The reputation of "Resident Evil 4" declined.

The current score of the game Starry Sky "Resident Evil 4" players is 7.6 points, and it is still declining.

In the previous "Resident Evil 3", which was the lowest rating, its player evaluation score also had 8.6 points.

"The rhythm of the three sides is the same as before, and it just hit our soft underbelly." In the conference room of Nebula Games, Yang Chen, Xu Yu, and the relevant persons in charge of UEgame and Jiasheng were discussing the specific situation on video.

The player's wind review is a bit polarized,Among them, the players who belong to the plot party have highly praised "Resident Evil 4",Appeared in the form of a group drama,After Lin Jiayi's processing,Compared with the Resident Evil in the original dream memory,This work makes the shooting feel more excellent,At the same time, the game's process is more combative, including levels,It's all greatly streamlined。

Fast food players, as well as story-oriented players, all gave high scores.

But in this praise, there is also a big wave of criticism, that is, the game has become 'not scary'.

Zombie dogs, tyrants, lickers, and these classic hideous monsters from "Resident Evil" still appear.

But also compared to the scarcity of ammunition resources in the first generation, the depressive style of the whole game has also been attenuated, and more often than not, the gun is not panicked, and there are many bullet thieves and thunder.

In this case, Yang Chen actually knows that simple horror will not work, on the one hand, the player's acceptance of horror is getting higher and higher, on the other hand, the increase in the cost of the game, coupled with the narrow audience of horror themes, the final situation may be word-of-mouth praise and sales avalanche.

Because most players don't dare to play at all, or they like to watch others play.

At present, the volume of Nebula games is not unaffordable, but sometimes it is not something that can be done casually without fear of loss, and the subsequent impact must be considered.

"Sales haven't actually affected much, and there has even been a small increase, but the players obviously can't afford to ignore it." Speaking of which, Xu Yu also had a big headache.

Of course, in fact, there is still a culprit behind this root cause.

For most ordinary players, the performance of "Resident Evil 4" is actually good enough, but it is an instinct to pursue better things no matter who it is, such as the game Hi Plus One, I can not play, but I have to have.

In this case, ordinary players didn't think about it so much at first, but once the rhythm was brought up, such as questioning the horror of "Resident Evil 4", some old players who played "Resident Evil" in the past have a feeling.

That's right!

How is Resident Evil not scary?

Even if they were so scared that they bought the game at the beginning, they didn't even clear the game at all, but I just wanted to be horrible!

This is also the reason why "Resident Evil 4" was able to sell so many copies while players said that it was not scary.

Because everyone found that the quality of this game is very good, and it's not really that super scary, it can be played completely, coupled with the IP effect of "Resident Evil" itself, and even "Resident Evil 4" sold better than the previous ones, even if it broke out with word-of-mouth influence, it was not like the previous "City in the Sky", suddenly Waterloo.

But that doesn't mean you can pretend to be okay.

In the quiet conference room, there was a pause of about ten or twenty seconds, and Yang Chen suddenly made a sound.

"In terms of VR games, can UEgame give some technical help? In terms of the development of VR games, our Nebula games still have some shortcomings, especially when it comes to games like "Resident Evil" with design and action elements. ”

Hearing Yang Chen's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.

Grayson on the UEgame side looked surprised: "Mr. Yang, what do you mean?" ”

"Nebula Games has always been a player-oriented game company, since players say that they think "Resident Evil 4" is too scary, then I think it is necessary for players to understand what real horror is, but I still have an idea, which may require UEgame and Jiasheng to agree." Yang Chen said with a smile.

"Of course, there is no problem, if Mr. Yang is interested in developing a VR project, we can send a pair of technical teams, of course, Mr. Yang has to pay for the treatment; Also, Mr. Yang, what do you think? Grevine nodded, he could still make decisions about these things.

"It's not just VR games, but also PCs, but I want more players to be able to experience the beauty of the game, free for all users on our platform, and the first 10,000 players who clear the game can get a shopping cart discount code, and players who don't grab the first 10,000 can also get a discount code for separate use."

Yang Chen said with a smile on his face.

"There is no problem on the FOREX, in fact, we are also discussing the strategy of attracting players with discount codes." Jiasheng nodded.

On the UEgame side, Greven also nodded: "Of course there is no problem. ”

They had been discussing the discount code before, and now Nebula Games suddenly stood up and said that it would develop a game that might be triple-A for free to attract players, and they were naturally happy.

And Xu Yu was thoughtful.

After the meeting ended, Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen and said, "Mr. Yang, do you want to get involved in VR?" ”

"Technology accumulation." Hearing Xu Yu's words, Yang Chen nodded lightly.

Previously, it cooperated with Warwick in China to launch the VR version of "Yu-Gi-Oh" and "Silent Hill", but compared with UEgame and the three major ones who have been deeply involved in VR for a period of time, in fact, Nebula Games still has a lot of shortcomings.

On the one hand, Yang Chen hopes to launch a new work, and pay tribute to the three small conspiracies, on the other hand, the main thing is to steal the teacher, and if he can swing a hoe from UEgame and knock on a corner, it would be better.

Xu Yu, who hadn't thought that Yang Chen was already thinking about how to pry the corner of the wall, asked a little curiously: "But more resources in our follow-up plan are invested in "The Witcher: Wild Hunt", and the follow-up of "Resident Evil" is basically not arranged, right?" ”

"Actually, there are still a lot of differences with the previous "Resident Evil", if you have to give an example, it's actually more similar to "Escape", of course, it's just an example, the plot is not the most important horror and scary talent is the core, and the story is not the previous blockbuster-style one, well, you can understand it as the story of a door-to-door son-in-law and an old father-in-law's family." Yang Chen thought of something and smiled.

？？？？？？

Xu Yu looked confused.

"Resident Evil" series, what does it have to do with the son-in-law and the old father-in-law's family?

It used to be a biochemical anti-terrorist operation, but now it sounds like how it has become a family ethic?
