Compared with the heated discussions of players, there are also many surprises from game manufacturers in the industry.

At this moment, in NetDragon's office, Ma Lei has a feeling that it is difficult to ride a tiger.

Is the Roman Empire game finished?

The joint development of the three companies has naturally been completed.

But the quality of the game is a big problem!

Especially when it comes to publicity, NetDragon has such an exaggeration.

In fact, this is a practice that is often used in the industry.

After all, in the advertisement of Master Kong's braised beef noodles, so many pieces of beef are displayed, but in fact, the slices of dehydrated beef in the ingredient package are smaller than the fingernails.

Haven't you heard that the goods are mainly actual items?

This game promotion is naturally to show the best content in front of players, and occasionally the content shrinks a little bit, which should be a normal thing, right?

And "Roman Empire" hasn't shrunk too much!

After all, it is also a big IP, and it is also an ambitious IP, so naturally it is impossible to be like Master Kong's braised beef noodles, the beef in the propaganda is as big as a thumb, and the actual thing is smaller than mouse feces.

In all fairness, the quality of "Roman Empire" can be said to be quite excellent, restoring the content of the movie relatively well, and adding a lot of expansions and follow-up plots in the original book, and because many people have already seen the plot of "Roman Empire", its team also invited the screenwriter team of the original work to improve the follow-up plot.

It can be said that as an IP adaptation game, at least in terms of plot, it is impeccable.

In addition, in terms of the game's combat system, "Roman Empire" is definitely not worthy of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", both in terms of combat sense and combat system, can be regarded as quite good.

But the problem is that Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is more than just that!

You're going to say the combat system?

From the original "Wolf: Shadow Dies" to the later "Dark Souls", "Monster Hunter" and "God of War", Nebula Games' shaping of the combat system is also obvious to all.

And the sense of impact is something that tests the team's heritage, why did Nebula Games cooperate with NetDragon when they were developing "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim"?

Isn't it just that relying on the foundation of Nebula Games at that time, there is no way to do a good job in the combat system and a good sense of blow?

That's why they learned from their side, including the subsequent games of Nebula Games, the combat system and the sense of attack, didn't they grow up slowly with the foundation they learned on NetDragon's side?

If it weren't for them NetDragon, where would the current Nebula Games be!

Thinking of this, Ma Lei inexplicably felt a little proud, and they didn't cover it!

However, although the combat system and sense of attack are not inferior to "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" is much richer in terms of gameplay!

In "The Roman Empire", according to their conception, the war scene will be a major point.

But "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" also has this part of the content, the choice of Sparta and Athenian forces, weakening the opponent's national strength to a certain level, you can start the war of conquest.

In addition, there is a unique naval battle mode, the gameplay is not complicated, but the feeling is completely shown to the player.

In addition, Assassin's Creed: Odyssey has a gameplay similar to Borderlands' brushing, with a variety of genres and equipment to create unique routes.

It won't be as informative as a dedicated brush-and-brush game like Borderlands, but as an ARPG, it's good enough to play as a flavor enhancer.

If you really want to make it a game of brushing, it will be counterproductive.

However, this is only a little less in terms of gameplay, and the real gap is a shaping of the game world.

With the development of open world games, in addition to the general direction, such as the numerical system in the game and the arrangement and design of some side quests, they are basically very perfect.

In addition, the main story and the entire gameplay mode are carried out by Yang Chen, and more resources of the team can be put into the details of the game and the background of the game.

Especially after UEgame joined, it can be said that there are more resources in all aspects.

That's why Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is able to give players that sense of history in the game.

On the other hand, "The Roman Empire" is much worse in this regard.

But in the case of Roman Empire, it is indeed an excellent game, but compared to Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, there are still some gaps.

Especially in terms of publicity, the publicity of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" is all real, and they have a little bit of exaggeration.

Ma Lei has no doubt that if "Roman Empire" is really to be launched, a wave of shrinking empires may be coming.

Skip tickets, adjust the release time, and by the way, also reset some content, such as piling up the details in the game, so that players can feel the feeling of the Roman period more.

There's no way, if it was before, even if you know that you might not be able to beat it, then you will still bite the bullet.

After all, the quality of "Roman Empire" itself is also placed there, and it is impossible to say that it is directly Waterloo by the impact of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", unless NetDragon Three does not do any publicity in the later stage.

But this is an IP adaptation game, and there are a series of follow-up plans, which should be earned or earned when it is going to be launched, but it is inconvenient for the series of word-of-mouth and follow-up operations.

"What are you doing with such sincerity? Propaganda or something that is not mixed with water at all? Do you guys do this game!? ”

After the order was issued, Ma Lei looked at the promotional materials about Nebula Games in the internal evaluation report, and immediately became angry.

After taking a few breaths, Ma Lei glanced at the closed office door and gently patted the armrest of the sofa with his hand.

"Du's Lai Nebula Game!"

……………………

The jump of "Roman Empire" is quite unexpected for most players, especially fans of "Roman Empire", after all, most players on the Internet are still looking forward to it, and the quality of "Roman Empire" is okay before.

However, NetDragon has already announced the news of the ticket jump, and it is useless for players to be surprised, and players have also guessed in their hearts that it is likely that the quality of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" has caused this ticket jump.

Otherwise, the launch time has already been announced, and the early publicity and warm-up have been done, which suddenly announced the news of the bounce, and the loss can be said to be big, not to mention the word-of-mouth of the game, the publicity cost alone is not a small amount.

And this situation even made many fans of the original "Roman Empire" have some curiosity about "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey".

Especially after learning that there is currently a 6-hour free trial of Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, a large number of players who were not interested in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey have poured in.

The short experience, when the magnificent ancient Greek face appeared in front of them, instantly attracted them.

"Roman Empire", sorry, we can't go back!
