Chapter 224: Thank you, it's all out!
Half a year is not a long time, but it is not a short time.
Half a year has passed in a flash.
There hasn't been particularly big seismic news in the gaming industry.
But there are also a lot of changes.
In addition to the division and merger of large and small companies, the acquisition of the acquisition, and the change of hands of the transfer.
There are also more and more game manufacturers who have begun to pay attention to the quality of games and lower the standard of krypton.
After all, the current Blue Star players are no longer the ignorant teenagers they were four years ago.
After really experiencing a good game, if you want to fool yourself with garbage + marketing, then few people will buy it.
The decrease in the consumption of krypton gold will lead to the shrinkage of the industrial scale of a single company.
But this is equivalent to making a dominant company spit out more profits.
This proceeds will be able to feed more small game companies.
As a result, in the past six months, more small and even individual game manufacturers have sprung up at home and abroad.
The total production of games has also increased rapidly in half a year.
The local feeling of Jianglin City is particularly obvious.
Specifically, it is manifested in:
Subways, bus stations or various official advertising display points in other cities will push some real-life product advertisements.
And only Jianglin City, the whole city is densely lined with advertisements about all kinds of games.
The new landmark "E-sports Stadium" is full of people every weekend.
As the world's first official e-sports venue.
Many events, large and small, are also regularly held in the e-sports arena.
Foreign and even foreign tourists have come to visit.
By the way, it has also driven the tourism economy of Jianglin District and the virtual economy of the electronics industry.
According to the semi-annual report published by the Jianglin City Hall.
Compared with Jianglin's total GDP, the proportion of the entire game industry has reached an astonishing 3%
It may seem like 3% is insignificant.
But in fact, Jianglin's GDP is about 2 trillion a year.
The game industry alone can reach a scale of 60 billion.
And that's without counting the other derivative economies that the game has driven.
The industry is stable and thriving.
And as the founder of the number one player who has contributed to the entire game industry in the present and benefited the future, Kejin.
It's been a bit embarrassing lately.
Needless to say, the quality of "Breath of the Wild" is a random killing, and you can imagine it with your eyes closed.
Therefore, Kejin hopes that its employees can take care of the proposal book at the same time, and can improve the picture quality a little more.
In the previous life, the biggest complaint about "Breath of the Wild" was nothing more than the scumbag of clarity, except for the clarity, it was impeccable.
But that's based on the fact that the SW performance itself is not enough to see.
SW on the blue star in this life, not to mention the game of bringing the old man's ring.
But bring a chicken, and there's nothing wrong with Naraka.
The picture quality of "Zelda" can also be relatively improved.
Therefore, in the case of Kejin requiring employees to do a good job.
For the first time, the number one player has a vacuum period of 'no new games have been released for half a year'.
Originally, the vacuum period was also the vacuum period.
After all, it's not a game famine like it was back then.
Many game manufacturers are beginning to realize the importance of game quality.
Even if you can't innovate for a while.
But copy the ready-made ones always.
Meat pigeon, ring like, open world, tower defense, farming, battle royale and a series of other new genres held by the number one player.
Each type is stitched together with each other, and then added its own brains and ideas.
The finished game is not to say that it is very fun, at least when players wait for the meal replacement of the number one player transition period, there is no problem.
Merely......
The big problem is.
I don't know which little pussy in my own company.
I accidentally leaked the promotional image of the Elden Ring DLC "Shadow of the Golden Tree".
Originally, the DLC was intended to wait for reality to synchronize.
Brother Tongzi is very powerful, and he can extract all the derivatives of a game together.
Therefore, the promotional picture of "The Shadow of the Golden Tree", Ke Jin also asked the employees to make it in advance.
But what was obviously not foreseen has been spread in the past six months.
Every month there are players shouting.
"I'm Cao! The Shadow of the Golden Tree is coming! ”
"I'm looking forward to it!"
"I'm so lucky! Can I play Shadow of the Golden Tree directly after playing Elden Ring? ”
"Yes, lucky hemp, I thought the same when Player One announced that he was working on "Song of Silk" two years ago/Anger/Rage"
And then every month the anticipatory players rejoice.
Expectations gradually turn into disappointment.
And the disappointment eventually turned into urging and rectifying.
Among them, the most unstoppable thing for Ke Jin is a second creation video.
The title is very rebellious.
"The latest demonstration screen of the Silk Song is exposed! 》
Click in to take a look.
