of difficulty, right? ”

Chen Jiao shook his head: "No, the difficulty is just right now. Reduce the difficulty and lose the essence of the game. Players spend so much sweat to buy the game, castrate the content by lowering the difficulty, am I human? ”

Everybody's surprised, boss. What you found on your conscience isn't a place?

Clearly, Chen opened up a deliberate solitary mode, and no matter how many players protested against the difficulty of the game, he was indifferent and ignored.

Inevitably, the discussion of the game in the forum grew more intense, and players who were persuaded by Guda and Weird were posting the game blackened, but there were also many players who spontaneously rebutted it.

This can be clearly seen from the score of the Dark Soul game, which, despite a lot of bad reviews, has remained above 8.5, which is arguably a high score.

There are also many players who hit the back who spontaneously write game reviews to educate the newcomers to the pit.

“As the first player to enter the pit, The Dark Soul, give some advice to the new entrants. ”

“A lot of people say the game is difficult, and I thought so at first, but after defeating Guda, my point of view shifted. ”

“Is this game difficult? It's really hard. Boss chopped you just chopped three or four knives and took it away, but the game was characterized by the need to talk about technology, and after four days of playing, I can now take it almost unharmed if I open a new number to fight Guda. ”

“And it wasn't until Guda's trial that the game really started. On the high walls of Lothrik, you will also encounter more threatening enemies, even very malicious level designs. I was also very desperate when I first arrived at the Lothrik Wall, and it was like a real adventure, because you never knew what was waiting for you in front of you, and you never knew where you would die from a moment of negligence. ”

“But after clearing the Lothrik Wall, my view of the game changed again. Because I remember every battle I had before, I could even remember how many little freaks would be refreshed in every corner, and I would remember how skilled the boss was at every stage? I will remember what treasures are hidden everywhere. ”

“And that's exactly what I've never had in other games. In those games, I didn't even remember what was inside the map, what the terrain was, and I wandered around and walked out anyway. ”

“But in" The Dark Soul, "just a small scene like the Lothrik Wall, it took me a lot of energy and time. I can remember the location of every little weirdo, the dangers of every place, an experience that no other game has ever had. ”

“And as the game deepened, I discovered that there were many different kinds of npcs in the game, and in addition to defeating the main line mission of the Fire Summer King, there were many branch tasks. ”

“Even the various props in the game have a lot of stories, and I'm not going to be dramatic about them, and I hope you can understand them for yourself. ”

“This post was sent primarily to tell you that, in my opinion, Dark Souls is a very attentive game, with level designs, battle systems, and boss battle designs, all of which are industry benchmarks, and even none of the world's games are similar. ”

“This is a game of pure men, I hope you can taste it patiently and carefully, at least in my four days of game time, those seemingly invincible enemies in the pre-game period are actually not difficult at all, after you defeat them, you will get an impressive sense of accomplishment, I hope everyone will experience this! ”
