MTL - Underworld Game Producer-Chapter 132 Fengshen (Nioh) production team was formally established
【Death Game Producer】【】
Happy Paradise can make a game like Escape 3 because of a boss like Li Wen.
In the middle of the game development, very few companies increase the budget of the game several times because of the wild ideas of the producers, allowing the game producers to realize their whimsical ideas.
This kind of boss who doesn't consider cost or loss at all is absolutely very rare.
The main reason is that all the shares in Happy Paradise are held by Li Wen alone.
If there is a board of directors like other game companies.
There is a high probability that the board of directors will reject Zhang Chunsheng's application to increase the budget.
In this way, only a mediocre orthodox escape sequel will be made. Under aesthetic fatigue, the sales volume of escape 3 is definitely not as good as it is now.
Fang Hong, Xiao He, Xiao Zhang, and Xiao Zhao are all senior professionals in the industry, and they have also produced many games.
Because of the development of the game engine in this world, the production of the game is more efficient than Li Wen's previous world, and the cost of the game has also been reduced a lot.
Although they have always worked in third-tier manufacturers, they have never produced a game with a cost of 100 million.
The cost of 100 million is based on the entire game production process, only the cost spent on game production, and all labor and the like are deducted.
Pure game production costs.
It is not the cost of labor, advertising, and resources that are all included in the board of directors.
According to this calculation, the cost of the gods game can indeed exceed 100 million.
However, less than one-third of the money was actually spent in the game.
Fang Hong and Li Wen have also communicated for so long, so they naturally know how Happy Paradise calculates the cost when making a game.
Every penny is spent on making the game, and even the neurotuning equipment purchased is not included in the cost of making the game.
Such a game company is directly attractive to a game producer.
To be honest, in fact, when Li Wen came to dig him, he was already very excited.
But at that time, the Shenshen game he made hadn't been launched yet, and he wasn't refrigerated by the company like he is now.
Therefore, he will not choose to change jobs just because of his heart.
Now, the series that has always been produced by him has also been replaced by a younger person to take his place.
He himself was completely sidelined, even though he still had the title of producer.
But the light of dawn will not give him any chance to prove himself.
If you still want to continue making games and fulfill your dreams, then you can only change jobs.
Because of the Waterloo of the **** game, to be honest, other third-tier manufacturers probably won't want him. Of course, even if other manufacturers want him, it is impossible for him to go to other third-tier manufacturers.
Now he just wants to enter Happy Paradise and try his best to make a game, a game that can be passed on by word of mouth.
The difficulty is not small, but he feels that if he has the full support of Happy Heaven, he will be able to do it.
Moreover, this time it is an action game that is different from the market and has Li Wen's characteristics.
He couldn't imagine that he would fail at all.
Especially in the last two days, the free game Battle Royale was born, and it is an extremely easy-to-learn game mode.

In addition, ninety-nine players are all crowded on one map for fierce battles.
Although the game is different from traditional competitive games, it is a little different, but I have to say that this game mode is really great.
Especially when playing in a team of four, you can give full play to various combat tactics.
Although the game still has some shortcomings, the flaws are not concealed, and the game as a whole is still very good.
There's even a mode for enjoying the purest, truest darkness.
This mode, Fang Hong tried to play once, he felt that he could not control this mode at all.
Probably only perverts can play normally in real mode.
Although he is a game producer, he still has a certain understanding of the game market, but he still hasn't figured out how to make money from the battle royale game.
It's normal, just like Li Wen's world.
When foreign game manufacturers gradually face up to domestic players and gain an in-depth understanding of the domestic player market.
They also can't understand why domestic free games are so profitable. The game itself has no high-quality content, but it can make a lot of money.
These big foreign manufacturers are crazy.
There used to be a saying, 'When Blizzard produces, it must produce high-quality goods. '
Such a company specializing in high-quality games is also affected by domestic games.
At a certain game conference, a game that was "highly anticipated" was released.
Diablo mobile game...
Players at the time thought it was a heavyweight game like Diablo 4, but they waited for a mobile game.
The press conference was silent.
The host of Blizzard even uttered the famous saying at that time, "Don't you all have a mobile phone?"
Since then, Blizzard has gradually gone downhill, and the boutique is no longer there.
No way, the market cultivated by the deformed online game market can indeed destroy a company.
Of course, the main reason for the collapse of Blizzard is not because of the influence of the domestic deformed market.
It has to be Activision.
As a Fang Hong who has always relied on the quality of the game to mix in the buyout game market.
I must be unable to understand the power of free in-app purchase games.
Fortunately, Li Wen wasn't too frenzied, such as krypton gold props to increase attribute points.
Krypton gold props increase player attributes, which Li Wen despises the most.
If there is no accident, he should not do such a thing.
...
Fang Hong and his three subordinates left.
God.
It has been finalized, next week Fang Hong and others will join Happy Paradise after handing over the work with the original company.
Because this is a game made using the Nioh system, and the production teams of Happy Paradise and Fang Hong have no experience in action games, so a large number of employees need to be recruited from the beginning.
Moreover, a lot of money is spent on various dedicated engines and equipment for action games.
The purchase of equipment and the recruitment of staff are carried out at the same time.
No one didn't want to work for Happy Paradise Company, so when the recruitment information was released, it became a hot search.
In just one hour, countless resumes were received.
Most people dare to submit their resumes without even knowing what an engine is.

