Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall?

Whole point that can lose money!

Shen Miaomiao shouted in her heart.

You always take pity on me!

Yes, the me in the past was always looking forward to being a demon, thinking about losing a huge fortune.

Isn't that because our company was weak, small in size, low in investment, and insufficient in the number of players?

For example, in our first game "Cat Leo", the total investment was only 10,000 yuan, and the loss of ten times was only 100,000 yuan.

Only if one copy is not sold, can I get a full rebate and earn more or less.

But now!

Things have changed for the better!

The company has been promoted to a medium-sized company, with more players and higher investment.

With an investment of hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars at every turn, I don't need to lose money at all, and I don't need to make the game lose money, and I can still get a huge amount of rebate funds!

Like Garden Warfare.

Sales of 718,900 sets in a single week, just a little less than the expected 731,000 sets, have already given me a rebate of nearly 10 million!

Although everyone said that you have fallen from the altar and that your past glory is no longer there, everyone knows that it is just a joke from the players.

After all, you can see whose games usually pay back their money in half a fucking month, or even in a week!

In terms of sales volume and capital return speed, we are already the only echelon in the world!

This is not my Shen Miaomiao talking nonsense, you can go and find out, since the concept of 'game company', who can soar from 500,000 starting capital to 1 billion in just three years? control net worth.

This means that we don't go public, otherwise the market value will have to be among the billions or even tens of billions.

And this time!

I hold a thousand-fold rebate card in my hand, and I see that the plan of wealth and freedom is in front of me.

After a little calculation, even if we only produce a game with an investment of 100 million yuan, I will lose one-tenth of it within the specified time.

Ten million, multiplied by a thousand times.

That's ten billion!

Ten billion!

Spend three or four billion to buy a private luxury yacht, and the rest of the money is enough for the two of us to eat and build a few lifetimes!

not to mention!

It also won't do much to your old supernova reputation, and your company's reputation for quality!

Even after getting the money, I can tell you directly that I don’t want this system anymore, and I can produce whatever works you want in the future!

Let's engage in publicity and marketing, with great fanfare and drums!

Isn't it fragrant? !

Isn't this a win-win? !

Take a loss! Take a loss! Let you be cute and kind-hearted, but I just hope that you will lose some money as the boss of a beautiful salted fish!

Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao took a deep breath, praying that Lao Gu could give her a satisfactory answer.

And her so-called "satisfactory answer" is nothing more than picking out a development derivative sequel among the five games that have lost money.

Among these five games, there is only one that she likes the most.

That is--

"I'm going to make a first-person shooter game based on Garden Warfare."

Gu Sheng said.

good!

Gu Sheng has long been prepared for the game to be developed next.

Even "Garden Wars" was made as its pre-experimental version!

In Garden Warfare, Gu Sheng specially arranged two innovative FPS competition modes: "Push Cart" and "Occupy Point".

In order to pave the way for the next game.

It is worth mentioning that during Garden Warfare, Gu Sheng also experimented with an alternative second-generation FPS design——

Also cancel the virtual front sight, and then shoot with an interesting mechanical-like aiming.

For example, the pea shooter's bean sprout anvil hole, and the corn captain's corn leaf-style optical sight.

but.

Facts have proved that this kind of game is not suitable for using mechanical aim design after all.

After all, everyone has a wide variety of firearms, such as rifle-like firearms, which can be used for machine sighting, but firearms like grenade guns, launchers, etc., are not very good for machine sighting.

It will affect the overall fluency of the game and the immersion of the fun experience.

And if you want players to better experience the feeling of combining skills and shooting, it is definitely not enough to blindly embrace the "second-generation FPS" setting that you have pioneered in this world.

Although the shooting games of Golden Wind have never adopted the setting of "virtual front sight".

Even from the outside world's point of view, the "virtual front sight" to Golden Wind is a remnant of the old era, and it is not worthy of landing on the big ship of the somatosensory cabin game in the new era.

But this time!

Gu Sheng groaned, and said:

"And this time, in order to balance the gameplay and player experience, I also plan to cancel the second-generation FPS machine sight setting that we have always used well, and enable the virtual crosshair design to make the game rhythm smoother."

