Game Entertainment Empire

With the release of the two trailers, apart from the players, the shock to the people in the game industry is not ordinary.

In the NetDragon game, Zhang Yida, who has completed the development of VR Auto Chess, also watched the two trailers of "Metal Gear Solid". Rendered cutscenes, smooth cinematic lens mode, and long shots in one go.

If you don't look at the cool battle scene edited by the one-and-a-half-minute short shot, Zhang Yida will really think that this is a movie that is about to be released just by watching the nine-minute long shot.

"It's not the type of interactive movie game, but a new breakthrough in game narrative." Zhang Yida thought to himself watching the promotional video of "Metal Gear".

He gave high praise. Although it cannot be said that there are no shortcomings in this approach, for game designers who focus on stories, such a method of game shots and cutscenes is definitely eye-catching.

Ordinary players who don't understand, when watching this cutscene, they will only feel that it is very powerful, substituting, and exciting.

But only those who are game designers and have rich experience in game development understand what kind of breakthrough this is.

…………

When Zhang Yida and other people in the game industry praised the various researches of "Metal Gear Solid" like the players, Mi Huyou had a headache in Tenghua's "Alien Crisis" studio.

Originally, their games were discussed on the Internet. Although they were all infamy, it was not a big problem.

And now, with the release of the latest "Metal Gear" news by Nebula Games, all the players' attention has been diverted.

How are they going to keep up the heat!

There is no way to realize the follow-up coping strategy!

Mi Huyou's face was very ugly.

"Boss, why don't we release a new trailer as well? Just copy theirs?" At this moment, someone under his command suggested to Mi Huyou.

Hearing this, Mi Hu's young eyes couldn't help but light up.

Anyway, it’s all about touching porcelain, touching one is touching, touching two is also touching, anyway, they have already decided to copy, so follow through to the end.

"You can prepare it right away! I'll take a look at the promotional video of "Metal Gear Solid" first,

Then decide how to copy. Mi Huyou nodded, then shook his head disdainfully, and opened the other party's website.

Ten minutes later, Mi Huyou sat in front of the computer without saying a word, watching the finished video.

He suddenly fell into a moment of confusion.

How should this promotional trailer be copied?

You can understand it, but you can understand it. First of all, the picture quality of the game has been exploded. Secondly, this one-shot long shot, with many details in it, is not something that can be played in "Alien Crisis". .

First of all, the XOF soldiers boarded the plane on a rainy night, and even had a somewhat pleasant BGM, which formed a sharp contrast with the picture.

Then when BIG BOSS climbed the mountain from the cliff, the moment when the XOF logo and the FOX logo on his body were wrong, the contradictory expectations brought by it could not be shaped in "Alien Crisis".

Even if you want to touch porcelain, you have to know how to touch it.

If you simply make a poor copy, the other party will only treat you like a clown, and with pearls and jade in front of you, how can your poor copy win the market?

He has a good quality and can pose a threat to the opponent. Only in this way can he become angry. It is impossible to surpass the opponent if he simply touches the porcelain or uses inferior works to touch the porcelain.

This is the experience that Mi Huyou learned from his owner, Tenghua.

When someone else has done a good job, you don't say that what they did is better than others, but at least you have to compete with the quality of the other party, even if it is only a little bit inferior.

but now?

Copy the "Metal Gear" promotional video?

It's not that he didn't want to, but that he found that there was no way to copy it.

Unless you do a CG animation directly, but it has nothing to do with their games.

…………

At the same time, in the Nebula game, Yang Chen was also a little distressed. The "Metal Gear" promotional trailer that was released was actually just a prologue cutscene at the beginning of the game, but some post-processing was done. Half of the short shot clips were shot purely with CG animation.

Looking at the players who were extremely excited at night and asked when the game will be released under his official blog, Yang Chen pursed his lips.

When will the game be released?

Looking at the enthusiastic players on the official blog, Yang Chen really wanted to tell them that if everything went well, he would probably meet in the second half of the year, but he couldn't say that.

"However, I feel that the game can be divided into two parts, and a prologue can be released first, so that players can come up to play directly and have no way to understand the plot." Watching the cutscenes edited online, Yang Chen recalled the memory of the dream content, talking to himself.

"And the content of this part of the prologue has basically been developed. Although the remaining content has only been done a little bit, it can make the players feel that our development is progressing very fast." The more Yang Chen thought about it, the more he felt confused. .

Although it is a prologue, if it is connected with the main line of the game, it will take several years at every turn. This kind of time span will always make players feel a little uncomfortable.

Separating the game separately in this way can make players understand more clearly what kind of game it is.

Looking at the game screen in front of him, Yang Chen made many excuses for himself.

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Wang Ye and others next to him couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"Mr. Yang, is it really okay for us to do this?" Wang Ye looked at Yang Chen and asked.

Others don't know, but the longer he stayed in the Xingyun game, the longer he followed Yang Chen, Wang Ye knew very well that the man in front of him had a dark belly.

For example, Li Ran, who had been transferred to the mobile game department, was sent blades and verbally threatened by the players of "White Album" all day long, so that he would not want to eat.

Players of "Survival Survival" bought their hands with various -90% discounts, and said that they made a lot of money.

And now we have to strip the prologue of the game!

"The content of the prologue is not enough, so we definitely can't sell it at the price of 3A, but the price of 48 yuan should be very conscientious, and this game is different from ordinary action-adventure games, so this prologue is almost the same. It is also a trial version, which can let players clearly understand whether this is their favorite dish, don't wait for such a long time, and find out that this game is not their favorite, and thus turn from love to hatred into our black pink."

Now that it's been decided, it's easy to find an excuse. Yang Chen said that it's all for the sake of the players.

"And the players really want to play "Metal Gear Solid", so we can satisfy the players' hunger earlier." Yang Chen thought for a while and added.

Hearing Yang Chen's words, Wang Ye suddenly felt that these words were quite reasonable.

Looking at the project team members who are working, and the players who are still talking about "Metal Gear" online, Wang Ye felt a moment of silence for them.

Soon, you'll be able to understand what an emotional roller coaster is, from heaven of joy to hell of sorrow.
