Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 323: "Early Access"

Shen Miaomiao: ?

Frozen on the spot!

There's a saying: 'When I type a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.'

Right now, Shen Miaomiao was exactly in this situation.

What was he doing?

Why was he handing the controller over to her?

Yes! These were questions! But they weren't my questions! They were the accusations from the depths of my heart!

"You..."

Shen Miaomiao's expression stiffened:

"Are you serious?"

At these words!

Gu Sheng shoved the controller into her hand, then closed the livestream chat and opened the Yiyou Platform.

He logged into his account, opened the ga library, and launched the already downloaded It Takes Two.

Pressing his own controller, then helping Shen Miaomiao press hers,

Next, in the third-person perspective view, the Cody character controlled by Gu Sheng turned around, facing the screen cara.

The sofa's folding footrest slowly extended, transforming the originally cross-legged seating into a comfortable leg-resting position.

Simultaneously, the sofa backrest tilted to a comfortable angle perfect for watching the large screen.

Gu Sheng stretched out his legs, found a comfortable position, and leaned back on the sofa:

"Now? Cozy enough?"

The living room lights weren't fully on, only the warm yellow light strips on both sides of the projection wall emitted a soft glow,

The massive screen displayed the ga screen.

Shen Miaomiao fell silent.

She seed to want to say sothing, opening her mouth slightly.

But ultimately nothing ca out, because she didn't know where to begin.

I originally wanted to use coziness for rebates.

But now, the situation had reversed.

This ga... was actually dual-platform login!

I fucking—!!!

Shen Miaomiao took a deep breath!

She had personally witnessed how terrifying the sales of dual-platform login gas could be!

Yes.

If "It Takes Two" were only a motion-sensing pod ga!

Then this ti's rebates would definitely be losses!

But now, that damned Gu Sheng had simultaneously released it on PC platform, achieving one purchase, two-player gaplay, dual-platform login, and even synchronized progress!

Rebates?

Not a chance!

Forget about rebates!

All my rebates were used to exchange for this cozy experience!

Thinking this!

Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but 'viciously' grit her teeth in her heart!

Fine, fine, Gu Sheng, so this is how you want to play?

If you're not benevolent, don't bla for being unjust!

Since my rebates were all used by you to exchange for this cozy experience, then I might as well enjoy it thoroughly!

Suddenly, anger rose in Shen Miaomiao's heart and malice grew in her gall!

Today is the day!

Anyway, it's not like these seven or eight hours matter anymore. Since you're playing like this, don't bla for 'early access'!

After all, I paid for it! You made all my rebates disappear!

Thinking this, Shen Miaomiao shook her head like a rattle-drum:

"Not cozy! Not cozy enough!"

"Ah?"

Gu Sheng was stunned:

"With dual-platform login, you get the gaming experience, and when tired you can plug in controllers to continue playing on PC, sitting on the cozy sofa, drinking soda, eating chips—isn't this cozy enough?"

Shen Miaomiao shook her head firmly, then stood up from the sofa and pointed at Gu Sheng:

"You! Close your eyes!"

"Ah?" Gu Sheng didn't understand what this little ancestor wanted to do now, but still obediently closed his eyes: "Then what?"

Rustling sounds.

In complete darkness, Gu Sheng felt Shen Miaomiao extend her little foot, nudging his legs outward, then lifting his controller-holding arm.

Then.

A faint, warm peach fragrance wafted over.

Soft fragrance and warm jade suddenly filled his embrace, gentle hair strands brushing against his neck, creating faintly itchy ripples.

"Okay, alright..."

In his daze, Gu Sheng slowly opened his eyes at Shen Miaomiao's embarrassed yet proud voice.

He saw himself leaning back on the sofa.

While Shen Miaomiao was nestled in his arms.

Shen Miaomiao's head rested below his collarbone, her faintly fragrant hair spreading over his chest like a shiny black waterfall.

