"So, one last question." Jester clasped his hands together and leaned forward with a satisfied smile on his face, and it was clear that he was very happy with the previous interview questions, and Adrian Loken's expertise and ability seemed to him to be no problem at all.

"Ed, if I put you in charge of a magazine, what would your attitude be towards these released games?" Jester said with a smile, probably afraid that the other party would not understand what he meant, so he explained again, "I mean, will you follow your own subjective judgment, or will you be affected by external pressure?" ”

"Huh." Adrian chuckled at Jester's words, and after the conversation that seemed to be a conversation between friends, his sense of distance from Jester's idol had diminished considerably, and in his eyes, the man who was six years younger than him was like an optimistic big boy.

Of course, a very talented big boy.

"BOSS, even though you haven't officially hired me yet, please allow me to call you that, in fact, my attitude towards this magazine is not important, but your attitude towards it is the most important thing." Adrian replied.

Jester didn't speak, he still looked at Adrian with a smile, and after a dozen seconds of silence, he suddenly stood up and held out his hand to him again.

"Welcome to GAME Magazine."

"It's an honor." Adrian was also in control of Jester's hand.

Next, Adrian began to prepare for "GAME", from recruitment, to the content of the magazine, and typesetting, he was in charge of it. Jester also provided him with a lot of inspiration based on the experience of some magazines he had read in later generations, but some columns could not be implemented at present, such as letters from readers.

However, Jester still agreed to draw a few people from Mars Entertainment to do an exclusive interview, and many players who like Mars Entertainment will definitely be interested in it.

However, Jester is not interested in this kind of interview, and he is going to let Mark Saini or Sean Dabilee be the candidates for this interview, after all, he himself is already known to many players, and Mars Entertainment is not only due to his current achievements.

However, what intrigued Adrian the most was the demo version of the game called Guild Wars in Jester's mouth.

It is said that Jester made zuò specifically for the release of "GAME".

He couldn't wait to see what kind of surprise Jester, who was always full of whimsical ideas when it came to game design, could bring him this time.

When following Jester to Mars Entertainment to interview Mark Seney or Sean Dabilee, Adrian was also fortunate enough to play a game in which Jester participated in the production of Zuò throughout the game, although it was only a trial version, and the entire level flow was only half of the full version, and even the game content was not a quarter of the content of the official version.

However, when he and an employee of Mars Entertainment cooperated to destroy one tank after another, broke through one level after another, and found that there were so many coordination and tactics hidden in such a simple map element, he couldn't help but be deeply attracted to this game.

And this sense of substitution in fighting to the death against the evil invaders in order to defend his homeland and turning the tide also made Adrian's blood boil.

For the whole afternoon, he was tirelessly playing the game over and over again, even if there was no one to accompany him in the doubles, he played it by himself.

If Jester hadn't called him to do an interview, maybe Adrian wouldn't have left the IBM PC compatible machine with the "Guild Wars" demo version installed, well, for the sake of the fact that the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, all the IBM compatible machines here are all purchased from Dell.

Moreover, Dell's sales have been very good recently, and it is said that the sales in July have increased fivefold compared to June, and the total sales have reached one million dollars.

Of course, this point is still not in the eyes of Jester.

"The game is just flawless." The moment he saw Jester, Adrian said this, with an unconcealable look of excitement on his face, and his mouth gushed about the game "Guild Wars", which was almost like praising this game on the ground and in the sky.

This made Jester a little happy to hear it, but he still couldn't laugh or cry.

He said directly to Adrian: "Wait a minute and you'll interview our game development director at Mars Entertainment, Mark Senny, well, he's a year older than me, very talented, and I'll let you play it later, Mark just announced that he has scrapped the first two levels of a game that is going to be remastered, and then you will find that the games you played before are as bad as outdated news in front of this game, and they are not worth mentioning." ”

Adrian looked at Jester with some surprise, knowing that the previous games he had played in Jester's mouth included all the games he had made before.

And for the game "American Cubes", Adrian almost never got tired of playing it, he really couldn't believe that there was any game that made him feel that "American Cubes" could also be outdated.

Not even the Yeti Brothers he played at the demo.

Could it be that this game is even more fun than "Frost Brothers", and how good is it?

"Huh." Jester just smiled lightly in the face of Adrian's question, he didn't explain it to him immediately, but said simply, "No matter how fun American Cube is, it's just a small game, this kind of game can't cause a trend, and when you see the game that Mark Seni is making Zuò, you'll know what I mean." ”

With this curiosity, Adrian met Mark Saini, who was still forced to work overtime even though it was time to get off work.

Jester was not with Adrian during the whole interview, he is also very busy with his work now, he just received a call from Qin Shuyao, saying that the Olympic delegation has arrived in Los Angeles, and under the organization of the Los Angeles consulate, these students from China are ready to unite some overseas Chinese and Chinese to hold a welcome party recently.

The location has been chosen, it is a three-star hotel in Los Angeles by Grandpa Jester, and Grandpa Jester sponsors the hotel for free, but the organizers rejected Grandpa Jester's offer to sponsor money again, after all, this welcome party is not so good-looking for one person to sponsor.

Although there are also a lot of enthusiastic Chinese donations, the funds are still not very lenient, so Qin Shuyao remembered Jester, a US imperialist tyrant who was ready to invest tens of millions of dollars in China, so he had the idea of fighting Jester, a local tyrant.

