A City of Infinite Winners in One's Life

Moreover, the old people of the Sasaki family would not have thought that Yexizi had "betrayed" and became independent in secret. Now the old people of the Sasaki family are guarding paper wealth. If Yexizi does not acknowledge the account, then the Sasaki family will also Can't help her.

Moreover, Dimension Gate is a technology-based enterprise, and it does not rely on so-called connections and funds, which is also the basis for Ye Xizi to be able to "betray" the family.

"The development of For Honor has come to an end. You promised me that The King of Fighters 14 will be handled by you." Ye Xizi laughed.

As she spoke, she built another game. The For Honor game didn't seem very good, but it was "toxic". Ye Xizi wanted another game, and this time she chose the warrior camp.Li Wei can only accompany Ye Xizi to continue the game. Anyway, this game is very fun. Although he is the producer, it does not affect the enjoyment of this game as a player.

"The King of Fighters IP I will do well, don't worry, the quality is absolutely guaranteed, the technology in our hands is not comparable to SNKP." Li Wei smiled.

"Then I can rest assured that the development value of these old IPs is good, at least there will be no problem in terms of popularity. But I want to know, how to go about the art style of The King of Fighters 14? Street Fighter has now been released to the fifth generation, I played it a bit, and the game is really good. I have also played DOA, but DOA is now almost pure meat, and if you want to talk about competition, you still have to watch Street Fighter 5." Ye Xizi said.

"In terms of style... the main story will not be made into the style of DOA. The DOA and Tekken series are more entertaining than competitive, and everyone's attention in DOA and Tekken is on the female characters. It's all for the sake of welfare, but fewer players really care about their fighting routines and competitions, which is very detrimental to the retention rate of gamers. We don't just leave with a single vote, and doing this can easily ruin our reputation. "

"DOA's clothing DLC ​​is very expensive. My first impression is that those guys are crazy about money." Ye Xizi didn't know how to complain. The DOA series is a game under the banner of the trousers, and the quality of the game is really nothing to say. But the DLC charges, it can only be said that this is a local tyrant game.In RMB, a full set of female character clothing DLC ​​will cost about 1 soft sister coins to collect, and the exchange rate between soft sister coins and neon yuan is 16:[-], and a full set of female character clothing DLC ​​will cost about [-]. The neon circle is not a small number for ordinary people.

Li Wei sighed: "If we do that, it will definitely be a sign of smashing the sign, because we are now playing the image of the 'conscience of the industry', and DLC hell is too much. However, because of the art style, DOA has to follow the competitive route. Styles like Tekken are not considered, what we have to do is to imitate the style of Street Fighter 5, but at the same time do better than Capcom.”

Li Wei knows that this is difficult. Street Fighter 5 can be said to be one of the best games in terms of balance and handling among all fighting games on the market. Capcom has really found the golden section in terms of playability and balance.But Street Fighter 5 isn't entirely without its problems, and that's the aesthetic difference.

Street Fighter 5 follows the European and American style aesthetics. The style is quite exaggerated. The muscles of the male characters are exploding, and the female characters are not much better. They look a bit rough. Looking at the female characters in the CG, they feel pretty good, but when it comes to the actual game screen , a bunch of "sisters".Especially Chun Li's thighs, those powerful muscles are quite awesome. It's not that Chun Li's thighs are ugly, but that this kind of muscle style does not conform to the aesthetics of Asians.

Capcom's current Street Fighter 5 has been completely biased towards Europe and the United States in order to open up the European and American markets, which is equivalent to giving up part of the Asian market.What Li Wei has to do is to fill this gap first, and then go and snatch the European and American markets with Street Fighter 5.

Li Wei is not talking big, but he has two advantages. The first is the technical advantage. The technology in the hands of Dimension Gate is not comparable to Capcom.Although Dimension Gate is a new enterprise, in terms of technical reserves, it is enough to hang most of the game companies in the world. In terms of pure technology, even the R star of GTA5 is not an opponent of Dimension Gate.

