Chapter 62 - There is Actually a Story Mode? (1/2)
In that case, Lin Wan has given me preferential treatment when he said that he will try his best to gift me a Red Kilin?
After all, the market price for the Red Kilin was 888 yuan…
However, Chen Sha shook his head shortly after and threw that absurd thought out of his head.
How could the Red Kilin cost 888 yuan? It was just a bunch of f*cking codes in the game. Why would anyone possibly buy it?
If no one bought it, wouldn’t that make the Red Kilin worthless?
Yeah. As long as no one bought the Red Kilin, this game would be very fair for all players.
Chen Sha really didn’t get the intentions of this game. He had seen FPS games like Counter Strike which did not have any in-game purchases and only profited from selling the game itself. He had also seen FPS games like Bullet Hole which were free to download but included premium systems that encouraged players to spend money to climb up the premium ranks.
However, he had never seen a game like Ocean Stronghold.
Driven by curiosity, Chen Sha exited the in-game shop and explored the other features of the game.
“There are many new combat modes in the game. Apparition mode and biochemical mode? Never heard of such things.
“What the heck? Why is there even a story mode?”
Chen Sha was pleasantly surprised when he saw the apparition mode and biochemical mode. However, those game modes didn’t shock him.
After all, it was not unusual for combat FPS games to come up with innovative game modes.
Then again, Chen Sha was stunned when he saw the story mode.
Be it Counter Strike or any other domestic FPS game producers, never had anyone come up with a story mode!
Creating a plot within FPS games was something that took a lot of effort but yielded less than satisfactory outcomes. Most domestic game producers were not able to accomplish that!
Some of the more renowned games included plots, but they were often huge projects that required huge amounts of investments. They were a completely different concept as compared to ordinary FPS games!
Sun Strike Studios had spent so much time on Bullet Hole to perfect every aspect of the game. Yet, they did not include a story mode either.
One reason was that Zhou Muyan felt that it wasn’t necessary. Secondly, he wasn’t confident enough to do it!
Why would Ocean Stronghold, which did not have much fame, dare to include a story mode when Sun Strike Studios didn’t even dare to do so in Bullet Hole?
That spurred Chen Sha’s interest.
He did not close the game as he had expected but instead decided to try out the story mode.
He was prepared to be bored and disgusted by it.
…
…
Entering story mode.
Blank screen.
Slightly long blank screen time.
Chen Sha almost thought that there was a bug with the game. However, soon after, sounds were heard from his earphones.
“Is he dead?”
“I don’t know. Maybe he’s barely alive. However, there is no way he will live after contracting the G Virus.”
“Let’s throw him here then.”
The voices were in English and had a native accent. Luckily, there were subtitles on the black screen.
The screen seemed to have jolted in the dark, signifying that the protagonist had been thrown aside.
Afterward, the footsteps slowly faded.