She casually crossed her legs, her smooth feet resting on her knees, her slender fingers glowing with a soft, jade-like sheen in the dim, hazy light.

Gu Sheng was having trouble holding on.

Shen Miaomiao had the typical petite fra of a southern girl—slender and adorable-looking, but not bony at all, instead soft and warm like water.

Such intimate contact was really making him feel quite heated.

Moreover, in this position, just slightly lowering his gaze without even bowing his head made the not-too-tight cute strawberry pajama collar appear quite dangerous.

Most crucially, in this position, if he just slightly lowered his head, Shen Miaomiao's tilted, raised face was only a fist's width away from his.

"You you you... get down..."

After all, Gu Sheng was a normal man.

I'm a gentleman, but not to the extent of Liu Xiahui.

It was already sumr, and both their pajamas were thin and silky.

How could Gu Sheng withstand such intimate warmth of jade in his arms.

"I won't!"

Unexpectedly, the worldly-innocent Shen Miaomiao stubbornly refused, even squirming in Gu Sheng's arms, acting utterly spoiled:

"I just won't get down, this is what's cozy."

You really are my grandma!

Gu Sheng complained incessantly!

This isn't cozy at all, if you keep this up we're going to catch fire!

"You... you're crushing , I can't breathe... can we change positions a bit?"

In desperation, Gu Sheng could only use the 'I'm about to croak' excuse.

Reluctantly, Shen Miaomiao had to settle for second best, moving out of Gu Sheng's embrace to sit beside him, finding a comfortable position leaning against his shoulder.

Whew—

Gu Sheng secretly sighed in relief, picked up the controller, stole a glance at the little Nezha beside him who was grumbling with dissatisfaction, and chuckled helplessly to himself.

He slightly turned sideways, raised his arm to pull Shen Miaomiao's shoulder into his embrace, wrapping around her:

"Is this okay now?"

Since things had co to this, Gu Sheng didn't hesitate or hold back anymore.

Today was the day.

Anyway, it's not like these seven or eight hours matter anymore, consider this 'early access' for now!

"Hehe,"

Seeing this, Shen Miaomiao finally stopped her dissatisfied grumbling, giggled, and snuggled closer to Gu Sheng, leaning against his shoulder:

"Alright, let's start! Go!"

......

After entering their daughter's room, the two originally wanted to find their daughter, but unexpectedly got pulled into space by a sudden gravitational force.

Here, they encountered a toy gorilla.

The gorilla was purchased during their visit to the planetarium with their daughter, though co to think of it, it seed like a very, very long ti since they last took their daughter to the planetarium.

The toy gorilla heard their plan to make their daughter cry and wanted to protect its little owner, Rose.

To escape this place, Cody and May had to solve puzzles all the way.

Thus, brand new ingenious equipnt arrived once again.

This ti, what Cody obtained was a device that could make himself grow larger or smaller.

By toggling the button, Cody had three forms: normal size and weight regular form, small size and light weight shrunken form, and large size and heavy weight enlarged form.

As for May, she obtained a pair of gravity boots.

With the gravity boots, May could walk freely on various vertical surfaces, even walk upside down on ceilings.

Such design undoubtedly gave all players another round of fresh experience.

In this level, many puzzle designs revolved around "planes."

Even in one of the sub-levels of this major level, the entire ga turned into a 2D side-scrolling mode.

Cody above, walking on the ground.

And on the other end of the ground beneath him stood May.

The entire level seed split down the middle, becoming upper and lower sections. These two spaces, while not interconnected, could influence each other.

Thus, the two players needed to cooperate fully, running, jumping, or pressing chanisms in their own space to help their teammate in the other space pass the level.

Astonishingly brilliant.

Such design not only amazed industry professionals and reviewers in the gaming circle, but even soone like Shen Miaomiao, who knew very little about gas and had hardly played any, couldn't help but sincerely admire it.

