"Being popular is inevitable, and it is also possible to be promoted to the altar. It's just that what a studio pursues is not just to be popular and promoted to the altar." Wang Yang sighed inwardly.

In fact, he is also a person with dreams, and he also wants to make a domestic stand-alone machine that is sought after by players and pushed to the altar.

But reality has smoothed out his dreams.

As a senior practitioner in the game industry, he deeply knows that any gamer with a desire to survive, in the choice between dreams and reality, it is not that the former cannot be considered, but the latter must be given priority.

Because only the latter can make him survive, and only if he survives can he consider other capital!

So even if the game is sought after, what if it is pushed to the altar?

If the problem of domestic piracy cannot be solved in one day, the domestic stand-alone machine will never emerge!

What choices those seemingly loyal players will make when facing the high prices of genuine games and cheap pirated games everywhere has long been proven by history.

In 2003, Xian San was sold, and its excellent production and excellent gameplay were well received by the industry and regarded as a masterpiece by players.

But in the end, only 500,000 sets were sold, which allowed the producer to recover the cost.

According to statistics from relevant departments, the sales volume of pirated copies of Xian San is at least 5 million sets!

Wang Yang knows that the head office's technology is very good, plus their planning, they dare not say that they have produced a world-class 3A masterpiece, but it is still possible to produce a domestic stand-alone game that reaches the international standard.

But what about that?

The day after the game is uploaded, the cracked version will be spread all over the Internet.

Their painstaking work can only become a carnival for pirates.

And the studio he is in, which seems to be a promising studio, is very likely to fail because of this.

Wang Yang really likes Daoyi Game Studio, because it is one of the few in the industry, maybe even the only one that attaches great importance to planning.

Moreover, this studio has a strong head office behind it, and it has just produced explosive games like "Tianzun".

This is a promising studio, and it has the potential to become the overlord of the game circle in the future, and even become the spokesperson of domestic games.

He really doesn't want this studio to ruin its future because of Jiang Bai's momentary overheating.

So he tried hard to persuade: "I know that President Jiang, as a gamer, has feelings for domestic stand-alone games. In fact, all domestic gamers have deep feelings for domestic stand-alone games. After all, those were the most glorious years of domestic games.

But feelings are feelings, business is business, and operating a studio still needs to look at problems from a more rational perspective. The predicament of domestic stand-alone games is a reality, which is not transferred by our subjective wishes.

So I think it doesn't matter if President Jiang just wants to develop a stand-alone game for his own entertainment. But if you want to invest a lot of human, financial and material resources into the masterpiece, you need to consider carefully. "

Jiang Bai's eyes flashed, he could hear the sincerity in Wang Yang's words, but he was not ready to change his will.

Because of Wang Yang's worries, it was never a problem for him.

The system can even solve the piracy problem of online novels, not to mention the piracy problem of stand-alone games?

And the domestic stand-alone games that have solved piracy have a huge market!

In the future, with an investment of 3 million to produce "The Legend of the Knight," it sold 700,000 sets just relying on feelings.

The total sales of the first two generations of "Gu Jian Qi Tan" also exceeded 1.5 million sets.

The quality of these games, let alone reaching the international average level, cannot even reach the benchmark of international production.

At most, it is a boutique in the domestic stand-alone.

The domestic stand-alone machine has been in a state of stagnation since 2002...

However, interests are only one aspect of Jiang Bai's choice of a domestic stand-alone machine.

Compared with interests, what he values ​​more is that single-player games have a greater influence in the world than online games.

Foreign players have not experienced domestic bans, and their acceptance of stand-alone games is far higher than that of online games.

At the same time, stand-alone games can also carry richer values ​​and cultural connotations than online games.

After all, in a stand-alone game, except for the player himself, everything else is a world built by the producer, which can easily create the cultural atmosphere that the producer wants.

In online games, players are more concerned about the interaction with each other, and most people don't care much about the concepts conveyed by the game itself.

Therefore, in the future, if you want to build a cultural and entertainment empire with Chinese culture as the core and export culture to the West, you must have a strong domestic stand-alone industry as a support!

Jiang Bai said seriously: "I understand what you mean, the factor for the decline of domestic stand-alone machines has never been the market, but the flood of piracy! But I have already prepared for this, and you should also believe in the technical strength of the head office, we can solve it. piracy issue."

"Damn it, even the top productions of those big European and American factories can't solve the problem of piracy. Why do you make me believe that the head office can solve it?"

Wang Yang complained in his heart, but he didn't say anything more~www.novelbuddy.com~ He was not convinced, but he had already said what he had to say, but Jiang Bai insisted on going his own way, what could he do?

After all, Jiang Bai is the boss and he is the employee.

Years of workplace experience told him that as an employee, it is best not to have a serious conflict of ideas with the boss, otherwise the result may not be what the employee wants to see.

"Fortunately, in the case of Daoyi Game Studio, President Jiang can't stand it. And this project is under my control, and it won't let him develop to the point where it can't end!"

Wang Yang comforted himself in his heart, and then said sincerely: "Since President Jiang is so confident, of course I have no opinion, after all, the technology of the head office has already been fully reflected in "Tian Zun". What kind of stand-alone game is President Jiang planning to develop?"

"I plan to develop a first-person shooter game. The background is the Anti-Japanese War!" Jiang Bai said in a deep voice.

First-person shooting games, FPS for short, as the name suggests, is a shooting game played from the player's subjective perspective.

This is the mainstream game type that occupies a large share of the game market.

Whether it's "Counter-Strike", which was very popular back then, or "Cross Fire", which has a maximum of three million simultaneous online players in the online game market, it all represents the popularity of this type of game.

In the international market, first-person shooter games are also enduring.

The "Call of Duty" series, the "Battlefield" series, the "Armed Raid" series, and the "Medal of Honor" series are all super game IP series that can easily sell millions of copies as soon as they are listed.

And this kind of work also has the biggest feature. The requirements for the plot are not particularly high. As long as the special effects are well done and the battle scenes are hot, nothing else is a problem!
