Almighty Video Game Designer
986 Chapter 985-price of the remake
While the game pods were selling like hotcakes, Chen Mo announced a new piece of news, mainly about his plans to remake VR games.
The seaside mansion in oasis would be the first to be reset. After the reset, all the matrix game cabins would undergo a system update by default, and oasis would become the default login space for all the matrix game cabins.
In other words, after the player lay in the matrix gaming cabin and opened their eyes, they would be in the seaside mansion in oasis.
Furthermore, the place where the players woke up was no longer the bed in the bedroom, but the matrix game cabin in the study.
This was just a joke. In oasis, the players 'log-in location was the virtual matrix game cabin in the seaside mansion. It gave them the feeling of entering another game cabin from one game cabin, which maximized the player's sense of immersion.
There were many different brands of traditional VR gaming pods, and there were many developers who made VR games. Therefore, most VR gaming pods had a more conservative login interface, just like a computer desktop. It was often just a beautiful scene with very little interactive elements.
However, the matrix gaming pod was different. There was only one next generation VR gaming pod in the world, and it was Chen Mo's son's product, so he could play with it however he wanted.
This way, the matrix gaming pod and Thunderbolt gaming platform would form a highly closed system. From hardware to software, since it only needed to be compatible with his own product, there was more room for development.
Another important piece of news was that all VR remakes would be priced the same. If the player had already bought the original, they only needed to pay an extra 10% of the original price to get a copy.
For example, the price of Assassin's Creed: Origins was 1980 Yuan. No matter how much the players paid, the remake only cost an additional 198 Yuan. If the player didn't buy the original version, he would need 1980+198 to buy it without discount.
When the news came out, all the players were excited. They all expressed that salent was indeed a man of conscience!
In fact, the price of the remake was completely up to the manufacturer. If Chen Mo said that the original and the remake cost 1980, there was nothing they could do about it. They could only curse at salent for selling the remake as a new game, and at the same time say,"it's so nice".
But now, it seemed that the reset only required 10% of the price, which was very kind to the old players. 1980 could totally buy 10 remade classic VR games, it was like giving them away for free.
Of course, the prerequisite was that you had already bought the older versions of the game ...
However, no matter what, this pricing strategy was already very cost-effective.
The matrix gaming pod was Chen Mo's son's product, so it had to be built with Thunderbolt gaming platform. The players knew that there was no lack of games in this game. After all, Thunderbolt Entertainment's development ability was second to none in the world.
Now that Chen Mo had announced the price of the remakes, it was as if he was sending a message to all players: Don't worry about buying the matrix gaming pod. There are plenty of games!
……
On the other hand, the other independent video game designers working with Thunderbolt gaming platform were also making use of their time to develop next generation VR games.
After receiving Chen Mo's rules, it wasn't that difficult for these video game designers to make a next generation VR game. However, the most difficult part was that they had to make a game that fit perfectly with their new equipment.
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was a good example. After changing to the new VR version, players would have absolute freedom in the game and could perform more complex and varied tactical actions. You want to crawl forward sideways? No problem. You want to pick up a brick from the ground and throw it at someone else? No problem. You want to dismantle the gun and throw the magazine aside so that others can't use it even if they pick it up? No problem.
Compared to the original VR version, the new PlayerUnknown's Battleground would take a big step towards the "real" element, which was the biggest advantage of the matrix gaming pod as a new device.
Of course, in order to simplify the rules and operations of the game, not all the content was suitable to be "real", and the designers had to take care of this.
For these designers, the matrix gaming pod was the opening of the future. Now that it was selling so well all over the world, it was definitely possible to make a game specifically for the next generation of VR.
Moreover, even if they didn't care about the money, these designers would be happy to make a next generation VR game because it represented the latest gaming trend!
Wasn't the reason why video game designers worked so hard to make better games so that they could catch up and even lead the new wave of games?
The appearance of the new gaming pod also affected Chen Mo's plans for the Oasis. Luckily, the Oasis plan was scheduled to be released in November, which gave the designers plenty of time to make changes. After VR technology entered the next generation, the Oasis Project would inevitably be given new meaning.
……
……
The second week after the release of the matrix gaming pod, oasis was updated to the players 'VR gaming pods at the same time.
Although many players thought that it was just a new bottle of old wine, after taking a sip, they realized that it was really fragrant!
Under the framework of the next generation of VR technology, everything in oasis became more real, and the players 'freedom also increased exponentially.
However, many players who were obsessed with reading noticed that there was a line in the update: Nuan Nuan received an epic-level enhancement.
The players who didn't read the details of the update naturally didn't care about this. The players who read the details were also dumbfounded. What was an epic enhancement?
Most people did not take this to heart. After the update of oasis, they immediately ran to their mansions to play with their dogs. After all, they had been addicted to the new game cabin and had neglected the dog for a long time.
However, there was also a group of players who harbored bold thoughts and tried to do something bold to Nuannuan.
Yes, they had succeeded, but the consequences were severe.
A player touched Nuannuan's thigh, but Nuannuan immediately locked him in place and began a combo.
[Pile driver + brain slam + meteor fall + burning Warhammer + War Stomp ...]
Well ... The scene was out of control, and even the loyal dog only dared to show half of its head and watch carefully, not even daring to bark.
After the combo, Nuannuan clapped her hands and returned to her book as if nothing had happened.
Only the players were left lying on the ground, their minds blank.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
