Game Development: Driving Players Crazy at the Start

There is a bit of excitement on Weibo, and the players have not yet reacted to the shock brought by "Dominion", Fang Zheng announced another video here.

This immediately lets the players fry the pot!

"Justice will prevail!"

"Hey, look! I can lift the whole world!"

"Bring your horse here! It's glorious that you will die!"

"If you dare to extend the hand of Noxus, I dare to chop him off!"

A line echoed in the players' ears, some were funny, some were serious, which also made the players very curious, who is this man wearing armor and holding a two-handed sword?

It's a bit naive, but it also gives people a sense of fearlessness and courage.

"F*ck, old thief Fang, you beast, is it fun to hang your appetite?!"

"Let's talk about it, how much is your game? Can't I just buy it!"

"I really want to buy it to play, but the old thief Fang didn't even say the release date!"

"That heavy armor is like a humanoid tank, so f*ck feels safe!"

"Demacia? Noxus? Does the boss explain what this is with?"

Soon, there was a wave of discussion posts about Fang Zheng's latest promotional video on the Internet.

First of all, Fang Zheng is a game designer, and he said when he released "Dominion" before, he is developing a new game.

So it is not difficult to guess that the man in this video is the character in Fang Zheng's new game.

But here comes the problem...

Although the information given in the video is very limited, careful players still find it unusual.

The first is that strange building, standing there like a statue holding a staff.

What's the use of this statue? Is it pure map decoration or does it have a special function?

These players have mixed answers.

Some people think that it is just for good looks. After all, the statue is not unusual at all during the whole video process.

Some people think that it is impossible for Fang Zheng to do such a meaningless thing. Since it is included in the video, it means that the strange building is very important.

Secondly, although the map given in the video is only a small piece, this does not affect players' speculation.

At first glance, the style of the map is very simple, which roughly excludes traditional games that run maps.

Because of the traditional map game, designers will work hard on the map and try to make it rich and varied, whether it is a reversal or a beautiful scenery, it is absolutely impossible to be that simple.

But the players did not dare to be 100% sure. After all, there was too little information revealed in the video. These were all speculated by the players based on their own experience.

Finally, the action of the character in the video is demonstrated. There are not many actions, but it is easy to remember.

A ghost animal dancing with both hands shaking, a one-handed handstand, and another swinging a big sword in his hand like a spinning top.

The most magnificent and deepest action for the opposite sex to summon a golden giant sword from the sky.

If these are not wrong, they should be the abilities of the character~

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the special effects of this ability is enough for players to be curious and expectant.

weird! Very weird!

Yes, this video feels weird!

Compared with traditional games, the role abilities seem to be a little bit less, and the map is very simple. Players have thought about it for a long time and didn't understand what type of game this is.

However, just when the players complained that Fang Zheng was appetizing, Fang Zheng once again updated a dynamic on Weibo. This time it was not a video, but a background introduction to the story.

......

On the continent of Valoran, although people have disputes about Demacia’s military discipline, the same point is that everyone respects it. Both civilians and soldiers strictly abide by the zero-tolerance rule, which means that Demacia’s army will never be in battle. Will find excuses, run away, or surrender.

The supreme army leaders enforced these principles vigorously...

...Gailen-a brave fighter with the title of "Demacia Power". He is the pride of the Demacia army, the leader of the Fearless Vanguard Army, and a model of the army. Thousands of heroes are in Dema West Asia and Noxus fought bloody battles and died on the battlefield...

As a proud and noble warrior, Galen regards himself as an ordinary member of the fearless vanguard to participate in the battle.

He is loved by his fellow siblings and respected by his opponents-especially as a son of the noble defending family, he is entrusted with the important task of guarding the territory and ideals of Demacia...

...He is wearing heavy armor that resists magic, holding a broad sword, and is always ready to face all the madmen who manipulate magic on the battlefield with a storm of righteous steel...

