Chapter 390 Premeditated fraud!


    Shall I wipe it?


    Lecturer Ding’s first reaction was, a liar, definitely a liar!


    ?This seems to be a deliberate trick to deceive the host into suffering. Anyway, after I finish typing the horror content with fear, I will definitely find that there is no reward.


    Hehe, I, Xiao Ding, have also experienced many battles. What audience has never seen this? You can''t fool me at all with your little tricks.


    ??Lecturer Ke Ding went to the Internet and briefly searched for the video and found out that it was actually true!


    ??Although many players choose to alt+F4 when they see horror content, there are also brave and stubborn players who insist on completing the entire horror level.


    ??Lecturer Ding took a brief look and found that the horror levels corresponding to each female character in "Heartbeat Dreamland" seemed to be different.


    ?For example, Arvette he is chasing is a girl with a Nordic background and has the same name as one of the Valkyries, so the horror level will be full of Nordic horror elements.


    ?For example, there are blue-skinned, frozen white ghosts, the swimming pool turned into a frozen abyss, and Arvette is suspected of being affected by the same immortal curse similar to Balder, etc.


    ??As for other girls, there will be different levels based on different backgrounds!


    ?For example, North American girls are more inclined to horror movies with blood flying around, including various zombies and scary giants holding chainsaws high;


    ??Neon Girl is a bit like Hundred Ghosts Night Parade. Players will instantly be placed in an environment similar to Naraku Prison, where they will be chased by hungry ghosts and various ghosts;


    ??There is even Chinese-style horror, where the girl will turn into a paper bride, dragging the player into a terrifying dream...


    ?Of course, because the game has just been released, most players have only had a taste of it and have only experienced the first small level of the horror content.


    ?However, since this game does not limit the order in which girls are recruited, the level content that players experience is also divided into specific categories based on the initial characters.


    In some levels, the player has no ability to resist at all and can only run; but in some levels, the player can have a small pistol.


    It’s just that in levels with weapons, monsters are often stronger and faster.


    The ammunition resources that players obtain, the power of weapons, reloading speed, etc. are also subject to strict restrictions.


    Obviously, in this regard, "Dreamland" is completely a standard horror game design idea.


    ?Many players say that all fear is essentially a phobia of insufficient firepower, and the designers of "Dreamland" obviously know this very well and have maximized the phobia of insufficient firepower as much as possible.


    ??Lecturer Ding randomly found a video that had just been uploaded not long ago, and directly pulled the progress bar to the end to take a look.


    ?Hmm...are there really extra rewards?


    ?Compared to pressing alt+F4 directly to exit the game, if you can clear this level, the reward will be almost doubled!


    Of course, the designer has obviously been clever in terms of numerical values, such as two very key props, one is an invitation to the Garden of Eden, and the other is a treasure-level swimsuit gift bag of your choice.


    The former can invite a new guest to the Garden of Eden, while the latter can directly send a swimsuit of the highest level.


    But obviously this kind of reward is not available every time. Otherwise, if the player quits the game a few times, he will directly unlock all characters + all swimsuits. After all, the size of the game is limited, and there are only so many characters and costumes.


    So as the player progresses in the game, these two rewards will gradually be restricted and may not be obtained every time.


    ?However, the other rewards are still very generous, which is much more generous than the average mobile games currently on the market. After all, "Dreamland" is a buyout game, and there is no need to control the player''s playing time like ordinary mobile games. For Lilith, no matter how long the player plays, as long as they contribute negative emotions, it is considered a victory.


    ??Moreover, the rewards for beating these terrifying levels don’t stop there.


    In addition to the regular rewards that are directly doubled, some new plots and new content can also be unlocked.


    This is something that the "Flashback Party" cannot activate no matter how many times the game is closed.


    ????At first, Professor Ding thought that it would be over once he catches the girl. After all, he has confessed his feelings. According to the routine of ordinary love games, it would be considered a complete success at this point.


    But after watching the video, I realized that that was not the case at all!


    ??If the player can clear the horror level once, the friendship between him and the girl can be further improved, and even exceed the original upper limit.


    The girl’s daily conversations and behaviors will undergo some changes.


    ??There will also be many new interactive options between players and girls.


    ?Perhaps one of the biggest differences is...realism?


    Previously, even if the player had confessed to a girl, or was confessed to by a girl, and confirmed the relationship, but then continued to date other girls, there would be no special plot at all.


    The girls all play in harmony, and there won’t be too many jealous plots. It’s no problem for the protagonist to step on N ships, so many players just call it a science fiction game, it’s so unreal!


    ??But judging from the situation in the video, it seems that every time the horror content is cleared, the performance of these girls becomes more "real", or closer to real people.


    When the favorability level exceeds the original upper limit, if the player continues to pursue other girls, the original girl''s favorability level will begin to drop, and some "angry" expressions may even appear.


    “Oh, is there such a thing?”


    Lecturer Ding now understands why the love part is so similar to a science fiction game. It turns out that the love part is still related to the horror game part?


    ? It turns out that being able to get rewards with alt+F4 is not a bug, but a trap that the official has set aside for a long time?


    “In other words, this is originally a horror game disguised as a love game?


    “The purpose of this game is not to allow players to experience sweet love at all, but to trick players into killing them?


    “This looks like boiling a frog in warm water!


    “First, use one or two innocuous bugs to set the stage. On the one hand, it will create a small amount of fright for the players, and on the other hand, it will comfort everyone as much as possible.


    “When everyone started to wonder if this was a real bug, suddenly the picture was revealed and a horror game level was opened!


    “But at this time, there is a glimmer of hope left, and they find that if they quit the game immediately, they can get the reward for free, so many people will continue to stay for a while for the reward even though they know they will be scared.


    “Finally, let me tell you that if you clear the horror levels, you can get more rewards, which activates the real content of the game and forces you to face your fears...


    “I have to say, this combo is too much!


    “If we had said this was a horror game from the beginning, there would never have been so many players; if we had just played the horror level for the first time without bugs, there would have been many more players dismissed than now…


    “All in all, Nitian is definitely doing this on purpose! They just used this method to trick the most people into coming in and frightening them. This is a premeditated fraud!”
