Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

With emotion, Song Ren continued to promote the content of the DLC. Compared with the content of the game itself, there is not much plot about the Zacks DLC.

And it has already advanced to the second half. At this time, Zack and Taksli's Zeng went to the border to investigate the trace of Genesis.

It was here that Zack met Claude as the protagonist for the first time, and the two had a good conversation.

They also have a characteristic, that is from the countryside.

However, although Claude is the protagonist of the game, it is not Claude who obviously has more roles in this DLC, but Zack.

'Honor is ruined, and when he wants to fly, his wings are broken; this is the end of the monster. ' As a representative of literary youth, Genesis, who has been holding this book of "loveless", even if he has been defeated by Zack, he still did not forget to pretend at this time.

There is one thing Song Ren really has to admit, that is, Genesis is also really handsome.

The 1st Shinra Special Forces like Sephiroth and Genesis are really more powerful than the other.

Even the big brother Angel, although not as handsome as Sephiroth and Genesis in terms of appearance, but his words and deeds are quite manly.

Especially the sentence: As a special forces soldier, you must have a dream, and don't forget your dream.

It made Zack directly take it as the creed of life.

So while Genesis is singing the opera, Zack says, 'We're not monsters! But special forces! Where's your honor? ’

Facing Zack's questioning, Genesis just slowly backed up to the magic furnace, chanting while backing: 'Even if there is no agreed tomorrow, I will definitely return to where you are; if this world Threatening my life... well, it's the end of it all. ’

The words fell, and Genesis jumped out of the magic furnace.

Song Ren: ? ? ? ? ? ?

Seeing Genesis disappear from sight, Song Ren couldn't help but sigh.

The lines are really handsome, and the actions are really cool, but what about the good news?

Song Ren continued the game, continued to go deep into Modelheim's Zack, discovered Angel and Holland, and learned more about the Xenovia G plan.

Facing Zack, Angel, who values ​​honor very much, made a decision.

'Zack, do you remember? We made a pact to fight all the things that make the world miserable, and now it's me who makes me miserable. ' Angel looked at Zack and called the monsters with Xenovia cells around.

As the perfect experimental body of Xenovia G's plan, he possesses the ability to phagocytose and divide, but even if he swallows too many Xenovia cells at one time, it will cause an irreversible situation.

Under the cell input of countless monsters, Angel became the monster that he hated himself.

From the noon battle to the evening, the entire Mordelheim laboratory collapsed in the battle between Zack and Angel, and Angel, who eventually became a monster, was killed by Zack.

Angel, who was lying on the ground, showed a relieved smile and handed the destroying sword to Zack.

"Well done, Zack... I'll leave it to you later, don't forget the honor."

[With a dream, to be a hero, you must have a dream and honor. 】

Angel's words echoed in Zack's mind, and when he returned to Alice's church, Zack, who had always been optimistic, shed his tears for the first time.

At this time, Alice looked at the sad Zack, just walked over gently, slowly crouched down and hugged Zack tightly from behind.

After this is Claude's memory.

In Cloud's hometown, Sephiroth also betrayed Shinra during the mission to investigate the Mako Furnace.

Zack is defeated by Sephiroth, facing the slaughter of his hometown and the death of his childhood sweetheart Tifa.

Cloud finally stood up. He picked up the sabotage sword of his predecessor, Zack, and shot Sephiroth down the magic furnace in the final sneak attack, but he was also seriously injured.

At the same time, this episode also proves one point, that is, the so-called clone of Hojo was just a lie.

After Shinra's people came here, Hojo brought the seriously injured Zack and Cloud back to conduct experiments, and injected Xenovia's cells.

It had been four years since Zack woke up, and Cloud, who couldn't be a special soldier because of his will and spirit, was still in a coma.

After waking up, Zack took Cloud and escaped from Shinra.

Of course, in this episode, there is another character that surprises Song Ren, that is a Turks girl named Sisne, who seems to have a slightly different relationship with Zack.

