Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

"Uncharted" soon entered the intensive development stage.

However, as a VR game, just like the games developed by Chen Xu before, some adjustments need to be made regarding the camera lens.

The performance of some scenes can bring players a better sense of immersion through the first person, such as climbing and flying ropes, which are absolutely thrilling.

Moreover, the sober mode updated in the new era of the Universal VR game warehouse can also alleviate the negative emotions of players to a great extent, and better show the thrills of this action-adventure to the players.

In addition, when Nathan Drake escaped in the game, facing various explosions and the collapse of the ruins, the shock of these scenes in the first person will be stronger than that in the third person.

Of course, not all scenes are suitable for the first person, and the most exciting car chases in the game are actually not suitable for the first person.

Just like the most classic train level in Shenhai 2, this car chase is also the same level design idea.

That is the feedback brought by the scene change and the stimulating feedback that the player feels.

Face the chase on foot and get into the car to escape from the town, and after getting inside the car, run away in the streets of the town, then come to the country road, and finally cross the bridge.

In the third person, the natural switching and connection of scenes can give players a stronger visual shock experience.

And if you use the first person, then a lot of things can't be shown.

It's the same scene where Nathan Drake and Sullivan and Sam go on an expedition to the Twelve Lighthouses on an extinct volcano in Kings Bay.

The design of climbing towers and collapsing in this section, the shots in immersive mode, are actually more inclined to the first-person design.

Moreover, the first-person perspective on the VR platform is actually different from the first-person perspective on the PC platform.

The easiest way is to have a wider viewing angle.

In this episode of the previous life, the fall from the tower was more of a close-range shaking experience, combined with the third-person over-the-shoulder perspective to form a contrasting spatial contrast to enhance the player's sense of immersion.

But under the immersive experience of VR, it can be transformed naturally.

At the same time, compared to the previous life, "Uncharted: A Thief's End" still has many details that need to be added.

Because in the VR experience warehouse, the force feedback is more comprehensive, not limited to the handle controller.

Moreover, in the VR mode, the player's sense of immersion will be stronger, which also means that the player will pay more attention to the details.

For example, when the player manipulates Drake to climb, the performance of the body and the wall in front of him is in close contact.

In addition, there are various details of feedback, the force feedback brought by falling heavily on the ground, and the feedback when facing explosions and gunshots, these are all things that need to be added in the game.

The purpose is to make the game more realistic, so that players can be more immersed in Nathan Drake's adventure when playing the game.

………………

While developing "Uncharted", news of new games from other game makers is constantly being released.

Among them, the most notable are the new works of NetDragon and Atari, two major game companies.

The World of Elements on Atari's side also announced some new content for the first time.

For example, in the game, there are various relics, players need to decrypt, and then find four elemental swords, and finally connect the whole world.

From the current introduction of Atari, it is obvious that this is an open world that is biased towards puzzle-solving elements.

As for NetDragon's propaganda, it is also non-stop.

Like the previous game, players will play the shadow squad to fight against criminals.

However, there is one difference from the previous one, that is, this time NetDragon changed the background to a fictional island.

Among them, NetDragon shows a lot of real game images. From these real images, it can be seen that the performance of the new game has made a lot of progress compared to the previous game.

This also attracts a lot of screen control players.

"This picture feels a little better!"

"Yeah, I feel that the "Wasteland" of the previous work is much more beautiful, and it must be especially shocking in VR mode!"

"There is also a new work from Atari, which actually feels good."

"But don't you think this feels a bit like the temple setting of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild"?"

"The temple system is not only for picnics, but I am quite optimistic."

"By the way, these game makers have done a lot of action, why is there no news from Nebula Games?"

"Yeah! Where's Chen Xu? Does Nebula Games have no projects?"

In major game media forums, various related information about NetDragon and atrai have been continuously disclosed.

It sparked heated discussions among players.

But soon many players also had a lot of curiosity.

After all, NetDragon, Atari, and other game makers have spread news about this project, but Nebula Games seems to have no major news.

Although there are some reports on the Internet, there are more news about the upcoming launch of some third-party games on the switch platform. For most players, it is obviously not heavy enough.

What they are looking forward to more is Nebula Games, what new projects can they bring to them this year.

But just when the players expressed curiosity.

A post suddenly circulated on the Internet.

"The whole network debut! Shock! The content of Nebula's new game is actually buried in..."

'What happened to the new Nebula game? I believe everyone is very familiar with the VR theme, but what about Nebula games? Let the owner take you to understand it together. ’

Click to enter, and the beginning is a very interesting starting sentence, which is an old marketing at first glance.

But there's still a bit of stuff in there.

Putting aside all kinds of old marketing formats, the players who read it have concluded three points.

Nebula Games is working on new projects and it is a VR game; although there is no publicity, there are actually a lot of Easter eggs secretly buried in the VR theme of Nebula Games; in the end, it may be an action-adventure game.

After discovering this situation, the players were also not calm.

"Fuck! Is the news of Mr. Chen's new work still hidden?"

"2333333, other game manufacturers can't wait to let players all over the world know that President Chen is still so sneaky."

"I found it! A protagonist seems to be named Nathan Drake!"

"Haha, I also found a VR theme for "Red Dead Redemption". Everyone, pay attention to the fact that there is a newspaper at the gate of the camp, which reads the news that Nebula Games' latest handheld switch is on sale. Of course, this is not the point. A piece of information from the second section: It is rumored that Nebula Games is developing a new game "Uncharted Sea", and hundreds of millions of players around the world are looking forward to it."

"This is too much! Use Easter eggs to brag to yourself in your own game!"
