Chapter 535 I can even marry into your family!
The new mobile phone project of Youmei has officially entered the trial production stage.
Lin Yao took some time to visit Youmei.
She stayed for about a day.
Of course, she was just there to take a look... and to put a name on it so that the whole project would not have decisive difficulties.
After she tested the first mobile phone and confirmed that there were no major problems, she went back.
Every profession has its own expertise.
When it came to the production stage, she could hardly help.
Instead of wasting time at Youmei,
it would be better to go back and think about the next development plan of the console product department of Linmu Studio.
Yes.
Lin Yao is still considering what the console product department should do next.
Putting aside the original trial works.
The console product department will start preparing for next year's works.
At present, due to the limitation of the function of Switch, first-party masterpieces are still the most attractive point for players to buy.
As for games, there will probably be another round of chaos next year.
Consoles, mobile phones, PCs.
The Switch, which is inserted in the middle, must have some games that are different from any other platform to maintain its competitiveness.
And this kind of game can only be made by Linmu Studio, the first party.
After Lin Yao returned, she thought about it carefully for a long time.
Finally, two games were decided.
"Super Mario: Odyssey" and... "New Friends".
What can I say about these two games.
They are all series IPs.
In Lin Yao's previous life, the reason why these two games have achieved such great success, if you say there is no historical sentiment bonus, that is definitely a lie.
After all, Nintendo has been established for too long, and any IP under its umbrella can be traced back to the FC era.
Especially the former Mario.
This is even more of Nintendo's facade IP.
If we really talk about influence, Zelda is not as good as Mario.
There is such a saying.
Nintendo's IP.
Mario is responsible for opening up new territories and trying various new game types. The underlying logic is to ensure high quality and high sales through the main works, and the non-staff works continue to break the circle and increase the popularity of the IP.
The Zelda series, on the other hand, continues to break through the upper limit of exploration games, representing the highest production level of Nintendo, which is to create a good reputation to increase the sales of hardware.
As for making money... Pokémon is responsible for it...
This is also the reason why Lin Yao did not choose "Super Mario: Odyssey" as the escort masterpiece.
Because without the bonus of historical sentiment.
A "Legend of Zelda" that is not suitable for all ages, tends to be hardcore, and takes the open world gameplay to a new level is indeed easier to attract potential players and users.
But the situation is a little different now.
The main reason is that the current Linmu Studio's Switch is not like the beginning, when only "hardcore players" or "players who have played many games" would buy it.
The first generation of Mario was ported to the Switch, and "Mario Kart" was a great success. During this period, Linmu Studio also launched a "Mario Party"...
After this set of operations.
After the image of Mario appeared in the summer special promotion, it frequently appeared in the sight of players...
Even now there are players complaining that Linmu Studio likes this image too much...
And thanks to the growing reputation of Linmu Studio, the Mario IP is now indeed well-known.
Of course.
It is definitely not comparable to Lin Yao's previous life.
After all, a group of players have been playing Super Mario since childhood, and have been playing it all the way.
How can the influence accumulated over time be caught up in just a few years?
But it is easy to do if it is well-known.
In addition.
Even if we put aside the influence of the Mario IP and the sentimental bonus, and just look at the game itself, the game "Super Mario: Odyssey" is really excellent...
It can be said that this is the pinnacle of the sandbox exploration game!
No one else!
In this game, the most important role of sentiment is that when players are impressed by the exquisite design of the game and feel pure happiness, there are suddenly some levels or details that can evoke memories.
For example, the celebration link of the city country... This is really a killer, which directly makes players say the same words as the spray god - the world dominates!
After the release of "Super Mario Odyssey", it has such high sales and such a high influence, which cannot be summarized by sentiment.
The game itself is not good, only sentiment.
TGA back then did not have a two-hero competition.
If it wasn’t released in the same year as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild…Super Mario Odyssey would undoubtedly be the best game of the year!
Even at the awards ceremony, when the audience put on red hats, most players assumed that the game of the year must be Super Mario Odyssey!
So after thinking about it, Lin Yao still felt that Super Mario Odyssey was the most suitable game to keep the Switch competitive in the future.
The ultimate sandbox level design.
Dedicated to the fun of the game itself.
This game is different from traditional console games, different from traditional mobile games, and different from traditional online games.
It can only be played on Switch.
This is competitiveness!
As for "Animal Crossing"...
this game is quite special.
The type is business development.
But it is very different from ordinary business development.
Leisurely, utopian, high degree of freedom, social, Buddhist, boring.
These are all correct evaluations.
If players cannot get happiness from leisure gameplay such as building islands and cultivating flowers.
Then this game is most likely not suitable.
But if players can stop, let go of their obsessions, and adapt to the setting of synchronizing with the real world time, they can really feel the beauty of simplicity.
If Lin Yao were to talk about the feeling of playing this game, it would probably be spiritual comfort.
