There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

Lin Yao's solution to the list is very simple.

It is cold treatment.

And the effect of this plan...is pretty good.

After all, someone who can get Lin Yao's contact number with great powers.

Most of them tried to contact Lin Yao during the period when Linmu Studio was just rising, and thought about injecting capital to get a share of the pie.

At that time, with the assistance of Zhang Youjie, Lin Yao rejected everyone.

These people can be considered to understand Lin Yao's character.

So after Lin Yao changed the number, they knew it was useless, so they stopped harassing Lin Yao.

As for those who couldn't get contact information and came to line up at the company's gate, after being left alone for a few days, most of them also gave up.

At this point, the incident is almost over.

As for why it is almost...

Mainly the player side is a bit troublesome.

Their enthusiasm for discussion was higher than Lin Yao imagined...

"Why are these sand sculpture players still talking about this topic..."

Lin Yao sat behind her desk, looking at the players on the forum who were still talking about one wife and one son-in-law.

A little helpless.

They're still wrestling with this shit...there are posts about it all over the place.

Some people even made a crude valuation model to verify how much Linmu Studio is worth.

It's just insane.

"Senior sister, it seems that you don't understand your own charm very much."

aside.

Zhu Nianqiao looked at Lin Yao's screen with her head, then patted her on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "If you want to change me, I finally found something to care about. The protagonist looks like you, so I'm willing to discuss it... It's just the beginning, and it's estimated that for a long time to come, you won't be able to take off the hat of little rich woman. As long as you appear on the stage, someone will probably make fun of you for it.

Unless there is a stronger label that overshadows the label of rich woman, but it is estimated that the stronger label should be wife or something, and now it has appeared..."

"Go, go, what's the matter with you?"

Lin Yao turned her head and glared at Zhu Nianqiao slightly; "Also, I can't cure the players who tease me, and I can't cure you, can I?"

"Isn't it a bad reputation to avenge private revenge?"

Zhu Nianqiao shrank his neck immediately: "And I'm here to ask you for advice on the map design ideas of "Super Mario: Odyssey", and I'm not here to tease you..."

"Then you still talk so much?"

Lin Yao glanced at the occasionally unexpectedly clever girl, but most of the time she felt stupid, a bit funny.

Then she thought for a while, and pulled out a piece of drawing paper from the side.

"I'm telling the truth." Zhu Nianqiao watched Lin Yao pull out the drawing paper and poked her head again, wanting to see what Lin Yao planned to draw.

But Lin Yao hasn't written yet.

So Zhu Nianqiao was quickly attracted by Lin Yao who was sitting upright.

The first thing I saw was of course the exquisite facial features without any blemishes.

Then, it is to use mature, plump, youthful vigor to describe the beautiful body that seems to be acceptable.

In the end, Zhu Nianqiao's eyes fixed on Lin Yao's round and beautiful legs, and asked like a ghost: "Senior sister, do you really not consider wearing black silk?"

"What does this have to do with you!?"

Lin Yao suddenly raised her head, this time she directly grabbed Zhu Nianqiao's ponytail, and said angrily, "You are standing with the player, right?"

Zhu Nianqiao argued: "No, this is something that everyone will be curious about when they see it. It's normal to try to ask..."

"Not normal, don't bother me!"

Lin Yao let her go, and said angrily, "Go over there and find a chair to sit on. I'll do other things first, and I'll tell you about the map of "Super Mario: Odyssey" later."

"oh."

Zhu Nianqiao obediently pulled a chair to the side, and then sat down next to it: "Sister, what are you going to draw?"

Lin Yao ignored her.

Just paint and paint on the drawing paper.

I was reminded by Zhu Nianqiao just now.

Lin Yao also felt that she really couldn't let it go any longer.

This has been discussed again and again, and when the time comes, the label will become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and indeed it may not even be possible to remove it.

Although it seems that it can't be taken off now... But at least it can't let the players discuss and spread this name.

