What is the experience of becoming a vampire

The supper that Xiang Kun took over temporarily is naturally not as good as the one he prepared meticulously, prepared the ingredients in advance, and pondered the recipe.

But fortunately, the ingredients that Tang Baona and Yang Zhener bought are also very expensive. The basic taste and taste are there. Xiang Kun only needs to make them without bad taste.

Moreover, the people who came tonight are now attracted by Xiang Kun's game. When eating, they are still discussing the content of the game.

Not only the people who played the game just before the meal, but the few people who arrived later watched it and listened to the "story" for a while. They were also full of interest, and they were also anxious to join the game after eating.

Zhang Qian asked Xiang Kun some things about the game while eating.

To be honest, when she was invited yesterday, she was a little surprised when she learned that she was coming to Tang Baona's house to try Xiang Kun's game today.

She didn't expect that the game Xiang Kun said before could be made so quickly.Even considering that Xiang Kun may have asked the team to help him, the development speed is indeed a bit faster-even if there is no rest during the Spring Festival, it is only more than half a month since Xiang Kun said he wanted to play games in Tongshi Town. .

Unless at that time Xiang Kun had already done almost the same, but from what he said at the time, it was not quite the same.

So before coming here today, according to Zhang Qian's prediction, a game made by Xiang Kun in such a short time is likely to be a relatively simple or even rudimentary "small game".

But now is the era of mobile Internet, and many "mini games" running on mobile platforms can be very prosperous and earn huge profits.Zhang Qian also has no doubt about Xiang Kun's abilities. Even if it is just a "mini game", the "mini game" that Xiang Kun made will definitely have something unique to the eye.

She is still very confident in Xiang Kun's ability.

But no matter what she thought, she did not expect that what Xiang Kun would make would be such a "game" in pure sound form.

When I first arrived here, when I heard Yang Zhen'er introduce how to play this game, the idea that came to Zhang Qian's mind was-isn't this just a running group game hosted by AI voice?This type of TRPG is still suitable for small circles and the opposite side of the line. It is difficult to do it online, right?

But after playing for a few hours, Zhang Qian knew that this game is very different from running group games and other role-playing games.

It does not require everyone to have a detailed role card, does not need to define various detailed attributes in advance, and does not need to understand various specific and complicated rules first. Basically, it only needs to define the name of the role and some basic characteristics at the beginning. Other games will be responsible for arranging, and you will learn about it slowly during the game.

In this game, the traditional game characteristics are actually greatly reduced. Basically, the player does not need to think and operate too much. The player is like listening to a story in which he is also involved. As time goes on, the sense of substitution will become more and more Come stronger.With various real-time sound effects and various BGMs, it can mobilize the player's emotions. As the plot progresses, it may be happy or sad, crying or laughing.

When playing other games, no matter how great the storyline of the game is, players seldom get out of the feeling of "playing" the game because the attributes of the "game" are too strong.

But in this game that Xiang Kun made, the voice that tells the story is very suitable for the content. Listening and listening, unconsciously immersed in the plot, the story, and then unconsciously began to seriously "play". Own role.

In different stories, different types of characters have different speaking styles. Generally speaking, it is difficult for ordinary people to express themselves in a voice different from their normal state.

Even Zhang Qian really couldn't let go of it at the beginning. In the story with the martial arts background, what she said was the style of the modern city.However, as the story progressed, her participation increased, and she unconsciously began to participate in the game in a language suitable for martial arts style. She opened her mouth and closed her mouth with "Xiongtai", "Long Yang", "Stay Step", "Main Seat", "Presumptuous", "Death to me!"...

This kind of real and in-depth acting, as well as communicating with other people and integrating into the plot, will give people the pleasure of living another life, and have a strong sense of participation in the events in the story.

And more importantly, Zhang Qian found that this model does not require to know a group of players in advance, does not need to be integrated into a small group first, and does not need to face each other and see each other-instead of seeing better and more convenient substitution , Will not affect each other.

Such a very low entry threshold is indeed very suitable for making online games, convenient for single users to join.

After the game was over, Zhang Qian thought about it for a moment, and was surprised that the technology embodied in this game was powerful.

The technology of speech recognition and conversion into text is not uncommon. Many major manufacturers have this technology and are already very mature.But Xiang Kun's speech recognition accuracy rate of the game and the accuracy of judging the content after recognition were very shocking to her.

This voice engine is also the one she has heard so far that looks the most real, the smoothest, and the emotional expressions are just right, and there are not too many blunt and abrupt aspects.

There is also the story line that is constantly changing and formed according to the choices of all players. It is also very smooth, and the various logical chains are perfect and clear.According to some conversations of the players in the early stage, they will even set up a foreshadowing in advance, and then "reverse" in the later stage to bring "surprise" to people.

This caused her to wonder if there was a real person behind the game, who was responsible for arranging the plot, and reading the side...

After dinner, I connected with You Meng, Liu Caifu of Tongshi Town, and Zicheng who had been waiting for a long time to explain the situation of the game through video connection, and then began to remotely teach them to install the game client and introduce the gameplay. .

After two hours, more than a dozen people all experienced a cyberpunk-style story together, and then everyone stopped unconsciously and started to open the video to discuss.

You Meng and Liu Caifu had basically no other opinions except shouting 666. They would vote according to their ability as much as they were asked. Anyway, they had already made a decision. It was not so much about investing in products or companies, as in investing in Kun.More is not how much money is paid, but a sense of participation.

Zicheng is also very excited. As an "industry person" with the same professional background as Xiangkun University, he is also very sensitive to the technology displayed in this game. He is a little doubtful whether this game was made by Xiangkun himself. Kun has actually cooperated with some giants, is this game jointly developed?But if that's the case, how can they get a chance?

