Chapter 396: Undercurrents are surging! Welcome to Minecraft!

Goldwind Announces Engine Entry into Development

"Yunwei's next-generation somatosensory masterpiece "The Lord of the Rings: Gollum" announced to participate in this Cologne exhibition

"Comera revealed that the merger and acquisition are progressing smoothly, and the merger and acquisition is expected to be realized before the Cologne Game Show is launched"

"According to SNG and Twitch, the number of pre-viewers of this year's Cologne Gamescom online live broadcast has exceeded 32 million"

"Xunteng's famous studio Tianlang announced that it has reached a cooperation with Poland's Ziao Engine, and will completely abandon the fantasy series engine"

"The president of Germanic game manufacturer Fa Fox issued a document announcing his plan to develop and upgrade the business engine"

《……》

Getting scorched!

The world war caused by the fantasy price adjustment that has affected the global game industry has been ignited!

From the West to the East, all game manufacturers seem to be taking action.

The affected manufacturers are fully engaged in the research and development of self-developed engines.

Manufacturers such as Golden Wind, which is in the eye of the storm, have become the focus of global attention.

And the manufacturers that have not been directly impacted, such as Germain's Fafox, Poland's Aurora Games, etc., are also at their own risk.

It not only further stepped up the upgrade of the self-developed engine.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he began to try to open up the self-developed engine for commercial use, trying to seize a part of the market vacant by the operation of the dream puzzle.

As for the other business engines!

Naturally, it is a gong and drum, and it is a joy!

Everyone rushed to tell each other, celebrating the decline in the stock price of Dream Engine, and mercilessly instigated public opinion out of their own pockets, and stepped on the head of Dream again!

Of course!

In addition, as the focus of this world war in the game circle!

Gamescom, which will be held at the end of February this year, has naturally become the most concerned thing for players, and there is no one!

More than 32 million viewers have booked to watch, more than double the number of people who have booked views in previous years!

Discussion, melon eating, and high-mindedness......

Perhaps this is an unprecedented world war for the world game industry.

But for the players, this is an unprecedented carnival of public opinion!

Especially the Golden Wind and Yunwei!

Judging by the current situation, the battle for the focus of Gamescom is already clear.

"Minecraft", which is rubbed by the golden wind, will be in response to the super IP game spin-off "The Lord of the Rings: Gollum", which Yunwei has spent a lot of money to create.

One is a square pixel game with a total investment of only 20 million!

One is a next-generation 3S-level masterpiece with a copyright licensing fee of more than 100 million!

It seems to be clear which is better and which is inferior.

After all, to put it mildly, the current golden wind is driving a reversal of its own development history.

$20 million investment!

To know!

When the Golden Wind fought against Kemera for the first time, the total investment of "Escape" was nearly 19 million dollars!

At that time, the wind of gold had not absorbed the steel chain fingers, let alone the blues of melancholy, nor had it gone through many salary increases after that, and the personnel cost was far less than now.

Other words!

Circumstances change with the passage of time!

Although the labor cost of the Golden Wind has increased nowadays, in fact, the production team members of this game created by the Golden Experience Studio are still those people, and even to some extent, they have invested less in outsourcing costs than in "Escape" back then!

It's not driving back, what is it?

So much so that now there are voices in the market pointing out that I am looking for 20 million versus 328 million, and the Magic Ring Gollum is no matter how thin it is, it can't let a 20 million project survive, right?

If this were a war, that would be the equivalent of 2,000 men fighting 32,800 men, an average of one against sixteen.

Don't say it's human.

Even if sixteen pigs arch a person, I am afraid that this person can be arched to death.

Therefore, although the battle has not yet been fought, many melon-eating players have predicted that the Golden Wind is likely to suffer the biggest Waterloo in history this time.

As an opponent, Kaukic, after seeing this public opinion situation, couldn't help laughing three times, and looked forward to burying the golden wind with his own hands at the Cologne Game Show, and then receiving the priceless word-of-mouth IP!

However!

Before Cownick's grinning mouth could make a sound!

The appearance of a piece of news instantly reversed the extremely unfavorable situation for the wind of gold-

[Golden Wind V: "What are you doing? 》】

What are you doing?

This is a very common question in everyday life.

At the same time, it is also the title of the first promotional video of "Minecraft......

……

“So——?”

Looking at the title name of this strange promo, Dream made a black question-mark face emoji:

"What a strange name is this......"

Dream, one of the new streamers of Mouse Channel.

Oh no, it's actually a bit reluctant to say that he's a new streamer, after all, he's been broadcasting live on Mouse Channel for nearly four years.

It's just that the previous dream has always been tepid, because the games he broadcasts are usually some more casual and relaxing games.

The popularity of the game is not high, and his popularity is naturally not high.