Shen Miaomiao was going crazy.

This means that Gu Sheng is far away from Nihong, not by her side!

Otherwise, she would definitely have to "fly on the horse" on the spot!

Good luck!

If you have a good heart, don't you come here!

good!

Shen Miaomiao's favorite loss-making sequel is also "Garden Wars"!

After all, this is the project with the most losses in her history.

The net loss was 617,200 within the specified time in a single week.

Moreover, as far as rebates are concerned, it is also the project with the second most rebates on losses since she obtained the system!

Although in comparison, whether it is the amount of final rebates or the basic multiplier of the documents, "Left 4 Dead" is more. ("Left 4 Dead" rebates a loss of 10 million, and the multiplier is 100 times).

But the problem is, judging from the current status and reputation of Left 4 Dead in the game circle.

If Lao Gu really wants to release "Left 4 Dead 2", then the sales of the game may not be able to stop at all!

Look back at Garden Warfare.

You know, this is a work that made Lao Gu ridiculed as "falling from the altar".

It is also the only game of Golden Wind that is not [Rave Reviews]!

The key is!

This time, Lao Gu actually wants to give up the second-generation FPS setting that he has always been best at, and it is also their best at Golden Wind!

What is it called? friends?

Shen Miaomiao almost laughed out loud!

Self-defeating martial arts!

The shooting game of Golden Wind does not use the second-generation FPS setting, which is equivalent to Xiao Li Tanhua losing his knife, his one-armed one-armed one-armed bird, Guo Jing forgetting the dragon palm, and Qiao's gang leader forgetting to bring a big stereo!

Re-enable virtual crosshairs?

It's also a shame that they are not a listed company.

Otherwise, the company's stock price would have plummeted just by releasing this news!

After all, since their Golden Wind launched the second-generation FPS and became popular, until now!

In the past three years, there have been fewer and fewer virtual sight games on the market. The first generation of FPS has basically been eliminated by the market, except for games like "Wire of Fire" which are still persisting.

But Lao Gu is fine!

It is obviously his own innovative model, but now, he has to abandon his own strengths and make use of his own weaknesses!

God help me too, I don’t lose anyone!

"good good good good!"

Shen Miaomiao was overjoyed, Shen Miaomiao was elated, Shen Miaomiao repeatedly raised her thumb and praised again and again:

"That's a good idea! Get up wherever you fall!"

"And this decision to re-enable the virtual front sight also fully reflects that our Golden Wind does not stick to the rules and has the courage to break the inherent prejudices of the market. Let the game circle see that whether the game is fun or not is not determined by the game mode, but by the game. It depends on creativity and playability!"

Tut tut tut!

Hearing this, Gu Sheng was speechless again and again!

Take a look, take a look at our lotus root!

This consciousness, this consciousness, this idea and open attitude!

In the past three years, little Nezha has seen the improvement in game awareness.

From being ignorant at the beginning, to being well-informed now.

Now, Shen Miaomiao was able to say that 'whether a game is fun or not depends on the creativity and playability', which really made Gu Sheng gratified.

Our boss lotus has grown up. Although he is not shrewd and capable, he has at least made great progress in his understanding of the game market and the origin of games.

"Boss Shen is righteous!"

Gu Sheng clasped his hands together:

"Then this project is decided like this?"

That's natural!

Shen Miaomiao nodded again and again, for fear that Gu Sheng would regret it: "It's decided! It's decided! When you come back, we'll set up the project right away!"

I can't wait for a minute!

deficit! This time I'm going to lose a lot!

"Please be good to you!"

Gu Sheng nodded solemnly!

After finishing speaking, the two hung up the phone, Gu Sheng was very excited!

Although Caldick's Blizzard is no less than Konami and Vivendi, it is one of the best top-level births in the world!

But there is no doubt that the past Blizzard games, looking at the world, are absolutely handy!

Especially in today's world, the somatosensory cabin game market is booming.

With the support of the full sensory assistance and the upgraded version of the motion assistance, Gu Sheng is really excited when he thinks of being able to touch his own butt in the game... No, being able to move around in the game and fight fiercely!

