Otherworldly Architect

[But even that was shattered.If it is said that he is a genius, then the chief designer of Tulong Saber must be a ghost.In the eyes of everyone who couldn't believe it, he personally broke all the shackles of game design and destroyed all our superstitions. Maybe he is still laughing at our ignorance and paranoia. 】

[Cheers, designers, players!It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times. 】

[The framework of game design that once seemed indestructible is now crumbling under the mighty power of the new generation.Even the First League Association has recognized the leader of the new era and put on a bright crown for him. 】

[If you are still immersed in the glory of the past, this building will collapse sooner or later.But if we actively embrace new changes, we will open up a new world that no one has ever seen. 】

……

At this time, our Mingyan has already rushed to the Blue Star Studio without stopping.

The last round of beta testing has finally been completed.

The scheduled April 4 schedule is perfect, and it should be just enough to seamlessly connect.

The game testers to be invited this time are quite special, mainly game experts from all walks of life.

Some are the world record holders of "Minecraft" Extreme MOD;

Some are "League of Legends" passer-by kings, and there is even a former professional player who has just retired from the club due to injury;

There are also game anchors who are famous on the Internet for speedrunning major games...

This time, the biggest purpose of their arrival was to test the boss battle of "Mortal Soul".

The theme of this game is to explore levels and defeat various bosses, so this level is also the top priority.

And this test was conducted online.

When the players regretted that they couldn't go to the Blue Star headquarters in person, they didn't know that the online test was because someone got mixed up in the team...

That's right, Mingyan changed to a very low-key image and went up to test it in person!

At the last step of the development, it is basically the time when it is clearly stated that it is just enough to be free.

The main reason why he decided to end in person was that it was the first time that Bluestar Studios had made such a difficult game, and many insiders were a little lacking in confidence in this difficulty setting.

Mingyan was very calm, and made a suggestion: "Why don't I go and play it myself. If I can successfully clear the most difficult final boss, then we will release it at this difficulty; if I can't pass the level, lower the difficulty. Grades will be released again."

After he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.

——Yaoshou!The instructor personally went to the field to test how devilish his design is!

People don't even know whether to show sympathy or not.

Because the difficulty of the final boss... is really not human!

As for Mingyan's game level, everyone really doesn't know.

Usually, it is clear that it is not running around for meetings and discussions, or writing design drafts in a small black room, and developing new versions with everyone.

He has very little time to play games, only the holidays around New Year's Eve, which is probably just enough for him to finish the League of Legends placement match.

The result is also welcome: Mingyan has been in the silver rank for three consecutive seasons.

Such a chief designer of Ming, playing such a terrifying game as "Mortal Soul", wouldn't it be impossible to clear the levels and bosses he designed?

If it was true, would he have changed the boss in a fit of anger?

Designers: OvO!

What's going on, they actually expect the leader to suffer!Could it be that the nature was infected by the devil?

Mingyan silently randomized another image, and along with a group of players, queued up to enter the final beta version of "Mortal Soul".

The testing process is relatively strict. The secretary called the ID one by one in the front, and the people behind started chatting while waiting.

"My uncle belongs to Blue Star. It is said that the new game is very fun..."

"Brother, you said something nonsense, can this game not be fun? Is there any substantive content?"

"Yes, yes, it is said that the spear is very handsome, handsome and powerful."

"Tch, I saw it on the leader's blog last time. This news is already outdated."

"It's a lie! The leader hasn't updated his blog for many years. As far as his original content is concerned, I can almost memorize it by heart."

The players were chattering, all excited about the test, they looked like a group of children on a spring outing.

There was only Mingyan, who followed behind the team, with a dignified expression because he was thinking about the content of the test, and at first glance he seemed out of place.

A player patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, are you nervous?"

Mingyan shook his head, and when he looked back, he saw a very interesting image of this player, wearing a straight coat that looked like a uniform, and there was a smiling emoji on the back.

The player noticed Mingyan's gaze, and said proudly, "Mingjiao uniform, handsome or not?"

Mingyan: "..." Has there been such a thing as a uniform?

