Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 600 Switch Version (more)

Unsurprisingly, the previous episode of Dark Souls created a wave of abuse in the player community. After all, the game was very topical and had a very explosive live broadcast effect.

In all respects, the Dark Soul prequel continues the Dark Soul and its success. Even under such perverse difficulties, the sales of the prequel were higher in the days before the launch!

More surprisingly, the Switch version of Dark Souls sold very well, even with the host up sales.

The world's largest student in the bedroom.

Several game design boys are watching a boy play Dark Souls on Switch.

Basically every player who buys SWITCH chooses to buy Dark Souls, which is by far the best selling, highest-quality RPG game SWITCH has ever sold, at a very friendly price that makes no sense to buy.

Even a lot of people have heard that this game is abusive, but they choose to buy it and play it, so refund it anyway if they are abusive.

Not only because The Dark Soul is very highly rated, but also because it is the first game made with Pangu, and even if it is transplanted from the VR platform to the SWITCH platform, it is much better at performance than other games.

Several boys were watching and discussing behind them, with a leaping look on their faces.

“Don't tell me, I think this is a pretty good image. Although it is far from VR, the image is very clear! And the physics engine is good, which is much better than many PC games! ”

“Of course, VR games changed! Even if we simplify some content, the kernel is still there. ”

“And it feels like a great mode of operation, and the entire battle system of Dark Soul can be replicated! ”

“Yes, I've played in the VR game compartment at home before, and there's no big difference between the content of the game and the handset, and perhaps the biggest difference is the immersion, the mode of operation, and so on. ”

“Wow, I feel like this game is still hard to grab onto the palm, it hasn't diminished at all! Why am I dead again? ”

“Can you do it? Chicken, if you can't, change people! ”

“Hey, forget it, these two joysticks aren't as convenient to use as they are in the VR game cabin. ”

“Oh, that's what you won't use, or let me! This mode of operation was already used to when playing Super Mario Odyssey, but it was easier and less tiring to play this game on a handheld than on a VR. ”

“Don't tell me, I feel like this is working really well, I've been wanting to buy a TV! ”

“Isn't it good to play with your palm phone? Besides... I bought a TV, just this bedroom, put it where...”

“How big is the TV screen? The resolution is not the same on the TV as on the handset. Besides, the TV is not expensive, it can be done for over a thousand dollars. Put it in the bedroom and play" The Dark Soul "with this... Shh, shh, this painting is beautiful! ”

“That makes sense... but the cost of living this semester] has already been reported to the police! Almost spent it all on the game... first slow down, in another two months..."

Several of the students in this dormitory listened to Chen Jiao's lectures and were among the first to buy Switch.

The four of them were collecting money to buy the console, and now Dark Souls and Dark Souls are sold together on Switch. They can't play VR, but they can have fun on Switch.

However, some players have just come into contact with the Switch mode of operation, and some are not adapted to this unique mode of operation.

Ultimately, there is no host in the world, and these players are not familiar with the operating mode of the handle.

Their most familiar mode of operation is that of the phone, PC, and VR, either touchscreen, keymouse, or mind.

Just as many PC players feel very uncomfortable and unwieldy just when touching the handle, it takes a while to experience the comfort of the handle operation.

On the one hand, the key position, many people find it very inconvenient when pressing the L and R keys above, especially with R1 as the primary attack key, and many PC players are less used to it.

On the other hand, controlling the movement and perspective of a person through a joystick is also somewhat uncomfortable, especially when using a right joystick to control the perspective, and many players are busy fighting.

However, players who had previously become familiar with the game through Super Mario Odyssey did not reject this mode of operation at all, but found it very convenient.

Some even find it more comfortable to play like this than the VR game cabin.

On the one hand, immersion is weak, the horrible atmosphere in the game is less scary, and there is more room for calm thinking and manipulation without the risk of a heart attack at any time.

On the other hand, Switch's mode of operation is a very mature one, so it perfectly replicates the entire Battle System of Dark Souls.

Of course, there is a difference between the two versions. For example, in the VR version, the player can choose the specific part of the backstabbing monster himself, and the damage and result will vary depending on the part being attacked.

Certain fixed backstabbing can have an execution effect, while some backstabbing can amount to only one common attack with higher damage, depending on the results of the Pangu system physics engine.

The Switch version, on the other hand, is closer to the original Dark Soul of Chan's past life. The backstabbing only triggers and does not trigger two results. The only trigger is to calculate a value based on the weapon, which is equivalent to a simplified version.

But even with simplification, Dark Souls on the Switch platform is still a very fun game.

After many people played Switch's version of Dark Soul, it came as a surprise that this tiny handset could really achieve so many complex features that even a perfect battle system like Dark Soul could be replicated!

The keys on the entire palm handle seem small, but they have their own pattern and are arranged in a very reasonable way.

Didn't know that this handle was designed in an unfamiliar past life and was the best layout that the hosting industry could shape after many years of development, including the design of left and right joysticks and several function keys to perfectly adapt to the operational requirements of most games.

This is a very convenient, highly concentrated mode of operation.

In Chen Jiao's past life, for some senior host players, this handle design is already very perfect, and many manufacturers can't even innovate because there is little room for further improvement in this design model.

But for the people of the world, the design of this handle is very new, because they've never seen it before.

The release of the Switch version of Dark Souls is a win-win, and for Dark Souls, it further expands the player base to include players without VR pods; for Switch, it also boosts its sales with the name Dark Souls.

Of course, Chen Yu won by himself.
