Chapter 24 Extravagance
Ma Boyi, the editor of "Game New Horizons", is in charge of the "industry dynamics" section of the media, which is dedicated to publishing some news in the game industry. The most important thing in this part of the content is "fast" and "complete", do not miss important news, and can send the news out as soon as possible.
Of course, at the level of "Game New Horizons", it is almost impossible to get truly valuable first-hand information, and the most Ma Boyi does on weekdays is to reprint the news released by other media or sources, and simply translate and summarize some English news.
Today, Ma Boyi has opened several of his social accounts, as a qualified game media person, he basically pays attention to most of the social accounts in the game industry, and explores all kinds of things that happen in the game industry every day.
Ma Boyi's business ability is still very good, he has a wide range of friends and rich contacts, although he can't get that kind of exclusive first-hand news, but he can basically get the first batch of second-hand news, and the timeliness is very good.
During this time, the most concerned thing in the domestic game industry, in addition to the new online games and mobile games of several giants, is the "Three Kingdoms" of the future oasis.
Since "Three Kingdoms" opened for a week of early experience during the National Day holiday, most of the players, whether it is the media or those who follow the news, already know what kind of game "Three Kingdoms" is.
Ma Boyi naturally did not miss this early physical examination, although as a game media person, don't think about this kind of thing during the National Day holiday, but he still took a short time to experience the "Three Kingdoms" of the future oasis.
If he is asked to evaluate this game, Ma Boyi thinks that the future Oasis "Three Kingdoms" is one of the highest-quality ARPG games in recent years, and this game with PVE brushing as the main content is still very appetizing to him.
To briefly describe "Three Kingdoms", its later content is essentially an online game with a brush, a huge equipment library, and the use of various BUILDs allows players to always gain something. The main plot in the early stage is also very good, and the brush in the later stage will not be too boring and repetitive.
For example, the dynamic events made by Oasis in the future make Ma Boyi feel good, and with the lock-free action battle mode of "Three Kingdoms", it is quite interesting to cooperate with other players to complete tasks. Compared with other brush games, the dynamic world of "Three Kingdoms" made him feel bright.
All kinds of large-scale events involving hundreds of people and lasting several days made him feel as if he was in the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms.
During this period of time embodied in advance, the future oasis was only open to such large-scale events, which was a siege battle. Unfortunately, until the end of the experience, the players did not complete this large-scale event, and when the server was closed, the players only broke through the outer city of the city, not the inner city.
Although the seven-day early experience is open, it is still slightly reserved, but with this experience, Ma Boyi is looking forward to "Three Kingdoms" even more.
This kind of expectation is completely the expectation of a player who wants to play a game, if Ma Boyi is asked to score, if it is ten points, "Three Kingdoms" has at least 8.5 points.
If Future Oasis shows an aura of making games in "Shadow Secrets", then in "Three Kingdoms", they show their mature side. This maturation is not a regression, but a precipitation.
Of course, the hidden concerns of "Three Kingdoms" are also obvious, such as the balance of values, such as ranking-related content. It depends on the ability of the future Oasis to adjust after the release.
In short, for Ma Boyi, "Three Kingdoms" is on his must-play list, and he also plans to write a game review, even if it can't be sent out in the name of the media, but also in his personal name.
He is happy that there is also a good game company in the country, and there are no signs of degeneration.
According to professional habits, Ma Boyi first browsed some of the news that happened today, selected a few valuable ones to reprint first, and if it was English, he simply translated it himself, his English level was good, and there was no problem in translating this kind of short message.
This period of time is the peak period for foreign games to be listed,There are many games listed at the same time as "Three Kingdoms", Ma Boyi is to classify "Three Kingdoms" as a stand-alone game, although "Three Kingdoms" and many games now are real online games that are networked throughout the whole process, but the difference between them and domestic online games is still quite big.
One of the biggest games should be the new work of Call of Duty, which will be released on the first Friday of November, on all platforms, and exclusive to the PC version of Battle.net, which is probably one of the last masterpieces of this generation of console platforms.
The Call of Duty brand is still very hard, and tens of millions of sales are expected, compared to it, the new IP of "Three Kingdoms" is a younger brother.
Although the background of the game "Three Kingdoms" is very famous, this game is a real new IP.
Ma Boyi also learned about the views of overseas players on "Three Kingdoms" during this time, and also inquired about the overseas pre-sale sales of "Three Kingdoms" from Future Oasis, and what surprised him was that after early experience, the overseas pre-sale sales of the multilingual version of "Three Kingdoms" have skyrocketed, and it is about to exceed domestic sales.
This is an interesting phenomenon, when the actual sales of "Three Kingdoms" come out, Ma Boyi plans to write an article on this part, analyze the current situation of the world game market, and by the way, give the future oasis a few titles such as "cultural export pioneer".
At this time, Ma Boyi casually clicked on the official website of Future Oasis to see if there was any new content. In the future, Oasis news will always be prioritized on the official website and in the community, which is also an aspect he focuses on.
When Ma Boyi accidentally clicked on the recruitment interface on the official website and was about to close it, he found some problems.
The recruitment interface of Future Oasis is also a regular part of the work, and it is possible to guess the dynamics of a game company based on changes in the recruitment content.
He found out how the list of recruitment needs was so long. The previous large-scale recruitment was the time when the three-country project team was established.
Could it be that the Oasis will soon make another big move in the future? Why wasn't there any news before?
Ma Boyi glanced at the recruitment list and gasped.
I'm good, there are at least more than fifty positions here, and I've never been so generous before.
Ma Boyi opened several groups in the game industry, and sure enough, some people in them discovered that Oasis in the future suddenly released dozens of positions to recruit game developers, and they were all discussed.
With such a big spend, what does Oasis want to do in the future?
