Therefore, this year, the major media have summed up again, and they are ready to come up with a killer feature.

That's the awards live!

However, this plan is still under internal discussion, as the owner of "GAME", Jester naturally knows this clearly, but although it has not been decided yet, the internal discussion is still very hot, for VGA with TV media participation, live broadcast is not difficult for them, so, all the participants in the discussion are very in favor of this new plan.

Jester also thought it was a good idea.

The live broadcast of the award ceremony on TV can indeed greatly increase the popularity of this award.

As a player, Jester knows how attractive this kind of live broadcast of awards is to players, so when he learned that the VGA planned to broadcast this year's awards through live TV, he also felt that if GDC did not change it, it might really be surpassed by VGA.

After all, the selection of VGA is more friendly to those players.

GDC's selection is much colder.

This is also similar to the situation of these two awards in the world that Jester is familiar with, although the history of GDC is earlier than VGA, but later the influence of VGA is above GDC, to be precise, the influence in the minds of players, to be above GDC, the problem is that the games selected by GDC are too cold, very unlikable to players.

However, GDC doesn't care anymore and still goes its own way.

However, the live broadcast of GDC's awards ceremony is not something that Jester can say alone, after all, the organizer of GDC is not him or Mars Entertainment, but the World Video Game Association, which was initiated by him, but it is three companies that initiated the establishment and. There are also twenty permanent members, all of whom have voting rights.

Something like live streaming GDC's annual celebration doesn't need to be voted on by all members.

But at the very least, it requires the consent of the three initiators.

Therefore, he still needs to inform Sega and Sony about this matter, although Jester expects that they will not object to this kind of thing, but they still need to be notified first.

Fortunately, there is still some time before the GDC conference at the end of the year, so Jester is not in a hurry.

Actually, it was at the E3 show before. It's not just "Quake 4" that is in the limelight, for example, another brand-new game from Mars Entertainment, a game called "Sword Sealing Demon Record" developed by Z people, has attracted a lot of attention, even though a year has passed, but the boom of "Diablo" has not weakened much among players in North America.

This is thanks to the role of Battle.net and Ladder.

Diablo can be said to have led the resurgence of a game genre, and it seems that since the popularity of this game, players in North America have instantly become interested in other games in this genre.

And following the trend is also the favorite thing to do in the gaming industry. Because it's the safest thing to do.

Therefore, for more than a year, the sales of dark games have been quite good.

However, with the fact that this type of game has been released in large numbers for more than a year. Players are also a little tired of this crazy behavior, of course, the main reason is that there are too many such games. And none of them have Diablo still played, not to mention that they don't have Battle.net for players to use.

As a result, the sales of dark-oriented games in the last month or two have not been very good.

As a matter of fact. It's not the time for Darkness to explode into games, and even in the history that Jester has experienced, it will only appear after the release of Diablo 2.

In the beginning, neither the players nor the makers of other companies paid much attention to the game, and naturally they were not interested.

It's not that players aren't interested in Diablo games, in fact, before the E3 exhibition, a survey was also organized, asking what games players now want to see at the E3 exhibition, the first is naturally Jester's 'era' plan that has been bounced for N years, and the second is "Diablo 2", which reminds Jester of the 3 unlikely games of the later E3 exhibition.

FF7, the man-eating vulture, and Shenmue 3.

Of course, all three games were later announced at the pre-show press conference of E3, which caused no less shock than a 12-magnitude earthquake at the time.

Naturally, at this year's E3, the news of the 'era' is still not much trace, however, at the pre-show press conference of Mars Entertainment, Jester took the stage again in person after a few years, although he didn't say too much about the 'era' project, however, Jester still explained that the development progress of this game has been completed for most of the time, and it is not far from the real public.

But even though there is no news of 'Era', there is still news of Diablo 2. Mo Wymmy and Bill. Rogge's team has been working on the game for a whole year, and Heroes of Might and Blood, which was launched at the same time as them, has also achieved extremely good sales, but Diablo 2 is a much larger project and naturally takes a lot more time.

While players didn't get any further information about the 'Era' project on E3, they didn't get the actual gameplay footage of Diablo 2.

But they saw a demo of a new ARPG Dark-to-play game, and there was a demo of it!

This is really a dark game that is very cool to play and very interesting.

Anyone who has played this game has to admit that if you just talk about the stand-alone part, this game is much better than Diablo 1, and, in terms of graphics and optimization, this game called "Sword Seal Demon Record" is definitely the top in the industry.

"Is this really a game developed by people from China Z?"

That's all the questions in the minds of those who played the game at E3 at the time.

In fact, even within Mars Entertainment, there are many people who have this question, especially the big fat man Bill. When Rogge first played this game, as the person in charge of the Diablo 2 project, the original historical father of Darkness, he did feel the attraction of this game called "Sword and Sword", although it was very different from Diablo 2 that they were starting with.

However, they can still learn a lot.

This can't help but surprise them. (To be continued......)
