Chapter 179: Will I be fired if I work overtime? (Second update)
Easter eggs have always been a specialty of Fangcheng Studio, so you must appreciate them.
Lao Wang had heard from Monkey in private that his boss Fang Cheng was an Easter egg maniac and wanted to fill the game with Easter eggs. Even when he was planning to play, he often saw new Easter eggs appearing.
If you do not encounter any Easter eggs while playing the game, it means that you did not play carefully enough and you will be punished to play it again.
Now it seems that the previous "Dark Builder" may have hinted at the shadow invasion aspect, and the problem-solving ideas have been given very early. It depends on whether the players are careful enough.
Fortunately, I knew Fang Cheng well enough to discover this.
Realizing that strong light can temporarily dispel the darkness, Lao Wang straightened his chest, spread his hands, and let the live camera capture as much of his beauty as possible.
[Damn it, Lao Wang’s reaction was so quick this time, he was just pretending. ]
[Yes, let him pretend. 】
【His~ Lao Wang actually has a brain, this is a mutation! ]
[After being on a TV show, did he actually get his brain back? 】
Amidst the sound of "praise", Lao Wang became more and more proud.
I just like how you can’t stand me and still praise me!
However, the kobold on the side could not see the situation in the live broadcast room. He could only see Lao Wang alone there looking beautiful, but he could not tell what the beauty was.
God be damned, the apostles of the outer gods are really weird.
After temporarily expelling the shadows, the bright spacecraft began to sail towards the nearest planet, while the shadows followed the spacecraft like tarsal maggots, neither approaching nor willing to give up this rare prey.
Shadows hate strong light, but they don't seem to be destroyed by strong light. But if Lao Wang guessed correctly, the characteristics of these shadows should be the same as those of the shadows in "Dark Builder".
Then, players can use the same method to eliminate the shadows, but the gameplay of the two games is different, so further research is needed.
Players who acted quickly have reopened "Dark Builder". After comparing the shadow effects and performance of both sides, there is no doubt that the living immortal is Fang Cheng, which is basically a stone hammer.
Looking at the games that Fang Cheng made before using this vest, some people found that Boss Fang is a good player in making commercial games, and he also has two brushes when it comes to player mentality.
And the habit of randomly labeling seems to have always been there. Games like "Spreading Traditional Culture Starts with Me" dare to label it "education". Is it because they are worried that the players' complaints are not strong enough?
Some video UP owners have begun to analyze how the linkage between the two games is carried out. This linkage through the game background has made players excited, and they have begun to actively explore the similarities between the two games.
The evil goddess before "Dark Builder" was also dug up, and various details were brought to the table and analyzed one by one.
On the sub-forum of Game Inn, players have gone crazy.
With the sudden popularity, even the administrators of the website did not expect that if their website structure was not strong enough, this wave of traffic alone would be enough to destroy ordinary websites.
They seemed to have forgotten about making money. Everyone was digging for various clues, then comparing the similarities and differences between the two games, and constantly summarizing various intelligence.
The story of the Evil Goddess was also unearthed. After discovering that there was a sequel to what happened that year, the players' emotions were further aroused and they continued to dig wildly.
On the forum, a piece of game news was pinned to the top, sending players into a state of carnival.
【Shock! Games can still be linked like this! 】——Chen Rang.
"Although everyone should be aware of it, the fact that the living immortal is Fang Cheng still needs to be emphasized.
According to the latest discovery of the game by a new UP owner Lao Wang who must be named, the appearance in "Space Navigator" There are signs of the shadow invasion, and according to the key NPC, the demigods in the first ring are fighting against a powerful evil god. The
shadow here is exactly the same as another game "Dark Builder", and there are people in "Dark Builder" "Through star map comparison, we found that the location of this game is in the same galaxy.
Currently, some players have tried to jump through this shadow and reach the world of "Dark Builder". If successful, then we can try Let two different game characters appear together. Although this kind of gameplay has been done before, it is the first time I have heard of a domestic producer doing this.
