Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

"It doesn’t make you more proficient, just a general understanding is enough."Chen Xu glanced at the confused Han Yue and said.

"Historical Records" has been studied by many literati from ancient times to the present, and there are still various arguments to this day. Naturally, Chen Xu would not think that Han Yue should be allowed to read it. Yue will be able to figure it out in a few days of contact.

This is mainly to prepare for the subsequent operation of"Lituo Bin" and to create an official community group.

Based on this historical recording mode, there is no need to be too professional. But at least some basic things cannot be wrong.

After saying a few words to Han Yue, Chen Xu then called Zhao Shan, Chen Qingzhu and Qin Yi together. He talked to a few people about"The Shore of the Land" Some matters in development.

The overall numerical values ​​and gameplay have been determined. The main thing is the art performance in the game, such as combat optimization, how to better display a cutscene combat animation.

Also A building upgrade on the big map. Players can clearly see the different displays of buildings after upgrades on the map.

When leading an army to attack a certain place, the effect of the army rushing on the big map, in addition to related visual performance and special effects There will also be some optimizations

………………

Three Kingdoms games have always been a relatively large market in the game category.

It's just that the quality of most of them is quite worrying.

During the time when Chen Xu and the team were developing"Ledu Coast"

《"Three Kingdoms" still maintains a high number of daily active users.

This is also related to a feature of"Three Kingdoms".

Each game will have a different experience with different military commander characters, different cards drawn, and different characters faced.

That is, just like MOBA games, why does the same equipment, the same map, and so many heroes in the whole game make people feel interesting?

It's because the experience of each game is different. Even if you are playing the same hero, the enemies and teammates are different, and the variables in the game are also different.

Another point that is also more important is that Chen Xu made"Three Kingdoms" appear as a real machine.

If it were before this, Chen Xu would have produced"Three Kingdoms".

Without the initial accumulation of"Vitality Knight", it would be difficult for Chen Xu to roll out"Three Kingdoms" and create a Matthew effect to the greatest extent.

Secondly, without this official event,"Three Kingdoms" is likely to face imitation by major manufacturers.

Although Chen Xu believes that with the quality of"Three Kingdoms", he can still stand at the top.

But the diversion of users is inevitable.

And because of this official event, it was inconvenient for large manufacturers to take action. Small manufacturers did, but they couldn't beat Chen Xu, and they didn't stop at all.

For various reasons,"Three Kingdoms" can be said to have passed the most difficult moment in its early stages.

Once a game of this type is recognized by users, it can basically be said to be rock solid.

You must know that in the previous life, even though Nanyou Card had various deceptive operations in an endless stream, and it had been dead for seven or eight times in any game,"Three Kingdoms" is still alive, and even when new general packs and content are released, it can still be refreshed. Hit the bestseller list.

It’s because players recognize this game. Even if you’re a poor operator, they are still willing to pay for the game they like.

……………

As the days went by, almost three-fifths of the time for the Three Kingdoms game recruitment event held by the Game Committee had passed.

Some manufacturers' Three Kingdoms games have been launched on major platforms, and some relatively powerful game manufacturers have also warmed up their games in advance.

Of course, the vast majority of them are PC games and mobile games, and the client games are basically small and medium-sized.

After all, major game designers also know that if large-scale PC-side masterpieces and VR masterpieces really participate in this event, even if they win awards, the benefits may not be that high.

If it fails, it will become a joke in the industry.

And there are actually some excellent games among them.

It is worth mentioning that there are also many METAGAME elements in this game, similar to the random gameplay of"Soul Knight".

Of course, the one that gets the most attention is"Three Kingdoms: The Legend of Shu Han" developed by Tenghua's Youzi Fang.

It is a stand-alone game, and the cost is not high, but the money is spent wisely.

The art aspect is very good, the scene modeling and character movements are all of a high standard.

In terms of gameplay, the game is an ARPG. As for the plot of the game itself, Tenghua will naturally not disclose the detailed content.

But the main framework is still promoted as a promotional selling point.

In the game, the player will play a soldier of the Shu Han, and gradually grow up from an ordinary soldier, and witness the rise and fall of the Shu Han.

It seems to have some tragic overtones, but the possibility of multiple endings is not ruled out.

The reason for doing this, Chen Xu guessed, was to better cater to the judges' preferences.

After all, tragedy often touches people's hearts more than comedy.

Take a look at the awards won at various domestic and foreign film awards. Among them, the films that are more literary and artistic are basically based on tragic plots.

Tenghua's promotional information can be found in almost every major gaming media, website advertising section, official blog, and official accounts.

Although it is not overwhelming, the intensity is quite strong.

There is also a heated discussion going on among the player groups.

"This game from Tenghua looks like it has something interesting!"

"I heard that it was run by You Zifang, and I feel like it’s really quite capable!"

"Compared with"Three Kingdoms", I feel that this game seems to have a more flavor of the Three Kingdoms."

"By the way, didn’t Chen Xu also make a Three Kingdoms game? Why is there no movement?"

"Yes, I heard that Chen Xu also made a Three Kingdoms game, but why can't I see any movement at all?"

"It feels like it would be difficult even to make it, right? After all, he had already developed a game called"Three Kingdoms" before, so he didn't have that much time left for Chen Xu."

With the promotion of"Three Kingdoms: Shu Han", online players are also speculating and talking about it in major game communities.

Among them is the first-class award for this official event.

Judging from this situation, the final award It’s really hard to say whose family the flowers will fall on.

《"Three Kingdoms" has advantages, but it seems that Tenghua's"Three Kingdoms: Biography of Shu Han" is not bad either.

And while the players were having various heated discussions, one player suddenly discovered that Chen Xu had posted an official blog.

But this content made them a little confused

‘Traveling back to the Three Kingdoms era, how should we survive in troubled times? '

After this official blog was posted, the melon-eating players who were watching were all stunned.

What the hell?

How do you survive in troubled times when you travel to the Three Kingdoms era?

What's going on?

Some players actually speculated that this might be Chen Xu's promotion of the new game.

But the key point is, what kind of genius propaganda are you doing?

People's promotions are all about showing original promotional paintings and actual game demonstrations.

Why did you ask an incomprehensible question instead?
