游戏《艾尔登法环》中有哪些乍一看没什么，细想想却很可悲的设定？
1.王城内的饥民王城里有很多拿剑的低阶人形怪，就是坐在地上和背景沦为一体的那种，这些怪你走到他们身边他们都当你不存在的，不会主动攻击你，甚至你干掉他旁边的同伴，他也坐在那里半死不活。
我以为这怪就是这么佛系，或者精神有问题，毕竟其他王城里的怪隔老远就开始冲过来撒孜然丢雷火了，就这些人不乱动。
一直到我跑到了王城内的现实版大赐福，我才遇到了有攻击欲望的同类怪，这些怪都是在大赐福的厨房里面，尤其是围在锅子前的那俩一看到我进来就站起来开始砍人了。

为什么燃油车很少刹车失灵，而新能源汽车刹车失灵概率高，这是什么原因？
我觉得横向对比吧，把相同的因素尽可能剔除掉，仅保留明显差异的变量。
因此关于驾驶辅助啊，自动驾驶这些我们先不考虑它。
我觉得其实最主要的因素可以归结到两点：
- 同级别的电动车，在重量上显著高于燃油i车（又在动力上很容易达到高速）
- 电动车为了操作便利性引入的“单踏板模式”对于用户的习惯培养
我们先说第一点： 重量！
将车辆制动下来，在燃油车时代和电动车时代有点小区别：
- 燃油车的制动力，通常包括：发动机制动（来自于泵气损失）+制动系统制动力
- 电动车的制动力，来自于：能量回收力矩+制动系统制动力
而需要制动的动能呢，本身和什么形式无关。只与车辆的速度和质量有关。根据高中物理中包含的动能公式，制动总能量为

短评：从《艾尔登法环：黄金树幽影》的体验和评价来看设计者需要思考的内容
这期短评临时插播在第三期设计笔记之前，也是这个频道的第一期短评。今后短评这个系列会着重讨论一些我认为对游戏设计有所启发的游戏内容，会不定期更新。作为第一期的短评，我们今天就来讨论一下最近新发售的由FromSoftware（以下简称FS）制作的《艾尔登法环：黄金树幽影》（以下简称DLC），结合DLC玩家评价以及我个人的实际体验，有什么是我们需要在设计时注意的内容。
在讨论DLC设计内容之前，我们来回顾一下魂系列游戏带给玩家的战斗体验是什么样的。从恶魂到法环，只要是FS社制作的魂系列游戏，战斗内容主要都是玩家和BOSS之间的 强立回式战斗，也就是玩家口中所谓的“回合制”战斗。【立回】这个词来源于格斗游戏，大概描述的是对抗双方进行试探然后转入攻守阶段之后重新回到试探这一过程。

《艾尔登法环》新DLC究竟讲了一个什么故事？
半神米凯拉，唯一目的是成神。
那么如何成神？
在交界地之外，幽影之地是角人，稀人等一族的故乡。在幽影之地的塔，满足条件即可晋升神明，女神玛丽卡就是在此晋升神明。
米凯拉的成神是完全和黄金树或者黄金律法没有任何关系的。
首先需要一位幽影之地王，在王的基础上进入塔的神之门，最终成神。
最主要的就是寻找王。
幼年时期接触拉塔恩，发现拉塔恩有成为王的资质。
注意所有半神中仅有碎星将军有成为王的资质，（一个物品描述原话）不然米凯拉直接和玛莲妮娅成约定之王晋升神明了。
蒙格当米凯拉这么久舔狗也没让蒙格当王。
玛丽卡也是在幽影之地，神之门成神，实际上交界地仅有此处能成神。
黑刀之夜杀死了黄金葛德文，玛丽卡砸碎艾尔登法环，拉塔恩，拉卡德和玛莲妮娅共同攻打王城。
恶兆王反而守下了王城，此刻蒙格潜入圣树掠走米凯拉。

需要加 5.67 升机油的车，机油加到 5 升的时候启动了，会不会造成磨损拉缸？
我们正常换机油采用的都是重力放油法，机油这种东西本身是粘稠的，按照 重力放是没法完全放干净的。
别说重力放了，机油这种东西，你想特意把它清洗干净，都需要挺大的难度， 所以在每次更换机油的过程中，发动机润滑系统内部以及各个工作面都会残留部分机油。
按照我们目前的工作经验，这个残余的机油量大概会有300到500毫升。
极限状态下，即使你把机油放空，各个工作面其实也是有机油的，短时间原地着一下车，不会对发动机产生任何影响。
如果你的设计机油量是5.5升，那么大部分情况下，实际上加5升就已经达到了原厂设计的机油量，因为发动机内部还会有大概0.5升左右的残留。
而且有的车吧，尤其是豪华品牌，用的是 电子机油尺，不着车你根本就看不到机油量，很大一部分，甚至需要着车怠速半小时以上，才能读取到当前机油量。
