Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Both players and game media in the industry were stunned when they heard Chen Xu's voice in the live broadcast room, and it took them a long time to react.

New...new IP?

There are a lot of black question marks in the minds of countless people.

Especially players who like "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" are covering their hearts with their hands at this time.

This great joy and great sorrow came so quickly, they couldn't bear such excitement!

Just talking about the genre, they immediately thought of these classic contents from Nebula Games.

Moreover, combined with the open world, aprg, rich equipment system, partial decryption and epic magical plot mentioned by Chen Xu, the first impression that many players think of is "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", a game that has brought great influence. Open world game.

Despite its name, Girls Scroll makes people feel that this game has become a bit unseemly.

But the customs and customs of Skyrim Province and the story of catching root treasures make players extremely addicted.

As a result, now, let them make such a big expression and tell them that this is a new IP?

‘Damn it, do you want to beat Mr. Chen to death? ? ’

‘+1, I announced the tags one by one. I thought it would be a sequel to the big IP, but it turned out to be a brand new masterpiece! ’

'grass! Mr. Chen would act in the past, but this time it was obviously intentional! ? ’

Countless players were speechless. The new IP was not something that surprised them.

Because compared to other game manufacturers in the industry, Nebula Games rarely develops sequels, and more often uses DLC content to complete the subsequent story of the game.

But this time Chen Xu’s actions were really a bit unusual. He announced a new project so quickly, and he also held a rare online press conference to introduce it in person, and when he introduced the label, he was so appetizing. The players were misunderstood.

However, after venting their anger on the barrage, the players' curiosity was soon aroused.

Because judging from these content points, this is very likely to be an aprg similar to "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim"!

And the name is also very similar.

‘Elden’s Ring should be the same as the Ancient Scrolls, right? An important prop in the game? ’

‘As for the English name, I think it’s better to call it elder! How nice the old man’s ring sounds! ’

‘But I feel like the translation is not very accurate. ’

‘You guys are toxic. You are always discussing what translators are for. What matters is whether the game is fun or not? ’

‘Is the game good? Why, Mr. Chen just announced a name, how do I know if it’s fun or not? ’

‘Stop talking, Mr. Chen seems to be announcing more news! ’

The barrages flooded the screen and couldn’t be stopped at all.

Chen Xu also paused for a while during the introduction to allow players some time to digest.

After a while, Chen Xu continued to speak.

"Compared with previous open worlds, in "Elden Ring" players will adventure on vast scenes with different themes, such as volcanoes, corrupted scarlet lands, mysterious underground ruins, swamps and lakes, snowfields and grasslands."

"At the same time, in the game, players can choose a variety of free gameplay, challenge difficult bosses when they are born, or explore unknown worlds to grow up."

As Chen Xu finished speaking, the original paintings corresponding to different locations were appropriately released in the live broadcast room.

The magnificent starry sky of the Eternal City, the snow-covered mountains, the magnificent golden trees, the ruined Sky City suspended by mysterious power, the desolate and corrupt Galid...

Especially the Golden Tree and the Eternal City, these two scene original paintings have excited countless players.

Just like Chen Xu said, you can feel the epic magical theme just by looking at it!

However, just when the players' expectations were already full, Chen Xu's voice in the live broadcast room in the next second made countless players dumbfounded.

"Finally, thank you all for watching today's online press conference. Stay tuned for more news about "Elden's Ring"."

After the words fell, an icon logo appeared on the screen.

Several golden rings are intertwined, and a golden light pillar connects them in series. From a distance, it looks like a towering tree.

At the same time, the name of the game "Elden's Ring" is written next to it.

Finished... finished?

Seeing the live broadcast room with a black screen, all the players were stunned.

‘Fuck! Damn it! I’m so fucking gone? ’

'no! What about the promotional trailer? What about character introductions? ’

‘A few original paintings, but a logo is gone? This is the folder you just created! ? ’

'That's it? That’s it, Mr. Chen, why don’t you just post it on your official blog? Is there still a need to hold an online press conference? ! ’

All the players rioted, and their expectations were high. They were looking forward to some bigger news.

As a result, now you tell them that there will be no more?

Mr. Chen, where is your conscience?

I guess I just need to create a new folder for a project like this! ?

With the online press conference, "Elden's Ring" was not a big hit, but the topic of "beat Mr. Chen to death" became popular again.

The players’ resentment is really too strong!

……………………

"These players are still too young! What do you mean by creating a new folder? This is obviously not created!"

In the office of Nebula Games, Yang Xin looked at the players rioting online and couldn't help but sigh.

Don’t they, the members of the core group, still know?

We have just mobilized people from each team, and the few original game concept drafts at the live broadcast were still rushed out at short notice.

And if players watch carefully, they will find a feature.

Those are the original paintings, which are obviously of a scene style.

To put it simply, except for theme scenes such as snow mountains, starry sky, grasslands, and volcanoes, you can’t see anything more detailed.

Why?

Isn’t this time limited?

Delicate things, such as scene creation and architecture, must not be carefully crafted?

If it covers a large scene, it is much simpler. It is more about showing the direction of the theme. After all, it is not an art painting. It is enough to show the theme style.

"Don't talk nonsense. Didn't I have a meeting with you before?"

Chen Xu coughed slightly and said.

Player riot?

He is not the same person now.

When he saw the player's behavior at that time, he would be depressed and worried, and even wanted to change the player's impression.

But now?

He can even watch the players' performances and eat snacks happily.

"Although it is a Souls game, this time it is different from the previous development of "Dark Souls" and "Bloodborne"."

"Because it is presented in an open world, in terms of difficulty, this will be the easiest one, but it will also be the most difficult one." Chen Xu said while looking at everyone.

Hearing Chen Xu talk about the serious business of the game, everyone stopped smiling and became serious.

Soul games have always had an impact on players, that is, hardcore and high difficulty.

Fragmented plot, grand settings, and clever map design are indeed the hallmarks of Souls games.

But in fact, this has never been the main core element of Souls games.

The real main core is how players can gain happiness after challenging high difficulty levels.

And this was also the core idea of ​​Hidetaka Miyazaki in his previous life.

Let as many players as possible experience the joy of overcoming difficulties. This is the main core of the Soul series.

Death is no longer a sign of failure in the Souls game, but has been given a meaning.

Die in a funny or weird way, or this death can create a story that can be shared, gain more experience from death, and try various methods to defeat the invincible enemy. This cycle is the Souls game. The joy it brings.

In the previous life, "Elden's Ring" made many players complain that there were too many ways to skip classes in the game. But in fact, it was precisely because of this that Miyazaki Hidetaka in his previous life called "Elden's Ring" a masterpiece. do.

By honing his skills, he became a master and defeated the boss that bothered him. He learned to use ashes and awesome combat skills to defeat the enemy. Or the Shilipo Sword God turned himself into a blood bull and the last two swords struck the boss instantly.

These are all players who have found ways to defeat their enemies, but the methods are different.

As for many so-called old Souls players who think that playing mage and recruiting hardcore guys are just skipping classes and making the Souls game lose its meaning. Only useless people who go out and kill all the bosses with a big chicken leg stick are the real Souls game players. This statement is completely ridiculous and even laughable.

Because the purpose of the Souls game itself is not to be difficult, to make players suffer, but to allow players to learn how to defeat enemies through setbacks, and then feel the joy that comes from overcoming difficulties.

What is a veteran soul player?

The despicable terrain kills card tombstones, the shameless poisonous arrows and flying knives. Only those who are proficient in these operations are called veteran soul players!
