Top game producer

Most players expressed great anticipation.

"《Beyond Light Speed》, the game's name alone exudes a strong sense of space!"

"A Dragon's Abyss product is sure to be a masterpiece! I can't wait to play it!"

"Space-themed games are my favorite! The boundless galaxy, the fiercely burning stars, the deep, dark black holes—everything is so exhilarating!"

"This is fantastic! I'm especially into space movies and games this year! I just hope the difficulty isn't too high!"

Remember the premiere website domain 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞

However, a few players raised concerns.

"Looking at Weibo, it seems like quite a few game companies are planning to make space-themed games these days?"

"The topic of gravitational waves is still very popular, and space has suddenly become the hottest subject for novels and games recently!"

"It's so annoying when they rush to capitalize on trends like this; the quality of the games will definitely suffer."

"If game companies all act like Dragon's Abyss, this genre will be ruined quickly!"

"Heh, the interview even said that the market isn't the primary consideration! How dare they say that!"

Soon, the two factions were arguing fiercely!

"Dragon's Abyss riding the hype? You're going to make me laugh! Would riding the hype lead them to make a niche tower defense game?"

"Use your brain; it's obvious they're riding the hype. Is there any doubt?"

"The sales of 《Kingdom Defense》 alone are enough for Dragon's Abyss to live off for a lifetime. Do they need to ride the hype?"

"I used to like the games made by Wang Jian, but seeing these brainless fans is really uncomfortable. ░▒▓█►─═ ═─◄█▓▒░"

"How did this become riding the hype? They were originally planning to make a space-themed game, okay?"

"The fact is right there: space themes are hot, so everyone is making space games. Merchants pursue profit; there's nothing wrong with that. But to insist that this isn't riding the hype is just unreasonable."

"I originally thought they were the light of Chinese games, but I didn't expect them to fall so quickly."

"Someone's criticizing the creator who made games like 《To the Moon》 and 《Kingdom Defense》? I'm speechless."

"Did Wang Jian pay you to defend him so much?"

"Which army are you from? Earning dirty money with your family's account?"

"I'm scared, I'm scared. Wang Jian has so many brain-dead fans."

"It seems that domestic games will never catch up with foreign games in this lifetime."

"Can't you wait patiently for the game to come out before speaking? Not even a single game screenshot has been released, and you're already sighing and lamenting, as if you already know the final quality of the game?"

"Based on this attitude toward making games, this game is definitely going to be a terrible game."

"Even if we take a step back, what does it matter if they're riding the hype as long as they can make a good game?"

"Heh, who was it that said it wasn't riding the hype just now, and now they're admitting it?"

"Oh, you're such a logic master. Never mind, then."

The people on both sides quickly shifted from arguing about "Is Wang Jian riding the hype?" to "Is 《Beyond Light Speed》 a terrible game?" and before long, it escalated into friendly mutual greetings!

Wang Jian also saw the argument. Although he was surprised that such a thing could cause a fight, he didn't really care.

What can you do these days that doesn't get you criticized? Trolls just want to vent their frustration; they don't need a reason at all.

If you care too much about negative comments, then you can't do anything at all.

Making a good game is more important than anything.

After finishing his takeout, Wang Jian browsed the latest game news for a while.

At the bottom of the computer screen, a notification popped up: 《Silver Star Spaceship》 download complete.

"I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to study," Wang Jian murmured, wiping his mouth with a tissue, as he opened the game.

He wanted to see what the highlights of this game were and whether it could bring him some inspiration.

……

Wang Jian devoted himself to studying, and two hours passed quickly.

Just as he finished replenishing supplies for his spaceship and was about to take to the skies, his phone suddenly rang.

"Hmm?" Wang Jian was a little puzzled.

He didn't have many contacts, and since it was the holidays, unless there was a special situation, the contacts in his list knew his habits and would usually leave a message on Feixun instead of calling him directly.

He looked at the caller ID; it was Luo Shuai.

"Hello, Luo Shuai, what's up?"

Luo Shuai's voice sounded a little annoyed: "Boss, look at Weibo. A producer from Huan Kong Games just dissed you."

Wang Jian was a bit confused. He saved and closed the game, then opened a browser: "Huh? Why? I'm usually well-behaved and low-key. How did I provoke him?"

He knew about Huan Kong Games. It was a company specializing in space games and had made many classic space games. The most famous was the 《Great Universe》 series. However, the last game, 《Great Universe: IX》, which had a large investment and was highly anticipated by players, received a mediocre response after its release and probably lost a lot of money.

"He's implying that you're riding the hype or something. Anyway, a lot of netizens are arguing, arguing like crazy. Just take a look at Weibo and you'll know!"

Wang Jian opened Weibo and immediately saw a bunch of people @ing him, and the source was Wu Chi, the producer of Huan Kong Games, with his latest post!

The post was long, and he read it very carefully.

"When I saw the news that gravitational waves had been confirmed, I couldn't help but shed tears of joy, and my mood was unable to calm down for a long time. I believe every space enthusiast can understand my feelings…

However, subsequently, dozens of game companies announced their space game plans at the same time. However, most of these companies specialize in areas that are not in this field at all, and I have never heard of any related plans before. I could have pretended not to know about these situations, but last night I felt very uncomfortable and couldn't sleep for a long time. In the end, I decided to muster the courage to talk about this matter.

……

I was even shocked to see a rising star producer who had just achieved great success mention in an interview that he was planning to join in on the fun, which made me very shocked. A bad trend is destroying the current game industry.

……

I'm not trying to denounce anything, but I want to tell these people that if you want to make games, you should treat them with sincerity.

Take 《Great Universe: X》, which Huan Kong Games is currently developing, as an example. Just to verify various celestial phenomena and make the game's details more realistic, we invited Professor Bao from the Astronomy Department of Hua Xing University as a consultant and repeatedly deliberated.

As for the game's music, we commissioned the famous foreign space music master Stephen William to compose it. Although the composition fee is very expensive, it's all worth it if it allows players to feel the vast beauty of the universe.

……

You can call me a hypocrite, say I'm meddling, and accuse me of actually doing it for profit, but it's precisely because I love this genre that I don't want to see it destroyed by these speculators.

I've said what I wanted to say. Those who want to scold me can go ahead; I'm prepared."

After reading the post, Wang Jian was dumbfounded, and the words "Holy crap" blurted out!
