Chapter 443 The Long Night
Ye Feng looked at the Tianchi in front of him. The water surface was calm and smooth without any ripples. The wind on the mountain was freezing. Tourists coming and going stood in the distance and quietly admired the beautiful scenery in front of them. They took out their cell phone cameras to record this moment.
“What should the night look like on the snow-capped mountains?” The day in front of me was bright and dazzling, and the sunlight reflected on the snow made my eyes sting.
People who come to the snow-capped mountains all wear sunglasses, and they only take them off when taking photos.
White snow has a high refractive index for light. A large amount of ultraviolet rays entering the eyes can cause "snow blindness" and lead to temporary blindness.
"When we did Extreme Country before, everyone said that the excitement of this sport was beyond imagination." Ye Feng held her hand and walked slowly around the Tianchi, letting the cold wind blow on her exposed skin. .
“The reason why people think it should be deserted is because such a deserted environment should be sparsely populated.”
It seems to have become human nature that places lacking humans can maintain the most natural beauty of nature.
There have been fewer tourists these days, but you can still see tourists coming and going.
“What does a snow-capped mountain look like without people?”
There was a crunching sound of snowflakes squeezing and breaking under their feet. Footprints appeared one after another in the deep pits in the snow. In places where many people walked, the snow under their feet showed signs of being squeezed into ice. Occasionally, they stepped on it. There will also be a slippery feel on the surface.
Places frequented by tourists have been sprinkled with salt, melting the snow into water, and the white snow also has traces of dirt stains.
Although no one pays attention to it, when they see pairs of feet carrying mud and staining the white snow with dirt and dust, they will inevitably feel a little disappointed.
It seems that on such white snow, there can only be a series of plum blossoms stepped on by small mountain animals, or deep pits dragged by brown bears, or only a series of human footprints.
"In a snow-capped mountain without people, the night will be extremely long." Xu Xinghai followed him, and she just put herself in his shoes.
No matter whether there are people on the snow-capped mountains or not, the winter nights and days make people feel that time is slowing down.
The night should be pitch black and long and endless, and the day should be long and bright, but on the snow-capped mountains, there should be nothing but endless forests covered with heavy snow.
Time is so slow and fast. During the day, you will look forward to night. In the endless darkness, you will look forward to the sky lighting up quickly and leaving this desperate and cold winter.
“Well, this game is called The Long Night.” Ye Feng said, “The Long Night carries almost all of our expectations, hopes, and dreams.”
“So, after the long night, what will be our ending...”
"If you really stay alone on the snowy mountain, you will probably die." A pedestrian nearby seemed to have heard the conversation between the two. He came over and answered. Everyone was wearing hats and scarves and down jackets. She was wrapped up tightly and wore sunglasses on her face.
Except for the different clothes and body shapes, everyone looks the same.
"Are there any exceptions?" Xu Xinghai looked at the other party, because most of what she does is not games, but movies and TV shows.
In movies and TV shows, they always give people hope. No matter how desperate the situation is, the male and female protagonists will eventually support each other and leave this place full of despair.
Everyone will leave eventually.
"No." The passerby shook his head, "I usually like to travel in mountains and rivers. I have climbed countless snow-capped mountains, but every time I go to the snow-capped mountains, I pay great attention. In some forests, you can still rely on me if you go missing. He was holding something and waiting for rescue, but in the snow-capped mountains, he died before anyone could be found." The passerby who spoke seemed to be a parade enthusiast.
This type of people easily get along with other people. They may experience the natural scenery for a long time and cannot suppress their desire to talk when they meet similar people in the environment.
“In winter, the human body’s consumption will become higher, and there will be more desire to eat. If you want to maintain body functions, you must eat so that the body can warm up.”
"But if you really fall in the snowy mountains, how can you eat enough, how can you have food? Going out to find food will consume your functions. What can you eat in a snow-covered forest? How can small animals be so easy to catch, except for snow? Snow, in the end you will only die of cold and starvation." The passerby sighed helplessly.
Xu Xinghai took a breath. He knew Ye Feng's temper better than anyone else, and that was to be more sincere. If such a game was really made, then the final outcome of the protagonist would really be death!
“By the way, why are you discussing this?” This passerby is obviously familiar to me, but they are also the ones who are most likely to surprise people during travel, and this is how we make friends during the trip.
After all, the two would never take the initiative to talk to other people.
“We are engaged in game production, and we plan to make a hard-core survival game on the snowy mountains.” Ye Feng said with a smile.
In the game category, survival games are one of the most popular video game types.
occupies a pivotal position in all games. There have been many survival games in the past, such as "Don't Starve", "The Forest", and "Deep Sea Trek". They all have more or less science fiction or surreal elements.
If you really want to talk about hard-core survival, then "The Long Dark" is the best choice.
Every decision made in the game will subtly affect the survival time of the character. If you wait until you discover the mistake later and try to make up for it, it will be too late.
“That’s a bit difficult to do.” The person in front of him lifted his sunglasses down and looked at Ye Feng and Ye Feng more clearly and intuitively.