So she planned to release some news to divert the players' attention according to the original plan.

As for what news to post.

Certainly not new games.

Players all know that Linmu Studio is working on a new game, there is no doubt about it.

So for new games, either release all of them to give players a surprise, or not release them, and leave them as a surprise for players later.

It doesn't make much sense to give some news halfway, and the player has never played.

The new version of "World of Warcraft"... can be released.

But now players are playing the first official version in full swing... many people haven't figured it out yet.

Announcing the new version now will only make players impetuous and consume the life cycle of the game.

This is an online game, and it's not necessary.

So finally.

Lin Yao thought about it.

There is only one game left that can release news.

That's the sequel to Dark Souls.

This game has a previous base, and most players have played it.

Linmu Studio is indeed working on a sequel, and it can just be revealed that it is regarded as the vanguard of Linmu Studio's game lineup in the second half of the year.

certainly.

Can't say it directly - we are going to make a sequel~

Although the effect of doing this is there, the effect of diverting attention is definitely not very good, and the enthusiasm of the players for discussion is probably not too high.

So Lin Yao specially drew a picture.

Then after dismissing Zhu Nianqiao, he found the staff again, dug out "Dark Soul" that had been on sale for a long time, inserted a small update, and added a small easter egg to the production staff list.

Then, she specially asked a staff member with an official social media account to post an old picture of "Dark Soul".

And added an ambiguous sentence - [The bell is ringing again! Wake up! 】

After everything is done.

Then she went to the console product department to discuss the map design of "Super Mario: Odyssey" with Zhu Nianqiao.

Thanks to the current reputation of Linmu Studio is big enough.

Lin Yao just finished it.

first timing.

Some players noticed the highly instructive blog post on the social account of Linmu Studio...

Then.

The little easter egg that Lin Yao stuffed was also found.

[After reading the blog post, I felt that Linmu Studio was implying something, so I ran to reopen "Dark Soul", played for a while, and clicked all the options on the home page again, and I found something new, haha . 】

Such a post.

In the evening of the same day, it appeared in a player community.

And soon, it was spread out.

The main content of the post is actually a picture.

The source is the credits for Dark Souls.

Because there was not enough preparation time, Lin Yao only drew one picture.

But this picture is matched with the highly instructive blog post on the social account of Linmu Studio.

It's enough for players to make up their minds.

on the picture.

Inside the church-like building, white candles brought a little bit of fire, and a knight in heavy armor knelt on one knee and raised his right arm forward.

In his palm, a small flame was beating.

In front of the knight was a woman wearing a white crown and a black robe. She turned her back to the knight, maintaining a posture of wanting to turn her head.

That's all there is to the picture.

Players know it when they see it.

This is the painting style of Black Soul!

And the players are sure that the female character in the picture has never shown up in the game.

Such a picture is matched with the blog post posted by the official social account of Linmu Studio.

It's hard not to be reminiscent.

A sequel to Dark Souls... is it coming?

Because of the guidance of 'Uncle Lin', and the game itself is famous for its maliciousness.

"Dark Soul" is a game in China, let's not talk about how many players have played it.

But at least, almost everyone who knows Linmu Studio knows such a game... a game full of Lin Yao's malice.

So after the picture is found, there are really many people who are willing to discuss it.

The focus of most players' discussions is, of course, - is the game going to be a sequel?

And their enthusiasm... is high.

A picture can be analyzed clearly and logically...

They even plan to analyze the story of the sequel from the photos...

"Is it a sequel? It must be a sequel, right?"

"It should be a sequel, but whether it's passing the fire or putting it out, it's the end, right? What should this sequel be about?"

"After passing the fire, the fire of the world is about to go out again? Then the bell rings again?"

"Okay, it's going to spread the fire bitterly again, so you're going to catch us undead and squeeze them to death?"

"This time there is a beautiful girl!"

"Don't... How miserable will a beautiful girl in the world view of the black soul be..."

