Game production: I really have landed

Chapter 243 Moba is dead?

Once DOTA Auto Chess was launched, it quickly completed the binding with DOTA3's own client, and began to spread all over the place.

With the advantage of DOTA3's super-high global installed capacity, a large number of cloud players who did not want to download a tens of gigabytes of Genting Game client at first thought it was troublesome, but chose to watch the live broadcast every day to pass the time. The client also began to have the mode of auto chess.

Overjoyed, he also quickly started to play the game.

Because of the blessing of DOTA's own familiarity, the understanding of all the chess pieces in the game is naturally very fast.

Looking at those chess pieces that brought them infinite memories in the 5v5 mode, a new vitality bloomed on the auto chess board.

Experience the various races and fetters in the game.

The three goblins composed of Clockwork, Timbersaw, and Tinker can provide random allies with a living armor buff of +10 armor and 20 life regeneration.

The three dragons composed of dragon knights, fairy dragons, and underworld dragons can make all dragon chess pieces full of blue at the beginning.

The two orcs composed of Axe and Juggernaut can add one hundred maximum HP to all the chess pieces in the field.

Some anchors who used to rely on DOTA to become popular, later became deformed due to age, and gradually lost popularity.

But the birth of DOTA Auto Chess undoubtedly gave these people a second spring.

What's more, the Auto Chess mode that is bound to DOTA's own client side, on the contrary, has begun to make this game that has gradually fallen into a trend of rising popularity again.

The influence brought by DOTA Auto Chess is so great, in addition to the major game media scrambling to report, it naturally also ushered in a controversy.

The main controversy still comes from "Game of Genting" developed by Chuxin.

After all, this is the originator of the entire auto chess game.

"Don't jump the knife dog, your auto chess is a pure copy of Genting Game, and the bond of the three/six goblins is exactly the same as that of the nobles.

There are also so-called orcs, isn't this a fighter?Is this kind of game too embarrassing to play it? "

"Chao Nima, when the DOTA game came out, Luo Bai hadn't even started making games yet.

What's more, Luo Bai himself admitted that the reason why he made the Genting game was because he wanted to make a MOBA when he was playing DOTA.

Who is the father and who is the son?Didn't understand? "

"Who invented the game of auto chess? Daogou really has a face, it's really disgusting."

"Isn't League of Legends a pure copy of DOTA? Oh, this game is not popular at all, no one plays it at all, then it's okay, Le."

"Dota Auto Chess is indeed much better than Genting Game. Your rising star is simply a layer of skin on the surface of your body. Our rising star is directly covered with skin. Let's not talk about being handsome."

"I also played the game League of Legends. It's too simple. It's a pure numerical game without any tactical arrangements. My evaluation is not as good as DOTA."

"How long has it been since a game has been online, do you dare to draw such a conclusion? I think it's quite fun."

"A moba game that just came out was compared with your master by your swordsmen. Although I don't play League of Legends, I think this game is quite awesome, hahaha."

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

They are also games under the category of auto chess.

The more people playing Genting Chess, the fewer people will play DOTA Auto Chess, and vice versa.

The emergence of DOTA Auto Chess has really affected the current daily activities of Genting Game.

For the current players of Genting Game, the most intuitive impact is that the game that used to be able to start in seconds by pressing the rank now needs to wait for more than ten seconds.

Don't underestimate the ten or so seconds, this means that players under the category of auto chess have already been shunted away a large part.

"Making Wedding Dresses for Others?Game of Genting or will it fail? "

Does "Dota Auto Chess constitute plagiarism of Genting Game?" "

"Crime of Non-war: Game of Genting Wronged to Lose!" "

It can be seen that the agent of DOTA's own national server also attaches great importance to the project of DOTA Auto Chess.

During this month, various activities have been going on non-stop, and there is a tendency to use DOTA Auto Chess as a flagship product for publicity.

On the contrary, Chuxin didn't have much movement about Genting Game.

Every day is to fix bugs and make balance adjustments.