After being in a cage for a long time, I can return to nature.
A small piece of pure land in the busy life.
Of course.
Whether you like a game... is a very subjective thing.
Even if it is a well-known game, there are people who don't like it. Even if it is a shit game in the mouths of most people, there are people who enjoy playing it...
So her feelings cannot be taken as the standard.
And for this game, Lin Yao is indeed not as confident as "Super Mario: Odyssey".
Because for this game, it is really difficult to summarize even a specific attractive point.
But on the other hand, Lin Yao was very sure.
There must be an audience for this kind of game.
And this game, like "Super Mario: Odyssey", is also very suitable for the Switch as a carrier.
After all, the performance of Switch is more powerful than that of mobile phones and more convenient than traditional consoles.
So after hesitating for a while, she decided to make this game!
Soon.
With the two games confirmed.
Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then she started to write the plan without stopping.
Well...
Actually, the plan is okay.
The problem is the level design.
The positions of the 999 moons in "Super Mario: Odyssey", the three-dimensional and exquisite box garden map... These can only be done by her, if there is no completion mechanism, or if there is no system.
Lin Yao really doesn't think she can do it...
Even with these help.
She feels that the road is long and arduous...
...
In the next few days.
Inside Linmu Studio.
The joy brought by the success of "World of Warcraft" slowly dissipated.
The staff gradually regained their calm and continued to do what they had to do.
Of course, the outside was not so calm.
During this period, "World of Warcraft" is still the most popular game, and related topics can be seen everywhere.
Players are also willing to discuss it.
Because as time goes by, more copies, more stories, more equipment, and more details of this game are dug out by players.
Every day, there are different topics... endless topics.
The strong social attributes of online games also make players willing to discuss.
However.
Lin Yao herself did not pay much attention.
In the past few days, she has devoted all her thoughts to the planning of the two games.
As soon as she came to the studio, she began to write and draw pictures day and night.
Almost nothing else.
Time passed peacefully.
On the sixth day.
Lin Yao finally triggered the completion mechanism and completely finished the planning of the two games.
She sorted out the planning draft and the drawings, and after making sure that there was no omission, she took the planning book to the host product department without stopping, and gave the planning book to the person in charge, Zhu Nianqiao.
"This is the development plan for the host department next, work hard."
Lin Yao was a little depressed, and after handing the planning book to Zhu Nianqiao, whose eyes seemed to be glowing, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay~"
Zhu Nianqiao nodded vigorously, still full of energy.
In addition, she also changed her hairstyle today... She tied her long hair into two naturally hanging ponytails.
She was originally very cute and had a good figure, exquisite and well-proportioned, with beautiful streamlines... With the ponytails, she really had a royal cuteness.
Especially when she nodded, the ponytails swayed gently.
She felt like a monkey.
Lin Yao looked at her and felt a little better.
But she couldn't look at her for long.
Zhu Nianqiao suddenly raised her head and complained in a low voice: "Senior sister, why is it this plumber uncle again?"
Hearing her say the word "uncle" with special emphasis.
Lin Yao said with some amusement: "What's wrong? What's wrong with the uncle? Why do you look so disgusted? Did the uncle offend you?"
"The uncle didn't offend me."
Zhu Nianqiao stretched out her index finger and shook it gently in front of Lin Yao, then said cutely: "But the problem is that the plan was written by the senior sister... and this uncle appeared too many times. It seems that all the games on the console are related to him. I can't help but doubt whether the senior sister likes the uncle..."
"As for games, I guess everyone will like this plumber uncle in the future, including me of course."
Lin Yao gently shook her high ponytail, and then said confidently: "But in reality, I like beautiful girls!"
"..."
Zhu Nianqiao was silent for a moment after hearing that, then leaned forward slightly: "Then do I count? Senior! Do you like me!?"
She looked expectant.
Expecting the expected answer.
The desire for praise was evident in her words.
"If you're talking about beautiful girls."
Lin Yao looked at the energetic girl in front of her: "You count, but forget about liking me..."
"Why? Why forget about it!" Zhu Nianqiao waved her little arms.
"A little stupid, if it's a tsundere, I can still tolerate it."
Lin Yao gently patted Zhu Nianqiao's small round shoulders, and said regretfully: "But it's a pity that the personality is not right."
"!!!"
Zhu Nianqiao directly stuffed the plan in her hand back into Lin Yao's arms!
Then waited for Lin Yao to take it subconsciously.
Suddenly, a bull rushed, opened his hands, and hugged Lin Yao's waist.
"Senior! I'm going to crush you to death!"
Zhu Nianqiao screamed, as if he wanted to strangle Lin Yao to death.
"I want a tsundere! Tsundere! Not a yandere! Let go!"
Lin Yao held up the plan and looked at the little head at her chin, anxious and angry.
She was forcing it!
