Chapter 321： Publish tasks, and fight chicken blood
Chapter 321 Release quests, and fight chicken blood
The main line process of Final Fantasy 7 is about ten hours to twenty hours, of course, this should exclude the time of text dialogue.
This is not too long in the main line in previous role-playing games.
But if you do some side quests and play some small games or something, a role-playing game can make people play patiently for sixty or seventy hours.
This is what is now considered a standard length for role-playing games.
Before, some game companies wanted to increase the overall length of the plot, but the final results were not very good. Many commentators thought that such a long story made people feel a little sleepy.
However, the real reason is not that the main line of the game is too long, but that the content is too repetitive.
Those developers who want to lengthen the game time deliberately can't find more elements that can be added in a short time, just simply increase the repetitive content of the game itself.
And this time, Zhu Yuxing will open up the whole world view.
GS1 is the door to a new era, and Takeyusei hopes that Final Fantasy 7 can be that key.
In the face of Yuki Uesugi's question, Zhu Yuxing directly answered that one was not enough, which made everyone stunned.
The gameplay, world map size, content, plot, etc. proposed by Zhu Yuxing in the project case have directly raised a dimension, which was not dared to think in the past.
And they just imagined that the cost of such game development will not be low. The labor cost of a team of four or five hundred people is a lot of money, not to mention other resources. This is somewhat of a gamble.
In the past, the development of games has been controlled within a certain range. Generally, the investment of a game is about less than five million US dollars, and only a few top series games of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment have been developed. The cost has reached 10 million US dollars.
This also makes many people in the industry always think that game development is of this magnitude, and the cost investment will not be too exaggerated.
Although it is not that no one has thought about the big investment and big return, but no one dares to be the first person to eat crabs, because the cost is a bit high, once the big investment cannot recover the cost, the entire company may be dragged immediately. collapse.
And there are not many companies that have the ability to make large investments to make games. They are still in the exploratory stage, so they are naturally more cautious in terms of capital investment.
The bigger the company, the less likely it is to take risks.
In the film and television industry, it is not uncommon for a film and television company to go bankrupt directly because of a large investment in a film.
What's more, the video game industry is still a nascent field.
"President, isn't that enough? So can we make the game bigger in the future?"
"Yes, this is just a tentative start. I have prepared a $100 million investment in this game, and there will be at least 50 million in reserve at any time."
This is a verification of his company's game industry system. After so many years of accumulation of experience, Zhu Yuxing believes that his company still has this strength and will definitely be able to develop a good enough game. Now it's just a chance. Final Fantasy 7 is like this. a chance.
The initial investment of 100 million US dollars really surprised everyone, which directly raised the upper limit of the previous game development cost to ten times, which sounds almost like gambling.
At this moment, Tsukino Aya came to the conference room at some point, and sat alone in the corner of the conference room listening to Take Yusei painting a cake there.
When she heard Zhu Yuxing talk about development and investment, she was also a little surprised, but soon she also showed a look of longing.
Such capital investment will also be unimaginable in the human and material resources that can be mobilized. If it is successful, this will definitely be an opportunity to detonate the industry.
It's a pity that she doesn't have that much money, and she doesn't have so much manpower and material resources to drive her, otherwise she would really like to be the first person to eat crabs.
In the eyes of Zhu Yuxing, the investment of this billion-dollar Academy of Fine Arts is actually just a small scene.
Which of the large-scale 3A games in later generations is not an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Big investment will have big returns, and at the same time, the risks are also extremely high.
However, with the mature game templates of the predecessors, the risks taken by Zhu Yuxing are naturally infinitely reduced.
Even if it really loses, 100 million US dollars is still affordable. Now the company has reserves of 700 million to 800 million US dollars, and it is no problem to burn three or four games of this scale. Dare to have a good time.
Uesugi Yuki obviously wanted to say something, but Zhu Yuxing raised his hand to interrupt the other party: "I know what you want to say, I will answer you directly, I can afford the money, and the company will not have any problems because of it. , you just give full play to your creativity, you only need to worry about your lack of creativity now, and don’t have to think about other issues.”
After saying that, Zhu Yuxing looked at everyone seriously, with sincere eyes.
"In the past, we were limited by the capacity of game cartridges and the performance limitations of game consoles, which prevented us from making better games. This has always been a regret of mine, so this time, I think it should be possible. Trying to expand, but also to prove the development strength of our company, we have been leading the industry in the past, and this new era is coming, and I hope to do the same.”
To lead the industry again is a very grand statement.
But Zhu Yuxing did have the confidence to say such a thing.
Because he has been leading the industry in the past.
Uesugi Yuki said nothing, and the other two remained silent.
But there was excitement in their eyes.
It was the excitement of finally being able to give it your all.
Since the president has said so, the only thing they can do is to make the content of the request the best.
On the one hand, this meeting is to issue general tasks to everyone, on the other hand, it is actually equivalent to a mobilization meeting.
Mobilize everyone to join the gamble.
If it is successful, they will also gain huge benefits, such as a substantial increase in game development experience, and an increase in fame.
The leaders of the three major game development teams will inevitably become more famous, and their industry status will rise with the tide.
Especially Arga, he just became the head of the development team not long ago, and this game development may make him a blockbuster.
The only pity is that this is not the game development he led alone, otherwise the fame and status should be higher in the future.
