Translator 549690339
“After the three-day trip to h.e.l.l, even many of the old men who had been through hundreds of battles in Dark Souls had been tortured to the point where their consciousness was blurry. ”
“However, a portion of the players were triggered by the masochism. Not only did they not back off, but they also felt an inexplicable excitement! ”
!!
“After all, wasn’t this the feeling of suffering that everyone was looking forward to the prequel to Dark Souls? ”
“Many players had studied Dark Souls thoroughly, and even many multi-game veterans could parkour through the entire game. To them, Dark Souls had lost the sense of collapse and fun they had when they first saw it. ”
“After playing the game as if it was a hack-and-slash game, he actually missed the newbie who hid behind a shield and shivered. ”
“But now, the pre-introduction of Dark Souls had brought back this heart-racing feeling! ”
“Therefore, many m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t players showed extraordinary enthusiasm for the prequel of Dark Souls! ”
“As for the players who had been forced to retreat, they were all emotionally stable. ”
“After all, the players who played the prequel of Dark Souls had a solid foundation, and it was not the first time they had been abused. Their threshold for suffering was constantly rising … ”
……
“Many of the white mice that had tried the game in the experience store also posted online, sharing their experiences with the players that couldn ‘t. ”
“There were also some streamers, like Lin Xue, who came to experience the game. However, these streamers didn’t stream in the experience store, nor did they record anything. ”
“This was a common rule among the dark Souls players, which was to preserve the game’s first-sight pleasure to the maximum. ”
“No one knew when these rules came into being, but they had now become the rules that most of the dark Souls veteran players had to follow. ”
There were two main points to these rules.
The newbies had to rely on their own efforts to clear the game before they could ask the old players for help.
“In other words, in a week, new players could only challenge bosses by recruiting NPCs (this was allowed by the game’s mechanics), and they couldn’t ask for items such as souls, embers, and good weapons from old players. ”
“As long as he posted a screenshot of his achievements after one round of the game, he could happily engage in PY transactions with the big shots. ”
“In addition, all anchors and video authors were not allowed to disclose too much information about the prequel of Dark Souls before the release of the new game, just like how spoilers were not allowed on the first day of many dramas. ”
“Of course, after the game was officially released, these streamers would have no problem livestreaming or making strategy videos. ”
“In fact, these two rules had the same purpose, which was to avoid spoilers, to prevent new players from skipping cla.s.ses, and to preserve the core fun of the game as much as possible. ”
“Although many people said that playing Dark Souls was suffering, suffering itself was the essence of the game. It was just like attending cla.s.ses. Cla.s.ses were indeed boring, but one could indeed learn something. Skipping cla.s.ses might seem like a shortcut, but in fact, he would lose many things sooner or later. ”
“Therefore, even though many people had already tried the prequel to Dark Souls, some details of the game had not been leaked. ”
“On the official forum, only a few words were revealed, and they were deliberately vague, making the onlookers a little impatient. ”
“””These people who have tried out the prequel of Dark Souls are quite patient! Why hasn’t anyone posted a video yet?”” ”
“””Yeah, let’s not talk about the video. Everyone’s so secretive. Did Chen Mo use a spell on them?”” ”
“””And what the h.e.l.l are so many completely opposite statements? some say it’s hard, some say it’s especially easy??”” ”
“””It’s easy? I don’t believe it …”” ”
“””That’s hard to say, maybe Chen Mo lowered the difficulty to expand his player base?”” ”
“””Hehe, do you believe me?”” ”
“……”
“The more and more information there was on the internet, the more curious people were about the prequel of Dark Souls … ”
There were many posts that deliberately pretended to be innocent in order to deliberately lead everyone’s attention in the opposite direction. It was unknown what kind of mentality these people had.
“However, the effect was indeed quite good. Many old players did not believe that the prequel of Dark Souls would be simple, but after the tireless brainwashing of many trial players, some of them actually believed it … ”
“Many of the players who had never been to the experience store were running their mouths off, and it was hard to tell the difference between real and fake news … ”
“However, it wasn’t a big deal. The game was going to be released soon anyway, and the curious players could go into the game and experience it for themselves. ”
“However, to the surprise of many players, Chen Mo updated his Weibo a day before the game was released! ”
“A lot of people felt that it was quite strange. It was going to be released tomorrow, so what was the point of posting it on Weibo now? ”
Warm-up? It’s a little too late.
“It was awkward to post at this time, and the purpose was unknown … ”
Many players opened Chen Mo’s Weibo out of curiosity.
“””The latest theme song for the prequel of Dark Souls has been released! [Poke here] let’s listen first!”” ”
The players were shocked when they saw this Weibo post.
What the h.e.l.l? The theme song for the prequel of Dark Souls?
Why did this game need a theme song?
“Chen Mo had released theme songs for some games before, such as Wulin legend’s sword is like a dream, Onmyoji’s Gokuraku Jodo, etc., But they were released in advance to increase the popularity of the game, and the game itself was very suitable for such a theme song to promote. ”
“But for a theme like dark Souls, what kind of theme song did it need? This kind of game usually had a more sacred or sad background music, and the lyrics would destroy the mood of the game. ”
“Moreover, if the theme song was released, it would have been released a long time ago. Why wait until the day before the prequel of Dark Souls was released? ”
Many players clicked on the link on Chen Mo’s Weibo with suspicion.
“It was just audio, and the singer was obviously not a big star, but a not-so-famous second-rate singer named Zhao Zhang. Although her singing was good, she had never had any particularly good songs to sing, so she was a singer with a very small audience. ”
“Then, he looked at the lyrics and melody, yes, it was all Chen Mo, nothing wrong … ”
“Many players were still confused. Chen Mo’s song composition was within expectations, but they were mainly confused as to why he had a small group of singers sing it. ”
“Chen Mo had worked with big name singers like Zhou Yifeng before, and with Thunderbolt Entertainment’s current wealth and fame in the gaming industry, what kind of big name singer couldn’t they find? ”
“Furthermore, this song was actually sung by a Chinese citizen? In other words, it shouldn’t be an English song? ”
Dark Souls was a Western fantasy theme! Using a Chinese song sung by a niche singer as the theme song was simply a mismatch!
“Eh, something seemed to be wrong, but that wasn’t important. The key was, would this song be good? Would it fit the theme of the prequel to Dark Souls? ”
