I want to make a game

Minecraft has not yet officially formed a development team, but news about it has already spread.

Liu Zhiyuan personally rated the game with a score of 9.9. This score alone made this unseen game instantly popular.

"Although I haven't seen the true appearance of this game, I have prepared the money, Han Dynasty, hurry up!"

"'Minecraft', as the name suggests, is a huge game. I'm looking forward to it!"

"This is the Han Dynasty. This is my favorite Han Dynasty. It's not who you buy today and who you buy tomorrow. It's the Han Dynasty that keeps developing super games!"

"The most prolific game producer in history. When the God of Games puts all his energy into games, the world will change because of him!"

"..."

Many people have truly realized for the first time how powerful the name of the God of Games is.

They didn't do anything, just a word of evaluation could make a game so popular. They admitted that they felt sad.

And Liu Zhiyuan did not make many expectant players wait any longer. The first promotional video of Minecraft was quickly broadcast simultaneously around the world.

A pixelated square man wearing a blue T-shirt appeared in a forest...

"This style of painting..."

"It seems to be another game that covers all ages."

"To be honest, I'm not very interested."

"A bit disappointed..."

"..."

The Minecraft promotional video has been watched by nearly 200 million people, and most of them lost interest after seeing the picture.

Steve started building his own cabin in the forest.

"Is it a construction-type game? It looks pretty good, but can't the style of the game be changed?"

"It seems to be an open game world, let's take a look..."

"Forget it, for the sake of the God of Games, I'll just finish it."

"..."

Ding Lei nervously stared at the real-time ratings of "Minecraft" because he was almost entirely responsible for the promotion this time.

Liu Zhiyuan just gave him a simple plan and then turned around to develop the game. This was an opportunity but also a huge pressure.

When he saw that the ratings began to drop rapidly, he became nervous instantly.

If this game did not reach the level Liu Zhiyuan evaluated, then most people in the Han Dynasty would never blame Liu Zhiyuan, they would only blame him.

Nowadays, no one underestimates the promotion of a game. Don’t forget that the current status of the games of the Han Dynasty is inseparable from the huge promotion feasts.

In the video, Steve has already built his own cabin, and soon he built a fence around the cabin, planted crops, and then grabbed a few cattle and sheep from the wild...

"I kind of like it. This casual style is very interesting."

"It's not a fight, what's the point?"

"Is this a game that simulates a real-world background? If not, I hope to raise a group of elves."

"It's very interesting. It's this style of painting that I really can't accept."

"..."

Steve put on his travel bag and was ready to go. He jumped off the cliff, the camera shot everything, and the background music became cheerful.

"My God, it's the pyramids, the pyramids made of those blocks."

"Elfa Tower!"

"The Great Wall, it's the Great Wall!"

"Statue of Liberty, oh my god, could this game do all this world building on its own?"

"Cool, so cool, this is a world made of blocks!"

"I understand the meaning of this style of painting, I understand..."

"..."

Flying on his wings, Steve flew over world-famous scenic buildings one after another until he stopped at the top of the Oriental Pearl Tower...

"call..."

Looking at the rapidly rising ratings, Ding Lei breathed a deep sigh of relief. The plummeting ratings just now almost didn't scare him to death.

The camera quickly rotated towards Steve's face. Suddenly, Steve showed a shocked expression. The camera changed and came to Steve's perspective.

"A candle dragon actually appeared on the Himalayas! Although it is ugly, I guarantee that it is a candle dragon!"

"Is that Amazon down there?"

"Can this game still be played like this!?"

"Okay, okay, it's a good game, but sorry, I prefer hot-blooded fighting."

"..."

Scenery parties usually appear in games with gorgeous special effects, but Minecraft obviously breaks this convention, and countless casual players have decided to fall into the trap.

After walking around for a while and enjoying the famous scenery around the world, a blue magic door appeared in front of Steve.

I saw Steve putting his hand on the magic door. The next moment, he was dragged in, and the background music suddenly became intense.

