Chapter 225 Response
The two parties were still arguing about this, and the hot search just went up the next morning.
Luo Bai, the organizer of this event and the true uncrowned king of the entire domestic stand-alone gaming circle, released a video.
It can be regarded as a formal response to this incident.
The people who are most looking forward to Luo Bai's response are undoubtedly the well-known game developers who came to participate in the nursery program this time.
Everyone knows that whether the qualification will be revoked or not depends solely on this man's thoughts.
Different from the various quarrels on the Internet, the two parties analyzed in detail the possible impact of Mr. Luo's choice.
What these guys know very well is:
In fact, no matter which side Luo Bai chooses, it will not have much impact on his original intention, Luo Bai, or this event.
Who is the real light of domestic games? (tactical fallback)
The so-called failure to clean up this group of game makers, so that newbies will not dare to participate in this event in the future is completely bullshit.
Such a good opportunity is here, the opportunity to reach the sky in one step is here.
There are so many graduates from the Second World War and the Third World War in the postgraduate and public examinations. Is it because others have studied for a few more years than you and you don’t want to pursue this path?
It will only become more curled!
It's so easy for humans to deceive their own species.
"Is it possible that I am that one genius?"
As the video begins, the screen shakes.
The person who recorded the video said: "Brother Luo, let's get started."
Luo Bai nodded, looked at the camera in front of him calmly and said:
“First of all, I would like to thank the industry insiders and players for their strong support for the original intention breeding plan.
Compared with the first edition, the second edition of the Chuxin Seedling Program has seen a huge improvement in both the quantity and quality of games.
I am very happy to see more and more game developers participating in this event and emerging among our vast domestic game audience. ”
Having said this, Luo Bai smiled and clapped vigorously towards the camera for a few seconds.
"Of course, I also know that in today's video, you are definitely not watching me say such clichés.
For some current game producers who already have a certain reputation in the industry, they can participate in the original intention breeding program.
The issue of whether their qualifications should be revoked is currently very hotly debated on the Internet.
Both sides seem to have their own reasons.
In fact, my personal idea is to disqualify these people from participating..."
When I heard this, I don’t know how many players and game developers cheered.
I don’t know how many players and well-known game developers are aggrieved.
But at this time, Luo Bai suddenly gasped:
"Should we not disqualify these people?"
If nothing else, the barrage exploded anyway.
"Grandma, even though I knew this was a common method used in variety shows, I still successfully took the bait.
The mood is completely up, hard, and the fist is hard. ”
"Mr. Luo, can we stop gasping for breath? Your head is scared to death."
"Actually, everyone is arguing here and there just because they want you to give an answer. The original intention nursery program is run by your organization.
No matter what decision you make, we can actually accept it. ”
Perhaps anticipating the reaction of netizens, Luo Bai smiled very treacherously in the video, causing many netizens to criticize him.
"Okay, let's not deal with all the bad things. Let's talk about our original intention first.
We chose not to disqualify those individuals. ”
Having said this, Luo Bai nodded slightly,
"In a sense, the essence of the seedling program is to discover some domestic ideas.
However, due to limited resources, the activities of game producers are unable to transform their ideas into reality.
Therefore, whether you are a veteran game producer or a novice who has just entered this industry, we will treat them equally in our eyes.
To put it bluntly, the current original intention is not only in terms of technical reserves, but also in the resource support that can be invested in the game development process.
In the current domestic stand-alone development ecosystem, there is no doubt that it stands on another level.
All of you are the same in my eyes. ”
After a brief explanation, Luo Bai changed the subject:
"Of course, the above explanation is not intended to convince one of the parties currently being debated on the Internet.
I have also noticed the questions raised by many game producers, whether allowing these game producers who already have certain skills and resources to enter the game will make the original nursery plan no longer fair.
First of all, I have to admit that this is certainly unfair.
In this year's nursery program, I saw a lot of 3D demos that are quite mature.
For many developers who are still using RPG game editors to make games, this is completely a dimensionality reduction blow.
Here, on the one hand, it is also to resolve the dispute, and on the other hand, it is also to talk openly and honestly with everyone about what the final works of the Original Intention Project that can be signed with contracts should be based on.
Be creative! ”
Luo Bai stretched out a finger and looked at the screen seriously:
"Creativity is undoubtedly the core influencing factor in my mind."
When it comes to this, the players and game developers who watched this video at this time calmed down more or less.
Since creativity is the core criterion, even if there is some unfairness, the impact will be minimal.
After all, unless the gap is really too big, which game developer would admit that his creativity is inferior to others?
Especially those fledgling game developers, isn't the reason why they are willing to enter this industry because they have a dream in their hearts to shock the world with their works?
And if the gap in creativity is really too big and the skills are inferior to others, then there is no dispute at all.
Having said this, Luo Bai stretched out a second finger:
“The second criterion is whether the idea can be accepted by the public.
Of course, this is too broad a statement, so I’ll be more straightforward and ask whether this idea can make money.
No matter what you do, you must be down-to-earth, and playing games is certainly no exception.
Needless to say, everyone should understand that someone who is half a step ahead is a genius, and someone who is one step ahead is a madman.
If a studio or game company wants to operate reasonably, at least the works can still bring profits to the developers after putting aside all development costs.
In this way, it is a relatively benign development process.
Of course, for now, for the many developers participating in the nursery program, this is not an issue you need to consider.
After the contract is signed, Chuxin will be responsible for solving all financial and technical problems that you need to solve during the game development process.
As for whether the game will make a loss or a profit in the end..."
