Game Entertainment Empire

Whether it's a movie or a game, or anime, the theme of horror should not be too much, otherwise it will only be counterproductive.

Yang Chen understands this very well, including "Resident Evil" and "Escape" have already proved this point with actual sales performance.

But it is different in production, Yang Chen needs the production members of the team to understand what is called fear.

Only by understanding can we make a really interesting game, just like when making "Escape", Yang Chen brought Chen Shu and Wang Ye to a good memory.

This time the production of "Silent Hill" is no exception.

It can be said that compared to "Escape" and "Resident Evil", "Silent Hill" is easier to adapt to the film, because its own game is unfolded like a film narrative.

And the whole game is not as scary as the zombies in "Resident Evil", nor is it as scary as the mental patients who suddenly emerge from the dark in "Escape".

"Silent Hill" is more of a depressive horror, making players suspicious. At the same time, the content of religion, psychology and occult interspersed in the game is also quite suitable for horror themes.

In the end, the production team led the production team to decide on a park in the suburbs of Jiang City. After Yang Chen communicated with the other party, they won two nights, and they also had the cooperation of related park employees.

But Yang Chen himself didn't intend to go, and Yang Chen, the supervisor, handed it over to Chen Shu and Wang Ye.

As an old employee who had experienced this kind of detailed experience, Yang Chen felt that they would give those newcomers a wonderful night experience.

After all, Yang Chen has more important things to do than give the employees a wonderful experience.

The development of "Minecraft" and the story of "Silent Hill" required Yang Chen to be ready.

The speed of Xu Yu's side is also very fast, the entire company has been established, and the search for a director has already begun, and what Yang Chen needs now is to get the story of "Silent Hill" out, and then let him The screenwriter polishes it into a screenplay.

"Why don't you use the domestic background? In this way, the players will still be able to make a movie at that time, wouldn't the sense of substitution be stronger?" Wang Yaliang sat next to Yang Chen during the lunch break in the office,

Watching him write the last ending of "Silent Hill", he said curiously.

Compared with movies that only need one ending, the game will usher in various endings according to different branches.

There is good, there is bad, there is darkness and there is little light, it's all up to the player.

"That way the content of the game will be a little sensitive." Yang Chen rolled his eyes and said, although compared to the strictness in the dream memory, you can do it if you say you can, and you can't do it if you don't. So terrible.

But this does not mean that it is not strict. Localization and some specific content will always bring some negative effects.

Especially the plot in "Silent Hill", which contains religious and other elements, is even more sensitive.

Including Lin Jiayi's "Prototype of Massacre" Yang Chen also gave him a faithful suggestion to make the background into an overhead world, so as not to be stamped with a 404 rejection by the relevant departments during the follow-up review seal.

Not only at home, but also in overseas countries, sometimes some political correctness will appear, which is something that cannot be helped.

For example, in Hollywood-style blockbusters, blacks have played more and more important roles in recent years, and even the Little Mermaid is played by blacks with dreadlocks, which was unimaginable in the past.

As for the official statement that this is the most suitable and in line with the public's aesthetic interpretation.

? ? ? ? ? ? ?

are you serious?

"Is this the game we will mainly develop next?" Wang Yaliang asked Yang Chen curiously.

With a smile on his face, Yang Chen shook his head, "'Silent Hill' is very important, but it's 'Minecraft' that I really need to focus on."

! ?

Wang Yaliang was a little confused.

The main game developed will be "Minecraft"?

A pixel game?

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Wang Yaliang was a little puzzled.

"When I make gdd, well, it should be said that when we make the game, you will understand what kind of game it is." Yang Chen had a smile on his face.

Is "Silent Hill" important to Nebula Games?

Undoubtedly, very important.

Whether it is the cost or it represents the first step of Nebula Games to test the waters of film adaptation IP, or it is itself a big production.

But compared with "My World", "Silent Hill" is much less important, because "My World" is not just a game in Yang Chen's view, it can even be said that it is enough to subvert most A person's understanding of the game.

But listening to Yang Chen's words on Wang Yaliang's side, he was a little dazed.

From the perspective of the game itself, it seems to be a game similar to Lego blocks, and according to what Yang Chen said, it is also a pixel game.

Such a small game, no matter how you look at it, is the standard configuration of that kind of independent game.

On the other hand, "Silent Hill" can be said to be a big production, and coupled with the strategic steps of filming, there is absolutely no problem in saying that it is a 3a-level project.

Even the cost of development alone including the game and the follow-up movie is definitely a project of tens of millions of dollars.

But in this case, Yang Chen said that "My World" is the main core project in the future, which made Wang Yaliang a little confused. Even though Yang Chen said that she would be able to understand after making a game, she still Quite confused.

After pinching the other person's face, Yang Chen had a smile on his face, but he felt a little regretful in his heart, he lost weight and the feeling of pinching his face was not very good.

"I won't participate in the "Silent Hill" project. I'm going to the "Minecraft" project team." Thinking of something, Wang Yaliang coughed lightly, and said to Yang Chen with erratic eyes.

"Are you scared because it's a horror game?" After sharing the same bed for so many years, how could this small thought be hidden from the past, Yang Chen chuckled and moved his face closer.

"Who's scared! I'm just curious about what kind of game "Minecraft" is. Didn't you say that this game is the main project? Of course I have to study hard." Wang Yaliang said seriously.

"Okay, I believe it." Yang Chen waved his hand, but the smile on his face seemed to be wider, just like the smile at the press conference of "Sekiro Shadows Die Twice".

Although the achievements of "Minecraft" in the memory of dreams are against the sky, including the concept of game design itself is a breakthrough, but its production is really simple, at least for the current Nebula game This is the case.

Even if the game "Minecraft" is completed, the development of "Silent Hill" on the other side will not be delayed at all, and it may even be the most frightening part of the progress once it passes.

Looking at Wang Yaliang next to him, Yang Chen who left the chair and returned to his own seat held back his smile.
