Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 244 148. What? ! Want to acquire condor company directly? !

The first thing Qing Zhiyuan saw when he saw the new game developed by condor was——

Isn’t this the light of the torch?

But if you take a closer look, you will find that there is actually a big difference. The background world view of Torchlight is more sci-fi, while Condor's game is full of dark magic style games.

To be precise, it is still the same as Dungeons and Dragons, with magic, medieval knights, hunters, etc...

It's just that the painting style is American cartoon style, so it gives Qing Zhiyuan a feeling of torchlight.

The color is actually more of a bright and dark style.

There are even some places that can be seen borrowing from Marvel and DC.

"What is the setting of this game?" Qing Zhiyuan asked.

Breivik smiled, full of confidence, "This game is set in a magical world. Human beings have discovered and inherited the power from the underground abyss, but after excessive use, they will become people enslaved by black magic. , thereby losing one's own soul.

In the game we call these monsters Ashbringer. "

Ah hiss...

Ashbringer?

Why does this name sound so familiar?

This story should not be written by you, but by the Warcraft team.

"The protagonist group, or the protagonist himself, actually experienced the golden age, and then sold his soul to the abyss of ashes. After experiencing everything, the protagonist now embarks on the road to find his soul again."

Breivik said, "That's roughly the story, but overall it's a game where you keep fighting monsters to get equipment."

"Huh? This world view is interesting." Qing Zhiyuan touched his chin.

Good guy, although history has changed, your uncle is still your uncle. These guys still created such a game after Diablo was gone.

Just after listening to the introduction, Qing Zhiyuan already had the urge to experience the game.

In fact, there is a shadow of darkness in it, but it is different from darkness.

Absolutely.

Qing Zhiyuan originally had a slight psychological burden, feeling that he had robbed others of their games and opportunities, but now it seems that it doesn't matter if these guys didn't make Diablo, because their brains and strength are more important. Here, there will always be different flowers blooming.

Overall, it was pretty good. The only thing that surprised Qing Zhiyuan was——

This game called [Ashes of Eternal Marks] is actually a turn-based game.

Should we say that history is full of amazing coincidences?

"Why not make this game real-time?" Qing Zhiyuan asked, "I feel that we can make a game like Diablo."

"Really?"

Hearing Qing Zhiyuan's words, a flash of astonishment flashed across the faces of Breivik and Scarfo brothers. Who would have thought that the president of Pokeni could be so generous and not mind others copying their games, and even suggested in return Have others made something similar?

"Um……"

Several people looked at each other, and then responded, "Actually, we first set up the game framework when playing group running, so you can also see that there are many situations in the game that require rolling dice to advance the game and fight.

But then, halfway through, I discovered that there was a game called Diablo on the market.

After we experienced it, we all sighed deeply——

This is the game in our minds. "

Breivik smiled, "It's embarrassing to say that we actually wanted to make it look like Diablo, but we actually have no experience at all in how to make it real-time, and we don't know how to implement it programmatically."

"Wait a minute. You want to make this game a turn-based dice game?" Qing Zhiyuan confused them.

Pure DND mode?

Or are you talking about the battle rules you designed yourself?

"Um."

Breivik nodded and started operating the mouse.

By the way, this game was developed on the PC platform.

“All actions of the character, including combat, require judgment. For example, when fighting a monster, both parties determine the amount of damage and recovery based on the point difference between the dice rolls.

The stronger the skills you have, the greater the random numbers you can throw.

The greater the corresponding point difference, the higher the damage. "

Hiss...

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but take a breath of air.

This battle mode sounds quite interesting.

"The equipment dropped by monsters is also the same. Some equipment entries are specifically used to maximize points, but the skill mechanisms released by different characters through points are also different.

Sometimes small points are advantageous.

For example, the [Bloodthirsty Attack] we designed will take damage when the points are low, but it can strengthen the next attack, which means that the negative benefits will be positive.

But the key to whether it can achieve a strong enough effect lies in the player's build. If the skills and equipment are well constructed, the corresponding changes will be more.

In fact, we designed the battle mode around dice points throughout the whole process.

By continuously strengthening and acquiring equipment, you can even make monsters into your own skills. "

Nani? !

Hearing this, Qing Zhiyuan fell into deep silence.

This game...

Is it necessary to change to real-time?

Breivik is simply a genius designer.

"Wait a minute, if that's the case," Qing Zhiyuan quickly changed his words and corrected his mistake, "Please forgive me for my error in judgment. I made a categorical suggestion of making it real-time without knowing how to play your game. It's really It's so stupid.

In my opinion, this game mode that revolves around the changes in dice points is quite excellent. "

"Really?" Breivik and the two brothers looked at Qing Zhiyuan in disbelief.

In the past two days at the electronics show, I encountered too many criticisms from players. Qing Zhiyuan was the first person to give them such strong affirmation.

What's more, Qing Zhiyuan is still their idol.

The producer of Diablo, Qing Zhiyuan, is a well-deserved real-time game genius.

At least that's what a few people think.

And now this famous producer actually says that their game design is quite excellent.

Scarfo looked at each other and smiled happily.

"Qing, you don't know how much we admire and like you. It's so encouraging and touching to hear such positive praise from your mouth." Breivik said with a smile.

It can be seen from the ups and downs of his chest that this man is really excited.

However, in Qing Zhiyuan's view, as a copycat, he has nothing to be proud of.

What's more, I actually copied your game.

"You are well-deserved geniuses. Excellent game designers will not be buried by time." Qing Zhiyuan sighed.

Several people were even more moved.

What kind of pure and kind soul is this? As a famous producer, he can still be so humble and praise others...

It made everyone feel a little confident.

But the next second, Bulvik said with some embarrassment, "But it's such a pity, Qing, we may go bankrupt. Too much money has been invested in developing the game, much more than we imagined.