"But there must be a female character in the picture, and she is still a white hair! It should be pretty good-looking, but I don't know what the role of this character in the sequel is? The fireproof girl in the previous game? The boiler room?"

"God tm look at the boiler room!"

"Is this really a sequel?"

"It hasn't been announced directly, but I guess it is, this is a hint and an easter egg..."

"..."

Discuss with the players.

Even Lin Yao's goal has been achieved.

At least many people no longer hold on to the son-in-law...

Directly announcing the news of the sequel will not have this effect.

After all, the sequel was announced with great fanfare, and the players 'discovered' clues, feeling that they had insight into the hints given by the game company.

'Importance' is not the same.

time goes by.

As the news of the sequel to "Dark Soul" was spread.

At the same time, in "World of Warcraft", more and more players came to the top level of the version, and the dungeon competition between the top unions at home and abroad became more and more intense.

About the rich list.

It's finally over.

And Lin Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, it seems that the impact is still quite large... At least she wants to take the subway again, maybe it won't work.

...

early September.

The people who lined up to harass Lin Yao at the gate of Lin Mu's studio finally disappeared.

After all, this is not Lin Yao's previous life. When something becomes a hot topic recognized by the public, everyone will run after it.

Until the whole thing is chewed up and putrefied, forgotten in a corner.

The speed of information dissemination here is not so fast.

Although this also means... After the heat rises, the speed of calming down will be very slow.

But it was finally over.

Lin Yao was also able to put aside this matter and devote herself to her work wholeheartedly.

"I always feel that this generation of BOSS is more oppressive."

video department.

Qi Jianhua leaned on the back of the chair and accompanied Lin Yao after watching the CG of the sequel to "Dark Soul", feeling a little emotional.

Although CG is what he did right.

But the storyboard was drawn by Lin Yao.

"After all, there is always something new to give players."

Lin Yao raised her head and looked away from the screen: "If the sequel has to do everything the same as the first generation, then it's a change of skin."

In fact.

Lin Yao's "Dark Souls 3" in her previous life is the culmination of the entire Dark Souls series.

Maybe it was also mixed with the experience of the old thief working on "Bloodline".

Plus, technology improves all the time.

In terms of overall perception, "Dark Soul 3" will definitely be better than the first generation of "Dark Soul".

certainly.

Some players also think so.

The third generation is too commercial, too flashy, without the taste of pure black soul.

But still that sentence.

Whether it is a game or a person, after all, we must move forward.

And the reason why Lin Yao came to see CG this time.

The main reason is that the news that "Dark Soul" is going to be a sequel has already been released.

Those new games are fine.

Although the sequel of this popular work represents a stable fan base, it also represents some fans of the previous work, who will use a magnifying glass to examine the game...

In addition, in order to divert attention, Lin Yao did a little marketing.

Therefore, in order not to be criticized by verbal criticism when the game comes.

Of course she had to watch.

In fact.

She just came over from the game project team, and she went through Guda...

"Okay, the CG is perfect."

Lin Yao looked at the CG again, nodded in satisfaction, and then asked another question: "How is your CG film project going?"

"Still in casting."

Qi Jianhua scratched his head: "I haven't found a suitable person for a while, although the company I cooperated with pushed a lot of people..."

"How about Lu Xiu?"

Lin Yao casually mentioned her personal name.

This is also the only female artist she knows.

"She doesn't have short hair, does she?"

Qi Jianhua thought for a while and replied, "And it's not easy to explain to our partner?"

"You want to see whether the person is suitable or not. Why do you look at the face of the partner? The IP is our own, and the producer is also ours. The dominance is in your hands. And this is a CG movie, not a live-action film and television drama. What's wrong with the long hair? "

Lin Yao was a little helpless: "Didn't you forget that what we need is a motion capture actor?"

For the CG movie this time, Linmu Studio didn't do it all by itself.

A few minutes of CG and film are two different things.

