Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

With the advancement of time day by day, the day when "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" will be launched has also arrived.

On major websites and live broadcast platforms, the popularity of related topics has also remained high.

On the forums, post bars, and video websites, there are already dedicated players who have edited the information about the dragon language and the song of the dragonborn in the video frame by frame for explanation.

The original video, which was less than 2 minutes, was made into a program of ten or twenty hours one by one.

'Dragon language level 8 specialization, teach you how to learn dragon language hand-in-hand', 'Dragon language master in Skyrim will take you to break the treasure'... This kind of post is even more numerous.

Obviously, the dragon language quest line in "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" still attracts many players' anchors and video authors.

First, there is a lot of prize money of $300,000.

And more importantly, once you can really beat the Dragon Language quest for the first time, you will become famous.

Of course, there are more players who are interested, but they are not so assiduous.

The big deal is that after someone can break through the strategy, copy the homework according to the gourd drawing and experience the dragon language side quest in the game.

In fact, Chen Xu hadn't thought about this dragon language activity at first.

It was only after seeing the player's eyes focused on this area and seeing Atari's name that Chen Xu thought of this aspect.

For players in the game, leave some easter eggs that can be studied without affecting the main storyline experience of the game.

As for the content of these easter eggs, whether players can discover and experience all the content is up to the players themselves.

………………

In the private space of friends in Nebula World, Song Renzheng and Zhang Yi are waiting for the game to be unlocked.

"Old Song, are you ready to challenge this Dragon Language decryption mission?" Zhang Yi asked Song Ren.

Song Ren chuckled: "I'm not interested, my goal is to be a great dragon slayer, and as a professional dragon slayer, the savior of the Skyrim Province, this kind of rhetoric has nothing to do with me."

"You can pull it down! If you're not interested, just say that your IQ is not enough to support your completion. Whether the full score is 120 or 150, your English score is quite stable every time. No more than 30 points." Zhang Yi ruthlessly exposed.

"Why didn't you score more than 30 points, Lao Zhang, didn't you think about this? Because every time I copied your test paper." Song Ren counterattacked.

"Cut, how many points did you not copy the test? The 150-point paper, after deducting the composition and reading comprehension, also has 100 points for the multiple-choice questions, right? You got 6 points right in the end, you are a non-chief when you were a child. Ah!" Zhang Yi revealed the other party's dark history.

"Don't talk about me! Can I control bad luck? Why did you choose D for listening questions before!" Song Ren threw out Wang Zhan.

"Cough cough... Stop talking, it's time! It's unlocked, it's unlocked! I'm advanced in the game, I won't tell you!" Some embarrassed Zhang Yi glanced at the time, quickly changed the subject, and moved towards No. A huge portal in the distance left.

Seeing Zhang Yi fleeing from the back, Song Ren couldn't help but hum and smiled, adding one more joy to his brilliant record in the small notebook in his heart, and then he walked in calmly.

Open the game through the portal scene in the VR Nebula world. After a short period of darkness, Song Ren heard a fight in his ears.

Then the picture gradually appeared, and Song Ren was surprised: "Is it the beginning of the war? Which side am I?"

Looking at the soldiers of two different camps in the distance, they are fighting fiercely in the wilderness. Obviously, this should be the prologue of the game.

But Song Ren hadn't waited for Song Ren to figure out the situation, such as what forces the two sides were fighting, and who he was.

A stray arrow suddenly shot out, and it happened to be shot on his knees impartially. 】

what's the situation! ?

Why was he suddenly hit by an arrow in the knee! ?

With a confused look on his face, Song Ren saw himself being captured by two soldiers, and then passed out.

The next second the screen fell into darkness again.

"What is this! Am I not Longyi!" Song Ren felt a little numb.

The promised savior of Skyrim Province, how did he get up and get laid down by two soldiers?

This is too shameful for the Dragonborn, isn't it?

Song Ren complained in his heart, but soon with the appearance of the game screen, his attention returned to the game.

An ancient scroll appeared in front of Song Ren's field of vision.

Under the dim candlelight, the scroll was slowly opened.

At the same time, a low and ancient voice was heard in his ears.

'The scroll once predicted that black wings would appear in the cold winter. ’

'When brothers cannibalize each other, the world is in chaos. ’

'Alduin! ’

'The calamity of kings, the devourer of all things. ’

'The shadow of darkness and its delusions of devouring the world will be liberated! ’

Song Ren knew very well about this mysterious prophecy. This should be an important piece of information about the world background or the main storyline in the game.

And this one called Alduin is definitely the boss to fight.

As for more content, it is obvious that relevant information can only be obtained through the official game experience.

With the closing of the scroll and the extinguishing of the candle, the game screen appeared in front of him, starting from the highest throat of the world.

Song Ren's perspective cuts across the entire Skyrim Province.

At the same time, the Song of the Dragonborn is being sung.

Familiar melody, and incomprehensible dragon language.

The camera cuts through the entire Skyrim Province, and finally slowly freezes on a carriage that begins in the woods.

