MTL - I Develop Battlefield To Drive Global Players Crazy-Chapter 187
In the film circle in recent years, they have not had a good time with Nahua, and a 'Journey to the West' is an unexpected gain.
But they also have a huge treasure, that is, their various classic film and television copyrights.
......00
Today, the global game market has already surpassed the movie market by three times.
And every year, this percentage keeps increasing.
If the 'Journey to the West' works successfully, then Nahua opens a new track.
Originally, Nahua was thinking of rare goods to live in. If you don’t buy it, someone will always come.
But now, a crucial step has apparently been interrupted.
A roadblock suddenly appeared on the way forward.
SIGA itself is one of the world's well-known game manufacturers, but now it is so determined, so other game manufacturers do not need to contact most of them.
What about a Nebula game?
Obviously we came first, whether it's movies, games, or promoting Western themes.
Why did it become like this? Western movies sold for the first time, reached the global box office list for the first time, and had the opportunity to get involved in the game industry.
It was supposed to be two happy things overlapping, and the two happiness brought more happiness.
What I got was supposed to be happy like a dream, but why did it become like this?
Looking at the back of SIGA's departure, Kevin sitting in the chair became more and more puzzled, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.
Then he showed a firm expression and made a decision.
"SIGA is unwilling to cooperate, so look for another one! Directly acquire a powerful game manufacturer, we will do it ourselves!" Kevin decided.
In itself, this is the strategic goal of the Nahua Group. Since it is difficult to find a partner, it will just start by itself.
Without Butcher Zhang, do they really think they can only eat pigs with fur?
The mountain will fall, and the water will flow. The Nahua Group can only rely on themselves to enter the game industry! people.
Chapter 265 Arthur Morgan
In the field of film and television, the influence of "Journey to the West" is still spreading.
Mainly because of the film's sequel, the announcement of the shooting plan and start-up time, and the fact that similar Western-themed films were also followed suit, which greatly increased the popularity.
However, in the field of games, the opposite of the film and television industry, that is, the focus of players' attention, all went to Nebula Games.
Compared with the 'Journey to the West' without a single word, many people are more interested in Chen Xu's new game.
Even the development progress, type, and even the name of the game are unknown.
But it is a western theme, which is enough for them to look forward to.
And it's not just the game, including the news of the award ceremony was also revealed.
"Six Zero Zero" SIGA and AE games, including domestic big goose games, etc., also participated in this sponsorship.
Of course, this is just a name, and will not affect the relevant fairness and justice.
After such news broke out, although there was no specific shadow, it also made the players cheer.
'Fuck, this is the Oscar for the gaming industry? ’
'Hopefully, it doesn't end up as garbage like those garbage game awards. ’
‘Trust the old thief! This time, it seems that Nebula Games took the lead in doing it. With the temper of an old thief and the past, he will definitely not do these things. ’
‘Actually, to evaluate whether this award is fair or not, let’s see if the game of the year is the old thief’s game. ’
'Okay, okay! The fox's tail leaked out, didn't it? Be both a referee and a player! (dog head saves life)’
'But I have to say one thing, I feel that the old thief is completely killing it! Take a look at the games released by the old thief in the past, Battlefield, French Ring, Modern Warfare, Monster Hunt, Dark Souls, Grand Theft Auto, Zelda and Mario, etc. Which of these games is not a blast in a blast? ? ’
'OK! This old thief has no martial arts skills, but there is no more authoritative martial arts conference, so in order to become the leader of the martial arts alliance, he held a special conference! ’
Players have heated discussions, and the industry is also happy to see this happen.
The media and peer manufacturers have a unified idea on this matter.
That is: good things.
For the media, there is an authoritative award, and in the end, it is judged by the comprehensive score of the media and players, which undoubtedly symbolizes traffic.
And if this awards event becomes the Oscars of the game circle, then the authority and popularity of these media will obviously be on a higher level.
Also for game makers, this is also a good direction for publicity.
Although the Nebula game is awesome, it is still the same sentence, no matter how awesome the Nebula game is, it can't dominate 365 days a year.
FPS, ACT, RPG, ARP... From different types, they are differentiated into different themes, and even platforms.
It is impossible for Nebula games to include everything in Niubi.
Coupled with today's Nebula Games, its position in the industry does have the qualification to lead an exhibition event of this level.
…
And while everyone is still discussing this award ceremony led by Nebula Games, as well as its new work.
A heavy news also broke out.
Nahua Group invested 1.18 billion US dollars in the "Naga" studio, becoming its largest shareholder to enter the game industry.
This is a game developer affiliated to Swiss.
Although the popularity is not as good as that of the top first-tier game manufacturers, there are also many classic games under its banner.
Also, after Nahua announced its investment in Naga the morning before, the follow-up strategic plan was officially announced in the afternoon.
The first step will be gamification. The previous masterpiece "Journey to the West" will later adapt many classic IPs of Nahua Group into games one by one.
Once the news was disclosed, it also stimulated the market value of Nahua. After the opening, the number was almost green.
However, for players in the game circle, as well as major manufacturers, the expressions are very strange.
Nahua, head iron!
Dare to rush up!
