"As soon as the game was updated, I checked the game's test data and some live streams, and the results looked pretty good."
Mingmei, who was returning home on time that evening, felt a sense of pressure looking at her two uncles sitting across from her. They looked different but had a similar air about them and both had squinty eyes.
One of them, Uncle Yan Hui, who has a more refined appearance and a slightly more mature demeanor, is one of the designers of the "Ancient Blue Star Survival Guide" series of escape games.
From what he said, Mingmei knew that he must know everything that happened in the game during the day.
"Uncle Yan Hui, are you saying that all the players died quite well?"
Before coming home for dinner today, Mingmei naturally browsed the StarNet during the day. The most popular topic on StarNet right now is #Did you learn everything from today's "Ancient Blue Star Survival Guide"?#
In particular, Lu Xiaoyao's video, which could be considered the only one to complete the game, became incredibly popular.
Lu Xiaoyao's experience of completing the game - she completed it, but it felt like she hadn't completed it at all, she had absolutely no experience!
Netizens have summarized the secrets to passing the game—
First, you need three very reliable teammates!
Secondly, you need a businessman who will stick with you and work hard to sell boxed lunches.
Finally, you have to be called "Lu Xiaoyao".
Yan Hui listened to Mingmei's words with a smile, not finding anything wrong with her question at all. Instead, he nodded in complete agreement with Mingmei's statement—indeed, everyone died quite well.
Mingmei: ...
Seeing him like this, Mingmei could only look at her uncle Ruan Xun, who looked younger and had a kinder and gentler smile.
"Uncle Ruan Ruan, this game hasn't been touched in decades. Now it's undergoing a major overhaul. It can't just be to create job opportunities for me, can it?"
It's worth noting that the use of live-action NPCs was only secretly implemented after the game was updated.
"No, the military academies of the Federation and the Empire plan to cooperate with Hualan Star, and they will do so through this game."
Ruan Xun, a staff member of the Central Research Institute, a neutral faction in interstellar space, glanced at Yan Hui, who was eating normally, and then looked at Mingmei and whispered, "Research has shown that this escape game can significantly train and even improve human mental strength if the difficulty is appropriately modified. This is very beneficial for military academy students who operate mechs."
The stronger one's mental strength, the higher the level of the mecha one can control, and the more precise and destructive the actions of manipulating the mecha.
“In recent years, the Zerg have also been secretly evolving and becoming more and more rampant.” Yan Hui sighed as he spoke of this. “Hua Lan Star and its star system are not far from the Zerg’s range.”
Therefore, Hua Lanxing, a centrist party that has never participated in the struggle between the Federation and the Empire and is similar to the Research Institute, has also chosen to cooperate with them this time.
There has been no large-scale war between StarCraft and the Zerg for a century, so it is not advisable to announce the news of the Zerg's recent provocations directly to the public, in order to avoid causing unnecessary panic.
Therefore, they decided to transform the game into a training ground for military academy students and soldiers operating mechs to improve their mental strength.
"But isn't this game still open to ordinary people? Wouldn't that make the game too difficult? Like today..."
"So, the game needs to be updated and reconfigured. The difficulty and story will be different for different groups of people and their mental strength levels. It just finished updating today, and seeing so many people going in and playing it, I've really seen it all..."
"Indeed, the bizarre and varied S... gameplay, it's all thanks to you guys temporarily closing the passage." Ruan Xun had been watching the data of a group of military academy students entering the research institute early this morning, and naturally noticed some interesting things.
Listening to the conversation between these two uncles, each almost blurting out their true feelings, made Mingmei want to light candles in advance for the players who would follow.
Mingmei silently buried her head in the bowl. Her mother had told her that her two uncles weren't exactly good people when they were young.
To be precise, her two uncles are currently in the category of "retiring from their criminal activities."
"Yes, besides that, there's also the issue of strategy guides. I've seen quite a few players relying on strategy guides."
Mingmei nodded repeatedly at Yan Hui's point, as those players in the game had all mentioned that they were prepared.
"How can a game with a walkthrough unleash a person's greatest survival potential? How can you unleash your potential if you don't use your brain when doing tasks?"
"Yes, but it's impossible for everyone to play a game with a different storyline. Even if the characters are different, the storyline is still there. It's really not good to know it in advance."
"Exactly! I can't design an endless stream of new games, it's exhausting!"
Yan Hui and Ruan Xun were singing in unison. Mingmei looked up and glanced at her two uncles. Seeing their beaming smiles, Mingmei felt uneasy.
Help! These two are about to unleash their ultimate attack again!
