Video Game Designer - Chapter 504

This is just an initial idea, including the establishment of the game platform, the share of each party’s capital injection, and the main goals. These things need to be discussed for a long time.

But both Yves and Wilson think this aspect is very feasible.

Whether it is to control the market share of the future industry, or the pursuit of benefits.

You know that once EA wanted to acquire the other party when the early steam platform was not so powerful, but the other party did not agree. Until today, the platform has become a behemoth.

But at the same time, the huge benefits have caused the steam platform to begin to face endless challenges.

Among them, CDG’s GOG platform and epic platform are the main competitors, and the rotten oranges are more different from their own games, or the games released by their own agents.

The GOG platform and epic platform are mainly for the sale of digital games, not just their own games.

More and more game manufacturers have begun to try to get rid of the independent platform of the steam platform, the most representative of which are EA and Activision Blizzard.

Relying on classic series such as battlefield, Sims and Call of Duty, it successfully got rid of the steam platform and made it vivid and colorful.

At the same time, Bethesda, which recently developed the ancient scrolls and radiation waste soil series, has also announced that the next series of radiation will not land on the steam platform.

In addition, a large number of small and medium-sized manufacturers and independent game manufacturers have chosen to leave the steam platform and switch to the platforms of epic and GOG.

Because compared to the previous steam platform, more niche games can be displayed in front of countless players, thereby driving game sales.

But nowadays, the steam platform has changed a little bit. It is not like that there are good independent game steam platforms recommended to players before, but the reverse is what the game is like. Steam platforms are like players.

In addition to the generous settlement fee given by GOG and epic itself, more and more game manufacturers do not regard the steam platform as the first choice as before.

“But compared to the steam platform, our disadvantage is very large. The first problem we have to face is the experience that the platform brings to players.” Chu He raised a very real problem.

There are reasons for the success of the steam platform. The huge game library is one point, but it is more about the platform experience for players and the stickiness of the platform.

Even many people are not playing games, they are playing platforms.

Badges, levels, and personal homepage displays are the main core of their steam platform.

Even many players will not play games.

This is the Hi plus one player who likes to hear it. In their words, it is obviously that I have already spent money to buy the game, why should I spend time playing this game again.

Just like some people buy stamps and antiques, they are collection games.

At this point, neither Ubisoft’s or EA’s rotten oranges are doing well in terms of user experience.

Similarly, Tianhe’s own game platform has not achieved the same excellent experience as the steam platform.

Wilson, who was next to him, didn’t say a word for a long time, just like a boring person.

After all, for EA, whether or not to withdraw from the steam platform has nothing to do with them. Its games have almost completely separated from the steam platform, including the Sims series, the fifa series, and the Need for Speed ​​series have all said goodbye to the steam platform. Too.

What really needs to be considered is Tianhe Network and Ubisoft. After all, their games are sold on the steam platform, and after several previous masterpieces withdrew from the steam platform, the sales were not satisfactory, even on the word of mouth. .

This makes people hesitate.

“Introduce our platform, a separate data storage, and open our self-operated platform at the same time, the game gives players extra price concessions to attract players into it, boil frog in warm water.” Chuhe said.

This method is a bit similar to the domestic penguin’s wegame.

Very simple, that is, in the early stage of the platform’s promotion, use discounts to attract players.

On the steam platform, we do not quit, we still sell games, the service should be given to the players; unlike other games, we do not have any monopoly, but on the price, our platform pays for the players to get discounts.

We bought 198 yuan on the steam platform and 198 yuan on our own platform, but the platform paid you 30 yuan for the subsidy.

“Games that are not logged in to the steam platform at the same time, such as League of Legends and Dota2, can log in to the platform, and the accounts under the Tianhe Network can communicate with each other.” Chu He said and then looked at Eve and Wilson.

Understanding the meaning of Chu He’s subtext, Wilson immediately responded: “Account data under EA can also be communicated.”

Yves next to him also agreed.

“Exiting the steam platform directly is not a good choice for us at present, especially when the chaotic battles are launched in third-party platforms such as epic.” Wilson also expressed his views.

Even though EA does not have a game on the steam platform, he still speaks his own words.

As several games announced to leave the steam platform for epic monopoly, more and more players expressed negative comments on epic and game manufacturers.

“The interests of game manufacturers should not affect the player’s gaming experience, so as to ensure their biggest reputation.” Chu He also gave his own opinion.

There is no problem in creating an independent game platform, but if it is an exclusive, it is not possible at least now.

No matter what your starting point is~www.mtlnovel.com~ but there are epic in front to attract firepower, we have to be much more convenient and relaxed. Yves smiled.

After briefly talking about the game platform, Yves told Wilson that they will need to conduct an internal company meeting.

For example, the specific allocation of funds and shares needs to be detailed.

Chu River’s words are not so troublesome, as long as you decide to do it, basically what you vote in the meeting is just a process.

In the next few days, Yves stayed in Redwood City, and Chuhe did not return to Jinling. They still need to discuss this matter.

In the domestic game market that Chuhe did not pay attention to, the completion and launch of the two games also allowed domestic players to start active discussions with industry groups.

This limited subject matter, limited market, and such a large investment can really recover costs?

Countless industry insiders have expressed doubts in their hearts.
