Chapter 140: A Xianxia Game of Zen Mutual Entertainment
Zheng Hongxi stretched: "Ah, I've finished writing two character backgrounds and a branch line, wow, I'm so tired to death." ”
Jia Peng said: "No, didn't you even write the plot of "Warcraft"? ”
Zheng Hongxi shook his head: "That's different, although the plot of "Warcraft" is very powerful, but after all, there is only one line, in fact, just write it down all the time." But this game is different, there are too many branches, and they will affect each other, and it can be countless times more complicated than "Lifeline", and I wrote it too much. ”
Qian Kun said while matching the watch: "Hurry up, I still have a lot of martial arts and props descriptions waiting for you to write." ”
Zheng Hongxi held his forehead: "My God! ”
Wen Lingwei said: "By the way, show me the script you wrote, and I'll check it for you." ”
Zheng Hongxi shook his head violently: "That's not good, isn't that equivalent to a spoiler?" Besides, you don't need to check it, the store manager has already seen it. ”
Wen Lingwei was speechless: "Stingy, how can you have a problem with the stingy store manager." ”
Zheng Hongxi said: "This is not stingy, this is professionalism." ”
Wen Lingwei rolled her eyes, with an expression of "yes, yes, yes, what you said is right".
Qian Kun said again: "By the way, you remember to plan the plot for a few special martial arts and props, like the six-vein divine sword, the store manager has specially instructed you to complete the special plot in that immeasurable cave to get it, you remember to write it into the plot." ”
Zheng Hongxi nodded: "I remember, I was planning to write a long side plot for it." ”
Jia Peng sighed: "It sounds like although the theme of this time is a martial arts, but the store manager has also created a lot of martial arts, this name sounds very good, like what is the eighteen palms of the dragon, the six-vein divine sword, the Northern Shengong, the Dugu Nine Sword, it is so emotional." ”
Wen Lingwei said: "That's, do you still need to doubt the plot made by the stingy store manager?" He has too many ideas. ”
Jia Peng said: "But I'm really surprised, I thought that the store manager was going to go dark on the road of Western Fantasy, after all, "Warcraft" is so popular, I feel that I can still make money lying down with a sequel." How did you come up with the idea of making a Chinese-style game? ”
Su Jinyu said: "You don't know? Because the game committee, oh, that is, the relevant department in charge of the game, issued a notice to the designers to develop a Chinese-style game, and to select. ”
Jia Peng was stunned: "That's the case, I thought the store manager wouldn't care about this kind of thing at all." ”
Su Jinyu said: "Actually, the store manager originally planned to make a Chinese-style game, but it just happened to catch up. ”
Jia Peng asked, "Then, can the store manager win the first prize?" ”
Wen Lingwei said: "When has the stingy store manager ever lost? ”
Su Jinyu hurriedly stopped: "Don't swell, don't swell, it's actually hard to say this time, because Zen Mutual Entertainment is also developing a stand-alone game with the theme of Xianxia, and it was developed more than a month earlier than us, and now the progress should be quite fast, it's hard to say." ”
Jia Peng asked, "Huh? Zen Mutual Entertainment also want to participate? ”
Su Jinyu nodded: "Of course, Zen Mutual Entertainment and Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment will participate, and there are many more games participating in the selection this time than you imagined." That's why I'm not sure. ”
Jia Peng thought thoughtfully: "That's right." If it's a selection this time, Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment basically has no chance, but the strength of Zen Mutual Entertainment is in the Xianxia area, and "Legend of Edgeworth" is a very successful RPG game, and their heritage is very deep. ”
Zheng Hongxi said: "Actually, not necessarily, the advantage of Zen mutual entertainment is not so great. ”
"I looked up a lot of previous award-winning games on the Internet, and probably figured out the preferences of the group of judges in the game committee. To put it simply, they don't like online games very much, although the profitability of online games is stronger, but the ability to express the plot is weak. ”
"These judges paid special attention to the game's story, as well as the innovation of the gameplay. In other words, the best entries are actually single-player games, the better the production, the better, and the richer the story, the better. ”
Su Jinyu said: "But, even so, Zen mutual entertainment is still very advantageous." There are a lot of various quest lines like "Legend of Edgeworth", and Zen Mutual Entertainment has accumulated in this area, so it shouldn't be bad if it is really changed to a stand-alone game. ”
Zheng Hongxi said: "They are not bad, but our plot is better." ”
Everyone: "Dizzy, it turns out that you are boasting about yourself in disguise!" ”
Zheng Hongxi nodded: "Yes." ”
Everyone: "......"
Qian Kun waved his hand: "Okay, okay, this is the end of the idle talk, hurry up and develop it, we still have a lot of work, time is very tight, everyone hurry up." ”
……
At the same time, in an experience store under Zen Interactive Entertainment, an A-level designer is also busy.
Yao Yu, an A-level designer, one of the main creators of "Legend of Edgeworth", is responsible for the plot structure, and is also a well-known plot designer and author of Xianxia novels in China.
"The original paintings of the characters that just came out in the morning, a few of them are unqualified, so I will go back and redo them."
"I've fine-tuned the plot of the Netherworld Palace again.,Remember to change it to the game.,There are also plot dialogues and corresponding CG.,Also fine-tune.。
"Tighten the combat system, if you don't do it well here, it will affect the progress in the future."
"Adjust the difficulty of the level again, not too difficult, but not too easy, you have to take into account the feelings of those judges."
"Everyone has to keep in mind that our game is not for players, it's for the judges, and we must always let the judges feel that this is a very orthodox Xianxia-themed game, so that they can feel feelings and sincerity, understand?"
"Yes, I feel that we can lean in the direction of "Legend of Edgeworth", but it can't be too similar, if it is too similar, the jury thinks we are not innovative enough."
Yao Yu is also commanding his four assistants, nervously preparing this Xianxia-themed stand-alone game.
In fact, for Yao Yu, it is a bit overkill for an A-level designer to make this game.
S-level designers can be fully responsible for a VR game project, while A-level designers can be responsible for large-scale PC online games, or take on important work in VR game projects.
Relatively speaking, making a single-player game is a bit of a chicken killing.
However, Yao Yu also knows that the reason why the senior management of Zen Mutual Entertainment gave him this task is that he likes his research and development experience in "Legend of Edgeworth" and his excellent plot ability.
In other words, it is a political task. Winning a good ranking in this selection will help enhance the status of Zen Mutual Entertainment in the domestic game circle, and it will also help enhance his own reputation.
Therefore, Yao Yu didn't dare to be careless at all, racking his brains to make a high-quality stand-alone Xianxia game and win the first prize this time!
