I play games in Zongman World

"Wooooow! Delicious!"

Everyone was having breakfast together, Haizi also looked at Shiyu and asked, "Have you sent a message to Yichen?"

"It's already been sent." Shi Yu smiled and picked up the phone and shook it, "Chen Jun just sent me a message, saying that the people at the scene are almost here, and they are waiting for the opening, and sent me the scene Photo."

Taking the mobile phone to the front, everyone also saw the photos sent by Yi Chen, some of them were taken in front of the audience, and there was also a selfie.

Looking at the selfie above, Aoba widened her eyes and said, "Oh! Sister Ye Yue is so beautifully dressed today!"

In the photo, Ye Yueshizuku, who was leaning against Yi Chen, was wearing a close-fitting evening dress, with her shawl, well-combed hair and exquisite makeup, she looked very graceful and luxurious.

Iijima Yuyin swallowed the vegetable bag in his mouth, looked at it and said: "En~~ As long as Miss Ye Yue doesn't talk and doesn't take random pictures of girls, she really looks good when she's serious."

This complaint can be said to be very correct.

After eating breakfast leisurely, the time came to 06:30, and the live broadcast of TGA finally started.

Chapter 643 Winning, a good start

After the opening game symphony, the host appeared on the stage, and this year's TGA officially started.

First of all, it is naturally a series of video mixes of games that have been released this year, allowing players to learn about the various games that have been released this year in the form of a revolving lantern.

Watching the video on the big screen, Ye Yueshizuku said with a smile: "Xiaochen, I saw the legend of Berserker!"

"Well, I saw it too." Yi Chen nodded with a smile, "And Apex and Tangdouren are also among them. It seems that these online games that continue to operate are also included. I just didn't expect it, this year There are so many games released, I don’t feel like I have any impression of many of them, and I know about others, but I haven’t played them either.”

"After all, our own development projects are full, and the games we can play are limited. At most, we can find some games that are relatively close to the development projects and learn about them." Yagami Guang said, "And, there are many For games of the same type, I think it’s more fun to develop them ourselves. For example, Pubg and Battlefield, I think Haizi has completely stopped playing, and only plays the apex we developed.”

"It is."

Yi Chen nodded in agreement.

There are so many games released every year, but among them, to be honest, it is estimated that less than half of them can achieve high sales and high reputation.

There are even some games that were only a little popular and discussed when they were first released, and then no one cares about them after ten days and a half months. Such things are not uncommon.

If the game sells well, it doesn't matter if no one pays attention to it in the follow-up. The worst thing is those games that don't sell well, and don't even have negative discussions.

As a company that has been developing high-quality games, although the employees of YC Productions usually go to find games from other manufacturers to play, they often find that the same type of games are not as good as playing their own games.

For example, rpg games, like Dragon Quest, basically everyone has cleared the level, and they will not touch it a second time. After looking through it, they can’t find any new and interesting rpg games, and some people even go back. Lai continued to play Persona, and some even came to Yichen's office specifically to ask when the new work of Persona would be developed.

Although rpg games have declined a lot in recent years, there are still a lot of players who like this genre.

Looking at the end-of-game video on the big screen, Yi Chen whispered, "I hope this TGA will announce some games that interest us."

After the play is over, the award ceremony of this TGA officially begins, and the first award is the best action game.

Nominated games appeared one after another, and YC Productions' Legend of Berserk was among them.

As expected, the final award was won by Legend of Berserk. Yi Chen also took the stage to get the first trophy amidst applause.

The second award is the best VR game. This award has nothing to do with Yi Chen and the others. The winner is Sony’s first-party VR game, Call of the Horizon Mountain, which was just released this year.

This game is paired with Sony's new PSVR2 generation, and the effect is really good, but Yichen is not very interested in VR games, and he doesn't plan to get involved in the VR field in the past few years, so he doesn't pay much attention to it.

Although it has been developed for several years, there are still many problems in the field of VR games. Whether it is hardware configuration, production cost, or development level, all aspects have not yet reached a relatively mature level.At present, the difference between the top VR games and ordinary VR games is too great.

And Yichen still has a lot of projects in his hands that have not yet started, and it is even more impossible to set aside an extra cost to invest in the VR game industry, which is extremely unwise.

This kind of thing should be handed over to hardware manufacturers like Sony and Valve.

But when it comes to valve, it seems that they are not very interested in VR now. They did a Half-Life alyx before. Although it has gained a lot of attention and various praises, it has not brought much sales. .

Therefore, after alyx, V Agency did not continue to have news of new VR games, but turned around to develop its own steam deck handheld, which is very good.

The Steam deck was done really well. Yichen also received a few engineering machines from V agency, and he also showed up and bought two.

