The media have this characteristic, they don't skimp on praise for any game that is good enough, and can describe its excellence from all sorts of tricky angles, and they are professional in playing with words; I will not give up the opportunity to ridicule and criticize those works that are very disappointing.

Sometimes there are games that are not so bad in themselves, but when compared to great opponents, they can easily become jokes.

Just like this summer, "Getaway" and its opponents, other types of games are okay, the same RPGs or ARPGs, such as the ARPG "Patronus: Hero Race" released on June 3, with a comprehensive Metacritic media score of 55; The RPG game "Legend of the North 3: Bondage of the Dynasty" on June 21 has a rating of 61; and "Transformers: Cybertron Wars", which is also Activision's own, was released on June 22 with a rating of 75...... The first two are indeed self-improving, but the "Transformers" part is indeed suppressed by the "enemy".

In the light of "Getaway", they are dimmed.

"All game makers should re-examine themselves in the future, and then refer to Fisoa's games before determining when the game will be released. It may not be so easy to get ahead, but it is not difficult to push back, and it may bring some losses, but it is more likely to lose less than to fight Pasca. - Gamereactor, one of Europe's most widely circulated game magazines from Copenhagen, Denmark.

When the media was still struggling to find new words, he once said on the GameFAQs forum that he casually mentioned "Let's go to China." The players who were deeply shocked by the exotic scenery shown in the game were not just talking. This kind of thing is easier to carry out as long as someone takes the lead in earnest, and they begin to put their ideas into action.

It is not easy for Chinese to go abroad, before the world was so big I want to see the contradiction with the shyness in the pocket, with the increase of national strength, the improvement of people's income and living standards, now for many people, has been transformed into the contradiction between the people going to sea to buy and feed pigeons and our passports are not very powerful.

In 2010, the Chinese passport visa-free countries ...... There are 19 of them.

For example, Aruba, Dominica, Nepal, Tuvalu, Vanyutu, Samoa...... Not Samoyed, these countries.

Isn't it all small countries that you haven't heard much about......

It also includes countries like Andorra, which are visa-free for the whole world, and in their vast territory of 468 square kilometers, there is no airport at all, so you can only enter the country through France or Spain...... France and Spain require visas.

Ah, and Syria, I dare to be visa-free, do you dare to come and travel?

The global capacity of Chinese passports is almost equivalent to that of Rwanda and Cameroon......

Relatively speaking, Americans can travel to more than 180 countries and regions around the world visa-free or visa-on-arrival, but it is not easy for them to come to China.

It takes a week for Chinese citizens to get a Japanese visa, and 48 hours to get a French visa, but it takes a month for Americans to come to China.

They will need to apply for an L tourist visa, provide an invitation letter from an individual or organization, prove that they have money to spend on the trip, and may also provide airfare, bus tickets and ferry tickets for where to go after leaving China.

If there is no invitation letter from the unit, and the personal invitation letter often does not count, then you have to find a travel agency or agency to help you issue relevant certificates, which will cost thousands of dollars.

After the group of like-minded players hooked up, they began their own visa journey, and then made travel plans, including checking the corresponding real-life Chinese scenes in the game, the route after arriving in China, food and accommodation, and booking a hotel in advance.

They set up a special team, a voluntary civil society organization, although there are not many of them now.

The name is inspired by Facebook, and they call it Fishlook...... The whole team has now gathered 34 fans, some of whom are travel enthusiasts themselves, and some are just simple otaku otaku...... The biggest thing they have in common is their extreme obsession with the gaming landscape and Fisoa as a company.

The first trip organized by the team will be in July, of course, not everyone will participate this time, there are already 16 members who have decided to go to China together in July, and 4 people have said that they are considering it, or are going through the leave process, and it depends on whether the leader can approve it.

They also made special team t-shirts, baseball caps, and logos for the herring network, the getaway, and their own team.

They couldn't stay in China for too long, so the route definitely couldn't cover the places that the art team of Qingyu Network had walked at that time, so they could only pick out the essence of it, starting from the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, then going to the Mongolian grassland to the northwest desert, and finally ending in Funan, as well as the R&D headquarters of Qingyu Network.

It was a pilgrimage for them.

They even opened their own official Facebook page, inviting all like-minded people who like the company "Qingyu Network" and the game "Getaway" to join the team, and will organize the team's travel plans in batches from time to time.

……

On social media, "Getaway" has also become a hot topic and traffic darling of the new generation. In this game, players, especially those who have not "seen the world" abroad, have too many topics that they want to share and communicate.

"[Screenshot], is this China's panda? I seem to have seen them in videos before...... Are they really like that? ”

Pandas have also appeared in many other domestic games, which are more in online games, as some high-level paid mounts and the like, increasing attributes such as character attack and defense blood, after all, this guy has also been described as an ancient beast, in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas? Zhongshan Sutra? Guo Hongnong, a Jin person, notes: "The mountain has nine folds, out of the woods, like a bear and black and white, and also eats copper and iron." ”

Translated into the vernacular, it probably means, this guy eats iron, a thief, a slap down, you may die.

But the panda in the getaway ...... It's completely as a cute thing.,Some players did find a small number of panda groups in the mountains in the south of the game.,They sleep every day in addition to eating bamboo.,Obviously there are limbs that are not good at walking.,You don't have to climb if you can roll.。

It's not afraid of life at all, when players get closer, if they're lucky, they'll encounter one or two running over and hugging their thighs, looking like they'll never let go, and when they're hugged by pandas, the player's actions are more difficult, and the movement speed will become very slow...... Of course, you can jump with a heart and shake them off.

"Yes, that's pandas, I went to the zoo to see them, and they are very rare animals, only in China."

