Let you make games, you directly shoot blockbusters?.

Chapter 219 Quality VS Flow
[After getting enough money, we can find a place where no one knows us, so we don't have to hide from XZ anymore. 】

On the silent stage.

A deep voice resounded.

【boom--】

With a gunshot, the screen on the big screen suddenly moved.

Seven or eight cowboys are riding horses and running on the mountains, forests and grasslands, and the wonderful game scenes flash back one after another.

Snow mountain, gun battle, train, escape, fishing, western farm.
Accompanied by the brisk and somewhat bleak whistle ditty, it reverberated throughout the venue.

Seeing this familiar scene, the players cheered louder than ever before.

Red Dead Redemption!
The final highlight is indeed this game!

The audience stood up excitedly, their eyes fixed on the big screen and the stage, and the cheers lasted for more than a minute before gradually subsiding.

Lao Song came to the stage slowly with a smile on his face.

"Speaking of the history of the prehistoric development, of course this game is indispensable, and it is also our latest masterpiece, "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption."

"To tell you the truth, when I first received this game plan, I was very shocked, not because of its production requirements, nor because of the grandeur of the open world, but because of the last two words, redemption."

"Yes." Lao Li also stepped forward.

"You may think that this is purely an open world game, but I can say with great responsibility that this is not a game, but a life and a journey."

"It is precisely because of this that we pursue perfection and make it the ultimate, and have consumed more than 25 billion funds to make it what we want."

"In the end we succeeded and successfully brought this game to everyone."

and many more.

25! ?

Suddenly, the audience noticed a very crucial message.

The cost of this game actually exceeded 25 billion!
In an instant, the entire venue and the major live broadcast rooms were in an uproar.

They don't understand what the previous words mean, but they know what the concept of 25 billion is.

This is almost enough to make four or five 3A masterpieces!
Hong Huang actually invested all in one game!
"No wonder, no wonder the quality of the first two chapters is so terrifying."

"25 billion, this is too exaggerated!"

"How dare they? Are they not afraid of losing money?"

"I finally know why other companies can't match my big cousin in terms of quality. This fucking is so arrogant!"

"Even big companies don't dare to invest so much money in a game, do they?"

Not to mention the players, even the major manufacturers were shocked by this offer.

The 25 billion capital is not something that any manufacturer can take out casually.

Even if Hong Huang had the income from those games plus movies and animations, I am afraid it would be a pain in the neck.

If this game can't pay back, wouldn't it be pushing yourself into the fire pit?

You must know that the pre-sale version of this game is so popular, and it has only sold more than 900 million copies so far. Even if all these players buy the full version, they are just getting back their money.

How courageous it is to dare to do this!

Are they so confident that they can sell more than ten million copies?
"Idiot, to invest so much money in one game, don't you know that there are only more than 20 games with tens of millions of sales? How can it be so easy?"

In the Juhard branch, Carter, who had just rushed back, also received the news and sneered disdainfully.

Even if it is their annual monopoly, with the promotion of the entire platform resources, they dare not guarantee that the ticket will exceed 800 million, and the estimate is only [-] million.

More than ten million sales.

Those are phenomenal games every year.

To spend such a large amount of manpower and cost to produce a game, even if it just pays off, the operating expenses incurred during the period will drag down the entire company.

Originally, he was a little worried that Honghuang's carnival would affect them, but now it seems that he is too concerned.

Hong Huang's introduction continued.

After talking about the production process of the game, Song and Li also introduced the content of the game.

"As you have seen in the pre-emptive version, the full version of "Red Dead Redemption" will directly launch all 8 chapters."

"In addition to the original gameplay, we have also added many details, such as hunting different prey requires different firearms, different furs can make different backpack clothing, and added hunting of legendary animals."

"Another example is the weather and temperature system, which will affect things like character clothing and food shelf life, frostbite slows down, food rots, etc."

Lao Song's voice was very clear, and every time he uttered a new content, the audience's eyes lit up a little bit.

They thought that the details of the pre-release version were already exaggerated enough, but they didn't expect the full version to be even more exaggerated, and it has actually been refined to the difference between food rot and prey.

Wait until Lao Song finishes speaking.

Lao Li on the side also stood up.

"In addition to these, we have also added a very important thing, honor value."

"All the good things the player does in Westworld will increase the honor value, and all the bad things the player will do will also deduct the honor value."

"The honor value is high enough, which means that the more you are respected in this world, you will get a discount when you enter the store, and even trigger some hidden events."

"If the honor value is lower than the warning line, it will also have different effects, as well as the overall story direction, and it will change the plot of the final finale. It is inconvenient to say more about the specific content, and I leave it to you to explore by yourself."

"To be a good person who does good and accumulate virtue, or to be a heinous villain, it's all in your mind."

At the end, he smiled mysteriously and made a fool of himself.

The audience, who were listening attentively, also became agitated and even a little moved.

My every move in the western world will actually affect the direction of the story, and even the finale will change accordingly.

It's simply beyond their understanding of the game.

Or.

This is the open world they imagined.

It's not just a game, it's a real world.

Honghuang is really using games to tell them what an open world is!
"Is this the big move that Hong Huang has been holding back?"