This forced the player to directly rip out the model of the Hollow Rider and cover the Faded One.
Even the player controls it as if he is controlling an empty predecessor.
But the setting is the Ansel River region in Elden Ring.
That is, the big ant area that made countless female anchors panic and scream.
However, the old buddies in the comment area have long been experienced in battles and are used to seeing them.
Instead, he teased.
"Suffering games, and there are bugs, and there is even a skill called worm silk, which is indeed the song of silk that I have been looking forward to/dog head"
"BYD secretly changed the bumblebee, right?"
"After all, the principle of regression is the principle of regression, so the fader is a bumblebee."
"Understood, understood, this is all thorough! The Ansel River is the lake above the City of Tears, and the City of Tears is linked below. Rational. ”
"Now I can play two of my favorite games, I can't be lucky? / Dog's head and flower"
"I hope Carpal can do it for itself! If there is no new game, I have to clear the four-lock "Elden Ring"! ”
In addition to the idle and bored players who began to go crazy with the second creation.
What made Ke Jin even more headache was.
Because the number one player hasn't released a new game for half a year.
A group of players found out that there was no movement at the urging.
even directly began to spoof Ke Jin himself......
At the beginning, he just included Ke Jin as one of the all-stars of the ghost animals in Thunderbolt Station, and he took him with him when he was doing all kinds of ghost animals.
And the material of the video, Ke Jin never thought of it......
It's fucking...... At the beginning, when I was short of money and manpower, I put on a short live video of the first game "Origin of Species" to promote it......
At that time, I looked really green, and the live broadcast room was very simple, and the words of propaganda were directly typed out in black and white italics with WPS.
How did this come out?
Who is so idle that when he faced a completely unknown little anchor and mini game designer four years ago, he would start recording the screen?
And there are a bunch of messages from fans of the number one player below the various ghost animal videos.
"Kebao, do you see? That's what happens if you don't have a new game for half a year! ”
"If there is no new game, you will not only be in the ghost animal area!"
"Wait, have you noticed...... The face of Kebao ...... Looks a bit like the main beauty of the number one player? ”
"Shhh You said so...... It seems to be a little wrenching! In recent years, Kebao has become more and more mature, and he doesn't feel very photogenic, but looking back on his young and handsome appearance four years ago, it seems that he really looks like the Lord is beautiful...... The charm between the eyebrows and eyes cannot be imitated. ”
"It's hard to ...... Could it be said?? ”
"I'll make up! Is the main beauty the younger sister of this kid Kebao? ”
"Good, good! Yubao, as long as you give an order, we will immediately surround you to become the new carved treasure! ”
"New Carbo? A real carving! ”
Ke Jin thought that those two creations against the sky.
and being moved to the ghost animal area to join the all-stars.
Even Keyu's identity was dug up, and players ridiculed that they would push Keyu to the altar if they didn't play the game again, and let her lead the company forward.
Ke Jin thought that as long as he was silent and didn't express any opinions, he just needed to wait for the players to end the carnival feast, and then he could turn the page.
Anyway, "Zelda" really can't be rushed, polished slowly, and it is bound to show the best quality.
The number one player is not bad for money now, and the runaway player has also initially gained a foothold in Omi, and he is not panicking at all.
But......
You never know what outrageous gamers are going to do while they're waiting for a new game......
When Ke Jin knew, he almost fainted with black eyes.
These little cubs have even been arrogant enough to use their portraits in AI face-swapping technology.
And it's not the other type......
Good news, Ke Jin's face has been replaced in an adult action movie.
changed the news, and changed it to the heroine of the film......
When part of the harmonious footage was cut out, leaving only the close-up of the face, the clip was uploaded to the Internet.
The public opinion of the entire player community has exploded!
“????”
"Damn?? Such a hard work??? It's exploding! Which guy did this technology? ”
"Good, good! Let you not have a silk song! Let you not come out of the shadow of the golden tree! This is the end of a designer who doesn't do a good job! Now it's been pouted by the players (ecstasy)"
"Don't say it, don't say it! Ke Bao's face changed to the heroine's body, and there was no sense of disobedience at all......"
