After a while, Wang did not bear to start the official game and chose the double sword as a weapon.

The king did not expect much from the "oracle". He wants to play the game more and have fun leveling up.

The "oracle" is no longer new to him. Many domestic online games operate as a core profit point, and there are not a few companies that make money today.

In those games, props like "oracles" can be equipment, gems, and martial arts cheats...... There is only one thing in common, that is, the explosion rate is outrageously low. However, it can be obtained by the player by speeding up through realistic actions. For example, take RMB to buy directly from the mall......

Wang told Carmack at the time that he was referring to "a lot of games", which are the practices of those online games.

Don't think that domestic online games are of low quality and have a single gameplay, so you should underestimate them. Taking money out of other people's pockets is the most difficult thing, and Wang Bubu knows it well. Those games can double the company's profits year after year, and they can go public on the NASDAQ with this core playpoint, which is the ability.

Wang lives up to his personal preference and will never treat that kind of play point as a profit point. But because he had seen too much, even if it was like this, he still didn't have much interest.

Even if this game is really new to people now, he still only treats it as a small surprise.

What he wants to play in ARPG games the most is to use the same resources to upgrade equipment, attributes, and skills.

It was not easy to make this game by crossing over. He was reluctant to cheat on the gameplay, so he didn't adjust the value. At the start of the game, the number of Spirits is zero. If you don't have skills, you can only slash monsters, and leveling is very difficult. Fortunately, the flat slash attack of the dual swords is very fast and the efficiency is quite high.

After playing a certain number of spirits, he will have to face a choice. Is it to upgrade the basic attributes? Or smelting weapons or equipment? Or keep it and wait until you save more, and then order another skill?

There is a saying called "mediocrity disturbs itself". Wang Buzhu This is a typical mediocrity self-disturbance, obviously he can call up the data casually, but he has to fall into the choice.

Because for him, it's really a complete experience of the upgrade process. But it's the most precious thing to play!

He decided to upgrade a skill with his spirit first. Gain higher mob farming efficiency.

After having skills, the true qi is not enough. The next step is to upgrade the "spirit" in the attribute to get more true qi value. Re-smelt equipment to increase defense and attack......

There are so many things to upgrade, but they all depend on one resource. As a result, there is never enough spirit.

But it also makes leveling up and farming more closely related. The more the player needs the Spirit. The more you have to work hard to farm monsters.

Don't cheat words. The amount of spirit required to open another weapon line is simply astronomical. If you only use the skill of the "Dual Sword Weapon System", it will not be easy to form a combo. It wasn't until he had all four skills that he scored a combo score.

At this point. He's safer, he doesn't have to fight monsters, he can kill monsters with just combos. The urgency of the upgrade in the early stage has been reduced a lot, but Wang Bubu still has the need to continue to upgrade.

"It's a good game!" Wang Bu muttered to himself. It's definitely a game he's willing to put his time into.

At the same time, the employees of the ARPG game team are also playing this game with relish. Although the game is not yet ready, it is good to take a break and see your results.

I didn't expect it! They've never experienced such an urgent need for upgrades in the game! In general role-playing games, upgrades are synchronized. Attributes, skills are all mixed together.

The game mixes all the upgrades together and allows the player to choose freely. Choosing to upgrade the same is equivalent to squeezing out the opportunity of several other upgrades. The consequence is to make players look forward to the next upgrades even more!

Nor have they ever felt so much satisfaction. One by one, the small upgrades have brought about the expectations that have been met again and again.

It turns out that Wang does not live up to the fun of upgrading, which is like this!

In addition to that, there is also the fun of figuring out skills and improving your combo score. There's also the fun of spawning oracles and releasing divine blessings. There isn't much of a plot, it's all fun brought by the gameplay itself.

The fun of gameplay, not story, can keep players entertained for longer. The plot will always be finished, and the story will end one day. But the gameplay is much longer, and as long as the player can have fun at the beginning, it will definitely last for months.

And the burden is also minimal. There's no plot to hang your appetite.,The initial frenzy has passed.,When you want to experience that gameplay.,Go play.。 After a few levels and satisfying the fun, you can quit. It's not a game that is so heavy that you have to indulge in it.

Sure enough, as the great god said, these are two completely different games from "Diablo 2". Players need to make decisions about the resources they get, and there are random oracles as a surprise along the way, and collecting oracles is another upgrade...... The combat parts of the entire game are twisted into a single unit, and instead of conflict, they complement each other.

