511 COUNTDOWN PART.2
Staring at the eggshell cracked egg in Zhao Nuo's hand for two seconds, the Black Hand Wizard took a deep breath, and then-
"Your kid was infected by the boss." The diminutive merchant shook his head and sighed, looking like he hated iron but not steel.
"No, I'm serious." Zhao Nuo explained seriously:
"From the very beginning, we were aiming to 'build a complete world', so in the process of development, we also developed multiple game modes at the same time, but the importance of these game modes is also different."
"I probably know what you're trying to say, but it has something to do with the eggs?" The Black Hand frowned slightly.
After his question, Zhao Nuo played with the egg in his hand and continued: "In these modes, parts such as the main story, house building system and 'high-speed dungeon' are essential, like the yolk of an egg, these contents are the key to the game. β
"Content similar to wild bosses, side plots, and random events is like the egg whites of eggs, which are relatively minor but also indispensable."
"There are also additional parts that are similar to 'shopping mode', which are actually like eggshells. For these game modes, we can put them aside for a while and add them to the game as later add-ons instead of the initial release. β
"You mean, severing the game modes currently in development, leaving the irrelevant content for the back burner, and releasing a more streamlined version first?" Hearing this, the Black Hand finally understood.
"That's right." Zhao Nuo nodded immediately: "To hell with the 'shopping mode', this kind of gameplay is good to add as additional content when the player has nothing to do in the later stages of the game, everyone is playing equipment and completing the plot in the early stage, how can you take the girl at home shopping?" β
"I see, I see." The Black Hand had a clear expression.
ββAlthough many of the game's additional modes have been made, it is still a relatively original version, and there are still a lot of bugs in it. If you put these additional modes aside for a moment and focus on the most important ones. Maybe it's really possible to make a "full version" that only includes the most important game modes before November, and then go straight to the sale!
After the release of this version, they will have a few more months to modify and refine the additional modes they have previously developed, and then sell them again as DLC for the game.
In this way, Hell Capital will not only make money twice, but will also leave a good impression on the minds of players: imagine that after a few months of playing and starting to get a little bored, they find that the game has a "new" mode. It can not only stimulate the player's enthusiasm for the game, but also achieve the effect of extending the life of the game.
"Okay, this does, so let's do it."
After learning of Zhao Nuo's thoughts, the black hand soldier, who was still opposed, finally nodded in agreement.
"Ha, thank you." Zhao Nuo said to Zhou Yan, who had already started to continue playing the game.
Then, the egg in his hand was snatched away by the greedy Xia Xiaoling.

After the strategy was determined, the development plan of the Hellfire Entertainment headquarters also underwent major changes:
Similar to GALGAME, the "shopping mode" that can increase the favorability of the witch in the house is temporarily put into the cold palace. Only the "medieval" model of remodeling, which allowed the entire city to be rebuilt, was left in the "Middle Ages", and the other two were also suspended. All the people who were originally in charge of these models were transferred to the production team that developed the main contents.
Due to the tilt of the center of gravity of the system, and the fact that the execution team that developed the "heresy trial mode" also added the main content system, the speed of the production of "Hell Capital" has been raised by a notch compared to before, and in the words of "RPG Demon", "It's like riding a roller coaster!" β
"We might even be able to release it before November!" Looking at the hot scene inside the company, the face of the black hand showed the same obscene smile as usual.
"yes, yes." Zhao Nuo patted the shoulder of the Black Hand Soldier and said "seriously": "The Cologne Game Show will be handed over to you." β
Games Cologne in August is about to begin, thanks to Sam. Quint is still making games and can't get out, and Zhao Nuo himself can't leave for some "personal reasons", and the task of participating in the Cologne Game Show this time was also handed over to the Black Hand. And this profiteer, who is very good at "selling", although he is still in China, has long been eager to try:
"Leave it to me, I'll make a big news."
"What's the big news? Do you want to talk and laugh with Wallace in Germany? Zhao Nuo teased casually.
"Say no more, we're going to be harmonized." The smile on the Black Hand's face vanished.
After the short businessman left, he sat in his office, looking at the table showing the game progress on the computer screen, Zhao Nuo was also full of emotion for a while, and even had a feeling of "like a world away".
Less than a year ago, Xia Xiaoling's "game company" has now become a large-scale game development organization with hundreds of people. And now they are developing a large-scale sandbox game that will be directly released in the European and American markets, and may be able to set a "record for domestic games sold abroad"!
Thinking that "Hell Capital" will be officially released in less than three months, Zhao Nuo quietly clenched his fists, and a slight smile appeared on his thin cheeks.
For him, every time a game is about to be released, it is the most tense and exciting time.
The game produced by Hellfire Entertainment is not a shoddy product in order to "make a quick profit", but a collection of the efforts of these avid game lovers within the company, more like a "child" belonging to everyone in the company.
The previous qiΔ was all about making this child who belonged to them "grow up healthily". And the moment the game is released, it's time to escort this child to her own shining stage!
All the previous efforts are about to be put into practice. Will this game, which has brought together all the hard work of hundreds of game lovers, succeed or fail miserably?
While thinking about it, Zhao Nuo looked at the dusk sky outside the window:
"Whether it's success or failure, I won't regret it." R1152
