Chapter 1087: Eternal Reincarnation Design Plan

Everyone quickly stood up and welcomed Boss Pei.
Hu Xianbin gave the centermost seat to Boss Pei.

Pei Qian scanned his surroundings but did not see Bao Xu.

“Bao Xu went on another trip?” Pei Qian asked casually.

Bao Xu was often not in the office in his impression.
He was either traveling or on the way to a tour.

However, on further thought, there did not seem to be any tourist activities recently.

The Best Employee Selection was held in February and August.
There were still two months until the next selection, and there were no annual meetings recently.

Where was Bao Xu then?

Hu Xianbin quickly explained, “Boss Pei, Brother Bao has been helping out at the snack market recently.
I’m not sure about the exact situation.
Do you need him to attend this meeting?”

Pei Qian immediately shook his head.
“No need, I was just asking casually.”

Why was this Bao Xu messing around at the snack market?

Pei Qian was a little confused about Bao Xu’s motive.
He did not seem like he was someone who likes to poke his nose into others’ business.

However, that did not matter.
Bao Xu was not a gourmet taster.

It would be less dangerous for him to harm the snack market than for him to harm the games department.

In any case, Bao Xu would probably not be able to escape the fate of being a traveling companion in the next selection.
He was already in this state.
He could do whatever he wanted.

Everyone took their seats and the meeting continued.

“Boss Pei, after we received the task of revising ‘Eternal Reincarnation’, the first thing we did was to ask the designers of the organization department to read the original novel.
We specially invited the author over to roughly finalize the content of this downloadable content.” Hu Xianbin said.

“However, everyone’s opinions are not particularly unified.
The specific format of this downloadable content has not been finalized.”

“Just as well, Boss Pei, please give us some pointers! What should we do with the downloadable content?”

Everyone looked at Boss Pei, their eyes filled with hope.

Repent and be Saved had also developed downloadable content before.
It had produced some new weapons, new props, and even a reincarnation mode and random mode.
However, the situation at that time was different from now.

Previously, the downloadable content only supplemented the gameplay.
The content was not particularly rich.
The price was also very cheap.
It was just to find something for the veteran players of Repent and be Saved to do.

The downloadable content this time involved the development of the copyright of the book ‘Eternal Reincarnation’.
From Boss Pei’s point of view, it was obvious that he wanted to show the essence of the novel as much as possible and in making the downloadable content.
It was impossible to fool him easily.

However, the problem was that if they wanted to change the content of the fanfiction into the game, not only did they have to understand the plot of the novel, but they would also have to create a special design corresponding to the plot in the game.

These changes might conflict with the original gameplay of the game and needed to be made.

In that case, no one would be able to quickly reach a consensus.

Boss Pei arrived at the right time!

As the father of Repent and be Saved, Boss Pei would definitely think of a perfect solution!

Pei Qian pondered for a moment.
“Er… let me briefly emphasize two things before talking about the game.”

“The first matter has been notified previously.
Everyone must keep the development of the works of the inspiration class a secret.
Don’t leak it out.”

“The second thing is that everyone can engage in early preparations for the downloadable content development these two months before August 1st.
However, don’t start the development officially before that.”

Early preparations were not equivalent to development.

The concept of early preparation was relatively broad.
For example, thinking about the specific method of downloadable content in their minds, coming up with a few drafts, and even preparing some minor art resources in advance.
These were all considered early preparations.

That way, the System would not regard it as a new project and it would not affect the settlement.

However, once it was officially set up and the development schedule was out, there would be a clear plan for the release date of the game downloadable content.
Then, it would be considered a new project that would affect settlement.

Pei Qian emphasized this to ensure that the settlement would not be affected.

Hu Xianbin nodded.
“I understand, Boss Pei.
What you mean is that there’s a lot of content to prepare for the large downloadable content of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’.
You want us to dig deeper into inspiration and prepare well.
We’ll settle down and officially develop it after two months.
Don’t be too rash, right?”

Pei Qian: “… More or less.”

Obviously, Hu Xianbin and the others’ understanding differed from Pei Qian’s original idea by a hundred million points.
However, that was good enough since the results were similar.

“As for the downloadable content design… Er, what have you discussed so far?” Pei Qian continued.

“I can give you some suggestions, but you will decide in the end.”

At first, Pei Qian had not intended to get involved in the downloadable content design.
He had many things to do now.
It was just downloadable content for a game.
He did not even care if he did not pay attention to it.

However, Pei Qian suddenly thought of something and changed his mind.

Until now, Repent and be Saved has not been offered for free!

According to the System’s regulations, a standalone game could be given away for free if it was released for more than ten months and its current income had dropped to less than one-fifth of the revenue earned the month after it was released.

