The design of League of Legends is actually different from Dota, so to speak, Dota is more focused on competitive content, and League of Legends is more inclined to casual commercial games, which is caused by the difference in ideology and design starting point between the two.

Qiu Ze's game plan is obviously for the 99.999% of ordinary players, he listened to his father's advice, and the difficulty of League of Legends has dropped a lot compared to Dota, after all, there are very few ordinary people in this world who can stand at the top of the world like EHOME, LongGame, and other gamers who stand at the top of the world.

The smartest businessmen in the world will not only pay attention to such a small group of people, they will look at a wider range of people, Yang Yun knows this truth.

Jews like to earn money from women and children the most, they believe that men control the world, but women control men, and children are the future of men.

In real history, Sega was bent on making hard-core professional games, and finally fell into the miserable end of bankruptcy, in fact, many men are stingy, games, entertainment, movies, novels, many people who love hard-core professional games are also technical men, they are very good at finding free things, no matter how professional Sega is, it can't defy the laws of the market.

Nintendo looked down on women's and children's games, and was eventually taken over by Sony PS, which specializes in casual and music games.

Disney makes more money than any other company, and children are their most valued customers, and adults may be reluctant to spend money on themselves, but they are definitely not stingy with children.

League of Legends is the same, this is a game that claims to have 300 million young registered users, oh no. 300 Million Youth seems like another shooter game, but League of Legends has $500 million in sales a year. Anyone who looks at it will be greedy, Yang Yun looked at this planning plan and was happy. Qiu Ze's idea of game entertainment won his heart.

"This little one...... If I didn't know the ins and outs of League of Legends, I would have thought that he also came through time. It's almost time, Riot has been making League of Legends for a few years? '06 or '07? No matter what, anyway, we have a lot of users, and the market is still ours after we make it. ”

Yang Yun thought for a while, and then began to revise some content in Qiu Ze's plan, mainly in the calculation rules of money.

Dota is different from League of Legends in terms of its money system, for example, in Kill mode, both killers and assisters are rewarded with money. The slain has to deduct the money, which is a disguised encouragement of competitive confrontation, encouraging team battles, encouraging Gank, and encouraging the enemy's main exporter to snowball, abuse Xiang, and kill ghosts.

However, League of Legends is rewarded for killing, but there is no punishment for death, which is relatively more encouraging for players to push towers. Fight junglers, kill dragons and grab the economy, the best tactic is to safely play money online and push the tower under the tower. Let the whole faction get more money, reduce the number and time of individual deaths, and give the whole team an economic advantage. If the team's economic advantage accumulates to two big pieces, the victory is almost decided.

Here's a very simple example. If the player spends 5 minutes setting up an ambush and calling friends. Thousands of miles chased and killed the other party, and obtained 300 yuan of head income, and the other party pushed the tower with a line in 5 minutes, mended the knife, collected the wild monsters, and earned 400 yuan, which is a loss for the killer player, because the dead will be resurrected in twenty or thirty seconds, and they can come out to play money, in case the killer wolf bèi escapes, it will take 8 seconds to teleport back to the city, and the gains and losses in the middle are easy to calculate.

Of course, it's not that League of Legends' Gank is meaningless, but compared to Dota, some different rules also mean different details, different focuses, and different gameplay.

After modifying the money system, Yang Yun carefully watched Qiu Ze's other ideas.

Cancel the denial This is a major feature of League of Legends, because it is quite a test of the operation of the small soldier to make up the knife, in Dota is the threshold to distinguish between rookies and masters, generally in the middle of the naked without pressure with the line, 10 minutes to reach more than 100 positive and negative to pass the line, each wave must be at least 4 soldiers to collect.

This operation requirement is really too difficult for more than 99% of players, and in the fierce online confrontation, it is too difficult to either forget to make up the knife or forget to collect your own blood, after all, the other party still has a hero to compete with the player, which is too difficult.

And League of Legends is much simpler, as long as it is not suppressed by the opponent's hero, a qualified ADC should be able to make up more than 60 knives in 10 minutes in the middle lane, as long as it is not a brainless point to the opponent's hero, or it is Gank, basically this goal can be achieved.

There is another advantage of this change, that is, as long as you are still with the line, you will have experience, and the hero leveling speed is faster than Dota with a supplemental knife, and it is normal for a Dota match to exceed 20 minutes and half an hour, while League of Legends can generally solve the battle in 20 minutes.

