<h4>Chapter 559: Can you turn off the damage disy?</h4> <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>549690339 </h4>
“Alright, let’s get to the point,” said Denise. I’vee here with many yers ‘questions. We all know that Dark Souls has achieved extraordinary sess in Europe and the United States, evenpletely crushing the GA’s Knight’s glory. ”
“Although you’ve made some other sessful games like Warcraft, Minecraft, League of Legends, and so on, there’s never been a game that has such a wide influence like dark Souls. After all, this is the first game to be created with AI, and it represents the top level of vr game design. ”
“Then, regarding this game, our first concern is its difficulty. When you designed the game, did you decide from the start that the game would be this difficult? Or is this a joint decision by the entire research and development team?”
“Yes.” Chen Mo nodded.”I’ll decide on the difficulty.”
Dennis said,’in other words, the difficulty of Dark Souls’ fame ... Was entirely due to your efforts? So why is it so difficult?”
Chen Mo smiled,”I don’t think” hard “can be used to describe the game’s difficulty.” I don’t like to say ‘this is too difficult’, but I usually say ‘this doesn’t make sense’.”
“What’s the Difference?” Denise asked, confused.”What’s the Difference?”
“Obviously,” Chen Mo said,”Dark Souls isn’t so difficult that it’s impossible for everyone. This wasn’t my intention when I was designing it.”
“From a secr point of view, Dark Souls is indeed more difficult than most games on the market, but I’m more concerned about whether the level design logic behind Dark Souls is reasonable.”
“The key is to find a bnce point. The yers will find it very difficult when they can’t find the trick, but after they find the trick, most people can clear the game rtively smoothly. This is the difficulty design I want. ”
“Wow,” said Denise in shock,”he’s indeed a world-ss game designer. Even his way of looking at games is different from ours.”
“To put it simply,” Chen Mo said in a low voice,”you can’t be too ruthless, or you’ll beat all the yers away.”
“Huh?”
......
“It’s okay,” Chen Zhao smiled.”Let’s continue.”
“Alright,” Denise said,”next question. Isn’t there a huge difference in the damage output of the weapons in this game?” For example, I personally like whips, but in Dark Souls, whips don’t seem to be of any use. As for other weapons, such as exiles ‘broadswords, aren’t they a little too strong?”
“Yes,” Chen Zhao said. The exiles “daggers are indeed stronger.”
“Why did you design it this way on purpose?” asked Denise.
“Of course,” Chen Zhao said.”It’s because I like to use it.”
“Huh?”
“It’s about whips,” Chen Zhao continued.”It’s because it’s a pretty marginal type of weapon in the design. In fact, in Dark Souls, most of the weapons that were suitable for showing off had some other attributes that were slightly weakened. This is so that the yers can try out other weapon types. ”
“So,” said Denise thoughtfully,”that’s why whip-type weapons and many other cool-looking weapons are all shy without substance?”
Chen Mo chuckled,”that’s right, after all, being strong is only temporary, but being handsome is a lifetime!” If it’s strong and handsome, then the yers won’t use other weapons, and I’ll be wasting my time?”
Denise was speechless, but she thought,’you’re right ... But there should be a limit to how weak I am, right? For example, the leather whip that I like, isn’t the damage too low?”
Chen Mo coughed dryly,’well ... Don’t bring your hobbies into the game. Besides, if you think the damage output is low, you can turn off the damage disy. ”
Denise was shocked,”turn off the damage disy?” Aren’t you just lying to yourself?”
Chen Mo nodded,”yes, but at least it’s a good solution, right?.”
“But ...” Denise almost broke down.”Whether it’s an invasion or a police officer, low weapon damage means that you can’t beat anyone!”
Chen Mo smiled,”well, you can y the game offline. You can be a lonely Queen of whips. That way, you won’t have to face such problems.”
“What?” Denise was shocked.”So, the solution to the low damage of the whip is to y offline?”
Chen Mo nodded,”yes. Even though this solution doesn’t sound reliable, you have to admit that it’s one of the ways to solve the problem.”
“Alright, then let’s move on to the next topic ...” Said Denise as she held her forehead in despair.
“On the inte, the plot of Dark Souls has triggered a heated discussion among yers. Some yers even specte about the plot by dismantling the name. Many people said that this method was stupid. After all, the designer of Dark Souls was a Chinese. Then, may I ask if you put any corresponding meaning in the name?”
Chen Zhao said,”ah, actually there is.” I’ve dabbled in a wide range of things, including many ces and people’s names in the game. In fact, I first used English and then tranted them into Chinese ording to the English. Otherwise, the game wouldn’t have such a Western vor. ”
“Oh?” Denise’s eyes lit up.”So, it’s very reasonable to specte the corresponding plot through the names of the ces and people?”
Chen Mo nodded,”yes, you can say so.”
“It’s really surprising,” said Denise.”It seems that your cultural heritage is really deep! I was still wondering how a Chinesepany could make such an authentic Western fantasy theme, but now that I know you have such a deep cultural heritage, it’s not difficult to understand!”
“Haha!” Chen Moughed,”it’s just a small interest.”
“We also noticed,” said Denise. The plot of Dark Souls was rtively fragmented, and many of the plots were not exined clearly. What do you think about this? Is it done on purpose to give yers more room for imagination?”
Chen Zhaoughed,”in fact, this was a deliberate design. I have aplete background story in my mind, but I won’t say it out loud because it’s one of the core joys of Dark Souls to let the yers explore and discover more mysteries in the world. ”
“Of course, there’s still arge part of the plot that we haven’t released yet. There’ll be another work in Dark Souls.”
Denise immediately perked up and asked,”another work?” In other words ... Dark Souls will have a sequel?”