The colors are dim, flames are spreading everywhere, and block monsters are constantly chasing and killing ordinary pixel people.

"Whoosh..."

A shield with a white five-pointed star suddenly flew out and knocked down a monster. No matter how abstract the shield was, it was still recognizable to super game fans at a glance.

The next moment, countless spectators cheered wildly, and in the distance they saw a pixel man wearing Captain America's uniform throwing a shield.

"Liu, what are you waiting for? This world needs you to save..."

Captain America spoke to the pixel man in blue. Liu Zhiyuan made a change here. He changed the name of the protagonist of the game.

When it was originally named, Liu Zhiyuan became the name with the highest number of votes, and after the developers of the Han Dynasty fully understood Minecraft, they went crazy.

This is an unprecedentedly huge game. It can even be said that this is a complete electronic world.

As Liu Zhiyuan is the creator god of this world, the protagonist's name must be him. Of course, Liu Zhiyuan refused in the end, but the surname stayed.

"The world is bigger than you imagine!"

"Buy! I bought it. No matter how difficult it is to make these equipments, I vow to build my own superhero city!"

"Does Liu mean Liu Zhiyuan? Is the protagonist of this game based on the God of Games?"

"..."

While the audience was still surprised by Captain America, Liu opened the forge beside him, energy gems, iron ore, silk... amid the passionate background music.

In the stunned silence of countless spectators, a Spider-Man suit appeared.

And when Liu put on the Spider-Man suit, there were bursts of footsteps in the game. The camera turned with Liu, and superheroes appeared behind Captain America, in versions from various countries!

The pixel man in the image of Sun Wukong rushed into the group of monsters first, followed closely by Iron Man, Flash, Lu Bu... well-known figures all rushed over.

"How much, I just want to know how much this game costs!"

“It’s coming out soon, I can’t fucking wait!”

"..."

Next, Liu took the audience to experience various worlds and gameplays.

Minecraft is completely popular. Even people who don’t know much about games can see from this promotional video how huge this game is.

In just one month, Minecraft promotional videos were broadcast one after another, and each broadcast was a ratings carnival for those TV channels.

"Every year, Minecraft will select an award for the world's best architecture, regardless of subject, with a prize of US$10 million."

"Every year, Minecraft will select a best creative award, regardless of subject, with a prize of US$10 million."

"Every year, Minecraft will select..."

"At the same time, Minecraft will open a world server. Every player can upload his or her works to the game community, and can set the download price and share ratio. The author will charge 8, and the community will charge 2 as operating expenses."

"..."

At the end of each promotional video, there is a reward mechanism that makes players around the world crazy.

Especially when the Han Dynasty announced that Minecraft was a free game, the most direct reflection of players' expectations for it was that it topped the game expectation list and the expectation value was crushing the second place.

"Mr. Ding, this is a call from Lego."

Ding Lei took the call with a solemn expression. He had known for a long time that Lego would call.

It wasn't that he knew that Lego would definitely come, but Liu Zhiyuan told him that Lego would not let go of this building block game. If it wanted to maintain its position in the building block world, they would definitely come.

"Hello, I'm Mr. Liu's secretary, Ding Lei."

"Hello, I am the CEO of Lego..."

"..."

Liu Zhiyuan didn't interfere much in this discussion. He just told Ding Lei his bottom line. He didn't care how the conversation was carried out. Li Huagui would keep an eye on it.

On June 1st, International Children's Day, LEGO announced a piece of news, a piece of news confirming the status of Minecraft, a game that has not yet been released.

"Lego has officially reached a strategic partnership with the Han Dynasty, and the 'Minecraft' building blocks will be released simultaneously on the day the game is released."

"At the same time, the 'Minecraft' building block competition will officially start on that day. Every year, a best creation award will be selected, with no limit on the theme, and a prize of 10 million US dollars. The competition is organized by LEGO and Han Dynasty subsidiary 'Tongle'

Jointly hosted.”

