Chapter 1 Private Game?
"Start work, start work!" In an office building in the Timo business district in the center of Yodel, a newly listed game evaluation company started a busy day.
In this company, there are more than 200 game reviewers, but it still seems a little understaffed. It is common to work overtime. The main reason is that the market is too big now. Saturation is still far away, and a large number of graduates still invest in this industry every year.
Since the establishment of Planet D Federation in the 23rd century, artificial intelligence has begun to spread around the world. Most of the artificial labor has been filled, resulting in fewer and fewer things that humans can do. Because there is a lot of free time, it makes the entertainment industry more and more popular. The more developed the game industry is, as an important part of the entertainment industry, the progress is naturally changing with each passing day.
In the office area of "Storm Tribe, Empire Conqueror, Lingjian Fengmolu, Onmyoji 28", Xiao Chen, who had just joined the company, opened the list of games to be tested this time, looking at this big IP, Xiao Chen There was envy in his eyes.
These games are all produced by big companies, and they were big productions that had a lot of publicity two years ago. The company actually invited so many high-level works to do evaluations. It seems that the connections and strength are extraordinary, but it's a pity nothing to do with him
As a newcomer, it is naturally not his turn to evaluate such a big IP work. Usually, veterans in the industry are invited to conduct accurate evaluation and risk assessment of the game.
And most of what these newcomers can test are only games designed by some private designers.
Due to the development of artificial intelligence, the templates and frameworks of the game platform are very mature now, and the basic cost is not high. As a result, many private game lovers without money can also create a virtual game with their creativity, but there is no creative team and a large number of artists. , Privately designed games generally can only rely on exquisite creativity to attract audiences.
After the threshold is lowered, the quality of private works is uneven, and there is no one in a million. Most of them are games that sell meat and rot. Some otaku and otaku will still pay for this kind of game. Those who can afford a house are generally not bad for money
Xiao Chen swipe the screen boredly, looking for works that can refresh him a little bit. Suddenly, he saw a black metal icon.
"The LOGO is well done!" Xiao Chen looked at the icon of a game called Xinghai and became a little more energetic. The icon has a metallic texture. Judging from the title, it should be a sci-fi game, but it is not sure, the theme of sci-fi Many big companies dare not touch it, let alone private designers.
Mostly it’s a baiting game, either a girl will accompany you on an interstellar adventure, or it’s a sci-fi disguise, it’s actually a legendary game that upgrades monsters, replaces warriors and mages with Force fighters, and It's vulgar to replace the dragon-slaying sword with a laser sword.
I don't know why there are still people playing legends. I don't know how many generations have been deceived by this feeling?
With a feeling of bumping and looking, Xiao Chen still clicked in. It is better to test the legendary game early in the morning than to test the development game. After all, the development game is easy to congest the prostate after testing too much. "
"Welcome to Xinghai, come, sign a contract, and become a subject of the great Lord Xiye!"
A loud voice interrupted the sluggish Xiao Chen. He raised his head in a daze, looking at the tall and mighty NPC in front of him, his whole body trembled.
"I go here Is this really a private game?
This model is too realistic, right? "
Xiao Chen looked around in disbelief. The scene seemed to be a temporary base, with pure metal layout, various unfamiliar instruments, mechanical arms, and many inexplicable equipment that he couldn't understand but seemed too high-end. Immediately excited beyond words.
The most popular sci-fi work in the market today is Titan produced by Heavy Rain. The ID is priced at 88,000 federal coins. It is the most expensive game on the market today. When he was studying, he saved money for three years to buy an ID. I barely scraped together enough money to apply for an account, but even that game, in terms of the scene design and the realism of the NPC model, can almost be said to be blown up!
The details, the metal texture, the NPC model, the lines on the face, the ups and downs of the muscles when breathing, are even more real than a virtual sci-fi movie!
Did he encounter the legendary folk masterpiece?
