I Make Games To Scare Crying Players

Chapter 163: Dark Forest VR Project

  Chapter 163 Dark Forest VR Project

  E3 exhibition, in the original world, is an abbreviation of words starting with three letters E.

  Its Chinese name is Electronic Entertainment Expo.

   itself is the world's largest and most well-known business exhibition and video game conference.

  In human terms, the main purpose of the E3 exhibition is to provide a stage for major manufacturers in the game industry to throw big moves at each other.

  Here, let them show their most valued and most valuable products.

  Therefore, the main audiences of E3 are merchants and media.

  However, the big moves of these manufacturers are not finished products.

  It’s just a CG, or a real machine demonstration.

  The purpose is to attract the attention of merchants and media, warm up the game in advance, attract investment and sponsorship, etc.

  So, for the players in the original world, the so-called E3 exhibition is just a painting conference.

  And these cakes may overturn.

  For example, some manufacturers may announce games that are cool, cool and realistic demonstrations of actual devices, which makes players excited and eager to buy the experience immediately.

  But when the game was actually released, I realized that what I had in my hands was far from the real machine demo, and there were signs of castration everywhere, and I became one of the countless "buyer shows".

   There are also manufacturers who are full of confidence when they announce the game, and its quality makes players feel that it has great potential.

  But a few months later, it suddenly broke out that the game development was terminated, or the development chaos was postponed indefinitely, or there was simply no news, etc., which is regrettable.

  Or a certain manufacturer announced a few seconds of CG of a certain game, but there was nothing in it, and a title and scene were shown, which made the audience who had been looking forward to it for nearly ten years excited.

   Then a few years later, I found out that even the folder hadn't been built yet.

   Therefore, it is different from the expectations of Chinese players for the exhibition. In the eyes of some foreign players, instead of participating in E3, queue up among the crowd for an hour to experience the game demo for a few minutes, or watch the developer's embarrassing press conference with no speech level.

  Then it’s better to wait at home and wait for others to release the edited video released by the game.

   At least a little more comfortable.

  Therefore, the E3 exhibition is a place where game manufacturers pretend to be drafts to attract the attention of players and the media.

  It is also a good place to promote your key game projects.

   Through the memories of the original body, Meng Shu discovered that the same is true for E3 in the parallel world.

   As the top manufacturer in China, Infinity Online Entertainment is still developing a game, so they will naturally not miss a promotional exhibition like this.

  In that case, will Meng Shu miss it?

   Obviously not.

   "Next month?"

  Meng Shu put down his phone, thoughtful.

   Then, a decision was made in my heart.

   "Originally, I planned to make the game one by one according to the plan. Since there is E3, let's learn "Black Myth" first, and make a real machine demonstration of the new game."

   "As for the finished product, it is still in line with the plan, and it will be ranked behind "Dark Forest"."

   "Anyway, everyone came here to draw cakes, so I will follow suit this time."

  Thinking of this, Meng Shu smiled.

  Then picked up the phone and replied to Mr. Liang, there were only three words on it.

  [Of course there is. ]

   At this time, Yang Ying, who was working overtime, suddenly received a message from Mr. An on the company intranet.

  It was a screenshot of Danmaku Shuoguang’s response, and the support and dreams on it were clearly displayed.

   Mr. An himself sent a question.

  [What do they mean by this? Want to copy our game with the same theme? I don't allow them to copy us over and over again! ]

  Seeing Mr. An's news, Yang Ying suddenly felt dizzy.

   What happened to the only game?

   What did they post?

  Yang Ying ignored Mr. An, but clicked on the screenshot first, carefully read Shuoguang's response on Danmaku.com, and then... his head got bigger...

   "They also want to make a space sci-fi game. This is very difficult. How should I explain it to Mr. An..."

  Yang Ying looked at Mr. An's head and felt tired.

  It is really messing around to have such an outsider as the leader of the stall.

  He, Yang Ying, is just the person in charge of the game development team. Things like this between the media and social networks are out of his control.

  Why send it to me? What does this question mean?

   Moreover, it is their freedom to choose what subject matter the rival company chooses.

  Maybe the only game is that I saw my "Blood Scientist" is a space sci-fi theme, so I want to do it too?

   There is nothing wrong with this.

  If it is a friendly business, you may choose to avoid it more or less, but isn’t Unlimited Online Entertainment a competitor?

  There is nothing wrong with them choosing the same theme. What is Mr. An thinking about?

   Is it possible to prohibit others from doing space science fiction themes?

  Yang Ying has a headache.

   I don't know how to explain the subject matter of the game to Mr. An, an outsider.

  After all, there are only a few games on the market, and how many games released in a year hit the same theme.

  Your family has made a game with the theme of modern warfare, hey, my family is also planning to make a game of modern warfare.

   I can’t just change future wars or ancient wars just because your family did it.

   It is really unpredictable that themes like this collide, or you just want to follow the trend and do the same theme.

   But since it happened, what can be done?

   You can't criticize severely, can you? It doesn't make sense...

  Yang Ying rubbed his head, thought for a while, and typed to respond.

  [Mr. An, I'm really sorry, I don't know what they mean. ]

Snapped-

  The keypad beeps lightly, and the message is sent.

  After more than ten seconds, Yang Ying felt something was wrong, and felt that this reply should not be what Mr. An wanted to see.

   So he added another sentence.

