Chapter 873 Environment Interaction Mechanism
39 lucky people were waiting nervously for Chen Mo's arrival in a large conference room at the Thunder Interactive Entertainment headquarters.
These people are fresh graduates who are considered excellent after layers of selection, and those judges believe that they are excellent in their ability are also graduates who are qualified to work in Thunder Interactive Entertainment after being screened by Chen Mo.
These people have different professions and different types of games they are good at making, but their faces are filled with excitement and joy.
How can it not be exciting to be able to join Thunder Interactive Entertainment as soon as you graduate, work with the best designers in China and even the world, and jointly develop game works that shock the world?
Many people are exchanging contact information, and some people have already met during the game design competition.
However, they have a final test.
Chen Mo will give a question personally, and this question will determine whether they can go further within Thunder Interactive Entertainment.
If the answer is not good, you may be assigned to some relatively marginalized R&D project teams. Only those who answer Chen Mo is particularly satisfied with are qualified to enter the most core and front-line R&D team.
Of course, these marginalized project teams are not necessarily bad, and they may even make more money.
In fact, almost every game of Thunder Interactive Entertainment is a fine game. If a fresh graduate is "unfortunately" assigned to a stable online game project team such as "Glory of Kings", "League of Legends" or "PUBG", it will be awesome. Maybe the project bonus alone can be enviable.
However, these fresh graduates were selected from the country after all, and the admission rate was lower than that of top2 universities. They came here to be the best designers, and they all considered themselves very high. With such an excellent opportunity, they must work hard to achieve.
After waiting for a while, Chen Mo pushed the door open and came in.
Everyone knew Chen Mo, so the entire conference room suddenly became silent. The graduates were all sitting upright and looking at the young man in front of them with some curiosity.
Well, I finally saw the living Chen Mo!
The real person seems to be younger than the photos.
And... there is no airs at all.
However, it seems that there is a very strong aura, or... a very strong confidence.
Chen Mo smiled and looked at the people sitting in the big conference room.
"Hello everyone. They all know me and know the purpose of my coming here, so I'm just talking about it."
"First of all, congratulations to everyone for successfully standing out through this game design competition and getting the opportunity to enter Thunder Interactive Entertainment. In the future, I hope everyone can keep their original intentions in mind and always maintain their enthusiasm and passion for the game industry. Let's work together to make better games for players."
"Although you have all got the opportunity to enter Thunder Interactive Entertainment, there is another last question next, which is my personal test for everyone."
"This topic is not difficult, but it is not easy to stand out. Everyone has a short time, only three hours."
"Write a system design draft in this conference room within three hours."
Chen Mo paused and continued: "The students who answered the best will get a very excellent opportunity to directly participate in my new project development."
As soon as the words were finished, many people's eyes were already shining.
Be able to directly participate in Chen Mo's new project!
This means that the next 3a masterpiece that shocked the world will have its own name on the final list of producers!
Obviously, this is a dream thing for newcomers. Because in order to ensure R&D efficiency, the R&D team of big companies and IPs has relatively fixed personnel, many companies first let newcomers practice on edge projects, accumulate certain experience, and be mature and reliable enough before they can be transferred to core projects.
And this time, everyone actually had the opportunity to directly participate in Chen Mo's new project?
Even if it’s just a soy sauce and a visit and study, it’s a blessing in my life!
Everyone looked at Chen Mo with anticipation, wondering what kind of questions he would ask.
Chen Mo looked at the time and asked, "How many people here have played "Dark Souls"?"
Almost everyone raised their hands.
Chen Mo nodded and asked again: "How many people have passed the level?"
This time, less than a quarter of people were left to raise their hands.
Seeing those who had not been connected, Chen Mo waved his hand with a smile: "It's okay, this will not affect my judgment of everyone. The designer is not a professional player. Just understand the game mechanism and understand it thoroughly. If you really don't adapt, there is no need to force yourself to be abused. Well, this is just a small episode. Everyone knows that "Dark Souls" is made with Pangu engine, right?"
Everyone nodded.
Chen Mo: "Do you think the combat system of "Dark Souls" is good enough? Is there more room for improvement?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Is there, or not?
A large part of the reason why "Dark Souls" can win the game of the year is due to the extra points from the combat system, and this combat system even directly affected a large number of 3a masterpieces later, and even produced a new term called "soul combat". If you want to find fault with such a classic combat system, you have to consider how much you weigh?
However, if you answer this system is perfect? Chen Mo will definitely not be satisfied.
Seeing that no one dared to say it, Chen Mo smiled: "Okay, I'll answer for you. The combat system of "Dark Souls" is special enough and very perfect. For this game, this combat system has basically been discovered to the extreme."
He paused: "But... this does not mean that there is no room for improvement in soul combat. In another type of game, this combat system can be better."
“I mean, environmental interaction mechanism.”
Chen Mo saw that most people were confused and explained: "In the dark soul, everyone should have used terrain killing a lot, right? For example, Brother Dao can seduce him and let him jump off the cliff by himself. This is actually a very realistic environmental interaction mechanism."
"That is, your fighting behavior interacts with the environment, resulting in some beneficial or harmful consequences for yourself. The black soul acquiesced to this method, because 'falling' is what happens in real battles."
"This environmental interaction mechanism will make the battles in the game appear more realistic and make the winning methods more diverse."
"Yes, we encourage players to use multiple means to win, which is what many people call "the mean foreigner". Players like this design and will use their intelligence at this time."
“And this time the topic is:”