Until one time, under the banner of the army, Galen met his well-matched opponent-the ominous blade Katrina. Those soldiers who participated in the war and survived thought that the battle between Galen and Katrina did not seem to be in the battle. Fighting, and like dancing...

This is the first time in his life Galen has returned from the battlefield out of breath, although some people think that he did not lose the battle because of the disparity in strength...

...At that time, the rumors were raging, and since then, Galen would seize every opportunity to discuss with Catalina to prove himself. As a moral model of Demacia, Galen never paid attention to these rumors because he knew that others were Can't understand him. For a true warrior, finding a well-matched opponent is his motivation.

"The best way to kill the enemy is to chop over with the people around him-Galen!"

......

A post on Weibo that is not too long has answered the players’ doubts very well.

It turned out that the man in the video was named Galen, who was born in the ancient defending family of Demacia, and the defending family has defended Demacia's glory for generations.

And from this Weibo, it is not difficult to see that there is a magic setting in the background of this game, because Galen himself seems to be extremely annoying and devilish.

Demacia also has a hostile country called ‘Noxus’.

And from the background of the story, it can be seen that Galen, the power of Demacia, seems to be somewhat unclear with the hostile female Assassin of Noxus.

"To be honest, Fang Fang, why don't you really want to write novels!"

"Able to design games and create music. Now even the backstory is written so well, old thief Fang, can you tell me what else you can't?!"

"Fang Zheng: I wouldn't know how to have a baby!"

"Tsk tusk, Galen, the power of Demacia, Katrina, the ominous blade, this name is full of words when you hear it!"

"The best way to kill the enemy is to cut down with the people around him! This is really domineering!"

"So... when will the game be released?!"

Fang Zheng's Weibo is full of comments from fans.

Regarding the newly updated story background, combined with the previous promotional video, in fact, without too much repetition, the fans themselves have already made up a huge worldview.

To a certain extent, I understand the world background of Fang Zheng's new game. Everyone has a general understanding of this new game. Although it is still full of confusion, it is better than before.

This is actually the biggest role of the background story of a game, rationalizing the game settings, making it easier to be accepted, and making the characters more full-blown.

But the more you understand, the more curious the players are.

With such a grand world view background, the content of the game is certainly not too bad.

And the designer of this game is Fang Zheng, the man who is hated by the players!

Although the previous "FlappyBird" and "Overcome Difficulties with Bennett Foday" have driven most people crazy, in the end, players have to admit that the playability of these two games is still very high.

Otherwise, everyone would not be abused while playing to death.

Therefore, players have no doubt about the playability of Fang Zheng's new game, and they all have full expectations.

Based on past experience, Fang Zheng has never let them down in this respect.

"Old thief Fang, I hope you don't mess up, our patience is limited!"

"Yes, you better get acquainted and give Galen and Katerina a perfect ending!"

"Gan, don't you say that I hadn't thought of this, Fang Zheng, the beast, won't let Galen and Katerina stage a story of a birth and death, and then deceive us into tears~"

"Emm~ With Fang Zheng's urinary sex, it's really impossible!"

"Crowdfunding! Crowdfunding! Crowdfunding now!"

Most players seem to have defaulted Fang Zheng's new game to the traditional game with a plot. After all, the plot of Galen and Katerina in the background of the story is too inductive.

As a result, the players strayed away, for fear that Fang Zheng would put out a drama of sadistic tears in which Galen and Katerina were separated from each other, and lovers could hardly be married.

At the same time, Fang Zheng in the office looked at the player's comments on his Weibo, with a dumbfounding expression on his face.

It seems that the shadows I have brought to the players before are still very deep. A simple story background can remind players of the bitter drama...

I have to say that the players' brains are really big!

But... a special competitive game, it is a game that has been supplemented by your brains, and what is the relationship between Galen and Katerina...

Are your brain circuits so strange? !

Regarding the players' speculation, Fang Zheng was a little helpless and didn't even know how to complain!

For a long time, Fang Zheng could only helplessly reply to the players on Weibo.

"Did you misunderstand something?"
