Number One Game Designer

"I didn't expect Hongyi officials to directly intervene."

"Hey, it's so boring. I thought I would be able to play high-intensity laning for a few days."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that the brother who was still in line with me just now is now in prison. It's really an impermanent world."

Under the official website of "Extraordinary Motorsport", a group of people are like veterans who have cleaned the battlefield and watched the setting sun in the distance leisurely but sadly, expressing their sighs for this invisible war.

Until someone posted here "Editor Shuiran released news about Hongyi's new game!"

A group of veterans turned into anxious monkeys:

"Who is Shuiran?"

"Hong Yi will have new games this year?"

"Aren't you stupid, Hong Yi's carnival this year is the main dish, and they will have a new game finale 100% then!"

"I went to see it. Shuiran is the editor of "Game World". She seems to have obtained the evaluation of Hongyi's new game!"

"Come to a portal, let's go and see together!"

"Go together!"

...

If "Racing Racing" and "Borderland" are just appetizers, then "Octopath Traveler" must be a main course or even a finale.

This is not to say that in Fang Xi's mind, the racing game and the gun game are not as good as the "Bafang" game, but because each has its own unique reasons.

As Fang Xi and Chen Yu said about "Extraordinary Racing", Fang Xi carefully considered it when the project was first established. This game definitely has the potential to become the next "Eternal". It has enough viewing and confrontation. And it is full of a lot of luxury cars, these are the most effective stimulants for men, so Fang Xi does not need to announce it at the carnival, because this kind of e-sports game requires a long time Exposure requires the accumulated heat of a long stream of water, and it does not happen overnight.

"Borderless Land" is a bit simpler, because the script of this game was first sold by Fang Xi. Propaganda, according to Fang Xi's prediction, it will have to wait until the second part of this wasteland game.

So among them, "Octopath Traveler" is a perfect choice.

First of all, it is a royal RPG game. Although it is slightly different from traditional rpg, anyone who has played the game cannot deny that this game is indeed an rpg. In a sense, this can help Hongyi reverse its image. Thanks to the destruction and reshaping of the game market before, many people call Hongyi the "rpg destroyer", saying that it is because of this company that the current status of rpg games has plummeted, from the previous kingly game type to the current one. The "old stuff".

Secondly, the art style of this game is very delicate. The pure hand-painted art in the game is the greatest sincerity of this game, and then nostalgia and innovation are cleverly combined. This is a game that can make old players sigh nostalgia and arouse the interest of new players. a game.

Players who like it will definitely praise it to the altar, and players who don't like it can't deny its artistic value. It can't satisfy everyone with this game, but it can make everyone say nothing bad about this game.

So after Shao Qiulin sent him the demo version of the game, he simply packaged it and then sent it to the headquarters of ign and "GAME World". In the letter he sent, Fang Xi wrote clearly: I hope the two media Ability to evaluate games in advance.

The subtext speaks for itself: use these to start building momentum for this game!

Nominally, this is to score the game, but in the end, this score may be the least important thing. What is important is the publicity and promotion in the process.

So Shuiran announced the news directly on his personal Weibo:

"I received an invitation to review Hongyi's new game today, and I am very excited. Fans, please stay tuned.

We will arrange a comprehensive evaluation of the game as soon as possible, and the score of the game will be released within this week. "

It was a very formulaic piece of news, but on this day when Hongyi's fans were a little restless, it successfully caused an uproar.

According to the simple speculation of the release time, many people guessed it directly. According to this time, the game will probably not be released until after the carnival!

But this makes people even more curious. A game that Fang Xi will carefully put on the carnival is enough to show that he values ​​this game. Doesn't it mean that Fang Xi thinks this game is better than the recently released "Extraordinary Racing" and Is Borderlands more fun?

Fans of passers-by are eagerly waiting, but it is the new fans of these two who are the first to complain about their favorite games. In their opinion, "Extraordinary Racing" and "Borderland" are good enough, but there are still games After the official certification of the producer, do you think it will be more fun than these two games? So what kind of game is this?

That's how curiosity is aroused.

Inside "GAME World", there is only Shuiran in Shuiran's office.

Generally speaking, it's not her turn to be the editor-in-chief to play and evaluate a new game. It's not just because of her position, and it's not within her purview.

But there is no way, this is the first time that Fang Xi sent the game over for evaluation before the game was released. It is really frustrating to say this fact, but the fact is that Fang Xi may be the least dependent on their traditional media among the current game companies producer.

He has his own professional game platform, and the Honghu platform also includes forum functions, so every time Fang Xi announces in advance, and then directly lets the game land on the Honghu platform, many of Fang Xi's personal fans will come out of Fang Xi. Buy directly with the trust of the players, and then the players will spread the word of mouth, and spread the word of mouth rapidly with a viral trend.

This is a very hard-core propaganda method, and it is also a method that only Fang Xi can use.

So after Fang Xi sent a demo version for her to test this time, Shuiran completely ignored the eager eyes of the evaluation department and took the game directly to her office.

There are not many modern computers with optical drives, so it is called a box, but it is only the size of a palm, like a box containing cosmetics such as perfume. After rubbing it twice, it has a frosted feel, and the workmanship is very good.

Although she is not a professional tester, she still has the basic qualities of Shuiran. She put down the box, then found a tripod that had not been used for a long time from the cabinet, and then put the camera on it. She planned to do a basic development first. box video.

I dare not say about the evaluation, but when it comes to unpacking, every woman is a professional!
