Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

932

At a friends party held by a family in Japan, several people are gathering around a game console to watch one of them play a game.

Most of these people who are watching are people who haven't had much exposure to video games before.

Usually what they often do is to do something that they think is meaningful, while video games are considered meaningless by them and their families.

But at the gathering of friends, we just want to find something interesting to do, and watching other people play games seems to be a very interesting thing, because they have never played video games in the past, and they suddenly see such a realistic video game world. Sometimes, there will be a trance illusion.

At this moment, a person walked over curiously not far away, and after carefully distinguishing the game on the screen, he showed some surprise and a little bit of contempt.

"Huh? Are you playing Assassin's Creed?"

"yes."

"Well, it's indeed called Assassin's Creed. This game is still very good."

The person who asked the question nodded: "It's really not bad, but to be honest, this game is somewhat too formulaic. Under such a formula, this game loses a little bit of charm, but of course it can still be regarded as a good game."

At the moment this person is playing Brotherhood, the second installment in the Assassin's Creed Ezio trilogy.

With more and more games developed by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has not even released the number of the game to iterate, and can only rely on the players to name itself.

Anyway, Youxing Electronic Entertainment just doesn't count to 2 by yourself, and you don't have a temper.

At the beginning, many people rumored that Dragon Quest was suspended after the tenth volume, probably because they did not want to encounter the number 12 of Dragon Quest.

But then Final Fantasy directly came out with 12, which surprised everyone for a long time.

Final Fantasy can be released to 12, because Zhu Youxing himself quite recognizes this 12th generation of works. In this world, it is quite rare for a series of games to be released to the twelfth with fingers.

In addition to Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, there are only one or two games from Surui Electronics and Brown Entertainment that can reach this record.

Several people who were watching the game looked back at the people who just commented on Assassin's Creed.

"Asakusa, have you played this game before?"

The person who is called Asakusa said a little proudly: "Of course, I have played quite a lot of games. My father grew up playing games when he was young. Of course, I want to inherit my father's business. "

Someone immediately complained in a low voice: "Is this how the son inherits the father's business?"

After boasting, Asakusa immediately said: "I told you that it is also possible to play a game like Assassin's Creed, but this game has released three works in a row, and there will be one a year in the future, and it seems that the plan will be one a year in the future. The efficiency of launching games, this kind of game that is released once a year seems to be a bit rushed, in fact, it is even a bit of a loss to play."

"Then do you have game recommendations?"

"Of course, you seem to have never played video games in the past, so my first recommendation is definitely Super Mario."

Someone immediately said energetically: "Oh, I've heard of this name. This game seems to be quite famous in the game circle."

"Hey, how can it be quite famous? This series of games is simply world-dominating. In the past, every time this series of games was launched, it set records!"

"Then do you have any other game recommendations?"

Asakusa asked: "What kind of game do you want to play?"

One of them looked at the TV screen and said, "It's like Assassin's Creed, I think it's cool."

Asakusa immediately said: "What's the point of playing this game? The game is so cool that it can't be eaten. Now the industry has recognized that Assassin's Creed is a formulaic 'canned' game. In the future, other game companies will not limit this kind of game. Production, you actually don’t need to play such a game at all.”

At this time, the person who was playing Assassin's Creed put down the handle, and someone was mocking the game he was playing, and he couldn't help it anymore.

"Asakusa, you guys don't know anything about Assassin's Creed."

"Why don't I understand." Asakusa said with a light smile, "The Assassin's Creed series of games has long been recognized as a learning benchmark for open-ended canned games in the game industry. template."

Asakusa answered without hesitation.

However, judging from his fifteen-year-old age, it is indeed not normal for him to start analyzing the internal affairs of the video game industry like an adult.

But the truth is, these are indeed not his opinions, but what people discuss in the game forums he usually likes to watch.

It was a forum for a game review website. The people in it spoke fiercely and continued to study the trends in the game industry.

There always seemed to be something for them to point to.

The kid playing Assassin's Creed blushed and was very unconvinced, then he suddenly remembered something, and immediately said: "Then you never know that the next work of Assassin's Creed will be released before Christmas this year. It will be a new and innovative work, and some new mechanisms will be added."

"A brand new mechanism? I don't believe it."

"Just wait and see!"

...

Time moved forward to December 2014, and Assassin's Creed was released on time as scheduled.

This did not surprise people in the industry, because this series of games is a standard industrial game template, which tells game developers that such development can represent the basic capabilities of a game company.

In other words, Assassin's Creed is the bottom line for Youxing Electronic Entertainment to demonstrate the overall strength of a company.

If they can also develop this standard Assassin's Creed like Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, then even if they have entered the ranks of upper-level game development companies, they have the opportunity to get a bigger share of the game development cake.

And if the development ability is not enough to make Assassin's Creed, then it can only hover in the middle and lower reaches of the game industry, unless there are occasional hit games among independent games in the original world.

"President, today is the release date of Youxing Electronic Entertainment's Assassin's Creed, shall we buy a copy and experience it?"

The head of the game development division of Su Rui Electronics personally accompanied Ueto Hayakawa to inspect the development progress of his department's games and game console-related products.

Not long ago, it was reported that Youxing Electronics Entertainment will launch a new generation of next-generation home game consoles instead of portable devices like the Switch. Naturally, Su Rui Electronics is not far behind, because if it falls behind in this area, the sales of video games will definitely increase. discount.

"Assassin's Creed? Is it the formulaic game from Youxing Electronic Entertainment?"

"That's right, President."

"What do you think?"
