New ideas, a special VR game?
Yang Chen's sudden words made Brandon dumbfounded.
"Mr. Yang, what do you mean?" Brandon didn't understand it.
"A new team, responsible for VR games, will of course also be a new IP." Yang Chen said towards Brandon.
Speaking of which, Brandon understood the meaning of Yang Chen's words. He couldn't help being a little excited: "Mr. Yang, do you mean we can set up a team alone?"
"Of course, we need to accumulate some VR game technology." Yang Chen nodded and said.
VR will be a very important development direction for games in the future. Yang Chen believes this, especially the discovery that the discovery of new materials will reduce the cost of VR equipment, which makes Yang Chen very certain.
Otherwise, there will not be a PY wave with UEgame in order to enhance the accumulation of VR technology in Nebula games. At the same time, I saw that Brandon and his team also waved a small **** to give the NTR a wave of fiery UEgame.
"Of course, it will not be an open world of too large scale, but rather an interactive movie game that is more biased towards VCR." Yang Chen said to Brandon.
To directly shape a large open world on the VR platform, this is really a little risky behavior for them. Their technical capabilities on the VR platform may be able to be completed, but they are definitely not the best.
And in Yang Chen's memory, there are some special themes that are more suitable for the experience of VCR mode.
"The follow-up GDD will be given to you after perfection." Yang Chen looked at Brandon and said.
But after hearing this, Brandon was excited and had some surprises: "Mr. Yang, you are not responsible for the VR project?"
Shaking his head, Yang Chen said: "Maybe I will pay attention, but then on the PC platform, I have a new project, and this is not to make you really want to shape a complete open world, just interact in VCR In the experience, add something that allows players to feel open."
"New project?" Brandon got excited.
"Well, "Monster Hunter", a story about hunting." Yang Chen's mouth showed a smile.
"The story of hunting? Is it an open world like "The Wilderness: Redemption" that allows players to go to forests, mountains, and oceans to hunt?" After hearing Yang Chen's words, Brandon's mind instantly appeared The game "The Wild Darts: Redemption".
"In terms of the environment, there is no problem. Forests, wastelands, terraces, valley caves, and ice fields will all become players' hunting grounds in the game. But monsters are not ordinary tigers and lions, but various dragons. Biology." The smile on Yang Chen's face was more intense.
If Wang Ye who developed "Wolf: Shadows Die Twice" and "Dark Soul" together with Yang Chen before them, they will surely guess what kind of game this is.
But Brandon has no idea at all, and is still speculating: "Dragons? Are the dragons in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim? Hunting dragons, magic-themed games? Is it true that players are playing similar The role of Dragonborn?"
"Well, it's right to hunt dragons, but the magic is dragons, and players can only use cold weapons." Yang Chen's glance at Brandon said meaningfully.
Brandon froze.
The magic is a dragon, and players can only use cold weapons.
Even if Brandon didn't participate in the development of games like "Wolf: Shadows Die Twice" and "Dark Soul" like Wang Ye, they also smelled something unusual from Yang Chen's words.
Does it mean a dragon or a dragon like in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, is the player used by ordinary people or a cold weapon?
Is this still the story of hunting?
This is the story of the dragon hunting player!
"Monster Hunter" is not "Monster Abuse", right?
But without waiting for Brandon to continue to speak, Yang Chen turned to other topics.
"In this regard, in the early stage of VR, we will mainly do a big DEMO. In addition, if the new VR project will involve a large city, the model will take New York as an example. Of course, in the current VR project, these big cities It is more biased towards the existence of stickers, but we need to make him a substantial existence, because there will be a lot of plots happening in this city in the future." Yang Chen turned the topic back to the VR project towards Brandon.
For this VR project, Yang Chen did not want to be able to launch it quickly, but it required a long time to accumulate, not only the team development takes time, but also about the popularity of equipment.
On this point, Yang Chen believes that those VR manufacturers should be the most urgent.
It has invested billions and tens of billions in the field of VR. For such a long time, it has not been fully rolled out. Even if the food delivery industry burns billions or tens of billions, the market has already been opened. , Just wait for the opponent to die and cut the leek.
"Understood, Mr. Yang, but what kind of game will our VR project be?" Brandon was still a bit curious.
Although Yang Chen didn't give GDD to him, but from Chen Chen's only words and phrases, he was able to analyze some according to his professional ability.
Modern theme games should be biased towards strong immersive story-style games like interactive movies, followed by this may be a big project.
Because in it, Yang Chen mentioned shaping a big city, and said that he is biased towards texture, but he did not let them directly use textures.
This means that they need to build the entire city to build and use the material of the subsequent game. Otherwise, simply using the texture effect will not only save costs, but also improve the effect of the game.
In terms of realism, players may think that the real modeling may be more realistic.
But the actual situation is just the opposite. In the case where the player cannot go to those places to observe at close range, the effect brought by that texture is better.
"Subject?" Yang Chen smiled when he heard Brandon's words.
"Genius, philanthropist, playboy, millionaire... more precisely, it should be the story of the birth of a superhero."
Superhero, Iron Man.
When deciding on a VR project, Yang Chen actually considered a lot of games in dream memory, but combined with the feedback from the previous VR version of "Game King" and "Resident Evil 5", there are actually two The effect of a game in VR.
Finally, let Yang Chen target on one theme: superhero.
At the same time, in the superhero camp, Yang Chen turned his final gaze to the story of the role of Iron Man.
In the world comics of dream memory, this is actually a second- and third-line character, but this is not important.
The important thing is that the setting of this character is very good.
Genius, philanthropist, playboy, and the ability to have money When it comes to financial resources, there is probably only another Batman called the master who can compete with it, but compared to the story of Iron Man, Batman The story is obviously repressed and much heavier.
In the highly immersive VR experience, for the player, playing Iron Man in the limelight is obviously more sense than Batman hidden in the darkness of Gotham City.
The second is the linkage of the game, such as the "Red Alert: World War" series of Nebula games, "Metal Gear: Phantom Pain" and "Assassin’s Creed" and the subsequent "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" in the game. Yang Chen added many small eggs.
These little eggs have been dug up by the supernatural players, and all of them are discussing on the Internet in addition to the background in these games, there is no deeper experience.
Compared with the current VR game development technology inside Nebula Games, it can present a lifelike open-world game to players, but it prefers the interactive story experience, which is not difficult for Yang Chen.
The only difficulty is how to tell this story to the players in the game.