"call--"

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng couldn't help but took a deep breath, and said:

"System, unlock it for me - Overwatch"

[Didi, the emotional value is insufficient, there is still 168992 emotional points short]

Gu Sheng: ...

Come on, it's not that bad.

It is estimated that it will be enough for the players to fight the red ghost...

...

The popularity of the "Golden Wind" booth hit a new high! "

"Gagaga! The number of somatosensory cabins at the Golden Wind booth is still in short supply after three rounds of replenishment! "

"'Wolf game' has become the hottest game word of the week"

"A number of well-known game evaluation media have given "Sekiro" a score close to full marks! "

"Torii" is hard to keep safe, "Sekiro" breaks out! "

"..."

Two days passed by in a flash.

As said before.

Since the turmoil on the second day of the exhibition, no one at the Golden Wind booth dared to provoke troubles.

Even the queuing of the players present has become conscious.

As the various data continued to rise, the terrifying "peak heat index: 277%" at the end of the game undoubtedly made Golden Wind the most dazzling new star at this Dongjin Video Game Festival.

The voice of "falling to the altar" is getting louder and louder.

The media named this wolf as "the most anticipated game of the year comparable to or even surpassing "Escape from Heaven".

The evaluation media are busy experiencing how amazing, how perfect, and how fascinating the action system touting this work is.

Players, on the other hand, chanted "MAGA (Make ARPG Great Again)" and regarded it as another comprehensive innovation of the somatosensory cabin game mode after "Left 4 Dead".

[Wolf] The voice of the game is overwhelming.

It seems to be just like what pew tweeted on the first day of development.

What "Sekiro" created is by no means an ActionRolePlayingGame game that can run smoothly in the somatosensory cabin and make more actions.

Its levels, its narrative, its combat logic and game presentation form are all unprecedented in this era or even from ancient times to the present.

It is the future of somatosensory pod action games.

And now, the future is here.

"'Wolf' games will definitely become a major development branch of action games in the somatosensory cabin."

At the Teriyaki Eel Rice Restaurant not far from the Komera headquarters, Moriya Toru also took a sip of oolong tea and said:

"I wish "Sekiro" a big hit, and Gu Sang and Golden Wind will make further progress."

"Thank you Moriya-san,"

Gu Sheng smiled and nodded:

"But speaking of it, Mori-san is really troublesome this time. Not only did he help us contact the motion capture team, but someone made trouble at the exhibition and..."

"Hey—don't talk about that, don't talk about that,"

Moritani waved his hand to indicate that you are welcome:

"Gu Sang believes in me and is willing to tell me such an important plan, so I will naturally go all out,"

"As for the exhibition..."

Speaking of which.

Moritani sighed, obviously still brooding, very helpless:

"That's what I'm supposed to do, and that's what I have to do,"

"Even to put it in a bad way, even out of consideration for Comera, I had to take action at the time to prevent this vicious incident from happening,"

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Gu Sang, the adults don't remember the mistakes of the villains, let us go."

"Haha," Gu Sheng waved his hand: "Other people can be said to be villains, but Mori Gu-san cannot be classified into this category."

With that said, the two of them had enough to eat and drink, stood up one after another, and then walked side by side outside the small restaurant.

Moriya proposed to send Gu Sheng back to the hotel, but Gu Sheng politely declined.

The place where he lives is not far from here, and he will be there just by taking a short walk.

So, the two shook hands and said goodbye.

"Take care, Gu Sang, you must call me when Neon comes again later."

Moriya shook Gu Sheng's hand.

Gu Sheng also laughed:

"For sure, come to China if you have time, and come to our Golden Wind to inspect."

"Okay," Moritani seemed very interested: "When this period of time passes, I will apply to the company and visit the company in the name of investigation, and also learn from your management experience and work model."

"Then I wait for the good news?"

"good!"

Say it.

The two waved goodbye.

Moriya started the car, while Gu Sheng strolled towards the hotel.

However.

What none of them knew was.

At the same time, in the coffee shop across the street, a man in a black windbreaker with an ordinary appearance silently put away his mobile phone.

And before the screen was locked, on the screen of the phone, there was a scene of Gu Sheng and Mori Gu standing on the side of the street shaking hands and saying goodbye, laughing harmoniously...