Jester also agreed after listening to it, he first asked the general amount of donations from others, how much gap there was, although he was not short of money, but he couldn't stand out too much, he could be a little more than others, but not too much, after getting Qin Shuyao's reply, it looked like it was less than 10,000 US dollars, and Jester directly said that he made up for all the less.

$10,000 is really nothing to Jester now, and it's not too much, and it's not too conspicuous.

This also made Qin Shuyao extremely happy, and she also asked Jester to attend this welcome party.

Jester, of course, agreed.

WHEN JESTER SAW ADRIAN AGAIN, IT WAS IN THE-KING'S RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ROOM.

At this point, Adrian's interview with Mark Seni was over, and he offered to try out what Jester called an 'epoch-making' game that was being secretly developed.

Mark Seni also received a notice from Jester before, and he only tried to play the "Avengers" that he had already abandoned, using the old engine to make Zuò's "Avengers", and the new engine "Avengers" He was going to make Zuò more exquisite and add more content, and even the combo system that he had always wanted to do but had not succeeded because of the fluency problem was also going to be added this time, so he also readily agreed to Adrian's request.

Therefore, Adrian saw the first two levels of the already abandoned "Avengers".

Then, Adrian was almost defenseless and was drawn to the fight beat 'em up game that created a whole new genre.

Fascinated, to be exact.

The character he controls is 1P, and he is also the male protagonist Patrick, in the setting this is a skilled Jeet Kune Do, Muay Thai and French kickboxing master, the champion of the No Limit Fighting Tournament, he returns from the Netherlands to participate in the competition, ready to travel to Japan with his fiancée to celebrate his new championship, but when he returns home, he only finds the messy room covered in blood, and a blood-stained note nailed to the wall by a dagger with a special pattern on the handle.

On the note was Patrick's fiancée's handwriting, and on it was written in blood a glaring word, HELP.

And on the table, there was also a bloody finger left, and on this severed finger was an engagement ring that Patrick gave to his fiancée.

Then, according to the special pattern on the dagger, the enraged Patrick knows that the person who robbed his fiancée is the leader of a huge crime syndicate in Sin City, so the game of finding his wife and finding the enemy for revenge begins.

Originally, there were only two characters, but Mark Seni added a third hidden character to Jester's construction, and the third person had to be selected at the beginning of the game with a special button.

2P is the younger sister of the male protagonist's fiancée, a student of a Chinese boxing martial arts gym, blonde hair, proficient in Wing Chun, and the hidden character is an Interpol who has been tracking down this criminal syndicate, proficient in boxing, judo and Israeli maja.

Originally, the premise was to prepare for Jeet Kune Do, but after much consideration, Mark Saini decided to set up three characters with completely different fighting styles, because each character uses different moves, so it also makes the whole game more research-oriented.

Of course, in order to make each character's moves as realistic as possible, it cost 50,000 US dollars just to hire these coaches who are proficient in various martial arts to participate in the setting of the moves.

MOREOVER, WHEN MARK SENI SCRAPPED THE FIRST TWO LEVELS OF THE AVENGERS, THE ENTIRE THE-KING R&D TEAM SPENT A FULL $200,000 ON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, WHICH WAS EVEN MORE THAN ALL THE OTHER R&D PERSONNEL COMBINED.

When Adrian controls Patrick to defeat the boss of the first level, a samurai armed with a Japanese katana, with a roundhouse kick, he also sees Jester who has been standing quietly beside him for a while.

He looked at Jester even more in shock, and even spoke incoherently.

He couldn't believe that he was so good in front of him, so good that he couldn't find any vocabulary game to praise the game, it turned out to be just a discarded version.

He hadn't even forgotten that he had described "Guild Wars" as perfect not long ago.

But now in his opinion, compared to this game called "Avengers", although "Guild Wars City" is a very good game, it is still a big gap.

"BOSS, you sue me, am I dreaming?"

Hearing Adrian's words so unbounded, Jester just smiled, without explanation, he just said simply.

"You can write truthfully about the report of "The Avengers", but don't reveal what type of game it is, and don't reveal the specific plot of this game, you just need to say that this game has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in research and development, but because it did not meet the designer's expectations, it was scrapped and redone, but it is the abandoned version, in the author's opinion, it is enough The epoch-making game has almost done the best of this era, flawless, and it is really unimaginable that the designer can improve such a perfect game. ”

Adrian has no opinion on this, because this game called "Avengers" gives him the same feeling as what Jester said just now, so after hearing Jester's words, he agreed without hesitation.

Then, Jester continued.

"This game is not for you to play for nothing, for example, you have to make a rating system in the magazine, you can start from the picture, music, plot, playability, etc., establish a rating system, give the game a score, and then make an advertisement, announcing that at the next trial held in New York, this "Avengers" will be officially unveiled, and the first two levels will be opened to participating players to try the game."

Seeing Adrian nodding his head and indicating that he had written it down, Jester didn't talk too much nonsense, he had discussed with Adrian many times before doing this magazine, and there was no need to repeat it again, so he just added one last sentence.

"However, the core of the main hype of this inaugural issue is the first PC game officially produced by Mars Entertainment, as long as it only revolves around this, it will not worry about sales, we are a new magazine, and what can attract those gamers is the trial floppy disk of "Guild Wars City" that comes with it."

Adrian was extremely confident in this, and he said in a non-questioning tone: "Boss, don't worry, the quality of the game of Guild Wars City, even if it is only a demo version, is better than any computer game at this stage, and it is not a little better. Our magazine is sure to be a big hit! ”

"That's good." Jester nodded with satisfaction, the next thing about the magazine is Adrian's.
