Game designer: I am making games, not charity

Mr. Ma finally understood what Li Chen meant, but this time he fell silent.

Now the entire game industry in Great Xia Kingdom has been completely controlled by Platinum Corporation, and the Goose Factory has become a thing of the past. If you want to turn around, you must rely on this virtual reality technology.

As for the so-called national righteousness, Mr. Ma is naturally clear about those things, but if he really has to make a choice, he doesn't know how to choose.

Mr. Ma hesitated for a while, but finally just shook his head and remained silent.

Li Chen frowned, and then said: "Okay, Mr. Ma, I'm just talking casually. I'm a little too tired from work recently. I want to ask for a vacation and go back to rest for two days. Do you think it's okay?"

Mr. Ma didn't think much about it, and nodded in agreement.

Li Chen took off his white coat and walked out of the laboratory. The moment he walked out of the laboratory, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

……

One day later, "World of Warcraft" was launched globally simultaneously!
Except for the beautiful country and other western countries, the game launch time of other countries is basically the same as that of the Great Xia country.

Of course, players from western countries who have purchased Platinum's swich 1 machine before can also play "World of Warcraft" at the same time. After all, this game was originally released on the swich 1 machine.

The payment mode of the game is the point card billing system adopted.

Within an hour of the game's launch, almost all servers were full and queues were required.

In order to solve this problem, Luo Zhonghao led everyone in the company to work overtime, and finally opened up more than 100 servers an hour later to divert traffic.

But even so, most of the servers are still full.

This is also impossible, because there are too many players.

Fortunately, Luo Zhonghao has been building new servers to increase the capacity of the original server, so the problem of player diversion has been solved very well.

Most players can enter the game normally after queuing for half an hour.

Chen Feng also looked at the background data the whole time, and he could clearly see that the number of real-time online users of "World of Warcraft" has remained at around 15 billion. This data is extremely terrifying, even when "League of Legends" was the most popular and at its peak , and not so many people have been online at the same time.

Of course, these two games are not in the same category, and there is not much comparison between them.

For players, a game like "World of Warcraft" feels fresh and interesting to play. After playing, after playing all the equipment for the game, it will enter a period of weakness.

As for a game like "League of Legends", it has a very long lifespan, and its focus is on competition, so there is no need to compare the two.

Judging from the current data, Chen Feng is already very satisfied. As for Luo Zhonghao and others, they are naturally extremely excited. They have already finished all their work, but a group of people still refuse to go home, and instead stay in front of the computer. I have been staring at the data in the background of the game.

For them, once again producing a game that makes players all over the world go crazy, they are full of a sense of accomplishment, so they want to stay together to witness history.

……

In a small house on the outskirts of the beautiful country, Li Chen holds a swich1 generation machine in his hand, looking at the "World of Warcraft" that has been downloaded, with complicated eyes.

In fact, he bought the swich1 generation machine a long time ago, but because of the sudden busy work during this period, he has no time to play.

Things at work made him a little upset.

At this time, the interface of the swich1 generation machine shows that the "World of Warcraft" server queue has been completed, and the game can already be entered.

Li Chen immediately shook his head, put those troubles out of his mind, put on all the equipment, chose to enter the game, and officially experienced this phenomenal vr online game.

After entering the game, it was the selection process. Li Chen chose an undead very perfunctorily, and chose a string of numbers for the name. As for the profession, he chose a priest who was close to his job. The whole process did not take more than 20 seconds. Li Chen officially started the game.

Opening his eyes, Li Chen found himself in an underground tomb. He lowered his head and found that his body was a skeleton, and the clothes he was wearing were all tattered.

There is a string of slightly weird and gloomy music in the ears, and the atmosphere is full.

The novice guidance interface, after guiding Li Chen to move up, down, left, and right, and jumping, the guidance interface disappeared.

Li Chen felt a little strange. Other games he played in the past should have pointed out what he should do next, but this "World of Warcraft" novice guide only taught him some basic content, and didn't talk about anything else. .

Do you want to explore by yourself?

Turning his head, he looked at the other skeletons around him who had just been reborn in the cemetery. After moving and jumping for a while, they froze in place, and then began to walk towards the cemetery.

And there are quite a few people typing directly, sending messages: "Fuck, doesn't this game have any quest guides?"

"The games made by Platinum Corporation are amazing, the atmosphere is so comfortable,"

"At first glance, you are all newbies. Didn't you take extra lessons before playing? This game is just normal fighting monsters and upgrading, exploding equipment, it's very simple."

"Sand Sculpture, this game has a high degree of freedom. You don't need to do tasks. You can level up as long as you fight monsters. After leveling up, just go to a professional tutor to learn skills."

Seeing what they said, Li Chen also controlled his character and walked towards the outside of the tomb. He saw a skeleton npc standing at the entrance of the tomb. This npc had an exclamation mark on its head. It was obviously the NPC who issued the mission. ,

But Li Chen was too lazy to accept the task, and simply controlled the character to move forward.

In this world of the undead, the sky is always dark, and the atmosphere of the whole world is full.

Li Chen controlled the character and walked straight along the main road. When he saw a few level 1 mobs on the side of the road, he dealt with them one by one.

Along the way, Li Chen saw the huge main city of the undead clan, Undercity, and along the way, he saw some small towns and camps of the tribes, and of course he also saw some soldiers of the alliance.

Li Chen was fighting monsters, leveling up, and exploring the entire game world. He gradually felt that this continent of Azeroth was like a real world, and almost all the gameplay had to be done by himself. explore.

Such a sense of reality can't help but give Li Chen an idea. If the virtual reality technology he has researched is given to Platinum Corporation and used in this game, then this game may really become the first game for many people. Two worlds.

Moreover, Platinum Corporation is a game company that truly belongs to the Great Xia Kingdom. With virtual reality technology given to them, the future of the Great Xia Kingdom will also become better.

……

Ten days later, Li Chen informed Mr. Ma and others that there was a problem with the virtual reality chip technology, and the chip could not be developed for the time being.

Then, he returned to the Great Xia Kingdom and handed over this technology to the Great Xia Kingdom Game Management Bureau.

Soon, the Great Xia Kingdom Game Management Bureau and Platinum Corporation shared this technology, and planned to apply it to Platinum Corporation's future games.

When this technology matures, the entire game industry and even the entire world will undergo earth-shaking changes.

With this virtual reality technology in hand, Chen Feng was sitting in his office, looking at various games in the system space, helpless.

"The Legend of Zelda, God of War, Sekiro, Dark Souls, The Witcher, Elden's Circle... Which game did I convert to VR first? Hey, it’s really hard to choose, otherwise, just change them all.”
