Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 204: People Can Die!!!

Sssk—sssk—

The doctor approached Yun Zai, carefully squatting down to tightly bind her wrists and ankles to the wheelchair.

"Thank you so much for coming, kid. I need to hurry and wash my hands..."

As he spoke, the doctor picked up a DV cara and placed it by the sink, apparently intending to record the upcoming surgical procedure.

Yun Zai was practically in tears.

"Can we not do this... Seriously, let's not..."

"I really have a hemorrhoid surgery scheduled next week... If you keep this up I'm quitting the ga..."

The excessive oxygen intake made her head spin intermittently.

Nervousness.

Fear.

Utter terror.

Watching as the muttering doctor pressed a forearm-length knife against her cheek before slowly lowering it to her abdon, Yun Zai was on the verge of complete breakdown!

"Holy shit! No no no no no! Seriously stop! I'm cured! I'm totally cured now!"

"Just stab to death if you want! Just don't do that previous shit again holy f—!!!"

Even if this was just a ga, she really didn't want to see that scene.

Especially since this was a motion-sensing pod!

Just imagining that procedure being perford on herself?

Yun Zai felt chills run down her spine!

And!

Given Old Thief's level of psychological perversion, he might actually implent it!

At that mont, the doctor spoke:

"You know, I'm a bit concerned..."

"You've spent too much ti with Father Martin... I hope you haven't been brainwashed by him."

"After all, he's always putting on airs, constantly quoting scripture."

"No offense, but I think he... might be a little crazy."

You're criticizing soone else???

Yun Zai could hardly believe her ears.

You're switching from small surgical knives to cleavers to bone saws...

I can't tell if you're preparing for surgery or slaughtering pigs!

And you're telling you think the priest is crazy?

But!

When in Ro, do as the Romans do!

So Yun Zai quickly nodded repeatedly:

"Absolutely right! Spot on bro! I think he's a total psycho too!"

"And we're not close at all, really not!"

"He even cut my power before - a bastard like him only survives by sheer dumb luck,"

"All he does is mutter nonsense,"

"Today he's preaching, tomorrow he'll be running pyramid sches,"

"Why don't we beco sworn brothers right now and rid Mountain ntal of this nace—"

"HOLY F—!!!"

"WHY ARE YOU SWITCHING TO GIANT SHEARS NOW WTF!!!"

It was a complete dialogue of the deaf.

Yet Yun Zai realized her sweet talk wasn't just ineffective.

After testing two 'weapons', the doctor seed unsatisfied.

Now he was picking up a pair of giant shears!

These enormous scissors!

Looked exactly like the ones property managers used to trim bushes.

Snip snip!

The scissors made two sharp snapping sounds in the doctor's hands.

Yun Zai felt her blood run cold!

'Hahahahaha Yun Zai went from psycho to scaredy-cat instantly'

'Miracle player still farming jungle! (Tilting)'

'Yun Zai about to tilt too'

'Doctor: Hey~ hello~ hahaha~ o_O'

'Security guard: We swore brotherhood, pain should be split 50-50'

'Holy shit those shears, one cut gives tetanus, two cuts et your ancestors'

'Motion-sensing pod man, imagine getting cut by those... yikes'

'Can't imagine, absolutely can't imagine'

'This beats that hospital director with the iron rod'

'Oh shit oh shit oh shit! It's coming!'

'...'

Amidst the barrage of shocked comnts—

Snip snip!

Yun Zai watched helplessly as the doctor approached, lifted her hand, and placed her index finger between the blades!

Old Thief showed so rcy after all.

But not much.

Because!

Yun Zai could clearly feel that in this special location, her full sensory experience had been enhanced!

Golden Wind's team seed to have fine-tuned the sensory details specifically for this scene!

Combined with Yun Zai using Yiyou X2's built-in sensory enhancent!

At this mont!

The cold, sharp sensation of the shears against her finger was amplified infinitely!

This bastard is going to cut off my finger!

"Hey—!!! HOLY F—!!!"

Yun Zai instinctively tried to pull her hand back!

But the doctor wouldn't let her have her way!

The doctor firmly pinned her hand down and forcefully squeezed the shears!

Crrr—eeeek—

Snip!

Yun Zai felt a sinking sensation in her abdon!

