Game Entertainment Empire

Listening to Xu Yu's words in the office, Yang Chen stared at him.

When I first recruited Xu Yu, why didn't I find that the other party had this talent?

"How did you convince Lin Jiayi? When I was developing "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", I also offered an olive branch." Yang Chen looked at Xu Yu curiously.

Just now Xu Yu said that he had contacted Lin Jiayi in private, and that the other party intended to leave NetDragon and Chang'an studios and join their Xingyun game camp.

This surprised Yang Chen. Before that, when they jointly developed "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", Yang Chen had already discussed this matter with Lin Jiayi, but Lin Jiayi clearly refused at that time.

And now how Xu Yu lulled the other party over, Yang Chen was very surprised.

"The main reason for moving with emotion and understanding is because the other party has ambitions, and he also has conditions." Xu Yu smiled and continued talking to Yang Chen.

For Lin Jiayi to join Nebula Games, it is not just a simple request to join Nebula Games, but to develop the game as a separate studio and have the right to operate independently.

"Of course, there is no problem, but we need to be able to control it." Yang Chen nodded without much disgust.

This condition is not beyond his expectations. His only requirement is that even if it is an independent and independent studio, Nebula Games must have ownership and decision-making power.

At the same time, in terms of investment ratio, they have to occupy the majority.

"I will discuss the details with them in detail, and I will tell you the relevant news when the time comes." Xu Yu nodded and said to Yang Chen.

"In addition, the comic company has basically completed the first draft, so you can choose it." Xu Yu said to Yang Chen.

After acquiring the comic company and changing its name to Nebula Comic Media, its operation method will basically change.

Because its comic works are not only aimed at ordinary comic readers, but also need to consider the audience of game players.

"Forget it, I can't see what's good and what's bad. I'd better let the dedicated editorial team know about it. As long as there's no content that makes the characters and plot collapse in the game, it's fine." Yang Chen shook his head and said to Xu Yu. : "In addition, for comics, the audience should not be so wide. If you really want to stir up IP, you still need animation."

Yang Chen didn't know anything about these things,

At least he understands that in terms of popularity, manga works are definitely not as well-known as animation works.

Some well-known comic IPs are only known to more people after they are animated.

"Of course, but we have to wait for the follow-up "Resident Evil" plot to show more content. Only the current plot of the game "Resident Evil" lacks some animation content." Xu Yu explained.

Of course, he also understood this aspect.

Next, Yang Chen continued to talk to Xu Yu about his thoughts on the IP strategy. After Xu Yu left, Yang Chen focused on his work.

Regardless of whether it is IP or what, the most important thing is the game itself.

With the successive recruitment of newcomers, Yang Chen is also starting to set up a new internal studio to develop the two games "Red Alert" and "Auto Chess".

And online players have already discovered the hidden update content of Xingyun game

…………

At the beginning, "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" ushered in a big update, but after looking at the update content log and the official website of Nebula Games, I didn't find anything special.

But after entering the game, the players soon found something different. After pressing ESC, the players found that there was an online game label in the system options bar.

Players can enter the online mode by registering or binding the Nebulas official account.

And in the online mode, there are some special gameplays, such as some extra plots.

Players can form their own teams, and then hunt vampires in the Dawnguard DLC content.

You can also hunt dragons in the wild together.

In addition, there are a series of gameplays of the Comrades in Arms, the Thieves' Guild, the Dark Brotherhood, the Imperial Army, and the Stormcloak Army.

You can even buy real estate in the game and choose to hire bodyguards to run rampant in the sky.

If the version of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" is very free, and after adding elements of social attributes in the multiplayer mode, it becomes more interesting for players.

Players who like to fight monsters can form a team together and learn from the taverns and bards in the main cities that there are giant dragons, vampires, and demons in some places, so they can form a team to fight.

Players who like to be assassins can accept assassination tasks from the Dark Brotherhood to assassinate an important NPC; players in the comrades group can also accept the task of protecting NPCs.

The player base of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" is placed here. When Yang Chen and the others set up this function, they made a very bold decision, that is, global common matching.

Some players choose to assassinate the NPC, and some players choose to protect the NPC. During this period, the players whose match is delayed for 1 minute will enter the same mirror image battle, which is equivalent to an alternative PVP competition mode.

Players who assassinate NPCs need to be careful not to reveal their identities, and then approach the NPCs to kill them, fleeing thousands of miles away.

The players who protect the NPC are to find the assassin, or guard the NPC so that it will not be killed.

In addition, many small games have been added to the game. For example, players can buy things like reins in the store, and tame horses in the wild to participate in horse racing.

At the same time, in the game, Yang Chen also referred to a big-name mini-game from a 3A masterpiece in Dream Memory, allowing players to compete in card skills in places like taverns.

Character cards of different races, field cards with different effects, and magic cards, as well as the standard number of rounds, a very simple and interesting board game mode.

Of course, if you have to say that players have some criticisms, it is that there is an in-app purchase system in the game, and the recharge of in-app purchases is the gold coins in the game.

Gold coins are very important in the multiplayer mode. Buying real estate, even buying ready-made horses directly in the main city, and finding traces of some monsters from taverns and bard populations all require gold coins.

As for how to get gold coins without recharging, you can either get gold coins by completing tasks such as comrades-in-arms and the Dark Brotherhood, or accept monster hunting bounty tasks in the main city, and then go to the wild to hunt monsters in exchange for gold coins. You can choose to run errands in the main city and do some trivial things to get paid.

To put it simply, the multiplayer mode, all kinds of extra content, and even the plot are a bit like DLC.

And players want to play these, either choose liver gold coins to buy, or directly become a krypton gold warrior.

Compared with other game companies, this approach is actually very conscientious. If you don’t want to eat it, you can buy it directly, and you can buy it if you don’t want to.

At the same time, there may be many ways to obtain gold coins in the game, and Yang Chen and the others did not deliberately lower the number of gold coins obtained.

Completely experience all the content of the multiplayer mode. According to the results of internal testing, players only need about 50-100 hours to fully unlock it.

Looking at the online players' admiration and complaints about the multiplayer mode, in the Xingyun Games office, Yang Chen's focus is not on this at all.

Even he was a little anxious.

It shouldn't be!