Xiao Chen couldn't help reaching out to touch the NPC, but before he touched it, a huge coercion suddenly struck, and Xiao Chen Que sat down on the ground before he could guard against it. The pain made him even more surprised, and he thought to himself: 100% tactile reality? This game is bold!
"Don't touch the lord!" The tall NPC glared at him fiercely and said, "If there is another crime, it will be killed on the spot!"
"Fully intelligent NPC?" Xiao Chen took a deep breath. Now that the artificial intelligence technology is mature, it is not unusual for a fully intelligent NPC, but the personality setting of this NPC is quite interesting.
After thinking about it, he still didn't continue to provoke the other party. If the other party slapped him to death with this 100% sense of touch, it would feel uncomfortable. Thinking about it, he looked at a huge metal door next to him.
There was a window on the door, through which he saw the scene outside the base. It was desolate, with no green plants on the red ground. It should be modeled after the Mars exterior.
This saves trouble, but the details are still in place, the quality of the sand and gravel on the ground is extremely realistic, and the physical effects produced by the wind flow are also very good, and there are almost no faults!
After thinking for a while, he grabbed his hand and wanted to open the door to go out to take a closer look at the outside scene, but suddenly his hand was bounced back by an electric current, and he was surprised when he heard the NPC say: "Mortal, your body can't move in this place." To survive on the planet, after signing the contract, the lord will carry out biological transformation on you, and when the population here reaches 500, the lord will organize you to go outside to collect resources and build a home!"
"Oh..." Xiao Chen said with a face of sudden realization, "So it's not open yet!"
But when you think about it, the production of this quality requires a huge amount of work for lighting and scene layout. Naturally, the private designer does not have the ability to develop too many areas, and he immediately understands that this should only be a semi-finished product!
This kind of situation is not uncommon in the market. Many private designers have a very high level but cannot be reused. They often design an opening model first, and then use it to attract investors to invest in his game.
Thinking of this, he immediately began to score the game professionally.
Game nature: semi-finished product.
The performance level of the game screen: five stars, perfect details and excellent texture, it is definitely a cross-age work in terms of the screen alone!
Game model: Five stars, exquisite and delicate, reflecting the powerful art team of the game.
Endurance of the game: Unknown, no gameplay has been released yet, it is a fundraising game.
Overall evaluation of the game: a very promising semi-finished product with a very strong art team. I believe that if there is a good game planning team, this may be a game that can replace Titan. The investment risk is three and a half stars: the reason is that the development content is too large. Little, almost no content at all, which makes me wonder if this work has no plans for the future. It is recommended to ask before investing, or hire an excellent planning team!
After having a summary in mind, Xiao Chen excitedly planned to go back and write the report first, digging a pile of gold in the cesspit, which is a good achievement!
But suddenly, he found that there seemed to be no menu button, and he was stunned for a moment, then looked at the only intelligent NPC on the scene and asked, "How do you exit here?"
This time, the NPC didn't speak directly, and pointed to a teleportation device in the center of the base that looked a bit like a sci-fi movie.
Node exit system?
Xiao Chen was stunned. Although this method will make the game more realistic, it will be very troublesome. It is not very pleasing in the face of today's fast-paced entertainment mode. It seems that this game really lacks an excellent planning team .
After thinking about it without hesitation, he quickly walked into the teleportation device, clicked on the menu, and chose the option to quit Xinghai. He had to hand in the evaluation report before other people found out about this game. Let it go!
With a flash of light, Xiao Chen in the teleportation device disappeared into the device at once, and the NPC who had a cold and arrogant face just now sat down on the ground with a bang after seeing him leave, and put his mighty metal helmet Take it off, revealing an extremely handsome face!
"The lord is exhausted!" The NPC actually said to himself: "This idiot has finally left!" Then he said to the space: "Smart, can you really get away with it like this?"
"Lord, don't worry!" An electronic voice suddenly came from the base: "The lord just wait patiently, there will be a steady stream of subjects coming in soon!"
