Almighty Game Designer

"I have a lot of people, I am very pleased."

Chen Mo said with satisfaction and said: "First, let me introduce myself to my classmates. My name is Chen Mo, which is the designer of "League of Legends" and "Watching Pioneer." Most of my classmates should know me. So I won’t say much, and I’ll say more, it seems like I’m showing off.”

There was a burst of laughter under the stage. This kind of boastfulness was also ingenuity. This Chen Mo is still the same as when it was broadcast, and always likes to say Sao.

When the laughter subsided, Chen Mo continued: "First of all, I would like to thank the leaders of the Game Committee and the World Games Design Professional for letting me talk about this class. I am also very honored."

"Today is the first lesson. Let's start with a brief talk about the course itself. This course is called the game prospects, which is to summarize the past development experience of the game industry and look forward to the future development of the game industry."

"About some of the past experience, the students have already learned in the last semester, I will not repeat them. Now it can be said that the era of mobile games, pc, vr games coexist, and the future ... may be the world of virtual games, Maybe not, this is the focus of our future courses."

"Of course, according to the current general understanding, the future is definitely the world of virtual games, because virtual games can crush mobile phones and PCs in various experiences. Many people think that with the continuous development and progress of technology, with vr games With the popularity of the cabin, vr games will replace mobile phones and PCs as the most important and high-end entertainment methods for the future of human beings, and will become the mainstream game type."

"On this point of view, I want to hear the thoughts of everyone first. Do you want to take the initiative to speak?"

The students in the audience responded very enthusiastically and raised their hands.

Chen Mo pointed to a girl wearing glasses in the front row: "Let's talk about it."

The girl wearing glasses stood up: "Mr. Chen Mo, hello! The game is better than mobile phones and PCs in various performances. Although the popularity of vr games in China is not too high, it is mainly due to Limited to the cost of vr games."

"Currently a vr game cabin, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, is too expensive for the current domestic income level. But if the future, let's assume that we pass the vr helmet or just a vr Glasses, you can let people enter the virtual world? Or, the price of vr game cabin dropped sharply, down to several thousand dollars this same price as pc, then vr games will definitely squeeze the living space of pc games. So I think the future is definitely the world of vr games."

Chen Mo nodded and pointed to a fat boy in the middle row.

The boy stood up: "I think in the future, the vr game console will definitely become the mainstream, but the PC and the mobile terminal should also have room for survival. Unless there is a virtual glasses or virtual helmet that can integrate mobile phones and PC functions. Before this, it is impossible for vr games to completely unify the entire game market."

"But as far as the current situation is concerned, this day is still too early in terms of our level of technological development, so the status quo of mobile phones, PCs and vrs will continue for a long time."

Chen Mo also named a few classmates.

Everyone has their own opinions, but the overall concept is similar. Everyone thinks that virtual games become mainstream is a matter of time, just a matter of time.

Before the virtual game is completely unified, other game platforms, including mobile PCs, will not suffer a fatal blow, but it is impossible to live too well.

Chen Mo nodded, this view basically represents the current mainstream view.

Chen Mo said: "This is what I am going to talk about today. I have different opinions on this point."

"Is the game really completely limited by the platform? I don't think it will be a really good game. No matter what platform you put on it, it's a good game. It might even save a platform because of a game."

The students are squinting, this is an unconventional statement.

Some students in the audience asked: "Mr. Chen Mo, are you talking about League of Legends?"

Chen Mo said that many people's first reaction is "League of Legends", because before the "League of Legends", the pc game was completely suppressed by the vr game, but the popularity of the League of Legends made many people unexpectedly, it The heat is even more than many vr games on the market.

And the League of Legends can not be changed into vr games, which also makes many people realize that vr is not omnipotent.

Chen Mo nodded: "The League of Legends is just one example. In fact, there are still many vacancies in the domestic game market, and vr games cannot completely cover these vacancies."

Some students asked: "Mr. Chen Mo, what do you mean by vacancies?"

Chen Mo replied: "The game is equivalent to a form of expression. The game compartment is just one of the carriers. It also has advantages, but it also has disadvantages. It is impossible to meet all the needs of everyone. For a simple example, in fact, the handheld Even now, there is still room for survival. It’s just that no one is doing it."

Everyone was stunned.

Handheld?

There are also handhelds in the parallel world. The so-called handheld, in fact, is a handheld game console, the main feature is that you can play in your hand.

However, the world's handhelds have not been fully developed and soon disappeared, because technology has developed rapidly. With the advancement of technology, smartphones have become popular, and handhelds have been completely replaced by mobile games.

It is true that there is a high degree of duplication between the handheld and the mobile phone. In the eyes of the designers of the world, most of the functions of the handheld can be implemented on the mobile phone. If so, why bother to pay for one? What about the handheld?

Therefore, after hearing this kind of remarks by Chen Mo, everyone was surprised because the handheld is a game carrier that has been eliminated. This is a recognized fact in the game industry.

Several lecturers and professors in the back row are frowning. What is the situation? How can Chen Mo tell this common sense mistake?

A courageous student raised his hand and said: "Mr. Chen Mo, are you sure that there is still room for the handheld in this era? The functions of the handheld and the mobile phone are highly repetitive, and the mobile phone can do things. But why do you want to buy a handheld? It doesn't make sense."

Chen Mo smiled: "Because I said the handheld, it is not the kind of handheld you think. You all imagine the handheld as a mobile phone that can't make calls to install other software, right?"

The students face each other, is there any difference?

Can the handheld not install other software or call? What is the difference between other phones and mobile phones?

Chen Mo said: "If you assume that there is a handheld, we can play open world games on it; there are real joysticks and real buttons on it, which is better than the virtual joystick of the mobile phone; very convenient, anytime, anywhere I can play. So how many people do you think will be bought?"
