When there is something to do, it is difficult to feel the passage of time.

Because there's something to do all the time.

In addition to being in charge of the production of Monster Hunter, Jester is also building the entire world of Azeroth from scratch, including the map, including the different terrain features of each area, the monsters it has, the characters, and so on.

After all, Jester couldn't have remembered all of WOW's content clearly, despite all the versions of Erudito missions he had done.

Of course, this kind of huge amount of work is not done by him alone, the Martian Children team had a group dedicated to improving the plot and structure of the world of Azeroth, and there are not many people, but there are still a lot of people who are interested in this matter, after Jester decided to do so, this group began to expand continuously, and some members of the Martian Children team who have not had a mission recently are happy to be disabled.

Building an entire world from scratch still sounds cool.

This kind of creator-like thing is most desirable for those who often call themselves artists.

However, although Jester did not keep this matter a secret, few people can guess the reason why Jester did this, but in general, he still guessed a little, either to prepare to start a production prologue comparable to the original masterpiece of "Heroes", but it is a bit impossible to say this, because Jester has already said before, in a short period of time, the short time here Jester also specially explained, referring to the fact that within this console generation, it is impossible for him to carry out such a big project.

As for whether the next console generation is there.

Although Jester didn't say it explicitly, he still very vaguely explained that almost all of his ideas about 3D games have been completed in "Heroes".

Although inside this game. For some technical reasons, some things or the system are not so perfect, but what he wants to express in this game has actually been fully expressed.

And Jester said that every time he makes a game, it is actually an attempt. An attempt that he had never attempted before, if he had done something like this before, then he would not have done it again, because in Jester's understanding, making games is like painting, it needs inspiration, it needs passion, and without these things, it will not be possible to make a good work.

And do what has already been done. Of course, it can't be called anything inspiration and passion.

It's just like the logging after the end of WOW's reclamation.,Use the same lineup to play the tactics that have been practiced.,The whole boss mechanism and skill chain can be memorized.,This kind of fight is not really passionate.,In addition to the surprise of seeing the long-awaited equipment finally come out at the moment of opening the package.,The whole process,In fact, it's not any passion.。

It's the same thing with game development.

In this case, many people immediately dismissed the conjecture of Jester's new super plan and moved on to other places. Take movies, for example.

Although Mars Entertainment has a film production company, and their game adaptations are not bad. But it's just good, you can make some money, but you can't make too much money.

Therefore, some people speculate that plus the previous importance that Jester attached to the plot of Warcraft.

A lot of speculation is being made, is it Jester who wants to create a movie with a fantasy setting? But can such a film really succeed? Although there is a lot of development in movie special effects nowadays, is it really possible to make such a movie? It is said that Peter. The Jackson brothers are planning to raise money to shoot Danyang for the Lord of the Rings series. And there are indeed film companies interested.

But that's because The Lord of the Rings has a huge fan base and a huge fan base who are desperate to see the movie.

But what does Warcraft have?

Although there are many fans of the Warcraft series, the sales of each generation of this RTS game are only five or six million copies, which is really good. But that's all, such fans can't afford a special effects movie that will definitely invest a lot.

A lot of people think Jester can't be so stupid.

But I can't say for sure.

Because Jester himself likes to do unexpected things, for example, he can contribute two-thirds of his own money, up to 200 million US dollars, for the game ideas in his mind.

No one can say that he will invest in making a movie he wants by himself.

Judging from his attention and investment in the story system of Warcraft since a few years ago, even if he really invests tens of billions of dollars to make a movie, it is not a big deal, but there is a problem that the reason why Jester himself took out 200 million dollars to make "Heroes" is because he knows that he will not make more money.

But he knew that although he wouldn't make much, at least he wouldn't lose money.

Although it has been on sale for more than half a year now, the game has actually paid off, and in the life cycle of Dreambox 3 for at least five years, the profit range of this game is still predictably not too small, but movies and games are not the same thing.

In particular, the difference between making games and making movies is much bigger than the difference between being a man and being a woman.

However, this is just a speculation for the outside world, and for Mars Entertainment, this is also a top-secret news, and no one except Jester himself knows why such a department was established.

Ever since he liked interacting with players on the community forum, Jester would go back to watch it from time to time, and if he came across something he was interested in, or a topic that players were arguing about, he would also look at it carefully, and sometimes he would explain it to players if he felt that there was something to be said.

On one occasion, while answering a player's question about the range of attacks between the various weapons, he was grabbed and asked about the structure map creatures that he had organized in a special department to improve the world of Azeroth.

Jester didn't hide it.

His answer was also rather ambiguous: "There is indeed such a department, and I did not keep this information secret, in fact, there is no special point in doing so." It's just that when I was thinking about Warcraft 3, I suddenly realized that we hadn't made a complete map of the whole world yet, although we had so many battle maps. ”

"But I suddenly thought it would be really cool to make a real world map and mark the places where those battle maps are on that battle map."