Zhang Qian still asked the most questions.She is also the one who is most concerned about this matter. According to the share previously negotiated in Tongshi Town, she will also be the largest investor.

"Xiang Kun, have you ever thought about the charging method of this game? Is it to sell monthly cards or props?" Zhang Qian asked.

Xiang Kun smiled and said, "Well, leave this question to our operations director Tang Baona, Director Tang to answer."

Tang Baoting, Gao Yao, Yang Zhener and others immediately applauded and booed: "Director Tang, please speak."

Tang Baona glared at Xiangkun, and then she put down her glasses nervously, and said, "I'm not a director, and I don't know how to operate, but I have discussed this issue with Zhen'er, Lao Xia, and Xiang Kun these days. , Our idea is that it is completely free in the initial stage. After the number of players is stable, the fee is charged according to the number of games, and a fixed fee is charged. This one time is the meaning of a game story. This charge can be very low, mainly for players The psychological hint of money allows them to play each game more seriously. The main charging method is some personalized customization, such as modification of their own voice, such as more narration styles, background sounds, special effects sounds, BGM Other options include processing the game audio after the game is completed, and packaging it into an overall voice story for players to remember. These can all be charged."

Yang Zhen'er next to her looked at her laptop and said, "Hey, okay, the game we just played has been processed, come, come, you guys listen to it." He said, through the Bluetooth speaker, Played the game they just played.

Because it was recorded through Yang Zhener's client, the beginning was from Yang Zhener's perspective.Everyone is quite ashamed to hear their own voice speaking in the way of other roles from the speakers.

But after listening, they realized that they were different from the previous game. The background noise of these sounds was completely removed when they were recorded, and they were completely integrated with the background sound in the game, and the volume of the sound was also passed. After adjustments and certain modifications, it seems that the voices of the narration and other people are recorded in the same studio, which is very harmonious.

Not only that, in the process of the game, many blank paragraphs that need to be selected and preprocessed by the player are eliminated. The entire sound story sounds smoother, really like listening to a radio drama or an audio novel.

Yang Zhener said: "After the game goes live, we can also create competitions for player works, choose better, story-like works, give rewards, and even spend money to buy the copyright, make them into film and television dramas, and further promote them. Our games can also increase players’ motivation to play seriously and engage in situations when playing games."

Zhang Qian nodded. This is indeed a way to further increase the player's level of engagement. This feature is really good. As a player, she would like to save the audio collection, and she may take it out from time to time to listen to it.

"What if there is someone who is particularly troublesome? For example, if you don’t play seriously, you just don’t enter the scene, you just want to talk nonsense to make trouble? After all, it’s not a game played face-to-face or by people you know. It’s easy to match randomly. There will be fraud." Yang Zhuo raised his hand and asked his question.

Xiao Min next to him also nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. The two of them played King of Glory together last night, and were cheated by their teammates. If it wasn't for poverty, the phone would have been broken several times.

"Lao Yang, you are here to answer." Xiang Kun looked at Yang Zhener and said.

"Call me Director Yang!" Yang Zhener danced his fist at him, and then said to Yang Zhuo: "There will be a real-time reporting mechanism at that time, and the system will automatically determine if there is such a troublemaker, it will continue If the background of the story is disturbed, it will be replaced by the system. There will also be more control options for players to choose. For example, if you are tired of playing and don’t want to play, you can directly host the system or let the narrator arrange the character. It depends on whether you die or get out of the storyline in other ways. If you have to go away temporarily, or just want to simply'watch in', you can also let your character be suspended temporarily and not mentioned. Talk to the chef After playing for a long enough time, the player can even make the system imitate the player’s voice. When the player does not want to play, follow the story line to participate in and complete the game."

"I think this can be used for social networking! It is a different experience from ordinary text communication to establish the first impression through the voice in the story and meet other netizens!" Chang Bin said with some excitement.

"Isn't that the old YY?" Wang Han said.

"It's different. YY or other voice communication software, for people who are more introverted or less confident in their own voices, are just pure listeners, not participants. Should they dare to speak or dare not speak? .But in this game, everyone will be brought into it naturally, the voice communication will have a theme and platform, and every time there will be a different story and gameplay, even introverts can also use this kind of'play' Come and express." Chang Bin said thoughtfully.

Because during this time, Xiang Kun has already told Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er about some specific ideas about the game, and some of them are even thoughts derived from their experience, or they are proposed by them, so now they basically respond When Zhang Qian, Zicheng and others had their questions, they were both explaining. Everyone was discussing in full swing, but Xiang Kun slowly got out of it. Only when some technical issues were involved, would he come out to explain a few words.

He took the mobile phone and sent Lao Xia a WeChat, because he had just sensed through the coin on Lao Xia and found that she was still in the city’s airport, and according to the scheduled flight time, she should have arrived in Citong City. Correct.

Xiang Kun was a little worried, wouldn't Lao Xia fall asleep in the waiting room?After all, he drank blood yesterday and woke up at noon today. During this time, Lao Xia stayed all night and didn't sleep all night. It was normal to sleep in the waiting room.

I was hesitating whether to sense the pair of chopsticks that I gave to Lao Xia, and went to my dream to remind Lao Xia. WeChat received a reply:

"late."

Xiang Kun breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the plane was late.

Xiang Kun: "I thought you missed the plane when you fell asleep. In fact, you should sleep at night and leave tomorrow."

A few seconds later, Lao Xia sent a reply: a panda expression with laser light in her eyes.

This is telling Xiang Kun that she is energetic.
