Chapter 243: The Possibility of New VR Game Ideas
The spin-off multiplayer online game "Resident Evil", the official fancomics and the doujin have brought a large number of fans to "Resident Evil 2" in China.
And the main topic in the game circle recently is undoubtedly "Resident Evil 2".
The DLC plot about THE BOSS will be put on hold for the time being, and the follow-up will be simple numerical and bug fixes, and Yang Chen himself will think about his life events and awards and activities.
Not long after the launch of "Resident Evil 2", Yang Chen received official news and officially determined the specific time for the selection of game producers of the year.
The award selection for this game producer of the year is basically to include the game producers who are more in contact with the current annual results, and the target is not the game but the game producer.
At the same time, there is a certain official color, although this award is very valuable in the industry, but it is not well-known on the player's side, and unlike the previous annual game selection, the selection of this event will not even announce the relevant video, but will announce the final list on the official website.
Two days before the awards, Yang Chen and Lin Jia went to the capital together, and the venue was the cultural exhibition center in Beijing, where the official domestic film and television entertainment awards are generally held.
Although it is an award, the cycle is still quite long, lasting for a total of three days, and it also includes a series of links such as industry experience teaching lectures.
After all, the people who can come to participate in the event are basically the leading figures in the industry, and this time it can be regarded as an exchange in the industry.
There will be an open exchange of ideas about game design, views on the game market, and so on.
"This year's best of the year has been booked by Mr. Yang." The two of them registered to enter the venue, and Lin Jiayi next to him said to Yang Chen.
Hearing Lin Jiayi's words, Yang Chen smiled and didn't shirk denying it, after all, it would be a bit too pretentious to say anything in this situation.
Not to mention the other games launched this year, just one "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" is enough for Yang Chen to win the title of producer of the year, not to mention the release of a "Metal Gear Solid: Atomic Blast" not long ago
Although the final list has not yet been announced, basically everyone in the industry who came to participate already knows who will win the final producer of the year.
"Resident Evil 2 is very good, although the horror element is reduced, but the playability is much better than "Resident Evil"." Yang Chen said to Lin Jiayi as they walked.
Regarding the exchange meeting in the industry, Yang Chen and Lin Jiayi had no plans to go, because it didn't make much sense, for a game maker of their level.
Basically going to that kind of exchange meeting, there will basically be a situation where they say over there and then a group of people lick it, it doesn't make much sense.
After all, you're awesome, and you're right.
It is worth going to the lecture session of the industry in the evening, including Lin Jiayi and Yang Chen, who are all invited to give lectures on stage.
"Xiaolin, Mr. Yang ......"
When Yang Chen and Lin Jiayi were chatting and walking, someone behind them suddenly shouted.
Hearing the scream, the two men stopped and turned their heads.
"Brother Zhang." Lin Jiayi shouted with a smile on his face.
Yang Chen also greeted.
NetDragon's Zhang Yida.
"I've experienced "Resident Evil 2", it's very good, compared to your previous "Time and Space" series, you have made a lot of progress." Zhang Yida said with a smile, and then looked at Yang Chen: "I have to say that Mr. Yang, your "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" is a lesson for the industry, and the long shot of "Metal Gear Solid: Atomic Explosion Point" is even more amazing, the combination of movies and games, I can't wait to play the story of "Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain". ”
There is no doubt that as a top game producer in the industry, he has been in this industry for so many years, and it is not only his personal strength to be able to get to this position, Zhang Yida has obviously turned over the book "Emotional Intelligence", no matter what his true thoughts are, but it is such a commercial blow that makes Yang Chen's favorability of him rise instantly, after all, no one likes to listen to good words.
However, Yang Chen still had some sense of proportion in his heart, although he was forced by Zhang Yida, Yang Chen did not swell, just responded with a smile, and then made a blow in turn.
"Speaking of which, I only developed one game this year, and I still borrowed the model of "Biochemical Auto Chess" from Mr. Yang." The two of them were blogging each other for a while, and Zhang Yida smiled and revealed the matter of admitting and borrowing, which made Yang Chen's good impression of him go up to a higher level.
"It's normal to borrow from the gameplay." Yang Chen smiled.
"The way to play auto-chess, although it feels like it's just been on fire for a while, but I think this mode of play, there is the possibility of digging deeper, just like the Skyrim cards in "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", and it is also very suitable for the current VR platform, although the VR equipment has been improved, the price has been reduced, but its performance has also weakened somewhat, and it is still difficult for large-scale 3A production to land on this level of VR equipment." Zhang Yida discussed with Yang Chen.
"Lightweight casual games are indeed more suitable for today's VR platforms." Yang Chen also expressed his opinion, the price of VR equipment with high enough performance to support 3A masterpiece pictures cannot be reduced, and the price of VR equipment is insufficient, which is actually very embarrassing.
"But these lightweight games, such as card and board games, are easy to develop on mobile platforms, and the VR platform is not very meaningful, so at the beginning, I planned to combine VR with AR to make players feel more immersive through special equipment, such as we are playing a game of auto-chess, but the background is the conference center where we are." Zhang Yida said with some regret.
In the end, the game he developed cut the AR function, because although the idea was good, it was too expensive and too restrictive, and it had to be equipped with special equipment to do it.
The combination of VR and AR, the card is projected into reality?
Listening to Zhang Yida's words, Yang Chen suddenly fell into deep thought, and at the same time, he thought of several games and their animations in his dream memory.
He mentioned the idea of a VR experience hall to Xu Yu before, can these two games become exclusive games for the experience hall?
And these two games don't necessarily have to land on the VR platform, including the PC platform and even the mobile platform, they can be synchronized.
With the reference and comparative thinking of dream memories, Yang Chen thought of a lot of possibilities in an instant.
