Chapter 666 What are you waiting for?
Linmu Studio.
Assassin's Creed project team.
"After jumping down from such a high, there is only a pile of broken hay, but he can actually climb up in one go. It's so magical."
Zhong Xiu looked at Lin Yao and joked, "Although this is indeed quite handsome."
Lin Yao coughed dryly when he heard this, then straightened his expression and said seriously, "Because they are like eagles and can experience true freedom. When they jump down without hesitation, the feeling of falling is like flying to them..."
Zhong Xiu saw Lin Yao reciting words that had nothing to do with him seriously, and he couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect you to be so childish."
"What do you mean by childish? I'm going to explain this to you."
Lin Yao glared at her: "And don't tell me you don't know what this thing is for."
Zhong Xiu hesitated for a moment, and replied, "It saves players unnecessary time to climb down the building."
"That's it."
Lin Yao smiled, and then continued, "Of course there is another reason. This is to show that the assassins have strong beliefs and the spirit of letting go and jumping down. It is equivalent to deifying the protagonist to some extent."
"Assassin's Creed" has had the tradition of opening the map from a bird's-eye view since the first generation.
Simply put, it is to control the character to climb to the highest point, and then overlook the entire game map.
At this time, letting the player climb up, appreciate the city scenery, and then let them climb down, it is a bit too slow.
The leap of faith perfectly solves this problem.
Not only is it cool.
It can also make the player's heart beat faster!
"Mythology..."
Zhong Xiu seemed to be touched and slightly absent-minded when he heard Lin Yao's words.
Lin Yao smiled and did not disturb him.
This time, the "Assassin's Creed" work made by Linmu Studio is the first work in the series of Lin Yao's previous life.
And what about this one?
If you look at it from her perspective before crossing, this is already an old game that can't keep up with the times.
After all, when this game came out, the next-generation consoles were still PS3 and xbox 360.
If you look at it from the perspective of later aesthetics, this game is definitely not up to date.
What's more.
The second orthodox sequel of this series is "Assassin's Creed 2" with Ezio as the protagonist.
Ezio, the protagonist, can be said to be the most impressive character in the Assassin's Creed series.
Because Ubisoft directly used three works to briefly describe the story of Ezio's youth, middle age and old age.
No other character has such treatment in the future.
What's more, although "Assassin's Creed 1" was amazing as the first work, it also had many problems. In the second generation with Ezio as the protagonist, many problems were modified, and the gameplay was more perfect.
A good story plus a gradually mature gameplay.
The Ezio trilogy is certainly more impressive to players than the first work of "Assassin's Creed" in terms of popularity.
In Lin Yao's previous life, every time she watched the recommended entry video of the Assassin's Creed series, most people recommended the second generation, which is the sequel with Ezio as the protagonist.
Instead of the first work of this series.
I have to say that this is indeed a bit embarrassing.
However.
Lin Yao considered it for a long time, and finally did not make "Assassin's Creed 2".
Although compared with the first generation, the second generation is indeed more suitable for reset.
But without Altaïr, she always felt that something was missing, and not only the historical plot would have some problems, but also the modern plot would have some problems.
Moreover, as the first game, although Assassin's Creed has many problems caused by the limitations of the times, the framework it designed for the entire series has almost been continued to all subsequent Assassin's Creed games.
Although it has been modified a lot.
But the spiritual soul of Altaïr, the assassin mentor, seems to still influence each generation of new assassins.
This is very suitable as a first game.
As for the problems of the first generation of Assassin's Creed, Linmu Studio can also change them.
For example, Altaïr, the assassin master, can't swim, and he will bump into passers-by and fall down... Of
course, in addition to the above reasons, she chose to make the first generation of "Assassin's Creed". There is another important reason, that is, during this period of time when Lin Yao decided to take a break, she also wanted to leave some "legacy" to the staff of Linmu Studio...
If one day, Linmu Studio really fails one game after another, and even loses confidence, then it will be troublesome.
Ezio Trilogy is equivalent to insurance.
Just like other insurance.
If it doesn't work, you can also let the staff find confidence.
"Lin Yao."
At this time.
Zhong Xiu's voice awakened Lin Yao who was in a trance.
Lin Yao then realized that she had thought so far ahead. She laughed at herself and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhong Xiu was a little worried: "A more realistic question, the game involves historical elements again, will it encounter the same problem as Di Renjie before?"