The second advantage is the latecomer advantage. If Street Fighter 5 is to cross the river by feeling the stones, Li Wei's The King of Fighters 14 is to cross the river by feeling the Street Fighter 5. The pits that the Street Fighter series stepped on before, Li Wei can do it. One to avoid.In the case of a technical advantage, the late mover has changed from a disadvantage to an advantage.

Ye Xizi thought for a while and said, "''Will the competitive style of Street Fighter 5 have an impact on the art style? In terms of details, DOA still has a certain advantage."

Li Wei smiled and said: "This is not a problem at all. The King of Fighters 14 is a true 'new generation', everything is completely new from scratch, and the art style is naturally the same. Compared to Street Fighter's sense of power Style, Asian power aesthetics are more balanced, at least the muscle lines will not be so exaggerated, and the optimization of female characters must also be strengthened. The King of Fighters 13 is good, but according to our standards, it is only a good level. , SNKP's technology is still not good. (Get it)"

Ye Xizi nodded and said: "Then this project will be handed over to Li Weijun. In addition to the King of Fighters, I am also planning to restart the Metal Slug IP, but this time, the project team decided to make this game a 3D game. In a shootout action game, the characters and world view will be linked to the King of Fighters world.”

Li Wei said: "It's because of Ralph and Clark, the characters of the Furious Team. I understand. I will coordinate the two sides to ensure that the world view and the characters can be harmonious."

In addition to the roles of the previous generations, the main control characters of Metal Slug appeared in the later generations, including Ralph, Clark and Lianna. When SNKP handed over the materials, Li Wei also saw Colonel Hadillon. With the "Whip Girl" Weipu's plan to enter the alloy warhead, the basis for the linkage has been laid long ago.

What Li Wei and others have to do is to make the linkage really come out. Of course, the King of Fighters project is handled by Li Wei himself, and the alloy warhead is handed over to the production team under him. .

Chapter 1171. Reasonable tearing of books

Ye Xizi suddenly said: "Li Weijun, I think we have entered a misunderstanding. I also played the King of Fighters 13, let's not talk about the picture first, but the plot is indeed quite shocking, but SNKP has left us a mess. , that is, it is very troublesome to make up the story of 13, if you really follow the story of 13, wouldn't the later story be complete?"

Li Weimo rubbed his chin, thinking about the question Ye Xizi said, and said, "I really found a problem when you said that. The King of Fighters has reached the 13th generation, and the plot has come to an end. I don't know what SNKP thinks. In this hand, they really made the King of Fighters 13 as the last work of the series. If they do 14, the plot will not be able to continue at all. If they are forced to join... This is crazy?!"

Ye Xizi said: "Anyway, all the IPs in SNKP's hands are already in our hands. It's up to us to decide what to do. The King of Fighters series can no longer follow the old path. How about re-innovation? Come a new generation?"

Li Wei snapped his fingers and said, "This idea is OK. The change of the new King of Fighters is not only a change in the style of the painting, but also the plot, otherwise it really can't be done."

In 99013, the villain protagonist Axiu sacrificed himself to change history. It was really shocking for those who hated Axiu before. The style of carrying everything by himself is indeed a pure man.In the end, it really allowed him to change history successfully and eliminate the problem in the bud, but because of the grandmother paradox, he eliminated his ancestors, so he also disappeared and never existed.And everyone has forgotten the existence of Axiu, but because of Axiu's change of history, the story can't go on here.

To be honest, the plot of The King of Fighters becomes less grounded the further it goes to the back. To say it is ugly is almost bullshit, so the way to make up stories is getting narrower and narrower.And there is another problem that the characters in the later period have begun to break away from the category of "fighting". For example, the characters of The King of Fighters before 2003 are still "real", and after 2003, each one is "super-type". It started to pop up.

The Street Fighter series next door has done a good job. Although there are various qigong waves, in general, the Street Fighter series is more "realistic" than the King of Fighters series.And in terms of plot, Street Fighter is also more "conservative". Although the word conservative sounds unpleasant, it is better for series plots.Moreover, Capcom’s Street Fighter is only in its fifth generation, and there is still a lot to do in the plot. From SNK to SNKP, the King of Fighters is like a new year’s product. The plot that can be written has been written almost, plus 5 This "landmine", if Li Wei wants to continue to do 13, it will be very difficult to continue the plot.

