Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

Most of them also enjoy playing games.

Kim Hyung-tae is an example of this.

When it comes to choosing games, he can be described as an omnivore.

I play everything.

So he also tried out the "Adventure World" demo.

And then he did something really outrageous.

I got completely hooked.

At the beginning of the game, perhaps in a demo, there was no character customization option.

I was immediately taken into the game.

The game's graphics are quite good, almost identical to those of Galaxy Paradise.

Of course, from a technical point of view, they can't be exactly the same. The demos are all directly reused materials.

Kim Hyung-tae also played "Star River Paradise".

Therefore, the reuse of materials is immediately apparent.

However, reusing materials is one thing.

This did not affect the player's experience at all.

The demo begins with an animation that roughly shows someone opening their eyes, followed by the sound of wind rustling through the trees.

According to the prompt in the upper left corner.

At this moment, he should be outside a village called Fallen Leaves.

The game's graphics are quite good.

The sun in the sky illuminated the world brightly, yet it did not feel scorching hot.

White clouds drifted overhead, the sky was exceptionally blue, and a wisp of smoke floated gently upwards in the distance. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would stir up the leaves of the trees behind, creating ripples in the air.

In front of the character is a grassy field, and further away is a wooden house with some tools in front of it, which looks like a logging camp or something similar.

Behind him was a forest, and beams of light pierced through the trees and shone on the ground—it was beautiful.

"The visuals seem to be an improvement over Galaxy Park?"

"Hmm, no? It's the change in rendering direction, lighting and shadows, and modeling detail."

Kim Hyung-tae observed it carefully.

A professional conclusion was quickly reached.

This "Adventure World" demo uses a more realistic rendering style, and with the engine's lighting and shadow upgrades, the final visuals actually look better than "Star River Paradise".

After observing the scenery for a while, Kim Hyung-tae controlled his character to walk forward.

At this moment, another player appeared not far in front of him. The reason he was sure it was a player was because there was a string of numbers above the other player's head.

In the demo, all players are numbers.

Upon seeing players appear, Kim Hyung-tae confirmed that this was indeed a multiplayer game.

I want to go up and check out the multiplayer interaction settings.

Unfortunately, that player ran down as soon as he appeared.

They ran too fast.

Kim Hyung-tae wanted to observe the scene further, so he didn't pursue it.

After taking another look at the visual style...

Kim Hyung-tae greeted Yoo Hyung-seok.

"Have the studio's planners and artists stop what they're doing, download this game, and let's all play it together."

Liu Xiangxi glanced at Kim Hyungtae with considerable surprise.

Keep in mind that this is during working hours.

The last time we all played a game together was when "Victory Goddess" was being developed. Kim Hyung-tae gathered everyone together to play Battlefront Girls.

However, Liu Xiangxi didn't ask any further questions.

He nodded and went down to make the arrangements.

Kim Hyung-tae observed the surrounding scenery for a while.

Control your character to follow the direction the player just left in and continue walking forward.

After walking for a short while, he came across a logging camp.

However, at this moment, the lumberyard had already been occupied by the player who had just been there.

That player was like a child who had just received a toy.

He was chopping around with an axe.

They then set their sights on the only man-made structure in the area, intending to cut down the logging hut.

"It can really be destroyed? Mr. Lin added a destruction system to an MMORPG!?"

Watch as one player painstakingly demolished half a wall.

Kim Hyung-tae was a little surprised.

Destroying systems is common in single-player games.

However, it rarely occurs in multiplayer online games.

He bypassed the big shot who had already drawn his bow and aimed at him.

Continue along the path.

A few minutes later, a medieval classical village appeared before his eyes.

"The art style is fantastic."

The village is not very big. A dirt path leads to the entrance of the village, which is surrounded and protected by a simple wooden wall.

If we say that the characters in Galaxy Paradise are more "fantasy" in style...

So the style of this "Adventure World" is "realistic".

Especially in the details.

Most of the villagers wore patched gray linen clothes, and their hands and legs were covered in yellow mud.

His face and hair were unkempt, dirty, greasy, and matted like ropes, and you could even see some grayish-brown unidentified insects crawling around on his head.

The buildings in the village were mostly constructed from a mixture of mud and wood, and quite a few of them were damaged.

At first glance, poverty is clearly visible.

As Kim Hyung-tae controlled his character to approach the village, the men who had been sitting on the edge of the fields all stood up.

They blocked Kim Hyung-tae's way into the village.

A chat window then popped up.

"who are you?"

Dialogue options in Adventure World.

It's much richer than other games from Spark.

There are six dialogue options from left to right, and players can freely choose the dialogue options.

These dialogue options are clearly closely related to the character's attributes.

"Somewhat like a tabletop role-playing game?"

The most ordinary

I'm a traveler and would like to find a place to rest and recuperate.

To the threat of force.

[Raising his fist, he said, "Who do you think I am? Get out of my way!"]

From fraud

I am a guest of your lord.

Each option has a different success rate depending on the player's numerical value.

Some important choices involve luck, while some dialogues can be made 100% successful using items.

However, at this time, Kim Hyung-tae was not very familiar with these things.

So I chose the safest option.

"I'm a traveler and would like to find a place to rest."

"We don't welcome..."

"Let him in, I'll take him to see the village chief."

Two voices rang out at the same time; the first was that of a male villager, while the second was that of a young girl.

Chapter 272 A Delicate World

It's clear that this part was acted out.

The girl was clearly not an ordinary person; this could be easily seen from her clothing and the reactions of several villagers.

And at the same moment.

A book appeared in front of Kim Hyung-tae.

As the pages of the book are turned, a quest appears before the player.

[Regional Mission: Obtain Village Entry Permit]

[Mission Summary: You have arrived in Fallen Leaf Village. The villagers don't seem very welcoming, but you have been given the opportunity to visit the village chief. Make a good impression and obtain permission to enter the village.]

[Quest Rewards: Leaves Village Entry Permit, Adventure EXP *100]

Through the mission description, Kim Hyung-tae vaguely sensed that this game was different.

Adventure World doesn't seem to have a clear main quest like other games.

Instead, tasks are generated based on the situations the player encounters.

At the same time, another question immediately came to mind: will every player get a girl in the official version?

Or will it only happen once?

Of course, at this point it was just a demo, and Kim Hyung-tae had no way to verify it.

All he could do was let his mind wander as he followed the girl toward the center of the village.

Upon entering the village, the atmosphere became even more stylized, with snotty-nosed, dirty children and a few women.

Many people are standing on both sides to observe.

This place is somewhat authentic. For a small village like this, there are probably only a few outsiders throughout the year. Most of the visitors are merchants, so whenever there are visitors, the villagers will always put down what they are not doing and come to watch.

Is this part of creating a sense of immersion?

The village road wasn't long, and soon the girl stopped in front of a brick house.

"arrive!"

The house in front of me was clearly different from the mud-brick and thatched-roof houses in the village.

This is the only two-story building in the village. Excluding the yard, the building itself occupies about 200 square meters. The roof is covered with bluestone tiles, and the exterior walls are made of white stone.

When Kim Hyung-tae first glanced at the house, he was thinking that even in such a poor place, the living environment of a minor nobleman like the village chief was vastly different from that of ordinary people.

However, once inside the room, it turned out that things weren't quite as they seemed.

The seemingly white wall in the distance is actually covered with moss and sparse mountain vines, and the pure white exterior has been stained with yellowish stains.

What does this mean? It means that the house may have been renovated recently and has not been maintained for some time.
