Genius Game Planning

Chapter 283 Be Friends Not Rivals

Because of Guo Yu's [-]% confidence in this game and his love for it, the subsequent cooperation became extremely smooth.

Regarding naming things, Liu Neng said that it was optional. Anyway, he made a lot of money. With Guo Yu and the strong operation team behind him, it would definitely be smoother than going it alone.

Xie Chunjiao has limited energy alone, and there is no suitable person to help.In the past, she started her own company and was busy for a period of time and free for a period of time. She could control her own busyness. She felt that sometimes she was too busy, so she subconsciously took fewer orders and it was OK.

But I didn't expect it. After being acquired by Peacock Media, although there is no need to worry about orders, after all, the company needs to make too many market-oriented games.Not only those new games, but also some very old games, such as "Three Kingdoms" and the happy series of social page games, are still doing some linkage activities.

In addition, everyone is helping her, and just assigning tasks every day is already very busy.Want to bring out a good apprentice?Feel sorry!Do not have time.

Sometimes reality is so helpless.

"By the way, why did you ask me about the overseas test?" Guo Yu suddenly asked.

Liu Neng was stunned for a moment, "Why are you talking about this again? It's nothing, just ask casually."

"I always feel like you are hiding something from me." Guo Yu looked at him suspiciously, "For a moment, I felt that I had lost something."

Liu Neng sighed, "Forget it, it's nothing to tell you. Anyway, I will find a chance to talk about it later."

"Ok?"

"My name is MT ol. It's normal for foreigners not to like this style of game. The gameplay of this card game is also popular in China. Japan also plays cards, but their card games are not the same as our domestic ones. Card games are very different in essence. If you want to make a card game for overseas players, especially for European and American players, we have the opportunity to cooperate again.”

Guo Yu's eyes lit up immediately, "Damn it, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I originally planned to say this as a condition when you talked about cooperation after watching "Minecraft". I didn't expect you to be so excited and agreed directly, so I didn't have a chance to say it."

"Let's talk, what game? Is there already a design proposal?" His so-called design proposal is the kind of game design proposal that Liu Neng gave them before.Unlike other game productions, Liu Neng's design is so detailed that everything is in the details.In the past, when they set up a game project, they finalized the gameplay, selected the appropriate theme, and finalized the art style at the very beginning. At this time, it has been two to three months or even longer.

Then the project PPT is completed, and a road show is held within the company to see everyone's response.

It may take three to five months for a game to be officially approved from the project preparation stage, not to mention the constant negation of some previous settings during the production process, tearing down and redoing, and wasting even more time.

Liu Neng's game design projects are often thick and stacked, dozens of pages thick, in which there are game themes, game styles, and even some NPCs or scenes are drawn and some setting drafts are drawn.Then there is the gameplay, the setting has been refined to the extent that it can be directly used as a plan.

And during the game production, there is no problem of tearing down and redoing.It seems that during the production process of "My name is MTol", Guo Yu once suggested to him whether it is possible to replace the "card battle" setting with a 3D model battle, so that players will feel more interesting when playing. .

Liu Neng didn't say good or bad at the time, but said that card battles can actually achieve great feedback.And when mobile games have not yet become popular, a new card game does not need to raise the player's taste to such a high level.Otherwise, wouldn't it be a way out for other game manufacturers?

Guo Yu was thinking that it is easier to make cards now, and then test it on a small scale to see the player's feedback.If the player feedback is not good, then change it immediately and replace it with a 3D model.But unexpectedly, card battle players are highly accepted, and when they play by themselves, they are also very emotional. The feedback of the attack with each knife actually has a feeling of being knifed to the flesh.

It is indeed incomprehensible.

In the end, I could only silently shout "Brother Neng" in my heart. It's over.

Liu Neng immediately shook his head, "No, not so fast, I didn't even think about it myself, how could I come up with the design so quickly?"

"When is the soonest?"

"When is the soonest? Next year, the middle of next year. Anyway, the game you have is enough for you to eat for two years without any problem. If it is run properly." Liu Neng thought for a while, and said earnestly, "It's a game, greedy You can’t get enough of it, you have to learn how to keep flowing. Anyway, there are few mobile games on the market now, and there are even fewer card RPG games like yours. The game will be officially launched at the end of the year?”

Guo Yu nodded, "Get ready for the Spring Festival."

"Exactly, this timing is good. But you must not waste your money, thinking how to empty the players' pockets in one go. That kind of operation strategy is not advisable... Forget it, I will do it for you when I am free these days." A case of payment strategy, I think the payment strategy of your previous games was too aggressive. This is not good.”

"You're right in everything you say." Guo Yu was happy now.

Speaking of the past two years, I have indeed been aggrieved a lot.I used to think that I was in charge of such a large branch company - the game business department of Shunliu Chuangyu, what kind of green onion would Liu Neng be?Throwing an olive branch to him, he shouldn't come running over and kneeling to lick it.

Who knows that people are not birds at all.

This psychological gap hit him hard, and it also caused Liu Neng to become his nightmare for more than a year later, and everything was aimed at him.To put it simply, if Liu Neng does Three Kingdoms, he will do Hero Kill; if Liu Neng makes web games, he also makes SLG web games; To engage in WCC, you have to fight in the arena face to face.

But the more vicious competition there is, the more he realizes that he doesn't have a single game he can play.The only thing that can be regarded as worthy of attention is the recent new WCC e-sports event, and the attention can be rivaled.But what's the use?I haven't made a profit until now, and I have been throwing money into it all the time. I don't know when I will see the money back.

Then this situation continued until the time when Liu Neng was under the most pressure from public opinion. I may have voted for Liu Neng out of consideration for the overall development of the game industry.What they got in return was a series of collaborations later on. Among other things, the game "My name is MT ol" can be said to be epoch-making...
