Almighty Video Game Designer

Seeing Lin MU's confused expression, Chen Mo smiled. He turned on the projector and explained his plan to him.

"I know that as an independent video game designer, you must have your own beliefs in the game. You'll also be worried that you'll lose control of the game if you work with me, and that you'll end up making a game that you don't like ..."

"I understand, but I want to ask you a question."

"With your current progress in research and development, how long will it take for you to string all these things together and turn them into a complete world? As an independent game designer, I don't have the financial resources to make a larger map. "

"Moreover, your strengths lie in historical research and cultural excavation. You're not good at playing games. "However, if you want to make an outstanding game, it's not enough to just rely on cultural content. No matter how many historical details there are, without the support of the game's plot and playstyle, it'll only become an exquisite textbook. It'll be difficult to attract a large number of players, let alone make it into an influential IP."

"However, if we work together on this project, I can guarantee that it will become one of the best game series in the world. It will be a game full of historical significance and one of the most influential IPS."

"What's the name of this series ...?"Lin Mu was a little stunned.

"Assassin's Creed," Chen Zhao replied.

Lin Mu asked again,"so, which team in Thunderbolt entertainment is working on Assassin's Creed?" The team from mysterious seas and end of the United States?"

Chen Mo shook his head and smiled,"no, I'll set up a separate project team for you. I'll select the most suitable people for Assassin's Creed from the other projects." I've already decided on the project team's code name. "

"Abstigo."

Lin Mu saw the logo of abustego on the projection: It was a triangular icon formed by three echelons.

Chen Mo gently swiped the phone screen, and the design concept for Assassin's Creed appeared.

"If you're interested, we can have a good chat about the basic ideas of this game. I think it will be very attractive to you. "

……

……

On the internet,'Chen Mo's new game' once again became a hot topic.

The players were already used to this, because every time Chen Mo released a new game, it seemed to be able to surprise them.

Especially since last year, PlayerUnknown's Battleground, mysterious sea, and doomsday of the United United States had repeatedly brought VR games to new heights. In the field of MR, the appearance of world of elves had also brought players a completely different experience.

Many players were curious about what Chen Mo's next game would be.

Should he continue developing MR games or return to VR games?

If it's a VR game, can it go beyond the framework of the mysterious seas and doomsday of the United States and give the players a new experience?

The success of 'doomsday of the United States' was undeniable. Not only did it sweep the world's video game media and boost Thunderbolt Entertainment's reputation, but it also gave players more hope in Chen Mo.

There were also many players who were worried. With so many full marks for 'doomsday of the United States', most of the 'movie-like game' content had been dug out. Even if Chen Mo made a new game, would it be able to reach such heights?

It would be awkward if the new game was not as good as 'end of the United States'. It wasn't that the players had high expectations of Chen Mo, but that they were already used to Chen Mo's new games giving them a different kind of shock.

Just as the players were making guesses.

The publicity for Chen Mo's new game came faster than expected.

……

While many players were still immersed in world of elves, Chen Mo released a promotional video on his Weibo.

Many players were shocked. The new game's promotional CG was out so quickly? There was no reason, right?

However, after taking a closer look at the promotional video, many players were confused.

What was this?

……

At the beginning of the video, in addition to Thunderbolt Entertainment's logo, there was a new logo.

The three echelons shrank and combined together after a simple turn, forming a triangular logo. No one had ever seen this logo before, nor did they understand its meaning.

Then, in the slightly light background music, a male voice that sounded like a host or a technology advertisement promoted a new technology called animus in fluent and clear English to everyone.

"The breakthrough in technological development has brought us a revolutionary change."

"Including the way we live and the way we think."

"Modern communication technology is becoming more and more advanced. It's instantaneous, convenient, and easy to use. There are almost no obstacles."

On the screen, the earth was connected by countless lines, symbolizing that with modern communication technology, every corner of the earth had been covered by communication networks, and the relationship between people had become inseparable.

"E-mails, smartphones, social networks, matrix glasses, and other new things kept appearing, building a world where you can connect with others in the blink of an eye.

"The changes that technology has brought to people are amazing. What we have been thinking about is, what else can we do?"

"Think about it, the VR gaming pod in your house has an amazing program: animus。”

A virtual program made up of countless lines appeared on the screen, representing the virtual animus.

"You only need to enter the VR gaming pod and open the Animus program ..."

"You can instantly transform into Napoleon, or ... Who knows? maybe it's Julius Caesar?"

A virtual portrait of Napoleon and Caesar appeared on the screen. Beside the portrait, there was a life introduction, date of birth, and death of the two historical figures.

"Think about it, the Animus program can provide you with a virtual world, allowing you to connect with the past in just a few minutes and let history repeat itself before your eyes?"

"Animus makes the world of imagination more than just imagination."

"Created through the research results of Abstergo's memory gene research, animus can give you the opportunity to play a game in history ..."

A series of program words appeared on the screen. It was written in English:

[Game loading progress: 98%]

[Transmigrated to: Boston]

【1789-03-25】

"Let me show you the powerful ability of animus ..."

The scene changed and switched to some virtual scenes. These scenes had all been blurred out, and one could roughly tell the background and age, but it was not clear.

"You can come to Constantine, Venice, Florence, Rome, and Paris to reminisce about the local customs and practices of that time."

"You can re-experience the United States revolution, explore every town, as well as the undiscovered wastelands and islands."

"You can even travel thousands of years to Egypt see the magnificent group of golden towers, or fish on the Nile River."

"Due to the appearance of animus, history and reality have never been so close ..."

"As a member of abstigo, I hope you will enjoy this brand new program and experience the recreated history!"
