Chapter 669 Original Characters
The opening ceremony of the Linmu E-sports Festival this year
did not disappoint anyone.
It had all the necessary links.
To some extent, it even stole the limelight from the opening game.
After all, such a big update of so many popular online games under Linmu Studio is really not inferior to the announcement of new games.
And the most anticipated one is the new expansion pack of "World of Warcraft".
The most famous character in the stand-alone game "Warcraft" is about to appear in the online game. Many foot men will face Arthas, who they once controlled and witnessed his fall. This is very exciting
both in terms of feelings and gameplay. Feelings are because "Warcraft" is the memory of many people, and gameplay is because Arthas's chapter is the best chapter in "Warcraft". And how could players who can play "World of Warcraft" not have come into contact with "Warcraft". So after the opening ceremony, there were a lot of discussions about it. The players were very surprised. They all looked like they didn't expect Linmu Studio to have an online game. All I can say is that they were all dazzled by the recent releases of Left 4 Dead and Assassin's Creed. But no matter what. During the Linmu E-Sports Festival, Lin Yao gave a perfect answer, not only surprising the players with Left 4 Dead and Assassin's Creed, but also not affecting the promotional videos during the e-sports festival. As for the answer, the players thought it was to release the updated promotional videos of the online games during the e-sports festival. So the next day. When all the players thought that the updated promotional videos of the online games would be released on this day. Linmu Studio suddenly released a promotional video of Modern Scrolls with real machine pictures! All the players were stunned. ... Yeah - accompanied by street music. The bustling city appeared in the center of the screen. In front of the jewelry store, Di Santa, wearing a well-dressed suit and a motorcycle helmet, stood in front of a traffic policeman and said the famous line. "You forget thousands of things every day, why don't you forget this one too?" Then the screen flashed. Black neighborhoods, dilapidated houses, noisy neighbors. Xiao Fu was walking on the street with his dog when he received a call from Di Santa. "Hey..." Xiao Fu answered the phone. Various exciting scenes flashed by quickly. Car robbery, gunfight, motorcycle racing. Then a motorcycle flew out of the tunnel. The picture changed from dynamic to static. Finally, it was fixed in front of a textile workshop. In the small office of the textile workshop. The real machine screen appeared. In front of a small board covered with various pictures and information. A lame man began to introduce. [For this task, I thought of two methods, one is more clever, and the other is to do it directly. ] [Remember the vents? We input some hypnotic gas through the ventilation system, and then while everyone is fainted, break the display cabinet and take away everything... Because there is no need to control the crowd, this method can take away more loot. ] [If you do it recklessly, you will need your best skills... as well as four helpers and carbines. ] After he finished explaining. The player seems to have to choose whether to outsmart or attack. After choosing the route, you have to choose the driver, gunner, and hacker. Many players are still confused when they see this. They don't know what this promotional video is about. But then. The scene changes again. In the same environment. Di Santa begins to talk to the companions he has summoned. And then the players suddenly realize. This is to form a criminal gang! They are going to rob a jewelry store! Many players saw this and their eyes widened. But before they could react. The actual scene of robbing a jewelry store has appeared. A group of people carrying backpacks, wearing motorcycle helmets, and holding carbines directly walked into the jewelry store. This is not a CG, but a completely real scene. They rushed directly into the jewelry store. While controlling the crowd, they began to smash the display cabinets of the jewelry store and looted all the jewelry inside. All players can see that the income number in the lower right corner of the game keeps rising. They only have one and a half minutes. The tense atmosphere began to spread. And during this period. Something happened. The manager of the jewelry store's independent office didn't know what was going on. When she heard the noise and came out, she looked at the people with guns and subconsciously wanted to call the police. At this time, she had to point the gun at her and intimidate her to put down her phone, or directly adopt a more extreme strategy. In the communication, military advisor Lester kept reminding them how much time they had.
In one and a half minutes,
they have to grab as much as possible.
Countdown, dialogue, and broken glass
all increase the tension.
Finally,
after the entire jewelry store was looted,
De Santa took the lead and pushed the door open and walked out.
