[Red Dead Redemption carries the old will and opens up a new path!] 】

[The designer who was picked up by the player remembered his original intention, he is worthy of himself and the player! ] 】

[Is the price of 258 and the production cost exaggerated?] 】

[Is sprouting really not profitable? 】

……

When the price was announced, the overwhelming marketing account began to market the news about Red Dead Redemption, and everyone didn't say whether the game was good or bad, right or wrong, because that person almost didn't make mistakes.

When the production cost was made public, some outsiders shouted that it was impossible.

People don't play games, but they have also heard of the so-called 3A, in the international rating standards, the letters A to E are often used to rate things, "A" stands for the best, and the three "A" as the name suggests are almost the top.

Every time there is an A, it means that the thing is very prominent in a certain aspect.

As for which three "A's" are referred to, they are traditionally referred to as "A lot of money", "A lot of resources", and "A lot of time"

To put it simply, the development cost of the game is high, the development cycle is long, and the resources consumed are high.

This is a common phrase in general, as no professional department has a prescriptive standard for the resources and time to be consumed.

The term "3A" seems to be more of a concept than an official standard in other fields.

After the old thief started making games, the first thing he broke was the public's traditional perception of production time, in the process of design, is the production cycle very long?

Perhaps compared to this, design consumption takes far less time and money than intermediate thinking.

Designers often spend a lot of time tweaking the original art model in the game, and a lot of effort is spent tweaking the game's backstory.

But when you think clearly, the game making process is much faster.

Everyone only felt that the old thief had something new at any time, as if there would never be a day when his thoughts would dry up.

In the past, the old thief broke the perception that it takes a lot of time in the "3A", and now he has redefined a lot of money.

The amount of money spent is certain, and a small number of people are just wondering, is it really that much spent?

From the beginning of making games to the present, there are not a few 3A productions, but this is the only case of a game that costs so much.

Outsiders are still speculating about whether the sprout really spent so much, but the internal staff knows that the old thief really spent this number on this game.

Because in a series of publicity of Sprout Games, there is an unwritten rule, that is, you can't tell lies.

So in the bud to make the game to now, players are envious of the promotional screen and graphic details given by the sprout, and after entering the game, they are even more amazed that this is just the norm in the game, just a corner of the random display.

Therefore, in the follow-up propaganda production, everyone's propaganda pictures can only use real machines, and the promotional content must also be real.

Sprout has been doing the game for so long, and has never broken this rule, and the project team behind it will not break the rule for so long.

"Boss, can we spend that much on our next game?" At the budding daily meeting, after everyone summarized the progress of the work, one person glanced at Wang Tao who was sitting on the side, and looked at Ye Feng with his eyes.

"If the project that everyone is responsible for needs to consume this money, the sprout will not be stingy." Ye Feng looked at these project leaders with a smile, and didn't care about the chatter after the meeting.

Sprout is never a company that only knows how to report on the progress of the work, and after the regular meeting, everyone will stay in the office and brag about how awesome the game of their project is, and what has happened recently.

It's like an after-dinner chatter, everything seems so natural.

The light in the conference room was bright, and Wang Tao sat a little closer to Ye Feng, he couldn't take his eyes off the front and didn't seem to care about what others said.

Wang Tao straightened his neckline, "Yes, the boss is not reluctant to give, if everyone can guarantee that you can earn back the money after spending so much money, then it doesn't matter how much you spend." ”

"Someone feels like they're going to make it back." There was a strange sound of yin and yang from the other direction.

It's not that they don't want to spend money, it's that they have too many people under them.

Although there will be no punishment for not earning it back, I am responsible for the employees of my own department, and the game that I spent so long to make, just waiting for a huge bonus after the release, ended up in vain.

"Naturally, you can earn it back." Wang Tao snorted lightly, "This is an epoch-making work!" ”

Ye Feng stopped everyone's fight, "There are some games that we must do, and sometimes it's not a matter of profitability. ”

"Open world, degree of freedom, has become the future of the evolution of the game, players are no longer satisfied with the linear, manufacturer-designed game route, when we make a huge game world, players will want to explore, to do something in the world." Although it is also interesting to have a linear game journey that is routed by the manufacturer, there will always be other little fun in the game.

"In the future, we will also have other games, and our future should be the sea of stars." Ye Feng said and looked at the project leader sitting below.

"I have a new project here, and I don't know which project team to hand it over to for the time being, so let's take over the project first after the game in the hands of the project team is completed."

As soon as the words fell, Wang Tao looked at Ye Feng in a little stunned, didn't he just give himself a 'Give Him Love 5'?

Now there's something new to prepare?!

Although I have long known that the old thief's things are inexhaustible, when I saw that the old thief had a new plan, I was still a little jealous in my heart.

The conference room became dead silent for a moment, and several project leaders first glanced at a few 'opponents' next to them, and in the regular meeting report just now, everyone said that the project in their hands was about to end.

"Brothers, we've been working together for so long, why don't you give me this opportunity?"

"I'm almost done with this project, the big guys won't want to fight with me, right?"

"Then it's better than time, see who finishes it first, and whoever will make this game."

"But boss, what kind of game is this?"

……

Everyone knows very well that the games that Ye Feng can get and tell everyone on the bright side are almost all good games.

But the sprout has not been broken so far, and the game is just that.

"A new game called No Man's Sky."

"Listen to the name, everyone should know what type of game this is."