The white fog, the ancient trees covered with silver snowflakes, the strangely shaped rocks on both sides of the road, and a team of cavalry in armor.

The world of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" was revealed to Song Ren for the first time.

At this time, Song Ren saw a man named Larov said: "Hey, you finally woke up, you were about to cross the provincial border, right? But I didn't expect to break into the ambush of the imperial army, just like us. , and the little thief next to him too."

A skinny thief named Rocker next to him was full of anger: "You **** storm cloaks! Skyrim would have been peaceful without you, and the emperor was far away, wouldn't it be nice? If they hadn't been searching for the rebels, I would have been there long ago. Steal a horse and drop the hammer to save it!"

On the carriage, Song Ren's attention was attracted by the conversations of the people next to him.

"Ulfric, lord of Windhelm, boss of Stormcloak."

"It's over! It's about to be beheaded as soon as it comes up!?"

Looking at the panicked look on the opposite side, Rocker, and Larov's expression of immediate generosity.

Song Ren looked down at the rope that bound his hands again, and couldn't help but feel a pain in the ass.

good guy!

It is a prisoner who comes up, or the kind of prisoner who asks for beheading immediately!

Through the conversations of these people on the prison van, Song Ren also had a general idea of ​​the situation of the protagonist in the game and a related background.

Obviously, this storm cloak is equivalent to various uprising armies, because they are dissatisfied with the empire or some other reasons, they rise up.

And the word of the empire is the original ruling country.

Therefore, the two camps are obviously hostile, and each other's brains are beaten out.

Then, through dialogue and the simple cutscenes that he played before, the character he played should have suffered a disaster as an innocent melon eater like the thief.

"So according to the general game experience, there should be people from the storm cloak coming to the robbery field to rescue their boss."

Song Ren guessed.

As for the faction, Song Ren felt that there was a high probability that he would be able to choose.

Join the Stormcloak, or join the Empire.

Just like in "The Witcher: Wild Hunt", it can help the emperor or help the bald head or fat.

The prison cart slowly drove towards the Helgen Fortress ahead.

At this stage, the player has no way to control, and can only shake the perspective to observe the surroundings.

Along the way, Song Ren looked at the surrounding scenery, while Larov in the prison car spoke to himself.

It is also about some customs and customs of Nord, as well as related customs.

Coming to the Helgen Fortress, the soldiers took the prisoners off the prison cart and called them one by one.

"This is a list of beheadings and shootings!"

Seeing that one by one was called and brought to the front, Song Ren couldn't help but smack his lips.

However, there was no nervousness in his heart, after all Song Ren knew very well that this was just a game.

But what surprised Song Ren was the performance of other NPCs.

It's not an NPC that stands in place and acts as a background board.

The villagers watching from a distance all have corresponding performances.

Some curiously looked here.

Others are protecting the child back to the house.

Of course, there is also the horse thief whose name was named at close range.

'No... I'm not a rebel, you can't do this! ’

The thief whose name was named trembled all over, and then he suddenly broke away from the guard next to him and wanted to escape.

'Archer! ’

With the shooting of the archers in the fortress, the thief who just didn't run two steps - pawn.

"You should walk away when you run away, run straight like a fool, don't you know how Snakeskin walks?"

Looking at the thief who was shot into a hornet's nest in the distance, Song Ren couldn't help complaining.

With the continuous roll call of the execution list and the questioning of soldiers, the screen enters the stage of character creation.

Body, head, face, eyes, eyebrows, mouth, hair, several major branches.

Then inside each option, there are various small branches.

very rich.

In addition to this, there are various races, all with different talents and specialties, which directly blinded Song Ren.

In the end, Song Ren chose a Nord race. As for the appearance, except for the gender change to female, the rest are the default.

With his pinch skills, he might as well use the default, at least he won't become the face of an ancient god.

After pinching her face, she had a conversation with the soldier. Although she was innocent, the captain of the female soldier decided to execute him directly.

"Grass! I'd rather kill a mistake than let it go, right? Why do you owe so much?"

"Brother! No, it should be my sister. Don't give me a chance, or I'll have to kill you!"

Seeing the cold female captain's choice, Song Ren couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Hated, so hated!

After a while of drama, Song Ren stepped onto the guillotine.

But when I just lay down.

Suddenly, there was a dragon roar in the sky, and a huge black dragon flew from the far side of the sky and landed on the tower.

A dragon roar suddenly changed color, and the originally blue and cloudless sunny day was instantly surrounded by dark clouds.

At the same time, electric light and fireballs fell from the sky, like the end of the world.

"This dragon is here to save me!?"

Looking at the huge black dragon that fell on the tower, Song Ren's eyes widened.

If I watched the promotional video before, isn't the dragonborn opposite to the giant dragon, why did the giant dragon come to save him?

Maybe you think wrong?

Yes, if there are bad dragons, there must be good dragons.

Dragonborn, dragonborn, this refers to the descendants of dragons.

So, it makes sense!

This dragon is his own! I can!

In an instant, Song Ren made up what he thought was the truth.
