Chapter 72 The Brave Fights the Demon King
Jiangning, food court.
It was in the evening, and the square was crowded with people. People were standing in front of various stalls and shops, and the air was filled with the aroma of various delicacies.
Chen Ba took Brother Dong and Xiao Lu into a store called Jingzhou Authentic Grilled Fish, and saw Wang Kun who had been waiting for a long time at table 7.
"Why are you here so slowly? By the way! Didn't Zhang Xiaojuan come with you?"
"I'm currently working on a DLC, so I'm quite busy."
After explaining the reason for being late, Chen Ba glanced at Wang Kun's disappointed expression and couldn't help complaining: "No, you don't ask other people, what do you mean by asking Xiaojuan alone?"
This guy has bad intentions!
He discovered during the last studio move that Wang Kun probably liked Zhang Xiaojuan, but was too embarrassed to speak.
During this period, Akun often found various reasons to invite Chen Ba, Xiao Lu and others out for dinner. I'm afraid the invitation to treat guests is a lie, and finding opportunities to have more contact with Zhang Xiaojuan is the real thing.
"If you want to date her, then go ahead and date her!"
After all, they are good buddies, so Chen Ba didn't hide it. He simply opened the skylight and said openly: "You have been dating us all the time. I don't know you very well. I will be embarrassed to come back after a few visits."
Kunkun's brain is lacking.
I felt embarrassed to ask out a girl, so I found an excuse to ask out her colleague to create opportunities for contact.
But it's okay to have this kind of dinner once or twice, but if it happens more often, the girl will be thin-skinned and feel that the relationship is not that familiar, so naturally she will be embarrassed to come again.
"Is such that……"
Yang Dong also noticed Wang Kun's intentions for Zhang Xiaojuan, and made a suggestion: "Don't ask us out next time, go directly to her. If someone is interested in you, then you can take this opportunity to cultivate feelings."
"What if she's not interested in me and can't make a date?" Wang Kun asked stupidly.
"Then let's try another way!"
Chen Ba held the menu with a very speechless expression: "I don't understand why you like Xiaojuan's style? If I remember correctly, don't you like the cute and pure style?"
"She has such a cute smile!"
"That's it?"
Chen Ba didn't expect that the reason why Wang Kun liked Zhang Xiaojuan was so simple. Just because she had a cute smile, so he fell in love with her at first sight?
"The partners my parents introduced to me were quite beautiful, but I didn't like their personalities. I didn't think they were the kind of women who would live a down-to-earth life."
When the beer was served, Wang Kun opened a bottle and said, "She is indeed not that beautiful, but I like this kind of gentle and cheerful girl. I am very happy to be with her."
"Okay, brothers, I'll try my best to help you."
Now that the conversation has come to this point, Chen Ba thinks he can try to bring them together. It's hard to say whether it will work, but he must help his brother.
Brother Dong and Xiao Lu also said they would act as wingmen and try their best to help Wang Kun create opportunities.
Eaters are soft-mouthed, but takers are short-handed.
Akun treated everyone to so many meals, so it was not a big problem to do a small favor. But again, no one can guarantee that it will be 100% successful.
"Come on, come on, eat fish, eat fish!"
After receiving the assurances from several wingmen, Wang Kun was very happy and asked everyone to start quickly so as not to waste this table of delicious food.
"By the way, Brother Ba!" Wang Kun asked curiously while picking up food, "After finishing "Star Emperor", will you make a new game?"
"Yes!"
Chen Ba, whose mouth was full of oil after eating, said without raising his head: "Brother Dong and I have already discussed the new game. It is probably an RPG adventure exploration game in which brave men fight demon kings."
"A brave man fights the devil?"
"That's right!"
Before Chen Ba spoke, Yang Dong took the initiative to explain: "It sounds a bit cliché, but it's not what you think."
"In the background of the story, the player will play the role of a summoned hero, obeying the king's order to rescue the princess kidnapped by the devil..."
This kind of cliche story about a brave man fighting a demon king is, to be honest, not very nutritious, and everyone is tired of hearing it.
But that's not important in the first place.
In adventure games, the important thing is the process of taking risks, not why you take risks. The brave man went to rescue the kidnapped princess, just to lead to the adventure experience later.
This is Tianba Studio’s first attempt at this type of RPG adventure game.
To this end, Chen Ba also specially conceived a set of equipment career systems and a complete framework for the Western Fantasy Sword and Magic world.
"The game has multiple maps. Players need to explore, recruit teammates, unlock more powerful equipment and advanced professions, and improve attributes to defeat the devil."
The game content is quite rich.
Although it sounds like this is a mindless grinding game where you download monsters, improve character attributes and equipment, and finally defeat the devil.
But that's not the case.
The game has a high degree of freedom. Although the plot is very rough and concise, there is a lot of content for players to explore.
Such as the favorability system!
There are multiple towns in the game, each with its own characteristics. Some are gathering places for dwarves, some are elven tribes...
In these town maps, there are an extremely large number of NPCs living. If a brave man gets tired of fighting monsters, he can also chat with these NPCs and have a heart-to-heart talk.
After the favorability reaches a certain level, the NPC will follow the hero, and even if the favorability is enough, the NPC can be married to the NPC.
"This is good, this is good!"
Wang Kun clapped his hands repeatedly and said: "It seems not bad to fall in love with an elf girl in a different world."
"sure!"
Yang Dong smiled and said: "Forget about elf girls, you can marry any duke's daughter, sassy female swordsman, charming female mage, or dwarf blacksmith."
"When the time comes, you will form a big harem group to defeat the Demon King, and spread your dog food in front of the Demon King..."
This is a game with a high degree of freedom, and these are things that are completely possible.
However, the core gameplay of this game is to recruit and train teammates. A brave man must have helpers to defeat the devil.
In other games, most of the protagonists designate teammates, that is, the candidates for the "brave team" are arranged in advance.
But their new game is different.
"I feel that the teammates designated by the game developers for the brave cannot meet the wishes of every player."
Chen Ba swallowed a mouthful of grilled fish and said with a smile: "So in our game, there are no fixed teammates. Players can freely choose their favorite partners and embark on a journey to defeat the devil together."
This is the core gameplay of the game.
Players can form the most satisfying team of heroes according to their own preferences, and then train them to defeat the devil together.
You can form a brave team full of cute elf girls, a team full of muscular men, or a harem group...
There are no restrictions.
After NPC joins the brave team, you can collect and build equipment for them, promote them to specialized combat professions, and improve various attributes.
Even the old-fashioned village chief, the street vendor selling apples, the tavern owner who is lame on one leg... with careful training, they can accompany you to defeat the devil!
