Two days passed again.
Since Jiyou released the new game announcement, many Lezi netizens wanted to see how the only game Shiu Guang would respond.
Is it a domineering reply, or a yin and yang aura.
After all, no matter how bad the reputation of Fang Technology Games is, it is still a large listed company.
But Shuo Guang’s only game is behind Infinite Entertainment.
These two leading Chinese companies have their own game platforms and can be considered old rivals.
This time Jiyou takes action on the only game, what kind of conflict will break out?
Lezi netizens found it interesting just thinking about it, so they looked forward to it and refreshed V blogs and barrage websites every day.
result...
Wait and wait.
Just wait for a response that makes Lezi netizens confused.
Under the shimmering dynamics of Danmaku.com, there is a very understatement.
[The game looks great. 】
Ah?
What is this response?
Lezi netizens were confused.
Why is it different from the imagined script?
Shouldn't he come up to accuse?
What are you doing?
But soon, netizens realized it.
This is...
pattern!
You targeted me in your words and used me as an example to introduce your game.
Do you think I'm going to be furious?
No!
I want to praise you!
This shows that I am very tolerant and informal.
I already have a good reputation, so I don’t need to ruin my popularity with you.
So, I want to praise your game for being good.
This is the difference between us.
When netizens thought of this, they immediately understood.
Look at others, and then look at your skills. What is your level?
Their only game doesn’t even care about you!
You still dance!
As a result, netizens entered the V blog one after another and left messages below: Jiyou, you really are the one.
…
Meng Shu on the other side didn't know that her unintentional words were over-interpreted by netizens.
He is currently interviewing people who have come to apply for the role of task designer.
At this time, sitting opposite Meng Shu's desk, a young man who looked quite cheerful was sitting.
He has a smile on his face, is honest and honest, and looks pretty good, somewhat upright.
This is the final 'winner' that Xu Hong chose from thousands of people and passed his level.
My name is Chen An, 27 years old, and has been in the industry for 5 years.
I have worked in two companies, the first one is a mobile game company, and the second one is an online game company.
They all hold the position of task designer.
Judging from the resume, this person has a lot of experience and also has an introduction to the game works he has participated in.
There are three mobile games alone.
Although there is only one online game, this game is still in operation ten years ago, and it is also an established and large company.
Meng Shu looked at his resume and nodded.
"Mr. Chen, judging from your resume, you do meet our company's recruitment requirements, but there is one thing I need to tell you."
Chen An immediately sat upright and acted very upright.
"Mr. Meng, please speak."
Meng Shu smiled and waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be so nervous.
"That's right. Almost all of your past works are online games such as mobile games and online games. But our stand-alone games are fundamentally different from online games. You are also a person in the game industry. I think the two have been There is no need to say more about the difference.”
"But in terms of tasks alone, they are completely different from those in online games."
"In many online games on the market now, the normal mode is that A releases a task and asks you to go to point B to find C."
"You are the task designer, you should understand the meaning of my example."
Chen An couldn't help laughing, but still nodded seriously.
"Mr. Meng, you want to say that the tasks in online games are very monotonous. They are basically either killing monsters or finding people, right? In fact, I also understand that the focus of online games is on players' social interaction and level improvement. As for plot tasks, it is not It's a little weak, it's exactly what you said, A to B to C. It looks a little silly, a little assembly line."
"But don't worry, I know your abilities, and I really like your game. I really want to implement my mission in your game, so I came prepared."
oh?
Come prepared?
Meng Shu raised his eyebrows, a little curious.
I only saw Chen An in front of me taking out a notebook from the bag, opening it, and speaking.
"Before coming to the interview, I spent one night designing five super-long side tasks related to horror."
As he spoke, he turned the computer over.
When Meng Shu saw it, his eyes suddenly narrowed.
What's on the computer is a PPT.
Moreover, it is actually a mind map.
This seems to be one of the tasks. Judging from the dazzling connections, it is indeed very long and has many branch choices.
"Mr. Meng, although I am an online game mission designer. However, that is done at the request of the department. If it is a stand-alone game that focuses on gameplay and character presentation, I can make plot missions that satisfy you! "
"I designed the task in five stages. They are 'keyword extraction', 'problem divergence', 'idea hypothesis', 'branch expansion' and 'subsequent extension'."
"Look at the mission I designed, tentatively named "Knock on the Door"."
Chen An said and clicked on the first page of the PPT.
Above, just one sentence.
[In the building, the protagonist is lying on the bed, and there is a knock on the door. It is the neighbor who wants the protagonist to open the door]
Meng Shu glanced at Chen An, waiting for an explanation.