Yang Yun added an opinion after planning the plan: "At 20 minutes, vote to surrender." ”

The fast-paced life of modern society,The corresponding must also be a fast-paced game,Casual players generally don't wait for more than half an hour of the game,20 shots can be said to be the characteristics of League of Legends,Dota does not have this。

However, when looking at Qiu Ze's killing title level below, fixed flash skills, knife jumping skills, accelerated flying shoes, free return to the city and teleportation skills, Yang Yun smiled dumbly, and began to modify it significantly, can't everything be the same as Dota, if it's all the same, it's better to design Dota 2.

He remembered a joke about League of Legends, saying that some players finally summed up their experience after many failures, attributed their long-term failures to the lack of strength of their teammates, and then made up a slip of the tongue and shouted in the preparation room before the start of each game: "Old man Wen can hang up and spray teammates, and Wu can cross the tower to send people's heads." You can go into a single one-on-five, and you can sit and wait for twenty votes when you retreat. In the front, he can fly to save the disabled enemy, and in the back, he can put the wall to block his teammates. If you are quiet, you will not see anyone for a hundred years, and if you move, you will send a super god for thousands of miles. Heroic flash to send a blood, sell up teammates without looking back. Downwind and waves, against the wind, five people, four pits and twenty votes. The old man wants to take the ADC, if you don't give it, it's up to me! ”

Seeing these remarks, who would dare to compete with him for ADC, and they all retreated one by one......

Yang Yun did not cancel the setting of 20 votes, and he also took the initiative to add Qiu Ze, who did not expect this, because he originally planned to completely make the game League of Legends into such a fast-paced game.

If you like the competitive mode, go play Dota, WCG will insist on making Dota a long-term tournament project, and will develop a separate game engine Dota 2 in the future, which is completely independent from the Warcraft 3 series, similar to CS, and becomes another classic 5VS5 team game.

If you like the casual mode, go play League of Legends, enjoy the thrill of killing, enjoy the gorgeous graphics, even if there is more controversy and teammates, so what?

It can become the most popular game in the minds of Chinese teenagers, with annual sales of more than 500 million US dollars, which is enough, and players should not look down on this and that, games are originally entertainment, who expects to play games to win the Nobel Prize?

Longteng made two games to meet the needs of players with different tastes, this is Yang Yun's original development plan for these two games, and Qiu Ze is at the right time.

When Qiu Ze came to the R&D center in the afternoon, Zhang Guoqiang's secretary regretfully informed him that Zhang Guoqiang went on a business trip to Shanghai at noon, and he didn't know where to put the game planning plan, and Zhang Guoqiang didn't explain before leaving, so Qiu Ze could only return disappointed.

But when Qiu Conglin was about to get off work, he received a call from Yang Yun's secretary, and he came to Yang Yun's side with some trepidation, thinking that his son had caused some big trouble.

Yang Yun motioned for him to sit on the sofa, and the secretary poured tea for the two, Qiu Conglin couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Yang, is this stinky boy Qiu Ze causing any trouble again?" ”

Yang Yun laughed: "Why do you say the word 'again'? Lao Qiu, it seems that you have no faith in your son! ”

Qiu Conglin was speechless, his first reaction was really that Qiu Ze had made a mistake, but Yang Yun's joking words made his mood instantly change a lot at this time, and he kept calm as much as possible.

"I would like to invite your son to be a part-time game designer of the company, so that he can come to work directly in the company when he is not busy with his studies, enjoy the treatment of the company's regular employees, receive a salary, and enjoy the dividends of game projects, do you have any opinions?"

"Huh? This...... Mr. Yang, is it because of the game "League of Legends"? ”

"Of course, whether he comes up with this plan or not, I'm going to launch a new game like this. Some of Qiu Ze's ideas coincide with mine, which is really surprising! I can see that he is a gifted child, and I think we should give him this opportunity to prove himself and stimulate his creativity as much as possible, what do you think? Yang Yun asked with a smile.

Qiu Conglin felt that happiness fell from the sky, he never expected that his son would be in line with Yang Yun's thoughts, you must know that none of the game projects that Yang Yun personally participated in were unsuccessful, these poisonous eyes don't know how many peers in the game industry are envious and jealous, Qiu Ze can have such a vision, it is really the blessing of the Qiu family!

"Okay, okay! I can promise to come down for him......" Qiu Conglin hurriedly replied.

Yang Yun waved his hand to stop him: "Mencius said, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically. Letting Qiu Ze take on such an important task all of a sudden is still too heavy for him now. We can't say it to him, we can only slowly accumulate it and let him gradually get into an important job. Lao Qiu, I don't know if you agree with my strategy? (To be continued......)
