Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

On the annual game awards day, many invited designers entered the venue one after another. When Chen Xu entered, there were already many people on the scene.

Compared to previous years, this year's awards ceremony was even more lively.

Not only the designers in the industry, but even Chen Xu has seen a lot of players.

This is what makes this year different from previous years.

In the past, although it was also open for players to participate in.

But on the spot, there are only game designers in the industry.

And this year, there will be players who will be drawn immediately to participate.

The major live video sites also broadcast simultaneously.

Many players who are concerned about the situation in the game industry are watching on the spot.

On the barrage, many viewers are also discussing.

"What's the picture! What's the picture! What a door!"

"Open the door, open the door! That's Chen Xu, right!?"

"What's the situation? Chen Xu is signing autographs for the players!? Who said before that when we saw Chen Xu at the scene, we must boo him and resist this warrior knife of love, our young hearts? Group photo and autograph?"

"Don't say it, I didn't go to the scene, otherwise!"

"Or else you must give Chen Xu a good look?"

"No, I must have two autographs together!"

The annual awards ceremony has not yet started, but many lucky players have found their favorite designers and sought group photos and autographs.

Of course, it is because there are not many players participating, only about fifty or so.

Otherwise, there would be no such link.

Chen Xu and some designers from Nebula Games entered the venue. During this period, many designers from the industry went online to greet Chen Xu.

They are all very friendly. After all, it can be said that domestic game designers all show a love for Nebula Games.

Otherwise, there is still a pattern in China where channels are king.

After greeting each other with a smile, Chen Xu also took a seat.

But what surprised Chen Xu was that he sat with an old acquaintance again this year.

"Mr. Meng is a coincidence!" Chen Xu looked at Meng Zuo and greeted him.

"It's quite a coincidence." Meng Zuo was also a little speechless. It was like this for several consecutive sessions, and he didn't know if it was intentional from the game department.

"Mr. Chen shouldn't have to let me get the trophy this year." Looking at the designer of the Nebula Game Department next to him, Meng Zuo also joked.

"Cough cough...Mr. Meng is joking, this year is not necessarily so." Chen Xu coughed twice.

"Okay, the designers who came to participate, who doesn't know that everyone is going through the motions today." Meng Zuo rolled his eyes and said.

Chen Xu didn't answer, after all, it's really not easy to answer.

"However, Mr. Chen, the war zone mode of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" and "Red Dead Redemption" have really brought a lot of influence to the industry." Meng Zuo said with emotion.

"Mr. Meng's words are serious, but the real impact is not that big." Chen Xu shook his head and said.

As for why I say this, I mainly looked at my system points after developing "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption".

It didn't grow as much as expected.

Among them, Chen Xu also summarized the situation.

That is a point. Today's point harvesting needs to have an impact on the industry. In the middle, Chen Xu has developed two games "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" and "Red Dead Redemption".

But in fact, the influence of the two games themselves is actually far less than the popularity.

On the contrary, the battle royale mode of "War Zone" has made the game industry see a direction.

But the battle royale is not something that any game manufacturer can do. The battle royale game in the previous life has appeared for nearly six years, and the successful games can almost be counted on one hand.

Including "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption", although leading the concept of open world, "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption" is simply an industrialized open world design concept.

To put it bluntly, in addition to the design direction of the plot and rhythm, it also needs two words: money.

This is also the core reason why the previous life "Red Dead Redemption" lost to "God of War" in the best game of the year.

Meng Zuo, who didn't know what Chen Xu was thinking, only regarded it as modest.

Sitting in a chair, Meng Zuo chatted with Chen Xu about something.

Soon, the award ceremony officially started, the host took the stage as in previous years, and then Yang Chen, the leader of the game department, took the stage to give a speech.

Announcing the list of senior designer titles selected this year, and then approaching the qualification certificate, is a set of processes.

After that, there are a series of awards.

But the one who got the most attention was Chen Xu.

Because up to now, it is almost an award that can be related, and Chen Xu has won one.

For example, the Best Music Award went directly to 'That's the Way It Is' in Red Dead Redemption.

Also won the first award today.

And this seems to be a start, starting with some small awards.

For example, best game direction, best art direction, voice of the players, best sound design, best acting, and even more heavyweight best design, best action-adventure, and best VR Red Dead Redemption is split with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Rainbow Six: Siege.

The continuous appearance on the stage also attracted the envy of the designers under the stage.

"This year is going to go against the sky! How many awards are there?"

"The key is that there are both small prizes and grand prizes!"

"Actually, it's not surprising. Chen Xu didn't develop VR games in the first two years. Otherwise, he felt that "Warcraft" could be selected for the best of the year."

