Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 239: Not Warm (more)

After the launch of the new game, many media outlets kept up to date with the game My World.

"The latest information on Chen Weixin's game, called" My World ”"

"Chen Yu's First VR Game Full Exposure"

My World: Pixel-Style Block Play

"My world will go live with Thousand Prisons."

"Chen Jiao praises Thousand Prisons at New Game Press."

These press releases revealed essentially all of the details of the conference, including Chen Jiao's "My World" play, features, and some live videos.

Soon, the news spread in the player community, and players looking forward to Chen's new game reacted differently, but were somewhat surprised.

Chen Yu's first VR game is actually building blocks?

Players can basically understand the core fun of My World by studying these press releases carefully.

Essentially, this is a game in which “creation” is the core element, and, like Famine, the open world is the main selling point and supports more complex networking models.

But even the Hunger players are skeptical about the game.

Famine can be popular because it's a small game that can be played on both PCs and mobile phones and sells for only $20, very cheap.

However, My World is a VR game, which is generally expensive on the market today. Like Earth OL, the sale price is $399, and these VR games in the country are basically hovering between $1,000 and $2,000.

Like some domestic MMORPG games, the price on the VR platform is relatively low, selling 500 yuan, but basically there will be subsequent charges, such as selling game point cards, value-added services, etc. Otherwise, the price of the game itself will be difficult to recover.

Though VR games are played by some high-income groups, let them spend $1,000 on a building block game?

It's not that bad to have money, is it?

In the forum, players are discussing.

“What did Chen Jiao think, entering the critical period of the VR platform, actually made a building blocks of intellectual games? To be honest, I haven't really seen the VR platform's intelligence games make a lot of money. ”

“According to Chen Qiao, this game cannot simply be viewed as an intellectual game, but it is also a sandbox game, similar to Famine. ”

“But the core pleasure is creation! Besides, how many copies of" My World "can be sold at such a high price for VR games? Can you recover the cost? ”

“I think cost recovery is definitely fine, this game is pixel-style, a lot of it is built by itself, all the materials can be reused, how much R&D money can this cost? ”

“If it's a mobile phone or PC, it certainly won't cost much, but if you change the VR, there must still be some input, and you look at the game scenes on the video, the maps are very detailed, and it's estimated that there's a lot of money in the art, otherwise it's impossible to make the pixel style look so good. ”

“I think maybe a few million, up to 20 million. Hey, for Chan, it's raining furiously. ”

“On the basis of 20 million dollars, this is already very low for the R&D cost of VR games. Chen Jiao can take a thin, multi-selling approach, selling 200 yuan a game at that time, isn't it aesthetics? Who cares about the 200 bucks for players who can afford a VR game deck? ”

“Hey, that's not true. Will Chen Yu worry about not making money? Twenty million won't matter if he throws it away for nothing. Problem is, this is his first VR game, if it smashes, it's embarrassing! ”

“How ugly would it be if sales and revenues were crushed?" ”

“Hey, even if you get crushed, you can say that you are playing an intellectual game, there is no comparability. ”

“Look, I'm poor anyway, can't afford a VR game cabin, if this game is well done, I'll go to a VR internet cafe to support it...”

……

Soon, Thousand Jails and My World began to expose all sorts of details frequently. Although the two games didn't even mention each other's names in publicity, the gourd eaters could see that both games were secretly viewing each other as their competitors.

Especially "Thousand Prisons", various character original paintings, scene original paintings, skill effects, story background, game scenes are exposed, the accuracy of the images is extremely high, and the game is very refreshing, making the players look addicted.

At the forum, players' expectations of "Millennial Prison" continued to rise, and even the tested activation codes were fired to two or three thousand, higher than the sale price at the time of the official launch.

On the other hand, Chen Yu's side, it's a little unwarm.

On the official website of "My World", some basic information has been revealed a long time ago, but I did not deliberately do some very big publicity material, the only thing I could do was publish the CG video at the meeting.

The players' response to this CG video is also flat, because CG is the easiest thing to fake, lots of games, CG makes a mess, and the game scene isn't like that at all.

Besides, compared to Warcraft and Dark Destroyer's CG, My World's CG is like the graffiti of a kindergarten kid, it's just not appealing.

The players were also very confused.

There are many ways to promote the game, Chen Jiao, when promoting "My name is MT" self-animation, when promoting "Warcraft Competition" publish Alsace line draft, when promoting "The Herald of Wu Lin" write the martial arts song "Sword Like a Dream", when promoting "Yin Yang Master" publish "Extremely Happy Pure Land"...

How did you get to "My World"? Nothing?

Just publicize it, how many people will be watching this game until the launch date?

In the confusion of the crowd, Chen Qiao finally acted.

At noon this day, Chen Qiao releases a new tweet: "My World": Forbidden City. Note: All images in this video are game scenes. ”

The gourds are all cheeky. What the hell?

Forbidden City?

Did Chen Jiao stack the Forbidden City out of the building blocks in "My World"?

Players are turning on videos.

Although there have been many games before, creating some scenes in the game that exist in real life, they are made by professionals, and many have only one skin on the outside that looks good, but it doesn't really work.

But "My World" is a building block game. If even Forbidden City can be built, does that mean that players can play freely in Forbidden City?