So after thinking about it for a while, Lin Yao still brought in two partners.

This matter is not difficult to talk about, after all, to put it bluntly, the IP power of Linmu Studio is still great.

plus.

A "Witch" directly made Lu Xiu's dazzling achievements stand out.

Most people in the industry know this.

Linmu Studio just made a start, saying that it is going to try to make a CG movie that will be released at the same time as the game and is of a publicity nature.

The heads of the two partners were moved.

In the follow-up, there were even a bunch of companies who heard the news and wanted to give money to the project.

but.

It's not the same field after all.

So it was a bit slow to get in touch with the two partners.

"Of course I haven't forgotten..."

When Qi Jianhua heard Lin Yao's words, he subconsciously replied.

Then he glanced at Lin Yao's expression and smiled: "Okay, I get it, hehe, I feel relieved with your words."

"Well, don't worry too much. Our final destination is the game. If you really can't let it go, you might as well regard this CG movie as a super long game promotional video... and then just follow the game CG process. Well, if you need to discuss with Zhong Xiu, you should go to discuss it, if you need to go to the motion capture studio, you should go to the motion capture studio."

Lin Yao could also guess that he had concerns.

After all, the other party is a professional film and television company.

But in Lin Yao's opinion.

no need.

...

Lin Yao stayed in the video department for more than 20 minutes, chatting with Qi Jianhua about CG movies.

The project is now officially launched.

However, Lin Yao has been busy with games and mobile phones recently.

So we can only learn about the progress from his mouth.

After a while, she will go and see for herself.

Ask about the CG movie.

Lin Yao returned to her office, and then wondered if it was time to consider the game's debut in the second half of the year.

Kang Yi.

The person in charge of the mobile game department knocked on the door and walked in.

"Boss, the two mobile games are already ready to run, do you want to try them?"

As soon as Kang Yi saw Lin Yao, he immediately raised the phone in his hand and shouted excitedly.

"Okay, trouble."

Lin Yao froze for a moment, then stretched out her fair little hand.

Kang Yi handed the phone to Lin Yao, and excitedly said: "Boss, the design ideas of these games are really amazing! I thought the games would be boring, but I didn't expect them to be so interesting in practice! The built-in mini-games of other mobile phone brands are much more interesting! No...it’s not the same thing at all.”

Lin Yao blinked, did not speak, but took the phone and woke up the screen directly.

Then, she slid her finger across the screen and found the game that Kang Yi said could run.

One is "Fruit Ninja" and the other is "Temple Run".

Lin Yao looked at the two familiar icons on the phone screen, couldn't help but smile, and then opened the "Temple Run" in it.

Games start.

A familiar picture appeared on the small screen.

An adventurer came to an ancient temple to hunt for treasure, but was chased by a monster.

He starts to run away.

And behind him.

A monster on all fours is chasing after the ass.

As the camera rotates, the control of the adventurer comes to the player.

Operation is very simple.

It can be controlled by the gyroscope of the mobile phone, or by sliding the screen with fingers.

turn.

jump.

sliding shovel.

The purpose of the game is very simple, which is to avoid obstacles in four directions, collect gold coins while advancing, and get higher scores.

But the gameplay is simple and simple, but full of fun.

Lin Yao held the phone in her left hand, and then gently swipe the screen with her right finger.

The whole process of playing is very smooth.

Whether it's sensitivity or smoothness.

Lin Yao specially played for a while.

Feeling that the phone didn't heat up, he was completely relieved.

next.

It's pure play time.

Lin Yao is pretty good, but always dies.

She comes back again and again.

Then as she played, a smile appeared on her beautiful and round face.

Some nostalgia.

ahead.

Kang Yi waited patiently, watching Lin Yao play while watching Lin Yao.

Seeing Lin Yao's white face suddenly burst into a smile, it was like melting ice and snow.

His face suddenly flushed red, as if he was embarrassed to look at it again, and turned his head away.

