Chapter 6: 6
Despite the unanimous skepticism of the audience, Kelly Johnson didn't care and opened the webpage to search the official website of Snowflake Games.
"Brothers, this is a new game company. Their games can't be found on general game platforms; you have to go to their official website to download."
While downloading the game, Kelly explained.
"In addition, this is a mobile game, but it supports PC as well. We'll use the computer to play it today. If you want to play later, you can go to their official website. Remember, it's called Snowflake Games!"
Kelly emphasized.
And when they heard her words, the audience questioned why they even needed to go to the official website. Such a big deal? Even Penguins can be found on general platforms, but they can't?
What a pretentious game company!
Amidst various doubts, Kelly finally downloaded the game and registered a Snowflake Games account.
There was no link to purchase the game; she entered directly.
Many people were surprised!
This is really free, with no link to purchase the game? Are there really game companies that give benefits to players?
Enter the login interface.
A white, holy passage appeared in front of her, and melodious music played in her ears.
"What?"
"This login interface looks okay?"
"This music sounds so good!"
"It seems the quality of this free game is a bit different from what I imagined?"
"The quality looks good!"
The audience began to put away their preconceived notions of junk games. At least just looking at the login interface, it's more carefully crafted than many games on the market.
Soon, the game was almost loaded, and Kelly logged into the account.
Hum!
Entering the game, the first animation is the scene where the traveler, the player character, encounters the first clash with the villain representing the spokesperson of [Tianli].
Simple fighting animations instantly grab the audience's attention.
"Wow!"
"This animation is well done!"
"This villain's moves are a bit impressive, and there are even red squares, what a fighting method!"
"The two characters are also very well done, very detailed."
"It's not the same as the inferior junk game I imagined. This quality is actually a free game?"
"Let's wait until we enter the game to see."
At this point, the audience's mindset fluctuated, and they all began to seriously examine the game.
At least for now, they dismissed the idea of a bad game.
After the cutscene ended, when it came to the character selection link, Kelly hesitated and chose the male protagonist, naming her game ID Dumpling.
After the selection is completed, another cutscene plays, showing the scene where Paimon meets the traveler, and the animation ends just as the game begins.
The game presents a screen from a third perspective.
Kelly followed the character's guidance, and in the process, she found that this game was very different from the games she had played before.
Other games restrict characters from moving within certain areas.
But this game...
There are no restrictions; you can move freely!
Go wherever you want!
And the map scene is beautifully set, with haystacks by the roadside, trees between stones, blue sky, and an endless sea.
It's like a real world!
"Wow!"
Kelly exclaimed, "Brothers, the degree of freedom in this game is very high, there are no limits to the scope of the character's activities. You can go anywhere, I can even go into the sea!"
"And I can chop down trees, climb mountains, and pick fruits. Killing this rabbit will even give you meat!"
"What about those who said this game was a low-quality mini-game just now? Speak up!"
The audience followed Kelly's perspective and couldn't help but exclaim when they saw her operation in the game.
This game is indeed completely different from the free game they imagined.
"This game looks really good!"
"The degree of freedom is very high!"
"Now those games on the market can only be played in specific areas. This game really lets you go wherever you want!"
"Cut down trees? Can the fallen items be used to build houses?"
"What's the use of that meat? I'm curious."
At this point, many viewers' attitudes towards the game changed, but more people felt they were only seeing the beginning.
Exactly how the game will be played is unknown.
What if it's just a beautiful picture?
In the current game market, the picture quality of every game is very high, but the gameplay is often lacking. Maybe this one is too?
Regardless of the thoughts of these audiences, Kelly followed the directions and continued to move forward.
When climbing over a mountain, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, and a vast plain appeared before her.
This scene suddenly made all the audience in the live broadcast room exclaim.
"Wow!"
"I thought it was just that corner before. I didn't expect this map to be so big. Can you pass through these places?"
"There's a white mountain over there, a snow mountain? And this too?"
"Awesome!"
"Speaking of which, the picture quality of this game is really high, and almost every frame can be cut out as a mobile wallpaper!"
"Other game scenes are also well done and good-looking, but they can only be seen and not visited. According to the degree of freedom of this game, those beautiful places can not only be seen but also visited in person!"
This is also the most surprising point for the audience. With the current technology, it is not difficult to make a good-looking scene.
But letting the player personally enter the screen scene, no game has ever done it.
However, this game does it!
As Kelly continued to move forward with the game guidelines, the audience realized that it was too early for them to start feeling emotional.
When they saw the six-winged dragon Twarin flying by in the woods.
When they stepped into the wind, they saw the lush towering giant tree and the boundless wilderness.
When they saw all kinds of Western-style buildings in Mondstadt, every street and every stone staircase, they were actually presented in front of them.
They were shocked!
Shocked!
These scenes and buildings that only appear in anime and movies can actually be presented in the game world.
Players can experience it all.
And...
It's still a free game!
"I admit that I spoke a little too soon!"
"Brilliant!"
"This game just subverts my perception of traditional games. It's not just that the scene looks good; the degree of freedom is so high!"
"Those pictures can not only be seen, but now you can also feel them and touch those things with your own hands!"
"And it's still a free game!"
"I'm so impressed!"
"The only regret is that this game was set up based on a Western background. Mondstadt is completely Western architecture."
The game background is set with the backdrop of the Western world, which is the unified style of games on the market today. Although there are many good games among them, it also makes players regret.
There are also many beautiful scenes in our own culture, and there are many traditional elements worthy of being used in the game!
But so far, no game has been made.
