Chapter 145: Release date is determined

For the mobile game, Yang Chen didn't pay much attention after completing the corresponding GDD, because the development progress of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" has been mostly completed.

The entire framework including the game has been built, and even the beta version of the game has been completed.

Yang Chen’s main energy is still on the project The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim.

But Nebula Games knows that the game is almost coming to an end, but players in the game circle, including those who have been expecting "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", are not aware of the progress of the game.

In particular, the previous Nebula game suddenly announced that it will stop "Warm World Tour", return the money recharged by players, and then remake.

The news even tickled the hearts of players.

Do you still do "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim"?

When will it be possible to play!

Faced with the expectations of players, Yang Chen and Nebula games have always maintained a silent attitude.

But privately it is already negotiating the release date of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim".

The progress of the development is gratifying, including post-production and the like, and almost two months are completely sufficient.

The rest is to determine the release date of the game, which is a very important thing with the promotion date.

But for the game's release date, there was some trouble.

"In August, September, and October, there are successive 3A-level masterpieces to be announced at home and abroad, and Phoenix's "Sword of Kings" and Tenghua's "Fantasy" that are directly competitive with us in August are both The ARPG belongs to the magic type, and the overseas power storm has also brought an RPG type game. These are very strong opponents."

"In addition, although NetDragon has promised to release "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" with all its strength, in July, their masterpiece "Shadow Legend" will be launched, and the tilt in resources will definitely be more biased towards "Shadow Legend". ."

Xu Yu reported the main news to Yang Chen in the meeting room.

Choosing a suitable game release time is very important for a game.

Even 3A-level games, or long-established game makers will not take it lightly.

Perhaps many players feel that if the game is fun, they will not worry about selling it. Even if it is not sold at the beginning, it will follow up later.

Most games respect this standard, but there are exceptions.

Shi Yeming, there are always some games with excellent quality, whether it is the media rating, or the player evaluation is very high, but at the same time, I chose the wrong release time and hit some explosive games, and the sales became bleak. .

It is still the same sentence, there are a lot of players, they are not playing games, but the heat.

This group of players is the main force of game consumption.

Especially 3A games of this level, rely on these main forces.

This is why the sales of a game in the first month of sales can even account for 70% or more of the total game sales.

Because it is this period of time that the game has the highest popularity, which can attract enthusiastic players to make purchases.

"Three choices, the first is to go online in advance, and the game will be launched in mid-June; the second is to release the game at the end of October; the third is to directly compete with these games for a quality and a bayonet." Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen Said.

Advance, postpone, or compete head-on.

After listening to Xu Yu's words, Yang Chen deleted the option of going online early without thinking.

Going online in mid-June, the time left for them is only one and a half months. At this time, the game is estimated to be completed, but it is too hasty.

Subsequent revisions, including BUG inspections, and detailed content corrections.

Such a little time is not enough.

"Just in August, or September, I have enough confidence in the quality of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", we cannot release a game in the future, we must look at the schedule of others." Yang Chen thought I thought very seriously.

On the strength of publishers, NetDragon is one of the top three in China.

Regarding the cost of the game, the actual development cost of 350 million is put there.

On the development team, the top outsourcing team, the three strongest self-research capabilities of NetDragon's motion capture studio, and the technical team, as well as the rising star of the game industry, Changan Studio and Lin Jiayi joined.

And the mature template reference in dream memory, Yang Chen feels that such a lineup, not to mention whether it is the world's top, but at least it is also first-class.

Moreover, the games that were launched in August and September, a "Sword of Kings" and a "Fantasy" are also new IPs of Phoenix and Tenghua. Why can't "Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" participate in this In a war?

"After confirming, I have to negotiate with NetDragon. If we want to change it in the future, we will bear all the compensation for the liquidated damages." Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen and reminded him.

"No problem, just set it." Yang Chen nodded.

"Now that this is settled, it is best to start playing more hype in the near future; and there is a not-so-small game exhibition in Shanghai in May. The other party sent an invitation letter. Are we going to participate? "Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen and said.

Hearing Xu Yu's words, Yang Chen smiled: "In terms of publicity, the trailer is already done. As for the show, let's just forget it. Anyway, when the time really goes, it will be the same as before."

…………

Time passed slowly,

In May, NetDragon officially launched its own game "Shadow Legend".

Including Tenghua and Phoenix also began to promote their "Fantasy" and "King's Sword". UU reading www.uukanshu.com

The developer's game production history interviews, exclusive interviews, and various media after trial play in the professional news bar, rave reviews.

At the same time, the official blog and the official website released the original paintings in the game, and also announced some special gameplay and systems.

We are already warming up for the game to be launched soon.

The Nebula game and "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" still have nothing to do.

For all players who are looking forward to "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", the only information channel that can be harvested is Yang Chen's official blog.

But the information usually obtained is how hard the staff is, and the daily news that the food in the cafeteria is not very delicious.

All in all, the game is being done, but I will not tell you where it is.

As for the game industry, the project "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" is still very concerned.

After all, it is involved with NetDragon, and Nebula itself is also a dark horse in the industry. With the addition of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" itself, the development cost is also very large, which can be said to be a strong opponent.

Both Tenghua and Phoenix maintained close attention, but with the end of the day, there was still no news on The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, and many people began to discuss and speculate.

Maybe the development is in a bottleneck, or the development progress is not as fast as theirs?

Think about whether this is normal, after all, it can be said that Yang Chen is in charge of the 3A level project for the first time.

And when everyone felt that "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" should be the development progress is not high, at 1 o'clock in the evening on weekdays, Yang Chen secretly released a message on the official blog.
