Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Elemental World, which was promoted as an open world, achieved high word-of-mouth, but it didn't translate into high sales.

On the contrary, "Uncharted" as a linear game has achieved explosive sales, which has also aroused the thinking of many game designers.

Is the quality of "Elemental World" inferior to "Uncharted"?

Not really, although the quality of "Uncharted Sea" is indeed very explosive, in fact "Elemental World" is not very bad, otherwise there is no way to get such a high evaluation.

At the same time, many designers have focused on open world and linear games.

In the past two years, a "Red Dead Redemption" and "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" have made many game manufacturers focus on the theme of the open world.

It seems that the open world has become the cipher of wealth.

But now that it's open, is the open world really good?

Many game designers are also starting to analyze.

If "Elemental World" is a linear mode, not an open world.

Let players go all the way, so that the difficulty of decryption is designed to be easy first and then difficult.

Just like "Monster Hunter: World", the dragons in the early stage were appetizers, and the difficulty increased sharply when it came to the horned dragon.

Will such a design make game sales usher in an explosion?

Many game designers in the industry are having discussions.

However, for players, although "Elemental World" is excellent, they still choose "Uncharted" after all, it is more fun to play.

And thanks to the fact that "Element World" itself also has a color of decryption and adventure treasure hunt, it has made "Uncharted Sea" a little hot.

At the same time, many players are looking forward to the follow-up more.

After all, from the perspective of content and various hints, "Uncharted" still has three DLC content in development!

Golden Township, Shangri-La, and the City of a Thousand Pillars, these legendary ruins can be said to hang players' appetites firmly.

And throughout the confrontation,

The injured zeus finally made a decision this time.

That is to change partners.

For Zeus, World of Elements was clearly a very miserable failure.

Although the quality of the game is very good, the reputation is also very good.

Can't help the zeus platform to expand its territory, what's the use?

The benefits are taken by others, but the final pot is carried by oneself, who can withstand this!

For zeus, first of all, its own platform is definitely no problem.

And the propaganda is also completely in place.

Where is the problem?

There is no doubt that Atari is the partner.

If the game is not done well, it must be your company's problem.

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare", "Red Dead Redemption" and this time "Uncharted Sea", except for Nebula Games last year to go to switch, Atari is proud of the new era VR market, the rest of the time is all Hang and beat!

So Zeus executives made a decision after discussions.

That is, don't put your hope in a third party!

They do it themselves first!

They have the technology, and they also have the money!

The momentum of "Uncharted" has passed, and the popularity of "Elemental World" has gradually declined.

At this time, many players got a heavy news.

That is, zeus spent huge sums of money to acquire FOW, an old European game manufacturer, with a turnover of up to 2.1 billion US dollars.

Of course, this acquisition is obviously impossible to discuss now. In fact, zeus has also been in contact with major game manufacturers for a long time.

The failure of "Element World" this time has obviously made Zeus anxious.

And the failure of "Elemental World" is a foregone conclusion, so there is no need for Zeus to continue wasting time in this area.

At the same time, on the official website of zeus, a new project code-named 'Medieval' was also announced.

………………

Players are also discussing in various ways about Zeus's greatness.

After all, FOW is also a well-known game manufacturer in the industry.

This game manufacturer is a famous game company for historical themes. As for the work, it has always been criticized, that is, it is reluctant to spend money.

It takes another year to tinker, and unless it is absolutely necessary, the picture will never be renewed.

This time, it was acquired by zeus. Players who like FOW, a game manufacturer, not only did not feel sad, but they all shouted with excitement.

I found a rich big man, and FOW will develop the game in the future. This picture can always go up, right?

On major domestic forums, players are also discussing.

"This time, the FOW shotgun has been replaced by a cannon, and I have found a rich owner."

"Yeah, I have been unable to play the works of this game company in the past, mainly because the pictures always keep up with the times. Now I feel that I should be able to look forward to it."

"Don't say FOW, don't you care about the progress of the "Uncharted" DLC trilogy?"

"Recently, there has been a lot of movement in Nebula games, and the VR theme has also received an update. It's just that President Chen is a little bit inappropriate!"

"Fuck! That's right, the theme scene of "Escape", I was scared to pee when I didn't turn on the awake mode before."

"So why do you have to enter the theme scene of "Escape"?"

"By the way, no one pays attention to the 'medieval' project on Zeus' side?"

"It's only a code name that doesn't even have a shadow, so what are you concerned about? And NetDragon's "Operation Shadow: Communication Interruption" will also be online, but I'm more concerned about Mr. Chen, the DLC content of "Uncharted" should be ready soon right?"

"You think too much, just read the official blog news! President Chen and the others have gone to the group building tour together!"

Many players were discussing some recent gaming circles online, but soon a topic became the focus.

That is, Mr. Chen didn't play games and went to travel?

Many people were puzzled when they heard the news.

They opened Chen Xu's official blog and took a look.

I saw that Chen Xu's official blog had just released a new message ten minutes ago. UU Reading www.uukanshu. com

Compared with the previous announcements about the content of new works, this content seems out of place.

‘First stop: Florence, check in the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore! ’

In a simple sentence, there are also photos of Chen Xu, Ruan Ningxue, Yang Xin, Qin Yi, Meng Zuo, and other Nebula game backbones, as well as photos of local landmarks.

Countless players were dumbfounded.

We all thought that Mr. Chen, you were playing games like crazy, and there has been no movement, just to make the trilogy DLC of "Uncharted" as soon as possible, or to prepare for new games and new projects, but you are here. travel! ?

And it's still a long-distance tour, so I think Florence is still the first stop? There is a second stop, a third stop, a fourth stop?

With the release of Chen Xu's official blog, many players who paid attention were immediately confused.

Are you Nebula Games a game company or a holiday club!