"They're so cute...... I played with them for a day in the game, I mean a day in the game, are they a type of bear? Why don't they eat meat, I only see them eating bamboo. ”

There are also players who are interested in the soundtrack in the game: "Does anyone know what the instrument used in the prelude in the BGM of the old turtle in the game finally died?" It's very loud, but it's full of sad feelings. ”

The player also took a screenshot of the recording and posted it on Facebook for clarification.

However, this kind of question can be answered by very few American players, and finally a Chinese student solved her confusion: "This is a traditional Chinese national wind instrument, called suona, with a rich timbre, vigorous and powerful, and is often used on occasions of great joy or great sorrow." ”

Can this instrument still be used in joyful occasions? It's hard for me to imagine...... I felt the urge to cry just by hearing it. ”

"Yes, there are places in China where you can get married."

"Okay...... Terrible. ”

There are also those cutscenes in the game, which are regarded by players and the press as exemplary examples of game footage.

"For the game producer who understands the camera and editing the most, we used to think that Hideo Kojima was the best guy, but now it seems that there is another player in the field who can compete with him, Pasca. Even though it's an open world, the real-time rendered cutscenes interspersed with it still give me a sense of cinematic immersion. The use of camera is undoubtedly Hollywood-quality, and it doesn't make you feel lengthy and dragged, and other gamemakers should really take a look at it, and they can learn more than just gameplay. - Gamepro, a video game website and magazine in San Francisco, USA, rated 100/100.

Players are much more detailed than the media, and how long has it been on sale, and someone on the Internet has already taken a large number of in-game cutscenes, taken out a certain frame, and then analyzed to everyone how the composition conforms to the golden ratio, and how the architecture, the characters and nature form a beautiful and harmonious picture moment.

Or take a clip to explain to the players how this paragraph uses a classic Hollywood narrative structure, and forms a corresponding relationship with the previous plot, so that the inner emotions of the protagonist and the player follow the changes.

It's really a lot of work.

After reading these interpretations, many players corresponded to their feelings at the time, and then suddenly realized that this was the case.

The depth of this game is perhaps much deeper than it seems right now.

They're all digging little by little for the game, something worth digging.

……

Ye Shenxi was also very busy during this time, after the first signing in the United States, he had to run elsewhere, went to London, England, Berlin, Germany, and Paris, France to do the same activities, and then left Europe and went to Brazil, Australia, and then returned to Asia.

When I returned to Asia, I also ran to Japan first, and the last stop before returning to the mainland was Xiangjiang.

Considering Pasca's eerie popularity as a game producer, yes, he's more of an entertainment star, and Activision has created a campaign for him like the global premiere of the movie. He didn't appear in one place, and his popularity among local players, Activision found that it was even higher than he expected, and Ye Shenxi himself didn't expect it.

Going to the Pasca signing is a very fashionable thing among players, and the fan culture is actually common to both the traditional entertainment industry and this emerging digital entertainment. And in modern times, with the development of social software, the distance between celebrities and fans has also been much closer than in previous years.

Of course, Activision also has a role to play behind it, stars in the traditional entertainment industry need to rely on packaging, and so do game producers, not to mention that Ye Shenxi is so well packaged, young, handsome, rich, and an emerging game empire, using his own works to create a new era in the game field.

Even Ye Shenxi himself has a vague sense of his positioning in this wave of publicity activities.

Especially in Japan, at one of their largest retail stores, the TSUTAYA store in Shibuya, Ye Shenxi arrived in a crowd even more crowded than the launch ceremony in Hollywood, USA. And female players also occupy a considerable proportion, they hold hands, and when they see Ye Shenxi appear, they scream and jump, and then shout that Ye Shenxi really can't understand Japanese.

Like most Chinese, his knowledge of Japanese comes only from a limited number of Japanese audio and video products, which is relatively limited and not widely applicable.

I can only sigh that it is worthy of being one of the leaders of Asian entertainment culture, and people are professional in chasing stars.

Not only the game media, but also the traditional media have also reported a lot on Ye Shenxi's self-guided tour of the world, which is more valuable than the signing of ordinary singers and movie stars. Because Ye Shenxi will definitely still be labeled as a game, the main interpretation and analysis is the rise of the digital entertainment industry, and the impact on the traditional entertainment field, or even beyond.

Games have long ceased to be a subculture, and in fact, every year, global game sales, since last year, have surpassed the total box office of all films worldwide.

……

Xiangjiang is a little more restrained than the Japanese side, but there are still a lot of people here.

The people of Xiangjiang have not seen much of the battle of game producers holding signing meetings, several Hong Kong TV stations want TVB and ATV, and Phoenix Satellite TV also sent reporters to the scene for real-time news broadcasts.

In Phoenix Satellite TV's noon news, the background of the camera is the scene of the signing meeting, and you can see the posters and venue layout, but Ye Shenxi naturally can't see it, he is drowned in the enthusiastic crowd of players.

The reporter of Phoenix Satellite TV interviewed a young man with a big back hair, and the beautiful female reporter conducted the interview in Mandarin: "Hello, can I delay you for a while?" ”

"The mud is good, the mud is good." The young man saw the station logo of Phoenix Satellite TV and also used Mandarin, but the pronunciation was more bumpy, so he could still hear it in Chinese.

The female reporter pointed to the game disc that Ye Shenxi had signed in his hand: "You have already got the signature?" ”

"Yes."

"What do you call it?"

"Just sue me pretty boy."

"Hui Zai, have you already played Getaway?"

"Yes, I've cleared the customs even more."

"What do you think of the game? He's now sold over 10 million units worldwide, do you think it's worth it? How did you feel after beating the game? ”

"Wow,The system of the game gold is too classic.,A new experience of the boat I haven't saved.。 I believe that many people have the same idea as me, squeeze to experience three times, and the inside will do the same as me, and love the elephant sister game. ”
