"Game of the Year?"

Xu Rui was also a little confused when he received the contact from the public relations side.

He has heard about this annual game award. The organizer is a joint name of several game media. Unlike the annual animation, there is no industry association involved. Therefore, whether it is professional or authoritative, it is slightly inferior, even though it claims to be a game. The industry's largest award, but most game companies just laughed off.

The selection of the Game of the Year Awards is more concerned with the popularity and topicality of the game. For example, the year before last, there was a game that has not yet been officially released and is only in the testing phase in the list of candidates for the game of the year, just because the game is being tested. Many people played at the time, and the discussion was extremely hot. Although it was all BUG and plug-ins, it did not prevent entering the candidate list.

The annual game awards of that year also attracted a lot of attention. Of course, in the end, the game was not selected for any final awards. Even half a year after the selection, the game lost a large number of users due to the proliferation of plug-ins, and the game mode was changed by other games. Take it away and get cold.

But who cares, the annual game award only focuses on popularity.

There are five works for this year's nomination.

The game "Future of Tomorrow" produced by Soren is an apocalyptic survival FPS game with a high degree of freedom of linear plot. The game sold 5 million copies.

ES game's "Dragon Mission 10" is a classic turn-based RPG. The series has a history of more than ten years, and there are many diehard fans in China.

"Doom 4" of the cup game is a straightforward, linear plot shooting game. Compared with ordinary Sutu, it has many more skills and props and is more fun.

"Speed ​​Horizon 3" is produced by Fruit Jelly, which is a racing game that is famous for buying the copyright of real-life vehicles, and the scenery in the game is also good.

The last is "Bloodborne: Curse" by Hatsune Games.

After the announcement of the list of candidate works, an uproar was immediately set off on the Internet.

China’s largest console game forum, V9, is mainly composed of console players. The overall atmosphere is not worthy of PC gamers, and even more despise mobile game and page game players. In the words of some people, playing games also has contempt for the chain. .

For example, host players feel that they are the most noble, PCs are shoddy games, PC stand-alone gamers look down on online game players, thinking that they play games to deceive others for a thousand miles away, and PC online game players look down on mobile game players and feel that the games they play have a little connotation. No, mobile game players look down on page game players, thinking that they are all krypton sows and upstarts.

In other words, page game players are the bottom end of the game contempt chain.

In the V9 forum, players who like to hack other games the most, and in the relevant news posts, when you see the list of candidates for the annual game selection, the tide is instantly [BEEP——].

[Corn Bun]: It’s funny, why is there still a page game in it, and the judges are all thinking about the aircraft carrier?

[Red petals]: A few years ago, when I saw that game entered the judging list, I felt that this year’s game was the Pheasant Award. You don’t believe it, now it’s fine, even web games have been mixed in.

[White Bones]: When did you have the illusion that this award is not a pheasant award? Every year, the works are selected on the basis of heat. The judges don't understand the game at all, they just want to stir up the heat.

[LKOP]: It’s okay to be on the shortlist. If the game of the year is given to this spam page tour by then, are you afraid that your faces will be swollen?

[Prohibition of coriander]: I just want to know how much money Hatsune Game put into the jury to get a web game into the selection list.

[I look back confidently]: Anyone has played this page game before? I see my cousin plays every day, and there are many girls playing on Weibo.

[Curved spoon]: Who would waste time playing this? There are still many games in my house waiting for me to clear the level.

[Sesame Beancurd]: You are still too naive. Obviously, the jury is looking for a hot game. Don’t you know that "Bloodborne: Curse" has only been in operation for three months and has 15 million users Well, the turnover of the game in August and half was 300 million, and it was 500 million in September and October. In terms of earning power, none of the other games on the candidate list can play.

[Refreshing curly hair]: So many? ? ? Fuck, if I were a game manufacturer, I would try my best to make 3A for several years, and the money he made was not as profitable as the page game he made in half a year. Then I will be a ghost, everyone will do page games. Okay, don't play masterpieces anymore.

Many players who focus on single player feel that web games are pure krypton gold games, and there is no fun at all. "Bloodborne: Curse" must rely on some ulterior PY transactions to enter the candidate list, and more What's more, it is unreasonable for the entire game industry to think that making a big profit in web games will stifle the development of stand-alone masterpieces.

Xu Rui himself felt dazed.

He has never contacted the jury of the annual game award, nor has he asked the game department to send any materials, and he will not spend money to "buy" "Bloodborne: Curse" in.

To be honest, Xu Rui himself has a low degree of attention to these awards. Industry awards such as annual animation can still participate. After all, it is a professional judging award. The selection team composed of media such as the annual game award is in Xu Rui’s opinion. He didn't want to participate in the real pheasant award.

After receiving the contact, Xu Rui communicated with the jury of this year's game awards and found out that this group of judges just wanted to catch up with the popularity of "Bloodborne: Curse". You know, this game is now in a variety of ways. The hottest in the social circle, if it can be selected, it will spread the heat to the annual game award.

To put it simply, they chose "Bloodborne: Curse" to add topicality to themselves and to lead the war!

Xu Rui was a little bit dumbfounded. After all, this selection is essentially a media selection. Whether it wins or not won't have much impact on the game itself. Looking at it this way, "Bloodborne: Curse" is probably responsible for accompany running~www.mtlnovel. com~ heated up the atmosphere, and caused some controversy by the way. Although this kind of award is useless, he still has to give the game media a face, so as not to make a moth when he enters the console game later, so Xu Rui also I entered the competition by default.

Slightly cooperated with the jury to sort out some information, and checked this year’s nomination, "Bloodborne: Curse" was not only shortlisted for the game of the year, but also the best mobile game, the best social game, the best game music, the best game art, etc. Several sub-awards, it seems that the judges are particularly fond of this game.

The date of the awards was December 26th. Xu Rui looked at the arrangements. He didn’t have time for the time being, so he asked Hollofei to participate in the awards ceremony instead of him. He was busy with the selection of works for this year’s Spring Festival New Year’s greetings, and voices. The second work of Synthesizing Engine will work at a press conference held on New Year's Day.

Just a few days before the annual game awards ceremony, "Pure White Narcissus" also aired the last episode.

The previous super-expanding plots were continuous, leaving the audience stunned. The production team seemed to have really let go of themselves, although there are still audiences who are looking forward to it, the larger and larger plots can have a beautiful ending in the last episode.

But unexpectedly, the last episode of "Pure White Narcissus" actually created the history of China Animation!
