Chapter 347 NS is on fire again, new game ideas
Unexpectedly, "Two People" has become the most popular game at present. On the one hand, it is because the game has a very good topicality, and on the other hand, it is also because its quality is indeed very hard.
In the current stage when major VR games are frequently online and fighting.
In order to avoid becoming cannon fodder for the major manufacturers' games, there are no special games on the market.
And "Two Players" does not belong to the same track as other manufacturers' games.
Not a VR game, but also a two-player cooperative game.
This makes it naturally one of the main first choices of players, after all, it is fresh.
Coupled with the name of Nebula Games, this unique game starts to explode.
Then experience the content in the game, the unique storyboard advantage, like a movie-like game experience. Exquisite cartoon pictures, just right and colorful gameplay, and a warm plot...
These elements have made a cartoon-like cooperative game like "Two Players" won unanimous praise from players.
Even the popularity of "Two Players" has made many players discover an interesting phenomenon.
That is, the sales of NS at home and abroad have experienced a big increase, and there has even been a short wave of out-of-stocks.
Including games like Super Mario Odyssey, which again topped the bestseller list.
You must know that these games, even the "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild", which is praised by players as heaven, have been online for a while after all.
And it's different from PC and VR platforms that are purely digital media.
Located in NS, a unique handheld-host integrated platform, it has the medium of cassettes.
So for later players, in more cases, they will not buy games, but will choose second-hand cassettes. After all, even if they are not suitable and not fun, they can still recover blood.
Of course, this is not to say that Odyssey is not good. The great thing about this game is its level shaping and design concept.
Not out of date even now.
But after all, it is an old game, and there are also cassettes circulating in the second-hand market. How can it be inexplicably popular like the NS machine?
Players discussed it online for a while before they figured out what was going on. It turned out to be benefiting from the popularity of "Two Together".
You must know that when NS was just released, this machine had a famous name.
That is some players who are not used to NS being able to sell so well, or they are called "women and children machine" by their peers.
But it is undeniable that if you want to choose a platform with the highest proportion of female players.
Put aside the PC that has become an everyday appliance.
In the professional game equipment, that is NS.
And the cartoon style of "A Row of Two" has also attracted many female players.
In this situation of mutual benefit and planting grass, together with another group of emerging female players, they learned about the platform of NS.
At the same time, it is very important that "Super Mario: Odyssey" is also a two-player cooperative game.
The excellent gameplay design, coupled with the two-player mode, has naturally become the first choice for those new players.
After all, although NS has already sold tens of millions in the world, it can be broken down into each country and region, and among the entire player group, there are still many players who have never been in contact with it.
Every time it becomes a popular game, it will naturally attract a large wave of traffic.
And these players were shocked when they came into contact with NS and Odyssey after the popularity of "Two Together".
It was like opening a door to a new world.
Then these players searched for a series of keywords such as Nebula games, Chen Xu, cooperative games, etc., and stumbled upon a game with a very similar art style, "Naughty Kitchen".
As for how many friends will turn against each other and how many families will be separated, this is not something Chen Xu should consider.
Of course, this is still a joke. After all, "Naughty Kitchen" is a game developed by Chen Xu a few years ago, and it was also a game that landed on PC early and was later ported to NS.
Many players are basically aware of it before playing.
…
Inside the office of Nebula Games.
During the lunch break at noon, many employees also experienced "Two Together" in the entertainment area.
"Mr. Chen, players on the Internet can't believe it, this is a game you made. 〃!" Yang Xin held his mobile phone next to him and laughed heartily while reading various jokes written by players in the Nebula game community.
"It can only be said that players are too prejudiced against me. Although I have played many games that made players crash, I have also played many family-friendly games. In the end, players only remember the point of the crash." Chen Xu also sighed with emotion. Sighed.
"." Who makes the tragedy more impressive? " Ruan Xue next to him said with a smile.
Compared with the perfect ending of a family carnival, a tragedy with obvious regrets must be remembered by people.
"By the way, Mr. Chen, a batch of development prototypes has been sent from Midstream VR. The new VR is going to be launched?" Qin Yi thought of something and said to Chen Xu.
Chen Xu didn't speak here, but Yang Xin next to him spoke up.
"Brother Qin, your news is too late. The midstream VR has been officially announced." Yang Xin rolled his eyes and said.
In the next era of VR, Midstream Group has held a global press conference and announced the latest hardware configuration and price.
It will be launched in the fourth quarter, which is more than half a year later.
"Then we are on the platform's midstream group?" Qin Yi was stunned.
"Does it need to be said? It must be something without a doubt (Wang Li's)." Chen Xu said as a matter of course.
Although it is impossible for its new games to be exclusive to the midstream VR side.
But the platform is still fine.