Then the scene at the beginning of the trailer happened. De Santa knocked the traffic policeman who reminded Xiao Fu not to park in front of the jewelry store to the ground and said his famous line.
Then,
he handed the jewelry to Xiao Fu who was waiting on the motorcycle, and the screen switched.
On the actual screen, the character controlled by the player changed from De Santa to Xiao Fu.
At the same time, four solid stars appeared
in the upper right corner of the game
, representing the wanted level.
As the sirens sounded, the game map also began to flash red and blue like sirens...
The police began to chase and intercept...
And the trailer ended with the sirens becoming more and more urgent and the motorcycles preparing to break through the encirclement. The name of the game
[Grand Thefti Auto (Modern Scrolls)]
appeared in the center of the screen.
At the same time, the release date of the game also appeared, which would be next spring.
But at this time, all the players have not come back to their senses.
Because no one expected it.
The game Linmu Carnival has announced so many ways to play... and that's not all!
This tm, the game actually has a way to play as a criminal gang.
This is the first time in the industry.
It's not that other games don't have robbery plots, but this kind of game where players determine the plan, select members, and then execute it.
It's really the first time.
"Fuck!!!"
In front of the screen.
Li Yu watched the live broadcast and finally reacted, and couldn't help but say "Fuck".
This is too exciting! ?
It can be like this! ?
Just watching the promotional video, he found it interesting and a little nervous.
How fun it would be to play it yourself!
In the live broadcast room, other players also reacted.
"Open world!!! Linmu Studio, do you understand open world like this? Let players play it like this!"
"This is too awesome!! No wonder they said it was a crime-themed game when it was first promoted. Now I understand!"
"The game can't really be played like this? How will other game companies survive next year? Especially those who say they want to make open world games!"
"Too exciting... If the actual game can be like this, combined with the content released in the last trailer, it will probably sell like hotcakes! And with the reputation of Linmu Studio, I really can't think of the possibility that the actual machine screen has come out, but the game is not what it said." "
Fuck, fuck, fuck!"
"..."
The second day of Linmu E-sports Festival.
After a short bombardment of major online game version updates.
A trailer for a stand-alone game appeared at the E-sports Festival.
It is still such a unique and eye-catching trailer!
Although the game "Modern Scrolls" has been announced, this actual machine trailer is really more exciting than the new games announced by ordinary game companies!
More importantly, when the second real-machine trailer of this game was released, Linmu Studio also announced the exact release date of the game. It will not be delayed, but next spring!
This is even more exciting.
And this is not over yet.
On the third day of the Linmu E-sports Festival.
Linmu Studio released another real-machine trailer of "Assassin's Creed"...
When seeing the game whose CG was released not long ago, seeing the protagonist, the white-clad assassin, flexibly climbing and jumping on the building, and silently jumping down to complete the assassination.
All players felt that they were in high spirits!
As expected, both games have set off an extremely exaggerated discussion frenzy.
While the players were discussing, they also calculated.
During the Linmu E-sports Festival at the end of the year, there will be
"Assassin's Creed" at the end of the month.
And "Modern Scrolls" after the Chinese New Year.
This is almost full. Counting
it all together.
There will be no shortage of games to play in the first half of next year!
Or to be more precise, there will be games to play next!
If this is still considered as no single-player games to play, then under what circumstances can it be considered as having them! ?
...
Linmu Studio.
On the fourth day of the e-sports festival,
Lin Yao began to spy on the players' discussions.
When she saw that the players were discussing everything,
e-sports, online games, and stand-alone games,
she smiled softly, quite satisfied.
This was the effect she wanted.
The games announced at the Linmu Carnival were not all stand-alone games, but also online games, which would also become a hot topic.
The Linmu e-sports festival was more complicated, so the topics that players would discuss should be more diverse.
Now let's see.
This year's e-sports festival was not affected by the "Love Letter" project at all.
However...
Lin Yao soon frowned and showed a distressed expression.
As the players said.
Counting it all together.
In the first half of next year, players will have no shortage of games to play!
But the "Love Letter" project within Linmu Studio has only launched two projects.
