Soon, before you know it, it's April Fool's Day once a year, and when it comes, players will always think of running to Gu Feng Wanderer's side to have a good time.

Gu Feng's April Fool's Day four consecutive bombs made other followers embarrassed by the commotion operation is still a beautiful talk that players will bring up from time to time, although Gu Feng has not done anything on April Fool's Day in the past two years, but at this time, players still have some expectations.

"Kaede God! Look at what day it is today, don't you send two good news for everyone to be happy? ”

"Hey, we FPS players really don't love anyone, and no one is willing to make up a white lie to deceive us even on April Fool's Day, sad!"

"In other words, I have been playing for a month with the knife, I don't know if the technology has grown, the body is visible to the naked eye and has improved a lot, they all say that playing games is like smoking and drinking, a little pleasure, excessive injury, this is the first time I have seen this game of playing games for health."

"For the first time? Fitness Ring Adventure gives you a hammer! ”

"My body has improved, how can my skills not grow? I now go out with my father every day to play Tai Chi for more than an hour, and the game strength has grown a lot, which martial arts have you practiced? ”

"Five fowl plays."

"Uh...... Cattle Pie ......"

Gu Feng himself didn't know about the things that players were chatting about under Gu Feng Wanderer, and at this moment, he was participating in the Game Developer Summit held by the Game Committee in the Demon Capital.

】

In fact, there are some such meetings every year, and Gu Feng, Wen Meng and others have actually been invited to participate in some in recent years, and some of them have been pushed away because of work reasons.

The purpose of attending these conferences is also very pure, to communicate with industry peers, learn from some good experiences and ideas of others, and at the same time to understand how the technology in the outside world has been iteratively updated.

Gu Feng is very aware of the truth of being born in sorrow and dying in peace, although the original intention has become more and more the strength and temperament of the industry leader, but in the Internet industry, where technology is changing with each passing day, as long as one trend cannot keep up, and if you fall on a big heel, you may not be able to get up at all, and you will be abandoned by the ruthlessness of the times, and the mobile phone giant Nokia is a typical example.

High-rise buildings are not easy to rise, but it only takes overnight to overturn, and only with a sense of distress can they flourish for a long time.

According to past experience, most of the time held is in the second half of the year, and the reason why this year is so much earlier, held in early April, is mainly because of the new engine developed by the original intention.

Chuxin's new engine has received widespread attention from the outside world since the news was made public, this time, after all, it was Chuxin who made the news, and an industry giant like Chuxin who has to shake his feet in the industry casually, that is, he needs to think about it carefully by other small companies, studios and individuals who release a big fart at will.

It's like if Chuxin announces that the share of other games on the Chuxin platform will be increased by 0.01% one day, even if this increase looks like a joke, others will have to carefully see if Chuxin has a deeper intention behind this move.

If these concepts and ideas can really be realized, the future game pattern will inevitably change dramatically, and it is hard to say how much impact it will have on PC, mobile games, and consoles, but it is inevitable for VR.

Why? Because the foundation of the game's world architecture has changed, when the definite and rigid rules become uncertain and flexible, although the developers are still the creators of the world, they will no longer be omniscient and omnipotent, and after creating a world, they may be able to predict what the future of this world will become, but after a long time, no one can predict.

In addition, there is another obvious impact on the game, that is, the life of the game, just like the Elder Scrolls is open to players mod is a reason, when the key to innovation is handed over to the player, the player can create and change the world according to their own minds, no one can fully satisfy the hearts of others, but everyone knows their own minds, this approach can not only save the planning and spend a lot of energy to think about how to please the player, but also immediately extend the life of a game.

It can be said that once the application of this new engine is successful, it will not only change the direction of future games, but also the entire process of future game development.

In such a situation, no one else can afford not to pay attention to it.

And with so many pairs of eyes watching, the original intention did not sell off, did not make everyone wait for a long time, and not long after the engine was released, the first work developed based on the new engine followed.

The new engine won't work, okay? "Tianya Moon Knife" handed over the transcript is the best proof, only a week after the domestic launch, the number of downloads reached 4.23 million, the player retention rate is as high as a terrifying 71%, a week after the launch overseas, in this oriental theme game perennial in the Western market cold environment, "Tianya Moon Knife" is hard to set off a wave of Chinese kung fu frenzy overseas, including Europe and the United States and other parts of the world, as of today, "Tianya Moon Knife" has been online for less than a month, and the global download has exceeded 30 million, The number of daily active players has also risen to 19 million, creating a turnover of 3.8 billion.

These figures have already broken the all-time highs set by many VR games, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are phenomenal games.

Although if you just look at the flowing water, the current performance of "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" is not as good as "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", but you must know that the price of the Elder Scrolls is 328, which is a one-shot deal, and the main income of the Heavenly Knife still relies on monthly cards, fashion, and transaction fees, which are all long-term income, and it makes no sense to compare them with the Elder Scrolls.

And judging from the current reviews and popularity of Tiandao in the world, this game is obviously still in a period of continuous rise, although no one knows how long this period will last, but it has to be admitted that Tianya Mingyue Knife is very successful, and the first test of the new engine is very successful.

Now that the new engine has proven to be successful, viable, and has a bright future, it is imperative to convene an industry summit to discuss the impact of the new engine on the future of the industry.

The invitation letter to Gu Feng was sent by Li Zhenguo himself, after Gu Feng received the invitation letter, Li Zhenguo also called him in person and asked him to give a speech on the new engine at the summit, including some publicly available technical points, the future planning blueprint of the new engine, and the development trend of the game in the next three to five years.
