The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games Chapter 210

  Chapter 210 208. Come on! I have been preparing for a year!

  After watching Capcom's "Monster Hunter" promo, the players in the island country were also confused.

  The next day, there was a heated discussion about "Monster Hunter" on the Internet.

   "That's it?! I thought I had watched a low-end "Shan Hai Jing""

   "Are?! It turns out that it's not just my illusion? When I watched it at the time, I also felt this way. It seemed like I had seen the promotional video of Monster Hunter somewhere.

  Later, I only remembered it after O'Neill's reminder. It turned out to be a bit similar to the previous "Shan Hai Jing" promotional video released by the month. "

   "The most important thing is that neither the picture nor the lens is as good as in Shan Hai Jing. I feel that the Monster Hunter we have been waiting for for a few years is a bit embarrassing."

"Not so, I think it is possible to release games now. As long as it involves the free exploration of the big world, the possibilities are the same. What's more, both games are action types and have monsters, which deepens everyone's [similar feelings]. ].

  You can only know when you play the game. "

   "Well, I hope so."

  From the promo video, Bomi slightly is better. Although it was expected by Cao Yang, when he saw the evaluation of most players on the Internet, Cao Yang was still very proud and enjoying himself.

  " "Monster Hunter" does not feel as good as the "Shan Hai Jing" picture, at least from the promos of both sides."

   "Really, the promotional film of "Shan Hai Jing" is obviously better than the strange hunting. More importantly, I don't know why, I always feel a sense of intimacy in Shan Hai Jing, but the monster hunter wants to be farther away from us."

  The scriptures of mountains and oceans are more intimate, almost a common understanding of islanders.

  This is also a matter of course. After all, the island culture is derived from Chinese culture, and Shan Hai Jing is another ancient book. Some people even speculate that this geography magazine is about the Chinese civilization 9,000 years ago.

  But the specifics can't be studied.

  Anyway, there are so many stories and images derived from the Shanhaijing, and finally gradually moving towards mythology. Countless people are shocked by the rare birds and exotic animals and various magnificent stories described in the Shanhaijing.

  Many of the novels about ghosts and monsters in the island country are also derived from Chinese culture, such as the very famous Onmyoji, Hyakki Yexing...There are many images of monsters and shikigami from China.

  Many are directly from Shanhaijing.

  So, although the two promotional videos are about things between people and monsters, "Shan Hai Jing" gives the islanders a more cordial impression, which is natural.

  Now Bomi and Capcom are suffocating a lot of energy. In the end, it depends on the actual game experience to tell the winner.

  Because of the promotional film, before they knew it, the players compared the two games.

  It is still unclear who will die in the end.

  Players are waiting for the release of these two games.

  Currently, time is on Bomi's side.

Capcom also wanted to put "Monster Hunter" in the physical store for sale earlier, but the production of Monster Hunter has not been fully completed. It is still in urgent rush, and the game has also produced a lot of bugs, which has not been too late. convergence.

  According to the estimation of the Monster Hunter production team, there are at least 2 months left.

  In other words, Monster Hunter will not be able to meet the players until at least March.

  In this way, it is the first to complete its own purification, and the more complete "Shan Hai Jing" seizes the opportunity.

  Fortunately, the release platform of "Monster Hunter" does not conflict with "Shan Hai Jing". One is for sale on ps2 and the other is for sale on PC.

  The reason why Bomi chose PC for sale is very simple—

  There is no production technology for game consoles in China. There are currently two mainstream game models in the world, one is ps2 and the other is xbox.

  PS2 is a home game console developed by Sony in the island country, and Xbox is a game console produced by Microsoft in the United States.

  China's game console technology can be said to be very backward, and it hasn't even started. Up to now, China's game consoles are still in the era of Xiaobawang.

  The main reason is, on the one hand, the lack of relevant technical talents, and on the other hand, it is also because of the technical blockade, especially with regard to the hardware technology of game consoles. You can't make it out without a few years of exploration.

  Like Microsoft's later entry into the game console market, the price it paid was more than $5 billion.

Except for the country, there is no company in China that can spend such a high price on the research and development of game consoles. What's more, even if the research and development is done, there is a high probability that it will be a waste of water. With billions of dollars of investment, there is not even a splash.

  At this time last year, the country banned the import of foreign game consoles.

  The reason for banning game consoles is simple—

  It is mainly out of anti-dumping strategy and wants to support the domestic game console market.

  On the other hand, it is also equivalent to supporting the industry chain related to game consoles, the most important of which is the chip.

  Game consoles are the same as PCs, and both need their own unique chips.

  If the domestic game console industry can do it, there will naturally be demand for chips and parts for various game consoles. In this way, it can drive the common development of the upstream and downstream industry chains.

  This area is very beneficial. It will not only enable the development of relevant domestic high-tech technologies, but also invigorate the market, drive the development of the industrial chain, and provide many jobs.

  Unfortunately, there is not a company that has the strength and capital to do this in China, so the game console industry has been in a stagnant state. It can be said that it has failed the above good intentions.

