Chapter 13: Celebrate

A hot pot restaurant in the magical city of Vientiane.

Chen Xu was eating hot pot with Ruan Ningxue and Yang Xin.

Beef, tripe, beef louver, beef rolls…

“It’s too strong, my God, the game circle has exploded, and the players here are also getting rave reviews!” Yang Xin, who had already known each other, looked excited at the news on his phone.

“Sister Xin, don’t call me a god, I’m not a god now, just call me by my name.” Chen Xu waved his hand.

It’s such an exaggeration, but Chen Xu is very clear that the so-called sensation is more of an explosion in the circle of small-scale gentleman game developers.

As for the entire gaming world?

At most, it has made splashes in the independent game circle, and it is still the kind of splashes that don’t have many ripples.

Chen Xu has a very clear understanding of this.

“I don’t think I should have said 50,000 sales in the first place.” Ruan Ningxue next to him said, but with a smile on hre face.

Hearing this, Chen Xu put down the chopsticks in his hand and said to Ruan Ningxue with a smile: “There’s no way, who asked you to decide this, Senior Sister.”

“Hey, I was thinking about inviting you, Chen Xu, to my company, but now it seems that I’m thinking too much!” Yang Xin said a little depressed.

“You can save my junior brother, three of your games are worse than one!” Ruan Ningxue stabbed Yang Xin in the back mercilessly.

“Although all three of my games have failed, there is a reason for that. Well, I am responsible for the structure of the text plot, and the rest of the game is done by people, and the plot texts are all approved by players’ feedback. Right!” Yang Xin expressed dissatisfaction.

“By the way, Chen Xu, can you help the staff, what’s wrong with the three games developed by our company?” Yang Xin asked Chen Xu.

“Positioning and a bloated system.” Chen Xu searched with his mobile phone, and just simply watched some videos on the Internet, and he already understood.

“Huh…?” Yang Xin was a little confused.

“Simply put, it’s your game, Sister Xin. You want to add a little bit of everything to it, but Sister Xin, you’re making a low-cost independent game, not a 3A-level game. Even if it’s a 3A-level game, there are many The system settings are basically used for enrichment, not as a main dish.” Chen Xu said towards Yang Xin.

Listening to Chen Xu’s words, Yang Xin showed a sudden realization on the surface. He understood a little but didn’t fully understand.

However, although she was still a little confused, Yang Xin was too embarrassed to continue asking, so she changed the subject.

“By the way, what are you going to do next, Chen Xu?”

“Next, I’m going to start a small game company myself.” It’s not a secret, Chen Xu said with a smile.

“Start your own company?” Yang Xin was a little surprised.

“Well.” Chen Xu nodded, this was in the plan.

Yang Xin, who was sitting in the seat, thought for a while, then made a decision and said, “What do you think of me, Chen Xu? Can I go to your place to develop the game together?”

She is still very fond of making games.

It’s just that the three failed projects in a row made her a little disheartened.

But now she figured it out.

I can’t be a game designer, I can’t make successful games, is that a problem?

No, it’s not!

It’s just that she hasn’t found a way to succeed yet. Finding a thigh to hold her is the secret to success!

The game “Magic Mirror”, she had a deep understanding of it before she came.

Then she came to a conclusion that the success of this game was definitely not a fluke.

And just now I heard Chen Xu’s comments on his three games, although he understood a little, he didn’t fully understand.

But there is one thing she can be sure of, that is, the first-time gamer’s apprentice in the mouth of her best friend, definitely has the potential to become a great god!

Some game designers may have developed a high-quality game because of a momentary inspiration, and then disappeared.

But there are also game designers who have a fairly clear understanding of the games they want to develop.

Chen Xu in front of her obviously such a person.

The failure of three consecutive games gave Yang Xin a clear understanding of hre.

Listening to Yang Xin’s words, Chen Xu, also fell into a thought.

Chen Xu also briefly glanced at the three games that Yang Xin mentioned.

As Yang Xin said, the plot is indeed the highlight.

Most of the bad reviews of the game come from the gameplay settings, while most of the good reviews come from the plot.

And it’s not just one game, it’s all three games.

Obviously this is the credit of the plot designers.

In the follow-up, if he wants to make games by himself, it is definitely impossible to rely on him all. Some of the main plot lines of some games have various contexts, and he can be responsible.

But what about the full storyline?

Relying on him alone, even if there is a system, it is not realistic.

You must know that a game of this level in the past life is like Red Dead Redemption 2. The main line text alone is as high as more than 2,000 pages. If you count the text of the entire game, a script page the size of an A4 paper is 2.4 meters long. high.

For games such as “Magic Mirror”, he can take full responsibility for it, but it is obviously impossible for him to develop games with more text and more in the future.

“Of course there is no problem. If you are serious, Sister Xin, we can talk about it when I get the company’s side right in the future.” Chen Xu said to Yang Xin.

“No problem, then I’ll wait for your news from Chen Xu!” Yang Xin said.

“Okay, okay, if you don’t eat, I’ll eat up all the beef.” Ruan Ningxue said.

“I said, if Ning Xue wants you to join, we can definitely do a great job with our strength!” Yang Xin smiled and looked at Ruan Ningxue next to him.

Picking up the Want Want Milk on the table and taking a sip, Ruan Ningxue glanced at Yang Xin without saying a word.

“But I don’t know how popular “Magic Mirror” will be, and the monthly sales will exceed one million?” Yang Xin guessed on the side.

“It is hopeful to get half, but it is basically impossible to go higher.” Chen Xu said with a smile.

He still has a clear understanding of this. After all, it is an 18R game, and the restrictions are too large.

A group of people in the store ate and drank. At about nine o’clock, Chen Xu sent the two to their respective communities, and then took a taxi home.
