Video Game Designer

People in the domestic game industry are still feeling that Tianhe Networks acquired 4.5% of EA shares after acquiring 5% of Ubisoft's shares. It once again touched the heart of the domestic game industry.

Compared with the fact that Tianhe Network acquired the shares of Ubisoft and EA, at most people can sigh with emotion. Is Tianhe Network so awesome now?

However, the two games of Wang Yuan and Zhang Yangchen, a subsidiary of Tianhe Network, have attracted the attention of the industry.

There is no other reason, because these two games involve two issues that the domestic industry is most concerned about. On the one hand, it is the market exploration of the game, and on the other hand, it is the official acceptance of the bottom line of the game theme.

In the chat group of a game producer in the industry.

‘Holy shit, have you paid attention to the new games of Tianhe Network and NEU? '

'How could it be possible that they didn't pay attention? Netyuan wants to be on par with Tianhe Network. The cost of 100 million is used to develop stand-alone games, not including promotional costs. Although there is a console version, the most important thing in China is the digital platform. According to Their last work was priced at 99 yuan, and at least 1.5 million copies must be sold to be able to pay back. '

'1.5 million copies doesn't feel like a big problem. If the quality of the game is similar to the previous one, and the current total sales of a game on NEU has already exceeded the 3 million mark, the most important thing is that they haven't done anything less than 30% off. discounts. '

Some people lamented in the chat group that there are no low-priced activities, which means that the game has sold so much, and the real thing is that it has made so much money.

For example, some classic games have announced that the global sales have reached 50 million or 60 million, but in fact these games are not sold at the original price at all, but the cabbage price.

A game with an original price of more than 100 yuan can be taken away for only a few yuan, or even given away for free, bundled with other games as a big gift package.

Compared with this situation, the sales quality of network elements is much higher.

‘However, I feel that Tianhe Network is even more awesome! It is an interactive movie game, and it is about the anti-Japanese civil war. The most important thing is that in the promotional poster released earlier, the protagonist is actually a traitor and wears National Party clothes. Although the result will definitely not be as expected, but now the review of the game The scale is so big? '

Someone expressed emotion in the chat group. There was news that the game was over-reviewed and restructured some time ago, and everyone is still waiting to see the official regulations.

But the official regulations did not wait, but they waited for the game of Tianhe Network, a game that exploded in scale in their view.

‘Others can pass the audit, others are Tianhe Network, you can try another game manufacturer to make this game? '

Hearing this, everyone in the group couldn't help but fell silent.

But to put it this way, you can still see some things. The review of the game has indeed been relaxed a lot. You must know that let alone games with this theme, even games like Red Dead Redemption, there is no way to pass it. Trial.

Compared with the ideas of game industry manufacturers, ordinary players are even simpler.

An Eastern Xianxia game under Wangyuan is not bad. Although it has invested hundreds of millions of yuan and is well-made, after all, there is already a Tianhe network in China, and the players just expressed their optimism and support.

However, this Tianhe Network game called "Latent" was stunned by the players.

‘Tianhe Network is a bit awesome! I thought it could only be seen in TV series and movies, but I didn't expect to see this scene in the game. '

'The people are made up of people, and people have desires. Everyone's desires are different, but they have something in common. And this common part constitutes the desire of the people. Certain desires may, to an individual, be base, dirty, or even nasty. But once it rises to the desire of the people, it must be bright and legitimate! The way to be in tune with the people is to translate our desires into the desires of the people through certain techniques. '

‘Fuck, with the background of the game in this case, it can pass the trial? Tianhe Network cattle batch! '

'Speaking of it, I saw it: In the history of the Anti-Japanese War, leave your legend. When I said this sentence, I still felt a little awkward, just like it felt like a domestic anti-Japanese war drama, but this promotional trailer just exploded! Speaking of which, I am a little worried about whether Tianhe Network can recover the cost of this game. After all, there are too many cloud players for this game, and this theme is probably only available in the domestic market. '

"The salty radish upstairs is nothing to worry about. Why do you care so much? The game is fun and do your part. Just buy a genuine copy and have a clear conscience. As for whether to lose money or not, that is something the manufacturer has to consider. What does it have to do with us? '

Many players have expressed their feelings, and they are still in EA's Chuhe, besides discussing with Eve and Wilson about the new platform, they also took time to play in the hotel room for a while. of this new game.

According to the test that Chuhe gave Zhang Yangchen back then, it was not a PPT game as he had planned at the beginning, but it used live motion capture and later CG synthesis.

At the same time, the dubbing in the game is not the so-called Internet celebrity dubbing actor, but a movie-level dubbing actor is invited to perform professional dubbing.

Most of the capital costs are mainly spent on CG polishing and voice actors.

As for the review issue that many players and people in the industry are talking about, Chu He played it carefully, and the plot files in the game are all in his computer.

After looking at it for a while, Chuhe felt that it was possible to pass the trial, mostly due to some of the plot changes.

Just like Heavy Rain and QD's Becoming a Human being, Zhang Yangchen's Lurking is also a multi-line plot.

Through different choices in the game, players can even enter the KMT line, or become a traitor and become a neon man, but the ending of these two lines is one word: death!

Only by joining our CPC and under the guidance of our party can we finally survive in peace and stability.

This kind of political correctness is unavoidable, not only in China, but also overseas game manufacturers, including EA, Ubisoft, Nintendo, etc. These first-line overseas major manufacturers, for them, political correctness must also be observed one thing.

"But it's probably impossible to rely on the game itself to get back the money." Chu He looked at the game file and shook his head slightly.

The development cost of this game, coupled with the cost of publicity, is actually very high.

The entire game process takes about 30 hours, and the price of 149 yuan requires more than 3 million sets to recover the cost. If it is an ACT or RPG or FPS type game, Chuhe is a little confident.

But this kind of game is too easy to pass through the cloud, which is not conducive to the growth of sales.

Coupled with the limitations of the subject matter, basically rely on domestic game channels, and even Chuhe didn't bother to find EA or Ubisoft in terms of distribution.

Although relying on Tianhe Network's name and face, Ubisoft and EA will not refuse to release this game globally.

But there is no need for that.
