Chapter 2370 Beating up the designer
Lin Cheng claimed that he was a Class-A war criminal, but the skin designer refused to accept the accusation.
"No! No! No! We are trying our best to design skins that meet everyone's aesthetics. Players won't buy unsightly skins, right?"
Lin Cheng smiled and said nothing.
Is it okay not to buy it?
Do you know how players feel when they spend money to open various boxes but only to find a bunch of junk skins?
Doesn’t that count as paying for junk skin?
Of course, this cannot be blamed on the designers, but on the operators.
Especially the characteristics of horse clothing.
All kinds of rare skins can be found in the free treasure chests on other servers, but the horse server has removed these rare skins from the free treasure chests, forcing players to spend money to open the treasure chests, and then open a bunch of garbage. Does it feel good?
After joking for a while, the team members discussed the design of the championship skin with Jesse and another art director in front of the camera.
"Ashe! I want a two-dimensional style Ashe skin."
Beryl has a clear goal: "I couldn't explain it clearly in the official interview before. I hope you can refer to Gan Yu when making my Ashe skin."
Brother Genshin looked serious, he took the skin just to choose clothes for his 2D wife.
The Riot CEO next to him had a wonderful expression.
Of course, he smiled broadly in front of the camera.
After all, the nature of the game of Genshin Impact is different from that of LOL. The two sides are not on the same track and are not considered direct competitors.
It is worth mentioning that the six championship characters initially determined by KT players this year are all female heroes.
Rookie wants to wind up, and has already saved two-thirds of the two-ball-one-gi championship set.
Mr. Dai wants a policewoman, who already had Jinx skin last year.
Beryl wants ice.
Rascal wants Qinggangying.
What Cuzz wants is the excavator skin... Well~~~This thing is indeed female.
These guys are all very good. In the group stage, they had already finished the skin round when they encountered Fish Belly.
The team members don't have any precise requirements for skin design. The general requirement is that it looks good. Only Lin Cheng and Beryl have more requirements.
"I still want the Irelia skin! I hope the skin style will be like that of an elegant office lady! This time I want shredded meat and long legs!"
The designer expressed difficulty with Lin Cheng's conditions.
Over the years, the style of champion skins has to be consistent. It is too difficult for Lin Cheng to be an office OL.
Could it be that in order to accommodate Lin Cheng, this year's KT champion skin sets are all designed to be office animals?
Niccolò next to him had an even worse headache.
Lin Cheng has chosen the Dao Mei skin for two consecutive years. Although the sales of the skin in the first two years were exaggerated, fans may not buy it again.
Moreover, this year’s FMVP will have ultimate skins.
If Lin Cheng chooses Sword Girl again, he will get two more champion Sword Girl skins at once. How about wholesale?
"Cheng! I understand your love for Irelia, but..."
The two sides struggled for a while.
The teammates watched in bewilderment as Lin Cheng communicated fluently with Riot executives in English, with a hint of envy in their confusion.
As expected of studying at Seoul National University.
In the end, Lin Cheng said that he could accept the skin being replaced by Riwen.
After all, Riven is the only hero among the four sisters in the top lane who does not have a championship skin. Coupled with the factors of the sisters, Lin Cheng is very willing to sign his name on Riven's thigh.
But his design requirements are very cool.
"My champion skin should look like a lady with long legs and silk stockings. You must pay attention to the cool feeling of the original painting. The ultimate skin should have four switchable outfits: black stockings + white stockings + fishnet stockings + gray stockings. Each form The skin also needs to have different details..."
Lin Cheng described it nonchalantly, becoming more and more excited as he talked.
He feels that the setting of switching between the four forms of the ultimate skin is very reasonable, and he can completely refer to the four sisters of Tara for design.
This guy was so excited that the designer almost ran away with a bucket.
Do you want a champion skin?
Don't go too far!
Designing just one skin for you is more troublesome than designing a complete set in previous years.
Niccolò's eyes shone brightly. He really designed such a skin and couldn't sell it to expensive stores?
There's something going on!
Anyway, Lin Cheng has many fans and will pay for it.
Of course, the difficulties of skin designers must also be considered, and these follow-up discussions still need to be discussed by relevant personnel within Riot.
Leaving aside the skin details, everyone went to the second floor after bidding farewell to Jesse.
On the wall of the lobby on the second floor is a mural of the Battle of Two Cities. The various life-size LOL hero models on the wall are very exquisite. Occasionally, you can see related pictures of other games on the wall screen.
From these details, we can see how important LOL is to Riot's fortune.
Valorant is very popular now, but there is almost no trace of Valorant in the public areas of Riot headquarters. League of Legends has remained the most important pillar of Riot after so many years.
Everyone then visited the Internet cafe inside Riot.
Nicolo introduced: “This is where our employees play games. You can come here and play at any time as long as it doesn’t affect your work.”
"If you have time, it would be great to invite a few colleagues to come over and play together. It is also convenient to experience the game and improve it."
Brother Cuzz was surprised: “So the designer really plays games?”
The Korean girl named CC was snickering. She also knew that players were questioning whether the designer played the game or not.
Niccolò looked confused because he didn't understand Korean.
Lin Cheng secretly asked CC: "Can you play DOTA here? Are there any games that are not allowed to be played?"
"There are no regulations in that regard. Experiencing excellent games produced by other companies is also helpful for our work... But from the day I joined the company, I don't seem to have seen any employees playing other games here."
< br>
Lin Cheng asked: "Really? Is it possible that everyone who plays DOTA here has been kicked out? So you didn't see it?"
"Haha!"
After chatting and laughing, the team members also sat down to experience it in Riot’s Internet cafe.
Niccolò also specially hired Liama, the designer of the new hero Quisanti, to play solo with Lin Cheng.
The new hero Quisanti has been online for more than half a month, and it can be said that the entire canyon is full of complaints.
The mechanism is perfect, the numerical values are abnormal, he can resist and fight, he has control, displacement, and noble real damage, and his pure physical damage is also off the charts. Quisanti is currently recognized by players as the most capable hero of 1 vs. 5.
The key point is that Quisanti does not have extremely high operational requirements like Dao Mei, which seems very unreasonable.
Lin Cheng had played against quite a few Quesantis on the US server in the past half month, and he was a little speechless about this heroic supermodel.
Due to the World Championship version, it is impossible for Lin Cheng to practice Quisanti. It feels bad to watch others enjoy themselves but not be able to join.
Therefore, Lin Cheng and the designer SOLO selected Quisanti.
It was quite cruel to start with.
"Is this the Quisanti you designed? I'll kill you!!!"
"Can you play games?"
"Balance is made with feet?"
"Look! Is this hero made by humans?"
"This is my first time playing! I can hang you up and beat you."
While beating his opponent violently with Quisanti, Lin Cheng was still muttering and complaining.
Chi Shengxi was filming nearby and her hands were shaking with laughter. She had already thought of the title of this Vlog.
"Cheng: I'm at Riot headquarters, beating up game designers!" 》(End of this chapter)