This news made countless building block enthusiasts shout long live the Han Dynasty. It also made many toy companies nervous.

For example, Han Dynasty’s partners, Bandai and Dome.

Their president flew to Shanghai overnight. There was nothing they could do. Now their two companies could be said to rely on the Han Dynasty for survival. If the Han Dynasty no longer needed them, it would not be impossible for the company to collapse overnight!

Who allowed the Han Dynasty to monopolize almost all game character images, and who allowed the Han Dynasty to have super IP recognized by several players!

The key is that this industry really has no technical content, especially for a super company like the Han Dynasty that is not short of money.

It wasn't until Liu Zhiyuan told them personally that he would cooperate normally in the future and would not abandon them, that the two presidents felt at ease.

At the same time, countless businessmen from China also came over. The Tongle Toy Factory is an open tender, and the Han Dynasty subsidiary will not participate in production and will only be responsible for operations.

"9.9 rating, no doubt 9.9 rating!"

"10 points. It is really not as simple as a video game. This is a game that everyone can enjoy in a real sense. It is not only fun, but also has intellectual effects."

"Rudimentary painting style? This is just a technical trade-off. Think about it, in such a huge world, if the picture quality is like that of Monkey King, I am afraid that no one can play it except for a few supercomputers.

,10 points!"

"No one thinks that the Han Dynasty can't produce gorgeous special effects, right? In my opinion, this style of painting is the real reason why it got 10 points from me!"

"Don't Starve is actually of this type. I finally understand why President Liu only gave Don't Starve a rating of 8. If there had been 'Minecraft' first, then I would never have given Don't Starve a rating of 9.5!"

"The seamless combination of games and reality. This is a super game that will definitely go down in history. 10 points!"

"..."

That is to say, the game score must only reach one digit after the decimal point, otherwise the score of Minecraft will be infinitely close to 9.999...

None of the raters in the entire game industry gave a score below 9.9. In fact, more than half of them gave it a score of 10. You know, it would be extremely difficult to get these people to score a 10!

After all, no game is perfect. It will always have some flaws. These people are professional critics, but in my world, it is rare for these people to have no faults.

"Han Dynasty, hurry up. I have already opened my wallet to you. Whether it is the latest Zhulong computer or something else, hurry up and let it come out!"

"Man upstairs, don't rush me. Please give those developers some time. I don't want to play a half-finished game."

"Yes, although we are anxious, we want to play a real finished game."

"If you're in a hurry, why not go play Don't Starve first?"

"..."

Don’t Starve has become popular again because of Minecraft, and many people in this forum have already begun to prepare for Minecraft.

They actually started playing Minecraft in Don’t Starve. God knows how much these players really want that game.

Even Liu Zhiyuan, who is devoted to the game, heard the news. He knew that Minecraft would be popular. This is a game that will be popular no matter in which time, space and era.

Regardless of whether it is promoted or not, it will eventually become the most successful sandbox game. He is convinced of this. After all, this is a new world, a new world created by the players.

But he really didn't expect it to be so popular. This game is still far from being released, at least until 2000!

Don’t think that Minecraft is a simple game just because the graphics look simple. Just ask the branch that makes memory and how stressed it is now.

Using plug-ins to develop MODs and developing original games are completely different concepts. The programmers in the Han Dynasty were going crazy, and the art team was almost the same.

It is very difficult for players to see what they want to express from pixel figures, much more difficult than those with real 3D graphics!

Amidst the noise, the time came to August 1st, the premiere day of the World of Warcraft movie.

From the first day, it has continuously broken various records in the film and television industry. This is a special effects movie through and through. It is another super special effects movie in the Han Dynasty that attracted special effects companies from all over the world to come over and act as heroes!

Avatar originally caused turmoil in the world, and World of Warcraft has had an even greater impact.

If most of the audience in the past few days had read the World of Warcraft novels and came for the background of World of Warcraft, then they all came for the movie itself!

They don't care about Azeroth or race wars, they just come to see the special effects!