"No!" Zhu Nianqiao said firmly.
Lin Yao immediately grabbed the tip of Zhu Nianqiao's ear and exerted a little force.
"I'll let go later..." Zhu Nianqiao was still firm.
Soon.
Because of the fight between the two.
The eyes of the entire host department were attracted.
They looked at Lin Yao and Zhu Nianqiao.
Then they all showed an aunt-like smile...
...
Although some minor episodes happened.
But in the end, Lin Yao successfully gave the plan to Zhu Nianqiao.
And the host product department started to operate again...
After Lin Yao settled the next development plan of the host product department, she turned around and went to work on the CG movie.
She had to find a suitable cooperative company.
In addition, she had to talk to Gibber Company and Dreamland about the game's re-entry on the Vaporwave game platform...
Quite busy.
And the player side.
The last game announced by the Linmu Carnival, "World of Warcraft", is still killing people...
Although the game has been in public beta for a long time, and players have been discussing the game for a month, the popularity has decreased.
But even so, the discussion of this game is still high... much higher than other games.
There is no way.
As the player level increases.
The clearance list of advanced dungeons is released.
Players have a new topic.
That is speed racing!
The dungeon speed racing of the top overseas and domestic guilds!
However.
Just when the top guilds at home and abroad are in full swing, preparing to grab the first pass of Molten Core and dying in the dungeon.
A small piece of news came out, which directly attracted the attention of all domestic players...
This small news is that a certain rich list has been announced...
Originally, not many players pay attention to this kind of list, after all, it is not their own money.
Looking at this list, it is better to pay attention to the game list!
But.
Good or bad...
"World of Warcraft" has been in the limelight recently... The media is paying attention, and then Lin Yao appeared on the list for the first time, and the ranking is very high.
This... a wealthy, unmarried, female man in his 20s, is related to the recent phenomenal game that broke the circle, and the most important thing is - she is also very beautiful!
If this is not called a gimmick, what is a gimmick?
If this is not reported, what is reported?
Therefore, the relevant reports came out quickly.
As soon as the report article came out, it was reposted crazily...
Many players who were originally looking at the game copy list all ran to look at the real rich list, and soon, the players saw that familiar name...
Lin Yao, who appeared on the list for the first time, was directly ranked 33rd.
Fortune 39.1... billion.
I don’t know how the magazine calculated this number.
Lin Yao herself actually doesn’t know if it is right or not. The only reference she can have for the current value of Linmu Studio is probably Gabe Newell in her previous life, whose net worth seems to be 5.5 billion US dollars.
But it doesn’t matter if Lin Yao doesn’t know whether it is right or not.
Anyway, the list dares to say it, and the players dare to believe it...
They see this number and this ranking.
Finally, take a look at Lin Yao’s beautiful picture at the carnival.
Really.
In an instant... the pupils began to shake wildly!
Damn it!!!
In addition, it just so happens that... it's
really just a coincidence.
This year's list of the richest people compiled by a certain magazine was just restructured and released ahead of schedule.
Then.
During this period, Lin Yao just reached an agreement with Gibber and Dreamland, two companies that were stabbing each other in the back.
After these two companies made huge concessions,
the staff of Linmu Studio's marketing department felt that it was necessary to announce this news, and the two heads also requested it.
So Lin Yao chose the same day to announce this news on the Vaporwave game platform...
[Games under Gibber and Dreamland will be re-launched on the Vaporwave game platform! ]
The homepage of the Vaporwave game platform.
This line of words.
Coupled with the impact of the list.
Let all the players who saw it.
The pupils were shocked even more!
Completely crazy...
After all, not long ago, Game player just issued an announcement saying that its games would never be launched on the Vaporwave game platform.
That tone was so resolute!
How long has it been?
Is Linmu Studio going to unify the game platform?
Or is it because of something else?
Lin Yao's charm?
The power of money?
And when this news was spread...
less than an hour later,
an online media took advantage of the hot topic and published an article, starting to introduce Lin Yao under the name of in-depth digging.
But because Lin Yao was too young, there were only so many things she could say… So in order to look more professional, they suddenly changed the subject in the second half of the article and began to discuss whether the unlisted company Linmu Studio was worth 39.1 billion.
Then, they talked a lot at length.
In the end, they came to the conclusion that
the numbers on the list were still too conservative…
After all, the Vaporwave gaming platform had a troublesome rival before, but now the rival has surrendered to the enemy.
So the value of Linmu Studio should be higher!
In short, Lin Yao may be richer than imagined!
And this report was quickly reposted to the player community.
Then in less than five minutes.
A post with nearly 30,000 replies quickly rushed to the front page...
[Lin Yao!! Wife!! Rich woman!! Hungry!! I can!! I can even marry into your family!! ! ! ! ! ! ]
Sorry... There were too many things to do after the holiday, and I got off work late...
