The Creator of the Second Dimension

The quality of the game is excellent, the word-of-mouth of the players is exploding, and the major media have praised it.

The combination of these factors made "Breath of the Wild" become the sales king as soon as it was released.

In the first week of its release, the sales volume of the game directly exceeded 10 million. As of the end of June, "Breath of the Wild" had sold more than 15 million copies. This figure has almost locked in the top spot of this year's sales list in advance, and there is even a chance Entered the forefront of the game sales list throughout the year.

In the first half a month, the anchors in the live broadcast area of ​​Hatsune Video Network almost all broadcast "Breath of the Wild".

Although the same game is broadcast, the focus of each anchor is different.

Some anchors are known as the "God of Wilderness". They specialize in collecting all kinds of strange and weird ingredients on the continent of Hailar, cooking them in various ratios, and even cooking "indescribable food". Mosaic dishes.

Some anchors have completed this game as a skateboard simulator, all because when equipped with a shield, you can use a combination of keys to step on the shield on the ground. If you are on a high slope at this time, you can slide down the slope .

Therefore, finding high slopes has become the ultimate pursuit of the anchor. He tried to slide down the high slopes of various tracks from various angles, and earned the title of "Skateboarding King".

There are also anchors who study the puzzles of various temples.

After trying to solve the puzzles of dozens of temples, in order to complete the collection, most of the players will search for some strategies on the Internet to check for gaps, and the video strategies of Hatsune Video Network are the most popular. After all, the puzzle-solving methods in the game need to be manipulated. , It is difficult to describe clearly with simple words, and the video guide is simple and easy to understand.

After seeing other people's video guides, many players suddenly realized, "Hey, why is the way I unlock this temple different from the video?"

Then, many people discovered that most of the temples have more than one solution. Through the combination and matching of four kinds of abilities and mechanisms, various tricks can be used to pass the level.

Therefore, some anchors simply tried to use different routines to solve puzzles, and many viewers exclaimed in the live broadcast room, "Fuck, there is still such an operation"?

In fact, as an absolute stand-alone game, the social attributes of "Breath of the Wild" are very weak. A player can completely clear the main story without communicating with anyone, and the game is closed.

Even if such a game is excellent, the enthusiasm can only last for a while, and the discussion will gradually calm down.

Just like if "The Last Survivor" does not have the blessing of multiplayer online mode, it is estimated that it will only be popular for a while, and eventually it will become the memory of players like other excellent game works instead of continuing to be a global hit like it is today.

Xu Rui was naturally aware of this and took many measures.

The first is the live broadcast activities related to the live broadcast area. In addition to the normal live broadcast, since there are many small games in the game itself, there are also competitions for small games such as gliding competitions, snowball competitions, etc. to keep players fresh.

Secondly, the complex and diverse content of "Breath of the Wild" itself has been implemented in the community of Hatsune Video Network, resulting in long-term and continuous discussions. Various customs clearance methods and various hidden elements are enough for people to spend hundreds of hours on it The game time without realizing it.

In the end, the previous methods are only external. If the game does not have continuous updates and iterative content, it will eventually get tired of playing.

Therefore, after the game was released, the development department of Hatsune Games did not relax, but stepped up and invested in the development of DLC.

Among them, the plot DLC, the main plot of the expansion piece "Poetry of Heroes" about the four heroes who previously controlled the four beasts has already been completed here, and the development department is in the process of production. In addition to the plot, this DLC adds The challenge of the new temple and boss is a complementary DLC.

The other DLC "Trial of the Sword" is a gameplay DLC, which opens up a master mode with higher difficulty, and adds a trial field for players to challenge. If they pass it successfully, they can strengthen their weapons.

Apart from these two DLCs under development, Xu Rui also prepared a third DLC.

In the office building of Hatsune Games, in the development department, Holofer is confirming the screen on a computer.

This screen is somewhat similar to the working interface of 3D software, but it is relatively simpler. On the right side of the screen, there are several different structures to choose from.

In addition to simple stairs, doors, guardrails, waterfalls, ropes, huge stone balls, etc., it seems to be the appearance of various organs in "Breath of the Wild".

Holofer quickly completed a basic level by clicking, dragging and other operations.

It looks like a level editor for Breath of the Wild.

But the real level editor is not that simple. The interface Holofer is using is actually a packaged and simplified level editor. Xu Rui calls it the temple editor, which can only build temples. level.

This temple editor was previously produced by the development department to collect temple inspiration in the Hatsune game. Anyone can use this editor to create a temple in "Breath of the Wild" as long as they learn simple and basic operations. Come.

As for Holofer, of course it is not making a new level of "Breath of the Wild" now, but to confirm the operation and actual use of this editor.

Because according to Xu Rui's idea, this temple editor will be open to players.

This is the third DLC of "Breath of the Wild", which Xu Rui named "Made in the Wild".

As long as you get this DLC, you can directly enter the editing mode in the game, design the temple level, and upload it to the server.

Other players can enter a temple called "Unknown Temple" in a new area of ​​the map, where they can browse and challenge the temples created by other players, and after the challenge, they can also Likes and comments, temples that get more likes will be displayed first.

Unlike the first two DLCs, the "Made in the Wild" DLC will be completely free!

As a pure stand-alone game, the social elements of "Breath of the Wild" flow on social platforms and game communities, but "Made in the Wild" can create player interaction in the game, and at the same time, it can also absorb players' creativity, after all The 120 temples in "Breath of the Wild" are just the thinking crystallization of Hatsune game designers, and the brain holes of millions of players are the truly infinite treasure house.

After unlocking all the temples, players who like challenges can continue to challenge other players' new temples, while players who like design can turn their imaginations into reality through this editor. These two kinds of players The interaction will form a virtuous circle, promoting the continuous popularity of "Breath of the Wild".
