Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 101

Months flew by.

In the past few months, the major game companies and well-known designers have basically not released new games, and they all hold their breath and put all their energy on Jinyoujiang.

I hope I can get a good ranking.

Regarding the triennial Golden Game Awards, the major game media naturally denounced it without hesitation and showered it with all kinds of compliments for free.

But the reaction of the players was unremarkable.

"Golden Game Award..."

"I feel like this award has little value. I remember that last time I came first in the online voting and got third place."

"It's over, it's over, it's just an insider award."

"Can you expect the official media that says 'Don't criticize blindly, but look for bright spots' to make a reasonable evaluation?"

"But I heard that this year is different. Online voting seems to account for the majority this year, and the judges only play a guiding role."

"Online voting...Have you forgotten the Yin Bing incident a few years ago? Only twelve people with more than 20 people received millions of votes overnight and jumped directly into the top three."

"But there is Liu Wei this year."

"Liu Wei? He's just a trick designer who makes casual games. This kind of head-to-head competition will definitely be broken at the first touch."

"Dian, Liu Wei's championship is just a trick, and other people's runner-up is full of gold, right?"

"That's the fact. Which game does he have that has an outstanding plot, unique gameplay, and beautiful graphics?

Aren't they all some other casual games?What is this called if it's not a trick? "

"There's nothing to say to Kuroko."

"Dian, I said the facts are sunspots, if you have the ability, let Liu Wei hit me in the face with his grades this time!
I'll leave it at that. Liu Wei doesn't have to win the championship in this competition. If the game he designed can be ranked in the top four, I will live broadcast handstand shampooing and a five-speed electric fan! "

"Wow, brother is so hardworking, I love him so much!"

"Haha, although I support my brother's statement, I want Liu Wei to win this time."

"A strong man, oh no, a martyr!"

As soon as the post 'Brother's Electric Fan' came out, it was liked and reposted by countless people. Some players who just wanted to watch the fun and didn't mind it were too nervous to come and take a look.

Liu Wei was also a classic fool, and he immediately replied:
"Remember to plug in the phone and I'll call you 120."

It directly brought the popularity of this post to a new high.

……

the other side.

A sneaky figure appeared at the door of the experience store.

Although he tried to look as natural as possible, his clean clothes and thin hair gave him away.

Which college student would go to the experience store to surf the Internet cleanly? But all the regular users of the Internet are disheveled young people with messy hair.

He took out his mobile phone and said something to the other end of the phone: "I have arrived at the entrance of the experience store. Next, I will use a hidden camera to record the actual gameplay."

After the man finished speaking, he hung up the phone and adjusted the hidden camera on his collar.

Stride towards the experience store.

The man's name is Ma Qun, and he is a director of Tianyi Interactive Entertainment's marketing department.

This time I came here mainly because I wanted to check out the competitors' products.

In Tianyi Huyu, there are more than a dozen executives like Ma Qun, whose main task is to act as spies and check the opponent's progress on the spot.

That’s right, check it out!
High-end shopping malls adopt the simplest approach.The back-and-forth, all kinds of intrigues, overt and covert schemes like those in online novels will never appear in real life.

More importantly, I bribed your cleaning lady to inadvertently 'touch' the network cable every three hours.

You bribe my security guard to disconnect the internet for two hours.

Small methods such as posting small advertising links on competitors' works to deliberately discredit opponents.

If you want to see the progress of the other party's product development, you won't bribe the other party's core personnel like in the novel.

Instead, they adopt a simpler method, pretending to be interested manufacturers, and ask for the data directly face to face.

It doesn't matter if you are discovered. There is a complete set of criminal laws in the country. If you are discovered, you will be scolded and you will never dare to hit someone.

Otherwise, Ma Qun would fall to the ground on the spot and take out his mobile phone to check the car emperor.

If the other party still doesn't stop, you can record the real estate agent's number.

After tidying up her clothes, Ma Qun walked into the experience store.

When they first entered the experience store, Ma Qun was slightly surprised.

The small experience store was almost full of people, and there were even people watching around the computers of some experts, exclaiming from time to time.

"Don't these people go traveling during the holidays?"

"Aren't others just hanging out with friends or hanging out with their partners? Why are these people staying here?"

But the next second, the horses felt unhappy looks from around them.

It seems to be saying, you curse again!
Haha... you're a fat nerd.

Ma Qun squeezed to the counter with an apologetic look, swiped his card and boarded the machine.

Looking at the ridiculously beautiful Ling Jingwen in front of him, Ma Qun was slightly absent-minded, but soon he came to his senses and asked directly:
"Hello, I'm an ordinary player from out of town. I came here because of the name. I would like to ask, what is the name of the game your store is participating in this competition?"

Ling Jingwen replied without raising her head: ""The Eight Wastelands of the Ghost Valley""

"Guigu Bahuang"...sounds unclear!
Ma Qun muttered a few words in his heart, and then asked: "What is the theme? Can I experience it now?"

The real business war is that simple!
Ling Jingwen nodded: "You can try out the Xianxia theme on any computer you want, but it's still in the final testing stage and some bugs may easily appear."

With that said, Ling Jingwen handed over a bracelet with a number plate.

Ma Qun picked it up and looked at it. It said 22 on it.

When Ma Qun was confused, he heard Ling Jingwen explain: "This is a bug card. If you find an unreasonable bug during the trial, you can record it and show it to us."

“After confirming the bug, we will provide rewards to the discoverer based on the severity of the bug, ranging from online time to cash rewards.”

Ma Qun nodded and took away the bug card.

Liu Wei is quite smart and allows players to act as testers for him. You must know that ordinary testers need hundreds of dollars for each test.

Now Liu Wei is directly engaging in prostitution for free...it's not really free of charge, and he also provides free Internet time.

Of course, this trick works for others, but not for horses.

As a qualified spy, even if he discovers a bug, he will not tell his opponent.

This is the basic professional quality of a spy.

Finding a random seat in the non-smoking area, Ma Qun sat down.

It’s not that the horses don’t smoke, it’s that the smoking area is full of people and you can’t get in.

As soon as they sat down and turned on the phone, Ma Qun heard someone next to them shouting:
"Network administrator, five kills, drinks!"
