New System Rules

Chapter 131 New System Rules

These words left Wang Yuhan speechless.

I'm so used to calling him "President Chen" that I've completely forgotten that the person in front of me is a senior in college who hasn't graduated yet.

With graduation season fast approaching, Wang Yuhan asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Does President Chen also need to take care of graduation-related matters?"

"Of course, so I won't be deeply involved in the studio's next project, and I probably won't have much time for it."

At this point, Chen Xuan sighed.

Like many film and television majors, game design students can earn some academic credits by winning awards or demonstrating outstanding performance.

For example, he doesn't need to pay attention to courses such as game narrative, game design principles, level and system design.

However, I still need to catch up on the other courses to pass the exams.

Zhou Qian was in the same boat; they were brothers in misfortune.

Wang Yuhan nodded and continued the previous topic.

"However, as a hunting game, the monsters in the picture don't look easy to mess with, like that Deviljho that looks like a pickle."

"This is to allow the universal joint to take them down without any psychological burden. Besides, some of these monsters are killed by the plot, not by the players themselves." As he spoke, Chen Xuan took out his tablet and showed a piece of artwork, "such as the Lavasioth, which leaves a deep impression in the plot."

Upon seeing the original artwork above, Wang Yuhan's eyes lit up.

Even girls can't resist this charm.

So cool!

It was a colossal ancient dragon carrying a volcano on its back, with several special organs on its back for heat dissipation, and its entire body was covered with black, hard rock skin formed after the magma cooled, resembling a moving mountain.

Then Chen Xuan made a few more deceptive statements, such as "reducing the difficulty of hunting by preparing in advance," "dynamically adjusting the game difficulty," and "teaming up can provide a better gaming experience."

After hearing this explanation, Wang Yuhan finally began to believe it to some extent.

This time she didn't bring any intern reporters, and her notebook was filled with scribbles and shorthand notes.

She looked at the items on it, nodded in satisfaction, and couldn't help but smile.

This time, we can finally shake off the negative impact of that Dark Souls guide.

These things can't just be made up, right?

Players will finally stop judging her.

I, Wang Yuhan, am not a comedic reporter!

Seeing the light in her eyes, Chen Xuan felt a pang of pity.

Isn't this kind of deception a bit too much?

Thinking about how this poor reporter would be relentlessly criticized by the players later, I felt a little sorry for him.

Since that's the case, let's make some compensation.

So Chen Xuan waved his hand.

An extra spot was added so she could try out Monster Hunter: World without having to wait in line.

Chen Xuan wasn't worried that she would find the game difficult.

The monsters shown in the demo version are at a level that any player with basic action game skills can defeat with a little effort.

This game is quite different from Dark Souls, where it starts with a tutorial by Gundyr.

The first true teacher is the newbie killer you'll encounter after the refund period has passed, and also the strictest teacher, Anjanath.

Then there's the horned dragon, which is even more difficult.

Odogaron not only suffered from hyperactivity, but also from environmental problems.

After defeating Nergigante, they faced their first graduation exam.

Wang Yuhan is a female gamer who plays games often. Although she suffered a lot in Dark Souls, she is still a player who has completed the game. She won't be stuck by this little bit of difficulty.

After Wang Yuhan left.

"Luckily, I managed to fool Wang Yuhan."

Chen Xuan was in a good mood. He opened the system and planned to take the opportunity to try his luck with a ten-pull.

The efficiency of collecting armor penetration in Dark Souls did not meet expectations.

Fortunately, the game became so popular that many players who came specifically to try it out did so.

However, not all species have the patience or skill to complete the game.

They just thought, how difficult could a game be? Is it really worth making it sound so incredibly difficult online?

Then I completely broke down.

Therefore, the efficiency of continuously gaining armor penetration value is not low.

But as soon as he opened the system panel, the slight upturn of his lips froze.

problem occurs!

Before he could even draw a prize, a new system rule popped up.

[Given the rapid expansion of the host company's scale and player base, resulting in a significant increase in the amount of defense penetration points gained, the following rules are hereby added.]

[1. When a player is playing the host's game, if genuine joy is detected, the player's defense threshold will be reduced.]

2. Establish a project settlement cycle. If the defense penetration value is positive at the time of settlement, it will still be used as the system's designated currency; if the defense penetration value is negative, the absolute value will be converted into cash proportionally, and the proportion may increase or decrease.

3. If a project is not sold within the current settlement period, the settlement will be postponed to the next period.

[3. Added a new armor penetration value exchange shop; shop items are refreshed regularly]

[5. To compensate the host and increase the probability of obtaining high-quality rewards when drawing prizes, a game gift box will be given as a gift, with the prize being random.]

"No way, system, are you treating me like I'm nothing?" Chen Xuan's face darkened, and he felt an urge to curse.

The biggest impact of this change is that defense penetration value is no longer an instant currency.

Instead, the settlement is done at the end of the cycle, just like a regular salary payment.

But thinking about it again, I can understand it.

When the game becomes too large, like GTA5, it may not need to be designed to make players feel vulnerable.

Even the slightest mistake or oversight will displease many players, potentially leading to a red temperature or even a breakdown in defense.

For example, the line "Ni-ge~" spoken by some characters at the beginning.

That would make acquiring armor penetration value far too easy.

I glanced at the settlement cycle.

[Due to the progress of the new project, the settlement date will be shortened accordingly.]

Current Project: Monster Hunter: World

Settlement period: 20 days

So short?

Chen Xuan frowned slightly and began to think about the promotion of "Monster Hunter: World".

The game's popularity is no longer a concern; Asylum Studios now generates its own buzz.

The key question is, who should be attracted to play the game?

Chen Xuan had thought of this during the interview just now.

It attracts casual players, novice players, players who have never played action games, and even female players!

They never mention the game's difficulty; they just want to lure these players in and rake in their defenses first.

As for how difficult the game truly was later discovered by players, after veteran ASS players and masochists flocked in, they enjoyed the frustration of being beaten and having their defenses deducted...

Let's talk about it later.

I can't worry about that anymore.

Therefore, when promoting the game, we can't follow the rules. We must increase the defense threshold as much as possible within the effective time before the old ASS and masochists get their fill of abuse.

This time, the business deal will not be given to content creators in the traditional single-player game category.

For those content creators who focus on beauty, pets, food, fashion, borderline male celebrities, and parenting.

Monster Hunter: World contains no sexual innuendo, no nudity, and no gore; it's a typical 12+ game.

game.

I'm not worried about teaching children bad things, but rather that even very young children simply can't play this kind of game.

Thinking about this...

Chen Baipiao nodded in satisfaction. "I'm a genius."

I glanced at the system panel again.

[Defense Penetration Value Detected from Wang Xiaoming +1]

[Wang Xiaoming's genuine joy was detected; defense threshold -1]

It's already started?

I glanced at the gift box.

After hesitating for two seconds, Chen Xuan decided not to open it yet.

It clearly states above that it's a game gift box.

I already have Monster Hunter: World, so I'm not in a hurry to start it.

It's not too late to start when you really don't know what game to make.
