Netherworld Game Producer

Chapter 40: Devices that are enough to change the future game market

Escape 2 officially started production, and Li Wen announced the production of the sequel in the scarf.

'Thank you for your love, in order to let players who like horror games continue to enjoy the feast of horror, Escape 2 has officially started production. ’

'Unlike Escape 1, the location of Escape 2 is in an unknown secret mountain village... The protagonist is also a reporter, not a soldier, please look forward to it. ’

'Also, the producer of Escape 2 is Zhang Chunsheng, the head of the production team of Escape 1 of our company. He has a much better understanding of horror games than me. In terms of horror, he will never disappoint players, and will not make players afraid dare not explore. ’

‘The game script of Escape 1 was completed by Zhang Chunsheng and I, of course, Escape 2 is no exception. ’

And also put a video of Escape 2, which is not much different from the picture of Escape 1.

After all, the picture quality of a game engine costing 100,000 yuan is hard to tell.

However, Escape 2 also uses an upgraded engine that has just been purchased, and advanced intelligent AI can allow players to experience deeper fears.

As for Escape 2, there will be no online mode, this is inevitable.

Maybe in order to take care of more players' acceptance of fear, the game is much easier than Escape 1, and the sense of horror will be reduced.

This is just the difficulty of the easy mode, the difficulty of the normal mode will be far beyond the escape 1.

This is Li Wen's decision through Escape 1 sales.

In this world, most players seem to have low resistance to pure horror games.

At the beginning, it is really difficult for a top-ranked horror game like escape to break out in sales.

Now that Escape 1 has been launched for two weeks, and the sales have reached 3.5 million copies, the sales speed has become slow.

This is a test of the water, and it has detected players' resistance to horror games.

He plans to take it step by step, first strengthening the players' resistance to horror games, and then the next powerful medicine.

There is one more important thing, enough to change the news of the future game market.

Yesterday, Xiao Tian came to the company again, mysteriously.

She learned from a certain channel that the VR virtual reality technology equipment used by the military will soon be put into the civilian market.

This is not comparable to those VRs on the market.

This kind of VR technology covers neurology and so on, and there are things that Li Wen can't figure out at all.

In short, this VR continues to simulate real sensations through the nervous system.

It can reach about 50% realism.

The reason this high-tech technology made its way to the civilian market is that the military has developed new equipment that simulates 100 percent of what it feels like.

The army is about to be updated, so it will flow into the civilian market.

The reason for the delay of the gilt series is that the latest gilt game is going to be a game with new VR technology.

Penguin Games did this, and it still used the game series of Taizhu to do it. The courage is not ordinary, after all, it is a big company with money and willfulness!

As for when the new VR device will be officially launched, Xiaotian doesn't know, but she said it will be soon.

In today's games, VR versions are generally made, and even escape is no exception.

Generally, if you buy the game body, it will come with a VR version... You don't need to spend more money to buy it.

VR has developed for a long time since its birth, and it has been very portable. However, due to some defects, it is not as convenient as a mouse and keyboard to operate.

Therefore, many players do not like to use VR equipment to play games.

Over time, the current VR version of the game has not been particularly optimized, and the operation feels like shit.

This is the flaw of the current VR devices on the market.

Must also have VR controllers, motion capture cameras, etc...

And it also requires a huge open space, although there are also devices such as VR treadmills dedicated to gaming.

But that price can directly dissuade most players.

Therefore, players with average conditions really don’t like VR very much.

However, the new VR equipment that the army is about to put into the civilian population is different.

Neural control, no additional equipment required.

Just lie on the bed and choose a comfortable position to play the game happily.

If this kind of equipment wants to be widely promoted, the price will definitely not be very high, and every player can easily buy it.

The only thing is that the game carrier of this new device is definitely not compatible with the games currently on the market.

Need to make a new version...

This is completely different from the concept of porting games from consoles to PC platforms.

The underlying architecture of the game is different.

Need to redo from the bottom.

This requires the production team to make two identical games with different architectures.

For large factories, there is no problem, but for small and medium-sized factories, there is no financial support at all.

The future of gaming is bound to change.

Small and medium-sized game factories will definitely choose more advanced VR games, rather than continue to guard consoles and PCs.

After Li Wen learned the news of the new VR device, he has already started to change the company's future development thinking.

The only problem right now is that we don't know when the new devices will be available.

a year? two years?

Happy Paradise is not a game company with a profound background like Penguin, and it simply cannot afford it.

Therefore, the production of Escape 2 and Resident Evil must not be stopped.

Good luck, wait until a month after the game goes on sale before the new device hits the market.

Bad luck, the game is about to be completed, and then the new equipment is on the market, and in the end, the game can only be made hard.

After all, a VR device that can simulate the real feeling is the ideal game state for countless players.

Although it is only about 50% of the simulated feeling, it is much better than the current stage of VR with only one screen.

However, since it is a new device, it is inevitable that the production cost of each game will increase.

After all, games need to have taste, touch, pain, everything...

The production cost of a game is estimated to increase several times.

If a small and medium-sized factory makes such a game, it is estimated that they will have to hollow out themselves.

But if you don't do it, you will be left far behind by other companies and will never catch up.

At that time, the game market is bound to be very tragic.

Now that the news has been known in advance, whether the new equipment is put into the civilian market is true or false.

Li Wen felt that it was definitely not wrong to take it seriously.

Now you have to save some money.

Otherwise, when there is no money to make new games, it will directly hurt to death.

In the future, the game market will become larger and larger due to the addition of new devices.

Because of neural control, even people who have never played games before may spend money to buy one to try it out.

Not to mention the gamer who is addicted to the game.

Let's imagine.

An R18 beautiful girl game, you can do shy things with beautiful girls, and it can also bring real interaction to players.

Isn't this riding a horse to buy directly?

Games will no longer be games, but become a second reality...