  Since there is no self-developed game console in China, coupled with the above game console ban, it is even more impossible for foreign game consoles to enter China.

  Under such an environment, Bomi didn't have any good choices. Cao Yang could not abandon the Chinese market and develop software for foreign game consoles alone. That went against his original intention of making games.

  So I can only choose to develop "Shan Hai Jing" into a pc game.

  In this way, it means that "Shan Hai Jing" cannot log on to the PS2 platform in a short time.

  When the islanders developed the PS2, it was to enable it to form a patent barrier. The operating system is completely different from the PC, and it can be said that it is the product of two platforms.

  In this way, the benefits are very obvious—

  It is very difficult for games released on PS to be pirated or ported to the PC side. It is equivalent to developing a lot of code from the bottom, plus various operations and interface adaptations, which are completely different from the PC side.

  After doing these things, you are almost equivalent to rewriting the game.

  So even if you want to port the PC side, the production team of the game must do the porting.

  It is easier to transplant from PC to xbox, so Cao Yang considered transplanting xbox after finishing the English version of "Shan Hai Jing" for some time.

  Xbox is compatible with windows, because Microsoft itself is a developer, so it will be more convenient to transplant xbox.

  However, we still have to do some processing on the operating system, which is not a small project.

To give a simple example, to play a game on a game console is to use the handle to play. The buttons and joysticks of the handle are completely different from the keyboard. So if it is not designed according to the operation mode of the game console at the beginning, The transplantation does have a lot of trouble in the future.

  Since the main publishing platform of Bomi's "Shan Hai Jing" is a computer, and the main publishing platform of "Monster Hunter" is PS2, then the production team of Monster Hunter can breathe a sigh of relief, and everyone will not form a head-on conflict for the time being.

  If "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is released on PS2, it really has to fight to death and life, it is impossible to not see the blood.

  On February 1, 2004, Bomi's "Shan Hai Jing" was officially released.

  Early in the morning, a long line has been lined up all over the country and at the door of major software stores in East Island.

  Now Bomi's games have a brand effect, and the quality is guaranteed.

  When players hear Bomi's production, they know that this game is generally not bad.

  Especially the stand-alone games produced by Bomi, one is really better than one.

  Even the "King of Glory: Prequel" that was criticized most by players last year is now a word-of-mouth counterattack, and it has become a masterpiece in everyone's mind.

  There are even some animation production companies in island countries who want to negotiate with Xingyue and want to animate the King of Glory series.

  A Zhe was originally the small owner of an audio-visual product store in the Imperial Capital, and now he has opened a software store professionally.

  Since the explosion of Bomi's Honor of Kings series before, Azhe has started to buy Bomi's stand-alone games to sell.

   Once you come and go, the shop gradually becomes richer.

  Azhe has now identified Bomi's brand. As long as Bomi develops the game, he must put all his savings on it.

  Under normal circumstances, there will be no mistakes. Over time, until now, Azheguang has made hundreds of thousands by selling game software, most of which are Tobomi's blessings.

  This time Bomi said that he would publish "Shan Hai Jing". A Zhe got in touch with Bomi early and bought 5000 sets of CDs in one go.

  According to the wholesale price given by Bomi, A Zhe directly spent 150,000 yuan on a CD for 30 yuan, which basically emptied all his savings over the past two years.

  Is his wife exclaiming that A Zhe is crazy?

  But only A Zhe knows that if there is a person in this world who will not let him down, then this person must be Boss Cao.

  Bomi's game has never let him down.

  Want to lose, how is it possible? !

  If it weren't for only 150,000 deposits, he could even push everything in.

  In the morning, as soon as he walked to the corner of the street, A Zhe's face showed a happy smile.

  As soon as he saw the long line of players at the door that couldn't be seen, Azhe knew that it was stable again this time.

  As soon as the store door was opened, players swarmed in like zombies.

  As soon as he entered the door, he rushed to the new goods sales area.

  "Boss, I want 3 sets of "Shan Hai Jing"."

   "I want a set of "Shan Hai Jing"!"

  The shop was immediately crowded with people, and A Zhe stood behind the cash register and raised his hand and shouted, “Don't worry, don't worry, you are all lined up, come one by one, I have a lot of inventory, sure enough!”

  Only one day later, Azhe's software store sold 1,000 sets of "Shan Hai Jing"

  Azhe counted the money until his hands were soft. At night, he sat alone in the shop and looked at the large amount of banknotes in the cash register. There was always a strange sense of unconfidence.

  "Awesome! Bomi is really amazing."

  Seriously, if it wasn't for fear of playing things, Azhe would really like to experience the charm of this game called "Shan Hai Jing", which can attract so many players.

  Zhang Zhuoxi is a freshman student. In order to purchase "Shan Hai Jing", he was lined up in front of the software store at 4 o'clock in the morning.

  When he first went to the software store, he silently murmured, "Grass! Are these people perverted?!"

  Because even if he thinks he came early enough, he is still not the first.

Not only is    not the first, there is even a team of at least 20 people ahead of him.

  Zhang Zhuoxi couldn't imagine at all, what kind of demons were possessed, these perverts could come so early.