Until a few months ago!

Just when almost all live streaming platforms are streaming "Resident Evil 7" and subsequent DLC!

Dream didn't follow the crowd because of his personal preference, but accidentally saw the game "Stardew Valley" and lived an idyllic life.

But who would have thought that it was this unintentional move that made him one of the first players to start playing Stardew Valley.

And some of his money-making and favorability strategies quickly became popular in the game circle after the game became famous.

Even after that, during the explosion of "Call of Duty", he still didn't play it, just simply bought the game and put it in the warehouse to eat dust, and after Fury Flame released Oka Arca honorably, he became a truck driver honorably, and even formed a multimodal team with his good friend George, running long distances every day.

Now.

With his personal game preferences and live streaming style, as well as the excellent live broadcast effect of his good friend George, Dream has become a big game streamer with 7.6 million followers.

And today, with the release of the first promotional video of "Minecraft".

Dream, who has long been interested in this strange pixel style block game, naturally opened the official tweet of the golden wind for the first time and watched this promotional video-

Bite...... Boom......

As the piano music flows like a babbling stream, the picture gradually emerges.

In the empty office, the sound of the clock ticking is faint.

A man in a sky-blue shirt who was still working overtime at this time was working at his desk, writing and drawing on a tablet, and seemed to be making drawings.

“…… What??? ”

Seeing this, Dream couldn't help but exclaim!

"It's a ...... Live-action promo? Oh my gosh, the last time I saw a live-action trailer for the game was Goldenwind's Psychophobia! ”

You know, game promos rarely use real people.

So it's no wonder that Dream was so surprised.

And in the live broadcast room at this time, a group of sailors also had their eyes lit up-

'Sure enough, there is a new job, worthy of the wind of gold'

'It's a pity it's not Sam and Mia who show up'

‘LOOOOOOL’

'So the wind of gold, this is really going to go retro flow?' ’

'Dream back to ghostphobia'

"But the gap between this real person and the cube man is too big, how is the golden wind going to balance?"

'It's interesting, let's see if there's any surprises......

‘……’

And with the audience's discussion!

Tuk Tuk Tuk –

Suddenly, there was a muffled knocking sound from under the ground at the feet of the overtime man.

Followed by!

Smack!

With a slight cracking sound, I saw that the two floor tiles at the man's feet were actually broken, and then, a grass-green shirt girl with blonde hair and braids poked her head out, and she was still holding a pixel wind shovel in her hand.

"Hey! Steve! What are you doing? ”

Half of the girl's body leaned out of the ground and tilted her head to ask the man who was still working at the desk.

"Ah...... Yes! Yes? ”

Steve, on the other hand, was surprised by the girl who suddenly poked her head out of the floor tiles:

"Uh...... Hi...... Alyx, I'm working on architectural drawings, and you're ......."

"Hey—"

Hearing this, Alyx waved his hand, then stuck the pixel shovel beside him and stretched out his hand:

"It's all off work! Or...... Can you find inspiration in the world below? ”

"The following ...... World? ”

Hearing Alyx's words, Steve was a little confused.

Stretched out his hand and was about to ask, but at this moment, he saw Alyx pull him down to the ground!

Phew——!!!

Moment!

The camera perspective passed through the pitch-black dimensional wall, and as the screams of the two sounded, a new pixel art world suddenly appeared in front of them!

The clouds drifting in the sky are angular squares, the hills on the ground are squares, and even the sun in the distant skyline is a huge square!

Now!

They are falling from the sky!

And when the screaming Steve turned his head to look, he saw Alyx beside him, who had also turned into a cute cube man girl at this moment!

“Woooooooooow——!!!”

“Ohhhhh——my fvking god!”

The breakthrough of the dimensional wall moved the mirror, and in an instant, the live broadcast room was amazed!

Dream screamed even more, marveling at the imagination of the golden wind!

There is no doubt that such a special shot is really amazing!

From the three-dimensional real world, through a space-time hole dug with a pixel shovel, you can instantly travel to the pixel wind block world!

The tension and expressiveness of this kind of picture can't help but make people cry out!

Poof!

With a bucket of floor water poured pinpoint onto the soles of his feet, Alyx also managed to carry Steve down to the green grass.

"Oh oh my gosh - I'm going to throw up-"

Steve soothed the frightened little heart with his rugged cuboid arm and turned his head to look around at the wonderful world.

You can see that the surrounding hills are all around, and oak trees of high and short grow naturally on the field.

Without exception, everything here is made up of pixels.

Even the oak canopy is made up of pale green cubes.

"Wow-"

Steve couldn't help but be stunned by the wonderful world in front of him:

"W-where?"

At this moment, Alyx, who was walking in front, turned around and made a gesture to Steve to keep up with me:

"Welcome—"

"My world."
