They decided to open anyway, and since everyone was already there, they dressed up as bunny girls and danced.
Several people, including the captain (who is also the player), watched the performance together.
The overall plot, setting aside the casino setting and the act of cheating, is actually not outrageous.
Even the entire plot itself is part of a formulaic process.
When a crisis arises, a benefactor steps in, resolves the crisis, and everyone celebrates.
This formula isn't just used by miHoYo.
For example, the game "Girls' Frontline" had an event during last year's Spring Festival.
It was when 97 was setting off firecrackers that he accidentally set Springfield Cafe on fire. He was then chased around by Springfield and eventually managed to escape by hiding under the Commander's desk.
After the commander helped 97 temporarily evade Springfield's pursuit, he asked 97, who was lying under the table, what had happened.
After learning the truth, the commander took 97 to apologize to Springfield and then personally took charge of rebuilding the café.
The player, who plays the commander, also makes a cameo appearance as the shopkeeper.
Kenta Okawa really enjoyed that event.
Because when he plays the role of the shop manager, he can personally select various different drinks for the dolls.
Every time the androids come, they ask the commander to order food for them.
If the player guesses correctly what the humanoid likes to drink, some special events will be triggered.
It's okay if you don't guess correctly. You can find out the humanoid's preferences through dialogue and trigger it again next time you encounter it.
The whole coffee shop is simple to operate, but it's very fun.
At the time, in order to trigger the storyline involving all the dolls, Kenta Okawa would not do any other tasks every day, but only the tasks at the coffee shop.
Upgrade the coffee shop, develop a new menu, and chat.
Logically speaking...
This event by miHoYo is actually the same.
A story about a crisis that arises because a character makes a mistake, and everyone pitches in to help.
However, the combination of a casino and bunny girls still feels a bit odd.
It's just a little strange, though.
Further down.
There are also specific gameplay mechanics, depending on the different timelines.
When Fu Han outsourced the project, he didn't outsource it through the in-game storyline, but rather through marketing and promotion.
This naturally leads to the need for a new user acquisition function.
After all, the purpose of promotion is very simple: to get players to play.
So in addition to the storyline and PV, this page also has a quest system.
Players can earn chips by signing in daily and by referring others. Chips can be used for lucky draws or exchanged for items.
Chapter 165 Differences
These are all routine operations.
In addition, because Fu Han hopes to achieve some results, this page also has a tipping feature.
Basically, players can give rewards to the Valkyries.
Because it's set in a casino, this tip is naturally defined as a gratuity.
There's also a popularity ranking based on the amount of tips players give.
At this time, Yae Sakura is ranked first.
If it comes to this point, then it's acceptable.
Even in the illustrations on the tipping screen, the Valkyries are dressed as bunny girls.
But it's okay.
It's obvious that the official team wants to use suggestive content to attract new users, so it's understandable that they're being a bit blatant.
"However, something still feels off..."
After watching the entire event, Kenta Okawa felt that something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Then he carefully examined the plot.
I also noticed some strange things in the settings.
For example, each character illustration has a background description, which includes phrases such as "...".
"With her beauty, she'd definitely attract men here who would shower her with money."
Is this describing a Valkyrie?
Afterwards, Kenta Okawa finally understood why he felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Why are there other people watching the performance, and not just me?"
"Mihoyo is showing a complete lack of respect for the characters in their own games."
"But it is indeed quite erotic."
"It feels like fan fiction rather than official lore."
Kenta Okawa scrolled down the message board.
I found that most of the comments from European and American players were similar.
The discussion mainly focused on which character was more erotic.
There was little reaction to the other elements, though.
Some players are also calling for a doujinshi (Japanese doujinshi).
"This is indeed very suitable for drawing books."
to be frank.
Looking at these comments, Kenta Okawa didn't know how to feel.
As someone who played Honkai Impact 3 extensively back then, he felt that this setting was somewhat inappropriate.
In other words, he felt he had gone a bit too far.
If this were on some mysterious website, Kenta Okawa would shamelessly call him a genius and ask where to download the stripped version.
It feels a bit awkward to see this on the official website.
For example, in the later stages of the "Dust White Forbidden Zone" series, the explicit content became too overtly suggestive, which made some people feel uncomfortable.
Ultimately, it was just discomfort, a feeling that it wasn't necessary to go to that extent.
But we'll still play games.
That's it; at least you won't feel angry.
He still likes the bunny girl, and to be fair, the animation is pretty good, even though it's a bit vulgar.
He inevitably compared himself to Xinghuo again.
Yes, just before that, Spark also released a bunny girl skin.
For example, the Battlefront Girls also have a bunny girl skin, but that skin's design is...
One day, the commander came across a video of someone dressed as a bunny girl while browsing short videos, and he watched it for a long time.
95 felt inexplicably jealous.
She then bought a bunny girl outfit, intending to "take back" the commander's.
However, in the storyline, after wearing the clothes once, 95 felt embarrassed and put them back in the storeroom to hide them.
And then.
By chance, the mischievous squad of the Girls on the Frontline found this outfit.
Although the clothes were found, no one in the entire base claimed that the clothes were theirs.
And so, with the nagging of Captain 97, this whole affair turned into a Cinderella contest.
The dolls all put on the bunny girl outfits.
They did it all to see who dressed better, hoping to find the "Cinderella."
Many interesting things happened during that time.
For example, WA2000 secretly used padding to make her breasts appear larger, and was therefore found guilty of cheating.
For example, when Springfield wore it, her chest was completely covered, which was quite a treat for the Commander.
Ultimately, 95, still caught up in some inexplicable emotions, took the initiative to admit that she was the one who bought it.
Everyone was surprised when they discovered that the bunny girl outfit was actually bought by someone who was least likely to have bought it at 95.
Then, this incident triggered a kind of involution within the human form.
I never expected that someone as upright as 95 would do such "fancy" things.
As a result, other dolls followed suit.
After the incident, many androids secretly bought bunny girl outfits, intending to use them in the "final battle".
Because this whole system includes puzzles, a storyline, and ultimately a family-friendly experience, while also providing players with perks.
Players have given it high praise.
The entire set of Bunny Girl skins for the Battlefront Girls sold quite well.
Compared to the girls on the front lines.
Kenta Okawa felt that the design of this Honkai Impact 3 event was somewhat careless.
He can tell even if you apply the formula correctly.
It's not that you can't use formulas for many things, but you should put some effort into using them.
Playing with erotic content isn't something you can just finish by drawing a picture.
The accompanying gameplay is not well-developed.
Moreover, you are an official entity.
This is similar to the proliferation of doujinshi (fan-made comics) under the FATE franchise.
But FGO can't possibly have popular Servants dressed as bunny girls dancing in a casino.
A doujinshi is a doujinshi, and an official document is an official document.
After laying the foundational ideas.
He wrote the article while also providing feedback to miHoYo, suggesting they slightly modify the storyline, and posted it on the Honkai Impact 3rd overseas forum.
Then, he sent screenshots to several of his Chinese friends.
I'd like to ask them how they feel.
Contrary to his expectations, his friends didn't seem to care about his question; they didn't see the plot, only the bunny girls dancing.
Therefore, they now have only one question.
Where did you see this event?
Kenta Okawa found it strange and asked a question in return.
"Huh? This event isn't on your official website? How come? Honkai Impact 3rd events are always global. Can you open this webpage?"
When Kenta Okawa sent this news to his friends in China, Chinese players also received the message one after another.
have to be aware of is.
This world is transformed by the emergence of the Spark Platform and by the large number of sliced MANs.
Information spreads much faster between overseas and domestic players than in the previous life.