The latter also quickly started his own explanation.
"First, I set a basic framework for the task. Then, I started the first step, 'keyword extraction'"
"Then, from this framework, the four words 'lying in bed', 'knocking on the door', 'neighbor', and 'opening the door' can be extracted."
Chen An slid the PPT to the second page, and it happened to be these four keywords.
Meng Shu nodded and indicated to continue.
Chen An immediately understood.
"After the keywords are extracted, the second step can be carried out around these words, 'problem divergence'."
"For example: Does the protagonist lying on the bed mean that the time is night?"
"Is the protagonist really sleeping?"
"Why did the neighbor knock on the door?"
"Why do you knock on the protagonist's door instead of others in the building?"
"When the neighbor asks the protagonist to open the door, is he asking for help from the protagonist, or is he hoping to get help?"
"The protagonist is in bed, should he open the door?"
After a pause, Chen An continued to explain.
"By raising the question in the second step, you can proceed to the third step of 'thinking hypothesis'."
"Hypothesis 1: The neighbor knocks on the protagonist's door instead of knocking on other people's doors, which means he is targeting the protagonist."
"Idea 1: Did the protagonist do something to be targeted by his neighbor?"
"Hypothesis 2: The protagonist discovers that the neighbor's cat is a monster and kills it. When he leaves, he discovers that the neighbor is also a monster. The protagonist thinks that he cannot defeat him, so he quietly hides back home and remains calm."
"Idea 2: The neighbor discovered that his identity was exposed and found out through some means that he was the protagonist, so he targeted him."
"Hypothesis 3: The neighbor found the protagonist based on the smell and asked the protagonist to open the door."
"Idea 3: The protagonist knows that he has been exposed, so he pretends that he is not there in bed."
Hearing this, Meng Shu chuckled lightly, but did not speak.
Let Chen An continue to explain.
"At this point, you can proceed to the fourth step, 'branch expansion'."
"Branch 1: The protagonist doesn't open the door, so the neighbor turns into a monster and rushes in, and the protagonist dies."
"Branch 1.1: The protagonist does not open the door, and the monster rushes in. The protagonist dodges in time and escapes through the door. The monster is thrown away on the way, but in the end he is caught up and dies."
"Branch 1.2: The protagonist does not open the door, the monster rushes in, and finds that the protagonist is not in the house, but cannot find it. The protagonist escapes through the window."
"Branch 2: The protagonist opens the door, the monster attacks, and dies."
"Branch 2.1: The protagonist opens the door, prepares a weapon in his hand, and prepares for a surprise attack. But the weapon does not work, and he dies."
"Branch 2.2: The protagonist opens the door, but has already called the police on the phone. After opening the door, he escapes and flees. He keeps asking for help along the way, but still dies."
Meng Shu nodded, indicating that he understood.
"At this point, you can proceed to the final step. 'Follow-up extension'."
"Death ending: After the protagonist dies, the monster turns into a human and continues to hide in the building."
"Survival ending: After the protagonist escapes from the window and follows the pipe, he calls the police and destroys the monster together with the police."
With that said, Chen An returned to the mission thinking map and showed it to Meng Shu.
"Next, is the second task, "Eye", I give you..."
"No."
Meng Shu waved his hand to signal to stop.
Hearing this, Chen An suddenly panicked.
"That...Mr. Meng...I..."
Meng Shu glanced at the applicants in front of him, then at the task mind map in his notebook, thought about it, and motioned to borrow it.
Chen An immediately nodded and turned the notebook towards him.
Meng Shu looked at this task and smiled.
Climb up with both hands and start typing on the keyboard to make changes.
He responded while looking at the screen.
"The structure of your mission design is a bit interesting. I like the branching options in particular. But your problem is that the mission plot is not complete enough and the loop is not closed enough. You split a simple thing into multiple options and then add drama and expansion from there. "
"Let me tell you something you may not know, and that is the principle of Occam's razor, which means: Do not add entities unless necessary. In layman's terms, it is something that can be done simply, without deliberately complicating it. "
"You are very thoughtful. Maybe it is your first time to come to our company for an interview, so you may have over-performed. Designing five long tasks in one night has resulted in many places that are not well thought out and logically illogical."
"But you still have some abilities. From your task design structure, we can see that you do have something of your own, but it just needs to be optimized and streamlined."
"I can hire you, but I hope that your future mission design can be simple and achieve the best results."
"I modified your first mission, "Knock on the Door" for you. And I will directly adopt this mission into the game. So, the remaining side missions are up to you."
Meng Shu pushed the computer in front of Chen An, who immediately widened his eyes when he saw it.