"It's not a big problem. Even if there is such a problem, our size is different now. We can completely ignore these voices, not to mention."
Lin Yao suddenly laughed and pointed to her face: "I'm mature too. I won't go and scold people anymore. After all, it's the players who play the game. As long as we don't get involved, it's destined not to cause much trouble, although there are many people staring at us."
Zhong Xiu explained awkwardly: "That's not what I meant."
"I know."
Lin Yao shook her head and explained, "But order and freedom, the collision between history and reality is one of the selling points of this game, and history is the most important core of this game. After all, history has too much room for imagination... From pharaohs and berserkers to wealthy merchants and pirates, and even slaves.
These characters can be integrated into the game with historical cores. We can't be afraid to move forward because of the previous historical themes. There is no benefit. As long as it is not a matter of principle, just stand at attention and take a beating and then change it."
"I understand..."
Zhong Xiu stretched out his index finger and scratched his head, then asked, "By the way, where did you hide the Easter eggs of "Super Smash Bros." and "Ready Player One"?"
"Of course it's the modern plot part."
Lin Yao smiled and said, "As for where it is hidden specifically, you can play it yourself and see if you can find it."
After that, she waved her hand and left.
"..."
Zhong Xiu looked back at the game on the staff's computer, and then watched Lin Yao go away. In fact, his mood was quite complicated.
On the one hand.
He also wanted to see the last two plans come out, and he liked the "Love Letter" plan that was being promoted from the bottom of his heart.
Because in the final analysis, Zhong Xiu is actually also a traditional gamer.
But on the other hand, he also knows that once the last two plans are released, it probably means that Lin Yao will temporarily leave the production line.
This has to be said to be a very difficult fact to accept.
He and Zhu Nianqiao have known Lin Yao for a long time, only later than Mu Wanqing.
Even ordinary good colleagues have worked together for so many years and have feelings for each other, not to mention someone like Lin Yao. There
may not be such a producer in the future...
Zhong Xiu thought of this and smiled and shook his head.
...
On the other side.
After Lin Yao left the "Assassin's Creed" production team, she came to Qi Jianhua's department and asked about the progress of the promotional video.
Qi Jianhua's side was quite smooth.
There were not too many problems.
Lin Yao felt relieved after watching it once.
However, Qi Jianhua seemed to have something to say and was not in a hurry to let Lin Yao go.
He turned his head to look at Lin Yao, and then said excitedly: "A man in white disappeared in the center of the monks, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, this is too cool! How about adding Altair to "Ready Player One"!"
Lin Yao was a little speechless: "Don't add everything in, don't you feel tired?"
This is not a joke, a fleeting shot, the workload is amazing.
After all, this is a full CG movie.
"I don't mind! I think I can still grind!" Qi Jianhua answered instantly.
"I'm tired, okay."
Lin Yao said helplessly: "Every time a new character is added, there are too many things that affect it."
"Uh..." Qi Jianhua couldn't say any more.
"However."
Lin Yao changed the subject: "During this period, all the game characters of the 'Love Letter Project' appeared in the promotional video of "Ready Player One". I think it will be very interesting. I will consider whether I can change the storyboard and the characters."
After hearing the second half of Lin Yao's words, Qi Jianhua sat up in shock from his dying illness and immediately said: "Yes! That's what I wanted to say! Is there anything more handsome than this?"
Lin Yao said with a smile: "Okay, don't force yourself too much, don't send yourself away with a project."
"How is it possible? I feel full of energy now!"
Lin Yao didn't say anything else, just waved and said goodbye to Qi Jianhua again.
Qi Jianhua watched Lin Yao go away, smiled, and then returned to work.
Lin Yao walked back to her office while thinking about Qi Jianhua's proposal.
Then she started to consider the feasibility without stopping.
Of course.
Before entering work.
She went to the forum as usual.
"Left 4 Dead" has been on sale for three weeks, and the popularity has indeed dropped a lot. Although it is still very popular and there are many people online, it has returned to calm.
After all, most players have already figured out this game.
For ordinary games, there are not so many off-site topics. When most of the game content has been discussed, as long as the game has not been updated on a large scale and the players have not encountered anything too interesting, there will be no large-scale discussion.
This is normal.
Players have already started to talk about whether the number of traditional games will decrease at the upcoming Linmu Studio E-sports Festival.
After all, "Left 4 Dead" is now on sale.
Seeing the discussion of the players, Lin Yao couldn't help but smile.
Are you still worried about the reduction?