'Fuck! Nahua is really iron! ’
‘Haha, here comes another brother who dares to fight with Nebula Games! ’
‘The previous AE games and SIGA have been silent! ’
'It feels like Nebula Games is like a big devil! ’
'No way, this is a real record. Games like "Dark Soul: The Age of First Fire" actually didn't have much impact when they were launched. For works like The Legend of Erda: Breath of the Wild and Grand Theft Auto, you can't even cry! ’
'Fuck! Hurry up and watch Chen Xu's official blog! We have to thank Nahua! Is this old thief feeling the pressure? New stuff again! ’
‘Vanderlinde Gang? Group like drama? Or multiple protagonists like Grand Theft Auto? ’
While the players were discussing, someone suddenly discovered that Nebula Games and Chen Xu's official blog had updated content again!
And this time, compared to revealing the theme and background of the times before, it directly revealed the main characters and characters!
There are two original drawings in total...
The first is a tall, burly cowboy with pale blond hair and beard, crystal blue eyes and a black gambler's hat.
Wearing a blue shirt, an old yellow coat, black trousers and boots, with his backpack hanging around his waist, he is not handsome but very manly.
At the same time as 1.5, there is a line of subtitle introduction below: Arthur Morgan, one of the early members of the Van der Linde Gang, the strongest sharpshooter in the West.
The second picture shows two middle-aged men, also wearing black gambler hats, one of them is wearing a black jacket, holding a burning cigar in his hand.
The other is older, with visible white hair, a blue shirt under a black jacket, black gloves and a shotgun.
At the same time, there are two introductions below:
Dutch Van der Linde: Founder of the Van der Linde Gang, a leader with a unique charisma
Hosea Mathews: The founding father of the Van der Linde Gang, a master deception master, gentleman and gang strategist.
Chapter two hundred and sixty-six seems to be tauren; the advantage is in me! Greetings, President!
"Arthur Morgan! Is this the protagonist of the new game? The number one sharpshooter in the West, so handsome!"
"But it's still a bad guy game? Like Grand Theft Auto and Payday?"
"It does look like that, the Van der Linde gang should be the name of a gang, and there were a lot of gangs in the West at that time."
"Yes, even because of the lack of police force, the sheriffs in various towns can only issue bounty orders to let bounty hunters help them catch criminals."
"So it's going to be a multi-protagonist setting like Grand Theft Auto? From Arthur Morgan, to Dutch and Hosea, with different switching between the three characters?"
"I don't think so, because from the original poster, Arthur Morgan is clearly listed as the C-position, and the two characters, Dutch and Hosea, are in one poster. ."
"Yes, the old thief should have hinted to us in this way!"
The simple two original paintings immediately mobilized the emotions of the players18.
From the background of the era to the content revealed in the original painting and introduction, players have turned on Sherlock Holmes's detective mode.
But let's not say, what these players guessed is really accurate.
There are mistakes, but there are also many guesses that are correct.
Of course, in the face of various speculations from players, Chen Xu will definitely not take the initiative to announce it.
At this time, Chen Xu was explaining the plot to the actor who played Arthur Morgan.
"Pay attention to the emotions, not to show real ferocity, but to have a transition in the middle."
"For Arthur, he is unwilling to do things like debt collection, but every time he goes to collect debts for the sake of the gang, he pretends to be fierce, but he is not a really cold and ruthless villain. ."
"And the plot of this section is to be refilled. For Arthur, the gang is always his most important thing, and Dutch is equivalent to his father in Arthur's mind."
"He will be disappointed, angry, hopeless, but not resentful."
In addition to the staff, there are several translators on site to ensure that the requirements and meanings can be accurately conveyed.
. And the actors involved in the roles of "Red Dead Redemption" are not unknown.
For example, Arthur Morgan's starring has appeared in many Westerns before, and most of the roles he plays are the template of both good and evil, which can be said to be more suitable for the role.
Including the previous Nahua Group, it also said that it would invite the other party to participate in the sequel of "Journey to the West", but it was not negotiated in the end due to contract reasons.
It can be said that a professional actor, with the mature technology of motion capture and facial expression capture, can definitely make the characters in the game more vivid.
Especially the realistic style of "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption".
In the attention of global players, Chen Xu has successively announced some tidbits in the development process during this time.
Such as the scene where the actor is performing the role of the game.
For players, this is good news.
Because it can be clearly felt that the progress of the game is being developed in an orderly manner.
In this way, they can also play the expected game as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Kevin, who had just acquired Naga, looked at the news of Nebula Games on the Internet and was angry.
OK! OK!
Not to mention the popularity of their western themes!
Even the actors are going to be robbed, although they are actors they have not negotiated.
But for some reason, Kevin just felt as if there was a green grassland growing above his head.
Not a tauren but better than a tauren!
"This game with Nebula Games will be launched on the same schedule, and then have the confidence to beat them!" Kevin took a deep breath and looked at the person in charge of Naga sitting in front of him.
Luis, the CEO of Naga and the producer of the game department, shook his head decisively.
"From the perspective of progress, the development of Nebula Games is very fast, even if we expand our manpower, it is difficult to catch up. Moreover, Nebula Games is the world's top game developer, and their technology is unquestionable, especially its BOSS and designer. Chen Xu is a talented designer, and he is likely to be behind the line in the same period and still has the same theme, I don't think this is a good idea."
"On the contrary, if we fall behind by half a year and let the western theme led by Nebula Games pass, we are going online at this time, which may attract many players who are interested in western theme games."
Kevin: ? ? ? ? ? ?
As if feeling that he heard it wrong, Kevin looked at Louis with a stunned expression.
