"Black Myth" Feng Yi's March Book Recommendation Encourages Players to Explore the Real Africa

Feng Yi, the producer of Black Myth, updated his Weibo post at the end of March, sharing a special March book recommendation list with players everywhere. This time, he did not discuss technical details of game development, but instead turned his attention to unknown fields in the real world. The new book titled "1001 Days of Pouring Concrete in Africa" became the focal point of his recommendation this month.

The book's author, Cao Fengze, is a PhD from Tsinghua University and the owner of the well-known blog Peak Soda. The book records his genuine frontline reflections and complete timeline of experiences over more than a thousand days. Feng Yi believes that paper books provide a deeper reading experience than short videos. This appreciation for deep content appears particularly precious today amidst the rapid development of the game industry.

In his post, he used "Africa" as a metaphor for unfamiliar experiences, encouraging players to explore unknown fields. Feng Yi suggested increasing fresh experiences in the atomic world in the post-AI era to maintain sensitivity. The complexity of the real world far exceeds any algorithmic logic generated by programs.

Feng Yi once said that in this era, everyone should find their own "Africa". He also emphasized "seeking truth from facts", first "facts", then "truth". For players addicted to the digital world, this is an important reminder. Let's try to write our own unique stories in the reality sandbox.
