Super Game Empire

Zhang Guoqiang was excited: "In the place where Sony is most proud of, defeat them fiercely! The thought of king versus king, head-to-head, makes me a little excited!"

Yang Yun nodded: "Guoqiang, you are responsible for the game program. Let's handle this together! You dare to compete with me in game production and want to poach people from my company? Sony is looking for death!"

This threat aroused everyone's fighting spirit. Who dares to compete with Long Teng in game production? It is indeed possible that the total number of games cannot be matched, but the number of high-quality classic games and the number of platinum palace-level games, who dares to say that he has made it?

Overcoming Dragon Soaring?

Take a look at the games that Mr. Yang has made. Either he doesn’t make them, or the ones he makes are top-notch games. Which game is not a groundbreaking one?

"For the game "Resident Evil", Laojing, please prepare Mikami Shinji and the original design for me. I will come to participate in the design in a few days. Let's not talk about it today."

Inoue Yanxiong nodded. He had heard of Shinji Mikami's name. This employee was either at the Shanghai R&D Center or staying at the Sega headquarters. He would just go back and check it out.

Yang Yun continued: "Except for "Resident Evil", "Thief" can be produced slowly, and the same goes for "The Expendables 2." My request is to release it by the end of this year, and one year is enough. In addition, I am in

What was said at the Tsinghua Carnival at Christmas was not a spur of the moment, the Chinese epic historical game "Up and Down Five Thousand Years" can also be launched now."

These games are not simple. "Resident Evil" is a survival horror AVG game that is more popular than "Tomb Raider". "Thief" has higher requirements on the 3D game engine. After it is completed, the Dragon 3D engine may be upgraded.

Changed to "Stereoscopic 4". "The Expendables 2" was torn between PC and SS versions, and was produced together with the movie script. As for "5,000 Years", Yang Yun had no idea at all.

Let’s gnaw on the most troublesome bone first!

Yang Yun said: "My idea for the game "Up and Down Five Thousand Years" is to connect Chinese history together, but I don't want to touch the prehistoric part, nor the era of the Yellow Emperor, the Xia and Shang dynasties related to the Romance of the Gods, and King Wu of Zhou

Conferring princes, because these contents contain fantasy and mythological content, they are not suitable for making historical games, and will be supplemented as extras or expansion packs in the future."

Official history is official history, and romance is romance. The mixing ratio of mud and sand must be appropriate to make a solid game.

Yang Yun said: "My requirement is that the game should not only have historical educational significance, but also have rich gameplay. Can you guys tell me how to design this game? We started after Fengshen Romance and spanned thousands of years.

How can people not get tired of playing the game for such a long time and make people want to play it more and more?"

This requirement is very high and cannot be achieved by the simple "Dragon Three Kingdoms" series. Because there are too many themes within thousands of years, and there is no such core theme as the Three Kingdoms, no one thought of any good ideas for a while.

Zhang Guoqiang said: ""Three Kingdoms" is only a part of history, and it is based on the familiar story of the Three Kingdoms. So players can get started quickly and have a sense of immersion. But for ordinary people like me, I think about the Tang Dynasty.

I know Li Shimin. I have read Water Margin in the Song Dynasty, and The Legend of the Condor Heroes in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. I know more about it in the Ming and Qing dynasties and in modern times, but how to connect them with a line? This needs to be carefully considered!"

Yes, everyone feels the same way!

This is the case with Chinese education. The book knowledge in history classes is the same thing. The only channels for acquiring other knowledge are television and newspapers. Literary novels are not very developed. In most people's impressions, many dynasties in ancient Chinese history are one piece.

Blank, for example, the Zhou Dynasty, the Five Dynasties and the Ten Kingdoms, most people can't even count the dynasties, they only know the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

Ma Liang said: "Can it be made into an RPG mode? We imagine an immortal cultivator, experience the four thousand years of history from the perspective of a bystander, and experience the historical changes through his eyes."

"You are just messing around! How can a historical game be connected with cultivating immortals? This is not Legend of Sword and Fairy!"

"No way! An old monster who has lived for thousands of years just to record history?"

Everyone criticized and glared, and Ma Liang shrank his neck, not daring to talk nonsense...

Hearing this, Yang Yun burst into laughter. The first thing he thought of was Han Li from "The Story of Mortal Cultivation of Immortality". Didn't this man only live for a few thousand years?

Han Li was born in Qingniu Town before cultivating immortality, and he achieved great success in the Nascent Soul stage. Hundreds of years ago, Qingniu Town was still the same. After sneaking into the spirit world, the human race continued to practice for thousands of years.

To be honest, the two industrial revolutions ushered in the era of modernization and high technology. Once artillery and laser weapons came out, we were still afraid of a monster with a hammer...

Thinking too far, Yang Yun rejected this suggestion: "It is difficult to complete a history that lasts for thousands of years through just one immortal cultivator protagonist. The most important thing is, how to let the immortal cultivators participate in major historical events? It is not easy to do.

!”

