""Living to Death", a love letter from the dead to the living."
"Highly recommended, a thousand years of solitude, just for your arrival."
"It's fun, no explanation."
"The only drawback of the game is that it's actually a horror game. Well, the game is a little short, which is quite scary."
"Alpha my daughter!"
"Upstairs, you are my father-in-law!"
"Get out! You cyber copper smelting addict!"
"Get lost! Alpha is thousands of years older than us!"
"The game producer Fang Cheng is definitely a genius, but he also shows his unparalleled bad taste. "Second Son of the Forest" has shown his genius in scene construction, and "Born to Death" has shown his talent in scene construction. Excellent in terms of plot. However, the name of the former is a tragedy, and the genre of the latter is simply a disaster. But if you let me say, the more such evil geniuses, the better."
On the bed, Fang Cheng looked at the comments on the steam platform and felt a little weird.
Tens of thousands of recommendations directly pushed the game to the "Specially Positive" position, which shows that most players find the game very fun.
The Water Vapor platform even gave a small space, which can be regarded as a free promotion.
But……
What he wants to do is obviously a horror game!
Huge behemoths should bring an indescribable sense of oppression, the helpless climbing process should be full of danger and oppression, and frequent failures should make players frustrated.
But why...
Do you think this game is very healing and the characters are cute?
Is it really so difficult to unify our understanding of fun?
Just when Fang Cheng was frowning and thinking, a call came in.
Finding it was Teacher Shen, Fang Cheng answered the phone and heard Teacher Shen's excited voice.
"Fang Cheng, I really belong to you!"
"Teacher Shen, I..."
"I thought you wanted to make a horror game, but I didn't expect to make a platform jumping game. You are still a little humorous, but don't do it next time."
"I do..."
"This talent of yours cannot be wasted. Just let that stupid guy die because he has no vision. A guy who only cares about money is not qualified to manage a genius like you. I'm going to persuade Tianyi to set up a new studio, and you can be the director." Producer."
"But……"
"Don't want to go? Oh, I understand. It's really uncomfortable to work for others. How about this, I'll help you apply for an office, and you can open a studio by yourself. I still have some respect for loans, so I can help you apply for an interest-free loan. , it’s considered support for the newcomers. It’s okay if you don’t pay it back, I’ll pay it back for you.”
"..."
"Recruit a few more people and build a big one. And don't make free games. Games have to charge money."
Fang Cheng finally found an opportunity and quickly asked: "Why do you need to collect money?"
Through the phone, Fang Cheng could feel the other party's confusion.
Half a minute later, Teacher Shen said: "You can't dig other people's roads."
After Teacher Shen’s explanation, Fang Cheng finally understood.
Games are actually very expensive.
Even though AI technology is very advanced, art costs money, programming costs money, planning costs money, and the cost of trial and error in developing a gameplay is also money.
Some people can use love to generate electricity, but most gamers regard games as a job, and normal free services will not affect their jobs.
But Fangcheng is an exception.
Ultra-high game quality will impact the game market and create a not-so-good effect.
When a new game appears, others will point to Fangcheng's game and say: "There are no free games that are fun yet. How dare you charge money?"
Although some junk games will be delisted as a result, more than 90% of gamers will be finished as a result, which will ultimately be a devastating blow to the gaming industry.
"When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when the people are upright, there will be no disciples. The same is true for playing games. Proper bubbles are healthy. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Fang Cheng was convinced.
If we don’t say that the older generation of gamers are great, they understand the principles of economics clearly.
Teacher Shen acted vigorously and resolutely. Not long after, he was asked to go to the bank, and half an hour later, an interest-free loan of 500,000 yuan was credited to his account.
In order not to put too much pressure on Fang Cheng, Teacher Shen did not pay directly, but applied for a loan.
This is not only a mentoring relationship, but also the expectations of the older generation of gamers for the new generation.
In addition, Teacher Shen also helped Fang Cheng apply for a two-year rent-free office building. The location of the floor is a bit coincidental. It happens to be opposite Tianyi's empty studio, so you can see each other when you look up.
After knowing this, Teacher Shen was still a little embarrassed. After calling Fang Cheng, he said that if he didn't like it, he could change it. You were welcome.
But Fang Cheng didn't care and declined.
The office building is ready-made. Although Fang Cheng said it would not be as big as a whole floor, Teacher Shen said it would be free and he would use it first.
The computers were also from Teacher Shen’s previous studio. These computers were 80% new. They were said to be borrowed, but in fact they were given. They even sent a batch of computer desks and gaming chairs, which was equivalent to Fang Cheng getting a free whore without spending a penny. A studio comes out.
Although he is an immortal, Fang Cheng still feels that the gift given by Teacher Shen is too heavy.
For the time being, he couldn't think of a way to repay him, so Fang Cheng simply planted a batch of spiritual grass, bottled it into tea and sent it to Teacher Shen, and then asked sincerely: "Teacher Shen, who do you think you don't like and want to give him retribution?" What? If the other party commits a heinous crime, I can’t kill him, and I can guarantee that no one will notice.”
Teacher Shen burst into laughter, patted Fang Cheng on the shoulder and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite humorous, Xiao Fang. Don't think too much, I also have selfish motives."
"Then two?"
"Okay, stop joking. Domestic games are in decline. Many games can only be played in a niche, or they sell feelings, which makes my balls ache. Although we are only in our forties, our thinking is fixed, and we cherish feathers too much. We don't want to It’s time to move. Now that I see you are such a good seedling, it’s time to cultivate you.”
"Teacher Shen, I really haven't understood why games are fun."
"I don't understand either. Who can say that they have completely understood the game. Games are really art. You have no idea when and how your games will touch others and make them have fun ideas. In short, don’t put too much pressure, try to go your own way and find your own way.”
"……Thanks."
After sincerely thanking him, Fang Cheng took out his own tea and said to Teacher Shen: "I don't have any other gifts for this visit. I grew these teas myself, and I asked the teacher to accept them. Drink a little every day to keep your body strong." It also helps with hair loss.”
"You grew it yourself... Then I'm not polite. It has nothing to do with hair loss or anything like that."
After sending Fang Cheng out, Teacher Shen took out the tea leaves in the jar, put it under his nose and smelled it, and immediately felt the fragrance.
Take a little and brew it with boiling water, and you will see a full cup of green tea, as if the whole spring is contained in it.
After taking a sip, the fragrance immediately lingered on my lips and teeth, and Teacher Shen couldn't help but sigh: "What a good thing."
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but after drinking a cup of tea, Teacher Shen felt refreshed, and the remaining hair was much shiny.
