Chapter 482: Isn't it an American-style RPG?
"Isn't that obvious?"
Hear Mark. After Saini's answer, Jester just said so lightly.
And at this time, Mark. Seni also understood what Jester meant.
That's right, whether a game can sell or not depends not on whether the game conforms to a certain unspoken rule to make zuò, but whether the game is good or not - of course, a certain amount of publicity is necessary, and this is how Sony will succeed in the future.
A game of a certain quality, as well as a wide range of publicity, equals a game with high sales.
The game "Runest's Guardian" bears Jester's name and needs no publicity at all to be known, and the quality of this game, Mark. Saini also said that two words "fun" can interpret a qiē.
In such a situation, Jester has nothing to worry about at all.
"And ......"
Jester's eyes flickered, and there was an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth: "To be honest, it stands to reason that GDC's Lifetime Achievement Award, Richard. Garrett did qualify, but it couldn't be the first few editions, and he had to ask the real forerunners who pioneered video games to have finished their awards. ”
Mark. Seni also nodded involuntarily, he thought for a while, this is indeed the case.
With that, Jester stood up.
"And there's one more thing I want to make public."
Saying that, Jester paused: "Mark, you help me contact the reporter of "Game", I want them to give me an interview, the content of the interview, that is, I plan to postpone the plan for the new RTS game in the second half of this year, and I decided to make a real American RPG game." ”
Hear Jester say that. Mark. Saini was a little surprised, not that he doubted that Jester would be able to make a good American RPG, because he had admired Jester's talent for games since he met him, and basically, in terms of games, in his cognition, Jester was not like this when he was casually provoked by others.
"How could you ......"
"Huh."
Jester chuckled again as he looked at Mark. Saini. Then he continued, "You mean, why would I suddenly want to make an American-style RPG, right?" You can think of it as a riposte for me, a riposte for provocation, Richard. Didn't Garrett say I wouldn't be able to make an American RPG? So, I'll make one for him. ”
Having been with Jester for many years, Mark has become very familiar with him. Saini knew that Jester would never change something that had already been decided.
Therefore, he never tried to persuade Jester to change his opinion.
Mark. Seni only hesitated slightly. Then he nodded: "I'll go later, but American RPGs are not so easy to make, and I see that you rarely play board games with DND...... I'm just curious, are you really sure to make a great game like this? ”
Jester dared to say it. Then naturally you are confident.
However, some things are just his own secrets, and they can't be shared casually, so he just replied in a very affirmative tone: "Don't worry." I know what I'm going to do, isn't it an American RPG? In my eyes, they're not fundamentally different from other games. ”
Soon the reporter of "Game" magazine came to the headquarters of Mars Entertainment. A very short interview was given to Jester.
Jester's interview opportunity is difficult to get, but basically every time he gets it, it means that Jester wants to say a piece of news that is enough to detonate the entire game industry.
Another issue of "Game" is released.
Jester scolded Richard. Garrett: Your games are also called American RPGs? ”
In the morning, Smith, who had just hurriedly bought a hot dog at a roadside stall, took three mouthfuls and filled it into his mouth, and then hurried to catch the subway, suddenly stopped, took a few steps back in some astonishment, and then returned to the side of a newsstand he had just skimmed.
In the most prominent part of this newsstand was a magazine that he often bought from time to time.
《game》。
As a coder working in Silicon Valley, he is also a long-time game enthusiast, and he has been addicted to RPG games from the time he used cards as a storage medium, until Richard. Garrett's Genesis came out of nowhere, and for a die-hard fan of American RPGs like Jesus, Jesus meant to Christianity.
He looked at the title on the game.
Suddenly, his face became extremely ugly. Garrett was his idol, and when he was a child, he dreamed of being like Richard. Garrett's Genesis.
"Jester is too hungry and ignorant, he dares to look down on Richard like this. Garrett. ”
Smith stepped forward, took the copy of your game that was placed in the most prominent position, and quickly flipped to the page of the title on the cover, which was an interview with Jester.
Because there has been Richard before. Garrett mocked Jester's new game, Rune Guardians, for not being called an RPG, and on a new type of online forum, Richard Brown. Garrett fans talk to Jester. Lee's fans also had a big fight.
Therefore, during this period of time, the news about this is relatively hot.
Originally, it had been a little quiet for a while, and basically people who were still paying attention to these things were waiting for "Runestone Guardian" and Richard. Garrett's Genesis 4 sales final contest.
However, Jester would suddenly accept such an interview.
His attitude was clearly stated.
You Richard. Isn't Garrett looking down on my game? Well, I also think those games you make zuò are a piece of.
Smith was furious and read the magazine he was holding, but it was clear that his behavior of wanting to read it without taking money had already provoked the old readers of the newsstand.
The strong newspaper owner stretched out a thick palm, pressed it on the page of the magazine that Smith was reading, and then said very politely, "If you don't buy it, you can't read it." This made Smith a little dissatisfied, after all, he would buy a copy of "Game" here every once in a while.
He's not a fan of console games, and although Game magazine is mainly about console games, it's a comprehensive game magazine, and there's a lot of PC game content in each issue, and most importantly, it's often accompanied by demo game floppy disks.
Therefore, he also knows Jester very well, after all, Jester's "Quake" and "Age of Empires" are so famous, and the highest-selling single-game game on PC games at present, to be honest, he has also played both games, and they are indeed very good games.
But at the end of the day, Smith is also an RPG enthusiast, and his love for RPGs is unmatched by any other genre.
In his mind, Richard. Garrett is the authority of American RPG games, since he said that "Rune Guardian" is not worthy of being called an RPG game, then this game is definitely not worthy of being called an RPG, besides, Jester has made Zuò games for so many years, except for a few Japanese RPGs that he has made on the console that are extremely boring and have no depth and plot.
"A Japanese-style RPG is also qualified to be called an RPG?"
In the bottom of his heart, Smith pursed his lips disdainfully, and when he saw the palm that wanted to withdraw the "game" in his hand, he also said a little unhappily: "Isn't it just a magazine?" As he spoke, he took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to the owner of the newsstand.
After seeing the dollar, the owner of the newsstand naturally smiled.
While looking for change for Smith, he said, "This is my last "game" here, and this issue is selling very well. ”
Smith took the lead and waved his hand impatiently.
While looking at the article I hadn't finished reading, I walked towards the entrance of the subway.
In this interview, Jester talks about Richard. Garrett's sarcasm is almost overflowing, and even in the eyes of traditional American RPG players like Smith, Jester doesn't seem to be solemn enough for the theme of American RPG.
"Isn't it an American RPG?" In the interview, Jester faced the reporter and said this.
"How could he say such a thing!"
The more he looked at it, the more angry he became, Smith closed the game directly, but after thinking again, he hadn't finished reading it yet, so he opened the magazine again and continued to read on.
"Since Richard. . . Mr. Garrett said that I don't know what an American RPG is, so I plan to postpone the development of this year's RTS game in the near future, probably after I have been busy with a recent personal matter, and first make a project for an American RPG game, and then make both games at the same time. ”
"Of course, the American RPG game I want to make, that is, the DND game, is naturally very different from those you have seen and played or heard, which is also my consistent style of making games, I will never do what others have done, even if others have done it, I have to make something different, this is my style all along."
After reading this paragraph, Smith took a sip directly. (To be continued......) R1292
