Chapter 48 Subject Selection
So back to the beginning – animate or make games?
This time, we can't use other "supernumerary methods" to take shortcuts.
"Make games. Guan Li finally began to make a serious decision, "The funds will be returned quickly." ”
The system says the reason is simply unassailable.
In terms of its own profitability, animation is definitely not as good as the game.
Animation is more of a publicity function, and the little money from selling the broadcast rights and BD is still unknown whether the cost can be recovered.
After all, the majority of the profits of the ACG industry are still on the "periphery" - this is the added value brought by popularity and discussion.
However, if you want to do a good animation, not only is the process complicated, but also the painting and dubbing must not be sloppy in all aspects.
Moreover, once the production is completed, this work can be said to be finalized, and it will be difficult to change it in the later stage.
Flawed is flawed, and it is very easy to have an unavoidable black history.
The game is different, the game can be updated!
Even if it is a full-screen mosaic at the beginning, it can be updated to a movie-level picture quality after a few more rounds.
At that time, will the veteran players who have followed all the way still be able to call the old version of Black History?
It's obviously their lost youth!
So, don't hesitate to make the game first.
The next step is to think about what game to make.
First of all, stand-alone or online games?
Guan Li made the final word: "Online games." ”
The system thought that with his obsession with the Foundation, he would first want to come up with an indie game that deeply aligned with the Foundation's values, "Why?"
"The money comes quickly. "What values are now not as important as actual business value.
Stand-alone games are mostly buyout fee system, so it is naturally impossible to develop various charging points like online games.
Excellent indie games are carefully polished by the producers, with gameplay, plot, music, theme, and intellectual disability......
You'll have to stand out from the crowd of single-player games if you have at least one thing that stands out.
Many single-player games are also very accidental, almost impossible to replicate.
Another important reason is updates.
You can play it without an update, doesn't this make many optimizations and upgrades that may be added in the future unplayable?
Must play online!Mandatory update!Accept the Foundation's baptism!
Guan Li decided to completely embark on the path of commercial games, "What is the most popular type of online game on the market right now?"
The system replied: "Battle Royale, asymmetrical confrontation, multiplayer online battle royale." ”
"Eating chicken, killing chicken, lol, changing the world is still the hottest anchor game. "These genres were also very popular in the last world, and Guan Li can casually name a few games that are more famous in the corresponding genre.
It is said that they are streamer games, precisely because too many game streamers are popular by broadcasting some of them, and they also sow others of them to become popular.
"If it is suitable for live broadcasting, it will be easier to become popular in this big era of the Internet. ”
If the game streamer can play it for a while, it will attract more and more viewers, and the value will naturally rise, and the audience will also be driven to understand the game by the publicity effect brought by the live broadcast - of course, many of them will only be "cloud players" of video games.
When the heat rises, the people who follow the trend will also follow, like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger.
The system doesn't need to think about the analysis behind these things, it can see the development trend of each type from the most intuitive data statistics, "Administrator, should we choose one of these three to do?"
There are already quite a few games of the same type on the market, and although there are not many more, imitating others is completely inconsistent with the Foundation's guidelines......
They need to innovate.
Guan Li fell into memory, "I remember...... The Foundation already has a multiplayer online versus game?"
"Yes, SCP: The Secret Laboratory. The system knows which game he's talking about, "You're going to do this?"
It's not impossible, but ......
There is no copyright issue, as the original Foundation's CC license, aka Creative Commons, shares intellectual property rights in the same way with all works of the SCP series.
So this fangame,In terms of copyright, there is no difference between the entire SCP series:It's all licensed together to the only agent in this world, Guan Li.。
The system can take the game files out of its own archive at any time and upload them to Guan Li's computer, and it is no problem to use them directly.
But it's just a fangame after all.,The production is actually very rough.,It doesn't feel very good to play as a shooter.,There's a bunch of bugs.。
"It's enough to have settings and mechanics. "Guan Li wasn't ready to carry the original game.
For objective reasons, the quality of the game in terms of graphics and models is really worrying, but I can't stand it......
It's really interesting!
The setting of the game has remained unchanged for 10,000 years, and it is an underground Foundation facility where several SCP objects have escaped after a containment breach event.
The roles that players can play in it are mainly divided into five camps:
D-class personnel who escaped from the D-class dormitory in an attempt to escape the facility alive.
A scientist who shares the same illness as the D-class and wants to get out of the facility alive.
SCP containment objects that escaped from their respective "Special Containment Procedures" and entered the facility during a containment breach.
From the outside, they want to hack into Foundation facilities and attempt to help the D-class escape from the Chaos Insurgency for useful information.
and one by one
Mobile Task Force Epsilon-11, codenamed "Nine-Tailed Fox", is also from outside the facility and specializes in handling containment breaches, with a perennial heavy casualty system.
When each player logs into the scene, their identity is random.
You don't know who you're going to become, and you don't know if you're going to meet a supergod or a teammate.
And the most interesting part is the transformation between different characters.
After the D-class escape the facility, if they can join up with the Chaos Insurgency, they will become the new Chaos, and they will be killed again with their teammates.
However, if caught by the Nine-Tailed Fox, it will become a new Nine-Tailed Fox - although there is a greater chance that it will be killed in the facility......
Scientists are the same, after escaping and joining up with the nine-tailed fox, they will become the new nine-tailed fox.
If you merge with the Chaos Insurgency, well, you'll be killed directly, and you'll be resurrected.
Yes, it's a shooter with a resurrection mechanic.
After death, he will be resurrected into which faction, and even he has no control over himself.
- Maybe you will be manually resurrected by SCP-049-Plague Doctor as a zombie on the side of the SCP containment.
After all, according to the setting, 049 is indeed able to turn the corpse it touches into a zombie.
The conditions for victory are slightly complicated, probably so: destroy everything that can be wiped out, and resurrect everything that can be resurrected into your own camp, even if you win.
Guan Li hasn't played the game a few times, mainly because good servers are hard to find, the wild rooms outside are more pitted than one another, the rules of the game are not understood, the Foundation's common sense is not known, and there are not a few teammates who get lost while walking.
So he was very happy to watch other people's live broadcasts and play black, and be a happy cloud player.
"So what are we going to do now to build on this game and upgrade it all?" The system ignores the pile of memories and gets straight to the point.
Guan Li shook his head, "Only the faction mechanism, the resurrection mechanism, the permission mechanism, and the chat mechanism will be retained, and all the others will be remade." ”