‘Hey… Sisne, can you be my mother’s confidant? ' Zack knew that he was wanted by Shinra and could not return to the peaceful life of Gongga, so he wanted Cisner to help him take care of his parents.

'Okay, say please. ' Cisner said with a smile.

'I'm sure I'll be asked about the bride or something. ’

' has been asked. ’

'Then how did you answer! Sisney! ' Hearing this, Zack suddenly panicked.

Song Ren couldn't help but sigh while watching the plot of this episode.

So this is the treatment of the protagonist?

There are always girls around who have a good impression of him, and there are more than one!

Although it's only DLC, in this DLC scene, Zack is the protagonist!

At the same time, Song Ren was also a little happy. After all, the conversation between Zack and Sisne was quite happy.

But the next plot completely made Song Ren have no such happy thoughts.

Because Zack and Claude were still high priority targets of Shinra at this time, they were surrounded and intercepted by countless pursuers on the way, and because of the fusion of Claude and Xenovia, Holland and Jay were also drawn. Nessis wants to **** Claude for research.

But Genesis and Holland, who couldn't fuse with Xenovia cells and deteriorated, were not Zack's opponents, and were eventually defeated by Zack.

And right here, Zack receives a letter from Alice.

Four years of waiting, Alice has been waiting for Zack to use the float with her to accomplish that goal: to sell flowers in Midgar.

[This letter is the 89th letter, but there is no sender's address. This is the last letter... Zacks, the flowers are selling well, and everyone is smiling. This is all thanks to Zacks - Ellie Silk】

‘Four years! So what is this in the end? ’

Alice's face appeared in Zack's mind, and he looked in the direction of Midgar in the distance.

Then picked up Cloud, who was still in a coma, and picked up the destruction sword.

In any case, he has to go back to find Alice, because he still has an unfulfilled promise with Alice.

About to return to the wilderness of Midgar, there is some hope in Zack's eyes. Although Claude has not fully recovered at this time, he can still say some simple words.

"Just kidding, I won't leave you, we are friends, Claude."

"Wait until Midgar, let's be mercenaries."

Back in the wilderness of Midgar, Zack in the back of the carriage looked at Claude, whose mental state was still ignorant, and said to himself with a smile.

"So, don't put a flag on yourself!" Song Ren looked at Zack with a smile on his face, and already had a hunch in his heart.

This is simply a classic death flag!

As we all know, when a person says something like 'I will go back to my hometown to get married after this battle' and 'I will wash my hands with gold after this one is over'.

Basically, the lunch box is already reserved in advance.

Now Zack is saying the same thing.

In addition to the ‘Descendence of the Holy Son’, and then the Great Sword of Destruction became Cloud’s weapon.

These all imply Song Ren, telling him the fate of Zack afterward.

In the wilderness of Midgar, Zack, who was driving, stopped the car.

Because of Shinra's pursuit, this area has been blocked.

And not far ahead is Midgar, only a little distance, just a little bit.

Zack looked at Claude who was still in a coma in the car, and couldn't help showing the smile of the logo on his face.

Carrying Claude from the car and placing it beside a hidden stone, Zack raised his right hand with a slight smile, rubbed Claude's head, and finally looked at Claude Glancing towards the distance with the Destruction Sword on his back.

At this time, Claude seemed to have regained some consciousness. He looked at Zack's back and slowly raised his hand, as if he wanted to keep something.

‘Really! The price of chasing freedom is high! ’

Holding Angel's Destruction Sword in both hands, Zack looked up at the sky with a smile as he watched the Shinra soldiers approaching.

'Then... embrace the dream! ’

‘No matter when, don’t give up your pride in being a special forces soldier. ’

'welcome! ’

Continuous battles, almost endless enemies, beat back wave after wave.

Although the previous Song Ren controlled Zack to defeat Angel, defeated Genesis and countless monsters.

But in the face of these countless soldiers like the tide, there is no way to hold on.

The blood volume continues to decrease, and the supply on the body continues to decrease.

At the same time, the sky gradually darkened, and it was raining heavily at some point.