Zhang Guoqiang's eyes lit up: "I thought of the idea of ​​the "Terminator" movie and the novel "Qin Qin Ji"! Isn't there a time machine to be reborn and go back? A modern special forces soldier, in order to solve many major event questions raised by historians of modern society, travel through time

The machine can go back in time many times and participate in major events. After completing the task, you will pass the level, return to the present, and then enter the next major event. You don’t have to spend boring time in peaceful times, and you can only join during critical periods!”

This is a good idea! Yang Yun began to think about it, if he took the Tang Dynasty as an example.

You can make a copy of the Tang Dynasty founding war game for Li Yuan and Li Shimin's campaign. It is a real-time strategy game type. You can command the Li family's army to conquer other princes, and finally defeat the enemy's base and unify the Tang Dynasty.

Next is the conflict between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. The crusade against the Turks will be made into an adventure RPG copy game, or a comprehensive RPG in the mode of "Warcraft 1".

It is necessary to mention Wu Zetian, the empress of the Tang Dynasty, and create a palace fight RPG copy game.

Next is the Anshi Rebellion, making a copy of a real-time strategy game...

In this way, players follow the timeline again and again, play a certain role or force, complete the dungeon mission and return to the modern era. This way, there will be no wrong historical education or the feeling of being unable to substitute.

Yang Yun smiled and said: "This idea is partially adopted! Let's continue to speak freely..."

Zhang Guoqiang was encouraged and was a little happy, but his good friend Ma Liang couldn't help it and criticized: "You have multiple protagonists, and players are easily confused. And the major events you mentioned, such as Wu Sangui bringing in Qing soldiers,

Guan, according to official history, players must play Wu Sangui's side, so that they can win, and this is consistent with history.

But Wu Sangui was a traitor in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty at that time. You let the players who had just completed the mission of defending the country in the Ming Dynasty play the role of a traitor? Also, it is official history that he led the Qing troops into the pass. When Kangxi withdrew from San Francisco, he became a traitor.

The player has joined the anti-Qing camp and the player plays Kangxi and kills Wu Sangui. Please, half an hour ago the player was Wu Sangui. What will the players think?"

Zhang Guoqiang was speechless for a moment. This is indeed a problem. The protagonist changes too quickly.

Yang Yun waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "This is a question of freedom. The game can have the system's default official history process, or it can have the players' own preferred process. We allow players to choose the various forces and make the game

A high degree of freedom is enough!”

Everyone was stunned, and Ma Liang didn't even want to understand. He stammered and asked: "How can there be unlimited design freedom? What if the player kills Wu Sangui, how will the Qing Dynasty enter the border? What if the player controls the Ming army to go out and fight?

, it has been delayed for hundreds of years without being destroyed, and it is already 1995 and the Ming Dynasty has not yet been destroyed. Isn’t it completely impossible to continue the main line? "

Yang Yun chuckled and said: "Why are you so stubborn? In this major historical event of Wu Sangui introducing Qing troops into the Pass, it doesn't matter which force the protagonist belongs to. After completing the task, the protagonist will return to modern times. Let's replace it with Wu Sigui's introduction of Qing troops."

Isn't it over when the soldiers enter the level? None of this is important. What is important is that the game has a main historical line, but players can freely play with various outcomes.

The results of the game will not affect the main line of history, but are just for the players' own entertainment. When you withdraw from San Francisco, you can continue to play Wu Sangui. It doesn't matter if you kill Kangxi and overthrow the Qing Dynasty. Just like you play Three Kingdoms, use Liu Bei to unify the Three Kingdoms. Is it possible?

Do you really think Cao Cao was killed by Liu Bei?"

Zhao Yongping rarely spoke about game production creativity and said: "Ma Liang, if you can't figure it out, just look through the table of contents of any book. There are parts one, two and three. Each part has ten chapters. Each part has ten chapters.

There are several sections in a chapter. The section is the dynasty, the chapter is an emperor, and the sections are various game copies. Is that so, Mr. Yang?"

Yang Yun applauded: "Ma Liang, look, you are still a game planner!"

Everyone burst into laughter, making Ma blush. He just didn't turn around for a moment. Using the table of contents of a book as an analogy, how could he not figure it out?

The official history is the skeleton of the game, but the content of the dungeon can be ever-changing. Lazy people follow the official history and follow the mainstream. Fanatic players are more interested in exploring the entire game to find the greatest degree of freedom for pleasure.

After Yang Yun set the general tone, the designers began to think about the details.

Zhang Guoqiang said: "Mr. Yang, judging from the two major features of time travel and high degree of freedom, I think the workload of this game is probably not something that can be completed in one or two years. The history of more than three thousand years can be written

There is so much stuff that the number of subsections in the book catalog is almost endless!”

Everyone has this kind of doubt. In any Qing Dynasty, hundreds of major events are probably going to happen, and there are many types of games, which are trivial and complicated.

Yang Yun nodded, stood up and said solemnly: "Then, let me tell you what is a game platform and what is a sandbox game!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
