Chapter 275 New channels, new games
On November 3, when everyone thought that the channel war initiated by Chen Mo had come to an end and Chen Mo won a complete victory, a piece of news caused a stir again.
Dichao Interactive Entertainment and Shenhuan Game Platform announced that it will reach a strategic cooperation and share channel resources. All games published on any of these two platforms will automatically be launched on another platform and can also obtain recommended locations.
In addition, more than a dozen other small channels have also joined the alliance between the Dichao Interactive Entertainment and the Shenhuan Game Platform.
In other words, Dichao Interactive Entertainment and Shenhuan Game Platform took the lead in integrating resources from all small channels and establishing a very large intermodal transport platform.
All games published on any of the above gaming platforms will be launched simultaneously on other gaming platforms, and it is possible to get a very powerful recommendation position: omni-channel recommendation.
If a game is lucky enough to get the recommendation, it means that it will also get the home page recommendation position of all the above game platforms. This recommendation effect is terrifying.
Originally, the Thunder Game Platform was the third largest game platform in China, and the number of users in its hands was not completely crushed compared to the Dichao Game Platform and the Shenhuan Game Platform. However, after these channel dealers united to establish a large intermodal platform, the resource comparison between the two parties was suddenly opened.
Although neither Dichao Interactive Entertainment nor Shenhua Game Platform mentioned any words about "Thunder Game Platform", it is obvious that this action was a counterattack. Faced with a strong disruptor, these old channel dealers had to unite to protect their own interests.
The situation has become confusing again.
...
The headquarters of the Imperial Dynasty Interactive Entertainment.
In Lin Zhaoxu's office, three S-level designers were all here very rarely.
Qiujiang and Yan Zhenyuan were sitting on the sofa, while Qin Xiao was sitting on the single sofa on one side, with his feet carelessly tilted on the coffee table in front of him.
Lin Zhaoxu said: "You all know about omnichannel intermodal transport."
Yan Zhenyuan nodded: "I understand."
Qiu Jiang played with his nails boredly: "How could he not know about it because of such a big sensation?"
Lin Zhaoxu nodded: "Well, I called you here this time for this matter. Let me just say it. From now on, the omni-channel intermodal transport is progressing very smoothly. Ding Xing gritted his teeth and sacrificed a lot of interests to promote this cooperation. But overall, it is a good thing for us and the Shenhuan game platform."
"The most critical issue now is that we need a critical game to show the power of this new platform to players and independent designers."
Qin Xiao is interested: "New game?"
Lin Chaoxu nodded: "Yes, Ding Xing also talked to Liu Yuanfeng in private, hoping that Zen Interactive Entertainment can also produce a competitive boutique game. Of course, the same is true for our Dichao."
"This time, we will release 3 to 5 new games, and then compete internally. The two best ones will receive the strongest recommendations from all channels. That is to say, at that time, except for the Thunder Game Platform, all game platforms will see these two new games."
Qin Xiao, Qiu Jiang and Yan Zhenyuan all listened carefully. Obviously, this was also a very good opportunity for them.
Lin Zhaoxu continued: "The game we are going to make this time must be a super hit, that is, we must capture the most players to the greatest extent."
Qin Xiao thought for a moment: "Where is the platform?"
Lin Zhaoxu said: "There is no limit on the platform, but in terms of game types, it is definitely not a simple game like chess and cards. Even if a game pushes the number of players very high, it doesn't make sense."
Qiujiang thought for a while: "That should be mmorpg, it's my strength."
Qin Xiao said: "That's not necessarily the case. There are also many players in China with fps games."
Qiu Jiang glanced at him: "But FPS games generally do not use VR and PC dual-ends, mmorpg can use dual-ends."
Qin Xiao: “…”
Lin Zhaoxu said: "The three platforms have their own advantages. The mobile platform has the most players and is the easiest to promote. The VR platform is easier to make high-quality works. The PC platform is relatively more compromised."
Yan Zhenyuan nodded: "Yes, but at present, if you want to capture the most user base, it is still the world of mmorpg, especially if you can do VR and PC dual-ends, the advantage is too great."
Qin Xiao shook his head: "I don't think so. The three more successful RPGs in China, "Legend of the Sword", "Yuan God's Order" and "Yizhakka" and "Yizang Three Kingdoms" have been struggling for so long, but no one has killed anyone. Want to appear a new mmorpg to completely kill these three games and unify the mmorpg market? I think this possibility is slim."
Lin Zhaoxu asked Qiujiang: "What do you think? Does mmorpg still have room for development?"
Qiujiang pondered for a moment and said, "This is hard to say. Judging from the current operation of "Yues of the Moon God", mmorpg still has a lot to do. However, if you want to make a game that can take over the entire mmorpg game market, it will have to meet at least two conditions."
"First, comprehensive improvements in technical level, artistic performance, etc. Second, there are major innovations in gameplay and worldview architecture."
"As far as the current situation is concerned, the technical level and artistic performance cannot be improved in all aspects, so the only opportunity lies in the gameplay and worldview."
Qin Xiao interrupted, "That is, there is no chance, because mmorpg will basically not have any major gameplay innovation in the short term. As for the world view, I have not seen any particularly powerful ones at the moment."
Qiu Jiang rolled his eyes at him.
Lin Zhaoxu said: "It doesn't matter, don't worry. No one can assert what the next game will dominate the domestic game market will be. You can also think more about it, and you may not necessarily limit your thinking to mmorpg. For example, I found a good prototype of the game abroad two days ago."
Lin Zhaoxu said, and called out a video from his laptop.
"What is this? Isn't this "Warcraft"?"
Qin Xiao, Qiu Jiang and Yan Zhenyuan were all a little surprised.
Lin Zhaoxu shook his head: "No, this is an RPG map in "Warcraft", called cog, the Battle of Gods."
The three of them carefully watched the entire process of the video.
Lin Zhaoxu said: "According to internal news, the author of this picture has decided to cooperate with GA to build Cog into an independent game that is separated from the existence of "Warcraft".
Qin Xiao frowned slightly: "ga? Will they like such a simple picture? And is it a picture derived from "Warcraft"?"
No wonder Qin Xiao was confused.
ga is a very famous game developer, with its full name geniusart. It can rank among the top three in the entire European and American region. It can be said to be a veritable industry giant.
Judging from the video, cog is a rpg map that is completely attached to Warcraft, so its perspective is also the third-person God perspective.
Moreover, the content of the game is not rich, and it is fighting back and forth on a picture. The only thing worthy of praise is that its heroes and equipment system is relatively complex.
