Chapter 396: IP masterpiece versus cube man! The advantage is mine!
A sentence "We will never compromise in the face of hegemonism"!
Where is the tweet announcing the start of development of the Golden Wind engine!
This is simply a proclamation and a declaration of war!
Thinking back on the past, Golden Wind and Comella had an unpleasant quarrel over the "Silent Hill" project, and it could even be said that the talks collapsed!
Whether it's Golden Wind or Gu Sheng, the tweets they send are very restrained, such as "Mountains can't change, rivers can't change", "Looking forward to the next collaboration", etc.
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that cooperation is impossible, at that time Golden Wind and Comella were eager to kill each other quickly.
but!
The overall expressions of both parties were very cautious and did not put the contradiction on the table.
But this time it’s different!
Due to Vivendi's one-handed operation, Huanmeng brazenly played the trump card of the policy of containing China.
ˆ˜The control and differential treatment of China are already in the face!
Naturally, there is no need to hide the golden wind anymore!
There is nothing to say.
Anyway, everyone has stopped dealing with it long ago.
The shot fired in Sarajevo in 1914 was just a trigger. It was only a matter of time before war started.
As soon as this news came out, it undoubtedly set off an unprecedented wave of discussion in the gaming circle at the end of this year!
In just half an hour, the number of comments on Golden Wind’s tweet has exceeded 20,000!
In addition to the 17 brother companies that came to the scene to support and express their support, more importantly, there were the voices of tens of thousands of players!
‘When friends come, there’s good wine; when there’s wolves, there’s shotguns’
‘Lao Gutou is awesome! Mr. Ou is awesome! Dry! ’
‘The supernova back then has now developed enough to go to war with the great powers, and suddenly I got a little excited and even wanted to drop the little pearl’
‘Too fierce, Xiao Huang! This is simply World War I in the gaming industry! ’
‘It’s bad, I have become an Allied Power (dog head)’
‘China is a nation that values peace (pulls out a gun)’
‘Support Xiao Huang to launch strategic boy again in Neon’s homeland (Lotus Root Funny)’
‘It’s like the eighteen princes are fighting against Dong, awesome’
‘Join seventeen groups to develop engines, my dear, I don’t believe it if there is no official permission from the top’
‘Indeed, this coalition army is too powerful...’
‘I guess the first conflict will be in Cologne’
Germany: Why do I have to worry about the world war? ’
‘Hahahahahahahaha…’
Officially declare war!
As the two sides bring conflicts and disputes to the table, the global gaming landscape will also usher in unprecedented changes in two decades.
In fact.
This is not a bad thing for Gu Sheng and Huang Jinzhifeng.
Although saying this seems a bit hawkish, there is no doubt that the most effective way is to quickly rewrite the world's industrial structure and organize the triggering of a world war.
Although this protracted war may last three to four years, or even longer.
But for the long decades of game development, the rapid rise brought about by world wars is already the shortest way to spend time.
With the official showdown between the two sides, the global game industry, and even the high-tech industry, have focused their attention on this undercurrent, and a battlefield that will soon erupt into a head-on conflict.
It is exactly what that comment said after all.
Just two months later in Cologne.
At the Cologne Games Show, the first confrontation between the two sides will be held as scheduled.
…
…And in this confrontation, we can only win, not lose!”
at the same time!
The United States is so powerful!
As we all know, generally speaking, as the CEO of Yunwei, Kaunik will basically not participate in the development node meeting of a certain game.
After all, Yunwei has so many game studios. If he had attended every game development meeting, he would have been exhausted long ago.
But this time!
This game was developed by "Snow Leopard Studio", one of the top three studios among Yunwei's studios, which is second only to Firebird Studio and is known as the "top three studios" by the outside world. However, this game made Cornick particularly special. Attention!
Not only did he personally participate in the project development meeting as early as a month ago when the project was approved.
Now, the project development has made some progress, and I once again attended the meeting in person to understand the development progress and guide the development work!
Just because of this project!
This is their main exhibition project that they will put at Gamescom and bury the golden wind with their own hands!
At this moment, Kaunik, who was sitting at the head of the conference room, couldn’t help but feel a lot when he thought about what happened at the original project establishment meeting.
That’s right.
The current situation was not formed in a day.
Yunwei had started preparing for this confrontation at Gamescom long before Kaunik contacted Huanmeng.
This game is now developed by Snow Leopard Studio. In terms of form, Cornick drew inspiration from the success of "Night Owl" and proposed that although we regard the Golden Wind as an eyesore, in terms of game design, we can refer to the Golden Wind. Based on the previous game core, we design the game.
At the time when "Call of Duty" had not yet become a big hit, looking at the previous games of Golden Wind, who is the game that has achieved double success in terms of word-of-mouth and sales?
《Two people travel together》
10 points across all platforms! 5 million units sold in a single week! rave reviews as high as 99%!
