I Develop Battlefield To Drive Global Players Crazy

There will be some new sports in the future.

For casual players, "Animal Crossing" is enough to make them addicted.

As for the core players, although it is not enough at present, "Super Mario: Odyssey" and the transplanted Black Soul and Monster Hunt can at least stabilize the military's heart.

"So next, our only weakness is the core player, because only here we can be replaced!"

Chen Xu looked at the two and said.

This is also one of the reasons why the old WII in the previous life succeeded, but the WIIU failed.

WIIU has no irreplaceable attributes for WII users, plus its own handheld is not like a handheld, and the living room host is not like the design flaw of the living room host.

So WIIU suffered a fiasco.

Not to others, but to themselves, to the casual players who let them reach the top in the first place, and the core players who didn't take care of it.

"We will continue to develop the leisure and somatosensory blue ocean user market, and then we need to have the core players of NS, not just rely on a "Super Mario: Odyssey" to support the facade."

"In addition to the sequel to Dark Souls, and the DLC content for Monster Hunter."

"Next, the game department will develop an open world game exclusively for NS!"

Chen Xu watched Gabe Newell and Iwata rush to the road.

At this time, the two of them were completely stunned.

They even had a little suspicion that they had heard it wrong.

NS, open world masterpiece...

Can these two keywords really be linked together? people.

Chapter 225 Zelda is heaven!

Iwata Chong and Gabe Newell's eyes widened.

The surprised expression was not concealed in the slightest, and showed directly on his face.

It is really just Chen Xu's words, it is too impactful.

Even though they are not designers specialized in game development, that doesn't mean they don't understand games.

If you want to say what is the most mainstream game type currently.

So whether it is players, media, or practitioners in the industry, they will all give the same answer: open world!

The "Grand Theft Auto" of Nebula Games caused a frenzy around the world, and it sold well at the same time.

This newly defined game type has also entered the field of vision of countless manufacturers.

This is not the first time that Nebula Games has exploded the industry.

The original "Ayrden Circle" and "Dark Souls" not long ago, and "Minecraft" like an evergreen tree.

Until now, this building block game is still selling well all over the world.

Moreover, its sales volume has jumped to become the highest-selling game of Nebula's "May Seven Seven" game.

It's not that no one studies it.

It's just that Minecraft can explode, except for the fun sandbox creation.

More importantly, it has created a community of MC players, which is the main reason for its longevity.

It can be said that its success is not only based on the game itself, but also comes from outside the game.

Especially now that VR, PC, mobile phones and pads, and even NS, which has just been released, have already taken the lead on all platforms.

It can be said that this is a game that cannot be copied successfully.

As for "Ayrden's Circle" and "Dark Souls", whether it is the level art or the world view, it can be said to be very in-depth.

On the contrary, the game "Grand Theft Auto", if you go deeper, has many core points.

But it's also a game that requires a lot of detail.

This directly leads to a situation, that is, the first sight of this game brings players more shocks in terms of pictures and details.

On the contrary, it is a refreshing gameplay, as well as a satirical and dark humorous plot, which can only be felt after careful experience.

For major game makers, the model of "Grand Theft Auto" is the best imitation.

It doesn't matter if the content is not comparable to the gameplay, as long as the art and picture details of the game can be stacked together, it is enough.

The effect of this is also immediate, and it is naturally impossible to achieve the results of "Grand Theft Auto".

But after putting on the skin of the open world, many games have achieved millions of sales.

After all, compared to the plot of the game and the level design and gameplay of the game, this kind of improvement on the screen has the most significant effect.

This also makes game practitioners, for the current concept of the open world, still stay on the super screen performance, high-intelligence AI logic, and rich details.

And this wrong idea, not only game practitioners, but many players also think that as long as the map is big enough to run around, it is a real open world.

"Mr. Chen, the configuration of NS can really support open world games?" Gabe Newell and Iwata Chong asked uncertainly.

They really can't imagine how the 'weak' performance of NS can handle open world games compared to mainstream PC and VR.

Before that, they didn't even think about porting "Grand Theft Auto" to NS.

But in the end, this practice was rejected, not that it could not be transplanted.

The resolution is reduced, the details are castrated, and it can still run smoothly at 30 frames.

But the key is that the taste of castration changes directly.

The charm of "Grand Theft Auto" itself is directly lost under such a transplant method.

"The key to an open world is two things, either focusing on the world or focusing on openness."

"Not only gorgeous graphics, but also a lot of game details are open world games."

"Okay, just leave the game content to the development team. You need to determine the follow-up publicity for core players, as well as negotiations with third-party game manufacturers."

