Reborn Game Pioneer

Chapter 110: Pokémon’s Future Imagination
If Gu Feng were to judge the success of an IP, in his opinion, when a fictional image is known to [-]% to [-]% of people, the IP is already incredibly successful.

Pokémon is such an IP. Maybe many people will be confused just by mentioning Pokémon, but as soon as Pikachu is mentioned, these confused people will immediately show a look of surprise.

"Oh - you mean Pikachu, you know."

What does it mean to be out of the circle? This is it.

There are naturally many IPs like this besides Pokémon, such as Mario, Marvel, Ultraman, etc...

When it comes to the influence in the gaming industry alone, Mario is second to none; when it comes to the influence in the film and television industry, Marvel is the most powerful; when it comes to the influence in the animation industry, Ultraman...well...isn't enough for Pokémon. He was beaten with one hand. If he had not been interested in learning about it in his previous life, Gu Feng would not have expected that Pokémon, the most influential anime IP in the world, would actually come out on top. What surprised him even more was that the two ranked second, third and fourth. It's Hello Kitty, Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse.

However, although it cannot beat Mario and Marvel in a single circle, in terms of overall influence, many people may find it unbelievable. Even if all the above-mentioned IPs are tied together, they may not be able to beat Pokémon.

Compared with other IPs, Pokémon has truly achieved 360-degree comprehensive development without blind spots.

Gu Feng's biggest wish in this life is to turn his original intention into a true legend in the history of game development. It would be somewhat funny if a game company that can be called a legend does not even have an IP to support its appearance.

Just talking about the past life, among the big companies in the gaming industry, who doesn’t have one or two IPs that can be called monsters that attract money?Blizzard’s Warcraft, Riot’s League of Legends, Activision’s Call of Duty, Rockstar’s GTA, EA’s FIFA, SE’s Final Fantasy, and Nintendo’s Pokémon and Mario…

Of course, League of Legends is also a game in Gu Feng's future plans. It has established its unique dominance with more than ten years of dominance.

League of Legends was unknown in the early days because the company was not famous.

But it proves one thing with actions and facts. In the gaming circle, time will really prove everything.

However, although League of Legends is also a big IP, Gu Feng once thought carefully that MOBA is still not very suitable for VR or even holographic development in the future.

Technology is advancing, and the future of games cannot stop at mobile games. Although phenomenal VR games have not appeared in the past life, this is the general trend of game development. If it did not appear in the past life, it does not mean that it will not appear in this life.

He has a system and valuable experience left by countless predecessors in previous lives. Who said that time travelers must only do what they have done in previous lives?
What Gu Feng wants to do is to be a pioneer in this life, to open up the path that has been opened in the previous life, and to open up the road that has not been opened in the two lives.

The appearance of Pokémon made Gu Feng have a lot of ideas in a short time.

Unlike League of Legends, the stage of League of Legends is on the PC side, but Gu Feng privately believes that the stage of Pokémon is not on the PC side, nor on the mobile game side, nor even on the console side, but - VR!holographic!
No matter how classic the turn-based combat mechanism of Pokémon Heirloom is, from the perspective of a professional game designer, Nintendo may not have tapped even one-tenth of the potential of Pokémon in previous generations.

The turn-based system greatly limits its combat performance, and the limit on the number of skills greatly limits the depth of tactics and the upper limit of operations.

Try to imagine that you are in a gym battle at this moment. The rules of the battle are doubles. The battle field is a water field. The combination sent by the gym trainer is a fire-breathing dragon and a water arrow turtle. The sea and air are integrated. It is extremely powerful at first glance. It's difficult to deal with. You have to think about which two Pokémon to choose to fight and what tactics to use in the next command.

Command your most trusted Pokémon to battle like a real trainer!Go win!This is the real charm of Pokémon.

Imagine again, you are currently in the finals of the Fengyuan Regional League Competition. Five Pokémon from both sides have fallen. There is only one final decisive battle left in the 6V6 peak showdown between you and your most trusted starting Pokémon. Dream Pikachu, fight against the opponent's Flame Chicken, who is also an ace and whose fighting spirit is at its peak. The virtual characters in the audience are all real players. They are cheering for you and shouting for you.

Because it is a 1V1 battle, players can enter a state of concerted effort and directly control the Pokémon's body with their consciousness. At this moment, the Pokémon is you, and you are the Pokémon, enjoying the terrifying energy in the Pokémon's body. Wonderful, enjoy the passion and pleasure of experiencing the battle firsthand.

Whether you are commanding or going into battle in person, the battle scenes and immersion that VR can display are definitely unmatched by any Pokémon series in the past.

Maybe it's not that GAME FREAK doesn't want to do this, it may simply be that the technology is not up to it.

The above scene imagined by Gu Fengchang cannot be achieved by consoles, PC games, and even mobile phones.

Only VR and holography can bring the purest charm of Pokémon battles into reality.

If the picture imagined above really becomes a reality one day in the future, then the era of MOBA dominance may really be ended by a new king, and VR Pokémon will write a new chapter in the e-sports industry.

Gu Feng sat up from his chair excitedly, turned on his computer and searched for information on VR, holography, artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc.

dong dong!

Listening to the defender's voice, Gu Feng knew that the senior sister was knocking on the door.

"Enter."

The office door was pushed open from the outside, and the person outside was indeed Clivia, but instead of coming in, she stood at the door and called, "Dinner."

"Oh, okay." Gu Feng responded subconsciously, then he said "Ah" after realizing it and looked at the time in the lower right corner of the computer.

"I'll go! Why is it already noon?"

Clivia was already used to this scene, so she just urged: "We lose track of time when we are at work. We are all siblings, but Pigeon has never been like this. Let's go, let's come back after dinner and get busy."

"Clivia! You are getting more and more outrageous now!" Gu Lan's voice sounded outside the door.

"Nonsense, where did I go too far?"

"Did that sentence you just said mean that I eat actively?"

"Yes."

"Look, if you admit it, you are implying that I am not serious about my work and only think about eating, hum!"

Gu Feng locked the screen and stood up. Hearing the "argument" between the two people outside the door, he couldn't laugh or cry. Why did he feel that his elder sister was acting like a spoiled child?

"You are too good at thinking." Clivia was also a little bit dumbfounded. She directly hugged Gu Lan, who was 176, like a boy. "Didn't you always say that you all have a saying in Shu that you are not active in eating? , is there something wrong with your head?' I used you as a positive teaching material to criticize him, and you don't care about your body at all."

Hearing these words as he approached the door, Gu Feng suddenly stopped laughing...