We are participating in the electronics show now just to see if there are any interested buyers willing to buy this game.

Being able to be bought by someone is a blessing for this game, but it probably has nothing to do with us. "

The founders looked at each other, and there was a hint of sadness in their expressions, which seemed to be true.

"The biggest possibility is that no one cares about it. It seems that everyone is not very interested in turn-based games in the DND mode. Such games may eventually just become the dust of history.

A game developed without funds may not even have a name in the history of gaming. "

Eh? !

Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment.

Is there such a good thing in the world? !

"Um..." Qing Zhiyuan hesitated and asked, "Mr. Bulvik, I appreciate your game, but I like your team even more.

Do you think this will work?

I'll pay for it. "

After hearing Qing Zhiyuan's words, a flash of astonishment flashed across several people's faces, followed by great joy.

Bulvik exchanged glances with the two brothers, and then exclaimed, "It would be great if pokeni bought this game."

"Yeah, yeah." Brother Scarfo nodded in agreement, "After listening to your speech just now, we can know that you are someone who really understands and loves games. If "Ashes of Eternity" can be developed by Pokeni If so, it should be this game and our luck.

We believe that your company can develop this game better. "

"No, no," Qing Zhiyuan waved his hands repeatedly and laughed, "That's not what I meant."

"I mean--"

He raised his palm and made an invitation gesture to several people.

"I hope to buy your company."

Eh? !

Several people were shocked, including Qing Zhiyuan's own operations director Kazuma Takahashi.

This is crazy...

After meeting and communicating for less than half an hour, the president was about to buy the other party's company.

Is the president crazy? !

No matter how you look at it, this company is very inconspicuous.

It's right to think about it. How could a well-run company be on the verge of bankruptcy? Maybe these people are telling the truth. Is the Omi region just not interested in the DND dice-throwing game?

Qing Zhiyuan gave him a look.

Is this a normal DND gameplay?

If we dig deeper into the gameplay, complete the game script, and create enough experience, it will be an epoch-making game product!

What's more, Qing Zhiyuan said that he wanted more than just a game.

What's more important is this team.

With Northern Blizzard, oh no, condor as a subsidiary, pokeni has a foothold in the United States.

base area.

In the future, a spark can start a prairie fire.

In fact, Qing Zhiyuan has already started planning the pokeni game territory in the United States, but he has not been able to find a suitable agent before.

Just like Sega hired Collinski in the United States, Qing Zhiyuan's candidate has always been an American who has management skills and can also play games, and loves and understands games.

Understand local rules, make things easier, and also understand American culture...

It is really rare to find such a president of an American branch.

Unexpectedly, I was so lucky to meet a condor today.

If this company can be taken over, it will be equivalent to eliminating the process of building a new building and it can be put into use immediately.

What's more, in Qing Zhiyuan's opinion, this "Ashes of Eternal Mark" is really a good game.

…

This time, everyone was shocked speechless.

The main reason is that the amount of information is too large and too sudden. If an ordinary person like Qing Zhiyuan came over and said that he wanted to buy the company, Bolvik and the others would probably think that this person was a liar.

But this is the Chicago Electronics Show.

Qing Zhiyuan is the real Qing Zhiyuan, the president of Neon Pokeni Company.

His words still hold considerable weight.

What’s even more terrible is——

They stared at Qing Zhiyuan for a long time, but they didn't see that he was joking.

Very true.

So true.

But it’s this seriousness that makes people feel scared.

"Buy our company?" Bulvik asked doubtfully, "Just for a game?"

"No, it's for the people who make games." Qing Zhiyuan laughed.

"It is you who give the game value. Behind a good game there must be a strong team. If I buy the game but not the team, it means I have no vision."

Qing Zhiyuan said seriously, "Let condor become part of pokeni. I promise that I will never interfere with the games you want to develop. The games will still be yours, and all research and development expenses will be borne by the parent company.

As long as you can make a good game, that's all. "

Nani? !

Kazuma Takahashi was stunned.

Crazy crazy.

The president is completely crazy!

It is unheard of to buy a company just because of a game. President, how did you see the potential of the other party?

Could this company become the next Square Enix?

It is impossible to tell whether a product is good or bad without market verification. Under such circumstances, the company that buys the other party also promises to give the other party autonomy. This is simply like playing a gashapon machine.

No.

Might as well be a gashapon machine.

At least the gashapon opportunities indicate the type and are guaranteed. Even if you can't get the gashapon you want, at least you won't lose money.

In the future, I can also exchange with other fans.

But for such an important matter as buying a company, what if the condor fails in the future? If it fails, it will be impossible for you to exchange it with others.

That is to say——

Once you buy a condor, you can only succeed, otherwise you will suffer a loss, President!

…

But Qing Zhiyuan turned a blind eye to the worry conveyed by Takahashi Kazuma, and just stared at the condors.

Both brothers Bulwick and Scarfo were silent.

I have to say that Qing Zhiyuan is really courageous.

and……

Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be done at the negotiation table or at a dinner party. It should be a slightly more formal occasion. Instead of being like this now, with players walking around, the place is noisy and filled with all kinds of noisy sounds.

But in such an atmosphere, several people were inexplicably moved.

“We need to go back and discuss this matter with our colleagues.” Bolvik did not give an answer on the spot, “Although I personally am very happy to be a member of the pokeni family.

But major issues in our company are decided by everyone voting together, so I’m really sorry. "

"Well, I understand, then I'm looking forward to your response."

If you agree too quickly, it will make both parties feel burdened, right?

Qing Zhiyuan attached the business card with both hands, which had pokeni's address and phone number in neon.

However, seeing the expressions on several people's faces, Qing Zhiyuan said that I was bound to win the condor company.

…
