Create a great era of e-sports

Chapter 114 RTS: Race for Hegemony

Mo Yu didn't know what Zhang Yiming was thinking. If he knew, he might tell him that he was thinking nonsense.

In this world, no one understands e-sports better than him.

As the most popular MOBA games in e-sports, there are only three that are really popular, one is LoL, one is Dota, and one is King of Games.

Among the three, LoL is simple and easy to operate, Dota is more difficult to operate, but there are many loyal old players. King of Kings is a mobile game, although it is a bit plagiarized, but the game is fast, there are high-end skills, and it covers most mobile terminal.

These three directly cover all mobas, and other moba games on the market are not worth mentioning in front of them.

Now "Gods and Gods" has absorbed the essence of LoL and Dota. Moyu will develop the king only after the birth of smartphones. By then, except for the leftovers on the MOBA game track, other games will not be available at all. There is no way out.

Tianxing wants to develop "Battlefield", unless Mo Yu raises his hand and brings it into the e-sports system, otherwise it will have to live in the shadow of Moyu Company forever and operate half-deadly.

"Mr. Mo, the booth is on track. I heard from the staff that several of the manufacturers participating in CJ this time have developed new games that have the same gameplay as our "Gods and Gods". Do you want to check it out?" Yang Qiu Worried: "Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. I think we should learn more about them. Many of these manufacturers are giants in the domestic game industry. There is a lot of pressure!"

"Oh? Which ones are there?" Mo Yu asked curiously: "I just want to go shopping and take a look."

"Tianxing, Guangguang, Rongtian, Changyou." Yang Qiu counted seven or eight companies one by one: "Among them, Tianxing is the largest one and is currently the largest game company in the country. There are also some major manufacturers in the remaining companies. Everyone seems to have discussed it, and everyone is eyeing the MOBA cake."

Mo Yu was also shocked when he heard this.

"So many?"

Yang Qiu nodded and said: "It's just a lot more. I've mentioned that these are all well-known in the industry. I don't know how many unknown small studios there are. After all, the revenue data of "Gods and Gods" can be said casually. You can get a rough idea by doing some calculations.”

Others don't know, but as Yang Qiu is the company's leader in charge of administration and affairs, he still knows a little bit about the financial data.

From the launch of "Gods and Gods" to now, after deducting all operating costs, the net profit has been hundreds of millions, and this number is still rising. The month-on-month growth is higher every time, and there is no downward trend at all.

If represented by a curve, it would be like a steep mountain peak, rising all the way without any drop at all. It is very scary!

Based on this game alone, Moyu Company's current market value exceeds that of most game manufacturers, with a market share of at least 20%.

With such terrifying data, no one would be jealous.

"One game of "Gods and Gods" is worth more than four or five other people's games put together. In this case, naturally everyone wants to follow suit. It's funny to say that the company I worked for before seems to have also developed it. An online game of the same type.”

Yang Qiu started working in a game company. The company he worked for developed the most popular prop-based gold-paying game on the market. The game quality was average, the picture quality was poor, and the gameplay was the same. The reputation was very poor, but the income was still there. It's passable, and only a dozen people can live a healthy life. I didn't expect that "Gods and Gods" would follow the trend now.

"Even they are following suit. You can imagine how many people in the industry want to get involved." Yang Qiu said worriedly: "Two fists are hard to beat with four hands!"

"It makes sense." Mo Yu nodded and said: "Although I am confident that I will be invincible, I am also afraid that if I am not careful, I will lose everything. You just stare at the booth here. If you have anything, just call me. I will go have a look."

What he is afraid of is the emergence of a company like Penguin!

He did whatever it took to copy directly, and relied on the traffic of the chat software to overtake him in a corner. If he couldn't beat it, he would either join or acquire it. Now he didn't dare to say that he would be able to withstand it.

Moreover, there are also buckles and penguins in this world, but in the game, they are just little Karami.

After making arrangements for the follow-up, looking at the surging flow of people from all directions, Mo Yu finally squeezed out from behind the booth.

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, he looked back and saw that the entire booth No. 7 was surrounded by old people, tourists, and players of "Gods and Gods". There were not many neighboring stores. All the people are attracted by the fishing company.

"Haha, Shanshan's tricks are easy to use. The beauties defeated the whole audience~"

After laughing, Mo Yu walked out.

In the CJ of this world, the booth distribution rule is that the top thirty manufacturers invited by the official are in the best and most forward positions, and other booths are allocated according to the number of 'patterns'. The more patterns there are, the larger the booths will be and the location will be larger. It's better; there is less layout, the booth is small, and the location is bad.

Therefore, large manufacturers and foreign game companies are often in the front, while small factories and studios with a few people are in the back.

In addition to participating in the exhibition, the official will also organize various activities at the center of the venue, with major game manufacturers participating.