After finishing speaking, the player was a little nervous and shy, and said periodically: "I heard that during the Blue Star test, the designer will be watching from the next door. I don't know if the leader is here this time. You said he will see it. What am I?"

Ming Yan said in his heart: Well, I see, you are very coquettish.

Soon, these test players all entered the game.

Due to the special nature of this test, all players started directly from the base camp map. The character level has reached level 15, and the equipment on their bodies is also readily available, which is enough to challenge all the bosses.

The designers crowded together nervously, all staring at Mingyan's game screen.

They watched Mingyan skilfully skip the character creation stage, took out a two-handed sword, and then hopped on the spot to get familiar with the operation, and left the first bonfire with the sword on his back.

——I will meet the first mob soon!

Everyone's eyes widened and they leaned closer to the screen to watch.

Mingyan, as the chief designer, naturally knows the positions of the levels and monsters.

I saw him sticking to the wall very skillfully all the way, dawdling, avoiding the sight of the monster.

The first mob didn't see him at all.

He deftly bypassed the second mob during its patrol.

The third mob saw Mingyan from the front, but the latter was extremely skilled at rolling forward, running, rolling forward, running, rolling forward...

It's because the little monster couldn't touch him!

Then Mingyan arrived in front of the treasure chest smoothly. After opening the treasure chest, he was decisively beaten to death by the mobs, saving him the time to run back to the camp.

Important props in hand!

At this moment, other players are still fighting the first mob.

Very few masters have just killed the first monster, and they are proud to ask Miss Secretary: "I should be the one with the earliest progress, right? Next, I will get the two little monsters, and then I can take them upstairs." treasure chest."

Miss Secretary: "..."

Designers: "..."

When the other players began to fight towards the second mob, Mingyan had already arrived at the door of the boss.

The designers have already clenched their fists excitedly, just waiting to see the real big BOSS single out the level BOSS designed by themselves.

Unexpectedly, Mingyan rolled another skillful lazy donkey, avoiding the boss's door-opening kill, then wandered all the way, and rolled out through another door.

Everyone: "..."

If this BOSS had any thinking, he might still be confused now, as if something had just flashed past his eyes.

Almost all bosses in "Mortal Soul" can be avoided with special skills.

That is equivalent to skipping the BOSS battle directly and entering the next map - of course, whether the player can beat the mobs in the new map is another matter.

Mingyan naturally wouldn't have this kind of trouble, because he...wouldn't fight any monsters.

His destination is a certain artifact enshrined in the abandoned temple in this map.

This artifact is called "Bloody Red Moon", and its function is: the lower the player's blood volume and san value, the higher the attack power.

After getting this artifact, Mingyan started a happy logging life.

(Logging, or "farm", refers to the easy harvesting of monsters.)

The designers are just feeling a sense of foreboding, and soon they'll know why.

I saw Mingyan happily carrying his big sword, stepping into the highly poisonous pool, and then slowly sucking blood, blood, blood... until the expected value was reached, he walked out of it, He continued to lose blood for a while, just enough to maintain the blood volume at the limit of 1 point.

The artifact "Bloody Red Moon" was already shining red at this time, and the attack power bonus for Mingyan was a full 298%.

In addition, the two-handed sword was originally the weapon with the highest attack power in the game, bar none.

So he made it clear that there is no need to hide when he sees mobs now, just slash them when he sees them——kill them instantly!

Although he only had a little blood, even if he was touched by mobs, he would burp immediately, but he just couldn't die.

The designers looked at each other, speechless.

"Mortal Soul" has eight large maps, each map has its own characteristics, and there are 1-2 boss-level monsters guarding the level.

In fact, there is no strict order for each map, but in terms of the difficulty of monster design, it is progressive in steps.

If the player is really strong enough and knows the route, he can go straight to the last map as he said.

The final big boss is set to be the former body of the God of Light.

When his flame disappeared in the long darkness, the body of the original god was also corrupted and became one of the fallen monsters.

In the first play, the difficulty of this boss can be described in four words, that is "demented".

The goal of today's test is to observe how many expert players can successfully defeat the final boss within the test time.