After seeing his face clearly, I realized that he was a middle-aged old man. "This is a bit difficult to do." The uncle shook his head. "Although I don't understand, I can probably guess that you want to make a survival game about a person in a snowy mountain, right?" He reached out and grabbed the accumulation on the stone next to him. heavy snow.
Grabbing it down, there was only a pit on the stone surface, but the original appearance of the stone surface was not revealed.
"Look, how can you find food in the snow where you can't even scratch stones?" The uncle shook his head. He only regarded it as the ideal of young people. He didn't know much about games, but he also knew that there were many super powers in them. Elements of reality.
“But you guys definitely need a lot of related elements to make a game.” He continued chatting with the two of them.
“I have been to many snow-capped mountains. I can tell you some basic common sense on snow-capped mountains. You will definitely use them when making games.”
"Thank you very much." Ye Feng didn't care that there was an uncle traveling with the two of them. The meaning of the journey has never been about the natural scenery and the friends he met on the journey.
"I have a very interesting question here, and it is also a question that most people have, that is, there is snow all over the snow-capped mountains. Why don't people drink and would rather be thirsty?" The uncle seemed to have thought of something, and the question was sealed. The most real question after a heavy snowfall.
“A lot of information on the Internet says that snowflakes contain air dust, soil, and bacteria, and it is not recommended to eat them. But if it is really sealed in the snowy mountains, who would care about whether there are bacteria?”
“Actually, the snow in the snow-capped mountains is edible, but we are trapped in the snow-capped mountains. What are the bacteria? There are still people who drink urine in desperate situations, right?”
"But the more trapped you are, the less you can eat snow directly to replenish your body. When there is no water, there is naturally no food. If you eat it directly in your mouth, melting snow will consume body heat, so usually In any case, the snow will be turned into water for drinking.”
The uncle said and looked at Ye Feng with interest, "You are making games, can you make these settings?"
Ye Feng nodded, these settings are not difficult.
While chatting, the uncle discovered that the game this young man wanted to play was completely different from what he thought. He thought that the other party would reject him if he said many hard-core things, but the other party's response was to add all of them. superior.
“Why don’t you add some magical elements? Fly to the sky and escape to the earth to learn martial arts or something?” He looked at Ye Feng doubtfully. '
“No need, since you want to be hardcore, then you have to be **** all the way to the end.” Ye Feng shook his head.
“If I were to make a game with fantasy elements, I would naturally come up with a separate piece of related content.”
"Hey, young people have ambitions and good things, but the first thing young people consider is survival. After having a promising career, we can slowly do what we like." The uncle patted Ye Feng on the shoulder, "Uncle Back then, I had to start a family first and then start a career. Later, my wife and children suffered a lot, and my wife also fell ill and the root of the disease is still in her body."
"I was stubborn at that time. I wanted to go my own way." The uncle walked in front. They walked slowly around the mountain road. They met other tourists on the road. Even though they were strangers to each other, the uncle would greet them enthusiastically. call.
Ye Feng and Xu Xinghai listened very carefully. Now that the uncle can travel, it is natural that his career has been successful. Otherwise, ordinary elders would not have the leisure to travel and climb mountains.
"I think I am capable, and I am indeed capable. Otherwise, I will not succeed later. It's just that when I was unknown in the past, I wanted to prove myself too much and wanted to make something unique from others." He laughed as he said, "So young people, don't be too stubborn. Do what you can do first, and then we'll do the **** stuff."
Ye Feng followed him and nodded. "You're right, if it were before, I wouldn't want to make this game." Xu Xinghai squeezed his hand slightly tighter.
Seeing Teng Feng's current appearance, one knows how difficult Ye Feng's experience is.
Ever since Fujifeng announced the suspension of the game, they have been criticized verbally and verbally by players, but they did not respond to any of them. They just quietly issued a message stating that they would no longer operate the game modification business after all games were suspended. information.
"Well, you just know it yourself." The uncle didn't say much anymore. Maybe it was because he was old. What he didn't want to see now was the stubborn young man taking detours and then suffering hardships along with his family and loved ones.
“It’s getting late now, let’s go back.” He looked at the sky in the distance and then at the time. Winter nights came especially quickly, especially on the snow-capped mountains.
He just plans to make a **** survival game, which does not mean that he really wants to do **** survival in the wild.
Many pedestrians were also walking back, and some tour guides also began to urge tourists to go back.
Ye Feng glanced at the sky. Compared with the sky just now, there were already some traces of darkness. He nodded and led Xu Xinghai back.
Snowflakes also began to fall in the air, falling on my shoulders little by little.
The uncle's prediction was absolutely correct, and the time was calculated exactly. However, as soon as he arrived at the hotel, the sky had already darkened completely.
Ye Feng took a photo of the night. In the photo, except for a faint ray of light, there was only white catkins in the sky. The whole world was cold and silent. The snowflakes on the mountains glowed with a faint white light. The heavy snow under the moonlight was particularly moving.
Ye Feng posted an update with the photo he just took.
