Chapter 145: The Interviewee Who Gives Visitors a Headache
"You're here to interview me, not to interview my buildings here, just take a few photos when you leave, let's continue to talk about games."
Huang Anmin's voice recorder was raised in his hand, and his expression must be very wonderful now. He turned off the recorder and asked Liu Neng, "Boss Liu, do you really want me to put the content of the chat I just posted in the interview article?" ”
Huang Anmin felt that this was already a warning, and if these contents were really written, I am afraid that Liu Neng and his game empire would really collapse in an instant. It is true that the editors have a certain ability, and they hope that some explosive articles can attract attention, but in the professionalism of the industry, he feels that it is necessary to be serious and not so aggressive.
"Just write like this, brother, aren't you just worried that I will become the target of public criticism?"
"You know you still say that?"
"If you're worried about that kind of thing, you might as well play the game with your heart, right? 3S is honest and groundbreaking, which we have to admit; But it is also necessary to be able to see its limitations**** garbage is garbage, although the first to eat crabs, but accidentally treat the shrimp as crabs, this kind of thing may not be impossible to happen. ”
Huang Anmin had a headache and didn't know how to continue this interview, so he could only open the recorder and continue to ask, "Boss Liu thinks 3S is not good, what are the specific reasons?" ”
"I've written the reasons clearly enough in the articles on the Internet, but that's not all the reason for his rubbish......"
"Then I'll ask in a different way, now it's circulating on the Internet, you also used the map editor of "Warcraft 2" to make a map, what do you think is the advantage of your game map compared with 3S?" Huang Anmin's words gradually became sharper. For a moment, he was a little dissatisfied with the young man in front of him who was talking wildly at a young age, and if this interview was a lesson, it might not be a good thing for him to be a humble person.
Liu Neng thought for a while, opened his hands to Huang, and Huang was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?" ”
"I'm going to talk about this from five points."
"Balanced, social, spectatory, competitive and entertaining."
Huang Anmin listened carefully and put forward a rebuttal, "The five points you said, it seems that 3S can also do it." ”
"What he did was a joke." Liu Neng sneered, "Aside from the rest, they can't do it to the extreme in the first point alone." ”
"How can there be so many games that can be extreme? And as far as I know, the author of this map is actually a relatively loose team, but three or five people, shouldn't be so harsh on them, right? ”
Liu Neng shook his head, "Of course not." Like my map dota...... Yes, my map is called Dota, and it's completely my own work, but I'm confident that it's much better than the three or five of them. If it's not a little more demanding, how can the game evolve and improve? After all, there must always be some people who are at the forefront of the times to guide the development of this industry. ”
Huang Anmin smashed his mouth, "Are you talking a little big?" ”
"Is it big?" Liu Neng laughed, "I don't think it's big, at least it's not big at all now, and this sentence may be expressed in another way in the future, which will make people feel that the words are bigger." Interestingly, the vast majority of people just think I'm talking big, but the truth is often in the hands of a few. ”
"Boss Liu is undoubtedly a successful person now, but I think there is sometimes a lot of accident in the game industry, even if a game is perfect, it may not be able to capture the hearts of players. This kind of thing has been proven countless times, even if it is a foreign triple-A masterpiece, many times players don't buy it, don't they? ”
Regarding this, Liu Neng talked eloquently, "The essence of the game is to be fun enough. We can't be too superstitious about foreign game products and think that what they make is good; This is very evident in 3S; Domestic game producers can also make fun games. Those so-called 3A masterpieces, equivalent to partial, pay too much attention to the picture, special effects, and narrative, and ignore the essence of the game, fun, is the magic weapon of the game. ”
"You've convinced me a bit, but I still can't think of the idea that a game is a hundred times more fun than another, there's no quantifiable standard at all, is it?"
"If you want to quantify, it's actually very simple, look at the future, when my map is released, after entering the normal platform period, the number of players in 3S and DotA, this is the best quantitative standard. At this point, it's only normal for me to say that DotA is 10,000 times more fun than 3S. ”
"Why did Boss Liu use the editor to make a map? We all know that Boss Liu is a game producer, and now he has many games in development at the same time, but you are making a loading map for other companies' games that have nothing to do with the current game, why is that? ”
"Although there has just been a wave of foreign games, it must be said that the storm company is still very conscientious, and this map editor is also very interesting, although it seems to be just making a map, but the powerful functions make different game maps like a completely different game; This is something I need to learn and acknowledge its strengths with an open mind. ”
"As for why I made the dota map, it is deeply related to my future vision, as we all know, after I made DotA, the name and logo of this map belong to me, and in the future I will make a series of games with DotA as the core, if we can, we are even willing to negotiate with Storm to buy and use the IP and character image of their Warcraft series......"
"Can you tell us more about this idea?" Huang Anmin became interested and asked hurriedly.
Liu Neng shook his head, "No, keep it secret." ”
Huang Anmin was suddenly a little deflated, "There are still two last questions left to ask Boss Liu......
"Loved ......"
“……? What the? ”
"Nothing, you ask."
"May I ask what is your relationship with the big star Ms. Li Lizhen?"
"Such a gossip question, you are an editor of a game website would be interested? Why don't you talk about something else? ”
"Isn't it convenient to say?"
"It's convenient, but I can't say it until I get Li Lizhen's permission. I say that, you understand, right? ”
Huang Anmin made a gesture that I understand, and then gave him a thumbs up, praising his awesomeness.
"Last question, will your company do anything in the next year?"
Liu Neng smiled, "Your problem is a big one, I can talk about it briefly......"
