Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 275 Cursed Blood Hunter's music actually contains spoilers? !

The popularity of the black monkey will naturally make the topic discussion full of human diversity, and everyone is prepared for this.

This is just the beginning.

Later on, there will not only be idiotic narratives about "traditional culture", but also formulaic idiocy about "not praising Black Monkey is equal to not supporting domestic 3A and equals patriotism".

These two seemingly different extreme groups are actually very likely the same group of people.

Faced with these paces, mental preparation alone is clearly not enough.

You have to prepare for different playing styles.

At least we cannot start from the essence of culture and art, or the specific content of the game.

What these people want is for everyone to fight, rather than arguing specifically about whether it is "good or bad" or "appropriate or not".

It is even less likely to be derived from the love for the original work and the traditional culture and art of the Xia Kingdom.

If you can't tell the difference, you will really fall into the self-proving trap.

To such people.

At this stage, it is best to divert the focus of the players' attention to prevent the conflict from escalating. It is best to accumulate the conflict for a period of time and find an opportunity to resolve it together. This is the most energy-saving way.

As for how to proceed next.

Li Can already has mature experience.

After being prepared to divert the attention of netizens in the current gaming circle, Li Can contacted Shinichi Yoshida and talked about the release of the trailer for the DLC "Church Hunter" of "Cursed Blood Hunter".

There is actually little correlation between the two.

They just used the same music producer.

Then I can only start from myself and do something about it.

The publicity surrounding the release of Cursed Blood Hunter was not exaggerated.

It’s simply that the major official accounts released a promotional video.

However, if Li Can wants to do something funny.

Sony will never refuse this free popularity.

There's nothing wrong with being used as a sample to divert attention.

Therefore, after communicating and discussing the content that could be disclosed, Li Can also prepared to start releasing joint updates on various official accounts.

"Cursed Blood Hunter" originally received a lot of attention.

If you want to spark discussion and attract attention, you don't need to make a big fuss.

Just need to further reveal the highlights of the collaboration.

Time passes slowly.

In a blink of an eye, another week has passed.

It’s two o’clock in the afternoon, and there are only three hours left until the release of the promotional video.

Li Can had already made warm-up preparations.

I posted a message on Weibo in advance.

[I am very happy to cooperate with Sony to compose the music for a boss battle in the "Cursed Blood Hunter" DLC, and it was selected as the promotional song]

[During the cooperation, I learned that "Cursed Blood Hunter" is an excellent game based on the Victorian era, integrating many aesthetic design elements such as Gothic style and Cthulhu]

[So, I have been thinking about how to make music highlight this kind of dark and withered grotesque aesthetics while satisfying the disgusting feeling. For this reason, I injected the blood of the ancient gods to feel the unknown.]

[This collaboration is very novel. I really like this kind of novel attempt. I hope I can have the opportunity to express my emotions in this style in the future, and bring the twisted divinity and chilling terror to the hunters.]

[Please dance to your heart's content amidst the screams, and let your madness run wild amidst the blood! ]

Devil Power’s official Weibo account is also Li Chan’s own official Weibo account.

It has tens of millions of fans.

It’s just that there are so few contents released on weekdays that many fans have forgotten that they were paying attention to such a thing.

When you see the dynamic update.

The fans who originally followed the account were gradually activated.

[Wow, the missing people have returned]

[No, it seemed normal at first, but the more I watched, the more it seemed wrong. Li Can, do you know what you are talking about? ]

[God damn it, Blood of the Ancient God, this is just nonsense. If you can’t come up with a divine song in your mental state, it would be an injustice to you, Blood of the Ancient God.]

[Good fellow! Are you really not pretending anymore?!]

[Brother Can, you are too modest. Do you still need to inject the blood of the ancient god? Ning is the ancient god himself! ]

[Key point: "very disgusting"]

[I can’t hold it in anymore. Brother Chan seems to have a special liking for this style. He doesn’t post other works on Weibo, but he has to do it this time]

【What else can I say? Crazy! 】

Fans were originally very interested in Li Can's mental state.

It has even become an inherent fan culture.

Now seeing Li Can personally playing with the memes and actively catering to the "settings" of netizens, it attracted a huge amount of attention.

Even many fans who don’t play games started asking out of curiosity, and finally learned about the unique game “Cursed Blood Hunter”.

About "Cursed Blood Hunter".