Luo Bai smiled bitterly:
"I'm not a God. Wanda did lose money at that time, and the cost of "Mizuki" two years ago was indeed not recovered at the beginning. Although the follow-up of these two works will undoubtedly be through apart from the game itself I made money back through channels other than sales, but there was something wrong with my vision at the time, which is irrefutable.
So, in summary, I ranked creativity first and this influencing factor second.
In other words, even if this game is destined to lose money, as long as it can bring some inspiration to the industry and bring some brand-new content.
Our original intention is still to fully pay for this idea.
We have made so much money along the way, so it’s time to do something for this industry. ”
Luo Bai said the last sentence very sincerely and solemnly.
This unswerving determination is also conveyed through the video to everyone watching this video at this moment.
"I'm in tears. The original intention is just like its name. It has never let us players down.
The domestic stand-alone game development environment is getting better and better. It is a great luck to meet someone like Mr. Luo in the best of times, and both parties can achieve mutual success. ”
"I am a newbie who has just entered the industry, and this time I can be regarded as the pioneer in the nursery plan who opposes allowing the "old guys" to participate in this activity.
Originally, I was quite angry that Mr. Luo didn’t cancel those people’s quotas, but now...
Who is afraid of whom! Come and do it! I don’t believe that our creativity will lose to you! ”
"Everyone is shouting like an old guy. In fact, we are also very helpless. Our average age is less than forty, okay?
I am very grateful to Mr. Luo for not disqualifying our group and giving us a chance to compete.
We know that creativity is the main judging factor, but you guys don’t get too happy too early.
Who can reach this position today without having two brushes? Let’s fight head-on with real swords and guns! ”
When the two parties decided to gear up and compete head-on in the game,
Luo Bai said the third and final criterion:
“Third, you at least want your game to be visible to the public.
Different from the first original intention breeding plan, the number of game producers participating in this event at that time was far less exaggerated than it is today.
Many of these works, it is difficult to even say that they are demos of a game. They feel like animations that can be interacted with through the mouse, boring and perfunctory.
Under such a premise, the four games of Great Desolation, Eclipse, Legend of Mountains and Seas, and Mizuki stand out, which is more like picking up pearls on the beach.
Everyone has seen the popularity of the second Chuxin Breeding Program. With so many games, the players’ energy is limited, and the energy of our Chuxin staff is also limited.
It's impossible to play every game.
Among them, there must be many works that are too perfunctory, or too mediocre in some aspects, and have been ignored by us.
It may be that the idea of a certain game is really good, but if you miss it, you miss it.
This is a loss both to our original intentions and to yourselves.
This is why I said before that it is impossible to be absolutely fair.
You must at least be seen by everyone so that everyone can discover your excellence.
Whether it is players or our original staff, they are definitely more willing to experience works with better picture quality, more comfortable UI design, and more unique painting styles.
The composition of a game will never be as simple as creativity, and under the premise of insufficient funds and a very crude game development environment.
How to provide a point that attracts players and original staff to experience it is a question that the majority of developers need to consider.
Similarly, this is also a directional training for you to accurately control the market in the future.
It can be a beautiful vertical painting on the homepage of your game demo, it can be a targeted promotion that you have a large number of fans, it can be a subject that will definitely make people want to experience it...
Of course, I am just giving a few examples.
These demos are like our children, and I hope everyone can be responsible for their children.
I represent my original intention, and the only thing I can promise you is this.
We cannot necessarily select all the excellent games in this current nursery plan, but we can ensure that all the games selected are excellent enough! ”
Luo Bai's final firm promise brings the video to an end.
It also resolved the antagonism between old and new game producers in the second nursery plan.
As Mr. Luo said, perhaps the nursery plan cannot be absolutely fair and just, but at least it can be relatively fair and just.
And the only endorsement of this total credibility is the man who currently stands at the top of domestic stand-alone games.
As for whether Luo will make any small moves.
Will everyone forget that you dared to go head-to-head with the biggest game companies in the country when you were broke?
Does the Internet really have no memory? No way, right?
Tianxing: "NMSL, why did you drag me out to whip the corpse again?!
Isn’t this thing in the past? Didn’t we, Tianxing, start to cooperate with each other? Shivering! ”
The feedback from Luo Bai's video was very immediate.
Under the premise that this year's original nursery plan has brought such great popularity, it has also brought great expectations to countless players.
Creativity is king!
However, ideas must be discoverable.
The power that determines whether this game can be discovered lies in the hands of all players.
"If I could find a game that was so creative, that would be awesome!"
Suddenly, many players stopped looking at the rankings at all and directly opened the vast demo list.
Use the random number generator to randomly select a page number, jump to it and click on the game to start playing.
Let's just say... it's normal to choose bad games, but as long as the base is large enough, there are still many that are so bad in some aspects that people don't even want to open them, but the core gameplay does have merits. games have been discovered one after another.
"This year's Original Seedling Breeding Project is a masterpiece not to be missed!" 》
"I don’t even play the game X on the ranking list!" If you want to play, come play this! 》
"The biggest dark horse in this year's nursery program!" 》
All the veteran game producers are numb.
The last line of Mr. Luo's video simply inspired the rebellious psychology of some bored players.
I don’t even take a look at the games that everyone is optimistic about.
Just love the niche! I just love discovering the niche!
Originally, they had a certain first-mover advantage, but now this advantage is undoubtedly gone.
What a fart!
This can be regarded as a small punishment from Luo Bai to these guys who "broke the rules".
You want to seize this opportunity. I can't say that you are wrong, but it is true that the means are not very ethical.
It’s good that you haven’t been disqualified. Please bear with me otherwise!
