"This is a phased victory! It seems that "Super Heroes" lost to Xingyun Games, but did we really lose?" In the NetDragon meeting room, Ma Lei was chatting with everyone.

Although at present, "Super Heroes" does not seem to be as strong as they thought before "The Last Survivor", but the performance of "Super Heroes" itself has been very good.

This is a good sign for Ma Lei.

The quality of "The Last of Us" is obvious to all. It is not a traditional popular sandbox and open world game, but a simple online game. However, its excellent interactive design and script have undoubtedly impressed people in the game industry. a lesson.

Online games that seem to be unable to keep up with the trend of the times can still allow players to experience the fun of it, and can also become a masterpiece.

Especially with the development of the VR platform, online games have more advantages than open world and sandbox games.

And it is such a game that can be called a masterpiece, and their "Super Heroes" can still have the current sales volume, which can be said to rely on their own real quality.

This time he was not crushed, the next time he would meet his opponent, and the next time he would gain a small advantage.

Ma Lei is quite optimistic about this.

"However, the development technology of the VR platform should not be underestimated by overseas game manufacturers." Thinking of what, Ma Lei couldn't help expressing emotion.

The development of "Super Heroes" cannot do without the technology of Apex Games, after all, it is a top overseas game manufacturer.

"It's really great, including Xingyun Games. The optimization of "The Last of Us" on the VR platform is so good, it has something to do with UEgame." Ding Teng from Tenghua Games also nodded with a smile.

""Superhero" this time can only be said to be a run-in, and its sales are also quite good. I think we can already carry out the next new project." Ma Lei suggested.

Even though it was Xingyun Games that stole the limelight, it didn't mean he was a disastrous failure. On the contrary, thanks to the news of the sales of "Super Heroes", the market value of each of them rose slightly.

Of course, if it hadn't been with Nebula Games' "The Last Survivor", it might have risen even more, but this is not important.

The important thing is that this time they finally didn't get run over like a toy car.

"What's the meaning of Apex Game?" Ding Teng asked Ma Lei.

"There should be no rejection over there." Ma Lei said with a smile.

Although not yet communicated, the results are evident.

…………

As time goes by, "The Last of Us" has been online for nearly a week or so.

However, its popularity has not cooled down at all, and the game itself also has a multiplayer mode in the dream memory.

But compared to the content of the game itself, this multiplayer mode is more like an addition.

In addition, Nebula Games now has a lot of PVP-based FPS games, so Yang Chen didn't join the multiplayer mode in "The Last of Us".

But even so, with the excellent quality of the game itself, there are still contents that make it the most discussed game among players.

All kinds of clues and easter eggs in the game were unearthed by the players one by one.

However, unlike the admiration and emotion of players and other people in the industry for "The Last of Us", Yang Chen watched the performance analysis of the technical team on the VR platform in the office.

Compared with the mainstream VR platforms in the past, the performance has indeed improved, but compared with large-scale open world games, it is still a bit insufficient.

Especially the map scene conversion. Linear games like "The Last of Us" basically use animation cutscenes in the map conversion, and there will be no situation where the screen goes black for a new scene when changing a map.

But this technology is only limited to storytelling games such as online hacking. If it is an open world game that focuses on free exploration, or a sandbox game, this model is not very suitable.

Because it is impossible to change a scene, it is necessary to load an animation cutscene, right?

For a game like "GTA", not to mention that the development is only transplanted to the VR platform, it is a difficult thing.

Of course, if you insist on configuration, then there is no big problem, but it is meaningless.

No matter how fun a game is, if its minimum requirement is 2080, it will not become a popular game. Whether it is dream memory or reality, there are countless examples.

But although the current low-end VR platform configuration is not enough for large-scale open world games, apart from online games like "The Last of Us", there are also some special types of games, which Yang Chen thinks are very interesting. Suitable for VR platform.

Strategy games like Yu-Gi-Oh, as well as business simulation games.

It does not require a large scene map, and it does not require cumbersome operations like RTS games. Using the characteristics of the device is even easier than sitting in front of a computer with a keyboard and mouse.

At the same time, compared with other platforms, the VR platform also has its unique advantages. On the one hand, it has a better sense of immersion and substitution, which can bring players a better visual experience.

General business simulation games, as well as strategy games, basically use the God-down perspective, including RTS.

The main purpose is to allow players to have better control, but it also does not bring much strong visual impact.

As long as they are human beings, they all admire beauty, there is no doubt about it.

And most RTS and simulation business games, if it involves game modeling, rather than card-like vertical drawing, basically provide players with independent control of the camera, zoom in and out, why?

Naturally, it is to allow players to better experience the beauty brought by the visual impact. Although most players will not use it, it does not mean that players do not want this better visual experience of art, just because of trouble.

Take games like "League of Legends" as an example, when you are in line with others, you will zoom in on the hero to see how good your 36D is?

Obviously not.

Without affecting your normal game, you can enjoy this visual experience, and most players will not dislike it.

As for the VR platform, thanks to its uniqueness, it presents a large box garden sand table from the perspective of God, which is not much different from the display on the ordinary PC platform.

But the difference is that in VR mode, it is stereoscopic.

Leaning on the chair, Yang Chen closed his eyes and thought about the feasibility of it. Half a day later, Yang Chen opened his eyes, turned on the computer, created a new folder and renamed it: "Civilization".
