Annan Lee continued to play the game.

After playing for hours in one breath, after the initial emotion has passed, he can strip away his feelings and examine the game from a more objective perspective.

From today's point of view, if you want to pick the thorn in this game, you can find a lot of problems.

For example, the game lacks a deep story.

For example, the game's combat system, although distinctive, is too repetitive, and it is easy to feel boring.

For example, the values of the game are set very unreasonably.

There is also a lot of content in the game, but in fact, the degree of freedom is very low. There are a lot of items designed, but only a few are useful. There are also a lot of skills, and there are still only a few that can be used.

If players don't check the strategy, hit gems and practice skills according to their own preferences, there is a chance that the character will be abolished.

On the other hand, the popular ARPG games in recent years have a very high degree of freedom. Players are often allowed to customize their characters at the beginning of the game, and after selecting a character, they can also choose different development paths. Even if the player chooses randomly according to their preferences, they can become stronger. That's the essence of role-playing games.

I have to admit that even if "Sword" has been remade, the core is still a youthful work from sixteen years ago.

So realistically speaking, the gameplay of the remake of "Sword" cannot be compared with "Diablo 3" and "Divinity: Original Sin", which are high-reputation and high-sales ARPG games in Europe and the United States.

For the vast majority of players, the fun of the Remake of Sword is likely to last for about ten hours at most.

This is an indisputable fact. There are so many choices and too many to see today!

But so what? As the saying goes, he is strong, he is strong, and I grass my sheep. Whether the game is good or not, how can there be a cookie-cutter standard?

The people who made the original version of Sword were a group of young people with no experience in game making. What sustains them in turning the game from idea to reality is the blood in their chests!

The game may not be perfect, but it's definitely a true one!

When the Future Game Builder remakes the game, it not only improves the quality, but also amplifies the sincerity of the game.

Those scenic maps, those ethereal and agile martial arts moves, these are all designed by Liu Kun and them more than ten years ago, painstakingly and stroke by stroke. This is the spirit of "Sword"!

Even if other games have a better story, better upgrades, and a better equipment system. But the remake of "Sword", which has its own sparkle, is still a work worth supporting!

"Almost. Li Annan thought in his heart, exited the preview, and finally adjusted a few more details.

First, I fine-tuned a few stats for the viewing angle to make the game look more natural.

Then add languages to make the game available in Chinese, English, French, German, Russian, Japanese and other languages. Anyway, it's a matter of ordering a few options. The built-in languages are abundant, and when they are put on the shelves, maybe there are foreign players who have their own languages, so buy them and try them?

After doing this, he chose the envelope output and completed the remake.

Annan Lee estimates that this game is unlikely to be a big hit, but the people who bought it must have.

Whether you're a kid who played this game, relive your childhood memories. I am still a player who has not played it before, but I want to experience a high-quality Chinese-style martial arts ARPG stand-alone game. I think they'll all pay for it.

After being on steam, no matter what, it should be able to sell 100,000 copies.

Selling 100,000 copies, the money he can get is actually not too much, but after this battle, his name will officially enter the eyes of the world.

He's already figured it out. When "Sword" hit the shelves, he registered the company and went to get the copyright of various old games. Start by remaking old games and enter the game market.

In addition, he has to recruit some competent employees. With the manpower, the next time he remakes an old game, he will have the ability to do more to cater to the times.

When the time comes, he first imagines new content to be added, and the employees hand it over to him when they are ready. He then imported it into the future game builder. While being more efficient, no one will find out the secrets.

……

That same evening. Li Annan took a four-and-a-half-hour train ride to the capital.

He got off at Capital South Station. Liu Kun was already waiting there.

The two had been chatting for a long time before, but it was the first time they had met. Li Annan looked at the other party carefully, I don't know if it was an illusion, Liu Kun looked a little haggard.

Liu Kun is only in his early forties, but his face is frighteningly old, he has no energy, and his hair is mostly white. This look, said to be a fifty or sixty-year-old person, Li Annan will believe it.

Li Annan didn't think much about it and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm Li Annan." Sword Seal is a game that I loved playing when I was a kid, and it's an honor to be able to remake it myself. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so young, there are talented people in the country! I played your redo of "Mount and Blade", and the quality is very high. I can't help but admire your skills. If it is done by our pixel software, it may not be able to achieve that effect in two or three years. Liu Kun said.

