Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Sitting in front of the computer, Zhang Yi is also looking forward to unlocking the experience of the demo version of "Warcraft".

"Hey, why did Nebula Games make an RTS game this time?" Wang Han, who was sitting next to Zhang Yi, was chatting with Qiao Yi while swiping information on his mobile phone.

For RTS games, Wang Han and Qiao Yi don't like it very much.

Played, but can't play.

Because it feels too complicated.

Most big computer people.

"I feel that the game "Warcraft" may be different." Zhang Yi said.

In his own words, he also plays RTS games occasionally, but it is not very powerful, just the level of ordinary people.

It belongs to the kind of boring head and making soldiers, and then the mouse frame is aimed at the enemy base A past.

A wave of decisive victory and defeat, my soldiers are dead, then you win.

If my soldiers are not dead, then I'm sorry your base is gone.

"Yes, multiplayer battles in "Warcraft" are hard to say, but I feel that the single-player mode should be better." Song Ren said to Wang Yifan in the voice channel.

"What kind of plot can RTS have? The previous single-player plot of "Human War" almost fell asleep playing for me." Wang Han said.

She has also been exposed to some RTS games before, thinking that many people can't play it, and the simple computer is tired of playing, let's play the single-player story.

As a result, I really pulled my hips, which can be described in one sentence.

That is the enemy is coming, what should we do.

We defeated the enemy and won, but a new enemy came.

Really almost put her to sleep.

"I can't compare Chen Xu with other manufacturers. I still trust him, although he always makes a little bit of a moth." Zhang Yi is very confident in "Warcraft".

Especially that CG animation really shocked Zhang Yi.

I have never seen a game company that can invest so much in RTS before.

And the brief one-minute CG video content of "Warcraft" at that time also made Zhang Yi very concerned.

Because he felt that this "Warcraft" was different from the general RTS, which made the so-called single-player story directly into a novice teaching level.

He feels that "Warcraft" really seems to have a complete single-player story at that time.

When I think of the subversion of 'RTS type' and '700 million development cost' mentioned by Chen Xu at the beginning. ’

Zhang Yi also has a bold guess, that is, whether "Warcraft" will have enough articles in the plot.

Like most players, he felt that Chen Xu, who first set foot in the RTS field, might not be able to do things like balance in the multiplayer mode.

But the single-player story is different.

This test is the level design, and Chen Xu's level design, think about "Dark Souls" and "Dark Souls", is it still doubtful?

So he felt that in the game "Warcraft", it is very likely that Chen Xu was making a fuss about the single-player plot.

He is quite confident about the games produced by Nebula Games.

Even he secretly bought a collector's edition of "Warcraft" with his own private money!

Of course, this matter must not be let her know, otherwise the clothes may be washed by him in the future.

After all, buying the collector's edition of "Warcraft" is not the key point, the key point is that he has private money.

"It's alright, alright, you play it first and I'll watch it. If it's fun, I'll try it myself. Anyway, the game can't run away here." Wang Han said to Zhang Yi.

"It's time! Lao Zhang, I've turned off the microphone!" Song Ren's excited voice came from the voice channel.

"O.***.K!" Zhang Yi replied and immediately clicked on the "Warcraft" chart.

Entering the game, the LOGO of the Nebula game flashed by.

The first is a CG animation.

It is the CG promotional animation that Chen Xu released on the official blog before.

Zhang Yi has watched it more than once, but this time he still did not choose to skip it.

CG content is still relatively easy to understand.

It means that humans and orcs are not good friends, but hostile camps, but suddenly an evil enemy fell from the sky, and the orcs and humans had to unite.

Soon the CG animation ended, and a UI interface of the game appeared.

The background behind is a scene similar to an iceberg, which should be a scene in the game.

Forget about quitting the game and setting options.

Zhang Yi observed that there are three different options in the game.

Story battles, local LAN battles, and network battles.

It's just that the current network battle and LAN are gray, obviously the trial version does not support it.

But this made Zhang Yi excited for a while, because judging from the content of the demo version, Chen Xu just wanted players to experience the single-player plot. Doesn't this match his guess?

"Let me see how this single-player plot is going!" With excitement, Zhang Yi clicked the button of the plot battle with anticipation.

The story campaign is no different from other games, and you can choose the difficulty before entering.

Simple, common and difficult.

Zhang Yi thought about this, and chose the easiest difficulty.

"You are too embarrassing." Wang Han next to him couldn't help but be speechless.

The simplest is the easiest. Your mouse hovers back and forth between difficult and normal for three or four seconds. What does it mean if you don't choose the last one.

"Cough cough... This is Mr. Chen's game after all. Thinking about Dark Souls and Monster Hunter: World, I'm planning ahead." Zhang Yi coughed awkwardly and explained.

After selecting the difficulty, what appears in Zhang Yi's current screen is a 'Chapter 1'. Obviously, this single-player plot is a linear game, and it needs to be played chapter by chapter.

After opening the first chapter, Zhang Yi was shocked.

Because there are too many levels in this first chapter! ?

He counted it a little, and there were twelve small chapters!

But only the first one is lit, showing the name of the level: 'Thrall's Vision - Finding the Prophet' (original prologue merged with Chapter 1)

The rest are still gray, and the level name cannot be seen clearly.

"I just don't know how long each level lasts." Zhang Yi was more and more looking forward to it.

Just click on the first prologue level.

The screen gradually fell into darkness, and the narration sounded.

'The grit of time is exhausted, son of Durotan. ’

'The horn of war echoes in the wind, the afterimages of the old days poison the earth, and the raging fire of war burns the world again. ’

'Leading a thousand armies to stain the battlefield with blood, mortals blindly rush to their doomsday, not knowing that the burning shadow is about to devour all things. ’

'You must gather the tribe and lead them to their destiny! ’

On the battlefield, the human army and the orc army were fighting, and then, just like the cutscenes at the beginning, countless fireballs burning with green flames fell from the sky.

The next moment the camera cuts to a high tomb, and an orc in the barracks who has just woken up from a nightmare is in a trance.

This CG is equivalent to the completion of the content in the previous publicity CG, but it also caused Zhang Yi a lot of doubts and curiosity.

Human beings fight with orcs, what is the existence of the flame man who fell from the sky?

What is the burning shadow?

And who is the last wizard mysterious man?

Controlling the orc named Thrall who woke up from a nightmare, Zhang Yi was full of curiosity.

However, curiosity returned to curiosity, and he quickly turned his attention back to the game.

A character named Thrall moves forward under the guidance of the prophet.

But what surprised him the most was the quality of the entire game.

Zooming in on the camera, he could even clearly see a beautifully modeled character in the game.

The textures, including the water on the ground and the grass, are quite beautiful.

Is this really an RTS game?

The quality is too high!

The content of the game has not been played yet.

But just a modeling and screen in "Warcraft", combined with the previous CG, Zhang Yi was amazed for a while.

It can only be said that the performance of "Warcraft" in front of him completely exceeded his expectations.

Compared with CG animation, there is indeed a big gap.

But compared with other RTS games, the content does not say that at least the sales are already too strong!
