Chapter 222: Constant Tuning
"The Cthulhu Mythos will probably discover its unique charm due to the gradual rise of the gaming industry." Liu Neng said in his reply, "In fact, this so-called niche theme is gradually becoming more popular. I've been looking at the story of Warcraft lately, and although they claim to be original, they actually incorporate a lot of elements of the Cthulhu Mythos. Of course, this creative use is great, and it can gradually make Cthulhu accepted by the public. There are many differences between Chinese and Western myths and legends, but it is undeniable that this difference does not affect everyone's appreciation—it may be difficult to understand. I sometimes have a strong feeling that there is a big difference between the Eastern and Western definitions of God. But I really don't have much time to explore the differences, maybe there are a lot of philosophical understandings involved, which I can't touch at this stage. The stand-alone version of the game of Swordsman Love, in a sense, can be regarded as a reluctant success in Huaxia. But in the Western world, there may only be a very small number of players who will get a deep taste of the game. The vast majority of Western gamers may not be able to understand such a game and appreciate some of the Chinese definition of beauty. ”
"I'm looking forward to the next few months and what surprises Don't Starve will bring us when it actually launches. I think this will be an epoch-making game. In a month away, Apple's conference will take place. I've done a full tuning of the current COK, but I want to let you test this game specifically as a game for overseas Western, and I would like to ask if there is anything else that can be improved in this game under your trial experience. This game has been sent with an email attachment in the past, in the process of installation, you may need IBAL assistance, they are a relatively closed-source system, in the SDK docking I found that is a bit imperfect. I've contacted IBAL's Curry in advance and you can contact him with questions about the game's installation. ”
After Abel wrote back and said OK, it took almost two days for the feedback on the trial experience to finally come back.
In the document, Abel summarized more than 20 existing problems, and he roughly skimmed through them, most of which were problems with operating habits.
When it comes to the quality of the game itself, there are only two questions.
In the email: "I brought five people from the company over for a meeting and talked about it. These five players, plus me, are all more core players, and in terms of opinions on the game, they may be of little reference value to you. ”
"First of all, I have to praise this game for being the best online SLG game I've played in the last few years, and it's not just a compliment, it's the opinions of several other people. He has subverted our previous perception of SLG gameplay. For most of us, SLG games are really limited to a web game, with a very slow pace, like the German travian, and it can take a few weeks from the beginning of the game to start the first real player battle. Of course, I do not deny that in reality, a war with a huge project does require a long period of preparation, which may last more than ten years. ”
"But after all, we're playing games, not reality. Your cok, after entering the game, will actually have its first battle almost within the first day. I think it's great and players will be hooked in a very short period of time. When there is an interaction between players, whether it's an alliance or a war, I think that has made a lot of appeal to them. ”
"Regarding the layer-by-layer distribution of resource belts, I think this design is simply a stroke of genius. In previous SLG games, the system city was often the main point of contention, and they brought a lot of bonuses, which is very important. However, in COK, although it is true that the battle for the royal city is in the end, in fact, the player is fighting for the high-level resource belt, which is the resource. The battle for points in the past has become a competition for the opposite side, which is an epoch-making design. ”
"Abandon the military commander system, although I don't understand this approach at the moment, but it seems that after two days of play, this design does not have too many minus. This kind of design will make us, since it does not affect the experience, why is the training of military generals that we have been pursuing, what is it for? ”
"In the attached document, we listed some points that we felt were indeed influential after discussion, and most of them were not technical issues, but experience issues. I'm not sure if it's a difference in operating habits between East and West, or if it's due to the operating habits of the gaming platform, but I think it's a little bit of an impact. ”
After reading it, Liu Neng circled a few points, and then wrote out the revised opinions. All the rest was sent back to Liu Fei, and then said, "You can modify the above points of my remarks." I've taken a look at the other points, but there is no substitution. You can modify it as you see fit, and you can make your own ideas about the specific modification plan. After the revision is completed as soon as possible, and the full delivery test is over, we will be officially on the shelves in less than a month. ”
Regarding the matter of being a guest speaker at the IBAL press conference, he didn't say anything about anyone except Abel, everyone was more accustomed to it, thinking that he went to the United States some time ago just to investigate things about the riot company. Even Li Lizhen didn't know.
He was busy with another thing recently, Li Lizhen registered him for a driver's license test, and almost every day he had to spend time going to a driving school for two hours.
Of course, Liu Neng can drive, but in this world, he has always had no driver's license. Before graduating from university, I didn't take the exam, and then I didn't have time. So much so that he had a lot of money, but he couldn't buy a car to drive to and from work.
Li Lizhen picks him up every day, he doesn't care, but sometimes Li Lizhen can only take a taxi or bus or subway when he goes out, which is somewhat inconvenient.
At the end of last year, I set up a flag, saying that I wanted to get my driver's license, but it has been three months since the New Year, but there is still no movement, and even the registration has not started.
It was Li Lizhen who remembered this stubble and secretly registered him, which forced him to practice every day.
There is nothing wrong with going on the road, the problem is about the exam of subject one, for him in his previous life, it has been decades ago, and he has almost forgotten it. The first test of this subject is not 100% passed by old drivers. The problem he is struggling with now is here, it seems that if he doesn't read books, he really can't get by.
