Chapter 1151: Trilogy
Every time I talk to Chen Maolin and others, Sun Peng feels that he has a deeper understanding of game production.
And after today, he finally understood that it is one thing to be ambitious, but it is another thing to blindly pursue the big and all. Therefore, after a detailed understanding, Sun Peng agreed to Chen Fengzhi's suggestion without hesitation, that is, "The Legend of the Old White Heroes...... Or "Old White Heroes Turn 1", will only do the plot of "Book Sword Enmity and Enmity"!
"And in the beginning, my advice was to be steady."
Finally, after following Chen Maolin to his office, the game director closed the door and said seriously: "Admittedly, your ideas are very good, and it is also the development trend of stand-alone RPG games now, such as a fully open world, such as the value of justice and evil, etc., and then online mode, etc., are all very good ideas, and they are also the mainstream of stand-alone masterpieces now!" But ......"
"But it's too hard, right?"
Before Chen Maolin finished speaking, Sun Peng had already shook his head with a wry smile and said.
After sitting and chatting with seven or eight professionals for a long time, if he still couldn't understand what everyone was saying, Sun Peng felt that he could really find a crack in the ground to get into.
So Ren Er Chen didn't say it just now, and it wasn't until now that the three of them entered the small room and opened up to chat.
"That's right, it's too hard!"
Bringing the freshly poured coffee to Sun Peng, Chen Fengzhi nodded and smiled: "Although Lao Chen and others are the elites of the industry, and your boss is even more generous in throwing money in, we can toss it, but to be honest, making games is the same as making movies, trying new things will definitely take time to explore...... It should be said that it is a little more difficult than making a movie. ”
Nodding, Chen Maolin also echoed: "That's right, martial arts games do already exist, but they are basically at the level of ordinary RPG games in China, and there are no works that can make too many waves, I think you know this better than us." So seriously, we can't find a person to learn from......"
"Understood, I understood!"
Hearing Chen Maolin say this, Sun Peng hurriedly raised his hands.
The game adaptation rights of his books were basically sold, and the prices were not low. But it's a pity that the performance of the few games that have been completed so far are relatively average, to put it simply, traditional action games are just dressed in layers of martial arts skin, so Sun Peng is not even interested in helping to promote it on Weibo.
If you really want to learn from them, Sun Peng will definitely want to die.
"So, we have to figure everything out on our own!"
After taking a deep breath, Chen Maolin said in a deep voice: "Including the light skill system, hidden weapon system, and of course, the fighting style that I think should be done the most well, and will inevitably be brilliant after doing a good job, etc., will set a benchmark for martial arts games!" And all of this needs to be explored slowly...... But again, we can't achieve perfection with just one game! ”
Chen Maolin paused a little when he said this, and another surnamed Chen immediately took over: "Therefore, the best plan is to divide it into three steps and make "Old White Heroes" into a trilogy!" ”
"Trilogy?"
"Yes, trilogy!"
Nodding, Chen Fengzhi said with a smile: "The first part, make a good enough martial arts game, lay the foundation for the graphics style, battle mode and other elements, but make certain compromises in openness and gameplay...... After "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 1" came out, we accumulated a lot of experience, and the team was completely mature. And more importantly, we can know what they like and what they hate through the feedback of players, so that we can adjust and modify it in "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 2"! ”
"And then by the time it comes to the second part, it's a real open world, a seamless map."
Following Chen Fengzhi's words, Chen Maolin said with a smile: "Of course, in order to ensure the attraction to fans, "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 2" can be richer in content in addition to the improvement of the world view, the improvement of the picture and gameplay, for example, the content of two books. In this way, everyone knows that we are doing more carefully, and the production cost is higher......"
"So the price of the game can be higher, right?"
Looking at Er Chen's strange expression, Sun Peng suddenly realized.
"That's right, that's the truth."
Shrugging his shoulders, Chen Maolin nodded and said: "Although you are the boss and you don't blink an eye when you throw money in, but as a gamer, Chen Fengzhi and I don't want "The Legend of the Old White Heroes" to end up being a pure dream product...... You should understand when I say that, right? Essentially, we still want it to be a business game, a business game made with heart! “
"Well, that's it!"
Echoing the voice, Chen Fengzhi also nodded together.
”……“
Looking at the serious appearance of the two, Sun Peng also frowned slightly, and quickly understood what they meant - of course it is a good thing for you to spend money to make games, and they support them if you want to make the best games, but you can't just throw money without considering any returns!
As professional gamers, they don't want to see such an outcome.
After seeing Sun Peng's pensive appearance, Chen Fengzhi continued: "In fact, we all think that "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 3" will be the ultimate product of all the experience, technology and creative accumulation of our studio, that is to say, we suggest that when "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 3" comes out, we will use the real open world and then develop the online mode to create a real Jianghu for players...... It's not impossible to spend seven or eight years developing a game, but it's not suitable for a studio like ours that has just been founded, and it's not suitable for those game elites who have dreams of returning to China with Maolin! “
”…… I see! “
When he heard this, Sun Peng finally understood.
To put it bluntly, it is unreliable to expect to use money alone to unanimously envelop the hearts of these elites, in Er Chen's opinion, after all, no matter how much money there is, it can't destroy the market too much, right? So in addition to money, you also need a sense of accomplishment to satisfy everyone! And if the studio's first work takes seven or eight years to polish, God knows how many people will be willing to stick with it until that time?
Lao Bai Studio is not one of those old companies, it doesn't have such a deep heritage!
So after pondering for a while, Sun Peng spread his hands: "Okay two, let's just talk about your thoughts!" ”
"Hehe......"
Seeing Sun Peng's appearance of having "accepted his fate", Er Chen glanced at each other and laughed at the same time - they like this kind of boss who is willing to listen to others' persuasion, instead of insisting on his own opinions, and he has to be a layman to lead an insider.
So after Chen Fengzhi made another gesture of please, Chen Maolin smiled: "I know you must be in a hurry, and we also have sufficient funds to attract enough manpower!" So...... Three years, three years is enough time for us to make "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 1"! And when I was doing 1, I could directly start the pre-research and preparation of "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 2", and when the first part came out, it would take another two years to make it. In the end, it took us another three years to make our ultimate version of "The Legend of the Old White Heroes 3", which is exactly eight years......
