"You will focus on resolving the bugs and optimizing the game. We will further improve the security. I won't say more. We will try to start the internal test of King of Glory when school starts on September 1st."
Ye Ge asked them.
“I know you are under a lot of pressure from all sides, but everyone! We must have enough funds to realize our dreams!
Besides, who says King of Glory won’t be a successful game? "
Everyone: "."
"Let's not talk about this for now. In addition to the matter of "King of Glory", I have another game project here today and I would like to ask for your advice."
Ye Ge will turn on the computer projector and then open the PPT.
“Regarding the pigeon game, I call it “The Soul”.”
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 569: Draw a Pie First (4000 words, two in one)
"I call it the 'Primordial Spirit'."
Ye Ge projected Yuanshen's plan onto the screen.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the rendering on the PPT.
The picture shows a two-dimensional girl holding a sword, wearing a white skirt, standing on a cliff and looking at a city in the distance.
A flying dragon was hovering in the sky above the city.
You know what, if the style of this game is like this, it would be really good.
But they couldn’t figure out what kind of game it was. Could it be Sailor Dragon Quest?
“For this game, I plan to make it an open world, just like the world map of the current “Phantom Beast Palu”, but the difference is that Yuanshen is a two-dimensional game.
The main gameplay is exploration.
Players control characters and explore the open world. Through exploration, players obtain resources and gradually become stronger.
The core is Genshin Impact's card drawing system. Many characters will be put into the card pool for players to select.
I believe that this game will be unprecedented in the history of games.
I have a copy of the plan here. You can look at it after you sign the confidentiality agreement. I will give you half an hour.
Tell us what you think after you read it.”
Ye Ge gestured to Lin Cheng, who quickly stood up, walked to Ye Ge's side, and distributed the confidentiality contracts. After everyone signed their names, Ye Ge confirmed that everything was correct, and then distributed the Yuanshen Plan he had made.
Inside the conference room, there was only the sound of flipping documents.
Everyone watched intently.
This plan only roughly covers some key points of Genshin Impact, such as the krypton gold system, exploration rewards, etc., and does not expand on it.
Otherwise, if the card drawing system plot and various decryption things were all written in, not to mention whether the number of words would exceed hundreds of thousands, they would definitely not be able to finish reading it in two hours.
Even with all this art, they still hadn't finished watching it after half an hour. Ye Ge was not in a hurry and was playing Landlord on the side.
"How's it going? Have you finished reading it?"
When the last person put down the plan, Ye Ge asked with a smile.
"We've finished reading it!" Everyone nodded.
Look at your boss with respect and admiration!
If this game called "Yuan Shen" can be made, it would be really amazing.
Just as my boss said, this game is unprecedented.
Although the type of exploration world and the setting of anchor points are somewhat similar to those of the fantasy beast Palu, there are actually quite a few differences.
Imagine an inclusive open world where players explore, look for treasure chests, fight monsters, challenge bosses, and then obtain resources to become stronger.
Moreover, all the characters you control are those sexy, cute and attractive two-dimensional beautiful girls.
This is really awesome!
So, it's not just about the content of this one game.
This game also focuses on the character design of the main character.
If we can create popular characters one after another, the value of this IP may even be greater than the game itself.
Just looking at the several female characters revealed in this plan, such as Yura, Ganyu, and Keqing, they are all really awesome.
I don’t know where my boss found these talented painters.
Obviously they didn't reveal anything, but they gave people a shivering feeling.
"I had originally intended to make this game into a mobile game, but as it stands right now, the device hardware definitely doesn't allow it." Ye Ge's tone was filled with a hint of regret.
Although smart phones are developing rapidly, it is still not enough.
No matter how it is optimized, smartphones will definitely not be able to run this game.
If we have to sacrifice the graphics and pixels of this game, it will be more than worth it.
So Ye Ge plans to make it into a PC game first.
Then, when the hardware of smartphones is advanced, Ye Ge will make "Yuan Shen" into a mobile game.
Finally, the data communication between the PC game and the mobile game is actually similar.
"Mr. Ye, you want to make this game into a mobile game?" Lin Cheng was shocked.
"Yes." Ye Ge nodded, "Why? Do you have any good ideas?"
"Mr. Ye, there probably isn't a solution. If this game is made into a mobile game, I'm afraid that smart phones won't be able to keep up. If it is based on the requirements in your plan, the current hardware will definitely not be able to keep up. Even some computers will have a hard time."
