475 Is this a game? PART.1
In the afternoon, the sky was slightly overcast, with heavy clouds obscuring the sun, and one wondered if it was about to rain heavily.
Walking on the streets near Hollywood, looking at the huge "HOLLYWOOD" sign on the hillside, Zhao Nuo sighed a little depressed:
"My sister is really a stupid person, how can there be any stars here."
Hearing that he was coming to Los Angeles, Jian Tong specially instructed him several times that he must come to Hollywood for a stroll, saying that he was likely to meet a big star on the street, and he could bring some autographs or something back to her when the time came.
Although Zhao Nuo knew that this kind of thing was unlikely to happen, he still listened to his sister's words and took the time to come over and take a look.
As for the results...... Naturally, it was no different from what I expected, and I couldn't even see the shadow of a star.
If you think about it on your toes, you can run into movie stars just by hanging out here, and the paparazzi won't have to go to great lengths to squat around waiting for an opportunity to take a sneak peek - just stay here.
However, when he passed by some cars on the side of the road, he seemed to really see the bright light of the camera lens inside through the glass......
Standing on the side of the road, I was about to take a taxi back when my phone rang suddenly. Zhao Nuo, who felt that he was wasting time, picked up the phone and asked angrily: "Hey?" β
"Boss, I'm Blake." Blake's voice came from the other end of the phone, who was the person in charge of the Viper booth at E3.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Nuo stared at the clouds in the sky that looked a bit like a pig's head and asked.
"You'd better come here." Blake's voice sounded like he was angry, and he didn't know what was going on, and he could faintly hear some laughter and indistinct arguments.
Before he could ask what was going on, Blake had already hung up the phone. Zhao Nuo stopped a taxi, sat in the car and said to the driver with a beard:
"Go to the International Convention and Exhibition Center."
ββββββββββ
Blake was in a bad mood at this time.
Although the booth was very busy, it was not what made him feel bad, and what really made him depressed was that while he was busy setting up the booth, he met his "old colleague" who used to work on "The Executioner" at AC Company. β
"Yo, Blake, are you still making games? It's unexpected. Standing in front of him, a flat-haired man wearing vulgar graffiti waved at Blake.
"What?" Blake glanced at the ill-intentioned other party, this guy was as annoying as ever, both in the past and in the present.
"Haven't you heard? After you left AC Corporation, the boss gave us the "Executioner" brand. Sam's bastard this time, he shouldn't be proud, right? The flat-headed man showed a lewd smile on his face, which can be said to have brought the phrase "cheap and good" into full play.
ββ¦β¦ What does that have to do with me? Blake lowered his voice.
ββIt's impossible to say that you don't have feelings for "The Executioner", after all, it was the first game to be released for public sale by the "Execution Team", and in order to make the bloody action game, the people of the Execution Team spent many sleepless nights together.
However, in the face of this damn guy, Blake didn't want to show weakness at all.
As a large-scale action game, although the main creator of "The Executioner" is the execution team, there are also other production groups to join in and carry out some post-production zuΓ² and the like, which is simply "down".
And the man who is now standing in front of him and smiling strangely is a member of the zuΓ² group named "Triumph", who collaborated with the execution team to make "The Executioner" at that time.
I still remember that when I was making "The Executioner", this tiresome man was always passive and slacking off, chattering about completely useless opinions. The leader of the execution team, Sam. Quint, every time, coldly said "don't talk nonsense", directly interrupting the person's speech. But now......
It's like a dog that has finally snatched a bone, and this guy who can only talk nonsense has finally begun to raise his toes.
"Our Executioner 2 is about to be exhibited at this year's E3, do you want to try it out?" The flat-headed man said proudly, his head almost tilted up to the sky.
ββ¦β¦β
Blake was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.
ββEven if he felt a little "weak", he did want to see what "Executioner 2" released by AC Company would look like after the execution team left.
As far as he knows, there are many games that continue to develop sequels after the founder leaves, and the company that is more familiar with this kind of thing is CAPCOM, whether it is "Resident Evil" or "Devil May Cry", they are all games that continue to develop sequels after the founder leaves.
After the original cast of the game is gone, the sequel continues to be developed. Although there are occasionally better and better storage zΓ i, but most of these games have a gap compared to the original, and there have even been scum works that completely smash the signboard.
What will Executioner 2 look like?
Even before he saw the game, there was already a vague sense of foreboding looming over Blake.
ββIf it had been developed by the garbage group called Triumph, the quality of Executioner 2 would not have been much better. It may even completely destroy the "executioner", which has just been erected and is not yet too solid.
Even if the brand of "The Executioner" is no longer in the hands of the execution team, he doesn't want to see this game, which was originally well-received, become a garbage work that everyone scolds.
The original Executioner was a huge hit after its release, and apart from the fact that the game was too difficult and bloody in some places, causing some controversy, the rest of the content was completely impeccable, and even made it into last year's "Best Action Game" selection.
Because of this, there are many players today who have a lot of expectations for "Executioner 2". And now......
"This is it, you can try it out, and then tell me what you think."
The flat-headed man's voice brought Blake back to his senses, and he found himself at the AC booth, which was not too big, but compared to the shabby booth of the Viper, the decoration was luxurious.
Sitting in front of a computer in the trial area inside the booth, looking at the scarlet title of "Executioner 2" on the screen, Blake wiped the sweat from his forehead a little nervously, and clicked on the "NEW-GAME" option nervously.
A minute later, he realized that his previous foreboding had come true. R1152