The biggest move is to launch the preview of the second season of Galaxy Wars.

All chess pieces, equipment, and fetters have undergone drastic changes, and there is a new mechanism called "Little Galaxy".

While the Genting players were looking forward to the new season, they also began to ask Mr. Luo to think of a way under the relevant comment section of Luo Bai and Chuxin.

However, until now, there has been no response from Chuxin.

The original intention of "laying flat" undoubtedly disappointed countless game media.

Although DOTA is powerful, as one of the most influential games in the world, it is the benchmark of moba games.

It has an absolute advantage in this competition.

But Game of Genting is not made of mud, is it?

As the current No.1 domestic game, the pioneer of the game type of auto chess, Mr. Luo, who was originally aspiring, is undoubtedly standing on the altar now.

As long as there is a little guidance, you will definitely be able to touch DOTA head-on.

Why are you avoiding the fight?This is not in line with Mr. Luo's usual character.

At that time, Chuxin headquarters.

"How can this be called plagiarism? At most it is a reference.

Originally, when I was getting ready to be Genting, I already thought that there would definitely be similar games on the market.

When we were doing Dark Souls and Ori before, we also thought that there would be imitators. "

Faced with Xiao Weirui's proposal to compete for the market in terms of copyright, Luo Bai rejected it without hesitation.

This made Xiao Weirui a little angry and helpless.

Game of Thrones includes the development of League of Legends, which takes up a considerable part of the resources of the original intention.

At that time, Xiao Weirui had high hopes for this project, thinking that this would be a solid step for Chuxin in the online game market.

And the few months that Genting Game has just been launched, it also supports Xiao Weirui's opinion.

Just in the first season, in a little over three months, it brought Chuxin a super high profit of close to one billion.

But now, in her eyes, a game that is a shameless plagiarism aimed at Game of Thrones has seized the market that originally belonged to Genting. How can she not be impatient?
Seeing the state of his chief butler, Luo Bai could only comfort him with a smile:
"Brother Rui, don't be like this, it's normal for popularity to fluctuate for a while.

Now it happens that the first season is coming to an end, and the routines that should be developed have basically been developed.

In this case, it is normal for players to experience DOTA Auto Chess with the idea of ​​early adopters. "

"However, the potential of DOTA Auto Chess is undoubtedly huge. Backed by DOTA itself, the potential is even greater than that of Genting Games."

Xiao Weirui calmed down her emotions, and told the truth ruthlessly.

"Then what should we do? DOTA has tens of millions of players worldwide, and its own MOBA game is also very suitable to be adapted into an auto chess game.

If you really want to fight, how can you compete with them for the player's favor? "

Luo Bai spread out his hands, looking helpless.

Although the popularity of DOTA is declining year by year, more and more old players are gradually disappointed with this game, and new players will basically never try this game again.

Some people even shouted that moba is dead, but there is no strong enough successor.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. At present, the DOTA3 International Invitational Tournament is still one of the online game events with the highest prize money and the highest attention in the world.

Originally, Xiao Weirui was a little anxious, otherwise he wouldn't have wanted to start from the copyright aspect to win the war for players.

No way, this time the opponent is too strong.

As Luo Bai said, when you were Ori, Black Soul, and the two of you, how did you think about the protection of the gameplay?

It is because of enough self-confidence that under this genre, Chuxin's game, as the originator of the mountain, has no opponents.

All latecomers can only be on par with it, and will never be able to surpass it.

But now, looking at Luo Bai who is not in a hurry, Xiao Weirui asked doubtfully:

"Do you have a solution?"

Having also worked in Chuxin for such a long time, Xiao Weirui knew little about this industry from the beginning, and has become a real industry giant now.

The more you know, the more you understand how difficult this battle is.

The most simple and direct way is to rely on the higher-level forces to directly reduce the dimension and strike the peers to death.

"Let me ask you, what is the biggest advantage of DOTA Auto Chess?"

Luo Bai asked.

