At this time, it was already in mid-October. In the next month or so, I didn’t hear any more classic games developed by big companies. If nothing else, the "America's Doomsday" won the annual game award is already a matter of course.
However, it is not just this that makes the whole game circle shocking. Another point is, how many games will Chen Mo be in the annual game competition?
In the past year, Chen Mo won the annual game award with the excellent level design, world view, plot and difficulty of "Dark Soul", and also made the Thunder mutual entertainment be "Dark Black Factory". Many people in the game circle I thought he would continue this style and carry it forward, and continue to dig deeper in similar **** games.
However, Chen Mo has embarked on a completely different path.
"Uncharted Waters" redefines the types of games on the subject of adventure, and "Apocalyptic Day" redefines the end-time themes.
Obviously, even compared with the best works of the big ones this year, "Uncharted Waters" has a high score of 9 points, not to mention the full score of "America's Doomsday" is the killing of people, the Buddha blocking the Buddha .
The most frightening thing is not only the two games, but also the popularity of a game is higher than the two games, that is, "Jesus Survival."
After the "Jesus Survival" opened the international service, the popularity of the game is rising, and the vr game cabin occupancy rate is constantly refreshing people's perception. On the vr platform, the momentum of "Jesus Survival" is completely unstoppable. If there is no other more powerful black horse to come out, "Jesus Survival" is very likely to reach the popularity of "League of Legends" on the PC side in the vr field. .
Even the mobile games of "Jesus Survival" have already topped the list of best-selling mobile games in more than 130 countries and regions, and the world is just around the corner.
It is said that in some foreign campuses, students have indulged in the "Jesus Survival" mobile game has affected the normal curriculum, and some schools' wifi has even specifically blocked the "Jesus Survival", the game's fiery degree can be seen.
Originally, the designers of traditional games don't pay much attention to "Jesus Survival", because this is a game that doesn't matter to the "Year of the Year", no matter how it looks, no matter how much the fire has nothing to do with them.
But after reaching this heat, no one can ignore it.
"Popularity" is also an important consideration when evaluating games in major game media. Like "Jesus Survival" has reached this level, even if you can not get the best game of the year, it is likely to get a nomination for the game of the year.
Generally speaking, the selection rules of the major game media are different. The number of the best game nominations for the year is uncertain. It may be five or six, or it may be ten. As long as it is a game played this year, as long as the score is good (8.5 points) Above), have the opportunity to get an annual game nomination.
After all, there is only one game of the year, and the rest are all running together. It’s hard work to make a good game. It’s a bit too much to even run it.
But this year is a bit special, because "Apocalyptic Day", "Uncharted Waters" and "Jesus Survival" have almost confirmed that they will enter the annual game nomination, the first two are high enough, and the "Jesus Survival" is because of the popularity explosion. .
In other words, Chen Mo has developed three masterpieces this year, not counting the small game of "Beach Mansion", and then all were selected for the annual game nomination...
This is really terrible...
In the game industry, there are many high-yield designers and stable quality designers, but high-yield and stable quality is terrible.
Many people in the industry are speculating that this year will be a year of real rise between Chen Mo and Thunder. In the future, Chen Mo will open a game era that is completely under his rule, even reaching those traditional big factories. the height of!
......
As the heat of the "America's Doomsday" continues to ferment, the connotation of the game is being more and more excavated.
The players seem to have returned to the same year, in the "Dark Soul" through a prop description to infer the interesting story of the complete story.
Of course, the story of "America's Doomsday" is very complete and smooth, but there are still many hidden puzzles hidden in the game. These puzzles may be about a character, perhaps about the entire story background, or it may be a story about a place.
These small puzzles further enrich and perfect the world view of "Apocalyptic Day" and make it a unique end-time world.
For example, in a certain room, Ellie saw a person who committed suicide in the bathtub and said that he could not stand this kind of life, so he chose a more relaxed way. But Joel said, believe me, it is not easy, it is much better to be killed by zombies or to drink the bombs. That is to say, in the past 20 years, Joel, who suffered the pain of a lost woman, tried to commit suicide, but in the end he chose to live strong.
For example, the black brother wanted a toy, but his brother stopped it, and Elliott wanted to help the black brother bring the toy. After the death of the black brother, Ellie also specially brought the toy in her backpack. Other collectibles include the letter that her mother gave her and the good friend Riley's fire dog.
For example, in the beginning of the story, when Joel approached two passers-by, one of the passers-by provoked him. As a result, another passer-by rushed to apologize to Joel. After Joel walked away, the apologetic road talent asked his companion: "You are crazy. Do you know who the guy is?” From the side, it can be seen that Joel was a guy who was so afraid of many people when he was a smuggler.
In the hunter towns of the cannibals, you can find places where people burned corpses, places where clothes are discarded, and “harvest lists” for each batch. There are detailed records of how many people suffer at intervals.
In the purchase record of the Firefly Lab, there is even a joke about Halloween. On the Halloween day, the purchase list is 50,000 werewolves, and also marked Happy Halloween.
These seemingly inconspicuous puzzles and details are always in the game, players can always find a lot of interesting gadgets in the corners, or a piece of paper, or an identity card, or a The tapes, and these small details, make the world of "Apocalyptic Day" more complete and true, and the players seem to be able to see the life of each supporting role through the experience of Joel and Ellie.
Many players are feeling that this is the real zombie theme, this is the real end of the world!
Those games that made the end of the world just to make players violently kill in the game, were steadily educated by the "Apocalyptic Day."
