For ga, "The Lost Treasure" was a very disastrous failure.
This ip is the current popular ip to buy, and the price is not cheap.
The game production is completely at the 3A level, and the investment in VR games is huge.
A lot of money was also spent on the promotion of the "Lost Treasure" game.
But in the end, "The Lost Treasure" has so many advertisements, and this popular IP, it seems that they all serve "Uncharted Sea".
Chen Mobing slaughtered all the players who liked adventure games without bloodshed, while ga didn't even have a mouthful of soup.
Especially the designer of "The Lost Treasure" felt extremely depressed.
"The Lost Treasure" could have been his first work, after all, there has never been such a groundbreaking adventure game before. But with the appearance of "Uncharted Sea", he suddenly woke up from his dream.
For ga, the ip is definitely no problem. If the game is not done well, it must be the problem of the designer.
In terms of gameplay, it was blown away by "Uncharted Sea", so what else is there to say
…
Many players found that on the official website of ga, "The Lost Treasure", which originally occupied an important position, has been "downgraded" to a relatively insignificant position, and a brand new game has been replaced on the most eye-catching recommendation position on the homepage , there is no specific name for the time being, but it is called "Code Name Z Project".
The failure of "The Lost Treasure" is a foregone conclusion, and there is no need for GA to waste more publicity funds on it.
What's more, ga really needs to launch a new game quickly to divert players' attention from "The Lost Treasure". Always being ridiculed and ridiculed because of "The Lost Treasure", the top management of GA will also feel very uncomfortable.
The new game that was forced to launch this time also seems to be "caught ducks to the shelves". Many players are still making fun of it. Isn't this way of diverting attention too clumsy
But after looking at the designer and related materials of this "z project", many players realized: "ga, this is serious! Is it going to turn around??"
Although the game does not yet have a specific name, its designer is very famous, Josh Wilson.
This is one of the veteran designers of GA. He has developed "European masterpieces" that are highly praised by domestic players. He is especially good at describing game scenes and describing the inner feelings of game characters.
Perhaps in terms of gameplay, Josh Wilson does not have any special ideas, but his strengths lie in the game atmosphere, plot and character portrayal. In terms of "storytelling", he is a well-known designer in the world.
After hearing that Josh Wilson personally worked on the new project, the players stopped teasing about "diverting attention", because everyone knows that all the games he made can be called excellent in terms of storytelling. classic work.
These are also one of the few conscientious designers in GA.
After that, the attention of the players and the game media was indeed diverted from "The Lost Treasure". Everyone began to care, what is this so-called "Z project"
Players are very concerned about it, and ga is also very happy, this effect is what they want!
It's time to forget the unhappiness of the past and start a new journey!
Tgn also specially arranged an interview, hoping to get some inside information about the new game from Josh Wilson.
Soon, the interview video was released. Facing the tgn reporter, Josh Wilson talked eloquently, obviously very optimistic about the prospects of this project.
"I can't reveal too much about the specific content of this game, but what I can tell you is that the reason why this game is numbered as project z is because its key word is zombie, zombie."
"Of course, I know that players are tired of the traditional zombie theme, and the survival gameplay is a little outdated. But this time we are going to develop a project that focuses more on the plot."
"The reason for choosing the theme of zombies is that it can highlight human nature in such an end-of-day environment. We hope to create an unprecedented and desperate world, so that it can better highlight the difficulty of 'survival' for players."
In the interview, the reporter also asked about his views on "Uncharted" and "The Lost Treasure", as well as his outlook on the game of the year.
Josh Wilson seemed a little disapproving: "I think "The Lost Treasure" is a good game, but the current players may not be able to understand its beauty well."
"Of course, I'm not saying this to excuse the failure of "The Lost Treasure", what I want to emphasize is that success and failure in the game field itself is difficult to clearly define, and there are many good games that don't sell well. "
"As for "Uncharted", I must admit that it has merits in the picture, but I don't think it has anything particularly impressive in terms of plot processing."
"I'm not saying it's a bad plot, in fact, it's a pretty good popcorn plot, but... well, it lacks a little bit of depth."
"As for the game of the year... we all know that the judges prefer works that are innovative in gameplay and have profound connotations in plot and world view. Just like last year's "Dark Soul", I also like its obscure plot very much, but in "Mystery In Sea Territory, I felt a little sorry that silent didn't continue his previous style."
"So far, this year's game of the year is unclear, but I think this honor should belong to a work with a deeper connotation."
This exclusive interview was quickly reposted on domestic video sites, which aroused heated discussions among players.
On the one hand, many players who are looking forward to the Z project are looking forward to this new game. Although the theme of zombies is not particularly novel, the zombie game written by Josh Wilson himself is still very worth looking forward to.
On the other hand, this video also caused ridicule from many domestic players.
I can smell a sour smell even through the screen!
Of course, as a designer under GA, it is normal for Josh to speak to "The Lost Treasure". "Uncharted" is quite inauthentic.
However, there are also many players who feel that there is no need to delve into this matter, because although what Josh said is a bit inappropriate, it is reasonable to a certain extent.
"Uncharted" is indeed not that classic in terms of plot.
As an adventure theme, the plot of "Uncharted" is very good, with brotherhood, friendship, and love, making Nathan a flesh-and-blood character.
But no matter how good it is, it doesn't break away from the category of "popcorn", and there is nothing particularly thought-provoking and amazing content.