  I wanted to change to another software store, but as soon as he was about to leave, his classmates sent him a text message—

  【Not used here in South Street, it is full of people. 】

  【Renmin Road is also full. 】

  Zhang Zhuoxi frowned, feeling very helpless.

  Since this is almost like this, other places are probably not much better.

  Looking back, many people came to him.

"Hey…"

  Zhang Zhuoxi sighed silently, what if the "Shan Hai Jing" could be downloaded directly online?

   But thinking about returning, Zhang Zhuoxi felt that this idea was too unrealistic.

  Some chess and card games are still possible, because they have a small package body, the smallest estimate is about a few megabytes, and it will be finished in a while.

  But this time—

  Just hearing about the size of the package in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is enough to scare away a bunch of players whose hard drives are not large enough, or prompt many players to re-purchase mobile hard drives.

  The package size of "Shan Hai Jing", the official data is—

  13G.

  Mom! !

  Although there were 512G hard drives in 2003, most people still use 75G computer hard drives. After installing windows and adding some small movies, the remaining capacity for games is not so rich.

  In order to play "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", Zhang Zhuoxi had to reluctantly delete some of the teacher's instructional videos after he returned. You must know that he has finally collected all the valuable materials from others.

Goodbye, ***, goodbye Maple Songdo, it's not that I don't like you, but because I have national sentiments, I have to support "Shan Hai Jing", which represents the peak of domestic games and the trend of Chinese game culture. The beginning of the world.

  For the sake of national justice, I can only apologize for leaving my hard drive temporarily.

  After lining up for more than 4 hours, Zhang Zhuoxi finally grabbed a game CD of "Shan Hai Jing".

  Actually, after going home and unpacking, Zhang Zhuoxi found out—

  It turns out that although "Shan Hai Jing" is a set, there are actually 5 CDs in the game box.

  A disc can't be finished.

  It can be imagined, how big should this product be after decompression? !

  This is also something that can't be helped. In fact, in the middle of the game's production, Deng Peiqiang reported this problem to Cao Yang.

  But Cao Yang's idea is to make it larger if the capacity is large, even if it reaches 40G, it doesn't matter.

  Because in 2003, it was not downloaded through the Internet, so there is no need to save data and packages for players. Is 13G big? In this era of games, it is considered large, but in 2004, the general hard disk capacity of domestic computers was also 75G. You can save a little bit and delete less important things. It is still possible.

  But in the future era when it needs to spend traffic, it will be the other way round. Because traffic is money, especially in the era of smart phones, a large number of players have been screened out if a package exceeds 200M.

  In short, although the "Shan Hai Jing" has been partially streamlined, it still has a size of 13 Gs. After all, the art resources in the game account for the bulk of it, and it cannot be reduced.

  After an hour or so of waiting, Zhang Zhuoxi finally completed the installation of the "Shan Hai Jing".

  As soon as he saw the remaining amount of his hard drive, Zhang Zhuoxi felt a heartache.

   "Shan Hai Jing ah Shan Hai Jing, I hope you will not let me down, but I gave you all the positions of the teachers."

  Zhang Zhuoxi, with an uneasy mood, double-clicked the mouse to start the game.

  An interface popped up, covering the entire screen.

   followed by the big Bomi company logo.

  BOMI

   Produced by Bomi Technology Co., Ltd.

  I hope you like it.

After the font disappeared, the screen plunged into darkness.

  After the screen turned black, a large line appeared in the center of the screen—

  The classics of mountains and seas.

  The font drifted away with the wind, and a scroll of ancient prose appeared:

  【Shan Hai Jing】

  【"Shanhaijing" is an ancient book of Chinese legends, which records many flying insects, birds and beasts, spirits, monsters, sacred beasts... herbal medicine, geography, etc.

  The magnificent imagination and the grand artistic conception are beyond the comparison of the latecomers.

  Many future generations have doubters, they don't see their appearances, they don't see them...

  But then...]

  As the picture turns, the lens rises, and a vast ocean appears.

  The night is silent and magnificent, while the waves are silent but turbulent.

  There are countless stars above her head, reflecting on the surface of the sea, shining with faint light.

  A huge wooden boat appeared in the camera, which was rowing far away with the waves.

   Tsk tsk.

  Seeing Zhang Zhuoxi here bit his lip.

  The picture alone is beautiful enough.

  At this level, I don't know how many masterpieces at home and abroad will be crushed.

   followed closely, and the camera advanced until it reached the deck.

   then became the first perspective.

  In front of Zhang Zhuoxi's eyes, stood a girl in white classical Chinese clothes.

  Her long hair is draped over her shoulders, her hands are folded on her chest, she looks dignified and elegant without losing the lively and playfulness of a young girl.

  Although there is still a gap between the image of the real person, and the number of faces is not many, the appearance of the girl is pretty good.

  She opened her mouth and said, "We are almost at [Lou Yidao]. We may encounter some unknown risks on the next voyage. Are you ready?"

  Zhang Zhuoxi smiled slightly.

bring it on.

  I have been preparing for a year!
