Chapter 139: Chapter 115: Ga Imrsion (Part 2)
Huazi also noticed this incident, but they didn’t take it to heart, nor did they follow the suggestion of the water army to take "Garbage Disposal Fun" off the app market.
They have already obtained the personalized customization version of "Divine Grace Continent."
Tianba Studio specially designed a version of "Divine Grace Continent" for them, with very few NPCs and outstanding picture quality.
Based on this premise.
Huazi plans to give their AI voice assistant a virtual image.
For this matter, they even produced a 2D animation titled "Where is Xiaoyi?" using "Divine Grace Continent."
The animation tells the story of a dark, stormy night with thunder, when the AI assistant living in the digital world suddenly opens a mysterious portal to the otherworld.
From then on, she has a body!
Not only did she co to life, but she could also run, eat, and adventure like a normal person...
The core content of this short animation is to tell everyone that Xiaoyi has her own exclusive image!
This image is drawn.
Chen Ba isn’t very clear on who drew the original design, but it does look good, and the voice is sweet and pleasant.
The most important thing is that Huazi verified his guess, which is with high computational power support, the NPCs in "Divine Grace Continent" can actually speak.
This speaking is not the dumb script-reading like traditional voice assistants but integrates certain behavioral logic and language Q&A logic into the speech.
It sounds a bit complex.
Chen Ba understands that previously, AI voice assistants wouldn’t actively engage unless you actively wake them up or speak.
But now they take the initiative to converse.
Although the Q&A segnts are still sowhat dumb, even occasionally irrelevant, it’s definitely better than the old "you ask, I answer" model.
"A little sneak peek."
Chen Ba advised Yang Dong: "Divine Grace Continent will usher in a major version update, delivering a revolutionary gaming experience!"
NPCs being able to speak is not surprising.
But under circumstances where there are no voice actors, NPCs organize language themselves and speak according to preset story scripts, that’s surprising.
This will bring monuntal changes to the ga, greatly enhancing the sense of imrsion and engagent in the ga.
It’s not an exaggeration at all!
Why are worlds created by excellent 3A gas so fascinating and colorful?
Besides the visuals, part of the reason is that most of the NPCs have dialogue, and there is dedicated voice acting, giving players a strong sense of imrsion.
Now "Divine Grace Continent" has it too.
NPCs have AI voice acting, although the lines are still the sa, speaking those lines with sound instead of text boxes shows a completely different imrsion effect.
Of course!
Supporting NPCs to speak will be very demanding on computing power, relying solely on the player’s computer configuration may only support 1-2 NPCs speaking simultaneously.
That ans in the sa scene, if multiple NPCs appear simultaneously, at most two NPCs can have AI voice acting, other NPCs remain as usual.
But that’s enough.
Players usually don’t engage multiple NPCs in one conversation; it’s typically one-on-one interaction.
Players with better computer configurations can simultaneously interact with two NPCs, listening to them argue or chat.
Poor configurations won’t work.
Players with poorer computer setups may face situations where NPCs speak slowly, taking a long ti to finish a sentence even in one-on-one interactions.
Actually, this is similar to AI drawing.
With a good graphics card and large mory, a picture can be drawn in seconds and the resolution is high. With a poor graphics card, it takes a lot longer, several minutes or even longer to draw a picture.
The new version update of "Divine Grace Continent" mainly aims at letting NPCs speak, enhancing player imrsion in the ga.
Saying this, Chen Ba feels a bit regretful.
Initially, the ga’s imrsion in "Divine Grace Continent" was quite good; players also liked this sword-and-magic otherworld.
But ultimately, it strayed off course, turning into an NPC-centric perspective, with the Hero (player) perspective being secondary, otherwise it wouldn’t have missed this year’s TGA ga award nomination.
He investigated a bit.
Actually, "Divine Grace Continent" scored high comprehensively, and many judges supported this ga. But when discussing the ga, one flaw beca infinitely magnified...
"This is a ga, not an animation!"
Undeniably, if "Divine Grace Continent" was a group-thed otherworld animation work, it would definitely be among the most excellent.
But as a ga, the player presence in "Divine Grace Continent" is really too insignificant, even inferior to GalGa gas.
The NPC perspective is quite interesting.
Watching these NPCs go through various events, gradually grow, see a broader world, and et loved ones, is also a form of enjoynt.
But players experience the Hero’s perspective, and what is the Hero doing? The Hero is binge-watching!
Putting aside the Hero’s off-track actions, rely focusing on the main ga storyline, in many judges’ eyes is a point deduction, definitely a shortcoming in the barrel.
No comparison, no harm.
Compared to the rich experiences of NPCs, the main story of the Hero is really too old-fashioned. If players could role-play these NPCs and experience their vibrant adventures, it would indeed be worthy of an award.
It’s based on this point that "Divine Grace Continent" ultimately missed this year’s TGA Best RPG ga nomination.
The Steam Platform made up for it with a "Most Creative Ga Gaplay" award, but apart from the annual best, other awards from the Steam Platform are generally not very prestigious.
"It’s alright!"
Yang Dong smiled and comforted: "Although ’Divine Grace Continent’ wasn’t nominated for TGA, it’s a comrcially successful ga."
It’s really successful!
The personal edition sold nearly 2 million copies, not to ntion the professional and personalized customization version, directly allowing Tianba Studio to upgrade and take off instantly.
How did a major taxpayer co about?
Isn’t it just relying on the monthly sales figures from the professional and personalized customization version, piled up hard!
Furthermore, there’s Xianyu Digital.
The GAL League is in full swing, as the event’s attention increases, its popularity has successfully broken out into mainstream.
This event not only gave all teams great exposure but also revived "Star Emperor," an old ga released a year and a half ago.
A large number of new players rushed in.
The arrival of new players not only boosted ga skin sales but also made Xianyu Digital’s business even more booming.
This ti, Ba ran out of stock...
As the most well-connected online distributor, even Xianyu Digital sold out, showing how hot the business is, being the top in the network wouldn’t be an overstatent.
Of course!
The stock shortage, in fact, also has sothing to do with Old Huang. Originally, high-end graphics card sales were just about manageable, wouldn’t be too much.
But with NVIDIA entering the field, winning the Zhonghai Station champion in its debut, the exposed array of black technology tempted many to consider replacing their graphics cards with new 40-series ones.
The sa 4090Ti.
Others using it don’t find it so potent, but once Old Huang’s enters, his 4090Ti reference card seems enchanted, making others cry and wail.
Under such circumstances, everyone considers the 4090Ti very powerful, being is the strongest Nvidia card of all ti, people who weren’t planning to upgrade to high-end flagship graphics cards were tempted after watching the competition.
For this situation, Chen Ba can only say too naive.
The 4090Ti reference card Old Huang uses, he says it’s a 4090Ti, do you really believe it’s a 4090Ti?
Chen Ba dares to guarantee with his life, that’s not a 4090Ti, but an experintal model of the next or even the next-next generation from NVIDIA!
It might even be from the 60 series, with a different basic architecture, using unspecified nanoter processes, but it’s definitely impressive.
If Su and Intel don’t act and bring out new things from the lab, the annual grand championship might really be easily won by Old Huang.
Because...
Old Huang, known for his precise knife skills and love for squeezing toothpaste, is showing such sincerity this ti, if A cards don’t make a statent, discontent is a minor issue, the key is what to use to compete for the annual grand championship?
