Losing Money to Be a Tycoon Chapter 1231 - A DLC Could Actually Achieve This!

Chapter 1231: A DLC Could Actually Achieve This!

Meng Chang’s mentality took a 180-degree turn.

He suddenly did not care about the commission for this month anymore.

That was because what he got from Boss Pei was priceless!

The complete “Pei family publicity method” could not be measured with tens of thousands of yuan.

At that thought, Meng Chang relaxed and continued watching the second half of Teacher Qiao’s video.

…

“Second, let’s return to Eternal Reincarnation and talk about its different spiritual core from Repent and be Saved.”

“Some people say that ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ has lost the experience of struggling in the sea of bitterness like Repent and be Saved. What’s more, this complicated combat system has polarized the experiences of different players, causing that feeling to disappear.”

“I think that this phenomenon does exist to a certain extent.”

“However, my view is different: I think that this is the designer’s intention. That’s because the content that Eternal Reincarnation wants to express is fundamentally different from Repent and be Saved!”

“Let’s start with the game content and simply compare the difference between Repent and be Saved and Eternal Reincarnation.”

“The story of Repent and be Saved happened after that. It was a broken world. The protagonist was an ordinary person. He did not have any brilliant combat skills. He had to go through painstaking means to enter h.e.l.l.”

“The story of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ happened in the beginning. It was a world that had not collapsed yet. The protagonist was a Martial G.o.d. His combat skills were at the peak. He defeated various powerful enemies along the way. It could be said that he killed everyone in his way, be it human or G.o.d. He only realized that he had made a huge mistake when he reached the end.”

“The ident.i.ties of these two protagonists are obviously different. How can we use Repent and be Saved’s situation to link them together?”

“Think about it. If the Martial G.o.d was like ordinary people in Repent and be Saved, struggling and sinking in bitterness, how could he be called the Martial G.o.d?”

“In the game, there are also strengths and weaknesses in the role of the Martial G.o.d because of the difference in players’ standards.”

“However, when discussing this question, we will definitely focus on the image of the Martial G.o.d in the official novel. In other words, the players who could kill the Black and White Impermanence without any injuries at the beginning and clear the game like cutting melons and vegetables would then be able to show the true state of the Martial G.o.d.”

“Similarly, Repent and be Saved and Eternal Reincarnation have two different combat systems. They correspond to the protagonist’s ident.i.ty.”

“The protagonist of Repent and be Saved is an ordinary person. That’s why he could only roll awkwardly to avoid the enemy’s attack. He found a suitable time to strike. After experiencing countless deaths and rebirths, he finally broke the destined rebirth.”

“The protagonist of Eternal Reincarnation is the Martial G.o.d, so he can quickly step and dodge. He can avoid fatal attacks through a millisecond of movement. He can proficiently use various weapons, control his own aura, deflect the opponent’s attack, find flaws, and kill them in one blow.”

“Many details in the game are also constantly reminding players.”

“For example, the Martial G.o.d used the power of the demon sword to leave marks in suitable places. After dying, he was revived there through the power of the demon sword. The protagonist in Repent and be Saved used the damaged Buddha statue.”

“A conscientious player would realize that the position where the demon sword left its mark would be exactly where these damaged Buddha statues are.”

“Coupled with some information in the game, it’s not difficult for us to know that the mark left behind by the Martial G.o.d is constantly emitting a demonic aura, affecting the surrounding area. In order to eliminate this influence, a certain eminent monk carved a Buddha statue to suppress the demonic aura.”

“After many cycles, when these Buddha statues became severely damaged, the protagonist shouldered the mission in Repent and be Saved.”

“There are many places where Eternal Reincarnation and Repent and be Saved intersect. This means that Eternal Reincarnation is not like the downloadable content of other games. It only increased one more piece of the original game content. Instead, it directly walked through another time line and formed a unified whole with Repent and be Saved. It became two sides of the same coin!”

“Therefore, some people want to find the feeling of Repent and be Saved in Eternal Reincarnation. This is impossible.”

“Eternal Reincarnation has the same principle as Repent and be Saved in breaking the dimensional wall, but the target audience is different!”

…

Meng Chang might not understand games and would definitely not suffer in games like Repent and be Saved or Eternal Reincarnation but he still watched it with interest.

He had long heard that Repent and be Saved had the effect of breaking the fourth wall. Players died time and time again in the game. They could empathize with ordinary people who were the protagonists. They could be closer to and understand the despairing world.

However, what was up with Eternal Reincarnation?

Meng Chang continued watching.

…

“I said in my previous video that the more noob the player is, the more he should play Repent and be Saved. That’s because they would only be able to understand the protagonist’s despair and pain after dying repeatedly with terrible skills.”

