In the teaching building of the directing department of the Shanghai campus on Huashan Road, Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang completed the admission procedures together.

Different from the students in the ordinary normal school recruitment, Yang Chen's advanced training class is located in a different campus.

"Are you really interested in learning this?" Looking at Wang Yaliang, who signed up with him next to him, Yang Chen, who was holding the teaching materials in his hand, was a little helpless.

"Of course! You all need to learn about directing, so why can't I do it in order to do better game development? Wang Yaliang glanced at Yang Chen.

"Okay, let's go pick up the steel eggs first, the house has already asked the assistant to find a special housekeeping company to clean it, and the time is almost there." Yang Chen looked at Wang Yaliang and said.

Because the distance is not too far, I did not choose a plane or high-speed rail to transport the steel eggs together, but directly let the driver drive at high speed for several hours.

Then Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang had no problems, but Gangdan was a little sluggish after a day in the car.

After seeing the pet hospital, the doctor gave a diagnosis that the steel egg had been sitting in the car for too long and had some motion sickness.

drove to the pet hospital to take the steel eggs home, and then bought some necessities for life, and the next day Yang Chen also saw the class schedule in the group.

Because it is a refresher class, it is mainly for social personnel, so the class can be said to be quite compact, basically from Monday to Friday full classes.

After all, although it is said to be a refresher class, it is not the kind of school that pretends to be in the play, and there are still quite a lot of requirements, such as if you don't pass the final exam, the other party will not issue you a certificate of completion.

Of course, although it is strict, there are not a few people who can't get a certificate of completion, after all, in addition to some company executives who come to study and learn knowledge, they also need a certificate of completion, and there are classes like Yang Chen who just enroll in to learn something.

The certificate of completion is not important to Yang Chen, what matters is how much he can learn.

Looking at the main courses, referring to the course introductions at the back, Yang Chen followed up with several courses.

Shanghai stayed for two days, and Yang Chen also went to Lin Jiayi's office halfway through, temporarily renting a one-story office building, and currently has about 100 main employees.

At the same time, Yang Chen also saw Resident Evil 2 that Lin Jiayi and they were developing, and then Yang Chen's face darkened.

A few days ago, when chatting in the video, the other party said that their development progress is very lagging behind, and they plan to make a more mysterious trailer to coax players over at the upcoming game conference.

But by the time Yang Chen came to watch their development progress, the outsourced motion capture materials were already being processed, and the satellite modeling had already begun to be processed.

Isn't the team just being formed?

The co-author of the metal gear project led by himself is still fishing?

After returning from Lin Jiayi's studio that day, Yang Chen fell into deep thought.

What to do!

Looking at the online players in the game community, discussing the news of the upcoming Nebula game conference.

Yang Chen opened the long-lost official blog, came to the window to take a night photo, and then returned to the study, and took out the admission notice of the advanced study class and took a photo in front of Wang Yaliang, who was reviewing the work log of the Starlight Road, with a confused expression.

"Further study, in metal gear I hope to be able to let people see something different."

Attitude!

He's going to show the attitude of a gamer, and he's going to show the players that he's not really fishing, but he's learning to develop a game that's amazing enough for the player.

The next day, when Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang went to the refresher class in the play to report, the players who woke up from their sleep saw Yang Chen's official blog with a confused expression.

Admission letter of the directing department of the drama advanced course?

What the heck!

Aren't you a game producer?

What are you doing to learn directing?

Jody? Not a game designer? Isn't Nebula Games a game company?

Then why did he suddenly learn to direct?

Players are confused.

"Surprised, Mr. Yang will not develop games in the future, but will shoot movies instead? What is the operation of learning directing knowledge? ”

"I'm confused, it's a little confusing, in order to make the metal gear better, is there any inevitable connection with going to learn to be a director?"

"I don't understand this operation!"

"What are the things that game makers are going to know? I also plan to step into the game industry after graduation and strive to be the second Mr. Yang, but now I have to be a director to make games? ”

Not only players, but also people in the game industry are also confused.

In NetDragon Games, Zhang Yida, who was developing VR autochess on swords and magic in the VR project team, was also stunned when he heard the news.

Did Yang Chen go to study directing?

As a top game producer in the industry, Zhang Yida has created many classic games, and even has a lot of fame not only in China, but also abroad.

Of course, this fame is not in the player base, but in the gaming industry.

For a number of games under Nebula Games, Zhang Yida has paid attention, and with the benefit of hindsight, the games currently being developed by Nebula Games are, in his opinion, although they are excellent, their own games as a whole basically do not have very amazing breakthroughs.

Whether it was Resident Evil, BioSurvival, or The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, after the analysis, he could understand some of Yang Chen's concepts and ideas when developing these games.

Sometimes an empirical game is not about how many breakthroughs it has caused in technology, but because it has thought of methods that no one has thought of before.

For example, when Yang Chen first developed the combination of Isaac and Octopath Traveler, he abandoned complete randomness and instead redefined the game of random element gameplay with values that were rigorous enough to make players feel random.

The combination of pixels and modern picture rendering technology has made a pioneering move.

But is there any necessary connection between learning directing skills and making games?

Zhang Yida, who doesn't know anything about the directing industry, is completely confused.

But it is precisely because of this confusion that Zhang Yida has a strong curiosity about Yang Chen's next work, Metal Gear.

is also extremely curious about Metal Gear, except for industry professionals such as Zhang Yida, more of them are ordinary players.

What kind of game is Metal Gear Solid?

This is the doubt in the hearts of countless players and Zhang Yida.

For the upcoming Saturday, Nebulas Games' game launch, everyone is full of anticipation.

They were already a little anxious to see what kind of bomb Metal Gear would throw.