"So. I discussed it with those people in the Children of Mars, but I didn't expect to hit it off, and it happened that because of the "Warcraft 3" thing, there were a few people in our Children of Mars who were working on the setting, so the work began, of course, things were relatively busy, and I almost slept very little every day, as if I was back to the days when I first created Mars Entertainment. ”

"When I work during the day, I spend time in the Monster Hunter development team. Deal with all the challenges encountered during the development of this game. ”

"At the end of the day's work, if the "Monster Hunter" project team's daily plan is not completed, and it needs to work overtime, then I will also work overtime, and then I will also have to review the runes completed by the architecture team of the world of Azeroth today that do not meet the outline I made, whether it is better or better, basically the mountain has done this, and the finished day has reached the early morning of the next day. I basically only have a few hours to sleep. ”

"To be honest, if it weren't for the weekend. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you guys here, but I'm going to work in a moment, so I don't have much time to stay here. ”

Jester's complaint-like answer was also sympathetic to many people.

Some people even said it half-jokingly.

"Now I finally know that the top 20 super-rich people on Computational Forbes work just as hard as we do!"

The result was quickly ridiculed.

"But Jester is done with work, and when you go to your own private island to enjoy life, you can only be with your own hands!"

This taunt can be described as spicy.

directly made the previous poster angry, if it weren't for the moderators who gave each of them fifty boards in a timely manner, and banned for three days. Otherwise, a super pair of spraying stickers may erupt.

But soon someone asked, "Is it really not because you have to have a big, big plan or are you really going to make a movie for the Warcraft series?" If you really make a movie, it's amazing, I love the plot of Warcraft very much! I love Anduin so much. Lothar! ”

This inquirer should be a fan of the Warcraft series.

However, Jester's very ruthless rejection of his conjecture, "Well, although the real answer may make you sad, but it is." This time it was really a whim on my part, and those people in the Children of Mars are also some new lovers who do things according to their moods like me, so that's how we hit it off, and I'm afraid there's one thing you don't know. ”

"That is, this Azeroth World Council composed of Martian children is only a temporary organization, and many members of the Martian children are interested in this project, and they all have their own jobs now, which is why they are willing to put their work on hold for the time being, so they will work day and night in this committee - I estimate that the work of this committee will be explained in a few months at most."

"The rest of the tinkering will only take a few people."

"And what kind of game am I going to make in such a large world of Azeroth, with all due respect, that you're talking about? It's simply impossible, machines today wouldn't be allowed to make games like this, have you forgotten that you've had a very torturous reading time in Heroes? ”

"This is the biggest bad review we've received about 'Heroes' lately."

"There was a die-hard of ours before, who said this about the letter from "Heroes", which is almost the most perfect game in his mind, saying that we did everything he wanted to see in this game, but why does this read bar take so long - I have to wait more than a minute to read it when I enter a house, and even more so when I change a map, it takes more than three minutes to read it!"

"In fact, many people have responded to this problem, but we can't help it, the current game is like this, the function is not enough, if you want to show so many scenes, it is impossible not to use this way, we also want to make seamless maps, but we can't do it."

"Some people will wonder why I say that, because like the world of Azeroth that we envisioned, it is very big, much bigger than what you see in "Heroes", and I don't want to do this kind of setting again to enter a house and need to read a bar, if I really want to make an RPG game about the story of Azeroth, it is just possible, maybe when the map can be seamlessly connected without the need for a reading bar."

"At the moment, it's going to be very difficult in five years."

"As for the question of movies, to be honest, I really thought about it, but then I thought about it, this is a little too unreliable, although I like it very much, but I know that now is not the time, far from the time, maybe in the future I will not make games, I will try to show some of the games I want in the way of movies, but I am afraid that people will say that I am hyping up feelings - maybe many people will say at that time, watching Jester can't make games and will only sell feelings!"

After reading Jester's humorous answer, many people laughed.

"Don't you have any other ideas than Monster Hunter right now? Or are you going to take a good break after Monster Hunter is done, I know you haven't had a break in a long time! ”

This should be a fan of Jester's physical relationship.

For such fans, Jester is also willing to answer a little more.

"I have a piece of news here that I've never said to the public, I just thought about it, I can tell you about it here, but you have to keep it secret from me - I do have a game idea after Monster Hunter is done, not about Azeroth, although I also think it would be interesting to make a game that has a lot to do with Azeroth, such as an RPG, but it's not the time yet."

"I'm talking about this new game, it's going to be a very special game, it's going to be a brand new game that you've never seen or played."

"There's only so much I can say about the game."

"As for what it is, you'll understand when it comes out - you don't even need me to explain, you just have to look at it and you'll know what I'm talking about." (To be continued......)