  [But our games will attract players to buy before them, because our games are the first to create the combination of 'horror' + 'shooting', and it is a sci-fi theme that is not found in horror games. So we have great advantages, even our competitors are envious to express their support, success is certain! Our development team will also seize the time to optimize and adjust in the remaining time to make the game better presented! ]

   After typing, Yang Ying carefully read it twice, and when he felt that there was no problem, he pressed send.

  Then, he slumped on the chair as if liberated, his eyes glazed over.

  "I can't guess what other people will do, I can only try my best to do what I'm responsible for. So what other moths, you ask me, I know shit!"

   After finishing speaking, Yang Ying leaned on the chair and rubbed his swollen head.

   At this moment, he had an idea that he didn't want to do it anymore.

   Then he was startled for a moment, and quickly shook his head to dismiss this thought.

   "What am I thinking? This is a technical game. Being able to enter such a company and lead a team alone is already enviable. Why don't I want to do it?"

  After shaking off this idea, Yang Ying got up and looked at his colleagues in the same group who were working overtime outside the office, feeling speechless for a moment.

   At this moment, he vaguely guessed.

  Maybe jump group... will be decided by this game...

   Time passed day by day.

   "Control Failure" is also becoming more and more popular as the progress of the main line progresses.

  The major communities and Danmaku.com have new content discovered and published by players every day.

   Earn a lot of clicks and plays.

   As for Meng Shuxin's company, the installation has also been completed.

  The originally planned gymnasium, entertainment room, pantry, etc. have also been put into use.

  Fang Yuancheng, the art director, also officially came to work in the company, working with Xia Nianzhen and Qiu Yuan.

   After everyone returned to work, Meng Shu announced the development plan for the VR version of "Dark Forest".

   Then a meeting was held to explain in detail the concept design of "Dark Forest" presented by the system when they traveled through time.

  Let a group of employees lament the grandness, tranquility and eerieness of the forest in the game.

   From this point of view, the reason why "Dark Forest" adopts the design of the bird's-eye view is to consider the player's tolerance, so this perspective is used in disguise to reduce the horror atmosphere.

   Horrible... Really scary...

   Now, Boss Meng is finally going to develop the VR version of "Dark Forest".

   At that time, what awaits the players is the unprecedented extreme horror in the strange forest...!

  After the meeting, the next step is the recruitment of employees.

   At this point, Meng Shu no longer paid attention to it, and directly handed over full authority to the old employees.

   Take Chen An for example, he is responsible for recruiting task designers. Xu Hong is responsible for recruiting animators, action designers, etc.

  Fang Yuancheng is responsible for recruiting the art professionals he needs.

  In short, the authority has been delegated, and everything is for the smooth progress of the work.

  And for the game "Dark Forest", Meng Shu planned to make a VR version a long time ago.

   But then shelved because of one work plan after another.

  During this period, people kept sending him private messages and comments asking whether they could see the VR version of "Dark Forest" in their lifetime.

   Meng Shu never responded to this.

   Now, the reason why I decided to develop a VR version is mainly because the popularity of "Dark Forest" is no less than that of the new "Control Failure".

  A PC horror game from a year ago is as popular as the latest VR masterpiece?

How can this be! ?

  Thus, Meng Shu searched the Internet before and found out the crux of the problem.

   is a MOD…

   Players have made a considerable amount of MOD for "Dark Forest" to maintain the gameplay.

  In the entire Danmaku.com, a search for the keyword dark forest, except for a few customs clearance videos collected throughout the process, are some MOD display videos.

  In addition to the common backpack expansion and infinite backpack MOD, it is bullet double and infinite bullet MOD.

   There are also mods such as teleportation mods, in-place save mods, unlimited skills mods, safe house boards are not easy to break mods, etc.

   There is also infinite durability MOD, which is easy to make MOD.

   Even more powerful, there must be additional map mods and new branch mods.

   It can be said that it gave "Dark Forest" a second spring.

   It's no wonder that its popularity is still comparable to "Control Invalidation" one year after it was released. It turns out that there are such a group of fanatics who insist on it.

  But I have to say that "Dark Forest" does have such a charm.

  After overthrowing the shameful title of "horror games are a joke" in one fell swoop, the charm of this genre is gradually being amplified.

  The appearance of "Dark Forest" is not only the first game in the world to be truly called the term "horror".

  More, it opened the door to the horror game market and established the position of horror games under other categories.

  It is also the game "Dark Forest", which is the first time to truly bring fear to players and tell them what is called fear.

  A game like this with the meaning of "new pioneering" can indeed be deeply remembered by players.

   Because of this, I kept asking Meng Shu whether there is a possibility of VR.

   So, after a lapse of one year.

  When Meng Shu saw the enthusiasm of the players, he decided to give "Dark Forest" a major upgrade.

   But he did not announce it.

  Because he intends to give the players an unexpected surprise.

  Let them know that I take all your requests into account!

  …

   At this time, Boss Meng was busy with work.

  Banana, who was far away in Yucheng, suddenly looked confused.

  He looked at the things collected in "Control Failure", and his expression gradually changed to disbelief.

   Throat, continuous surge, swallowing continuously.

   "I say... the protagonist of this parallel world... is too..."

   "It's a little impossible... I'll play around... see if it's true..."

   Saying that, Brother Banana put on VR again.

   Pushed the progress and combined the content of two or three chapters into one chapter.