The main reason is that the bonuses of Happy Paradise are really scary, especially the bonuses from the zero production team this time.
Let countless netizens go crazy for it.
More than three million...
This is money that most people may not be able to earn for a lifetime without eating or drinking.
How can this not make netizens crazy.
Therefore, when Happy Paradise sends out recruitment information, they don't care whether they really know how to do it or not, they just submit their resumes anyway.
What if you get selected?
Right, maybe Li Wen took a fancy to a certain quality in himself?
Anyway, just submit your resume.
This caused a lot of trouble for the personnel department of Happy Paradise, which had few people.
Although as the company expanded, it also absorbed some people from the personnel department of Crescent Company.
However, among the huge amount of resumes, it is very blue to select qualified candidates.
There is no way, even if you are very blue, you need to do it. After all, posting resumes is a personal freedom, and it is not an illegal act.
This also made the HR department begin to feel great pressure.
This time, we need to recruit 300 people.
Various occupations are required, such as art design, scene design, action design and so on.
After all, it is an action game, which is much more complicated than the previous games made by Happy Paradise.
At the same time, because of the recruitment information released by Happy Paradise this time, it has aroused the speculation of countless players.
Recruiting three hundred people is not a small number.
And it also recruits employees with experience in action games. It is not difficult to guess that this must be a big production of action games.
Li Wen will always make a game of a different type from the world, so players are also looking forward to this action game of Happy Paradise.
What kind of action game will it be?
Is it a horror action game?
Could it be that he directly beat the ghost?
Thinking about it this way, there seems to be nothing scary about horror action games.
What is the difference from other action games except that the enemies are replaced with ghosts?
Players really can't imagine what kind of action game Li Wen will make, but they definitely know that this must be a unique game.
After all, the players in this world have not been baptized by the old thief game.
I don't know what a soul game is, and I don't know that games can actually make players suffer while playing happily.
The old thief's games have always been regarded as works of small circles.
Demon's Souls, Dark Souls series, Bloodborne.
After Sekiro became popular in China, soul games suddenly became popular.
Especially the old ring, it is even more popular.
In fact, at this time, Sony took advantage of the time when the old man was out of the circle, and quickly remade Bloodborne ps5 according to the scale of the remake of Demon's Soul.
The pc and ps5 versions were released at the same time, and the sales volume is definitely better than anything else. The Adventures of an Illiterate Father and the Son of War God, Days Gone, Spider-Man and Uncharted 4 sold more.
After all, it was supported by the heat of the old ring.
Coupled with the super high game quality of Bloodborne, and the best dlc blessing of all the old thief's games, it will definitely be able to sell for a good price.
pity.
Bloodborne is like a wild species, completely forgotten by Sony, the painful 30 frames, and 1080p resolution, and the optimization of ps5 will still drop frames, indeed...

Li Wen did not immediately become the soul of the devil, and Resident Evil 2 also came to an end.
In fact, he could already be preparing to make Devil's Soul now, if Fang Hong hadn't joined Happy Paradise.
He may form a new production team himself, or he will be Fengshen Nioh first.
First use Fengshen to test the waters and accumulate a little experience in action games.
The soul game he wants to do can't be just a copy of the original, because it's a second-world game.
It is not an easy task to make a high-quality online souls game.
It's impossible, it is mandatory for players to only use simple basic attack actions such as slashing.
It's no wonder that such a next-generation game is not scolded to death by players.
On the old platform, it is completely copied, and then recreated with the technology of this world, it is not against the harmony, and it can be produced perfectly.
And in this way, the cost of the game will not be too high.
Unfortunately, times have changed.
The game circle was instantly ruled by the second world.
Second World has also become the best-selling gaming device, bar none.
The idea of making games can't be the same as before.
Just like Escape 3, it is necessary to break the original thinking of making games and create new ideas.
Therefore, in the Devil's Soul made by Li Wen, players can play a lot of fancy tricks.
For example, throwing the weapon in your hand as a hidden weapon, and the blue bar will slowly recover, affected by equipment and player points.
The magic will also be balanced, and there is no situation where the flame storm kills everything in seconds.
The most difficult point of the game to make is on the enemy side.
After all, the player is no longer disabled, and even more flexible like a monkey without clothes.
It even gets faster with points, speed and power.
For such a powerful player, if he wanted to make him suffer, he would naturally have to start with the enemy.
Fortunately, elite monsters can use AI to improve the intelligence of elite monsters, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
But what about common monsters?
In the old thief game, the most difficult thing is not the boss or the elite monsters, but the ordinary miscellaneous soldiers.
Although the miscellaneous soldiers are easy to deal with, they can always complete the feat of slaughtering "God" inadvertently.
What are the salary king's mourners, the three dogs slaughtering the gods, and all kinds of extremely underworld settings.
This extremely disgusting setting makes players feel unparalleled frustration. After the player's stats increase, it is very difficult to balance it.
Li Wen didn't want to make a failed Demon's Soul.
That's why we will make a soul-like game first, rather than a pure soul game.
Fengshen uses the Nioh system, except for certain settings that are considered soul-like, but it is actually completely different from the soul game.
The Nioh game mainly allows players to use various martial arts, ninjutsu, and yin and yang techniques to suppress monsters.
It's the same even when facing bosses, especially humanoid bosses, who can even be suppressed to the point where they can't even be handed over, and then die.
The soul game is more like a turn-based game than an action game.
Go through the monster's shot gap, and then counterattack. After the counterattack, the player needs to retreat immediately and continue to observe.