Moyu Company arranged for a group of Showgirls to perform on stage, and asked the contestants who came to participate in the exhibition to be divided into two groups to compete against each other for a friendly match.

Wait until all activities are organized.

The officials have also joined forces with dozens of media and invited well-known industry figures to serve as judges, and will then award awards to the participating games.

Mo Yu is still very confident that "Gods and Gods" will win the award. After all, the quality of the game itself is there, and the popularity at the exhibition is also overwhelming. Unless the official decision has been made in advance, "Gods and Gods" will definitely have a winner. I just don’t know if it’s the best new game or the most popular online game.

However, the award judging is on the last day, so there is no need to rush now.

"Let's go and take a look at the small factories in the back first. Small factories tend to have more innovative ideas if they want to stand out. Maybe they can give me some inspiration."

After thinking about it, Mo Yu walked towards the back.

As we walked along, there were fewer and fewer tourists as we went back. After all, it was only the first day, and the big factories were showing off their tricks frequently, which naturally attracted most of the tourists. By the second day, everyone in the front had seen everything, and everyone went to the back. coming.

Mo Yu originally wanted to wander around, but now that there are fewer people, it's just the right time.

"Everyone seems to be doing online games for exchanging skins for money."

The further back Mo Yu looked, the more he realized that he might have been wrong.

I originally thought that we might be able to find some bright spots, but in fact, most small factories have difficulty supporting themselves, and the games released on official platforms do not attract much user attention. It is more practical to innovate than to follow the script.

The games launched by many companies look fancy, but the core is the same.

Either it is a 3D online game imitating Yamaguchiyama, but the picture quality is poor and the gameplay cannot be copied well. It eliminates the point card system and focuses on various gang battles, national battles, and server battles; or it is to follow the trend of legends and fight monsters and upgrades. The gameplay system for grinding equipment is also very similar, even worse than the original version. It is full of various consumption traps and has only one purpose: to make money, to make money hard.

After walking for more than half a circle, Mo Yu didn't find any games that attracted him until he reached a corner.

"Racial hegemony?"

What caught my eye was the booth of a company called Lava Studio.

The booth is small, but Lava Studio attaches great importance to it. Posters, CGs, and Shougirl are all available. At this time, there are several staff members on the stage welcoming a few dozen tourists.

Mo Yu stood in the audience and watched the game CG launched by Lava Studio.

The CG is very simple. It is not a virtual animation created with a lot of money, but it can be clearly seen that it is edited by changing the perspective based on the real machine demonstration screen in the game.

The entire CG tells a very simple story of four races fighting for hegemony.

It can be seen from it that players can attack the enemy by manipulating various units.

"Is this an RTS?"

Mo Yu's eyes lit up.

After coming to this world for so long, he has never found a real-time strategy game like the Star Wars and World of Warcraft games in his previous life.

Even Blizzard in this world only owns World of Warcraft. The previous game Warcraft under the same world view has not been released at all, let alone StarCraft!

Therefore, the genre of RTS games has never appeared at all, otherwise I am afraid it would not be his turn to propose the concept of e-sports.

The picture quality of this racial hegemony launched by Lava Studio is not very good, and the gameplay is not very mature. It can be seen from the CG that there are very few types of units that players can control, not many base buildings, and even fewer map elements. It's pitiful, like a crude version of Warcraft.

But the core gameplay of the game is unique and full of innovation, and is very similar to the situation of "Gods and Gods" before the remake.

It is precisely because of this unique gameplay that even though the game's picture quality is very poor, several tourists who experienced it on the stage enjoyed it and couldn't extricate themselves.

Mo Yu walked forward and was soon greeted by a staff member.

"Hello, would you like to experience "Race Conflict" developed by our company?"

"This is a game with no similar gameplay in the world. It took our Lava Studio three years to produce. It has not even been launched on the official platform yet. You will be the first batch of players to experience it."

"In the game, you can control a race, upgrade buildings, control units to destroy other races, and experience a racial battle in the game. The battlefield experience full of epic feeling will definitely make your blood boil."

The staff chatted non-stop next to me.

Mo Yu said a few words casually, keeping his eyes on the computer next to him, where a player was playing.

I saw that man controlling an orc hero holding a giant sword, using skills to kill the minion controlled by the computer. The death of the minion provides the hero with experience to upgrade and learn skills, but no items were exploded, and there was no control interface. There are 6 conspicuous small compartments where equipment can be placed.

When switching the screen, you can clearly see that the building is built directly after being put down. There is no upgrade method. The function of the building is very simple. There are only three or four types of soldiers, and there are no attributes such as attack type and armor type.

"It's really a crude version of Warcraft!"

Before, I was still unsure through CG, but now after watching it at close range, Mo Yu confirmed his guess.

(I came back from my mother-in-law’s house and drove all afternoon. I’m a little sleepy. There may be more tonight. If not, it’s because I fell asleep. I will add two chapters tomorrow.)