However, the problem was that Repent and be Saved’s income was still very high.
It would miraculously bounce back every time it was about to drop to one-fifth of the income earned the month after it was released!

The sales of Repent and be Saved’s kept ranging just like that.
However, no matter how much they ranged, they could not reach the target to become free!

That made Pei Qian very pained and confused.

Who was still buying Repent and be Saved!

The game had been released for two years.
Why was it still earning money?

It was ridiculous that it still could not be given away for free!

Pei Qian felt that these masochistic people continued streaming in because the difficulty level was not high enough.

Logically speaking, the difficulty level of Repent and be Saved should be able to dissuade a large group of players.
However, many people just had to follow the video and advance steadily after Teacher Qiao produced a very detailed walkthrough.
They would be able to complete it after suffering a little.

Many new gamers came because of the game’s reputation.
They relied on these walkthroughs to persevere until they cleared the game.
They contributed endless sales to Repent and be Saved.

He could not allow this situation to continue.
He had to increase the difficulty level!

Pei Qian planned to play a dirty trick.

The other games would place the downloadable content behind the main game.
Players would first experience the game content of the main game before experiencing the downloadable content.

However, Pei Qian wanted to put the downloadable content in front of the main game this time.

It did not affect players who had already completed Repent and be Saved.
However, if it was a player who had not played Repent and be Saved before entering the game, he would first experience the content of the downloadable content before experiencing the main content of Repent and be Saved.

On the other hand, the downloadable content had a special screening mechanism: They had to clear the contents of the first few chapters before they could pay to buy the downloadable content.
On the other hand, if they cleared the downloadable content, they would get a 70% discount when they paid to buy Repent and be Saved’s main game.

It would not affect old gamers, but new gamers would definitely be greedy for a 70% discount.
That would reduce the number of people buying Repent and be Saved’s main game.
Wouldn’t that reduce the sales volume of Repent and be Saved’s main game and make it free once the System requirements were met?

The earlier it was made free, the less money he would earn!

Of course, Repent and be Saved would have a corresponding explanation before it was made free in order to take care of the players’ emotions.
What’s more, players who spent money to buy it in the short-term would be able to obtain a guaranteed refund service.

This plan was perfect, but Pei Qian had two key problems.

The first was the difficulty level.
Repent and be Saved was already very difficult for him.
He had only managed to complete it with the Pudu weapon.
How would Pei Qian himself complete the game if he increased the difficulty level?

Second, it was the problem with the plot.
There had to be a convincing reason to put the downloadable content before the main game.

Pei Qian had not thought about these yet.

He had never read the plot of the Eternal Reincarnation book.

Thus, Pei Qian decided to ask everyone about their discussions before offering his opinion.

Hu Xianbin handed a document over.
“Boss Pei, this is the idea we sorted out previously and the story outline of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’.
Take a look.”

“Our current consideration is to start with the identity of the protagonist.”

“The entire story happened before the world of Repent and be Saved collapsed according to the background story of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’.
The protagonist was a powerful warrior in the human world.
His skills were extraordinary.
He walked around the world, trained his skills, and became a Martial God.”

“However, no matter how strong a person was, he would still face death.
In his later years, he tried everything he could to escape the fate of death.
He forced an artisan to create a demon sword that could destroy souls, stain it with the blood of eminent monks, and soughted witchcraft to create a pill that could allow him to enter the border of death and float between the two worlds.”

“This Martial God used the demon sword to kill the Black and White Impermanence when they came to claim his life.
He slaughtered all the ghostly soldiers who came to capture him under the control of the demon sword.
He entered the netherworld and caused the entire Six realms of rebirth and existence to collapse.”

“However, at the last moment, he woke up and realized that he had made a huge mistake under the control of the demon sword.
All the demons in Hell were stirring and about to awaken.
Thus, he went deep into Hell and fused his body with Dao to become the first Prison Keeper.”

“Our current idea is to arrange for an NPC in the starting village.
Players would obtain a tool after they witness the death of the Prison Keeper.
After handing it to the NPC, they would be able to transmigrate to the downloadable content to experience the story of ‘Eternal Reincarnation’.”

“The game’s combat system will continue to be used.
We will only add some new weapons and props, such as special combo skills and execution skills.
It will highlight the protagonist’s identity as the ‘Martial God’.
It will become a stark contrast to the weak protagonist of Repent and be Saved.”

Pei Qian pondered for a moment and did not reply immediately.

It was obvious that such changes were already rather “bold” to Hu Xianbin and the others.

This was only a downloadable content after all, not a sequel or a new game.