At this point, Li Wei is envious of Capcom.

Ye Xizi said: "I feel that the more the King of Fighters gets, the more flamboyant it gets, the more fun it is to 'fighting', it's just a group of fairies fighting, and I can't see the shadow of the fighting competition anymore. I feel the popularity of the King of Fighters. The decline also has something to do with this. The early characters are very distinctive, and everyone has their own things, but the homogeneity of the King of Fighters began to become serious in the later stage, and even the characteristics of those old characters are gradually weakening. It is because SNKP technology is not good, so there is no way, but if we do it ourselves, we must not make such mistakes.”

Li Wei nodded, Ye Xizi is also an old player of fighting games. The problem with the King of Fighters series is really straight to the point. Originally, The King of Fighters could have a hard anal with Street Fighter, but since Street Fighter 4, The King of Fighters has been overtaken. The farther away, the owner of the King of Fighters, SNKP, sold itself and disbanded, and Capcom became more and more prosperous.I have to say that it’s been thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, and that SNK still killed himself.

Ye Xizi continued: "I have played both The King of Fighters and Street Fighter, but 13 really disappointed me. Since the era of Street Fighter 4, I knew that SNKP would not be able to turn over, and there were too many problems. It is trustworthy (addg), but from the perspective of ordinary players, there are a few points I have to tell you. The first is that it is best not to create too many new characters in the new generation, and to do the old ones well first. The DLC can go out slowly. The second is don't be too fancy, the fighting like a fairy fight is not suitable for the king of fighters, the king of fighters does not need to be as hard-core as Street Fighter, but at least the punch is still to be done, the queen of fighters Where is fighting, it's all about dancing with each other. The third is realism. The King of Fighters has gone the wrong way since 2000, focusing on cool and full-screen special effects, but the simple and real fighting experience is gone. Li Weijun, are you here? When making moves, try to be as realistic as possible, don't engage in fancy EX hard combos, but try to make every move as ergonomic as possible. These are the three points I can think of for the time being, and the main problems of the King of Fighters are these three points. up."

Li Wei nodded, Ye Xizi is worthy of being an old player of fighting games. The problem he said was really the key point of the King of Fighters series. For the sake of viewing and innovation, the King of Fighters came up with an EX combo system. The viewing experience has improved to a certain extent, but the gameplay has become worse, and it is not suitable for competition.Therefore, the professional competition of the King of Fighters is less than that of Street Fighter, and its influence is not as wide as that of Street Fighter. Of course, it is naturally better than DOA and Tekken, but DOA and Tekken do not rely on competition to promote themselves at all. .Coupled with the fact that the various fighting games of Marvel, DC, Capcom and Marvel in Europe and the United States have captured more than half of the fighting games, the "combination of local and foreign" with the King of Fighters is not a human being.

Now anyway, the King of Fighters series has entered a new generation, so everything is not to say to be overturned, but some inappropriate things should be thrown away. If you want to surpass the Street Fighter series, it is not just as simple as cooking cold rice.Moreover, fighting games are not just good graphics, but also have enough operability, otherwise it will be a follow-up work of gold and jade.Why is Street Fighter 5 not much improved on the screen compared to Street Fighter 4, but its popularity explodes, that is because it has enough "hard core", it is really "fighting", even if it introduces special forces, But it is relatively balanced, not like the embarrassing dance competition of the Queen of Boxing period, who is more coquettish than anyone else.

Li Wei said: "There will be no problem with the quality of the game, but what about the plot? That damn faraway chapter really pushed us into a corner."

This time it was Ye Xizi's turn to scratch his head. After thinking about it for a long time, he sighed, and then Ye Xizi said, "It seems that we have to learn to eat with the neighbor Bandai. Didn't Ah Xiu change history, then we will learn from the sound At the beginning of the nest chapter, from my point of view, the plot of the King of Fighters is divided into three chapters, the most exciting Orochi chapter, the passable sound nest chapter, and the faraway place chapter that is completely messed up. Cause the world line to change, the new story starts from the end of the sound nest, and some characters in the faraway land can be retained, but we will lose this plot.".

chapter 1172. industry status

Li Wei thought for a while and said: "This... it seems to be really okay, because Axiu has changed history, his ancestors no longer exist, and the distant place no longer exists, then this runaway article is about If you can delete it directly, the plot will be revitalized at once!"