There are many UP hosts who provide concise summaries and analyses of stories.

cloud!
Let’s talk about the cloud first!

After the cloud passes, there will always be people who are interested and start playing.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t play.

Once you play it, you will really get addicted.

The difficulty of "Cursed Blood Hunter" is not high. The so-called difficulty lies mainly in the monsters that attack from time to time and the mental pollution that fills the entire game.

Not to mention, once you get used to it, this dark and strange game world can really attract players to play it and get a special sense of satisfaction that is different from other games.

Players who have experience as "cloud players" and have become old hunters have also begun to recommend the game to new players.

Comment section of Li Can’s official blog.

Not only has it become a major game discussion site, but players have even started asking about game story spoilers.

[Brother Chan! Is the handsome man in the church revealed by the authorities Ludwig? ]

[Who did you write the background music for? Maria?]

[Can you reveal more? What about the blood of the ancient gods? It makes me feel itchy.]

Seeing the comment section so lively.

Li Can chuckled.

Just two hours before the promotional video was released, it began to interact with netizens.

[I don’t know, but Ludwig looks a little different from what I imagined. But don’t worry, he’s very handsome.]

[The boss battle music I wrote for Ludwig was a very cool experience]

[Oh, this is also the promotional song for this promotional video. If you like it, please pay more attention to it.]

Seeing Li Can suddenly become active like a robot.

Netizens suddenly became more enthusiastic.

Seeing that Li Can seemed to have a loose mouth and leaked all kinds of information regardless of whether it was true or false, more players came to try to get in on the action.

Seeing this.

Li Can even let himself go and started to "maliciously guide" the players during negotiations with Sony.

Purely fooling fools and curious babies.

[Ludwig is a Paladin, but you will kill him]

[They will also pretend to be church hunters and steal his weapons]

[Reincarnation? Did Ludwig also transform into a beast? I don’t know about that, but I know that before his death, Ludwig was still thinking about the church. He was really, I cried to death, so gentle]

Not a single lie.

But it is eight hundred miles away from the real plot.

This technique is usually used to create contrast.

When players play the game themselves and learn everything, the impact and reshaping of their original cognition will bring even greater shock.

With the discussion.

Time passes slowly.

The trailer for "Church Hunter" also arrived as promised. Players finally got to watch the trailer they had been waiting for, and they immediately watched it eagerly.

at this time.

Mr. Daozi, a well-known former MOD producer in the gaming circle who currently works at Tencent and is very famous in the game production industry, also started a live broadcast to interact with netizens.

Teacher Daozi's famous work.

Of course, it is the top abstract MOD of the "Devil Hunter" DP band from generating electricity for love to becoming a regular DLC.

Thanks to Li Can's collaboration with him, Teacher Daozi became famous in the gaming industry. After making a huge fortune, he also joined Tencent Games and reached the peak of his life.

Of course, needless to say, Teacher Daozi has already become like Li Can, and is completely a die-hard fan.

Looking at the comments flashing in the barrage, asking him to make an abstract MOD for Black Monkey or Curse Blood Hunter, Teacher Daozi chuckled.

"Brothers, don't be in a hurry, let's watch the promotional video."

"I heard that Brother Chan wrote a soundtrack for Ludwig and wanted to use it as a promotional song. Let's listen to it first."

Immediately, the rice did not hesitate.

Click on the video.

The promotional video of "Church Hunter" was presented to the audience!
The cold sea was filled with mist.

The creaking boat was dragging an unknown monster in the shape of a human.

A clear candlelight in the mist, coupled with the completely atonal female voice singing in the background music, creates a sense of weirdness.

[The curse is still going on, it is hard to get rid of it forever, there is no escape]

The female voice singing in the background music rises quickly along with the string music.

in the picture.

Three figures holding instruments seemed to be conducting experiments on an operating table or pieces of flesh of creatures on an altar.

【Their blood is useless.】

boom!
The screen went black.

The game title "Cursed Blood Hunter" appears on the screen!
The brass instruments create a distorted sacred feeling, and the texture of epic and palace makes people's blood boil, but there seems to be a vague sense of ominousness.

It's just the beginning.

Many veteran hunters have already watched it with tears in their eyes.

This kind of emotional push and the mystery brought by the BGM instantly make people want to play.

[I’ll buy it! Is it okay for me to buy it?!]

