Chapter 452 The derivative of wolf game! The Dilemma of the Golden Engine!
Candlestick, Codex.
The battle-scarred armor, the majestic church.
The magnificent dome of St. Peter's Basilica bears witness to the splendor of the Middle Ages.
The dilapidated and dilapidated Constantinople tells the story of the rise and fall of glory and disgrace in the Balkans.
The details in the photos are clear and the lines in the drawings are clear and elegant.
And now.
These photos and drawings were placed on the conference table of Golden Wind, in front of Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao.
“This is the most valuable information we have compiled during this period of time,”
Beside him, Sato, the director of Steel Chain Finger, reported to the "Two Saints of the Same Pilgrimage":
“Dr. Shen, boss, please take a look.”
That’s right.
During the development of "Battlefield", Gu Sheng didn't let Steel Fingers participate in the project. Instead, he asked them to go to Europe to collect data.
Now, the information before him and Xiao Nezha is the result of the Steel Chain Finger team.
only.
To this day, the members of Steel Chain Fingers still don’t know what the boss’s intention was when he asked them to go to Europe for inspection.
I only know that this is to accumulate materials for their new project.
As for what type of new project is it?
have no idea.
What subject matter?
have no idea.
What is the content?
Don’t even know.
They only know that the boss is going to give them a new project.
The other two eyes were darkened and they didn't know anything.
Shen Miaomiao was also very curious about this.
New project!
She just collected a small treasury worth 1.8 billion U.S. dollars!
Since there was no meeting with the government today, and Peng Xiaopang was watching over the United Company, she naturally had time to attend the project establishment meeting again.
What if there is still a chance?
As the saying goes, don’t take advantage of the bastard!
One in ten thousand, this project also has an opportunity to make a huge investment in an inexplicable place, and turn a project that should be profitable into a loss document through some additional investment?
Wouldn’t 1.8 billion dollars be the starting point for me to become rich and wealthy?
Think of this.
Shen Miaomiao looked at Lao Gu next to her—
“Okay, um, not bad…”
Seeing Gu Sheng finish reading the last few pieces of information, he nodded:
“Very good, very good.”
After speaking, Gu Sheng seemed to think of something and then fell into deep thought.
Steel chain fingers:…
Then what? Big brother? Gone?
The members of Steel Chain Fingers looked directly at Gu Sheng with question marks on their faces.
Let’s just take a photo?
What about the project? What about the project we agreed on before leaving for Europe?
Are you committed? Your stretcher...isn't...a project?
We didn’t really go on an annual vacation, did we? !
Do you know how greedy we are when we watch people from Golden Experience and Melancholic Blues showing off project progress and technological breakthroughs in WeChat Moments every day?
Find some work!
Otherwise, the salary offered to us by Mr. Ou is far beyond the industry average, and we would really feel uneasy about it!
Not to mention that I went to Europe for free for nearly a month, and my daily salary was still calculated!
Let's just say that it is indeed a good thing to get more salary, but this kind of treatment makes us a little bold!
Besides, it’s been half a year since the golden engine was developed and released, and we haven’t touched it yet!
This thing is like new equipment in the army. Do you know how itchy we feel if we don’t get it in our hands and play with it?
“That...Mr. Gu?”
Shen Miaomiao saw that the faces of Sato and the others were all turning red, fearing that they would suffer a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.
So he raised his hand and waved it in front of Gu Sheng, reminding him not to speak half-sentence, as he deserved a beating:
“So the project of this inspection is...?”
“Huh? Oh oh, oh!”
Only then did Gu Sheng come back to his senses and cleared his throat:
“New projects are certain, but I’m thinking that if we use the current golden engine to produce this work...it seems to be a bit lacking.”
Nowadays, Golden Engine, as their self-developed engine, can basically be said to be responsible for all future Golden Wind games.
but.
You must know that the golden engine has just started. Although it has excellent performance in Battlefield, its shortcomings still exist, which cannot be ignored.
Moreover, the success of Battlefield can only mean that the Golden Engine is capable of producing FPS games to a large extent.
How it performs in other types of works is not yet known.
Golden Wind is a game company that is involved in many types of games.
Just like this time—
“I asked you to go to Europe because I want to prepare a wolf ARPG game.”
——! !
As soon as this statement came out!
There was a sudden gasp of air in the conference room!
Wolves! ARPG!
The sequel to "Sekiro" is coming! !
oh-
Sato suddenly realized it!
No wonder the boss singled them out and sent them to Europe with pay to inspect them at such a critical stage of the development of Golden Engine and Battlefield!
It turns out that there is going to be a sequel to "Sekiro"!
A moment!
You need to know!
The original "Sekiro" can be said to have earned a lot of attention in the gaming circle! Golden Wind’s first 3S-level masterpiece, a pioneer of the game genre!
In the confrontation with Comella, he had an absolute advantage at the crushing level!
