Chapter 202 What to Do
On the other end of the phone, Xu Xiaojun hung up a little helplessly.
In the conference room, Lin Zhaoxu asked, "He refused?"
Xu Xiaojun nodded: "Yes, and the attitude is relatively firm."
Lin Zhaoxu was not very surprised: "It is expected. An ambitious designer like him will definitely not hand over the game."
In the conference room, Lin Chaoxu, Xu Xiaojun and several designers of Dichao Entertainment were having a meeting, and Yan Zhenyuan was also there.
"I think Chen Mo should attach great importance to the world view of "Diablo", and he should consider making this world view a classic at the same level as "Warcraft"." Yan Zhenyuan said.
Lin Chaoxu leaned back on the chair: "In this case, the idea of cooperating with Chen Mo is invalid. Think about Plan B."
Yan Zhenyuan smiled: "There is no plan B, it can only be all original."
Lin Chaoxu looked at him: "Are you sure?"
Yan Zhenyuan thought for a while: "70%."
Lin Chaoxu nodded: "Yes, 70% is enough. Chen Mo is not yet able to make a game like Diablo into VR. Zen, even if they start at the same time as us, they will not have any advantage. "
Yan Zhenyuan said: "As long as Chen Mo doesn't do anything, everything is easy to say. Although he is only an A-level designer now, he is very evil, and he can always find all kinds of unimaginable angles to give some game genres that seem to be cool. Play with flowers."
Lin Zhaoxu smiled: "Old Yan, why are you afraid of him?"
Yan Zhenyuan shook his head: "It's not that I'm afraid. I'm not a fool like Qin Xiao. I still have to give some respect to such a talented designer."
"Especially designers who can create a certain genre often have their own understanding of this genre, and rashly copy it, it is easy to be slapped in the face."
Lin Chaoxu asked, "Then, do you know what to do with this game?"
Yan Zhenyuan thought for a moment: "Actually, the inspiration from "Diablo" is that the current domestic game is seriously insufficient, especially in the field of RPG, there are very few games like "Diablo" that can bring players the ultimate killing pleasure, It's a blank market."
"If we also want to develop similar games, there are actually only two ways."
"The first is to make the PC side, but limited by the form of expression, it can only be made into a third-person perspective, so no matter what we do, this game will become a 'copy' of "Diablo" game."
Lin Chaoxu nodded: "Indeed, this road will not work."
Yan Zhenyuan continued: "So our best choice is to do VR, and try to make such a refreshing game in VR games."
"It should be quite good to think about it. VR will not be limited by the problem of vision, and at the same time, it has a stronger ability to create a terrifying atmosphere. If it can really make the essence of "Darkness", it should be a big seller."
Lin Chaoxu nodded: "So, what do you think about the charging model? Is it a stand-alone buyout, or is it connected to the Internet?"
Yan Zhenyuan thought about it and said, "The risk of a single-player buyout is very high. Diablo has a unique set of values and equipment mechanisms. In fact, its later gameplay is only repeated monster spawning. Whether it can be successfully transplanted to VR is not a problem. Good to say."
"The online mode is relatively safe, but in a game where brushing is the main fun, the maximum number of players in the team cannot be higher than five people, otherwise it will become a group fight and the atmosphere will be destroyed."
"So what I'm thinking about is to continue the essence of "Diablo" and allow single-player mode or up to five-player team battles. In addition, players are allowed to socialize and trade freely in towns. Or use the equipment system as a Players' long-term pursuit."
Lin Zhaoxu nodded: "Well, I also think so. Well, in that case, this matter is left to you. The resources side will give priority to this project. You can do it freely, don't worry too much."
Yan Zhenyuan nodded: "Okay, I understand.
"
...
At present, Qiujiang is in charge of "The Mandate of the Moon God" and Qin Xiao is in charge of "Wolf Soul". These two games are the flagship products of Emperor Chaoyu Entertainment, and the two of them cannot spare time.
The VR games that Yan Zhenyuan had developed before had already begun to enter a stable period, and they were about to go downhill in the future, so Lin Chaoxu considered that he just took this opportunity to transfer Yan Zhenyuan to develop a new VR game project.
Well, "Diablo" gave them some inspiration.
Of course, changing the PC's third-person Diablo into a VR game is a very difficult task, almost like redoing a new game.
Therefore, Lin Chaoxu first considered whether Chen Mo and Yan Zhenyuan could cooperate. This would be equivalent to a strong alliance, and the risk would be minimized. Although the probability of Chen Mo agreeing is very small, it is worth asking.
As a result, Chen Mo unsurprisingly refused.
Therefore, Lin Chaoxu could only place this matter entirely on Yan Zhenyuan.
In fact, in terms of Yan Zhenyuan's ability, Lin Chaoxu was absolutely relieved.
Among Lin Chaoxu's most important S-level designers, Qin Xiao is somewhat arbitrary, but has a strong execution force; Qiu Jiang has the most active ideas and many good ideas; and Yan Zhenyuan has a very balanced ability in all aspects, and the game he made is the worst. The situation can also make a small profit, and never suffer a major failure.
Therefore, for this project, Lin Chaoxu still felt that it was the most appropriate to hand it over to Yan Zhenyuan. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

experience in the store.
Chen Mo was thinking about something when he received a message.
Qiujiang: "Lao Yan seems to be planning a VR-like "Darkness" game recently, so be careful."
Chen Mo was a little confused, he read the information twice, yes, it was sent by Qiujiang.
What do you mean, leak?
Chen Mo replied, "Where are you from?"
Qiujiang: "None of them. Actually, I'm reminding you mainly to make you prepare a little bit. Don't let Lao Yan beat his teeth all over the place without knowing it. It's boring."
Chen Mo: "Co-authoring, you just want to see us pinch each other? What's wrong?"
Qiujiang: "It's the nature of the melon-eating masses, isn't it?"
The corners of Chen Mo's mouth twitched slightly: "Actually, I knew when Xu Xiaojun called me before. Your emperor must think this game is good again, and you want to copy it. If you don't say it, I know it in my heart."
Qiujiang: "Okay, anyway, I reminded you, you can play how you like, don't let Lao Yan get down on it. He has to develop this game for a year, come on, I'm optimistic about you."
Chen Mo put away his phone, a little speechless, this Qiujiang can really make trouble!
However, Qiujiang's information is not completely useless. At least it revealed that Yan Zhenyuan will take at least one year to develop this VR game, which means that it will not be open for testing until August next year.
What can Chen Mo do?
Make a VR game in one year and launch it at the same time as Yan Zhenyuan's game?
It's a bit unrealistic, after all, this time is too short, and Chen Mo has no experience in the development of VR games at all.
Moreover, Chen Mo has already set a follow-up development plan, and it is not advisable to change it randomly.
"Think about it, what should I do?"
