Live Action Opens Up and Gets Blocked, Backhandedly Rectifying the Gaming Industry

It was a pity that Lin Mo did not witness the important moment of winning the championship.

Naughty Cat has an unexpected guest.

Fantasy Studios, the developer of "Armageddon".

This time the foreigner came to the door without sending an email to apply in advance. He just came to the door so suddenly and uninvited.

It took a long time to even confirm the identity, and the members of this studio have very little information in the media.

Lin Mo even thought he was a liar.

After confirming that everything is correct, communication begins.

"Excuse me, Mr. Edward, why do you come so far?"

After the translator relayed the words, Edward, a big man from Mao country, smiled and said a lot, which was then relayed by the translator. (omitted below)

"Mr. Lin, we are here with sincerity to discuss the exclusivity and agency distribution of the game."

Lin Mo raised his eyebrows, somewhat unexpectedly.

Except for China, most other major gaming countries are dominated by consoles. Occasionally, foreigners use PCs to play some games that are not available on consoles.

In those places, PC game login platforms are in full bloom, and it is even more common for each platform to have you and me.

Due to the popularity of CSGO in the European and American markets, the Origin platform has gradually become mainstream.

But with the level of attention "Doomsday" has received, is it necessary to deliberately negotiate for exclusivity?

Wouldn’t it be better to sell on multiple platforms?

Thinking back to the fact that this game does not seem to be logged into the console, I think there might be some problem.

Already having an idea in his mind, Lin Mo thought about it and decided to test it out first to confirm his guess.

"Mr. Edward, there is an old saying in our country that plain people don't speak secret words. You can make your request first."

Edward's acting skills are not superb, and the friendly smile on his face is fake at first sight.

"Mr. Lin should be familiar with our game "Doomsday". Its plot process is not too long, and the play time is about 3 hours."

Lin Mo nodded and signaled to continue.

Upon seeing this, Edward's smile became even bigger and he continued: "It is a new concept doomsday survival MMO shooting game mainly based on online games, and the plot battle plays the icing on the cake.

Your company's two-hour unconditional refund policy will seriously harm our interests, so I ask that the refund channel be closed on "Armageddon". "

Next, there are exclusivity fees and various detailed terms.

After talking for more than ten minutes, Edward picked up the water glass and moistened his throat, waiting for the next step.

I thought briefly for a few seconds.

"Okay, I can accept all of this." Lin Mo said without hesitation, but before the other party's smile became brighter, "But! I want to try the game demo first to ensure that it has the quality of the trailer."

The first trailer of the Doomsday Catastrophe was born a few years ago, before Lin Mo traveled to this world.

It can be said to have shocked the industry for a whole year.

This video marked with a real-machine demonstration surprised players and surprised game companies.

Excellent.

The smoothness of character movements is even smoother than that of the carefully polished Biochemical 4, and the facial expressions of the characters are so delicate that it feels like you are watching a real person.

Extremely realistic physical effects, explosive picture quality, and minimalist UI.

The gameplay also keeps players hooked.

A game that claims to be able to enter the interior of more than 100,000 buildings, and the interior settings are completely different.

In this huge city, players can choose any indoor building as a base.

You can also enter the house and loot it.

Of course, you may also encounter other players or mutated monsters in the house.

Players can cooperate with each other to kill monsters to obtain high-quality materials and a large amount of crystal currency.

But cooperating players may also instantly turn against each other and kill each other.

All the jungle, survival and cooperation, combat and construction are all integrated into one city.

All of this is a "real machine" demonstration!

And the real-machine demonstration is not without problems, such as frame drops, mold crossing, and occasional material blurring.

It looks very much like a game being polished.

It’s not like no one has questioned it. Many people say that such a production team does not exist.

How can any fledgling game company create such a big pie?

Someone else said it next.

Naughty cat!

CSGO to Left 4 Dead to Resident Evil.

Can there be Naughty but not Fantasy Studio? Why?

But now when the head of Naughty Cat asked to try the demo, Edward's expression became a little unnatural.

"Mr. Lin, as you know, the game is still in the polishing stage. It will be officially unveiled in August. The current development process is confidential."

"You can sign a confidentiality agreement." Lin Mo interrupted him, "If there is any leakage, Naughty Cat will bear all legal responsibilities."

"Sorry, Mr. Lin, I cannot agree to your request." Edward also refused forcefully, "I am a very perfectionist person, and I cannot accept an unfinished game to meet any player."

"Really?" Lin Mo sighed, "Then Mr. Edward, I'm sorry, it seems we can't reach cooperation."

Edward was anxious, you should be bargaining!

"Mr. Lin, you can make concessions on the exclusive fee, but the two-hour unconditional refund must be closed for "Doomsday"."

"Sorry, I cannot agree to this request. There is no room for negotiation."

With that said, Lin Mo was about to see off the guests.

Edward's face was extremely ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Lin, you have to know that I come to you with enough sincerity. You are not the only game platform on the PC platform. In China alone, there are game boxes and Beacon. There is also StopGame in China.”

Because European and American players prefer to play on consoles, there is a gaming and entertainment software retail giant like StopGame. It also has online sales channels, but it has been tepid in recent years.

Lin Mo nodded lightly and said two words: "Please do."

With that said, Edward angrily left Naughty Cat with his translator, heading towards another destination of the trip.

On the way back to Lin Mo's office, Du Rui asked worriedly: "Mr. Lin, the talks have collapsed? Will it appear that our platform has become arrogant just after it has grown?"

"Even if "Doomsday" is logged into the Origin platform, I have to prepare special refund channels in advance. This game is most likely a scam."

"Like "City of the Dead"?"

"The problems of "City of Zombies" are the short game flow, weak AI, zzzq's ugly characters, and the collapse of plot characters, but the game itself's combat system still has a certain degree of playability."

"What about this "Doomsday Catastrophe"?"

"This may be a complete scam."

A few hours later.

Today at the Game Box headquarters, the reception room is brightly lit.

Zhou Wei stood up with a smile on his face, shook hands with the Maoist standing opposite and said, "Well, Mr. Edward, I hope our cooperation goes smoothly."

Translated by a translator.

A smile finally appeared on Edward's face, and his hands were held tightly together.

"Mr. Zhou, you are different from other gamers in China. You are a polite gentleman."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"That Lin from Naughty Cat is just disrespectful and rude."
