Game Development Giant

This was during this year's e3 exhibition, and many people were very concerned about it, and it was almost uproar.

At that time, the media or players were very eager to know about Jester's plan for the 'Era' project. In fact, one month before the opening of e3, the media and players did not even know about Jester. What is the code name for this game being developed.

The code name of "Era" is only known to internal personnel.

All the people involved in this project have signed very strict confidentiality clauses with Mars Entertainment. Once the secret is leaked, they will need to pay a very expensive compensation, so no one takes the initiative to leak the secret.

But then because of an unexpected incident.

Once, when a reporter from a game media went to interview a senior employee of Mars Entertainment, he accidentally saw some information about the 'Era' project. Although the information did not indicate that this was an ongoing project of Jester, But through the description, this reporter still knew that this was a very large development project that was top secret within Mars Entertainment.

Later, the news was exposed.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention, and then almost everyone focused their attention on Jester.

Since it is a software development project, it is top-secret, and it is huge in scale, so this project is currently in Mars Entertainment, and only the so-called future game that Jester is working on is undoubtedly there.

And, people were still speculating.

After all, e3 was about to open at that time. This year's major manufacturers had fully understood the role and influence of e3 in the industry, so they didn't seem to care as much as they did during the first session last year. , just arrange a pre-show press conference casually.

All major manufacturers attach great importance to publicity before e3.

In the past month or two, there have been various overt and covert revelations.

then. Many people, or almost everyone, believe that this so-called 'Era' plan was deliberately announced by Mars Entertainment to attract attention. In other words, there will definitely be revelations about this plan at this year's E3 exhibition. ——In other words, at this year's e3, Jester will definitely come out to brag about how awesome his new game is, just like the previous exhibitions that Mars Entertainment participated in.

But in fact. After e3 ended, Mars Entertainment disappointed everyone.

Although, at E3, Shigeru Miyamoto, who had just joined Mars Entertainment, announced a lot of news about the new "Zelda" game and announced the release time. "Final Fantasy" also announced their new game plan, and there are many others. , games with many fans are all unveiled one by one, and there are even several new IPD works that are very eye-catching.

but. There is nothing about 'era'.

Even Jester did not attend this Mars Entertainment e3. Even when "Shadow Blade" was announced, Itagaki Tomonobu was present.

This makes many people very dissatisfied.

Even after the e3 pre-show conference. Mars Entertainment received tens of thousands of letters from angry players within a week, asking them why there was no information about Jester’s new game at the E3 exhibition!

Mars Entertainment had no choice at the time. He had no choice but to come out and explain, admitting that the 'Era' project was indeed the code name of the game that Jester was working on.

The reason why the news was not revealed at the e3 exhibition is also very simple, that is, the development of the game is not going well. Therefore, there is nothing valuable to share with the players.

But players don’t buy it.

They even wrote posts on some website forums to ridicule Mars Entertainment, which used to be good at using unreliable things to flatter players and deceive players, but now it uses the excuse that there is nothing valuable to share with players. To prevaricate is simply to bully the player's IQ.

Of course, there are people who protect us, and there are quite a few of them.

After all, even after the release of SB games like Sword and Sword 6, SBs had to clean up the ground for the Xiang that their father Yao pulled out, not to mention a company like Mars Entertainment, which has never let players down.

In fact, when talking about Yao Chongxiao, I suddenly thought of something that I would like to share. Of course, many people know that the immortal grandson likes to call Yao Chongxiao Yao Xian, because Yao Chongxiao claims to be the father of the fairy sword, but many people may not know, How did the name Yao Xian come about? Many people may not believe it when told. He gave this name to himself.

Of course there is evidence.

One of Jester's friends was once a fan of the Fairy Sword series. Of course, it wasn't the kind that started with Fairy Sword 1. He got into it during Fairy Sword 33 and Fairy Sword 4.

Of course, Fairy Sword 3 and Fairy Sword 4 have nothing to do with Yao's cheating. This was done by Mr. Foreman.

