Chapter 920: More Pets (Ergon)

This concern is shared by many players.

Because we know that dogs also have autonomy, so many players will see it as a real dog. Plus, they can change the color and shape of their dogs independently. Everyone's dogs are different, so it's easy to have feelings for their dogs, and naturally they are worried about what to do about their low mood.

In response, the Oasis website also provides an explanation for this dog update.

In short, while a dog is intellectually close to a normal dog, its memory is limited only in one way.

In other words, dogs are forgetful.

The reason for lowering its memory is mainly to prevent some of the player's misconduct from causing more severe psychological trauma to the dog that cannot be remedied.

Dogs have a slightly worse memory than normal dogs, and in order to compensate for this, an additional parameter added to the program is "intimacy”, an attribute that grows with the time the player spends with the dog and will, to some extent, affect the dog's behavior towards the player.

That is, if a player has left the dog alone for a long time for reasons such as busy work, AFK, etc. causing some psychological trauma, then that's okay, and soon the dog will forget about it, but because of the nature of intimacy, the dog's feelings for the player will only fade slightly, but will not forget the owner.

Sounds complicated, in fact, it just reduces the time cost and the difficulty of having a dog while avoiding some uncontrollable events.

In addition, special regulations have been made, such as that after the player purchases the domestic robot service, the domestic robot helps feed the dog when the owner forgets to feed the dog; in addition, when the player is away for a long time, the player is provided with foster care, in fact, the artificial intelligence system of the dog is temporarily switched off, causing it to fall into “hibernation”.

On the face of it, there may be a bit more to doing this system. Why not just do it according to the real dog? Why adjust this attribute and adjust that attribute?

In fact, the system is mainly prepared for the future. The animals to be done in the future will not only be harmless animals such as dogs and animals. From now on, the properties of artificial intelligence will be constantly adjusted, and other animals will only become more realistic and able to meet the needs of diversity.

……

Soon, the Oasis updated the pet system.

In the dog category, there are dog breeds such as Thai Sun, Shiba, Akita, Golden Hair, Sleigh, etc.; cats have more options such as Ying Short, Beautiful Short, Panther Cat, Siam, etc.

Of course, none of these pets are for nothing, they have to be bought for money...

Prices are much cheaper than real dogs. In real life, the price of wooden dogs is generally around 1000 to 6000. This range is relatively loose, but the purer the pedigree, the more expensive it is, and the price of some high-end wooden dogs may run into the tens of thousands.

But in Oasis, it's 100 times the price, just 60 bucks.

As for other dogs or cats, this is basically the same price. The market price for medium and high-end cats is 100 times the price. For example, the price for Puppet Cats is around 8,000 to 15,000, and the market price for "Inside the Oasis" is 150. For farm dogs or orange cats, the price is within 10 yuan.

There will be discounts on individual occasions, but overall this price is unlikely to change and is relatively fixed. After all, the value of these pets as a virtual commodity must be preserved or their rarity and sales will be severely affected.

Beyond that, there are some very moth pets like crocodiles, python...

In theory, stranger pets can also be raised, but consider the size of the market. After all, for every new artificial intelligence developed, there is a corresponding R&D cost.

In addition to this, there are some particularly precious pets that are not even allowed in real life, such as pandas, tigers, lions, golden monkeys... These pets must be a big market, but if you want to go out, you should also take into account social opinion, relevant laws and regulations, etc., so there is no rush to introduce them, mainly cats and dogs in the previous period.

After the entire pet system went live, the players said that Nima had picked eyes!

Selecting pets is more tangled in reality and there are very few pets to choose from, both in terms of time and money alone, to screen out most players.

They know puppet cats are adorable and sticky, but basically no one has to pay $10,000 to buy one, except for a few indigenous people.

But in Oasis, it only costs over $100!

Of course, virtual pets definitely have a lot of problems compared to real pets, the biggest problem is they can't be touched and can't be touched. Even if it's sophisticated, it finally feels different from the furry hand of a real cat.

However, there are also advantages, such as saving time and effort.

Previously virtual pets did not possess intelligence and were very limited in attraction to players, but now pets feel almost exactly like live animals, which greatly enhances their appeal to players.

A lot of people are struggling. Is it a firewood, a puppet, or a husky?

After all, it's a virtual pet, the beachfront mansion is huge, and having a big dog doesn't have to remember to bathe it every day, so the range of options is huge.

A lot of players decide, why not buy a few more!

You can have up to three pets in the mansion at the same time, you can buy a lot, but you can only release three. If you want to put more out, you have to pay extra for the field...

Well, we've all gotten used to this charging strategy. Chen stranger's free games have always been this urine, spending so much money on warming up. What does it cost to have a couple of dogs open a few fields?

The player crowd immediately started a wave of pet buying, pet feeding, and continued to show a proliferation trend.

After all, it's so cheap. After all, it's so real, it costs a hundred and ten bucks to play, beauty!

……

……

Soon there will be some pet-related games on the market, both domestic and foreign.

Artificial intelligence technology is open to S-class designers in several countries, and big companies like Dynasty and Zen Entertainment are naturally available, divided into a few people to make a pet game, without any effort.

But the problem is, here in Oasis, it's not easy to...

Everyone knows that virtual pets are a new hotspot under the boost of AI, but the question is, who's this early as Chen's strange layout?

Oasis has been online for over a year, and it integrates most of the gaming resources of Thunder Recreation. It can be said that all the Thunder Recreation players with VR game compartments have Oasis. It's like a landing space for games. At this time, you told me about a new electronic pet, even if it's free, the players are lazy to install it!