This thing is here, if you don’t refer to it, where can I refer to it?
even!
In order to make this game a success, Cornick also made a contribution to Golden Wind, buying a game and playing it himself!
And after some fun!
“This is a game that focuses on jumping,”
“Players solve puzzles by constantly jumping and triggering mechanisms, which brings a sense of achievement and satisfaction.” “Although this two-player cooperation part is also very successful, I do not recommend that we completely imitate it,”
“After all, if we even borrow the cooperation part, it will definitely have a negative impact on the reputation of our game...”
A calm analysis!
It’s hard to say that Kaulnick’s analysis is completely wrong.
After all, what people say makes sense. In the game Two Players, indeed, in most of the game time, two cooperating players advance the game plot by jumping and passing game obstacles.
To a certain extent, this is indeed a platform jumping puzzle game!
Starting from the small tool room, Cody and Xiaomei jumped and finally jumped out of the tool room.
At the later castle dollhouse level, Cody and Xiaomei also jumped and jumped, and finally jumped into the castle of Little Cutie III.
Even at the end of the game, the two of them were jumping on the disco light ball, and finally came up with a game finale with perfect scores on all platforms.
As Cornick sees it, jumping takes up most of the game from beginning to end.
but!
The reason why this game is fun and why it gets perfect score is because of the game setting of "jumping through obstacles"?
Apparently not.
And Cornick obviously doesn’t understand games.
As a businessman, he will not spend a lot of time studying the core and essence of the product.
After all, the most important thing when imitating a product is its appearance.
Cornick only needs to focus on the “gameplay” shell.
As for the "two-player cooperation" gameplay other than jumping and jumping, as Kaunik said, it is not convenient for Yunwei to copy them completely.
so!
In order to make up for the lack of this selling point, Cornick also announced another explosive stunt on the spot—
【We have reached a cooperation intention with New Line Cinema, a subsidiary of Warner Bros., and will purchase the IP license for the film version of "The Lord of the Rings" from New Line Cinema! 】
The Lord of the Rings!
Also known as "Lord of the Rings"!
As a magical masterpiece that has won 351 international awards, 284 nominations, and 17 Academy Awards, the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy can be said to be the ceiling of global fantasy movies.
Not only is the quality of the film exploding at the production level, but its reputation and reputation are also world-renowned.
Use this thing as a gimmick!
It’s hard to imagine what kind of sensation it will cause in the gaming circle after the news is announced!
Ever since!
Such a platform jumping puzzle game licensed by The Lord of the Rings was born!
—
The Lord of the Rings: Gollum
That’s right!
In order to find a new approach, Cornick also boldly proposed changing the main perspective!
This time, we are neither the brave and capable dwarf warriors, nor the noble and elegant elves, nor the tenacious and unyielding humans!
Since it is a platform jumping puzzle game, it is perfect to focus on Gollum, the former holder of the Lord of the Rings!
Furthermore, with the help of Gollum’s agile mobility on all fours and the invisibility ability of the Lord of the Rings, they can also add elements of stealth assassination into the game to enrich the game’s playability!
A game with a super IP license that combines the most popular platform jumping gameplay and ingenious stealth assassination gameplay!
Cornick has a hard time imagining it not succeeding.
Especially after seeing the "Minecraft" concept poster that Golden Wind confirmed to be exhibited in Cologne this time!
This kind of confidence has reached its peak!
After all, the work developed by Golden Wind without the speed boost of the engine is too bad!
The picture is full of pixels, as well as the square and rough block-headed characters!
Say something unpleasant.
Cornick even feels that if he learns programming for two days, the game he makes may be comparable to "Minecraft" like Golden Wind.
but!
“…we still can’t take it too lightly,”
Cornick said:
“After all, there are many die-hard players of Golden Wind,”
“In addition, this time they showed a rare toughness and dared to declare war on us directly on social platforms,”
“This kind of public relations method is bound to increase their marketing enthusiasm,”
“So this time, even though their work looks like a complete shoddy piece of crap,”
“But their momentum cannot be underestimated,”
“Especially at the beginning of the game exhibition, we must be more careful and strive to suppress the golden wind from the very beginning without giving them any chance to breathe!”
Speaking!
Cornick looked around at the serious-looking members of the Snow Leopard Studio, nodded, and continued seriously:
“This time, we have the support of a world-renowned super IP and sufficient development funds of up to 328 million yuan!”
“3S-level IP masterpiece versus rough block people!”
“The advantage is mine!”
“This time, we will avenge our shame and turn Gamescom into the burial ground of the Golden Wind!”
“What World War I, ha,”
“The First World War lasted four years,”
“But this time, at Gamescom, we will eradicate the roots and completely strangle the golden wind!”
The words have fallen!
I saw everyone in Snow Leopard Studio nodding solemnly and shouting in unison!
"clear-!"