How to fit the other projects into the schedule... It's a bit troublesome.
Yes.
Players think that there will be no shortage of games to play in the first half of next year, but in fact it's just the beginning.
If this is still considered a lack of stand-alone games, then under what circumstances can it be considered a lack of stand-alone games! ?
Lin Yao might answer this question for them...
and just when Lin Yao was worried about the game release date and other issues.
The door of the office was suddenly pushed open.
"Senior sister!"
Zhu Nianqiao shook her ponytail and rushed into the office.
After closing the door.
She rushed directly to Lin Yao's desk, supported herself on the table with both hands, leaned forward slightly, stared at Lin Yao's fair face, and said excitedly: "Are you going to add all the famous characters from the games in the "Love Letter" project during this period to "Super Smash Bros."? Including Steve? Altair? The four survivors? And..."
"Yes, didn't I give you a formal written notice?"
Lin Yao covered her constantly opening and closing red lips and pushed her back: "Don't get too close, your saliva is about to spray on my face..."
"Mmmmm..."
Zhu Nianqiao kept talking even though her mouth was covered.
She was rash and didn't care whether Lin Yao could hear her or not.
"What?"
Lin Yao was a little helpless and showed a puzzled look, then she noticed that she was covering her mouth, and quickly moved her hand away, explaining: "Forget it, don't say anymore, I have explained the purpose. We have been releasing games intensively during this period. These new games are recent and players have a deep impression of them. If they can be announced as the first wave of fighters at the carnival, the players will be crazy..."
"I know!"
Zhu Nianqiao leaned forward again, her eyes sparkling, and said: "So let me confirm with you, since so many fighters have been added, why don't we add one more!"
"Everyone said you were too close."
Lin Yao was a little helpless, pushed her back again, and asked: "Which game character?"
"It's not a character from any game, I want to add an original character! A purely original character! The character prototype is you..."
Zhu Nianqiao completely ignored the advice, leaned forward again, and almost lay on the table.
Lin Yao covered her mouth with her hand again: "So you got too close... why?"
"Don't you think it's cool!? And I even thought of the name of the character!"
Zhu Nianqiao leaned back, breaking away from Lin Yao's mouth, and chattered: "And there are so many game characters, and I think the original character is the most suitable to string them together!"
"Then why is the prototype me?"
Lin Yao did not refuse outright, but asked: "I don't have time to record or motion capture for the character. I'm very busy recently."
"The prototype is you, but your face will not be used. It's just a source of inspiration."
Zhu Nianqiao explained, and then said firmly: "I will take care of the relevant design! Senior sister! I'm not doing this for fun, I just want to make the game better! I insist on adding original characters!"
"..."
Lin Yao looked at Zhu Nianqiao's palm-sized face and the determined look on her face. After a moment of silence, he smiled: "Okay, you can do it first, but you must give it to me for review in the end."
"So you agreed!?"
Zhu Nianqiao's eyes lit up, and she was so excited that she fell on the table.
"Too close..."
Lin Yao sighed and covered her mouth again.
At this time.
The door of the office behind Zhu Nianqiao was pushed open.
Mu Wanqing opened the door and saw this scene, and her steps immediately paused.
Lin Yao and Zhu Nianqiao turned back together.
"What are you doing?" Mu Wanqing asked in confusion.
"Nothing, talking about work."
Lin Yao responded, then looked at Zhu Nianqiao and corrected: "Promise you can design it first."
"That's enough!"
Zhu Nianqiao supported herself on the table and straightened up with a whoosh, then turned around and ran: "Wait for my good news! Senior sister!"
Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing watched Zhu Nianqiao rush out of the office full of energy.
As the office door was closed.
Mu Wanqing retracted her gaze, and then asked gently: "What's the matter?"
Lin Yao explained to her briefly.
After listening to this, Mu Wanqing was slightly startled: "Original character?"
"Yeah."
Lin Yao nodded, then smiled and said: "I didn't want to agree at first, but she obviously didn't want to play around, she was very serious, I thought it was a good sign, so I didn't object, let her try it first."
