Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Chapter 381: I'm going to lose again

Views:

There are not many days left until the Spring Festival, and Nebula Games has basically entered a relatively leisurely state for the time being, because the content of the Spring Festival activities has basically been prepared in advance.

As for the team, the follow-up DLC about Marston in "Red Dead Redemption" has not yet been included in the development plan.

The main work at hand is this part of the online content.

However, there are actually not many things left to work on. For example, the gameplay related to the manor has been tested in many aspects through previous themes and has basically been perfected.

The remaining directions and activities are the special discounts on all games in conjunction with the Spring Festival.

It’s the New Year, and we must have the joy of the New Year.

Gun skins and boxes in "Rainbow Six: Siege"

Discount!

Gun skins and boxes in "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare"

Same discount!

Who doesn't want to prepare some new year's goods for the Chinese New Year

This is him, a very conscientious designer.

A 50% discount on a 300 game is equivalent to him losing 150 yuan.

When a player buys a copy, he loses 150. Thinking about it, it feels like he is doing charity!

But there is no way around it. After all, you always have to bear some responsibility when you go out to do activities.

Of course, except for the various charity discounts that almost made Nebula Games bankrupt.

There is also an additional theme giveaway.

During the development of "Red Dead Redemption", Chen Xu and his team still made some new moves.

That is the construction of some game theme scenes.

And these thematic scenes can be said to be of considerable collection significance.

So Chen Xu decided not to sell, but only to give away.

A New Year’s gift to players who have always supported Nebula Games.

Anyone who spends a total of 500 yuan on the Nebula gaming platform will receive a free copy of the VR themed scene of the "Dark Souls" Fire Sacrifice.

Those who spend a total of 1,000 yuan will receive a VR themed scene of the star stronghold of "Monster Hunter: World" as a gift.

Those who spend a total of 2,000 yuan will receive a VR-themed scene of Stormwind City in "Warcraft" as a gift.

Of course, if the player's consumption is not reached, he will also prepare a big gift.

That is the VR theme scene of Jushan Mental Hospital in "Escape"!

Of course, don’t feel that Nebula Games is inappropriate after seeing “Escape”.

This will be a New Year’s special edition VR themed scene of Jushan Mental Hospital.

The entire mental hospital no longer has a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, but is full of the joyful New Year atmosphere. By then, Jushan Mental Hospital will be brightly lit and decorated with festoons.

The NPC as a priest will take the stage to give a New Year's speech. Fat Uncle, Doctor Scissors, and the patients in the hospital are all enjoying themselves.

Of course, since it is a New Year special edition, everyone must perform their duties after the New Year.

As for these themes, they are naturally to prepare for the subsequent porting of the original game to the PC platform.

If all content is transplanted, it cannot be completed in a day or two.

These themed scenes are mainly for players to join in the fun and give them something to think about.

By the way, there are certain playable contents in these themed game scenes. This can also be regarded as a test for players to see their performance in VR mode and related operating habits.

For example, in "Dark Soul" on the PC platform, when players face the boss, most of the time they are rolling around on the ground.

But if it is made into VR mode, you have to consider whether it is a calmer first-person perspective or a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective.

There is also the use of cameras in the game. You can't always make the player roll on the ground during a fight. The camera really allows the player to roll around on the ground from the first perspective. Or when facing a huge boss, the player's first perspective can really only be Another pedicure

These things can also be considered as a forward-looking investigation through the content in VR theme scenes.

Of course, not all other games are ported.

For example, the theme scene of "Warcraft" will be Stormwind City, a human main city.

But Chen Xu has no plans to port "Warcraft" to VR, because RTS games are indeed not suitable for playing on VR platforms.

As for WoW's current Chen Xu, he has no plans, because if it is developed, Chen Xu will definitely not be satisfied with restoring the level of the previous life, or just making the graphics better on the PC platform.

Judging from the current level of VR technology, it is obviously still a big challenge for Wow.

Because there are enough players to consider.

And in terms of maps and content, the workload of WoW can even be said to be much larger than that of "Red Dead Redemption".

After all, "Red Dead Redemption" only needs to create a few fictional states, but wow involves the entire Azeroth.

Now I put a VR theme of "Warcraft" just because it is a relatively important IP of Nebula Games, and at the same time, it can be regarded as accumulating some art resources and experience.

Including the follow-up, it will only be updated a little bit. When one day the technology is sufficient, Chen Xu will consider truly bringing Azeroth to the parallel world.

… … … …

As the Spring Festival approaches, many people are very happy.

After all, it’s the annual holiday, which is also the longest holiday of the year.

Everyone is immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the festival.

Many players also purchase various New Year goods in advance.

Of course, compared with the past when online shopping was inconvenient, many players are now more accustomed to doing things online during the Spring Festival that need to be prepared.

It was at this time that Chen Xu's official blog took the lead.

Players who were originally thinking about what to buy for the New Year and what games to play on the Internet immediately started discussing it after seeing Chen Xu's official blog.

"It's coming, it's coming! Sure enough, this year's Nebula Games has another special holiday!"

"Damn it, there are spring specials, summer specials, autumn specials, winter specials, New Year specials, the co-authored Nebula gaming platform has all kinds of specials all year round!?"

"Stop talking, I'll just ask you if it smells good!"

"Smells come true, my wallet can't hold it!"

"Why is this damn green discount so magical? I suddenly can't control my hands, no... my money!"

"The original price of games was more than 300 or 400, but now they are all over 100! Chen Xu is about to become the richest man!"

"Wait a minute, brothers! There are new activities this year!"

"Let's see... Damn it, limited theme!?"

“500 will give you the VR theme of Dark Souls, and 1000 will give you Monster Hunter. Damn it, and it’s a cumulative consumption. Does that mean my previous consumption also counts?”

"Wait a minute, is there something wrong mixed into these VR themes? What the hell is the New Year's special edition of Jushan Mental Hospital!"

Looking at Chen Xu's official blog, all the players who were still immersed in the New Year atmosphere were shocked.