"Yeah, these two games launched by Chen Xu this year are both highly representative and have special significance. "Red Dead Redemption" and "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" are the escort masterpieces of Universal VR. ."

"But I feel that these game themes are a bit westernized! The game department won't consider this?"

"Have you ever played it? The game has darkened a lot of the West, and the turbulent situation overseas is unique in the domestic landscape. This is positive energy, okay?"

"No, I don't like to hear what you say. What do you mean by hacking the West? Chen Xu is telling the truth."

"Actually, this is all trivial. It is mainly about the overseas market of Universal VR. Now it has almost fought against the zeus chamber. This is the most important point. If the zeus market can be squeezed out, the future VR equipment can be directly formulated. Standards, that's the most important thing."

Designers in the industry are discussing.

As for online players, they don't think so much.

On the live broadcast platform, players swiped the barrage one after another.

"Haha, this scene reminds me of the scene when Chen Xu participated in the annual game a few years ago. It seems that he also won a lot of awards."

"233333, did you not notice? The designer next to Chen Xu seems to be the one from a few years ago!"

"Unknown designer: are you polite?"

I don't know if it's polite or not, but Meng Zuo does have some resentment now.

Originally, he thought that there was a designer from the Nebula game department next to Chen Xu, so he didn't need to help hold the trophy, but in the end he still didn't escape.

"Mr. Meng troubles you again." Chen Xu said apologetically.

Meng Zuo didn't speak, rolled his eyes, his heart was full of resentment, please don't highlight this word again, okay?

And over there, as the host came to the stage, the final winner of the best game of the year was announced.

But in fact, everyone knows that this year's best game has no suspense at all.

Including the host on the stage did not sell the same as before.

announced directly.

There is no doubt, just as everyone guessed in advance.

"Red Dead Redemption" won the award of the year.

And it's undisputed.

Because not only domestically, but before the annual game awards ceremony in China.

"Red Dead Redemption: Redemption" has also won numerous awards abroad.

With the most classic scene in "Red Dead Redemption" on the stage, the sick Arthur rode back to the camp to complete his final redemption animation in the background music, Chen Xu came to the stage to accept the award and thank him.

As Chen Xu waved the best trophy of the year, this annual game awards ceremony also ended perfectly.

In the warm applause and the cheers of dozens of players on the scene, the designers in the venue also left one after another under the guidance of the staff.

Chen Xu, on the other hand, handed the trophy to the staff at the ceremony and entrusted it to be sent back to Nebula Games.

He and Meng Zuo found a restaurant and just took this opportunity to have a good chat.

"Not at NetDragon?" Chen Xu and Meng Zuo were a little surprised.

"Actually, NetDragon has treated me well, but the main thing is that the development of games has lost that passion." Meng Zuo nodded and said.

"It's like having a meal with Mr. Chen. It's okay to get a beer if you don't say it plainly. Are two big men eating barbecue, skewers and drinking herbal tea?" Meng Zuo rolled his eyes and filled himself with a glass. Speechless with fluttering bubbles.

"Drinking hurts your health, how good is herbal tea." Chen Xu replied casually, "But if you haven't decided to go home, Mr. Meng, how should Nebula Games consider it?"

"Let me think about this again." Meng Zuo was a little moved, but he didn't give an immediate answer.

"By the way, Mr. Meng, what do you think of the handheld?" Chen Xu suddenly asked.

"Why do you suddenly say handheld devices?" Meng Zuo was a little strange, but he still said: "In terms of opinion, I think handheld devices are a fairly potential market, and it is different from PC, VR and mobile phones. A more balanced point among the three."

"But this is my personal opinion. UU reading www.uukanshu.com because I am more of a handheld player, and to be honest, now that the mobile phone configuration is getting higher and higher, the competitiveness of handheld computers is really not much." Meng Zuo Think about it and express your opinion.

This is also a relatively mainstream view in the game industry. Even seeing some old-fashioned handheld consoles at home and abroad declining, Meng Zuo is also a pity.

Because this thing is considered youthful at his age. When he was a child, he couldn't play on the computer at home, and there was no VR equipment. On the one hand, the configuration of the mobile phone was not that high at that time, and Yan Guang had a phone card and no traffic at home.

The only thing that makes the game fun is the small handheld.

"Mr. Chen, do you want to be a handheld computer?" Meng Zuo asked strangely.

"I can't tell you that. After all, Mr. Meng, you are not your own now." Chen Xu smiled and did not respond positively.

"Don't talk about pulling it down." Meng Zuo rolled his eyes and didn't ask any further.

Seeing Meng Zuo's appearance, Chen Xu smiled.

Regarding the handheld, Chen Xu is not considered a whim, but he does have this idea and consideration.