Xiao Weirui was a little impatient:

"Didn't you say it all? Back to DOTA."

"We also have League of Legends."

"Don't make trouble, do you really have a way to let the League of Legends eat a piece of meat on DOTA?"

Xiao Weirui obviously didn't believe it.

"No way, where is the way?

More than ten years of feelings have already made DOTA a golden body, a moba game that has just started, wants to face the current DOTA head-on head-on, purely courting death. "

Luo Bai shook his head, then said with a smile,
"It's just that I don't agree with the saying that MOBA is dead on the market. I just think that this game type still has great potential to be tapped."

When on Earth, Riot released League of Legends in 09, with a history of more than ten years.

League of Legends has its ups and downs, and at one point some people shouted that moba is dead.

This kind of argument, after the game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds came out, was once pushed to the forefront.

Everyone seems to agree that battle royale games will replace League of Legends and become the next phenomenon-level online game that leads the era.

The results of it?Phenomenal online games are indeed phenomenal online games, but leading an era is not necessarily the case.

Later, only the most valuable gameplay of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds remained, and it began to be integrated by various games, blooming a new vitality.

But by itself, it is no longer enough to be called a popular game.

The League of Legends is still there.

Maybe the people who play this game have grown up and don't have time to play like crazy day and night when they were young.

But that game is always there.

Compared with DOTA, League of Legends has a lower threshold, a faster pace, and a picture that is more in line with the aesthetics of most Chinese players.

Of course, in the eyes of many people, these advantages may actually be disadvantages.

"I think we can make a fuss about League of Legends, but it doesn't necessarily mean competing with DOTA for player groups.

What can't be grabbed, DOTA's high entry threshold and such a long time of operation mean that the loyalty of old players to this game has broken through the sky.

There are rumors outside that DOTA and League of Legends are rivals, but in my opinion, that is not the case. The target groups of the two sides are completely different.

Our target is those players who want to get in touch with moba games, but don't want to play DOTA.

However, it is not realistic to let them play League of Legends directly, and they have to find some tricks. "

Luo Bai blinked and briefly explained his opinion.

"How big is this player group?"

Xiao Weirui asked.

"I don't know, anyway, it's enough to divert the traffic to Yunding in the end, so that the project doesn't lose money."

Luo Bai opened his arms, looking indifferent.

Originally, Luo Bai didn't want the League of Legends to gain much popularity in Blue Star.

He just wanted to find some opponents for himself when he played Genting.

However, Genting may not be able to make ends meet now, and it still needs to find a way to attract traffic.

Just don't lose money...

Xiao Weirui let out a long sigh.

This guy always does.

Making money is never the first priority in any game. For him, as long as he doesn't lose money, even if he doesn't make money at all, he can accept it.

The same is true for the online game Genting Game.

War order upgrades and card pools, which are already very mature systems operating in domestic online games, have to be added by themselves.

It is to increase the probability of the card pool, and to reduce the money spent on drawing cards.

Don't you know that if you do this, the items in the card pool will not be rare enough?How can local tyrants use this thing to pretend?The degree of differentiation that everyone uses the rarest outfit?

But this guy is still plausible.

As long as there are enough dresses, are you afraid that there will be no distinction?

In fact, players who are willing to spend money really don't care about those three melons and two dates.

Wouldn't it be enough to design ten companies according to the normal 648 standard of online games?

After slandering in his heart for a long time, Xiao Weirui also knew that he couldn't change the mind of this talented man in front of him, so he just asked:

"Then what is the off-the-market trick you are talking about?"

"The League of Legends universe."

"What it is?"

"On a continent named Valoran, the love and hatred of those heroes in the endless years of change.

But it’s obviously not realistic to do it all at once, I plan to put some CG out to test the water...

Why don't you get "The Battle of Two Cities" out first?That thing is absolutely explosive. "

"What is the Battle of the Two Cities?"

Xiao Weirui interrupted Luo Bai's imagination.

"It takes at least a year to make a cartoon. Damn, there are more and more things."
