Chapter 84: The Sandbox Game "Don't Starve"

Xingyuan Group.

Zhou Han sat on the sofa with an uncertain expression, and a person also sat next to him.

"All the staff of Xingyu Games are maintaining and upgrading "Night Watchman", and the manpower is very sufficient. ”

"Starlight Entertainment is filming the third season of "Wang Dalong's Reversal of Life", and the first two seasons have brought us tens of millions of profits. ”

"Xingyuan Capital is still the same, and it is also investing steadily, and they dare not move without Mr. Zhou's order. ”

"Now it's in a state of not losing money and making a little profit, which is already very good. ”

"Mr. Zhou, the various departments of the group, this is the situation for the time being. ”

After listening, Zhou Han smiled with relief, it seemed to be not bad.

Even if there is no program to provide funds, you can still continue to make money, and you will not return to the pre-liberation period in one day.

"Assistant Yu, I'm so relieved to have you in the group!" Zhou Han sighed sincerely.

That's right, if there is no Yu Yaoting, just rely on yourself.

How is it possible to maintain a group?

He was just an ordinary person before, and he had a few years of experience at most.

It's really too difficult to ask him to manage a group without any experience.

"Mr. Zhou said with a smile, I see your ability in my eyes, no worse than anything. ”

Yu Yaoting smiled rarely, and said so when he opened his mouth.

Next, Zhou Han learned some more things, and then asked Yu Yaoting to go back to work.

He was alone in the entire office, and he was lost in thought with a cup of brewed coffee.

At the moment, the first thing to think about is to complete the new tasks of the program, and there is no harm in that.

But Zhou Han was stumped, although he knew some future directions.

But I'm not sure, and it's hard to guarantee that it won't change.

It's really not easy to make a game that generates 10 times the profit.

It's okay to lose money before, just do it casually, you don't need to think about anything else, there is a high probability that you will complete the goal.

During this time, he had been learning about the game market, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

It made him a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Han found a way to go to the road of 3D, and it had to be a stand-alone machine.

The essence of online games is social, and the gameplay still depends on stand-alone games.

Foreign countries have done very well in this regard.

Why don't manufacturers want to make money abroad, but desperately do cheating games to pit domestic players.

It's because it's not fun, it can't be sold to others, and the cost is also large, and the income is unstable.

The next game audience selection includes both domestic and foreign audiences, so that you can make more money.

came to Zhou Han's headache again, what kind of game did he do?

First of all, the martial arts fairy has to be excluded, foreigners don't know what to urge, once they enter the rivers and lakes, the years are urging, and this translation alone has to grind people to death.

As a patient with difficulty in choosing, Zhou Han couldn't come up with a good idea after thinking about it.

At this time, Ding Mengyu walked in.

"Mr. Zhou, other companies have donated money about the Wenyang earthquake, should we donate some too?"

In addition to being the front desk, Ding Mengyu is also responsible for external public relations.

It's just nothing to make a statement or something, but in fact, the specific content is still up to Zhou Han.

After writing a good manuscript, he has to look at it, to put it bluntly, Ding Mengyu is a tool man.

"What do you mean by donating money to an earthquake?"

Zhou Han didn't read much news about this, the blue world was completely different from the names of various places in his previous life.

I don't know where Wenyang is, the first time I watched the news, he thought it was abroad.

"Wasn't there an earthquake in that place in Wenyang some time ago?"

"Because it was in the mountains, the roads on the side were completely collapsed, so we had to rely on a helicopter to bring a little food and water. ”

"But it's not enough at all, there are too many people over there, and it was reported a few days ago, it's like a famine. ”

"Other companies have donated a little bit, do you think we should ......?"

Ding Mengyu cherishes this job very much, and she feels the need to remind her.

Other companies have donated, and if they don't donate, they will be exposed by unscrupulous media at that time, and I am afraid it will not end well.

"Wait a minute, what did you say?"

Ding Mengyu was stunned for a moment, when did the boss have a problem with the back of his ears.

"I just said that other companies have donated, should they follow. ”

"No, the previous sentence. ”

Ding Mengyu thought for a while, "The last sentence...... It's like famine?"

"Yes, hahaha, there is, there will be famine!"

Zhou Han stood up excitedly and slapped the table vigorously.

Ding Mengyu felt that this boss was a little abnormal, and he was so happy to see others famine.

Shut up, so as not to annoy this abnormal boss.

When Ding Mengyu was about to go out, Zhou Han opened his mouth and said a word.

"Well, I'll inform the finance about the donation, and you're a good reminder of this, so keep up the good work. ”

Ding Mengyu walked out of the office in a trance, his heart full of doubts.

Mr. Zhou's personality is really incomprehensible!

...

Don't Starve is a sandbox adventure survival game.

However, in Zhou Han's opinion, it is not a sandbox game.

A lot of people confuse sandbox games with open-world games.

There are only two features of the sandbox game, freedom and creativity.

Don't Starve is created, all the props are pre-designed by the developers.

The whole game process is to collect resources, synthesize props, and then fight monsters.

Regain resources, reciprocate, and there is no creative element.

As for freedom, it can only be said that it is barely complied with.

However, when it comes to freedom and creativity, we have to mention a game.

Azure ONLINE.

It's the largest first-person role-playing game in the Teal world, with up to seven billion players online at the same time.

Custom quests, expansions, DLC.

Expansions like Renaissance, Industrial Revolution, World Wars, etc., are all played by the players themselves.

Even the props can be mixed and matched at will, and you never know what props will be born in the next expansion.

Every three hundred and sixty-five days, that is, a year, the game level can be increased by one level.

If the level is too high, the account will be banned by the system.

Generations of leaders and tycoon players have struggled to find bugs in this area.

Or it is possible to resist the program's plugins, but none of them succeed.

The pin number is also very convenient, and you don't even need to apply.

And the map is so wide, so to speak.

A galaxy battle like that, which claims to have 18 billion planets, is not worth mentioning at all in front of it.

Ten years after the game's release, players didn't break out of the blue world.

The player's initial difficulty also depends on Destiny.

According to Liu Zimu, he played a hellish difficulty.

Don't Starve's game objective is also very simple.

It's about letting players collect resources and then use all the resources around them to survive as much as possible.

It is a 45-degree perspective game.

All the materials in it are 2D cartoon characters, a standard low-budget game.

It looks like it's a 2D game, and it's a sticker from any direction.

But it's a 3D game.

In such a style rendered by billboards, all the object models are a single flat style patch.

So it looks like a 2D feeling.

To put it simply, it is to make a 2D effect in 3D.

The stronger proof of this is that the game has a first-person mod.

You know, if it's 2D first-person, it looks like it's just a line.

However, there is a drawback, although it is made in 3D, but in the final analysis, it is still a 2D picture.

Anyone who plays the game knows that 2D is usually not as expressive as 3D.

Since Zhou Han has chosen this game, if he wants to achieve greater success, he naturally needs to change it.
