Creating a Virtual World Chapter 23: Girls with less hair have better luck
The headquarters of Tiangong Game Platform Company.
Xia Shan sat at her desk and browsed the newly uploaded games on the gaming platform.
She is a very ordinary employee of the Tiangong game platform, and she is also an absolutely rare golden legendary existence among programmers... a female programmer.
Xia Shan's job position is very ordinary, but her identity is not ordinary at all, because her father is one of the people in charge of the game review department.
Originally, with the help of her father, Xia Shan had the opportunity to enter the civil service unit such as the game review department, but Xia Shan refused.
Reason for rejection Xia Shan hates her father, and the reason for hating her father is very simple.
That is, although Xia Shan's father is one of the people in charge of the game review department, he does not play video games himself, and he can even say that he retains the views of Xia Shan's grandfather's generation. good stuff.
This kind of arrogance made Xia Shan, who loves video games, hate her father very much. Xia Shan secretly applied for a programming major out of anger, but she was still arranged to work at the official game company of Tiangong.
"Holy Spirit? The game just released three hours ago, the production company No. 13 Game Company... No. 13, No. 13..."
Xia Shan saw a game with a capacity of 5000G+ among a large number of newly uploaded mini-games, which naturally attracted her attention.
Now VR games are getting bigger and bigger, three or four thousand gigabytes are normal, but if you go up to five thousand, it is a super masterpiece.
Only those big game companies can produce masterpieces. Xia Shan remembers only those big game companies on Blue Star. She has never heard of a game company called No. 13.
Wait...
"No. 13, have you made a new game again?"
Xia Shan took out a small round ball. There was a pixel electronic screen on the surface of the sphere. The pixels on the electronic screen formed two squinting eyes. Xia Shan took it out and shook her eyes and opened them instantly.
This is a popular electronic pet in the world. The propaganda is to keep Tiangong 13 in the palm of your hand.
"Mmm, um, um." The ball made three electronic sounds in a row.
The Tiangong No. 13 raised by Xia Shan is somewhat different from the one on the market. It is an internal version. This Tiangong No. 13 is derived from the consciousness of the backbone of the system, and can be regarded as the Tiangong No. 13 itself.
"More than 5,000 gigabytes... The VR game you made when I was in college was 6,000 gigabytes."
Xia Shan took out her VR headset and wanted to download the Holy Spirit and try it out. She experienced a game that No. 13 made by herself three years ago.
But that thing really can't be called a game. Although the picture is good enough to be used as a virtual travel software, the problem is that the only way to play is walking, so the thing can only be called a walking simulator.
"I'll download it and take a look." When Xia Shan was about to click download, a message popped up suddenly.
'You are not eligible to play. ’
"Activation qualifications..." Xia Shan logged on to the official website of the Holy Spirit. The content of the official website was very simple. She found the page for extracting activation qualifications and clicked on it without thinking.
It may be that the girl with less hair has better luck. The moment Xia Shan clicked the mouse, a message popped up.
'Congratulations on gaining access to Holy Spirit, which is tied to your ID and cannot be transferred to anyone else. ’
After reading the prompt, Xia Shan put on the game helmet and started to download Holy Spirit. The game was downloaded in about half an hour with her company's network speed of 5,000 gigabytes.
"No. 13, what exactly is this game like?" Xia Shan asked Tiangong No. 13 on the table before entering the game.
"It's fun, it's fun, it's fun."
Tiangong No. 13 answered Xia Shan with an electronic voice.
"I trust you again."
Xia Shan remembered that Tiangong No. 13 was so bewitching herself three years ago. She chose to log in to the Holy Spirit and closed her eyes at the same time.
The game that Tiangong No. 13 made three years ago had some light pollution on the login interface, which caused her eyes to suffer a lot. This time, she took precautions in advance.
The first thing Xia Shan felt when she entered the game was not light pollution, but the breeze blowing from her face.
Wind? Where did the breeze come from?
Xia Shan suddenly opened her eyes and found herself in a pure white space with a data interface displayed in front of her eyes.
'Please fill in your game ID. ’
Is the Holy Spirit an online game? Online games made by artificial intelligence?
Xia Shan suddenly became interested and directly filled in her commonly used ID 'Black Hair Evergreen', which meant that she lost less hair when she stayed up late.
The face pinching part of the character creation Xia Shan is still very serious about pinching a beautiful appearance for herself. She chooses the career as a gunslinger.
Because there is a branch of mechanics in the gunman's career change, Xia Shan has been interested in fiddling with various machines and programs since she was a child.
The next second she clicked to complete the registration, Xia Shan realized that this was a game made by artificial intelligence.
Where did Tiangong 13 get so many career references?
When this question appeared in Xia Shan's mind, the image that appeared in front of her the next moment caused Xia Shan's head to crash.
In the real dead state, Xia Shan's eyes widened because the Holy Spirit's novice main city, Lionheart City, had already appeared in front of her.
There is no light pollution, and the design style of Lionheart City's holy pure white city walls and golden lines intertwines, making Xia Shan a kind of shocking feeling standing under the world's wonder buildings.
What really killed Xia Shan's mind was the breeze blowing from her face, and the fragrance of flowers that flooded her sense of smell.
She reacted, and quickly squatted down and grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground. The sand of the dirt soaked into her fingertips. The touch was too similar to the real world, but three seconds later she The dirt on her hand disappeared from her fingertips, reminding Xia Shan that this was in the game world.
"No. 13, what have you done?" Xia Shan has one or two years of experience in VR game design~IndoMTL.com~ She knows that there are few top game companies in the world who can achieve this kind of detail. do it.
No one answered Xia Shan, only then did Xia Shan realize that she was already in the main game city of the Holy Spirit, and she was now playing the role of a female gunslinger named 'Black Hair Evergreen'.
The scenery beside her was no longer the boring office, but the busy streets of Lionheart City, where the kind-hearted novice instructor was standing at the door of the professional guild and issuing novice tasks.
Xia Shan looked around the street from left to right, occasionally seeing one or two players jumping and running past the street.
She didn't rush to do the novice task, but patted her cheek with her hand, only a slight pain, but a touch.
What about the effects of the physics engine? Xia Shan found a stone on the ground and picked it up, and the system popped up a prompt.
'You picked up the stone. ’
Stone.
Throws an item.
Level requirement: 0.
Description: Small stones can be seen everywhere.
Equipment attribute: Attack power 1~1.
Are there any hints?
Xia Shan picked up the stone and threw it into the distance. The stone crossed a perfect curve and landed on the ground.
The physics engine looks fine, what's next to test?
Xia Shan took the initiative to take up the position of game reviewer at this moment, but it was a little different from other reviewers, Xia Shan thought of a terrible test direction.
That's the game called Holy Spirit, can you play around like other real simulation games?
When Xia Shan realized that Holy Spirit's physics engine was very similar to the real world, she seemed to have regarded Holy Spirit as a simulation game, not an MMORPG.