As Song Ren used up the last healing agent, Zack's last health was destroyed.

The screen switches to the slum church in Midgar.

Alice was tending to the flowers in the church when it rained heavily in the otherwise clear sky.

As if feeling something, Alice looked up at the raining sky blankly, holding her hands and praying for something, but in a second she let out an exclamation.

Then the picture returns to the wilderness of Midgar.

The blood-stained Zack was lying in the mud, and the heavy rain washed away the blood on his body, but the next moment blood flowed out of the wound, and only the heaving chest seemed to prove that he was still alive.

Cloud, who was weak in the distance, lay on the ground and kept crawling towards Zack.

‘Za…Zack…’

Before he could fully recover from the side effects of Moxu's radiation, Claude came to Zack's side and stared blankly at Zack on the ground, but instinctively called out the name in his memory.

Zack looked at Claude next to him and smiled, even at the last moment, his face still had a smile on his face.

'With my share...'

'Even yours? ' Claude stared blankly at Zack lying there.

'Yeah, you...you want to live, you...is the proof that I...existed. ’

'My honor and my dreams... are all in your hands. ’

Handing the destroying sword next to Cloud to Cloud, Zack, who was lying on the ground, closed his eyes with a smile.

'I am the proof of your existence. ' Holding the Great Sword of Destruction in his hand, Claude, who was in a trance, looked at Zack on the ground and muttered.

I don't know how long it took, Claude seemed to think of something, along with the downpour, he looked at Zack on the ground and let out a mournful wailing.

[Inside the pupil, a blur can not be seen clearly]

[I can't detect the mixed emotions in my heart]

...

[Why, looking up at the lonely starry sky]

【Why, you can still see smiles】

...

Along with the episode named why, what Zack once said seemed to echo in Claude's ears.

'Have a dream, if you want to be a hero...you have to have a dream. ’

The rain didn't know when it stopped, and Claude, who was still a little dazed, looked at the great sword of destruction in his hand.

Then looking at Midgar in the distance, he slowly stood up and moved his body towards the front little by little.

At the same time, Zack of 'another world' seemed to come to life, slowly opened his hands, and returned to the stream of life on the planet.

'She... once said that she was terrified of this very ordinary sky, but... this sky still feels good. ’

'Please give me a pair of wings like that. ’

At this moment, Zack finally has it. He used to envy Angel's wings.

It belongs to the angels, but also to the wings of heroes.

'Claude...Alice will ask you. ’

With the disappearance of Zack, the pictures in the game gradually disappeared, returning to Claude's spiritual world.

At this moment, Claude finally recalled everything from the beginning.

"Have and dream... If you want to be a hero, you must have a dream."

Looking at Tifa beside him and the Great Sword of Destruction in front of him, Cloud got up from the bed and lightly grabbed the hilt and closed his eyes.

"Thank you Zack, you can rest assured to sleep."

"I will never forget your teachings."

Taking a deep breath, Claude's eyes became firm again.

I didn't get excited because of Claude's awakening, and I didn't continue to advance the plot to save the world and defeat Sephiroth because he returned to the main body of the game.

Because at this time Song Ren was still immersed in the picture of Zack's death, and sent out a voice from the depths of his soul.

"Mr. Chen, I'm **** you uncle!"

Zack's death, he was actually mentally prepared.

But when this scene really came, he found that he still couldn't hold it.

How can anyone do this!

How could someone make a knife like that?

The game screen in front of Song Ren gradually blurred.

The most important point is that the knife this time is a double attack, and the kind of killing with memories.

Zack's tragic death, coupled with the fact that Tuogu wanted Claude to take care of Alice at the end of his death, seems to be only Zack's point.

But for players who have played "Final Fantasy", they think of the scene where Alice died under the knife of Sephiroth almost instantly.

This is equivalent to a knife stabbed in his chest, and then President Chen was not satisfied, he opened the scar that had not fully healed before and sprinkled a handful of salt on it.

How can there be such a person! ?
