When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 530 Where did you come from?

Because there are so many characters and plots, so many countries or regions are necessary, otherwise it would not be able to support such a large worldview.

But if we follow the ideas of multiple countries, it will be easy to do it well.

Every country has a representative element, and by designing themes and architectural styles around this element, we can have a very broad range of materials.

Moreover, the correspondence between elements and characters can make the characters more recognizable.

From this point of view, doing it well may be detrimental to collecting players' negative emotions.

At this moment, Qin Fengliang came up with an idea.

"Boss Li, this is what I think.

“First of all, we don’t have to design countries and regions strictly according to elements, and we don’t have to give every element a completely equal status.

“That is, you don’t have to design nine different countries. It’s OK for some elements to exist in the form of tribes or wandering groups.

“The relationship between countries can also be more chaotic. For example, we can set it up like this: the original Fire Nation was invaded and occupied by the Water Nation, so the statue of the God of Fire was toppled, the resistance organization was suppressed, and all the citizens of the Fire Nation became second-class citizens.

"The Kingdom of Wind was destroyed by a group of countries and turned into a huge ruin in the sky. The citizens of the Kingdom of Wind were forced to live in exile around the world and suffered discrimination everywhere.

“The most important point is: when our story opens to a certain country, the player will not play the character of this country!
“For example, when we opened the Water Kingdom, we introduced all the new mechanisms of the Water Kingdom, but the characters in the UP pool were all fire element characters.

"And the fire element character is restrained by the water element. Players are directly targeted after drawing characters. The more they play, the more angry they get!"

Lilith's eyes lit up: "Hmm? That makes sense."

If we just open the country one by one step by step, and then decide the characters that can be drawn based on the country, it will be difficult to create too much negative emotions for the players.

Because monsters and the characters played by players have the same attributes, it is difficult to differentiate them when the mechanism is cut.

But on the other hand, what if the monster and the player's character are not of the same attributes?
That means a lot of shady operations can be carried out!
"Okay, now that we have decided on this general policy, the next step is to work on the specific world view and character design.

"I will go assign tasks to the employees of Nitiantang."

Lilith was very happy, she felt that she had come to the right place this time.

Sure enough, by combining the opinions of Gu Fan and Qin Fengliang, she could often come to the conclusion that satisfied her the most.

Since Against the Heavens cannot make changes to the game after it is released, it can only continue to adopt the model of Shadow World, completing all the content of the game at the beginning, and then continuously opening up new mechanisms and new areas according to time.

This is a fantasy and completely unbelievable thing for other game companies.

Simply put, it is still a problem of project management and development capabilities.

The "Endless Fantasy Legend 2" currently planned by Nitiantang is itself a very large game.

If other companies were to do it, the first two major areas might take one or two years, and each subsequent major area would take several months to continuously update.

Don't complain that it's slow; this is something that only top-level project management capabilities can achieve.

Of course, thanks to the existence of the Vientiane Editor, many development processes can be greatly shortened. But even so, there are only a few companies that can master project management.

In the past, Against the Heavens had been constantly trying to shorten the game development time and recruiting outsourcing companies from all over the country, which laid a good foundation for development of this scale.

In short, money makes the world go round!

Lilith immediately decided that the promotion of "Final Fantasy 2" must be advanced further!
It is best to attract widespread attention when creating a new folder, because the more attention it attracts, the more negative emotions it will generate.

She left with great ambition.

……

the next day.

The diligent worker got off the train at Imperial Capital South Station and took a breath of the sweet air with great ambition.

Well, not sweet.

But he was still very excited.

After receiving the olive branch from Nitiantang, the hardworking liver emperor immediately packed his bags and rushed over. Any hesitation would be disrespectful to the share of the profit.

Of course, he was still quite nervous and was not sure whether he could really do the job of chief planner.

But what should I say? Even if I am not qualified to be the chief planner, I should be able to be a general functional planner, right?
Or taking a step back, it's always possible to be a consultant.

Although I have never eaten pork, I have seen pigs run a lot, and I do have good skills. With the appreciation of Mr. Gu, it shouldn't be a big problem. Even if the bonus share I get in the end is not as much as 1%, 0.1% is also considerable!
Guo Zhaosheng came back with him, and the two of them happily took a taxi back to the company.

The journey was indeed too long. He felt that the time he spent taking a taxi in the capital seemed to be longer than the time he spent taking the high-speed train. He began to feel sleepy as he sat for a while.

He didn't know how long he had slept before he felt Guo Zhaosheng calling him.

"Wake up, we're here."

The liver emperor opened his eyes dazedly and got out of the car, then woke up instantly.

Emma, ​​what are you doing to me?

Is this still domestic?

In fact, I don’t know exactly what the office location of Against the Heaven looks like. I just subconsciously think that for a game that can make money and is so generous to its employees, the office space should be very high-end, right?
Normally, it is reasonable to own a building.

Even if you don't have a building, you should at least work in a very high-end office building in some core business district of the capital, right?
At first glance, it seems that everyone who comes and goes is an elite.

So where is this?
It's a suburban villa area...

Well, the environment is quite quiet and the scenery is pretty nice. It should be nice to live here.

Although the capital has typical northern weather, which is very dry and has average air quality, this community is still very good in the capital and has the temperament of a sanatorium.

But how could this be the headquarters of a gaming company?
The liver emperor suddenly had a guess, was I kidnapped?

Are they going to lock me up in a villa and start “sleeping on the floor today and being the boss tomorrow”?
“Wait, Nitiantang also arranges accommodation for us?
"Should I live here first and then go to work?"

The liver emperor came to this conclusion naturally.

Guo Zhaosheng looked at him and said, "That's right and that's not right.

"We will indeed arrange accommodation for you, and you will live here. But you also work here, in the same neighborhood, and you can walk there, isn't it good?
“Look at that building, it’s where our design team works on a daily basis.

"That building is Design Group 2. And over there, are Program Groups 1 to 5."

Guo Zhaosheng pointed at a few buildings casually, his mouth slightly opened, and his expression was a little dull.

The occupancy rate of this villa area was not very high to begin with, and with the uncontrolled development of Nitiantang, more and more funds were on the books, so all the villas that could be rented nearby were rented out.

Later on, there was nothing left to rent, so I bought a few.

Although the price is not cheap, it is still much cheaper than office buildings in popular business districts.

"Wait, the design is divided into several groups, what if everyone has to get together for a meeting?" asked the Liver Emperor curiously.

Guo Zhaosheng said as a matter of course: "Telephone conference or video conference.

“What’s so strange about this?

“NiTianTang has always been committed to the concept of decentralized office. In fact, all these groups are located in the same villa area, which is not a behavior worth promoting.

“If Mr. Gu had the final say, he would even want to split all these groups into other cities.

“But the employees were quite resistant, they still felt that living closer would give them a sense of security, so they stayed in this villa area.

“In fact, in the current working status of Nitiantang, there is no big problem even if all employees switch to working from home.

“In addition, we have also acquired some studios or outsourcing companies in other cities and sent dedicated personnel to provide guidance and management.

“If you’re interested, you can arrange a visit later.”

The Liver Emperor quickly shook his head: "That's not necessary!"

His inner feelings were somewhat complicated. The gap was too big!

From a high-end business office building to a villa in the suburbs, it feels like the game company's high-end image has collapsed.

But then again, it seems a bit sci-fi that we can achieve such development efficiency when everyone is not working together.

The former feels like a makeshift team, while the latter looks a bit like alien technology.

Against the Heaven gives people such a twisted feeling.