It is even said unceremoniously that the original "Sekiro" even now, looking at the global game circle, it is difficult to find an opponent, the gods will kill the gods and the Buddha will kill the Buddha!
This is the pride of Steel Chain Fingers, a miracle created by their own hands!
And now!
This IP has been discovered again after being dormant for such a long time!
As the "godfather of wolf games", the Steel Chain Finger team is naturally looking forward to it and full of confidence!
Everyone is looking forward to it.
So much so that he ignored the grinning Chairman Ms. Shen Miaomiao next to him.
Good news: She has derivative documents to create again
Bad news: The derivative work is Sekiro with an average score of 9.9
Where the **** is this going to happen?
Shen Miaomiao felt very sad.
She knows very well that for Golden Wind, this derivative work of "Sekiro" is likely to become their most horrifying game in terms of net profit in recent years.
Why?
First of all, the IP of Sekiro is so brutal. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you are a player of the individual sensory cabin, even if you do not have the game "Sekiro", you must have heard of its name.
Secondly, since the golden engine is officially on the right track, those who hold self-developed engines no longer need to pay the engine supplier, and the cost will be further reduced.
Finally, compared to works such as Two Players, Call of Duty, and Battlefield, due to the influence of their art styles, works such as Sekiro can’t add more than 200 million dollars no matter how much they increase the cost. Typical flowers Small money can do big things game type.
so!
well…
Shen Miaomiao sighed in her heart.
I estimate that the derivative documents this time will be in vain again.
There is no need to think about this list at all, you can't lose 12,000%.
No matter the quality is good or bad.
As long as Lao Gu comes out, the players will definitely buy it.
However!
At this moment!
Shen Miaomiao had even given up and was about to start thinking about what to eat for lunch!
Just then Gu Sheng smacked his lips:
“But now there is a problem...”
“It is difficult for our golden engine to achieve the effect I want in terms of the detailed performance quality of the game screen.”
Um?
Shen Miaomiao's thoughts that had drifted to fried chicken legs were brought back again.
Let me hear something?
Is there any turning point?
It is an indisputable fact that the golden engine’s picture details are insufficient.
After all, at the beginning of the development of this engine, Gu Sheng’s target was the Frost engine developed by the old DICE team in the previous life.
Whether it is Hanshuang in the previous life or the golden engine now developed under the leadership of Gu Sheng, in terms of screen expression, both are good at creating grand vistas and scenes, but lack the ability to express details.
It is good at distance but not at close distance, good at scenery but not at fine details.
This is where the graphics of the current golden engine fall short.
“…But the problem is, according to my current plan, this wolf derivative work will have to be at least two parts, or even become a trilogy like “Call of Duty”,”
Gu Sheng said:
“In this way, in terms of the performance quality of the first game, we must try our best to make it as perfect as possible and pave the way for subsequent works.”
“At least, it has to barely reach the quality of the Dream Engine.”
this…
Hear the words.
Everyone could not help but frown, with a look of embarrassment on their faces.
to be honest.
This requirement is a bit too demanding.
Perhaps one day, with their continuous polishing and upgrading, Golden Engine will one day surpass Fantasy in terms of quality.
But now.
impossible.
Though dreams block us and are our enemies.
But it is undeniable that other people’s technology can be said to be far superior to ours now.
In terms of the quality of picture details, if they want to be on par with Fantasy, they still need at least three to five years of accumulation and progress.
Golden Wind does have time.
But there is no time for the project.
Does it mean that this wolf spin-off will have to wait until three to five years before it is released?
impossible.
Project progress waits for no one.
“…But the problem is, it’s impossible for us to achieve a dramatic improvement in the quality of picture details in a short period of time?”
Yuki frowned slightly and said:
“Unless we change our approach, let’s put down our self-developed engine for the time being and choose Phoenix, which is better at picture quality.”
"no,"
Before Gu Sheng could speak, Okura, who was in charge of the overall process, shook his head:
“Now the golden engine is basically the default national engine in China. If we announce an engine change at this time, even if it is only temporary, the impact on us will be huge, and it will be very detrimental to future commercialization efforts.”
“What should we do then—”
Yuki shrugged upon hearing this, feeling a little discouraged:
“We can’t improve in a short time, and changing the engine will affect the overall situation,”
“It would be great if Phoenix could be integrated with our golden engine to achieve overtaking in corners perfectly…”
Said.
Yuki smiled bitterly.
I thought it would be great if there really were fusion magic cards like those in Yu-Gi-Oh!. With one fusion, the Golden Wind would evolve on the spot, and there would be no problem with the project.
It’s just that games are just games after all.
How could reality allow you to blend in so casually?
Thinking about it, Yuki held up his cheeks and thought of another way with a sad face.
She did not notice at all the flash of thoughtful light in the eyes of her best friend, classmate Shen Miaomiao, opposite her...