Since Linmu Studio dared to release "Left 4 Dead" at the time node before the E-sports Festival, of course there is no shortage of games.
The second game is coming.
I just don't know if you like it...
Although "Assassin's Creed" made by Linmu Studio is a complete remake, it is not the most classic stealth gameplay, but in the final analysis, the overall framework of this game is definitely impossible to change.
Otherwise, it will not be Assassin's Creed.
Linmu Studio has launched so many games, and the aesthetics of users are constantly improving. Can current users still accept "Assassin's Creed"?
This is not a game like "Left 4 Dead" that combines coolness and excitement.
This game was greatly influenced by popular games at the time.
Most of the popular games at the time have fallen into disrepair now. The producer of the most famous game, Hideo Kojima, was even fired...
"Forget it."
Lin Yao thought about it, and directly closed the game forum, not thinking about it any more.
There is no point in worrying about this now.
What's more,
she didn't believe that the Assassin's Creed series, which has become one of Ubisoft's cash cows, would be so terrible.
She felt very happy playing it.
At worst,
the parkour in the game is attractive enough, right?
...
Tianhu.
Li Guangsheng endured "Left 4 Dead" for three weeks.
It was almost the end of the year.
Finally,
the popularity of "Left 4 Dead" decreased...
It was really outrageous.
It was a buyout game, a one-time deal, and it sucked a lot of money.
In the end, it still had the popularity of an online game.
He was really angry at the beginning.
But in the end, he didn't have any temper at all...
But fortunately, these difficult days are finally over.
Li Guangsheng stood in front of Mou Feng and said, "Are you ready to announce it? If you delay any further, the Linmu E-sports Festival will be held soon, and it will be even more troublesome."
"Well, this is the best time node."
Mou Feng nodded in agreement: "Although there are still many people playing "Left 4 Dead", most of those who follow the hot spots have not mentioned this game anymore... Linmu Studio has made a lot of face this time. When we say we want to make a MOBA
mobile game at this time, it just happens to give a lot of self-media topics that are afraid of chaos in the world. We have a successful example like "Under the Dark Night". They will be very willing to compare the MOBA mobile game we are making with Linmu Studio's "Top".
And as long as our mobile game can be compared with Linmu Studio's "Top", instead of being picked out by players to compare with Linmu Studio's buyout game, it will be considered a success."
This time.
Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng's strategy is very simple.
It is to imitate the plan of "Under the Dark Night" to benchmark "Day of Reincarnation".
After all, they have succeeded in doing this before and tasted the sweetness.
I have to say.
This trick really works.
As long as you can get your mind right, deep binding with the first is the only way for the second to maintain its advantage.
"Then I'll go prepare, prepare for large-scale publicity."
Li Guangsheng finally heard a definite answer from his childhood friend, and he was relieved immediately.
He had been mentioning it for some time, but Mou Feng had always disagreed.
The most important reason was of course that the effect was not good.
The latest and most popular game of Linmu Studio at the time was "Left 4 Dead". You said you wanted to benchmark their mobile games?
Of course, there was another reason.
Mou Feng still had to save face. He didn't want to run into the gun and let Tianhu Company become the monkey that players picked out to compare with Linmu Studio.
This is too embarrassing.
Li Guangsheng actually understood the reason, but he was anxious!
Now that he finally heard the answer he wanted, he felt relieved.
"Thank you for your hard work, go prepare."
Mou Feng also knew that his childhood friend was anxious, so he smiled and asked him to prepare. He held the mouse and opened the player forum to see what the players were talking about recently.
In this regard,
he is quite similar to Lin Yao. He
likes to spy on the players.
"Then I'll go."
Li Guangsheng nodded, then turned and walked out the door.
Because he was too excited.
He didn't notice that Mou Feng was staring at his computer screen, and a look of astonishment slowly appeared on his face, and then it was full of shock, and his expression changed like a face-changing face...
At this moment.
Li Guangsheng had already walked to the door of the office and was about to push the door open to go out.
But suddenly.
"Wait a minute!!!"
Mou Feng suddenly shouted and stopped Li Guangsheng directly.
The voice was so loud that half of the floor could hear it.
Li Guangsheng was frightened, then turned around with a confused face and asked, "What are you waiting for?"
Mou Feng glanced at his computer screen, then raised his head and said with despair, "Wait until the storm is over..."
"???????"
Li Guangsheng realized something, and his pupils trembled wildly.