Imagine that we can use the magic weapons in "Dark Builder" to fight against the shadows of the outside world. , you can also use the spaceship in "Space Navigator" to fight against the shadow of another world. This behavior will greatly change the gameplay in the game and make the game more colorful.
This behavior can be said to be very bold, a If you are not careful, you may destroy the balance of the game itself and make the game very exaggerated.
But no matter what, I still admire Fang Cheng for doing this kind of thing.
He never seems to have any routine, and he always surprises me. , this kind of move that keeps players full of surprises really makes people feel good.
Thank you, Fang Cheng.”
The emergence of this game news allows players to see another possibility.
They began to actively search for the planet where "Dark Constructor" was located. Although most of them disappeared halfway in vain, the players still enjoyed the exploration actively.
All the wealth they had accumulated previously was used to purchase the Kuafu spaceship. The slightly dormant "Squirrel Ship" also burst out with new vitality, allowing its sales to rise again.
The three games "Dark Builder", "Squirrel Ship", and "Space Navigator" have produced amazing linkage effects. Although they are different types of games, and one of them has a different style, they are all in the same game. The game system under the world view still allows them to promote each other, and each other's sales have a terrifying surge.
On Station B, the effective linkage made it a good operational example. The previous low-key promotion of "Space Navigator" has become a publicity strategy that makes people constantly analyze.
Some people began to analyze why Fang Cheng made "Dark Builder" from the perspective of topic selection.
Some people analyzed why "Squirrel Spaceship" was used to succeed each other from the perspective of commercial promotion.
Some people say that using money as the main means of "Space Navigator" is a "premeditated" gift. The money accumulated by players is no longer a number, but a key to explore greater treasures.
After seeing these reports, Qiu Yu, who was writing a planning project at home, was also curious to learn the whole story, and then fell into deep thought.
Beside him, Alan, who was wearing white bunny pajamas, drank Tsingtao beer, watched the news in his country, and then sighed: "This news has reached Gaul." "
Gaul also knows about it?" Qiu Yu was surprised. asked, "I thought you Gauls didn't care about this kind of thing?"
"Some people still care. After all, Fangcheng Studio's games are not well-known in Gaul, but there are still some die-hard fans. .The gameplay of their games is great, and the gameplay is indistinguishable."
"This is true, what did Gaul say?"
"Let me try to translate it for you."
After taking a sip of beer, Alan said: "Beautiful linkage, unimaginable world view structure. When he first played "Dark Builder", Fang Cheng should have thought of how to expand this world view , how to bury Easter eggs."
"Our gamers should learn that games should be mainly about fun, not political correctness."
"I like Mu Kui very much, but they don't seem to like me. I play " When playing "The Doctor", Mu Kui didn't even come to receive me, but an NPC in the game. I feel this is racial discrimination."
Speaking of this, Alan also said: "I didn't meet Mu Kui either, is this a bug?" "You are using my account, and that is Xiao Mukui. What do you think I am doing?"
"Fuck Gaolu, you are hiring child labor, you will be caught." "
...This is a game."
" The same goes for games. There have been more and more restrictions on games recently. Last time, a game was issued a death warning by the LGBT organization because it only had two genders instead of one hundred and three." "So you guys have
recently been None of the games are fun."
Alan frowned and thought about it, feeling that Qiu Yu was right.
Afterwards, he read many more comments, and the unique exaggeration and romance of the Gauls were so vividly displayed at this moment that Qiu Yu felt that the other party's rainbow fart was not the same at all.
But I have to say, it’s a bit refreshing to hear people from other countries praise their own producers.
After finishing reading, Alan smiled evilly and said, "What? Isn't it a lot of pressure to choose such a person as your opponent?"
"Yes, but it's okay." Qiu Yu flexed his fingers and said, "The one from Fangcheng Studio The game is famous for its fidelity and large size. There are many ways to play the game, and it has a complete and detailed world view. Moreover, their program strength is excellent. They should have their own engine and can continuously reuse various materials, so they can produce It's fast and good."