Although the performance on the chip is not good enough, and the battery life is also a big problem, but the various built-in optimizations, as well as the support for the steam game library, are very good. It is still good to play some not so big games in your hand occasionally. I enjoyed it very much.

As for Microsoft, there has been no news about the development of VR equipment for a long time.

As for Nintendo, the last of the Yusanjia, the track of the old Nintendo is different from that of Sony and Microsoft, and it has never thought of a hardware competition.Moreover, the old Ren had already dabbled in VR in his early years, but he just gave up later.

Seeing the producer of Call of the Horizon Mountain come to the stage to accept the award, Yi Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know when we will see more advanced VR equipment. The current VR is still not enough."

"Someone wait~~"

Hazuki Shizuku said with a smile, "According to what I have learned from my friends, if VR equipment wants to go further, it will have to wait three to five years. There will be no breakthrough development in the near future."

Yi Chen shrugged: "Sure enough, it's similar to what I thought. Let's wait until it meets my expectations before entering the arena."

After the awards for the best VR game were announced, the awards for the best mobile game came next.

The best mobile game, as expected, was won by Yuanshen. This is the second year that it has won this award.

Although Yi Chen himself doesn't play Yuanshen, he has to admit that the game's gold-absorbing ability is indeed terrifying.Several times, Yi Chen was so stimulated that he almost wanted to enter the mobile game, but luckily he held back.

In terms of mobile games, it is actually very good for stand-alone game manufacturers to provide their own means for their own stand-alone games, and many manufacturers do this.

However, YC Productions does not need to do this at present. The sales of several stand-alone games under its hands are very good, and the two long-term online games also have good revenue.

And if you develop a mobile game, even if the development cost of this thing is lower than that of a stand-alone game, the labor cost still has to be made from scratch, and the cost in this area is relatively high.Whether it is planning or operation, it is necessary to recruit new people, which is almost the same as re-establishing a studio.

Even if he really wants to make mobile games in the future, Yichen will probably make mobile games with a buyout system instead of a free-to-play plus krypton gold model.

After best mobile game, it's finally time for best role-playing game.

Yi Chen immediately regained his spirits, he was very concerned about this award.

Chapter 644 Game Announcement

Among the nominated games for the best role-playing game, the one that Yi Chen felt most able to compete with was the Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy game.

This game is still pretty good, but the combat system is a little bit weak, but the overall flaws are not concealed. It is a game that allows people to play all the way to pass the level.

In the end, this award was finally given to Legend of Berserk.

Yi Chen took the stage again and received the award in a happy mood.

After finishing his award acceptance speech, Yi Chen didn't leave immediately, because he knew when he was filming that the film would start broadcasting after this award, and the official YC Productions game trailer was released.No matter whether Yi Chen gets this award or not, he will make an appearance.

The host also held Yi Chen's shoulders kindly and said: "I didn't come last year, but I came to TGA again this year. I think you should have prepared something that the players are looking forward to, right?"

Yi Chen smiled and nodded: "That's right, this time there are two new game trailers."

"Then, everyone, please watch the new game PV brought by YC Productions!"

On the big screen, it immediately switched to the broadcast screen.

The logo of YC Productions lit up, followed by a 2D side-scrolling-style town, which looked like a horizontal-panel pass-through game.

Then, a character wearing armor and holding a sword and shield walked on the street and began to walk forward.

After that, there will be a series of battles, without any additional narration and dubbing, just the battle clips from small monsters to elite monsters to a boss.

The audience in the live broadcast room immediately became excited after seeing these battle scenes and the character's upgrade options.

[A horizontal dark soul? 】

[This battle is so smooth, and the painting style is also very good, 2D dark style! 】

[Just wait for this! 】

Dark Soul can be said to be one of the signature games of YC Productions, and players have been looking forward to the sequel of the game.

Although the one that came out this time is a 2D horizontal print style, but the taste is as pure as ever, and the players didn't pay much attention to it.

And Shi Yu and others who were watching the live broadcast at home, of course, were also watching the barrage in the live broadcast room, and all of them smiled.

At this moment, Xiao Tianchu was completely relieved, and said with a smile: "Tell me, if these players are over excited now, what will they look like when they see the Curse of Blood coming out?"

Aoba tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "It should be even crazier. After all, compared to Salt and Sanctuary, Dark Soul is our highlight this time."

Haizi also said: "One 2D and one 3D, this will directly attract all players who like action games."

The first broadcast ended soon, and the title of Salt and Sanctuary appeared on the screen, and the login platform was also on all platforms, and the release date was next summer.

The end of the broadcast of Salt and Sanctuary was not cut out, and the second broadcast was immediately followed.

As usual, the logo of YC Productions, and then a low-pitched music sounded in the dark picture.Then the screen lights up, and a character wearing a special costume with a serrated knife appears in the camera, brushing the blade of the serrated knife with one hand.