This game,The picture quality is almost bad.。 The employees sighed, and then put pressure on the program: "I dropped an oracle here and didn't pick it up, so I flashed back!" The game is better, I jumped three times! ”

"I'm already out of temper dancing, this game is too happy!"

The programs are also playing, and as a result, they are also jumping to death. I'm sorry, so I'm going to quit and look for a bug.

……

Carmack endured jumping out from time to time, and finally made a medium-sized oracle, which was satisfied. Come to find Wang Buying.

Wang Bu looked at him and said with a smile: "How is this game?" ”

"It feels very new. I've never played a game like this. "If I were twenty years old now, I would be playing in it every day." ”

"Thank you." Wang did not hesitate to smile and asked, "Then how are you now?" ”

"Now, I'll probably just be on vacation for a day or two." Carmack said.

Carmack was right. "Stunning Country: Gaiden" is different from "My Anti-Japanese", and does not carry anything. The most important purpose is to pave the way for the year-end official story and convey the worldview. Due to the very short production cycle, it was impossible to make any earth-shattering plots.

Carmack has always insisted that games are actionable movies. And this game has no plot, and it is completely out of line with the direction of the game he explores. Once he's experienced those plays, he won't play any more.

Wang Buyi also knew Carmack's psychology, and assured with a smile: "My next work will definitely have a very grand plot." ”

"I just wanted to talk to you about the next work." "When I saw the prototype of your game, I made up my mind," Carmack said. ”

"Is it about the co-developed engine?" The king was overjoyed.

Carmack didn't answer and asked: "It seems that your next work will be a 3D action game, right?" ”

"Yes." Wang Bu nodded and said, he had revealed this plan a long time ago, and it was not surprising that Carmack knew.

"The engine you're using is based on my work in the 90s, and it was developed for shooters. Action games can also be used, but they lack some related features. How can this ......" Carmack pondered for a moment, then said, "I can help you modify this engine, but I need you to take care of the development costs. All R&D expenses from now on. ”

"......" Wang did not understand. He has long proposed that Celadon Technology alone bear the cost of the "Ginkgo Tree Engine" jointly developed by the next three companies. Why would Carmack make such a request?

"I hope to develop a new engine every three years," Carmack said. After all, in the field of gaming, it is normal for a technological revolution to occur once every three years. However, my Id software didn't have enough money to support this work. ”

Wang Buyi nodded, he already knew this.

Don't look at Carmack's high spirits now, but Id Software's game product line is really scarce, and it is not like Villefort, which has an early cash flow. So it will soon be in the predicament of lack of funds. Compared with those wealthy and capricious giants, it is really difficult for Carmack and his Id software to maintain the first echelon and adhere to the open source policy.

Cokamak always insists on making the best games, and every game released is a masterpiece. As a result, in the end, even the Id software he founded himself was acquired. In the end, he left the company he founded and changed from a boss to a part-time worker......

No matter how arrogant Carmack is, he still feels it, right? That's why I made flights to China.

Wang Bubu asked, "You want to start developing a new engine every three years, and I will fully fund it." Usage sharing? ”

"Yes." Carmack said.

If this condition is taken back to the United States, no matter who it is told to, it will be rejected in one go.

Because it would be too expensive to develop a technologically advanced game engine. It's no longer the time when Carmack can develop a 3D engine on his own, and it's easy to burn tens of millions of dollars a year.

There is so much input into it, and the output is still uncertain. Anyone who knows a little bit about the game industry wouldn't have such a collaboration with Carmack.

But Carmack felt that Wang would agree.

Wang lived up to his strong desire to make a good game, but he didn't have the technology to do it.

And what about the Carmack? I hope to directly develop the "God's Golden Finger", and after the engine is made, I will use it to make one or two games to prove how powerful the engine is.

Practical reasons are also important. The amount of money needed to develop the engine was getting bigger and bigger, and Carmack was already feeling stretched thin.

There is a natural basis for cooperation between the two. Next, it depends on whether the king is willing to take the money out and burn it?

"Okay!" The king was so happy that they all blossomed. He doesn't have the 3D engine development technology here at all, so even if he starts cultivating people from now, how can he cultivate a super master like Carmack?

Carmack's suggestion simply went to the heart of Wang Buying. A new 3D engine is developed every three years for both shooters and action games. Every three years, Wang Bu can improve the game by a generation! It's just the money. (To be continued......)
