Chapter 317 One wears four? Invitation to the world’s four major game awards!(1/2)
Soon, the development work on "Two People Go Together" was put on the agenda.
After all, there is no content currently being developed for Golden Wind.
Gold Experience Studio is busy making post-production optimization adjustments and content updates for Overwatch, and Steel Finger is busy contacting Neon Mysterious Man to prepare for the new project.
And externally.
Needless to say, Yunwei, Kaunike has nothing else to do every day, and all he has to do every day is deal with the company's stock price with a stern face.
The impact of this fiasco was so great that he no longer dared to have any additional thoughts about the Golden Wind for at least half a year. After all, he was now a clay bodhisattva crossing the river, and he could not save himself.
but!
It is said that when the gourd is pressed down, the gourd is lifted up.
Yunwei's side temporarily stopped, but Comella on the other side, after experiencing the fiasco of "Torii", regained its position through a game similar to Sekiro.
This game called "Night Owl" is also set in the Warring States Period. It is based on the struggle between the two major forces, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu. It uses magic modification to integrate the strange elements of neon monsters.
Based on the Romance of the Gods of China, we created a samurai protagonist who kept his loyalty in troubled times, and used him as the starting point to lead to the battle of Komaki Nagakute between Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
The overall model of the game is based on Sekiro, but it continues the industrial level that Torii is only recognized for.
Although in terms of action design, "Night Owl" is still no match for "Sekiro" with its action assistance system.
But in terms of playability and rich content of the game, it has far exceeded the failed "Torii".
Even the well-known evaluation media SNG (Neon) said with regret after giving it a score of 9.1 - If Night Owl and Sekiro had competed on the same stage, then even if Comella failed, it would not be as good as
It was like that at the beginning, and it collapsed thousands of miles. But the question is, if there is no wolf, where would the night owl come from? Perhaps it is time for Comella to humbly ask for advice and learn from the most dazzling supernova designer in the world today, Gu Sheng...
…
Of course!
No matter what the media says.
Night Owl's success undoubtedly gave Comella a sigh of relief, which had been plagued by failures.
And this time, Masaichi Nakamura, who produced Nite Owl, was naturally promoted to fill the vacancy of Koizumi Studio and became one of the new heads of Gosanjia Peak Studio after Nishikawa.
That’s it!
The original three established royal families—Yamamoto, Koizumi, and Takasugi.
In just one and a half years, two of them have gone away.
Yamamoto Studio was replaced by Nishikawa Studio, with Nishikawa Jiro as the head.
Koizumi Studio was replaced by Nakamura Studio, with Nakamura Shoichi as the head.
The only "old man" left is Takasugi Studio, headed by Takasugi Suke.
In fact, at this point, the position of "head of the three imperial families" that once obsessed both Yamamoto and Koizumi is within easy reach for Takasugi.
But Takasugi didn't want it.
He thought this thing was unlucky.
Moreover, Takasugi Studio has always been responsible for the development of Comela motion racing games.
Although racing is also one of the three major categories of gun racing, it is the smallest among the three categories.
His target studio has always been Hua Guo’s Fury Games.
As for the golden wind...
Takasugi really can't raise any hostility, and even because of Moritani's relationship, he has three respects for this supernova designer Gu Sheng who was born in China.
"...So let's leave the head of the three imperial families to their descendants to fight for. I will just be an ordinary director in a down-to-earth manner. It's quite good."
In the office, Gao Shan chatted with his deputy and said with a smile:
"Besides, I think Nakamura, who was recently hired as a replacement, is very interested."
"indeed,"
Hearing this, the deputy nodded and filled the teacup:
"Nakamura has been very close to the president recently. After all, he has just reversed the decline with "Night Owl" and stabilized his position. It is said that he is applying for the development permission for the sequel to "Silent Hill"."
"silent Hill?"
Hearing this, Gao Shan's hands trembled, he almost spilled his tea and grinned.
The heart says that the misfortune of Comora began in Silent Hill.
If it hadn't been for that idiot Tsuna Yamamoto who had persuaded Koshi Keimasa to pocket all the "development proceeds" of Silent Hill and kick out the Golden Wind.
There will be no rift between them and the Golden Wind.
If there is no dispute, Gu Sheng's version of Silent Hill can dominate the market with the same attitude as the original "Escape".
After that, through further close cooperation, the two parties can join hands to step out of Asia and launch an impact on Yunwei-Vivendi, which is standing on top of the world.
You know, the "Overwatch" produced by Golden Wind alone has severely damaged the arrogant Yunwei, and they still haven't recovered from this.
If it were true that Golden Wind and Comella would cooperate.
It won't take too long, at least two or three years, before Comora and Yunwei can truly keep pace with each other, and truly realize the two worlds in the global game industry and compete with each other.
pity.
All of this was cut off by the short-sighted Yamamoto Tsuna and the Kamigoshi Kagemasa who only cared about immediate interests.
It can be said.
Comella's misfortune began with "Silent Hill".
Now, Nakamura, who has just been promoted to one of the three royal families, is going to bring up the past and prepare to develop a sequel to "Silent Hill"?
"Because there are recent rumors that Golden Wind is working to obtain the copyright for a horror game,"
The deputy said:
"And it is said that the current progress is quite smooth. If nothing else happens, this work should be Golden Wind's work to prepare for the E3 game exhibition at the end of September this year."
hiss--
As soon as these words came out, Gao Shan suddenly realized.
yes.
Nowadays, Golden Wind is already a medium-sized game manufacturer. Starting from the previous Neon Dongjin Video Game Festival, the booths of the four major game exhibitions have opened their real doors to them.
The pace of the golden wind will never stop.
The project they are currently in contact with, based on the development time, is very likely to be an important project for Golden Wind to participate in E3.
Obviously, Nakamura is also aware of this.
Therefore, taking advantage of the success of "Night Owl", he is ready to launch "Silent Hill", a once-failed IP, and set out to start a new round of showdown with Golden Wind.
"The idea is good, but Golden Wind is no longer the small company that could be manipulated by others,"
After taking a sip of tea, Takasugi raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a noncommittal look:
"Even Yunwei now regards him as a thorn in his side. It's not that easy to conquer the current Golden Wind."
"What's more, have they been shortlisted for GDCA recently..."
GDCA!
Global Game Developers Conference Choice Award.
As one of the four major game awards in the world, GDCA is one of the super awards in the global game industry selected by the GDC (Global Game Developers Conference) organizing committee through comprehensive indicators such as gameplay, number of players, and media feedback.
one.
It is tied with the Golden Joystick Award, DICE (Global Society for Interactive Arts and Sciences Award), and TGA (Global Game of the Year Award), which are also four major awards.
These awards are usually awarded to medium and large game manufacturers.
then!
Golden Wind, which now ranks among the ranks of medium-sized game manufacturers, naturally became one of the invited manufacturers of GDCA.
However, due to the original release date of Sekiro, it happened to be within the range where Golden Wind became a mid-sized game manufacturer and the GDC organizing committee confirmed Golden Wind’s qualifications.
Therefore, the only games shortlisted by Golden Wind for this award are "Apex Kingdom" and "Overwatch".
But these two games are a bit embarrassing.
It can even be said that if "Sekiro" is participating, there is no doubt that the best game of the year at GDCA this year will definitely be Sekiro, which has received overwhelming reviews from players and media ratings.
But the problem is that the two games currently participating in the competition are "Apex Kingdom" and "Overwatch".
Both games have a very fatal and embarrassing problem——
There is no plot.
The plot mentioned here refers to the main storyline like Sekiro, rather than the Overwatch-style background story.
