The sea dog made some feudal and superstitious remarks that Wang Guowei didn’t know how to pick up.
I even regretted finding him.
Fortunately, the sea dog vented a few words and did not continue to pester. Instead, he asked Li Yu, "Please tell me more about your needs."
"Well, the background of the game is similar to the Middle Ages, with some fantasy elements added."
"Similar to Ice and Fire, or Lord of the Rings?"
"Ice and fire, but there are various kinds of orcs. Well, their appearance is very similar to humans. They have multiple ears and so on... and their life span can be three times that of humans."
"Beast Ear Girl? If you want to make a two-dimensional game, the art resources must keep up." Sea Dog became a little more interested, rubbed his hands and said, "Selling meat is good, selling meat is the right way in the world, but now the approval process is getting more and more
It’s serious, I thought it would not be easy to go through the trial.”
"It's not two-dimensional, it's a realistic style. The biggest feature of the game is reality."
After hearing what Li Yu said, the sea dog burst into laughter.
"What, is there really any problem?" Wang Guowei on the side was puzzled.
"Nine out of ten games that advertise authenticity will die suddenly. Successful games like Tarkov are just an example and have no reference value."
Sea Dog said, "In the final analysis, hardcore is just something that a very small group of players talk about. Most people just play games to have fun. The reality is bad enough, who is willing to experience it again in the game.
"
"It makes sense." Wang Guowei nodded repeatedly.
"But you are the boss, you have the final say, I just provide some suggestions." The sea dog picked up a piece of barbecued pork.
Li Yu continued, "Then a time traveler came to that world and established a church."
"Simulation business game? But it is rare to establish a church. Players play the role of the time traveler, right..."
"Not."
"No? Then what role does the player play?"
"Indigenous."
Sea Dog was startled, "Wait a minute, let me clarify. You said you plan to make a game. There is a time traveler in the game, but it has nothing to do with the player. The player is not playing the role of a time traveler, but an indigenous person?"
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www.yeguoyuedu.com to install the latest version.]
"That's right."
"This is quite strange." Sea Dog regained some energy and touched his chin, "Traditional Western fantasy RPG game, but with... elements of time travel added. Why have I never thought of this angle? As an ordinary person
Villagers, do you feel the changes brought about by the time travellers?
"But why the church? It would be more popular if it was changed to the kingdom. That is the template for standard farming articles, and the market acceptance should be higher."
"Because I want to do something different, a subject that no one has done before." Li Yu said.
“One of the mistakes that novice producers often make is to innovate blindly,” Haigou continued to comment, “In fact, most projects in the industry are copied by you and me, and I copy you, and at most make some slight adjustments. This is because capital prefers those who can bring in
Projects with stable returns.
"Investors all hope that the money they invest can be recovered. If you say you want to make an open world and what style you want, these investors don't actually care. But if you say you want to benchmark Genshin Impact, then investors will
I understand, and I will invest my money in you, because Genshin Impact is very popular and has proven that this model can be successful.
"Whether it can be copied or not is another matter. At least the money has been obtained.
"So sometimes it doesn't mean that producers or planners just want to follow the trend and rush to make a certain type of competing products. The main reason is that if you want to do something else, especially something new and innovative, it is difficult to get money. When setting up a project
He was killed... In the end, he had to come back and hold his nose and continue copying."
The sea dog sighed, looking a little complicated.
Li Yu did not interrupt his emotion. He did not speak again until he finished speaking, "Don't worry about profitability. Our game is custom-made. It is just to meet some personal needs and will not flow to the public."
market."
"Is that so?" Sea Dog was a little surprised, but didn't say anything else.
Rich people have many hobbies these days. A certain wealthy man named Ma even invited all the kung fu actors to make a movie together to fulfill his martial arts dream.
It's okay if someone wants to make a game and play it themselves.
So Haigou stopped helping Li Yu with market analysis and began to seriously discuss the upgrade curve and rewards with him.
Especially in terms of rewards, Sea Dog focused on asking Li Yu more about the world background and the settings related to the time traveler.
Sea Dog has been planning for so many years, and he considers himself to be a relatively quick thinker, and he can come up with something quickly. However, compared with Li Yu, he can only be defeated.
The two were obviously talking about fictional settings, and Li Yu didn't prepare any information documents in advance, but he answered all questions without hesitation, and even Sea Dog deliberately asked some very detailed questions.
Li Yu almost always answered in seconds. At first, Hai Gou thought Li Yu was just making random nonsense, but as he asked more and more questions, Hai Gou discovered something that made his scalp numb.
That is, all of Li Yu's answers do not have any logical conflicts. Instead, they can corroborate each other and are linked together.
This guy...did he write hundreds of thousands of words of background settings? It covers all aspects of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and even the local customs. It must be such a big project.
As a literary planner, no one knows the difficulty better than Sea Dog.
And all of this is actually just a game that will never be released on the market, which makes the sea dog even more shocked and even awe-inspiring.
Sea Dog used a voice recorder to record everything Li Yu said, and then said seriously, "Give me five days, and I will prepare the first version of the upgrade system for you. If you have any questions in the future, you can give me feedback."
, I will modify it for you again, and I guarantee that it will be modified to your satisfaction."
"That'll be troublesome." Li Yu was also very happy and paid 3,000 yuan as a deposit.
Sea Dog paused and asked Li Yu, "Can I play the game after it's finished? I always felt that there was no need to focus too much on authenticity when making games, but the world you described really aroused my interest.
interest."
"Brother Gou, even if you say it so seriously, you just want to see the beast-eared girl in it." Wang Guowei complained.
"..." Sea Dog's face turned red when he was told something important.
But then I heard Li Yu say, "I'm afraid not, this game is not open to the public."
"That's such a pity." Sea Dog was slightly disappointed.
After the three of them finished eating, Haigou and Li Yu added each other on WeChat and then went back to work. Wang Guowei was left curious and asked Li Yu.
"Aren't you in a management consulting company? Why did you suddenly start making games again? And why don't you seriously recruit a planner? Come to Sea Dog."
"You didn't recommend Sea Dog to me. Is there anything wrong with him?" Li Yu frowned.
"There is no problem in terms of ability, but now that I think about it, what he said may make sense. There are people who can't do it. Brother Gou is a bad guy at projects. All the projects he participated in ended up being useless."
"Don't worry about this, I'm sure it won't be pornographic this time." Li Yu affirmed.
