Chapter 109: Mr. Pei ...... is a lonely person (add more for the half round-faced fat chicken leader)
Bao Xu has been busy with the optimization of "Ghost General" and "Sea Fortress", and he happened to be free recently.
Lu Mingliang handed over "Game Producer" to Bao Xu for the first time.
After all, this is the chief experience engineer in the company, and he is also the person who can best understand Mr. Pei's intentions!
Lu Mingming, who is very bottomless in his heart, needs to gain some confidence from the big guy.
Bao Xu ran the game seriously.
I didn't run all the endings, because that would be too time-consuming, so I just chose according to my instinct and ran two or three endings.
"How is it, Brother Bao, how does this game feel? Is there any room for modification? Lu Mingliang asked.
Bao Xu didn't answer immediately.
After a while, Bao Xu asked rhetorically, "How do you feel?" ”
The "you" here naturally refer to all the employees responsible for the development of "Game Producer", including Lu Mingming.
Lu Mingliang hesitated for a moment, and then decided to answer truthfully: "Many people think ...... This game is a bit boring. Except for Lin Wan, everyone else has little confidence in this game. ”
"Although this game was designed by Mr. Pei himself, I always feel ...... The motivation to keep playing is not enough......"
Lu Mingming's mood was very entangled.
On the one hand, I am a little confused and ashamed.
Think about the last game, Huang Sibo and Bao Xu made "Sea Fortress", which was an instant hit!
As a result, when it came to me, I took Huang Sibo's class, but I had to let Mr. Pei revise it personally......
I always feel like I'm dragging my feet, and I don't have any cards.
On the other hand, I am sincerely worried.
The gameplay is designed by Mr. Pei, and the art is checked by Ruan Guangjian's boss, in all aspects, this game should be a super hit.
But in the experience, there is no premonition that "it will become a hit", but many people in the design team think it is quite boring!
This kind of contradictory mood always made Lu Mingliang feel apprehensive.
It was impossible for him to ask Mr. Pei directly, so he wanted to hear Bao Xu's opinion.
Bao Xu thought for a moment.
"I think this kind of thinking of yours is a mystery of the authorities."
"You've read the script of the game early in the morning, and you already know the options, it's like being spoiled in advance, and of course your feelings aren't so sharp."
"As a bystander, I thought the game was fun and very special."
Lu Mingliang was stunned, he didn't expect Bao Xu to give such a high evaluation.
Interesting?
Very special?
It may seem like a very common description, but the key is from whose mouth it comes from!
Who is Bao Xu? That's the god of the whole game.,There are more games in the liver.,The horizons are much broader than the average player.。
It's like the little girl who joined "Sea Fortress".
For many domestic players, it is the first time to encounter this kind of gameplay.
But the reason why Bao Xu made this design is because he has already seen and played in many games of major foreign manufacturers.
That's the difference in vision.
Bao Xu, who has played so many games, feels "very special", enough to see the game "Game Producer", which is really very special!
But Bao Xu's words were not finished.
He added with a serious face: "But that doesn't mean that this game will make money. ”
"I think this is Mr. Pei's attempt to be high and low, and it may be a god because of this, or it may end miserably. It all depends on the feedback from the market. ”
"Please advise Brother Bao." Lu Mingliang listened humbly.
Bao Xu straightened out his thoughts.
"I can only figure out Mr. Pei's intentions based on my limited game experience."
"I think Mr. Pei has always been a very lonely person."
Lu Mingliang was stunned: "Pei is always a very lonely person?" How so? I think...... Mr. Pei is quite optimistic and cheerful. ”
"Really?" Bao Xu asked rhetorically, "Do you remember the last company-wide dinner, the state of Mr. Pei?" ”
Lu Mingliang was a little stunned.
He recalled.
The last dinner was to celebrate the successful development of "Sea Fortress", and Mr. Pei took everyone to eat a buffet of more than 400 per capita.
Because he ate so much, Lu Mingliang still remembers it vividly.
What was Bae always like at that time?
It's really not impressive.
Try to recall again.
"Like...... Mr. Pei had been sitting quietly at that time, and he hadn't eaten or drunk, as if he was preoccupied and had been thinking about something......"
Lu Mingliang looked at Bao Xu.
Bao Xu nodded: "That's right, in this environment, you can see a person's true psychological state." ”
"Usually, Mr. Pei is in the company, in front of us, and behaves quite easy-going, this is because Mr. Pei, as a leader, must always infect us and inspire us with the best mental state."
"But on an occasion like a dinner, people who are really lonely in their hearts will still reveal their true emotions more or less!"
"If you think about it carefully, at that time, the development of "Sea Fortress" was completed and it was about to be a great success, and everyone was full of delicacies in front of them, and in all aspects, there was no reason to worry or think about it, right?"
"What makes Mr. Pei so low?"
"It can only be the loneliness in his heart!"
Lu Mingliang blinked, feeling as if there was some truth.
From a logical point of view, Mr. Pei's mental state at that time did have some problems!
Bao Xu continued: "Moreover, when I recently optimized and changed "Ghost General" and "Sea Fortress", I also felt similar emotions, which should have been hidden in the soul of the game by Mr. Pei when he was carrying out the basic design! ”
"For example, "Ghost General". Why set a price of 10 yuan and a lifetime card of 30 yuan? I think it's like a merciless mockery of the gaming industry. ”
"Mr. Pei thinks from the bottom of his heart that this kind of game is not worth so much money at all! A card fried to hundreds or thousands? Swindle! ”
"And the appearance of "Ghost General" is to debunk this scam and make players realize how ridiculous it is to spend hundreds or thousands to draw a card!"
"From "Lonely Desert Road", to "Ghost General" and "Sea Fortress", and now to "Game Producer", Mr. Pei has been using this unique way to satirize the current impetuous and profit-hungry game industry."
"It's just that ...... "Game Producer" is more straightforward, more spicy, and more profound than the previous games!"
"Also...... Even less pleasing. ”
Lu Mingming's eyes gradually brightened.
I see!
In this way, everything is strung together!
But then, Lu Mingliang had a new incomprehension.
"However, since the connotation of this game is so profound, why do you think that Brother Bao may have a god in this game, or it may end miserably?"
Bao Xu looked out the window and looked at the scenery in the distance: "Aren't all works that transcend the times like this?" ”
"It's normal for real artists to fail commercially because they are often not understood by the general public."
"If "Game Producer" fails, it is not Mr. Pei's failure. But...... Today's players don't deserve such a good game. ”
"Maybe in the future, they will gradually understand the meaning of this game."
"But now...... Can the impetuous market see the truth behind this game? I don't really know. ”
