Game Entertainment Empire

After the demo video of Yang Chen and Lin Jiayi playing was released, the topic and popularity of All-Star Brawl continued to ferment.

In the NetDragon conference room, which is paying close attention to the news of Nebula Games, a meeting is also in progress.

Look at the collected data and the latest demo video released by Nebula Games.

NetDragon, Tenghua, and Phoenix. These three companies have always been at odds with Nebula Games, but they have never taken any advantage. They are also discussing closely at this time.

"The IP attracts players. At the same time, Nebula Games claims that this is an action game that allows everyone to happily knock off popular characters. With the latest information released, it can be concluded that this is a casual light game. !" In the conference room, Ma Lei took a sip of tea and said to the other three families.

"Mr. Ma, what's the explanation?" Ding Teng from Tenghua's side looked at Ma Lei.

"The design of canceling the health bar is no longer a system of rubbing moves, but unified moves. Nebula Games is simplifying the threshold for getting started!" Ma Lei narrowed his eyes slightly.

Looking at Tenghua and Phoenix who were thinking thoughtfully, Ma Lei showed an incomprehensible smile: "You should have studied Nebula games. Currently, the two biggest cash cows in Nebula games are "Jedi" You should also know about "Survival" and "League of Legends."

Not mentioning "World of Warcraft" and other games. Although those games also make money, their development costs and publicity costs are also very high.

The only difference between "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" and "League of Legends" is that these two games can be said to make money while lying down.

For example, if "World of Warcraft" does not have different updates in subsequent versions, including content, dungeons, and PVP battlefields, then even "World of Warcraft" will inevitably decline.

But "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" is different from "League of Legends". A new pass and a new hero skin do not involve any game content at all. It is just a simple art skin, and you can make a lot of money. Full.

As for the updated content that brings novelty to players, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" is an FPS game, and new maps and new vehicles do require a lot of thought.

But "League of Legends" is different. It's more about making changes for balance. Sometimes there are even no changes at all, and you can still jump repeatedly with one hand.

For example, in a new version, the skills and talents of a certain hero are redone, and then after a major version, they are changed back.

Of course, this operation is just a metaphor.

If you really want to do that, it will be a loss that outweighs the gain, or the reworked skills and talent effects will fail, and players will prefer the previous gameplay.

"League of Legends is more popular globally than DOTA. Why is this? Because the threshold for players to get started has been lowered. There is no positive and negative compensation, no high-slope forest card vision, and no pulling jungle. With the wild hoarding mechanism, players’ learning costs are greatly reduced.”

"Why is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds able to break out of FPS? Because it focuses on entertainment, the instability of the Destiny Circle, and random supplies. Don't you think it's very similar to the prop mode in All-Stars?" Ma Lei said, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"There are also mobile games. According to the latest data, the player base of the mobile games "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" and "League of Legends" developed by Nebula Games has even exceeded that of PC games. And in mobile games, Nebula Games has once again Simplifying its operation, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" mobile game can automatically pick up and install accessories, and "League of Legends" mobile game can still get half the money gain even if the knife is not replenished. "

"Why can't fighting games do this? Simplify the operation, cancel the settings of the health bar, and cancel the settings of rubbing moves. This is the way fighting games should be popularized!" Ma Lei said in a deep voice.

Collecting data and summarizing the data, at this moment, he seemed to have returned to the feeling of designing and making games on the front line.

"Mr. Ma, what do you mean?" Tenghua was a little unsure.

"We also have classic IP characters. We want to be the first to make a fighting game before Nebula Games. Your Tenghua team also has experience in making fighting games, right?" Ma Lei said in a deep voice.

This is the opportunity to overtake on a detour.

Nebula Games’ actual machine demonstration demo has proven everything, and what he said is also supported by data and examples.

According to a big data survey, why do most players not like to play fighting games?

It’s just because it’s so difficult to get started!

Therefore, if you want to make fighting games bigger, it is necessary to lower the threshold for getting started.

There is no doubt about this.

As for failure?

At worst, they failed with Nebula Games. They were not afraid of wearing shoes when they were barefoot. Now they were barefoot. After all, they had lost so many times. How big a deal would it be to lose again?

But Nebula Games is different.

"Mr. Ma, this..." There was some hesitation on the Phoenix side.

Why does this scene seem so familiar?

When Nebula Games launched "League of Legends", didn't they also make a similar game?

After canceling the settings of experience, money and last hit, the game went cold. In the end, the materials were given to Apex Games to develop the soul-like mythological game "Godfall", which was then used by Nebula Games' "God of War" It was run over like a toy car.

"Don't worry, it won't be that simple. There are low thresholds and high levels of advancement. If what I expected is good, there will be more advanced operations for seemingly simple operations, which Yang Chen deliberately did not show in his demonstration video. What’s coming out!” Ma Lei sat upright.

This is all accumulated experience!

When the ambitious production of Phoenix Games failed, NetDragon also specially studied it.

"Knocking the opponent away, but allowing subsequent pursuit. This is where masters advance. It seems that combos and combos are cancelled, but in fact the pursuit system is just a pseudo-combination." Ma Lei said sharply.

Doesn't the other party think that he deliberately didn't show this part of the video? Can't he see it?

Of course, if Ma Lei's thoughts were known to Yang Chen, Yang Chen would definitely cry out that he was wronged.

He's not trying to hide, he's the real deal!

He also wanted to perform cool operations, but his brain was in place and his hands couldn't do it!

"Facts speak louder than words. Nebula Games' DEMO has proven everything, and such a project is nothing to us. As for failure? Have we failed too many?" Ma Lei said with a snort.

If it was a few years ago, he would still have some scruples. After all, NetDragon is also a top manufacturer in the country.

But now, isn’t it just a loss?

What a big deal?

Players are used to it.

"After losing so many times, I have actually studied Nebula Games. The people who know a person best are often not his closest people, but his enemies. No one knows Yang Chen and Nebula Games better than me. Come on!" Ma Lei said in a deep voice while looking at everyone.

He understands so well!

Time and time again, he was crushed by Nebula Games.

Failure after failure.

But every failure is not nothing, every failure makes them NetDragon stronger!

He would ask his subordinates to collect follow-up information on Nebula Games and provide follow-up feedback.

Let its designers write analysis books for Nebula game products.

There is absolutely no one in the industry who understands Nebula Games better than him.