For example, to cooperate with the new products of midstream VR, launch the game.
There are also so-called linkages, naming and so on.
Of course, the midstream VR side also gave Nebula a lot of money, as well as technical support for game development.
"Mr. Chen, what type of new work will we be? Open world or what?" Yang Xin asked curiously.
After all, this is the signature of their Nebula game.
"It's not a pure open world, you'll know it when the time comes."
"But before that, you should confirm your passport first, and then communicate with the administration department to prepare the materials to apply for a Schengen visa." Chen Xu said with a smile.
Chapter 348 Assassin series, feel the weight of history
Listening to Chen Xu's words, everyone was dumbfounded.
Schengen visa?
They do know that.
But the point is where is this going?
France, Germany, Italy or what?
"The background of the game will be Italian Renaissance, a story about assassins."
"But the real core is the history, which is completely different from Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto, so we need to restore those familiar buildings to reality."
Seeing some confused people, Chen Xu explained with a smile.
At the beginning, when the development of "Grand Theft Auto", the entire team actually went to Los Angeles for the actual assessment.
And now this game needs more attention than "Grand Theft Auto".
"Assassin's Creed".
Or more accurately, the Ezio trilogy.
This is the new work that Chen Xu is preparing to develop in preparation for the arrival of the next era of VR.
In the previous life, "Assassin's Creed" is also a large IP in the order of tens of millions.
Especially the picture of the classic white trench coat and hood leaping from a high point of faith, it was once the zero in the CG of "Cavalry on the Dragon's Back", and became the "facade" of a domestic web game company.
However, compared to other 650IP games in the order of tens of millions.
The story of the assassin is also quite tortuous, from the much-anticipated release at the beginning to the Waterloo of the Great Revolution.
Although a lot of content repairs have been carried out in the follow-up, the Great Revolution itself has become better, but the "notoriety" has also spread.
This also made many passers-by players mention the most **** work of "Assassin's Creed", and they couldn't help but say: The Great Revolution.
Although it is wrong, it can be imagined how much the failure of the Great Revolution has brought the assassin series.
Even the later introductions of Mutiny and Heroism were mixed.
In this case, a series of great reforms appeared.
From the rise of Origin, the heyday of Odyssey, to the glory of Valhalla.
The Mythic Trilogy opens a whole new chapter in the Assassin franchise.
It also makes the protagonist of the "Assassin's Creed" series no longer limited to assassins.
In the past, many players jokingly ridiculed "Assassin's Creed" as Berserker's Creed, mainly because of the gameplay and plot in the game, and more of it was just a joke.
And when it comes to the mythology trilogy, that's exactly what it does.
Bayek of 'a perfect wife and children' conducts a test, Kassandra of 'Sister and Brother Harmony' turns into a mercenary, Aivor of 'Master of Stealth' picks up two Xuanhua flat axes, and my Viking warriors will cut them All over Northern Europe!
If the original "Assassin's Creed" is closer to the action gameplay of the Hakoniwa thread, then the mythical trilogy is a pure open world RPG gameplay.
This practice of abandoning everything in the past has also made many old Assassin players express that they cannot accept it.
Of course, aside from the identity of Assassin's Creed, it doesn't matter whether Assassin should be an RPG or an action-adventure.
One thing is that the old assassin series and the new assassin series both agree.
That is whether the protagonist is an assassin or not, it doesn't matter.
Because the important thing in the assassin series itself is the creed, not the identity of the assassin.
Long before the Mythic Trilogy, and even before the Great Revolution, the work that broke the reputation of the Assassin series, appeared.
Ayu has already tried not to limit the protagonist to the identity of an assassin.
The father of the three-generation protagonist Connor: Haiersen Kenway, is the earliest trial of the game.
Helson Kenway's father, Edward Kenway, the protagonist in Black Flag, was a pirate, but also an assassin.
Likewise Haysen Kenway, his son was an Indian warrior and an assassin.
But he himself is the Templar Knight, the recognized enemy of the Assassin, and even finally staged a wave of "touching" father and son filial piety.
From here, it is just a test of the character background that is closely related to the protagonist.
Later, Shay Cormac became the first Templar protagonist for the first time.
And he is also the protagonist who betrayed from the Assassin camp to the Templar camp.
His presence broke an inherent law.
That is, the Assassins must be the righteous side, and the Templars must be the evil side.
(bibf) This is especially evident in Odyssey, Origins, and Valhalla.
The opposition between Assassins and Templars gradually blurred, replaced by Creed.
The Assassins had the Assassins' creed, and the Templars had theirs too.
Of course, the mythology trilogy also has a considerable flaw, that is, after becoming an open world, plus Ayu's own canned style.
Make the portrayal of the protagonist in the game close to nothing.
For players, they are more impressed by the protagonist of the old assassin series.