"I know, so I plan to make it into a PC game."
Ye Ge nodded and looked at everyone. "Do you have any opinions about this game?" We can mention it now. Although we will not start the project until one year later, we can discuss it now.
I believe you have also heard that I have a domestic 3A project.
This can be regarded as laying the foundation for our future work on Black Myth.”
What Ye Ge meant was——
"You guys work hard, the Honor of Kings game depends on you. If you do it well, I will give you this game. If you also do it well, we will make a domestic 3A game! By then, we will have enough funds and technology, so we can do a great job!
But if you don't do it well.
Hey hey hey.
The two projects after that have nothing to do with you.”
"Mr. Ye, regarding the card drawing mechanism of Yuanshen, what if the players never draw it? Should we add a guarantee?" Lin Cheng said.
The plan given by Ye Ge actually omitted a lot of things and did not give them the complete version. This was done for the same reason as before, which was to let them think more.
"Lin Cheng, your question is very good. What do you think?" Ye Ge asked.
Li Qiong stood up and said, "Perhaps we can create a guaranteed mechanism, that is, if players cheat too much, they will definitely get the character they want next time."
Ye Ge nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's do as you said. If the player draws wrong once, then the next time he will definitely get the character he wished for."
Everyone nodded, feeling that this was indeed feasible.
Wang Gan: "Mr. Ye, I found a problem. That is, we can set up treasure chests not only in the wild, but we can also do some puzzle exploration to make it challenging for players."
Lu Bin: "It's okay to solve puzzles, but what if they're too difficult? Wouldn't that be a way to discourage people from playing?"
Wang Gan: “It doesn’t have to be a difficult puzzle, it’s just a small game, and the most important thing is to let the players have more fun using the characters in their hands to beat monsters.
Otherwise, the strength of the character you trained has increased, but there is not much room for use. There is nothing more frustrating than this."
Chen Chen: "One more thing. Since it's an open world, we can definitely not only walk on land, but we can also swim in the sea and even fly into the sky."
Lin Zun: "Do you think we can add a mount system? Our characters are two-dimensional beautiful girls, and the mounts can also be lively and cute."
Huaqiang: "You know what, maybe we can cooperate with the next-door Fantasy Beast Palu, which has a lot of mounts, and the two games can increase the popularity of each other."
Li Wen: "There is also the issue of the card draw amount, which needs to be set carefully. If the amount is too small, it will be easier for players to get characters, and our turnover will also be lower. But if the amount is too large, players will definitely not want it."
Lin Cheng: "This game seems to be all PVE. Do you think we should try PVP? This way, it will be more fun for players to fight against each other."
Qian Wen shook his head. "I don't think it's a good idea. The main purpose of Yuanshen is to explore and kill monsters for resources. If it's PVP, it doesn't fit the original idea."
Hu Shan: "I also think it's not good. I want to ask you how to balance the strength of PVP? PVP without balanced strength is simply a failure, but if it's just PVE, at least it doesn't matter how strong the players become."
Huaqiang: "Then do you think there is a possibility that we can balance PVP without affecting the big world?"
Gradually, the conference room fell into discussion, and the originally melancholy temperament on their faces seemed to be lessened a lot.
What is this like? It's like a group of high school students living a miserable senior year.
Then at night in the dormitory, before going to sleep, we lay on the bed and talked about the beauty of college.
Ye Ge did not interrupt them and let them continue their discussion.
But after another half an hour, Ye Ge knocked on the table:
“Alright, alright, this project will not start until next year at the earliest. Normally, it will start the year after. We haven’t even launched the public beta of our game King of Glory yet, so we should get the things we have done right now first.
If we don’t do this game well and lose everything, all our plans will be in vain and everything will be put on hold.”
Ye Ge just wanted to give them a shot in the arm, but he didn't intend to let them get distracted by "Yuan Shen" and cause the game "King of Glory" to fail.
"Yes, Mr. Ye, don't worry, we will do a good job." Everyone nodded solemnly.
After the meeting, the members of the "King of Glory" production team had to go back to work.
But compared to before, each of them has become more motivated.
In August, the public beta of "King of Glory" was successfully completed.
Judging from the public beta data, "King of Glory" is definitely an excellent mobile game.
After the public beta, the internal beta will begin immediately.
Mihoyo will issue 100,000 internal testing qualifications at one time.
After that, 5,000 internal testing qualifications will be issued every two days.
