Number One Game Designer

On the third day of the E3 exhibition, Fang Xi finally got his first chance to go on stage.

This E3 exhibition starts from the third day, and there is only one main stage, and the stage of this main stage is that various producers take turns on the stage, ranging from ten minutes to an hour. This is an opportunity that everyone dreams of, to show the world your game. According to the games reported by each party, the organizer arranges the order of these games on stage. There is no intuitive standard for these arrangements. It seems more like the organizer evenly stuffs some highly anticipated masterpieces into a few days for the sake of attention. . The same is true for Fang Xi. According to the schedule sent to him by the organizer, he has two chances to appear on stage today, and one each tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. In a sense, he is very productive among the producers present.

Hongyi's own exhibition area has been set up, and there are already a group of diehard fans who have inquired about the specific location, but in Fang Xi's opinion, there are not enough people. In E3, you can see how many people are in your exhibition area. You can see whether your success or failure at E3 this time. And every opportunity to appear on stage is an opportunity to snatch the audience. The audience is like chips. The more chips you have before the end of E3, the greater your chances of success in the next game.

Standing in the background, Fang Xi glanced at the note in his hand. It was 15:00, which was the time arranged for him by the organizer. It was relatively earlier. What was talking in front of him was a game producer from France. People, a game about necromancers spreading the plague in the Middle Ages, werewolves, vampires and other traditional European elements that Fang Xi seemed sleepy.

"Hey, buddy, you're going to be on stage right in front of me, right?" At this moment, a hand patted Fang Xi's shoulder directly to startle him.

Seeing Fang Xi's reaction, the owner of this hand, a young man, smiled embarrassedly:

"Hey, it wasn't intentional, but it is said that every time E3 is a custom, the people waiting in the background will chat, emmm to relieve tension and so on, I guess."

As a seasoned veteran driver, Fang Xi didn't feel nervous, but looked a little nervous looking at this young man.

"On stage at 15 o'clock." Fang Xi shook the note in his hand.

"I'm at 15:40, oh, the organizer will give you a lot of preferential treatment, for a full 40 minutes." The young man was a little envious.

"Where are you from?" There was nothing to do, so Fang Xi chatted with him, which relieved the tension.

Some people have a strong desire to confide when they are nervous, and they use confidantes to cover up their nervousness. For example, the young man in front of Fang Xi, when Fang Xi asked him, he said everything like beans in a bamboo tube.

The Canadian, inspired by the climate of his own country, has a good idea for a survival game. On the one hand, this E3 shows it, and on the other hand, it is also to attract investment. According to him, he cannot afford the development of the game by himself. cost. In the middle, Fang Xi also took a look at his demo, which is a very stylish game.

The host on the stage was already introducing the game Left 4 Dead to warm up the game, and also reminded Fang Xi that he should be on stage now, took out his notebook and tore off a piece of paper, Fang Xi scribbled down his phone number, hurriedly Explained:

"Contact me when it's over, and I'll invest in you."

Then he stepped onto the stage under Mengxin's stunned eyes.

To Fang Xisong's relief, there are many fans of this game in Europe and America, and at the same time, many foreign students rushed to the scene to support him.

He smiled stiffly, then rubbed his face with his hands, Fang Xi smiled embarrassedly:

"sorry,

A little nervous, so let's get straight to the point. "

Simple and rude as always.

"The organizer ESA told me that I can only introduce Left 4 Dead on this stage, so let's talk about this game."

"First of all, I'm very happy to tell everyone that this shooting game, which I am personally most satisfied with so far, has officially passed the federal approval and classification." Echoing Fang Xi, there is also an M+ logo at the beginning of the CG on the back screen . "After the end of E3, this game will officially land on the North American market on July 1. I hope you will like it."

The loud cheers told Fang Xi that he was indeed very popular abroad.

"And this time, of course, it's not a remake. It's just a small news that it's coming to North America. I like E3 because I can see new things about every game here. For example, Left 4 Dead, I prepared new things."

"Super large, currently unique super large DLC, the launch date is synchronized globally, still on July 1st, this new DLC of Left 4 Dead, I named it: Battle Royale. Let's take a look at the demo The video is good, I believe the video can be more convincing than my dry language."

A demo video of the game was also shown on the screen behind him.

Skydiving, landing, searching for abundant supplies, a variety of available vehicles, the ever-shrinking safe zone, and zombie groups cruising outside the safe zone, in the end only one player can survive and win.

All first impressions of this game mechanic are, without exception, brutal. Hundreds of people only one player can win, it seems difficult?

But then the demo video showed the players a variety of ways to win, and the most intuitive way to win is the kingly way, which directly kills all other players head-on through good marksmanship and finally wins.

By searching for materials, using unique and rare materials, shielding chips and hiding outside the safe zone to act with zombies, and finally win by surprise.

There is even the luckiest start, lying down directly, and the safety zone is finally reduced to the head, lying down and winning.

In short, this is a game where only one person can survive, but you can survive through various means.

From time to time, Fang Xi would give an explanation beside him. For example, you can play all the weapons in the game in the story mode of Left 4 Dead.

For example, regarding the mode of Battle Royale, you can read the novels of Japanese novelist Hiroharu Takami to understand the connotation in detail.

For example, in this mode, Hongyi also set up a short plot, and players who are interested can discover it by themselves in this mode, etc.

In short, this is a brand new competition mode, Fang Xi encourages players to use various methods to survive, even including lies and betrayal.

As a demonstration, the trial video shows a false alliance, and then stabbed in the back, but was killed by the other player who was already prepared.

This is not a beautiful game mode, but it is refreshing enough, which is Fang Xi's definition.

This is a game mode where victory can be won by all means.

In the eyes of Pim, Afeng and other anchors, this is a good material game, because it can win in various ways. Isn't that the meaning of the existence of non-technical anchors?

In short, Fang Xi's first stage appearance seems to be very successful so far.

However, there were also some small disputes on the scene, such as whether this mode was too violent.

You must know that the original novel of Battle Royale is very controversial in Japan. Although this novel is widely circulated, it has not won any awards. It is the No. 1 classic violent literature. Banned.

But Fang Xi doesn't care about these, the problems that the players have will eventually be solved by the players themselves.