The unprecedented imrsion made her scalp tingle as she scread uncontrollably!

Too real!

While Golden Wind hadn't gone so far as to simulate actual finger-cutting pain.

Everything else!

From sound to tactile sensation!

Had been ticulously adjusted by them!

Instantly, overwhelming fear gripped Yun Zai's heart like a giant demonic claw.

Even with pain sensitivity set to level one, she now felt like it surpassed level five!

Because this comprehensive sensory feedback had induced even more intense phantom pain!

"No!!! AHHHH—!!! HOLY F—!!!"

Her vision turned blood red!

With a plop!

Yun Zai watched her right index finger fall to the ground.

She began thrashing wildly!

"FUCK YOU!!! HOLY SHIT!!! YOU PSYCHO! FUCK! JUST KILL ! AH!!! KILL !!!"

Genuine terror.

The sudden appearance of the fat man had frightened her before, the ghostly psychopath had startled her, being chased from all directions had made her nervous.

But!

None compared to the impact of watching her own body being mutilated, her finger actually being cut off!

Because after losing her finger, Yun Zai could clearly feel the absence of sensation in that digit.

This fear of physical disability ca from the deepest recesses of her soul.

But it wasn't over!

As Yun Zai's bloodcurdling screams echoed!

The doctor seed provoked!

He raised his hand and slapped her hard!

A rough roar exploded in the operating room!

[Are you listening! Huh? Don't space out... DON'T SPACE OUT!!!]

[At least you can still hear!!!]

With that!

He raised the shears again, this ti positioning them on her left ring finger!

Madness!

Through her blood-streaked vision, feeling the stinging pain in her finger bones, Yun Zai felt her psychological defenses completely collapse!

All the previous fears she'd experienced seed to find their outlet here, erupting all at once!

The shears made a crisp snapping sound!

And Yun Zai's despairing screams filled the livestream—

"AHHHHH MY HAND HOLY F—!!!"

"PEOPLE CAN DIE! PEOPLE CAN DIE! PEOPLE CAN DIE!!!"

"AHHHHHH—!!!"

[Livestream ended]

[456,000 viewers]

A scare-quit!

Actually, in Gu Sheng's previous life, this segnt wasn't considered particularly scary.

At most, it was just cruel and bloody.

But this was a motion-sensing pod.

Built upon powerful full-sensory systems.

The finger-cutting scene terrified countless players worldwide!

Especially!

When you could actually watch your own finger being cut off!

This level of fear was unprecedented not just in horror ga history, but in the entire history of gaming!

Nearly 80% of strears got kicked out of their motion-sensing pods at this point!

"Fuck—! Fuck—! My hand! Is my hand okay goddammit!!!"

Pew couldn't take it after the first finger and imdiately exited the pod to check his fingers were still intact.

"Ahhh—! I fucking can't! This is too perverted I can't take it holy shit!!!"

Zhou Jie also paused the ga, hugging her hands and screaming in terror.

"This is fucking terrifying! That tactile feedback is too much, I'm sweating bullets here bros."

Ayin grimaced while shaking his hands, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

"It hurts like hell! Motherfucking banana waterlon lollipop snake-skin level pain!"

Piāo Teacher, who had set pain to level five, was spinning in place unable to sit down!

This wasn't just for show!

Because right now!

Regular players were experiencing the sa terrifying ordeal!

...

"No no, I really can't continue... You take over..."

At Daily Gaming News' online eting room!

The previously lively room now only had Lin Xiaong and Hao Xianming left.

They'd already completed their evaluations and reports for the editor-in-chief.

The core assessnt was simple—

Escape: Good; Silent Hill: Not good.

While Silent Hill was a complete ga with high production values that could be considered a quality horror title outside the mainstream 'shooter-racer-sports' genres, surpassing Kora's previous horror gas.

But!

Compared to Escape.

Neither its concepts nor level design could compete.

Tonight!

To produce the first review of Escape.

Lin Xiaong and Hao Xianming decided to finish it in one sitting.

One night.

Given Golden Wind's advertised playti, it should be enough.

Thus, the two began playing in shifts.

By sharing save files, they could synchronize progress.

Through in-ga screen sharing, they could share experiences.

The only difference was while one played, the other could rest.

Taking turns being the guinea pig.

