Chapter 66:
It's like having a magician who casts magic on this game.
Despite its low price, it doesn't matter much in the face of its horrific sales.
And after the sales miracle of "Minecraft" broke out, it seems to have re-enacted the scene of "Ayrden Circle".
The major media are full of praise for "Minecraft", and even the official domestic mall has released an unprecedented review.
'A game about cubes and adventures, hardly contains any popular game elements, the whole game screen seems to be back in the last century, it looks blurry and mosaic, and even the characters are just a cube box. ’
'But it can bring players the same perpetual fun as Lego blocks. The trend in the entire game industry is to pursue authenticity and accuracy. "Minecraft" brings players a feeling of being out of step with the times. ’
‘Here, the player is the center of the entire game world, and no one interferes; whether it is a small prison, a dark house, or a luxurious mansion, players can use their free imagination to create in the game. ’
'The survival mode players will collect resources as much as possible to build bases and weapons to deal with unknown dangers. Almost every player can find their own fun in the game. ’
'The fun of creation and destruction keeps players from getting tired, while reflecting a natural philosophy: life, death, regeneration'
‘Before this, the promotional video in the game said that the only thing that limits the fun of this game is the player’s brain hole. From the current point of view, it is obviously correct. ’
'If there is a type of sandbox game, it is undoubtedly Minecraft! ’
This evaluation is not too high, and it is even equivalent to the official endorsement in China, acknowledging the special classification of 'sandbox games'.
This has also made many game designers and game manufacturers at home and abroad bewildered.
The "Battlefield" big battlefield has not been re-enacted so far.
"Ayrdon Circle" is so difficult, but why it can be so attractive is not understood.
"Jelly Bean Man" turned variety shows into games, and it is not clear why there is such a big magic power.
Now, why did you, Chen Xu, create another 'sandbox game'?
How does this allow them to 'learn from? ’
And it's not just game designers at home and abroad who are equally embarrassed, but also major game channel platforms.
Because the impact of the "creative workshop" broke out.
This also draws attention to the brand-new platform jointly created by Nebula Games and Liger Entertainment: Wonderland (Eden) Pool.
Chapter 103 War kicks off: Modern Warfare!
With the popularity of "Minecraft", the content of the creative workshop is becoming more and more abundant.
Many players have discovered that it is particularly troublesome to play MOD for games purchased in other malls.
Not only do you need to go to these platforms to download the corresponding MOD files, and then install them in the root directory of the game, and even some special MOD players have to manually modify the startup items in the game files.
For some veterans who understand, this is not a big problem, but for Xiaobai, it is completely confused. Even if some MOD makers clearly write out the steps, it is still very difficult for the real Xiaobai. Difficult to understand.
This also caused many players to complain.
‘Why can’t other game malls have a creative workshop? ’
‘Yeah, I have to delete the file every time I install it. I downloaded a MOD and forgot to delete it and overwritten it, which crashed my game and had to download it again. ’
‘Indeed, this is too much trouble, how convenient the creative workshop is! ’
‘Strongly request the launch of the creative workshop! ’
'Forget it, I'll just go buy a game from the Wonderland Mall, just support Nebula games, and save trouble. ’
However, for the voice of these players.
It's not that the game mall has not been heard, but it is very embarrassing because they can't come out.
out?
It's not that it can't be released, the fairyland mall has already prepared a template.
But the key is how many games in their own mall can respond, because it is not only their mall that needs to respond, but also those game manufacturers need to cooperate.
And this thing is purely something that will only be spent, not income.
Whether the launch is worth it in the end is also a key core issue. After all, for these relevant responsible persons, they all have KPI indicators.
But not out?
At this moment, who hasn't thought that Nebula Games has thought about using the creative workshop setting to attract players?
I won't talk about "Ayrden's Circle", and "Minecraft" really has a module 480 or not, which makes a world of difference.
It's not that other game malls cannot be installed, but they are not as simple and mindless as the Wonderland mall.
In addition to the price, Wonderland Mall is also cheaper and has a better gaming experience.
Where does the player choose, needless to say?
But this is Yang Conspiracy, everyone has seen it through, but is there a way to solve it?
…
In the big goose game, Yao Xiaoguang sat on the top of the conference room, his face ashen.
Two years ago, they were still the giants of domestic games, but with the emergence of a game designer named "Battlefield" and Chen Xu, they suddenly changed.
In terms of size and scale, they are still the largest.
But unlike the previous rampant and domineering, Yao Xiaoguang saw the crisis.
In particular, games such as "Battlefield" and "Ayrden's Circle" were actually launched with a buyout system, which clearly wanted to break the inherent rules of the domestic game circle.
But that's fine. The emergence of the Wonderland game mall made them realize how ambitious this Nebula game really is.
Just like a recharged tiger, he inadvertently revealed his sharp claws.
Capital can affect a lot, but it cannot affect players. In addition, Nebula Games and even Liger Entertainment, which is cooperating with the other party, are all unlisted companies. This makes it impossible for them to interfere with the disgusting other party through some kind of hostile acquisition. do it.
Accumulate players little by little, accumulate capital little by little, expand the territory little by little, and finally step on the corpse of their big goose game and become the top game manufacturer in China and even in the world.
This is where the big goose game is unacceptable.
If they can't beat the rising Nebula game, then only slow death awaits them.
Because what Nebula Games wants is not just one acre of land (bibf), but the whole country!
After thinking about it, Yao Xiaoguang made a decision.
"Minecraft" is now gaining momentum, and this game can almost be said to have subverted the gameplay of the game industry, he has to admit one thing.
Even if you copy it, you can't copy it well.