"It's amazing! If it can be realized, it will be a masterpiece!"

"No wonder they are not afraid that other manufacturers will copy the gameplay."

"Laughing to death, they won't be able to copy it if they put it there."

"The preemptive version is just a castrated version?"

There was a commotion inside and outside the arena. The pre-release version that has amazed countless people and even changed the entire industry structure is actually only a half-finished product!

Fortunately, the giant hard giant copied the semi-finished gameplay before, and was complacent there. Now it seems that they are just two clowns.

It's useless to copy it for you!
Do you not have the ability to know?
In terms of innovation, Honghuang has already surpassed many manufacturers by a few blocks, making them look forward to the full version even more.

that's it.

It took half an hour.

Lao Song and Lao Li finally finished introducing the prepared game content.

But when they announced that the launch date would be after the end of the month, the expressions of the excited players suddenly became weird.

Because Juhard's annual exclusive is also launched at the end of the month.

Even the games of Soni and Nintendo are estimated to be launched in those few days.

At that time, nearly a hundred games will be launched at the same time. Is Honghuang planning to be tough?
And in this weird atmosphere.

The entire carnival with the theme of the history of the prehistoric development is gradually coming to an end.

"This is the end of the prehistoric development history. It can be regarded as our summary of the past. I hope everyone likes this new year's gift, and I hope we can make better and better games in the future!"

Lao Song held the microphone and said with emotion.

Although it was only a short two hours, it has experienced the development of Honghuang from its establishment to the present, and it is a bit embarrassing in retrospect.

As for the last 10 minutes.

It was a question-and-answer session reserved for them.

"Hello, I want to ask, you just said better and better games, can you tell me a little bit about Honghuang's future production direction?"

Naturally, the media below would not miss this opportunity, and someone asked immediately.

As soon as this word comes out.

The players who were still immersed in the content of "Red Dead Redemption" also woke up one after another, stopped discussing and looked towards the stage.

Lao Song and Lao Li looked at each other and said with a smile: "Originally, this information should not be disclosed, but since it is the annual meeting, let's briefly talk about it."

"We have two main directions in the future. One is to produce more excellent works to fill the history of prehistoric development, and the other is to adapt to market changes and bring some new attempts."

"For example, more grand narratives, intelligent AI characters, and the development of new categories are all our future attempts."

The voice fell, and the scene fell into commotion again.

However, in recent times, there have been many manufacturers taking advantage of the AI ​​heat, so it did not cause much repercussions.

after that.

Other media and audience asked some more game-related content, and the 10-minute question-and-answer session ended smoothly.

In the New Year greetings of Lao Song, Lao Li, and a group of employees, Honghuang's first carnival finally came to an end.

The audience who left the venue rejoiced, and they ran to the stage to choose their favorite game peripherals as souvenirs, and the scene was lively.

The news of Honghuang's entire series of game updates also spread quickly after the live broadcast ended, sweeping through the entire game circle like a hurricane.

Especially those brand-new contents caused a big sensation on the Internet.

The annual meeting with Juhard became the hottest topic of discussion.

It even launched a very popular vote on the whole network.

#"Red Dead Redemption: Redemption" VS "Faith", who is the best in the open world? #
[1. Big cousin is number one in the world! 】

[2. Faith is the only one! 】

[3. Children only do multiple-choice questions, so I want them all! 】

I have to say that when it comes to tidying up, netizens are the best at doing it.

In just one day, the number of views of this poll exceeded one million, attracting a large number of players to eat melons.

However, what shocked everyone's jaws was.

In addition to the fact that "Red Dead Redemption" was far ahead in the first two hours, the number of votes for "Faith" was actually overtaken by a full 15%!

"What's going on? The number of votes for faith is so much higher?"

Ouyang Xiao, who was broadcasting live, frowned.

Although she has never played Faith, she has watched the live broadcast.

Even though that game was well done, she didn't think it could be as shocking as Red Dead Redemption, because it wasn't at the same level at all.

Even if a similar gameplay is added, the picture quality and plot performance ability will not be able to catch up at all.

"There is absolutely a problem with the number of votes!"

Eventually, she came to a conclusion.

The barrage in the live broadcast room also suddenly increased.

"There is indeed a problem."

"Even if there is a gap, it shouldn't be so big."

"Big? It's not right that Juhard's game surpasses big cousin."

"A fool can see it, and bought a ticket."

"It's just the means of capital operation, see more."

"Can this be tolerated? Brothers charged at him!"

With that said, the outraged audience immediately ran to vote, trying to bring back the votes.

As a result, just after the gap in the number of votes was reduced to 5%, the number of votes for "Faith" jumped again, and it was pulled back to more than 10%.

They wouldn't believe it if they said they didn't buy it.

"It's disgusting! Can buying traffic be more obvious?"

"If Hong Huang's sales can't keep up with Ju Hard by then, the game industry will really be doomed!"

Hong Huang made so many preparations and Ouyang Xiao noticed it.

It is no exaggeration to say that this battle between the prehistoric and the giant represents the war between the quality faction and the flow faction.

If the traffic faction headed by Juhard wins at that time, it will be the players' own choice, and this kind of market is not worth mentioning!