Li Annan scratched his head, not wanting to take credit, and couldn't reveal the news of future software, so he changed the topic and said: "I have already made a version." Would you like to take a look now?"

As he spoke, Li Annan patted the computer bag in his hand. The unencrypted Remake of Sword is inside.

"Nope. I still have something to do with my company. When I arrange for you to stay, you have to go back quickly. This is the contract, I have already signed it, you have time to look at it, and there is no problem to sign it. Sign it and give me the second one. Liu Kun said, took out a file bag, and handed it to Li Annan in the square of the Capital South Railway Station.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Annan couldn't help but wonder. He knew that he was quite like a fraud, but now the other party is doing this, which is more like a fraud.

Liu Kun smiled wryly. From the moment he decided to betray the agreement and authorize it privately, Liu Kun knew that he would definitely not be able to stay in the company. So seize the time, sort out your previous work records, and prepare for the handover. When it's time to tear your face, you can leave as soon as possible to reduce embarrassment.

Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Li Annan knew that there was something estimated inside, so he didn't ask again. He said, "Let's sit down in a café and I'll show you how the remake goes." ”

Even if Liu Kun was alive and Zhiduoxing descended to earth, he would never have imagined that Annan Lee had already made a remake of "Sword". So although Annan Lee repeatedly said "remake", Liu Kun only had concept drawings and the like at that time, and did not take it to heart.

Liu Kun said: "In this way, you come to my company at eight o'clock tomorrow and let everyone have a look." The address is this. ”

As he spoke, Liu Kun handed Li Annan a business card, and then said, "I'll go find you a place to stay." Is it okay to have a four-star one?"

Li Annan said: "Don't bother. If you have something to do, go ahead and get busy. I just wandered around and found a place to live on my own. I'll come to your company tomorrow at eight o'clock and give you a demonstration. ”

"This ......" Liu Kun hesitated. Although he does have a lot of things to do now, isn't it too embarrassing to leave the guests who come from afar aside?

"It's all technical men, so there's no need to engage in those socials. I happened to look at the night view of the capital. "Li Annan Road.

"Then I'm sorry for you today, when I'm free, if I still have a chance, I'll make up for it!" Liu Kun finished speaking and left in a hurry.

Li Annan wandered alone for a long time and went to see several famous locations. And then...... I found a small hotel to stay in.

Even if he has a small amount of hundreds of thousands in his pocket, he still doesn't feel that he is rich, and his concept of consumption has not been reversed.

Where is not to live? Live in a luxury suite, spend tens of thousands of yuan, and live alone for one night. There are less than 200 small hotels on the street, and it is still a one-night stay. It's all sad, no difference.

He was lucky, he found a small hotel, and it felt very cozy. The front desk is the proprietress who looks very kind, listening to Li Annan's accent is from out of town, and also introduced him to many delicious restaurants nearby.

Li Annan got the door key and said, "Auntie, you call me at six o'clock tomorrow, I have something." ”

"Okay, no problem. The proprietress agreed.

……

The other side. After Liu Kun sorted out his work records and was ready to quit the company, he called Zhao Shan.

"Lao Zhao, I did something to be sorry for you. Liu Kun sat in his office, the pale light hitting his face, making him look as if he was twenty years older: "I have already given the authorization to redo "Sword". ”

"What?" The sound of a broken cup directly rang on the other end of the phone, and then Zhao Shan gritted his teeth and said: "Liu Kun! I called your brother for almost twenty years, and you did this to your brother?"

"I really can't do it any other way. For fifteen years, I've been making online games and mobile games that I don't like, why? I hope that one day, I can wait until "Sword" comes back to life! We can continue to make a sequel to "Sword"!" Liu Kun said.

Liu Kun said: "Now there is such a good team that is willing to remake the game for us! They promised me that they will remake it exactly according to the original game! They will not change the plot, let alone the setting! We don't have to pay anything, why don't we authorize it? When the remake is made, we have sales, and we have a player base, we can make a sequel!"

Zhao Shan was furious to the extreme: "You are already crazy! Not to mention whether you can make it, even if you do, it is impossible to sell! "Sword" was a fool's dream back then! A game that failed in 2001 was transferred to 2017 as it was...... No, it's 2018 soon, how can you succeed? Are you going to ruin all of us for that illusory dream!"