"Thank you Kebao, it's a little tough...... But it's all out. / Shy/shy"
"To be reasonable, I really don't recommend you to play Kebao like this, because I haven't played / Crazy Laugh / Crazy Laugh"
"What about Viwangdi? Wei Wangdi, save it! ”
"Please! You force Kebao to give it a look, you don't put some pressure on Kebao, Kebao doesn't move, and you don't have any idea of making a new game! Woooooooooooooooo ”
"Still put aside the Viwang Di, the Viwang Di has been beaten out of the conditioned reflex, and now as long as Kebao rings the bell, the water of the Viwang Di will flow out, hey, it is sweaty water."
"The last time it was like this, it was Pavlov with his dog / squinting and laughing"
No matter how much the players put pressure on Kejin.
Kejin is as stable as an old dog, and he can't move by thunder.
On the contrary, it was a blizzard on the other side of the ocean, which seemed to be a little unbearable.
It was decided half a year ago to design an open-world game.
Under the full research and development of Blizzard, which gathers the strength of the entire company.
The project has also entered the final stage.
And for fear of being driven ahead by the number one player.
wanted to seize a preconceived concept of players, and carried out a wave of publicity.
Blizzard's current CEO, Mead, also had a simple idea.
There are three possibilities.
Your own game is better, and your own game wins.
The number one player game is better, and the number one player wins.
But in the case of about the same quality.
Preconceived wins.
That is to say, as long as you are the first to announce the launch.
You have a 2/3 chance of winning!
Under Mead's operation.
Soon.
A promotional video for an open-world RPG game called "Gods Continent" has finally been released on the shelves of major popular media around the world.
Blizzard's first sincere masterpiece after half a year, with all the elite designers, is a great tribute to players around the world!
When this news came out, it still caused quite a stir in the game circle.
One is that the open world is hot enough.
Even after the past six months, this new genre has not experienced any decline in popularity.
Two.
Definition of the open world.
Although thrown by the number one player.
But before Ready Player One has a second game.
Judging from the uneven game quality of large and small companies in the past six months.
There are still a lot of game makers who don't know the definition of an open world.
And simply do linear games with an open-world skin, slightly increasing the degree of freedom, and want to quickly take advantage of the popularity of a wave of money.
Ubiquitous.
So much so that players are actually telling the truth in the past half a year......
I'm a little disappointed with the open world genre.
There are even people who are skeptical.
Is it that we have defined the open world wrongly.
Or maybe only Elden Ring can master the open world?
But right now, with the launch of Blizzard's new product, players are back in the mood.
In any case, the open world created by Blizzard, the world's game giant, must be much stronger than the crooked melons and jujubes in the past six months.
Just when players are sighing that it is worthy of being a blizzard's promotional video, the modeling is exquisite and delicate, the gameplay of the open world is also clear at a glance, and a series of settings such as various interactions and high degrees of freedom are slowly presented with the broadcast.
It sparked cheers and praise from the players again and again.
I think this is indeed the quality of the game that should exist in the style of a big factory.
With the exposure of the promotional video and the retweeting of countless players, the momentum has attracted players to look forward to the launch of "God Continent".
Mead smirked.
Tell the truth.
This time, what we directly chose in "God Continent" is a slippery kneeling.
I'm not going to say anything to you either, the games made by Ready Player One are rubbish.
I'll admit that you "Elden" is awesome, okay.
I'll admit I can't do it in a short period of time.
But I can copy it!
Moreover, the plagiarism in the Omega game market is due to the fact that there is a clear plagiarism law.
So it leads them to be more savvy when they plagiarize.
I don't need your worldview, I ask someone to write it myself.
The boss designed it himself.
But your definition of the open world, we absorb it all.
For example, if you have some dungeons in Elden Ring, we will also have them in the Continent of the Gods.
Your Elden Ring has an underworld, and we also have the Continent of the Gods.
Your Elden Ring is designed to enhance the player's desire to explore by arranging points of interest in all corners, and we in "Gods Continent" will also imitate it for you!
In addition to taking off the core gameplay of the ring like, it has been replaced with a more traditional Western fantasy orthodox RPG style.
Arguably.
"Gods Continent" is a set of leather games that changed the fragments of "Elden Ring" and reforged beauty from this shattering.
But the coat of the big factory is really impeccable, and it can't even say the word plagiarism.
Anyway, whatever the merits of your "Elden", I will take it all.
The main one does not despise you!
Directly take your current strongest work to fight back with you!
"This time, we will win!" Mead swore by it.
"Unless ......"
"Ready to play a game that surpasses Elden."
"But it's simply not possible." The day before the release of "Gods Continent", Mead smiled confidently when he expressed his opinion at a high-level meeting.