Immediately afterwards, the weapon in his hand transformed into a long-handled weapon.

The screen switched, and a gloomy Gothic architectural style town appeared in everyone's eyes. The character holding a weapon just now walked in the town and started his own exploration.

In the streets and corners of the city, humans wearing Victorian-style costumes and holding various weapons are walking on the road. Are there crows flying by and wild dogs running by.

The music changed, and the screen switched back to the third-person perspective. At the beginning, the "protagonist" with a weapon in his hand was fighting with a giant man with a sledgehammer. He kept using sliding steps to move and dodge, and the serrated knife in his hand The next attack.

And when the giant man raised the sledgehammer in his hand to attack, the "protagonist" instantly raised the gun in his left hand.

"Oh!"

One shot knocked the giant man out of his knees, and then the protagonist stepped forward, pierced the giant man's body with his right hand, and gave the opponent a heavy blow, directly blasting him out.

This scene immediately aroused the exclamation of the audience in the live broadcast room.

[I rely on it!This should be a shield, right? 】

[This gun is used, the gun is reversed? 】

[I understand, this is the new work of Dark Souls, right? 】

[Although they are all from the dark wind, they are completely different! 】

[I rely on this boss, it's so big! 】

In the picture, the protagonist has changed from the giant man he fought against just now to a huge monster. The upper body is a huge humanoid, and the lower body is made up of various tissues. It makes people crazy to watch.

More than that, there is also a humanoid boss and a non-humanoid boss shown in the back, but each boss shows a creepy and crazy feeling.

In addition to the boss, the protagonist's weapon also changes, from a serrated knife that can be turned into a long-handled weapon at the beginning, to a long sword that can be put on a scabbard to become an epee, and a cane that can be turned into a long whip. It can be seen that the main one is deformable.

[It's over, the transformation of this weapon is so handsome! 】

[There is also this armor style, it is not the armor of Dark Soul at all! 】

[The overall style is so dark, and the blood explosion is also very powerful]

At the end, different scenes were switched one after another. After the protagonist faced a huge boss that fell from the sky, the title of the game appeared.

Bloodborne, Bloodborne

Log in to all platforms and release at the end of next year

The two games are similar but completely different, especially the second Curse of Blood. Not only the audience in the live broadcast room, but even the game media and developers watching on the spot showed curious eyes.

After the broadcast ended, the screen switched back to the main stage. Yi Chen took the microphone, bowed to the camera, and said: "Salt and Sanctuary, Curse of Blood, these are the two games that our YC Productions will release next year. thank you all."

Yi Chen didn't say the specific content of the game at the scene, it's just been announced now, so there's no need to go into too much detail, and there will be a lot of award-giving sessions going on.

It's just that Yi Chen didn't say anything, which didn't prevent the audience in the live broadcast room from discussing themselves.

[Curse of blood, this game is really about blood! 】

[I like this deformable weapon the most! 】

[It's these monsters that feel a little disgusting]

[It's okay to be disgusting, there are many people who are disgusting in Dark Souls, why don't you just play? 】

[But it will be released at the end of next year, so we have to wait another year! 】

[Play Salt and Sanctuary first, this game looks very fun! 】

At the same time, the official website of YC Productions also launched the announcement PV of the two games, and the official accounts of various social media were also released, and the number of clicks immediately surged.

Although TGA is not over yet, Yi Chen's goal has been perfectly achieved this time.

Chapter 645 Harvest, and a game that raises blood pressure

After the announcement of the new game of YC Productions, the game of the year awards continued immediately.

A series of awards, interspersed with the announcement of some programs and new games, is not boring.

Among them, Legend of Berserk naturally gained a lot. In addition to the previous best action game and best role-playing game, the two awards of best narrative and best music were also successfully won.

It can be said that apart from the award for the best game of the year, Legend of Berserk is the most rewarding game of this TGA, and YC Productions is undoubtedly the most popular manufacturer at the end of this year.

Moreover, this is not an established developer like EA and Rockstar, but a newly emerging game manufacturer in the past few years. This undoubtedly has an impact on the already basically established game manufacturer pattern.

When YC Productions developed Persona, some major manufacturers have already noticed this emerging company, and even Microsoft and Sony have thought about acquiring YC Productions.

But at this time, Yichen has already established a certain foundation, and the cooperation with Lao Ren is also very pleasant. The two sides are mutually beneficial, and they simply ignore the acquisition invitations of these big factories.

After the sales of Persona exceeded [-] million, followed by the release of games such as Dark Souls, Titanfall, and Apex, YC Productions has fully revealed both its revenue and its own development level. With a firm foothold in the industry and a place of its own, no one can ignore it, and it is even more impossible to be acquired.