Now!

Lin Xiaong was unlucky - her shift coincided with the finger-cutting scene.

No matter how brave she was, she couldn't take it.

She completely broke down.

"...Okay, I've got the sync,"

Hao Xianming's voice ca through:

"Phew—my turn now—whoa whoa whoa! Why am I running right away!!!"

Turns out, after cutting off two of Miles' fingers, the doctor heard noise outside and left temporarily.

Hao Xianming took the chance to break free, pushing open the operating room door with bloody hands.

Unexpectedly!

Right outside!

That previously stabbed security guard had resurrected!

Or maybe he never fully died, just passed out from pain.

Now revived, he started shouting incoherent abuse!

His commotion!

Naturally brought the doctor back!

Hao Xianming was stunned!

Completely unprepared, panicking with no idea where to run!

Fortunately!

Lin Xiaong could still see his screen!

"Circle the pillar."

"Huh?"

"Go around the pillar, exit through the door the doctor ca from."

"Oh! Ohhh! Shit shit... run run run!!!"

Hao Xianming's personality was rather rigid, but such people often had exceptional execution.

Lin Xiaong was quick-witted, plus more experienced with horror gas.

Working together, Hao Xianming barely dodged the doctor's attacks, executing a perfect pillar-dodge before escaping right under the doctor's nose!

You could clearly feel!

After the 'Mountain ntal Massacre', the ga's pacing accelerated!

Like the climax of a symphony.

As more docunts were collected, the truth about Mountain ntal Hospital beca clearer.

Indeed.

While the Murkoff Corporation publicly presented itself as a philanthropic organization 'selflessly' operating this ntal hospital.

In reality, they had been conducting experints on ntal patients.

Including but not limited to modifications, sex changes, near-death experints, brain damage, mind control, etc...

Among these projects, the most successful was Experint No.179: the "Walrider Project."

According to docunts, this was an 'advanced technology' project.

But due to unknown reasons, sothing went wrong.

Just as Miles was driving to Mountain ntal Hospital, 'Walrider' went berserk, not only destroying the hospital's restraint systems and releasing dangerous patients, but also slaughtering all security personnel sent to suppress it.

Its killing thod was peculiar.

Players could see from security footage—all soldiers sent to suppress it would be torn apart by an invisible force, either having their heads twisted off, throats ripped out, or simply exploding into gore.

As if... killed by a 'ghost.'

Now!

They were close to uncovering the truth.

But first!

They needed to escape this mad doctor's pursuit!

To leave this perilous third floor where death lurked around every corner, their only hope was finding the elevator key!

"But the problem is... we've searched twice already..."

Hao Xianming gulped:

"Where's the key?"

As Hao Xianming walked down the ward corridor nearing the lobby, there was still no sign of the key.

Suddenly!

Snap!!!

A pair of giant shears stabbed straight through the duty room door to Hao Xianming's right, the sharp blades stopping inches from his head!

"HOLY SHIT!!!"

Hao Xianming jumped in fright, instinctively crashing through the left ward door!

Looking back!

The doctor had burst out wielding the shears!

But in that instant!

Both Hao Xianming and Lin Xiaong shouted: "The key!!!"

Indeed! Hanging on the duty room wall behind the doctor was a rusty key!

"Circle around! Then get the key from the duty room!"

Lin Xiaong instantly formulated a plan!

Her 'human puppet' Hao Xianming didn't hesitate either, running further into the ward before taunting the doctor:

"Hey... dumbass! Co get !!!"

Vrrrm—!!!

The doctor charged with raised shears!

Hao Xianming deftly dodged around a pillar, switching places with the doctor before sprinting for the duty room!

Slamming the ward door shut!

Rushing into the small room!

Just as he was about to close the duty room door, Lin Xiaong instructed:

"Don't close it! Just grab the key!"

"Oh! Right!"

Though unsure why, the obedient Hao Xianming trusted Lin Xiaong.

He rushed to the back of the duty room and grabbed the key.

Turning around!

The doctor was already in the hallway!

Their eyes t.

A half-second of silence.

Then the doctor roared, choosing the shortest path—climbing through the duty room window to kill Hao Xianming!

At the sa mont, Lin Xiaong shouted:

"Exit through the door!"

"Now!"

"RUN!!!"