"Is that so..."
Mu Wanqing showed a look of understanding, then changed the subject and smiled: "I thought she was lying on your desk to kiss you."
"What are you thinking about?"
Lin Yao was amused when she heard it: "Kiss me? How is that possible."
"It really looks like it."
As Mu Wanqing explained, she came to Lin Yao's desk, and then imitated Zhu Nianqiao's posture just now, supporting her hands on the table, leaning forward slightly, close to Lin Yao's pretty and round oval face.
Lin Yao was quick-witted and reached out to cover her mouth.
But she didn't use too much force.
"..."
Mu Wanqing was silent for a moment, and said vaguely: "Didn't you say it was impossible?"
"Zhu Nianqiao is impossible... but you."
Lin Yao tilted her head, looked at her, and chuckled: "What do you think?"
Mu Wanqing: "..."
...
On the other side.
Zhu Nianqiao hurried back to her seat, without stopping for a moment, immediately took out the digital tablet placed aside, opened the software, and began to draw lines.
Describe the original character in her mind.
As for the key point.
The character cannot look like Lin Yao, this is a must.
Otherwise, Lin Yao probably won't agree, and she also thinks this is not good.
So she won't make the character look exactly like Lin Yao.
But as for the personality.
Zhu Nianqiao thinks it can be applied.
There is no way.
She thinks that the personality of her senior sister is really likable.
As a homosexual, she likes it and wants to get close to it, not to mention the players.
As for the lines, find a voice actor with a similar voice.
In short, the key is
to make the players feel that this character is one of Lin Yao's incarnations.
But it is not Lin Yao.
As for the name,
Zhu Nianqiao has indeed thought of it.
It is called "The Unyielding Girl".
This will be the only original character in the game "Super Smash Bros."
Zhu Nianqiao does not plan to add new original characters in the future.
As long as she is still the producer, no other original characters will be added.
This will be the most special character in the entire game.
At the same time, it will also be the most special character in her mind.
"...This is really great."
Zhu Nianqiao couldn't help but smile and sighed as she drew.
...
Next.
Linmu Studio's projects and Linmu E-sports Festival are all progressing in an orderly manner.
And because of the existence of Linmu E-sports Festival.
The entire game industry.
So many game companies.
Except for Linmu Studio, they have lost their voice.
There is no way.
Compared with size, voice, and popularity.
It really can't beat Linmu E-sports Festival.
What's more.
The actual trailers of "Modern Scrolls" and "Assassin's Creed" were released at the Linmu E-sports Festival.
This is simply a king bomb!
Although Mou Feng felt that he couldn't wait any longer, he was not crazy enough to announce the news that Tianhu would make a MOBA mobile game at this time.
This is completely a shot in the arm.
Whoever does it is an idiot.
He planned to wait until the end of the e-sports festival and the release of "Assassin's Creed" before announcing the news.
...He thought so before "Modern Scrolls" announced the specific release date.
But he didn't expect it.
"Modern Scrolls" actually released an actual trailer at the e-sports festival and gave an accurate release time.
And it was just after "Assassin's Creed".
This not only made him firm in his idea that he couldn't wait any longer, but also embarrassed him.
There are new games after "Assassin's Creed"...
and a bunch of major version updates for online games.
This is really too dry.
He struggled for a while and could only choose to announce the news before the release of "Modern Scrolls" and after the release of "Assassin's Creed".
Time is very tight.
And the effect may not be very good.
But this is the only time period to announce the news...
"So what exactly does Linmu Studio want to do
during this period..." Mou Feng made the decision helplessly, really helpless.
He just hoped that there would be no more accidents. He still didn't understand
the purpose of Linmu Studio's crazy production of games during this period, and the purpose of announcing "Left 4 Dead" and "Assassin's Creed" before the e-sports festival.
He
had no idea at all .
Mou Feng racked his brains for an answer, wanted to find the source of his uneasiness.
But he didn't have much time left.
Time passed day by day.
Soon.
It was approaching the end of the month.
The day after the closing ceremony of the Linmu e-sports festival.
"Assassin's Creed" was released.
