Chapter 348: A Horror Game of "Critique of Reality".

Chen Mo nodded: "Well, I know this." However, there are very few people who do horror games in China at present, and for VR games, although horror games are not considered mass games, its immersion is the best among all game genres, and it can also fill the gap in the market a little. ”

Qiao Hua pushed his glasses and fell into deep thought.

Chen Mo said again: "Minister Qiao, this game must be graded, just like "Diablo", you must be an adult to play. ”

"Also, the player's physical condition needs to be checked through the VR game pod before he enters the game, and people with heart disease and similar conditions can't play. The game also monitors the player's physiological indicators throughout the process, and disconnects immediately once the indicators are abnormal. ”

"At present, there are also some VR horror games abroad, and the relevant settings and security measures have been relatively perfect, and we will do it according to this standard, so there will be no big problems."

Qiao Hua sighed lightly: "Yes, I know this." However, the current attitude of the game committee still discourages this kind of overly bloody and violent game, because this kind of game has certain risks and may have some subtle effects on people's psychology. ”

Of course, we all know that this kind of impact is actually very small, just like watching a horror movie, and no one will become psychopathic or even kill or harm people because of watching a horror movie. From my personal point of view, I think there are some things that can be done in this regard, but you have to come up with a set of arguments to convince Chairman Zhang. ”

Chen Mo thought for a moment: "I have a set of rhetoric. ”

Qiao Hua was a little interested: "Let's hear it?" ”

Chen Mo briefly explained his thoughts.

After hearing this, Qiao Hua frowned and thought for a while: "It seems that it can also be used." This is indeed a good reason, but it is difficult to say whether or not you can convince Chairman Zhang, but you can try. ”

"You wait here, I'll go and ask Chairman Zhang, and I'll call you later."

Qiao Hua walked out of the office quickly and went to find Zhang Zhongxiang, the chairman of the committee.

The situation in the parallel world is different from the previous life, and the game review has been much more relaxed. Moreover, there is no absolute standard for which games can pass the review and which cannot pass the review, and whether the horror game "Escape" can pass the review and whether it can be played by players still has to let Chairman Zhang Zhongxiang make the decision.

About half an hour later, Qiao Hua returned.

"Come with me, Chairman Zhang is waiting for you. You only have twenty minutes, think about the wording, if you can't pass this time, you probably won't have a chance in the future. Qiao Hua said.

"I see, Minister Joe." Chen Mo followed.

Qiao Hua led Chen Mo to the office of Chairman Zhang Zhongxiang, knocked on the door and motioned for Chen Mo to enter.

In the office, Zhang Zhongxiang was reading the concept draft.

Seeing Chen Mo coming in, he pointed to the seat in front of the desk: "Sit." ”

Chen Mo sat down and cautiously observed Zhang Zhongxiang's expression.

Zhang Zhongxiang frowned slightly, it seemed that he was also suspicious of this concept draft.

Chen Mo stroked the virtual bracelet on his left wrist with his right hand, silently called up the props, and used them.

Zhang Zhongxiang coughed lightly and said, "Chen Mo, I've finished reading your concept draft." This game is a horror game, and there are a lot of bloody and violent elements, according to the consistent attitude of the game committee, this kind of game cannot pass the trial. Because in this highly immersive state of mind, this kind of game will have a certain impact on the mental health of the player. ”

Chen Mo said: "Chairman Zhang, I don't think this is necessarily necessary. First of all, as an adult, the three views have been formed, and a healthy person will be a little frightened when experiencing horror movies, horror games, and even haunted houses. ”

"At present, in my country, horror movies and haunted houses exist, which shows that as long as the horror experience is well controlled, there will be no harm."

"At present, the protection mechanism for players in foreign horror games has been very mature, and there are so many horror games in foreign countries every year, and I have never heard of a player who dies suddenly or is stimulated to cause harm to society, so this impact is actually not so serious. In other words, the effect is completely avoidable. ”

Zhang Zhongxiang frowned and said: "The main thing is that there is basically no healthy and positive content in the horror game, which is difficult to convince the traditional and conservative members of the game committee." ”

Chen Mo asked rhetorically: "Then Chairman of the Committee, do you think that 'criticism' itself is a positive content?" ”

Zhang Zhongxiang was stunned: "Criticism? ”

Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, it's like an essay criticizing some ugly facts." ”

Zhang Zhongxiang thought for a moment: "It should be counted." ”

Chen Mo continued: ""Escape" has a spiritual core, and its spiritual core is criticism. In this game, the protagonist acts as a journalist with a sense of justice and investigates a psychiatric hospital to uncover its crimes. ”

"And the psychiatric hospital is actually a place where they are controlled to conduct terrorist experiments, and these big foreign conglomerates, for the sake of profit, ignore the lives of patients, wantonly trample on the law, and even have high-level figures acting as a protective umbrella for them."

"Players will take on the role of this righteous journalist and expose the evil behavior under the control of big business, which is itself a critique of ugly facts, but also an exposure of the seemingly beautiful false picture abroad."

Zhang Zhongxiang blinked, and suddenly felt that what Chen Mo said seemed to make sense.

Indeed, if the story background of "Escape" is placed in China, it is impossible to pass the trial, there is no doubt about it.

But what if you put it abroad? It seems that this is indeed a kind of criticism and exposure.

Zhang Zhongxiang thought about it again: "However, this is a completely fictional story. ”

Chen Mo explained: "Chairman, art comes from life and is higher than life. Is there still less such horrific genocide and genocide in the history of the world? The hell on earth that Auschwitz shows is far more horrific than the one shown in this game, and this concentration camp still exists, reminding people to always remember that I make a game to torture human nature, isn't that a positive, positive thing? ”

Zhang Zhongxiang: "......"

He flipped through the design concept draft of "Escape" again and read it from beginning to end.

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Zhongxiang finally nodded: "Okay, this game has passed the review for the time being, but you must remember that the background of the game must not change, and it must take place abroad." Also, you have to do a good job of setting up the VR equipment to ensure that the game doesn't adversely affect the player. ”

"If the players strongly protest, the game will be taken off the shelves, and if it has caused a serious social impact, you can't be exempt from responsibility, understand?"

Chen Mo nodded: "Okay chairman, I understand!" ”