"What about you, what advantages do you think you have?" Alan asked.
"Repetition."
"This..."
Repetition is not a bad design in games. On the contrary, many designers will intentionally make the game replayable, using the same game behaviors to increase the game time, but still allow the player to play it. joy.
Increases in difficulty, numerical values, feedback from key nodes, and negative feedback from the strength of various monsters are all things that need to be paid attention to in repeated designs.
"Diablo 2" is a representative work of repetitive games. This type of game is also called a refresh game. The progress of each link will cause a quantitative change in the game experience, and then a qualitative change.
Qiu Yu has already developed relevant abilities in Tianyi's small game department, and the games he designs will also use repetition as a selling point, thus creating unique characteristics that are unique to him.
Asking Alan to continue to help him design music, Qiu Yu continued to read relevant reports from Fangcheng Studio.
While watching, he thought. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that the other party was ridiculously strong, and he actually dared to promote it in this way.
But thinking about it again, he felt that the publicity effect this time should be a coincidence.
Lao Wang said that the recent popularity of the game was an opportunity, and the same world view of the three games was a trigger. The accidental discovery of Easter eggs ignited all this, and then due to various coincidences, it instantly detonated public opinion and even made foreign countries aware of this incident. thing.
The other party was just playing the game as they pleased. Even without this, the quality of the games themselves was enough to make them topical.
And it was in this way that Qiu Yu could feel the horror.
This shows that even if Fangcheng Studio makes casual games, each game contains a strong topicality, and this easy-to-find topicality will continue to increase as the number of games increases.
After developing players' habits, every time a game is released, players will subconsciously look for Easter eggs and connections with previous games, so that their own games can have a linkage effect.
"Fangcheng Studio is really unusual."
Qiu Yu sighed and found that his hands began to tremble.
Not out of fear, but out of excitement.
The opponent's linkage method did not scare him, but gave him some new insights. He will start to think about how to add new hot spots to the game so that his game can spread spontaneously after it is released.
After flexing his sore fingers, Qiu Yu continued to type on the keyboard.
Amid the praise from the outside world, Fang Cheng was in his studio, looking at the screen in confusion.
[A surprising linkage method. 】
【From best-selling to popular, he only used three games. ]
[What does it mean for Fangcheng Studio to leave the circle? ]
[When faced with the news of the opening of the gaming industry, what kind of answer did Fangcheng Studio give? ]
Looking over one by one, Fang Cheng had a question:
Is it me they are talking about?
In these media articles, I seem to have become a gaming genius and a marketing wizard, knowing almost everything from game production to game promotion.
When I came to the studio this morning, my colleagues in the studio also looked at me with admiration. My new colleague Lin Nan couldn't say a word, just admiration on his face.
The operator Wang Xiaoying pulled her excitedly and said that she never expected to use in-game marketing methods. The game really has to speak for itself with its gameplay.
Amid the praise, Fang Cheng was confused.
Staring at the red dust fire that others could not see, he found that the colors of the red dust fire were further mixed, and the player's desire to make money became a springboard for other desires, making him find that the players' thoughts were really elusive.
But after thinking for a while, he felt that the dust had not settled yet, and there was still a chance to save everything.
The players now have other ideas because of the invasion of the shadows, but as long as the players repel the shadows and restore peace to the world, they will definitely shift their attention to making money, thereby making the Red Dust Fire pure again.
With this idea in mind, he reorganized his thoughts and said to the planners: "Huang Ping, prepare to update! We need to link "Dark Builder" together." "I've been
waiting for a long time!" Huang Ping immediately jumped up He said, "During the weekend, I thought you would think so, boss, so I have prepared the plan in advance." "
You go home now and don't come tomorrow."
"Understood. Xiaodouzi, leave the plan to me It's up to you, Lin Nan, you and Xiaodouzi should be responsible together, I'm going home."
Watching Huang Ping leave the studio with wide eyes, Lin Nan opened her mouth and her body trembled.
No wonder Xu Qingling is not allowed to work overtime.
Here, will you be fired if you work overtime?
