A real cheat was blocked, and the game industry was rectified with a backhand

Late April.

The game exchange conference opened again after a year and a half.

This internal industry experience and technology exchange meeting, which is not open to the public, naturally invites Naughty Cat.

However, Lin Mo was really lacking in skills.

But whether it’s Dark Souls, Overwatch, Apex Legends, or Monster Hunter.

These are games worth writing home about.

So, Lin Mo waved his hand.

Let the people below take the lead!

As a result, several key members of the company were assigned tasks.

Lin Mo himself became a student attending the lecture.

Hang around in various venues and learn from other game producers.

Not to mention, I have been stimulated by the Naughty Cat game in the past few years.

Many game producers are really open-minded.

Lin Mo was also surprised by some novel ideas.

Sure enough, there is no shortage of geniuses in the world.

The one he was listening to at this time was about the future of turn-based games.

The speaker is quite young and his name is Zheng Ming.

He was a key member of the Jianxian series back then, and he left the company after Jianxian 4.

It is said that it was due to internal struggle.

He also established his own studio, but his work has always been lukewarm.

On the verge of dissolution.

".So I think that although turn-based gameplay is not outdated, it is a very inclusive game element. I am looking forward to the performance of this game type in mobile games and other fields."

After the speech, applause broke out.

It's just a little sparse.

Lin Mo applauded several times after hearing this.

This Zheng Ming still has some abilities.

Having focused on turn-based games for so many years, I have a deep understanding.

But there are still many unrealistic things in what he just said, which makes it difficult to put into practice.

After a few minutes of rest, the next person came on stage.

Only this time, in addition to applause, there was also some laughter in the venue.

Lin Mo was also looked at a few times by many people.

Zhou Wenguang.

In the infinite future, driving high and moving low can almost be a death sentence, and you will be beaten to a pulp by Apex.

Even when playing games with Lao Xue, he said "I copied all my homework wrongly" which made Dongrong Interactive Entertainment lose face.

Zhou Wenguang cleared his throat and glanced at Zheng Ming, who was sitting in his seat, and Lin Mo, who had not been on stage during the game exchange meeting.

"Since the development process of Jianxian 8 is very fast, I will give this lecture on my behalf."

“What I’m talking about today is the future of domestic turn-based games.”

"I think that in the current environment, turn-based games can be considered an outdated game type that cannot achieve commercial results."

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Ming's face in the audience didn't look good.

Two completely opposite arguments instantly attracted everyone's attention, and even caused some uproar.

"This is supported by data from the annual report released by the Gaming Council at the beginning of the year. In the past five years, a total of 132 turn-based games were released. How many games have sales of more than 100 million? There is only one."

Many people have already guessed the name of this game.

Sword Immortal 7.

Although the reputation is poor, the sales are still good.

It was during the announcement.

With the slogan of "classic reappearance" and the inclusion of characters from old works that were once popular, it sparked a wave of discussion.

In short, it is just a selling of feelings.

Zhou Wenguang listed the data item by item to prove his point first.

Then he added: "So, I think turn-based games will gradually die out in the future. The future must be to step out of the comfort zone and change to action games as players expect!"

When these words were spoken, some people nodded and some frowned.

Lin Mo was the one frowning.

Zhou Wenguang's next speech even disparaged the turn-based system as useless.

On the contrary, the action game will be infinitely improved.

This upset many people.

Okay, I know you acquired Ruanyue Studio, and Jian Xian 8 has been changed into an action game.

None of us are at that level.

Okay?

Well said, don't say it again.

But the expectations in my heart did not materialize.

Zhou Wenguang spoke for a full forty minutes before finally ending.

Many people in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

The lecture, which was supposed to be an hour long, had not yet arrived, and the next speaker had not yet arrived.

The host walked onto the stage and had an idea: "Thank you to the teachers for their wonderful lectures. Now, how about we ask Mr. Lin to summarize it for everyone? Please applaud."

As soon as these words came out, the applause instantly became enthusiastic.

Lin Mo excused himself.

But helplessly, many people, including Zheng Ming, shouted: "Mr. Lin, please say a few words and judge what we just said."

"That's right, Teacher Lin is famous for his novel and practical game concepts."

"Just say a few words. It'll only take ten minutes."

Lin Mo had no choice but to step onto the stage.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Since I have not prepared in advance, the following remarks will be treated as exchanges. Everyone here is also welcome to discuss it together."

"First of all, Mr. Zhang's views on open world games. I also think that the popularity of this game type in recent years is suspected of being a 'version trap'"

“Wang Yi’s talk about soul-based games is good, but there is one thing we should pay attention to.”

"In the design of mobile games, lightweight is an idea, but it is not a bad idea to combine it with the open world and develop it with a large-scale 3A idea."

"Finally, a word about turn-based games and prospects."

Lin Mo thought for a while and said: "I agree with what Teacher Zheng Ming said. Turn-based is a very inclusive element. The quality of its use will test the level of the design and production team. There is no such thing as an outdated game type."

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Ming in the audience became happy and let out a sigh of relief.

The designers who looked at it looked surprised and couldn't help but straighten their chests.

See, you don't believe me.

You have to believe what Mr. Lin said, right?

Let me just say, the classic genre of turn-based games will never disappear.

Zhou Wenguang's face on the other side immediately darkened.

Apex proved to defeat Infinite Future, and now the competition is in full swing. The latter was even abandoned by Dongrong Interactive Entertainment.

Combined with these words, it made him think.

Is Lin Mo taking revenge?

Ridiculed in person?

So he stood up without hesitation and said: "Mr. Lin, since you said it was communication, I will speak frankly."

On the stage, Lin Mo looked at him condescendingly, showing no trace of anger, and said calmly: "Please speak."

"I think this statement is misleading." Zhou Wenguang said sharply, "The data does not lie. In the past five years, only 37% of turn-based games have recovered their costs. How do you explain this?"

Lin Mo looked at him and said slowly: "I have said that the turn-based system is very inclusive, but the gameplay itself cannot attract players, and it tests the level of the production team.
