Chapter 105: It has been imitated and never surpassed

Views:

Just seeing this batch of line drafts, everyone's enthusiasm is already very high. Especially when they think that the world of Azeroth will be turned into an rpg game, everyone is very excited.

People like Wen Lingwei and Jia Peng never thought about it. What Chen Mo wants to do is actually RTS. After all, RTS games are dominated by foreign manufacturers, and domestic companies simply cannot play them.

Everyone felt that for Chen Mo, making an rpg game was the safest choice.

Wen Lingwei suddenly remembered something, and said to Chen Mo: "By the way, store manager, have you paid attention to the new game of Zen Interactive Entertainment recently?"

Chen Mo shook his head: "No, what new game?"

Wen Lingwei said: "It seems to be called "Seven Heroes", a large-scale rpg game with a martial arts theme, and it's on the PC side."

Zheng Hongxi said: "Well, I paid attention to it. It seems that the internal test qualification is open today, and the public test will be two months away."

Chen Mo also became interested: "Really? What type, tell me in detail."

Zheng Hongxi said: "I took a look at the general introduction video. In fact, "Legend of the Sword" has been turned over and replaced with a martial arts hero."

Jia Peng said: "Huh? That's okay too? It's lazy to entertain each other with Zen."

Zheng Hongxi said: "It's not considered lazy. After all, "Legend of the Sword" is so successful, random changes to the gameplay may ruin the game. It's a safer way to do it yourself."

Chen Mo nodded. In fact, this kind of situation was also common in previous lives. After a game has been successful, most game companies do not have the courage to make major changes. Innovation is not so easy, and it may lose the fun of the original game.

Therefore, it is actually a safer way to reinvent the skin yourself. Replace the theme of Xianxia with the theme of Wuxia, and redo the content, packaging, occupation, combat system, etc., but the core gameplay does not change, so the risk of failure is reduced to a minimum. lowest.

Qian Kun said: "Looks like it should be considered as testing the waters. If the PC side can be successful, we will develop the VR version. This is an old routine."

Zheng Hongxi said: "The success of the PC side should be close to ten. After all, in China, the gameplay of "Legend of the Sword" is still at the top level."

While everyone was talking, Su Jinyu suddenly said in surprise: "Hey? Everyone, check Weibo, the official Weibo of Dichao Huyu! They also want to release a new game!"

Everyone took out their mobile phones one after another and opened Weibo to have a look. Indeed, the official Weibo of Dichao Huyu even posted a new game trailer!

After "My name is mt", Chen Mo developed "Thunder Chess" and "Lifeline". Nearly four months have passed.

Obviously during this period of time, Dichao Huyu has not been idle.

Imperial Entertainment's official Weibo: "The new game "Ion World" is about to open its closed beta, and reservations are in full swing! The grand world background and rich racial settings will bring you a different role-playing experience!"

There are also a few original paintings under Weibo, including human knights, orc warriors, elf archers, etc., as well as a few scene original paintings. The overall feeling is classic Western fantasy.

Zheng Hongxi was also shocked: "What the hell is this shit? How could Dichao think of doing Western Fantasy?"

Wen Lingwei complained: "Return to the world of Ain, this name is a fake Azeroth, right?"

Su Jinyu asked, "Manager, what do you think?"

Chen Moyile: "There is nothing to think about this. The theme of Western Fantasy is basically half-dead in China. Emperor Dynasty and Zen Yi used to regard Western Fantasy as a forbidden zone, but now they suddenly want to do Western Fantasy , and uses a completely original world view, apparently..."

Zheng Hongxi continued: "I want to copy Azeroth."

Chen Mo smiled and nodded: "Yes."

Jia Peng said indignantly: "Wow, Dichao has really set a new limit. It's almost the store manager who makes one and they copy the other. How can such a big company not even want face?"

Wen Lingwei added: "Even unmade games were copied."

Chen Mo smiled: "Don't worry, they have copied so many, is there one that surpasses the original?"

Su Jinyu said: "Then, store manager, we can't ignore it? We should be able to sue them for plagiarizing the worldview, right?"

Chen Mo said: "Didn't they all change it? You see, this game is obviously based on the classic Western Fantasy setting, but it's just 'borrowing' some ideas from the Azeroth universe, and I dare not borrow from it." too much."

Su Jinyu was still very dissatisfied: "Then, store manager, shall we do nothing?"

Chen Mo shook his head: "That's impossible, do you think I'm the kind of person who will suffer? Come on, Jinyu, bring me my mobile phone."

Su Jinyu was taken aback for a moment: "Huh?"

Chen Mo secretly pointed to the table next to him: "That's it."

Su Jinyu was speechless: "The store manager, you are a good showman. If you can't take it within two steps, it's over. Treat yourself as the emperor."

Having said that, Su Jinyu still took two steps, brought the phone to Chen Mo, and handed it to him.

Everyone was puzzled, what is Chen Mo going to do? Is it possible to touch porcelain again

Chen Mo posted a Weibo with only one picture: Alsace's concept draft.

He thought for a while, and added a sentence: "I have been imitated all the time, but have never been surpassed."

As soon as this Weibo was posted, it was basically the same as Dichao Huyu's Weibo, and the time difference was less than five minutes.

As soon as this Weibo came out, the people who eat melons were shocked!

Originally, when these people saw Dichao Huyu's Weibo, they were rolling up their sleeves and moved a small bench to start spraying, but when they saw Chen Mo's Weibo, who would care about Dichao Huyu's Weibo

Although Chen Mo's Weibo only has one line draft and one sentence, the amount of information is overwhelming!

In the Azeroth universe, there are more than a dozen entries related to Arthas. Everyone knows that he is a key figure in the entire Azeroth universe, and many people who eat melons also know that Arthas Some of his deeds.

Moreover, even if you don't know who Arthas is, just looking at this line draft makes you feel awesome!

Look at this shape, this look, this setting, coupled with the cool skeleton horse and Frostmourne, just two words, handsome!

Compared with this line draft, the exquisite original paintings of "Ion World" are like girls with heavy make-up, just like Dong Shi's imitation, no matter how hard you try to put on makeup, it will be completed in seconds by Chen Mo's line draft Scumbag!

On the contrary, it exuded a strong cottage atmosphere.

What's more, Chen Mo was lucky enough to add a sentence: "I have always been imitated, but never surpassed."

Yes, these words are so esoteric!

"Plants vs. Zombies", "My name is mt", "Thunder Chess", no matter what themes and genres, regardless of conscience or cheating, Chen Mo basically makes one, and other designers copy one like flies , the onlookers can hardly watch it anymore!

And this time, Emperor Dynasty even copied the Azeroth universe? It really refreshed the shameless lower limit!

But looking at Chen Mo's game again, indeed, it has never been surpassed! No matter how hard these people copy, Chen Mo's next game will still continue to beat them!