The problems that plagued Li Wei disappeared at once. The plot of the faraway place cannot be said to be bad, but it was too messy. Under the attitude, it is completely a last-ditch battle of self-destruction.But now to start a new generation, the plot of the distant place can only be abandoned. Fortunately, the story of the distant place can be revealed, and the world line can be re-expanded. A foothold.

Li Wei said: "I have nothing to say about the game's technology. I will try my best to be the best. However, in terms of the plot, I still need a dedicated screenwriter. In fact, the three chapters are very good. It is very innovative, and of course it caused us a lot of trouble. The plot of the King of Fighters series is not a big problem, but the production capacity and financial resources of SNKP in the later stage have not kept up with the times, so it will cause the decline of the King of Fighters series. But now that we've taken over the IP, it's not as difficult as expected to do well."

Ye Xizi said in surprise: "You don't care about Li Weijun about the plot?"

Li Wei said with a smile: "It's not that I don't care, I will only make some requests, but overall I will not intervene too much. I will do my best in the production of the game, but I don't ask much for the plot. Of course, some characters I will Prepare to make changes. For example, Dongzhang in the wolf team will be replaced by Locke, the story of the Shiranui Dance Party will be redone, and it will no longer be related to Andy, the female fighter team members will be redone, the Chinese team members will be changed, etc. Details to be changed There are many, I will make a copy of what I want to change, and this time the screenwriter will be from Shiyu."

There is a great screenwriter at home, and Li Wei is naturally unwilling to let it go.

Li Wei is going to optimize some unpleasant details in the King of Fighters series. At the same time, the art style is fully optimized. He doesn't want to worry too much about the plot, because the plot of a fighting game is not the most important thing. The quality of the game itself is not good enough. God is useless.The plot of Street Fighter has always been simple and rude, but do players care, what they want is fun to play.

After sending Ye Xizi away, Li Wei started preparations.For Honor, the overall completion rate has now reached more than [-]%, and the remaining details do not need Li Wei to do it himself.Right now, what's bad about For Honor is the dubbing and facial expression capture in some special cases. The people in the department below will handle these things. Li Wei is also working out what needs to be filled. It's enough for the people below to follow his baton. .

After completing the documentation, Li Wei copied the items to the hard drive, ready to have his subordinates come over and take them away.This is not because the dimension gate is high, but the games in production are operated in a physical disconnection mode to ensure that the content will not be leaked due to the network.The employees of the relevant departments of Dimension Gate are all equipped with one person and two computers. One is connected to the Internet and the other is disconnected from the Internet. The disconnected network is responsible for the production of content, while the network is to facilitate the people below to find information on the Internet.

The employees of the key departments of Dimension Gate have all been "baptized" by Li Wei. There is no problem with loyalty, but some accidents that may occur can not be tolerated. Li Wei cannot be in the company all the time, so he can only use This stupid way to defend against possible intrusion from the outside world.The cost of this method is very high, but it eliminates the possibility of problems. With multiple lines of defense and physical disconnection, the security of the project in the hands of Dimension Gate has crushed the defense level of the national computer center.

Coupled with the absolute technical advantages and defense system, any hacker who dares to come and ask for trouble will be locked in IP within [-] seconds, so Li Wei also dares to leave with confidence.However, some of the most important data will still be transported using relatively primitive means for insurance reasons.

After dealing with the matter in hand, Li Wei arrived at the company.Now that the scale of Dimension Gate has been expanded several times, there are quite a few subsidiaries under it. It took Li Wei a whole day to understand everything about all the subsidiaries.

Now the industry of Dimension Gate has formed an ecological chain, and it has become a closed loop from upstream to downstream. There is no need to worry about being stuck in the neck, which makes Li Wei very satisfied.