“If you give up, you will actually achieve the ending of ‘repent and be saved’. If you give up on the game, the protagonist in the game will sink into bitterness forever.”

“As for those true experts, because they died very few times, they easily pa.s.sed. They would not be able to experience the feeling of struggling to survive.”

“This time, Boss Pei created Eternal Reincarnation to make up for this regret for these experts. He wanted them to feel like they had broken the dimensional wall!”

“Compared to ordinary players who died time and time again, the game journey of an expert player is more in line with the Martial G.o.d’s original story. Thus, the mentality of the two is more in line.”

“I think that many players who could kill the Black and White Impermanence in the preface should feel the same way as me. They should have a strong sense of pride and feel that they are omnipotent and invincible. What Ten Yama, what Life and Death Magistrate? Aren’t they all dead souls under my sword?”

“With this mentality, we’ll kill our way through the Road to the Underworld, walk over the Bridge of Forgetfulness, and walk leisurely through Yama’s palace, clearing the six realms of rebirth and existence…”

“We relied on powerful martial skills to kill enemies who dared to block in front of us one by one. We ignored them even though they kept sending us warnings.”

“The old monk once told us that even a superb martial skill could not cut through life and death. He told us that we were about to be bewitched and persuaded us to repent and be saved.”

“The Black and White Impermanence denounced us angrily. We reject them and are sent to h.e.l.l, never to be reborn.”

“On top of that, Granny Meng, the Magistrate, and the Ten Yama… all of those bosses said some lines, threatened, or tried to dissuade players when they were fighting and dying. However, none of us cared. We just waved our weapons and cut them down one by one.”

“It was only when we cleared the six realms of rebirth and existence and returned to the mortal world to see the tragic state that we realized that we had already made a huge mistake.”

“Thus, he entered h.e.l.l and sacrificed himself to achieve Dao Integration, becoming the first Prison Keeper.”

“During the entire process, our emotions were exactly the same as Martial G.o.d’s: We had strong power, but we swelled because of this power. We thought that we were doing the right thing, but in fact, we made a huge mistake.”

“On the other hand, those who are willing to give up and entrust everything to the demon sword can also be seen as Martial G.o.ds who have no responsibilities. Their situation is even more tragic. They can only be controlled by the demon sword and fall into eternal rebirth.”

“This is obviously another way to break the fourth wall!”

“Eternal Reincarnation and Repent and be Saved are fundamentally the same ways to break the dimensional wall. They both resonate emotionally by connecting players’ actions with the protagonist in the game. They also unknowingly drive players to follow the protagonist’s style. That way, they would have a deeper understanding of the plot.”

“That’s why I said that ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ is not an ordinary downloadable content. It and Repent and be Saved are one and the same. It covers all players with the feeling of breaking the dimensional wall!”

“Unbiased.”

“Now that you understand this, you will know why Eternal Reincarnation is placed in front of Repent and be Saved as downloadable content.”

“That’s because for a gamer who has never come into contact with Repent and be Saved, playing Eternal Reincarnation might not be better, but it would be more reasonable!”

Qiao Liang’s meaning was not difficult to understand.

The combat system of Eternal Reincarnation was more complicated, so the difficulty of playing it might be higher. Of course, there might be an example. This was only a relatively common situation.

Thus, the experience of playing Eternal Reincarnation might not be better. That was because if he could not adapt to this combat system, he might die even worse than Repent and be Saved.

However, this arrangement was more reasonable.

That was because the story of Eternal Reincarnation was in front and the story of Repent and be Saved was in the back. This arrangement would allow them to better understand the development of the entire story and the ins and outs of the story. The difference between the Martial G.o.d and ordinary people would strengthen the suffering of ordinary people. It would catalyse players’ deep understanding of Repent and be Saved’s story.

Finally, Qiao Liang made a simple ending.

“In my opinion, Eternal Reincarnation did not just achieve 100 points as downloadable content, but 120 points!”

“It is not simply and roughly taking out a portion of the content and forcefully grafting it to the main body of Repent and be Saved. Instead, it used a more brilliant method to redo the combat system, redesign the timeline, use the reused scenes and resources to show us another possibility of two sides of the same coin!”

“At first, I felt that it was a pity. I felt that such a novel combat system could be used to create a new game or Repent and be Saved 2. That would definitely make more money.”

“However, Boss Pei’s thinking is indeed different. He used the original material and cornerstone of Repent and be Saved. After polis.h.i.+ng it, he combined the two different games and the different combat system perfectly!”

“This shocked us. Can a downloadable content actually achieve this?”

“Perhaps the content of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ is not enough to produce an episode of ‘Products of the G.o.ds’. However, I think that it has shown us a perfect answer to downloadable content. It has achieved 120 points out of 100 points. This is the true way forward for downloadable game contents!”