Unless a direct full copy.
But in that case, instead, it would be a braid for the opponent.
Not to mention that Nebula Games today has the ability to fight a lawsuit, and the reputation of Big Goose Games may be even worse.
If it is a small factory, he naturally doesn't care.
How can it be bad?
Dragging can kill you.
But the Nebula game is different. The opponent has enough strength and can fully use this opportunity to strengthen himself.
When the strong bully the weak, why is it that the weak are bullied? Because the other party has no way to resist, and rashly punching in the face of the strong will become his own flaw.
Sitting on the seat and pondering for a long time, Yao Xiaoguang narrowed his eyes and locked his eyes on a game of Nebula Games.
…
‘Big Goose Games will cooperate with AE to jointly develop a first-person shooter masterpiece. ’
"The development was led by the well-known FPS game designer Melesky, and a copyright cooperation was reached in the Hollywood blockbuster "Berlin Battle" to adapt the single-player plot line. ’
'It is reported that the new FPS masterpiece developed by Big Goose and AE Games will be a buyout system without any additional in-app purchase system. ’
'Intense and exciting plot experience, Big Goose Games said it will bring players a cinematic experience that is completely different from "Battlefield". ’
In the conference room of Nebula Games, Qin Yi held the report in his hand and reported to Qin Yi some of the latest developments in the industry.
Rich and powerful!
After listening to Qin Yi's words, a word appeared in everyone's mind.
In cooperation with AE, the super luxurious production team, plus the copyright of the current hottest war blockbuster, was adapted for the plot.
Two words: rich!
As for the reason why the other party did this, even if they didn't say it, everyone knew it, that is, they came to "Battlefield" and their Nebula games.
At present, Nebula Games has two major games that maintain player stickiness.
"Minecraft" and "Battlefield", as for "Fucking Kitchen" and "Jelly Bean Man", even if there are creative workshops, they have already passed their peak period. limited.
The unique gameplay of "Minecraft" and the current hot momentum are obviously hard to chew.
And "Battlefield", which has been online for so long, is obviously targeted by Big Goose Games.
Judging from the opponent's current momentum, it is not difficult to analyze. The opponent also thinks that the battlefield atmosphere of "Battlefield" is difficult to surpass, so there is no article on this at all, but focuses on promoting the 'plot' and 'movie experience'.
This is also the weakness of "Battlefield". Although the unit-style plot can be used, it is difficult to impress players.
For a while, everyone in the conference room was a little silent.
Everyone has to admit one thing, that is, just looking at this wave of offensive, the big goose is indeed a little fierce.
At least the current online players, although there are some who say that the big goose is hard to change after eating shit, but some of them are looking forward to it.
Buyout, no in-app purchase, big IP adaptation, it can be said that the gimmicks are full.
"What is everyone's expression? Don't you think it's a good thing?" Chen Xu looked at everyone's serious look and smiled lightly.
"What does this mean? Big Goose is afraid, why is he afraid? Because he thinks we have become their opponents, and he thinks we can threaten their status."
"Isn't this good news?" Chen Xu crossed his hands and looked at the crowd with his chin up.
"Actually, I'd be happy if Big Goose could really live up to what they said."
"Because this means that domestic game makers have to step out of that comfort zone. They feel a sense of crisis, and they begin to seek changes. Isn't this what we have been working hard and always trying to achieve?" Chen Xu stood up , pressed both hands.
"Only by our Nebula Games family, we can't change the entire industry, but we can be the first to detonate like a bomb! Forcing them to keep up with our pace, now we have achieved the first step, which is the most Good proof." Chen Xu knocked heavily on the conference room table.
Listening to Chen Xu's words, everyone changed their previous seriousness and became excited and excited.
Especially Gabe Newell and Qin Yi, they remembered what Chen Xu had said when he found them.
‘You want to be a garbage game for a lifetime, come and change the game world with me! ’
"As for the big goose game? A company that is afraid of competition cannot climb to the top. If they want to beat us, let them see who will climb the highest mountain!" Chen Xu said confidently.
"And the movie adaptation of the game is not as simple as the big goose game they think." After the chicken blood, Chen Xu then fed everyone an "anxiety pill".
Movies change games, or games change movies, it sounds very reliable.
But there have been many **** examples in previous lives.
There are very few that can be considered a great success. If you really want to count, a "The Walking Dead" can barely rank in the first line, and it is not a complete movie adaptation, but also a comic adaptation.
As for the 007 golden eye, these are too old, and more are just hanging on.
According to the context of the film, how do you expand the film to a dozen hours or more than 20 hours of mainline flow?
All kinds of soldiers that can't be beaten, all kinds of complicated mazes, all kinds of tasks like a grandma wanting to cross the road, will you help me?
If you really want to do this, then players can only give bad reviews mercilessly.
These game designers in their own parallel worlds, unlike him, have not experienced the baptism of the concept of various advanced games in the previous life, plus they are naturally at a disadvantage, Chen Xu is really not optimistic.
"What's more, how can you make your own IP to change the IP?" Chen Xu smiled and said something that made everyone more excited.
"I actually had an idea in my heart before, but because "Battlefield" was in a hot state at the time, it was temporarily placed."
"It's time for a real face-to-face touch with the big goose and the others, and show our sharp claws."
"They want war, then... we'll give them war!"
With Chen Xu's words falling.
On the big screen behind, a new folder and blank planning document appeared.
Then, tapping the keyboard, Chen Xu wrote the code name of the project on it:
Call of Duty, subtitled - Modern Warfare! .
Chapter 104 Declaration of War! Codenamed MW refers to the E3 exhibition!
