"Mr. Luo, you mean that you have determined that you basically can't make money on this project?"

Xiao Weirui looked at Luo Bai in front of her in a daze, a little puzzled.

Of course, the reasons are very diverse, first of all, Mr. Luo's judgment on the market, before a game has been made, I have never seen Mr. Luo's conclusion on the "making money" of the game.

Now, in the process of handing over this project called "Wanda and the Colossus" to himself and communicating with himself, he made it clear that this project probably can't make any money, and it may lose money in the end.

Another is that Mr. Luo made it clear before that what he wants to do is at least be able to produce → make money → produce this positive cycle of games.

If you say it like this, there is no doubt that you will be slapping yourself in the face.

"Well, based on my analysis of the market, this result is indeed correct, but I will only say to Mr. Xiao alone about this conclusion, for the game development department below, I still have to ensure their enthusiasm when making games."

Luo Bai nodded and said calmly,

"And the reason why I told Mr. Xiao about this news in advance is that I also have the idea of making certain adjustments in the future publicity."

"Mr. Luo, since you have determined that the existing plan cannot be returned, why not change it, or say change it?"

Seriously, this is the strangest thing about Xiao Weirui.

This idea is not profitable, so change it! You change it!

You know why you don't make money, why?

"Because the core of the game is there, unless I'm willing to drastically change the kind of philosophy that Wanda and the Colossus itself is trying to convey.

Otherwise, I would have to make a fuss about the image quality and the comfort of operation. ”

Luo Bai was also a little helpless.

In such a large open and realistic world, aside from the characters in the plot and the various small animals that exist on the map, there are only sixteen colossa.

So empty, so confused, so lonely.

All the player has to do is raise the sword in their hand to guide the way in such a world, then run a stinky and long road, hack a colossus to death, and so on.

Of course, Luo Bai knows what the original author wants to express, he wants players to understand a game world that breathes real and experience the protagonist's urgent mood to save people.

But in today's fast-paced social environment, how many people have time to calm down and slowly experience?

Admittedly, the Colossus is large, and the battle is tense and exciting, but after experiencing the initial novelty, players will quickly get tired of it.

The map is too big, and there are too many "meaningless" running maps.

When Luo Bai can see the advantages of Wonder and the Colossus shining like stars, he must also have a greater understanding of its shortcomings from the existing standpoint.

It's not that he didn't think about making adjustments to Wanda and the Colossus, such as transforming the game into a box garden world, to reduce the size of the game world, and then add more interesting elements of exploration, excavation, and collection.

Through the design of the map, the process of rushing becomes more exquisite, the pace of the whole game becomes a little faster, and the content of the game is a little richer.

With Luo Bai's current level of knowledge of a game genre like Metroidvania, and the system's assessment of his existing abilities, it is actually not difficult to do this.

But again, the balance between commerciality and artistry is a long-standing problem.

Is it really changed to such Wanda and the Colossus, is it still Wanda and the Colossus?

What's more, Luo Bai can really tolerate his own works, the works under Chuxin, just a simple skin for a game classification that is already familiar and can no longer be familiar?

In every game, there must be a breakthrough.

The idea of making Wanda and the Colossus similar to Metroidvania only appeared in his mind for a moment, and he rejected it.

Then he returned to the sentence that Luo Bai had just said.

He can only choose to start with the picture quality of the game and the comfort of the game operation, and strengthen Wanda and the Colossus.

Try to reduce the discomfort of players who are willing to accept it when playing, and improve their gaming experience.

After all, it's a game in the PS2 era, and Wanda's perspective and rigidity in operation are still quite prominent because of the limitations of the times.

Xiao Weirui was really a little speechless by Luo Bai.

You want to say that he is sick, and he wants to make a literary and artistic point, express some opinions, and win some awards, and he knows very well that the results of the new project are not good-looking.

You ask him to change his plan, but he is reluctant.

It belongs to purebred silver, and it can't go up and down, and it's stuck there.

"Mr. Luo, I understand your thoughts......"

Xiao Weirui was silent for a moment, but still said,

"But you also have to anticipate the impact this may have on your original intentions.

In front of Ori, Dark Dungeon, Hollow Knight and other excellent works such as Zhuyu, the industry has a considerable degree of expectation for us to enter the 3D market.

Therefore, no matter what the final product of this work called Wanda and the Colossus is, there will definitely be no shortage of people who buy it at the first time.

If the game doesn't suit their minds, it can lead to a massive backlash.

Moreover, in the current game circle, it is more or less called our original intention to be the best game production team in China, and you are the light of domestic games.

Will the failure of Wanda and Colossus in the market lead to a change in the direction of the market?

Have you ever wondered how this will affect the industry? ”

"Didn't think much of it......"

Luo Bai was a little dumbfounded,

"However, I'm just a stinky gamer, so you don't have to raise me to this position.

Moreover, I just said that Wanda and Colossus would sell poorly, but I didn't say that it would have a bad reputation in the industry. ”

"The same ...... Capital-oriented, not making money is the original sin. ”

Xiao Weirui sighed.

Luo Bai was also a little helpless by the big housekeeper in front of him, so he was forced to helplessly take out another plan from his small drawer:

"Here you go, Dark Souls.

This thing can definitely make a lot of money, and the word of mouth can explode, and it is easy to get a TGA Game of the Year, and this thing is made to tremble in the entire game industry. ”

"Mr. Luo? Do you have such a good project to do? ”

"The 3D team has just joined, so we must run in with the team first."

Luo Bai muttered.

Xiao Weirui was interested, and immediately took the new plan in Luo Bai's hand.

But when she turned the page and found that there was not a word, and when she turned the back to the blank paper, she squinted and looked at Luo Bai unkindly:

"Mr. Luo, is this the plan you made that can make the industry tremble?"

"I'm doing it, I'm doing it, I'm doing it, the new folders have been created, what are you going to do......"