Therefore, when he learned that Fairy Sword 5 was released, he was very excited, because it was piracy that killed Microsoft, so he decided to pay off the pirated copies he had played before, so he bought a copy of Fairy Sword 5. Version.

It was just around the corner from CJ that year, and Beisoft, which was developing Sword 5 at that time, also decided to sign sales on CJ, including Yao Chongzhao.

Jester's friend was gone like crazy.

As for how arrogant Yao Chongli was at that time, how he ignored the players, and how he thought he was a nobody, Jester only listened to what his friends said, and there was a suspicion of adding fuel to the fire, but Yao Chongliang The signature is genuine on the box of the collector's edition.

And Yao cheated on the name he signed on the collector's edition.

It's Yao Xian.

When Jester saw this, there was only one sentence in his mind that could describe his mood at that time.

That is, how can there be such shameless people in this world?

This was Jester's first impression at the time, and the subsequent release of Sword of Sword 6 perfectly confirmed Jester's idea.

Back to business.

Although the players at the time were dissatisfied, Jester and Mars Entertainment were determined not to reveal any information about the 'Era' project, and the players had nothing to do with it.

Therefore, they waited for the Tokyo Exhibition in a few months. However, because e3 and Tokyo Exhibition are not far apart, there are no games announced at Mars Entertainment’s own home e3 exhibition, and it is even less likely to be announced at the Tokyo Exhibition. What's more, the Tokyo Show still focuses on linear Japanese games as the main promotion target, and games like this one that Jester wants to make have a high degree of freedom.

No matter how you look at it, there are some American games that emphasize exploration.

Therefore, not many people would think that Mars Entertainment would announce news about the ‘Era’ project at the Tokyo Show.

The fact is not beyond the expectations of the players. Mars Entertainment did not announce the news about this game that they wanted to know at the Tokyo Exhibition. Therefore, they shifted their attention to the game again at the end of this year. Mars Entertainment Carnival held above.

You know, Jester's development idea for the real-world game was announced at last year's carnival, and it shocked the industry as soon as it was announced.

Whether it was then or now, many people blame Jester's ideas for being unrealistic. In fact, he just said it to deceive people, because he knows better than anyone else that such a game is simply impossible to make. .

But actually, after the carnival is over.

Jester immediately started building a development team for his 'real world' game.

And by this year's carnival, it has been a full year since the game was announced, and it is impossible that there is no information that can be shared with players.

Players don’t expect to be able to play this game at this year’s carnival, but by revealing a little information, we can make up our own heads.

Therefore, as the opening time of this year’s Mars Entertainment Carnival is getting closer, players’ expectations for Jester’s new game are getting heavier and heavier. According to Jester’s current thoughts, at this year’s carnival, , and he doesn’t plan to announce anything, at least before next year’s e3 war, he doesn’t want to reveal any news about his new game.

Not that there's really nothing to reveal.

The problem is that during this year, the main work was mainly on some basic settings. So far, it can only be said that the vertical drawing of the main characters has been completed, but the modeling has not yet been completed.

This is far from reaching the point where once it was announced, it shocked the industry and left everyone speechless.

Therefore, Jester did not want to announce the news at the carnival.

And when it comes to next year's e3 exhibition, with the hard work of more than half a year, it is very possible to make some demonstration pictures. With the demonstration pictures, you don't need to brag yourself, and you can shut up all the doubters. .

But this goes against what the audience expects at a carnival.

Fortunately, the early announcement of the website this time attracted a lot of people's attention. It was originally planned to be announced at the carnival, but there was no way. In order to divert the players' attention, the only option was to announce it in advance so that the players would not want to. Always focus on Jester's game.

Tell the truth.

For more than a year, Jester barely showed up, which was very different from the previous year when he often participated in many interviews.

Even for such an important occasion as e3, Jester did not show up.

Many people think that Jester will definitely appear at the carnival. After all, Jester has been an unbeatable candidate for the opening speech at the previous carnivals, and this time, it will be no exception.

However, there are less than five days left before the opening of the Mars Entertainment Carnival.

A piece of news suddenly appeared in the most prominent position in the major media: Jester was ill. (To be continued...)