Most of the time, when you fight with monsters, you hit it, I hit it, and this is repeated again and again.
This is especially true of the Dark Souls series.
After the production of Blood Source, the style of Erren Zhuan was changed, and players were encouraged to attack because of the characteristic of attacking blood recovery.
Even some bosses, such as the Aries girl, have a stiff effect of destroying parts, and the player can suppress the Aries girl to death with a single fire talisman in a week.
There is also the daughter of the universe who was once a nightmare for all players, and she can also be suppressed to death by using part damage.
Bloodborne is indeed one of the most exhilarating battles among the Old Thief games, and the dlc pushes this exhilaration to the extreme.
Whether it's Ludwig who turned into a horse, or Lawrence, a half-body blood cow.
The senior sister Maria who guarded the tower of the small fishing village, and the orphan who beat countless players to autism in the end.
However, no matter how refreshing the blood source battle was, Li Wen would not be involved in the blood source fight in the first place.
There's no way, he doesn't even have the experience of a soul game now, after making it, it will probably be nondescript.
The most important part of the soul game is the design of the enemy.
Each type of enemy needs to be carefully designed, so that every player can clearly feel what suffering is...
But it is also necessary for players to feel that it seems that they can beat it with a little effort.
In particular, trying to get the player killed by mobs just creates frustration.
Can't let the player generate, "Fuck, I can't even beat a miscellaneous soldier, what a fart."
Instead, "Fuck, here comes this shady thing again! It's hard to guard against."
Miscellaneous soldiers are the essence of soul games.
Players can easily deal with one-on-one, barely win in one-on-two, and be beaten into Muggles if they don't pay attention in one-on-three.
The difficulty of such a game is actually very difficult to control.
Nioh and Soul games are actually completely different in design.
Although I don't want to admit it, King Ni can beat a boss at the beginning when he fights a miscellaneous soldier. If he doesn't pay attention, he will be killed by the opponent.
The difficulty of the game is very exaggerated.
Especially when fighting against elite monsters, if you use the soul game you come and go mode to fight, the difficulty of the game will soar, and the player will be desperate in an instant.
To be honest, Li Wen didn't even know how he passed Nioh 1 by relying on the come-and-go game mode of the soul game.
At that time, this game gave him a very bad impression, especially after clearing the level, some double-boss levels.
Gan!
The level he was most impressed with was the level where Nobunaga and his two bosses crowded together.
Play him to autism directly.
Later, after Nioh 2 came out, the disgusting setting of double bosses disappeared, and the game value did not collapse.
To be honest, recently I have been using reading to follow up, change sources, read aloud with many timbres, and both Android and Apple can be used. 】
Nioh 2 also joined the demon counter, the difficulty of the game has been reduced a lot.
It is also the most popular generation for all players, especially after Nioh 2 was launched on PC, Axiu, with the blessing of the mod, even stirred up the hearts of many lsps.
This time Li Wen will be working on the game of Fengshen, and he will be with Fang Hong~www.novelbuddy.com~This chapter is not over, click [next page] to continue reading-->>

It's not a name, this is the first new game that Happy Paradise has tried, and it can be regarded as the world's first suffering game in the second world.
Naturally, he needs to use 100% of his energy to make it.
He wants to make Fengshen a unique action game series.
Li Wen even gave Fengshen a budget of one billion yuan, which made Fang Hong and his three younger brothers dumbfounded.
As mentioned earlier, they haven't even made a game with a budget of over 100 million.
Only now did he arrive at Happy Paradise, and he was able to take over the production of a game with a budget of one billion.
Even Fang Hong didn't expect Li Wen to be so generous. He thought that Li Wen's ability to spend 300 million yuan to become a **** was considered a king bomb.
I didn't expect to take out one billion directly...
this.
When Fang Hong and his little brother left Happy Paradise, they were very stressed.
...
a week later.
The production team of Fengshen was officially established, and the recruitment of personnel is still going on, and it is not yet full.
Resident Evil 2 has also been officially produced and has been sent for review.
Li Wen can finally devote himself fully to the production of Fengshen game.
The sales volume of Escape 3 reached 5 million in a week.
The results are pretty good.
And the Dawn of the Night produced by Zhang Chunsheng and Su Yang is about to be completed.
And the turnover of the battle royale is also getting higher and higher. Although it has not made any money yet, it has already returned some of its capital.
Fifty trustees in the company were also successfully trained and began to officially 'work'.