[Fuck! This is Brother Chan, is this Ludwig's BGM? ]

[Goosebumps all over my body, a sense of déjà vu from a blockbuster movie! ]

[It feels so good! The taste is right right away! ]

In the passionate music.

The building of the Hunter Church appeared before everyone's eyes. Unknown humanoid creatures were crawling in the dark corners. The hunters looked up at the huge blood moon!
When strings take over from wind instruments as the main melody.

Three men in black walked forward with lanterns.

Like the last calm before madness.

[Not only did they release demons into the streets at night, but everyone became bloodthirsty and crazy]

[The chosen great hunters, start hunting now! Kill crazily and tirelessly! ]

Musical twist!

The female chorus soars directly to the height of C7, accompanied by the strong friction of the strings.

The hunters who were just strolling in the dark streets were now moving as fast as rabbits.

Opposite the hunters are the beastmen, their followers, ancient gods and demons.

Ludwig's distorted facial features and deformed body after his transformation into a beast flashed briefly.

The knives and saws in the hunters' hands created sparks, and they took brisk and handsome steps to dodge monsters flexibly.

After raising his gun to fight back, he used his weapon to severely damage the monster's internal organs, causing these twisted creatures to howl sharply.

[Fuck! This feeling! ]

[I am going to play the DLC "Church Hunter" of "Cursed Blood Hunter" now! 】

[My heart is itchy, really itchy, I can’t sleep! ]

[My mind is full of Yharnam, this church and the blood moon]

After the melody ends.

The scene returns to the green flower round window on the top of the tower.

Ms. Maria sat elegantly in the center seat.

The picture darkened.

The music disappeared.

A bell rang, and the screen only showed the title of this promotional video.

[Cursed Blood Hunter expansion pack: Church Hunter]

The promo is too short. Very short.

Even just two minutes.

But these two minutes of experience made the players excited, as if they couldn't wait to transform into beasts together, enter the misty dream and fall into the cycle of killing.

【Buy! I'm buying a lot! 】

[Don’t be fooled, only in the trailers and CGs can the protagonist be lifted up high. As someone who has suffered in Yharnam for a long time, I think these are all stunts. In real life, you will only be beaten around by the boss.]

[It feels so good. The combination of this BGM and the picture makes my head fly with joy]

[Wow, I'm so touched. Brother Chan didn't lie to me. This blood of the ancient god was definitely not wasted.]

In the barrage.

The comments of netizens revealed the destructive power of the promotional video.

In fact, whether it is the love for music, reading comics, watching movies, or playing games, the root cause is actually the pursuit of emotions.

Games are essentially interactive experiences with "emotions".

Beauty is the best emotion booster, even if this aesthetic seems a little weird.

"This is just amazing, it's so artistic, I don't understand art, but I feel like this is it."

Teacher Daozi exclaimed in praise.

It's not a fan's filter, but comes from real feelings.

As the music sounded, it was as if you were in a dark street, listening to the screams of monsters.

Transform yourself into a hunter, face those unspeakable monsters and ancient gods, and fight with them.

"For a game, the music and images in the trailer can vividly show the style of the game and its artistic level, which is very important. Although I don't understand music, today I connected with Mr. Dalin, a music producer who has worked with Tencent Games, to analyze it for everyone."

The rice clapped its hands.

This immediately excited the audience in the live broadcast room.

Players all think very similarly and they all want to know more about the game’s story content, gameplay, as well as novel settings, characters, skills, etc.

In many games, being able to analyze the story at the musical level will attract the curiosity and attention of many fans.

soon.

Voice communication during Daozi live broadcast.

After greeting the audience, Teacher Dalin suddenly spoke with emotion.

"I watched this trailer several times. The amount of information and shock this music brought to me was too great. It may be a little different from what everyone understands, but I feel that Brother Chan gave a considerable degree of spoilers in the music."

"I even have a feeling that this piece of music will become a very unique and iconic piece in the history of game music. At least, in a game with a K-style flavor, this piece of music will be unique and strong."

This statement came out.

This immediately aroused greater curiosity among the audience in the live broadcast room.

[What the hell? There are spoilers? Is this true?! ]

[Wow! Such a high rating? ]

Even Teacher Daozi was stunned by such an evaluation.

Immediately, his eyes lit up and he urged Teacher Dalin.

"Say it!"