After chatting with Gabe Newell and Iwata Chong for a while, after the two left, Chen Xu leaned on the sofa and stretched, took a piece of chocolate from the refrigerator in the office and chewed it in his mouth.

Then Chen Xu began to write the first draft of the concept of the new game.

In the words of the previous life, the old office was mentioned.

Many people think of the uncle plumber with a red hat for the first time, this is the mascot of Lao Ren.

But also except for this uncle plumber with a red hat.

There is also a boy who has opened up a whole new world for Lao Ren, holding a sword and a shield and wearing a green square hat

If you talk about open world games, you must choose a leader.

"Grand Theft Auto" and "The Elder Scrolls" are two milestones that cannot be avoided.

Because these two games are just that good, they are the two kings at the top of the open world pyramid.

Later open world games, almost all have learned their interpretation of the concept of open world.

Even "Red Dead Redemption" actually follows the open world concept of "Grand Theft Auto".

But when the warrior with a sword and a shield appeared, everything changed.

Because at the apex of the open world, there are more warriors wearing green square hats and holding swords and shields. It is "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild".

On the basis of the open world, it redefines the open world again......

This is the evaluation of the game industry to "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild".

Even some fanatical fan players said after the game was released that there are only two open world games in the world:

Breath of the Wild and other open world games.

As an IP game with a history of more than 30 years, The Legend of Zelda has created countless brilliance.

From the 2D era, it defines what a qualified ARPG should do.

The first game to have the function of saving progress and loading save files.

In the 3D era, Ocarina of Time is known as one of the greatest games of all time, because his related settings have influenced countless subsequent games, such as operation, UI interface, and gameplay.

In the back of the triangle power, the Wind Waker, Majora's Mask, the Shrinking Hat, the Princess of Twilight, the Sword of the Sky, etc., almost every work has a very unique place.

The more dreamlike fairytale-like Wind Waker and Shrinking Hat; the more grotesque and dark Majora's mask; and the first Twilight Princess with the most beautiful Zelda that prefers realistic art; and the somatosensory gameplay with the wii platform Sword of the sky...

But each has its own characteristics, but it has never been able to reach a height of Ocarina of Time.

At the time when everyone thought Ocarina of Time was the peak of the series.

Breath of the Wild came into being, and it was born just like the compliments that came before it.

Redefines open world games.

Labyrinth reasoning decryption, this is the core of the Zelda series that will never change.

But in this work, Breath of the Wild perfectly deciphers the action, exploration and labyrinth, and perfectly combines them to build an extraordinary open world.

Not only the temple labyrinth, but even the common ground 1.5 map, are the elements of decryption exploration in the game.

This is also the reason why players say that this game, its gameplay is almost visible to the naked eye.

'A certain game is the best in the world, but Zelda is God! ’

Fanatical fans shouted this slogan, crude but irrefutable.

Whether it is the quality of the game, or the impact of the series is well-deserved.

Even the emergence of Breath of the Wild made some players joke that they even got a NS when they bought the game.

That's one of the charms of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

For Chen Xu, choosing this game is obviously a unique choice for the core player group.

Another point is that the game "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" is compared to the storyline of the Legend of Zelda series.

Its timeline is listed separately.

Does not belong to any one of the origin line, defeat line, and victory line in the series.

This is also very beneficial for the development of a game.

Chapter 226 Zelda's Core Strength

The new handhelds of major manufacturers, although still in the stage of PPT.

But it still attracted the attention of many players.

After all, this wave is too fresh.

Who would have thought that many players would feel that they would be abandoned by the times, but this moment has become a new track for major game giants?

Although it is only a variety of conceptual handhelds, it can also see the direction that various manufacturers focus on.

Some focus on the content of the body sensation, and some focus on the configuration, it can be said that each has its own merits.

In the face of these, players are also eating big melons while playing with the NS in their hands.

...

As for this time, in the project conference room of Nebula Games.

Chen Xu confirmed the content of this new project with Ruan Xue and others.

The projector is already connected to the laptop.

A design concept draft that has been written in advance appeared on the big screen, as well as the name of the new work: "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild".

All were curiously watching what was on the big screen.

Before that, in fact, they had heard some news from within the company.

I know that this time it is a game on the NS handheld, and it will be a masterpiece of 18 open world.

But everyone is curious, how to present an open world on the NS with limited performance?

And what surprised them even more was the style of the game and the core settings.

On the big screen, there are two colorized concept drafts of the original painting.

A blond young man in a blue coat, with a bow and arrow in his hand, a sword and a shield in his hand, stood sideways on the top of the mountain and looked at the sun that was about to set in the distance.

At the same time, his name is written next to it: Link.
