Chapter Eighty-Three: "Game of Destiny" [Asking for Recommendation Votes!First Update]
The department that produces games in Wanhu is still making games, and the field that produces the "Tetris" handheld is still producing the "Tetris" handheld.
However, it was only in China that a production area dedicated to the production of cards was set up, and although the Wanhu Science and Technology Park has been constantly breaking ground, the production area for the production of cards has also been built before. However, it takes a little bit to introduce and transform the production line, debug the production line, and adapt to the supply chain. Although I worked overtime, I couldn't rush it.
And in the factory that is OEM for 10,000 households in the local area, it is much easier to put 10,000 new cards into production. As a long-established poker printer, they had never had the experience of making special cards like this before. However, in just one month, it was already possible to produce decent cards.
The cards made by this factory spit out from the production line one after another. Then the cutting process begins. Then, five more pieces are packed into the cassette.
Of course, not all cards are produced in equal quantities during the crafting process. In addition to the ten players who have been recruited to make cards, there are 1,000 special cards produced.
In the first batch of all 100 cards, each card has a certain number of "Silver Cards".
When it is said to be a gold card, the surface of the card is covered with a colloidal coating containing shiny and shiny chips. While the whole card is thicker and more textured, it will also reflect a piece of silver when the sun shines. It's sparkling, it's not dazzling.
Of course...... The card planning department also has plans to produce "gold cards". However, there is no rush yet. The essence of trading cards is to keep new cards coming out and keep the rules alive.
Now only the "Silver Card" is enough, and if there is an additional level of "Gold Card", the rarity of the cards of both levels will be reduced.
This set of game cards, after a long discussion within Wanhu, was finally named "Destiny Game".
The reason why it is called this name is because this name contains my desire for secondary and secondary things, and second, the name looks handsome enough.
If you ask what the name means? I'm sorry, but the name doesn't have any connotation.
"Game of Destiny" has a total of two sets of rules at this stage, one is a simplified version, which is the mode in which Takahashi once promised six cards to fight.
The rules are basically the same as those of the full version, but the difference between the two is that one requires fifty cards in the card pool, while one requires only six cards.
The two ways of playing have been tested, and there is also a big difference in the amount of time they can play.
When the simplified version of the gameplay is not proficient, including reading card attributes and so on, it takes about ten minutes to play. And if you are familiar with the setting of all the cards, it is basically a quick game of two minutes.
And when playing in the simplified version, there are no requirements for the placement of cards. Ideal for entertaining when space is constrained and time is of the essence.
Whether it's squeezing the subway or squeezing the restaurant, as long as you can put down the cards in your hand, you can play the simplified version of the game.
Of course, this was all a bonus, once Games of Destiny was designed. The so-called simplified version of the gameplay is actually just a tutorial for beginners in Destiny Games.
It is used to promote the game in the early stage, when all players are not familiar with the rules of the game, and it is used to familiarize themselves with the rules of the game, and there are not enough cards and mobile phones.
After all, if you get started, you just use the full version of the rules. If you count the time spent reading the instructions on each card, you can't say that the game will last more than an hour.
People have a limited amount of time to concentrate, and if the learning curve is too steep, the learning curve is too boring. This kind of entertainment will be eliminated almost immediately.
Although Manho is now almost a mortal enemy with Nintendo, Takahashi agrees with Nintendo's philosophy of making games. It must be easy to use, and in addition to being simple to learn, you can continue to pursue the so-called depth of the game and give players room to advance.
The abbreviated rules of "Game of Destiny" are the product of this thinking.
Although Takahashi established the ground rules, he was hardly involved in the design. However, he didn't completely ignore Game of Destiny.
Although there are many painters in Wanhu now, except for a few original painters, the rest are dot matrix painters. Although normal paintings can be painted, it inevitably brings a lot of dots.
Although the dot matrix method has some benefits for card printing, when the printing accuracy is not enough, you can use the dot matrix to fool the level.
However, after several rounds of assessment, there are not too many artists who can adapt to the theme of "Game of Destiny".
So, Takahashi presided over a social recruitment.
Because the manga industry is now extremely prosperous and developed, and the manga industry is now adopting the studio system pioneered by Osamu Tezuka.
A young man wants to enter the industry, basically except for the direct submission of the difficulty comparable to the old emperor's university, to participate in the newcomer award. It is to go to the manga artist who has already serialized the manga as an assistant, hone his skills a little bit, expand his network, and maybe one day the manga submission will be selected by the editor, or get a good score in the reader's vote.
However, even this success rate has become higher. That's just an increase from one percent to five percent. There are so many magazines, and there are so many places that can be serialized. And the number of people working in the industry is increasing, and countless generations who have grown up reading comics have poured into the industry with their love for comics.
In the context of the sudden increase in talent in this industry, salaries have of course fallen again and again, and in Tokyo and this city where prices are rising every day, if you want to survive, you have just enough food and clothing.
Dreams are dreams after all, and they can't be eaten.
Artists who switched careers to the game industry earlier were all paid okay, but the number of artists needed for video games was not much. It doesn't solve the problem of too much talent in the comics industry.
Therefore, when Wanhu announced the recruitment of painters. In just one week, more than 1,000 artists signed up.
For this purpose, Wanhu also specially rented a spacious site as a need for assessment.
The artist who came to apply for the job drew a few pictures according to the requirements, and after some simple interviews, he decided who to hire and who to give up.
Although Takahashi is the president of Manho, he is not an expert in the field of painting.
Therefore, although he is also on the judging stage, he generally does not speak.
A young artist who has come to Tokyo from all over the world has a dream in his heart.
However, how many people can really realize their dreams?