Lin Yao didn't know what the other party was thinking.

She really misses it.

previous life.

As technology advances, mobile games diversify.

This game has long since been swept to the trash heap.

Few people play, and there are very few people who will play again.

Even the game itself has changed, with all kinds of krypton gold props and advertisements.

She hasn't touched her for a long time...

However, she still remembers the first time she used a flip phone to play Snake, and after having her first smartphone, she was so excited to play these games.

What brand of smartphone did you use at the time?

Um……

It seems to be Xiaomi Mi 1 Youth Edition...

At the time, she remembered buying it with money from a summer job.

When the phone is running the game, it will get hot.

The user experience is far from good.

But as someone who has witnessed the rise of smartphones firsthand.

He went from a flip phone that could only play Snake to a smartphone, and then to a full-screen phone.

The games that are accessed from the hardware of mobile phones are also changing all the way.

Pixel to 3D.

Draw cards to MOBA.

Shoot to cosplay.

Games are becoming more and more diverse, and the experience is getting better and better.

But when it comes to playing mobile games, I feel happy.

It seems to be the game I played when I first came into contact with a smartphone... a little more fun.

Wen Qing is also good.

Feelings are also good.

And that seems to be the case.

"..."

The adventurer controlled by Lin Yao died again.

this time.

Instead of continuing to play Temple Run, she tried Fruit Ninja again.

After playing for a while.

She raised her head, with emotion on her face, and looked at Kang Yi: "Very good...how are the other games?"

"The stand-alone game is okay, and it is steadily advancing, but "Hearthstone" with dual-port login and data sharing has encountered some troubles."

Kang Yi gave a general explanation, and then said with a little embarrassment: "But I am working with the 'Kaishan Research Office' to solve these problems."

"Okay, I just asked a question."

Lin Yao smiled at him: "Come on, please... Besides, let me leave this phone for now."

"good."

Kang Yi nodded, then turned and left without hesitation.

Lin Yao watched the other party leave, then looked down at the phone in her hand again.

In her previous life, these games left a deep impression on her.

But then.

Software is software and hardware is hardware.

Developers are different.

A variety of mobile phone models make the game experience different.

perhaps.

This time, Linmu Studio, as the developer, may be able to solve this problem.

Even if it can't be solved, it should be able to give players the best experience on this mobile phone of Linmu Studio.

Um.

So, these games should also leave the same deep impression on the players here as she did?

Boom——

At this time.

There was a knock on the door.

Lin Yao regained her senses and raised her head again.

Mu Wanqing appeared in the office.

She closed the door gently, and immediately said: "Lin Yao, the organizer of the Global Game Awards invited..."

"Miss Mu!"

Lin Yao directly interrupted Mu Wanqing, stood up suddenly, pulled her to her seat, and then pressed her shoulders to let her sit down.

Mu Wanqing was at a loss, not knowing what Lin Yao wanted to do.

But he sat down on the chair obediently.

"What's wrong?"

until after sitting down.

Mu Wanqing just raised her head, her bright and delicate face looked at Lin Yao with some doubts.

"It's a fun game for you."

Lin Yao mysteriously stuffed the phone into Mu Wanqing's hand.

On the other hand, he bent down slightly, supported his knees with his hands, raised his buttocks, and looked at Mu Wanqing Wan.

The girl breathed out like blue.

A faint warm breath lingered in his ears.

Mu Wanqing couldn't help but brushed her hair on her temples, and she turned to Lin Yao's side unobtrusively, before looking at the phone.

game?

Mu Wanqing showed a puzzled look.

And soon.

She is addicted to...

...

at the same time.

"Is there a sequel to "Dark Soul" for this year's works of Linmu Studio...?"

Frank, who was far away in North America, also knew about the easter eggs of "Dark Soul".

As for why he cares about it.

very simple.

The annual Black Friday and Christmas is coming again...

The current game circle.

No one can ignore the competitor of Linmu Studio.