She still rembered when soone once called Titanfall's ti travel level the greatest level design paradigm in history, even calling it a ceiling-shattering existence.

Shen Miaomiao didn't know.

The only thing she knew was that leaning against Old Gu like a cat while playing gas felt really wonderful.

Most importantly, after so gaplay, Shen Miaomiao realized that the controller gaming experience wasn't just about providing a cozy atmosphere.

Admittedly, the first-person perspective experience in the motion-sensing pod felt novel, exciting, thrilling, with imrsive overload,

Moreover, perspective changes were also a major feature of this mode.

From 3D tracking perspective, to 2D side-scrolling perspective, to cinematic transition perspective.

Every perspective switch was incredibly smooth, giving people a wonderful experience akin to watching an animated movie.

Shen Miaomiao exclaid repeatedly, laughing continuously.

The characters in the ga screen helped each other, passing levels hand in hand.

While the lovers outside the ga screen leaned against each other, laughing joyfully.

Perhaps this was also one of the anings of such gas.

The journey of repairing the love between a couple on the verge of breakdown in the ga, wasn't it also the bonding agent for couples' relationships outside the ga?

We passed through dreamy stargates, arriving before level gates filled with puzzles, solving the cooperative challenges left by the toy gorilla.

Where I cannot go, you can delve deep to explore key puzzle elents.

The heights you cannot reach, I can easily touch to find clearance keys.

But fortunately, I have you.

We are like two perfectly matching puzzle pieces, making each other's lives more colorful and vibrant.

The vast stars I cannot reach, you can stretch out your hand to touch, plucking the radiance to adorn my neck.

Though we are two different individuals, our differences make life more diverse and colorful.

I think this is the aning of this ga.

This adult fairy tale dedicated to all players reflects our lives, teaching us how to love each other, and how to love ourselves.

No one's life is worthless.

We are all flowers blooming in the human world. In the vast wilderness covering the mountains and fields, there will always be wind that matches you.

Oh, of course.

Life's journey won't be entirely smooth either.

Because we have different shapes, there will inevitably be bumps and stumbles during cooperation.

For example—

"Gu Sheng—! Can't you hurry up! I'm about to die!!!"

Amid crisscrossing lasers!

Exactly!

The toy gorilla sworn to protect little owner Rose was the final BOSS of this level!

Now, the BOSS battle had entered the third phase.

The shrunken Gu Sheng took the opportunity to enter the star UFO, trying to destroy this impregnable aerial fortress from within.

While Shen Miaomiao outside needed to dodge the chaotic laser sweeps across the arena, while also constantly guarding against the UFO's heavy attacks!

One, two... five, ten...

Lasers sizzled with deadly high temperature, continuously sweeping toward Shen Miaomiao!

Thud!

Thud thud thud!

The UFOs in the sky kept smashing down, creating circles of deadly whirlwinds!

Shen Miaomiao was practically grinding sparks out of the controller, with no ti to even glance at Gu Sheng's perspective!

The two originally snuggled together had now separated, both sitting upright, fully focused on the screen!

While operating, they still found ti to bicker!

"Ah—! Gu Sheng can't you hurry up! These lasers are getting more and more!"

"I'm going as fast as I can! How much faster can I go! There are chanisms inside here too!"

"Didn't you design this ga? Why are you still—oh my god—having so much trouble?!"

"I designed it but I still have to use the controller to pass levels! Can I just fly through?"

"I don't care! I'm going to slack off! My hands are sore!"

"Don't! Hey! I died! Wait until later to slack off!"

"Tch! Little trash! Can't even beat your own ga!"

"Shen Miaomiao if you keep muttering I'll slack off too, the lasers will keep increasing!"

"Ahhhhh—! You dog! Who taught you to make gas like this?!"

"Almost done almost done, hey don't headbutt ..."

"I'll crash into you hahahaha..."

"Just causing trouble, the more I die, the more lasers appear in your arena, don't you know harming others ultimately harms yourself..."
