Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 798 is so cool

Chapter 798 is so cool

  797

During the time when Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core was released, Mickford seemed to suddenly quiet down.

Maybe they also realize that competing with top-level works like Final Fantasy 7 is not worth the gain. Instead of trying to compete for the market with Final Fantasy 7 Core Crisis during this period, it is better to wait for its popularity to gradually decline and then pursue the victory.

However, it is obvious that Mickford’s thinking is still too simple.

 Since Zhuyouxing has planned to confront Mickford head-on from the beginning, top masterpieces will never stop.

 Then the players will already have their most anticipated work released.

 At the end of 2008, some game works were also released one after another, but none were as influential as Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core.

 Then the time came to 2009.

And even in 2009, the popularity of Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core has still been maintained to a certain extent. This game is completely out of the circle, and even people who have no interest in video games are beginning to want to take the initiative to get in touch with it. .

But it was just contact. They just wanted to know the story of Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core, but they had no intention of playing the game.

 This includes Davidson.

  He usually likes to read books, and naturally he likes touching or exciting stories.

 So when Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core was released, he immediately went to the video website to watch the story process of Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core for free, and stopped paying attention with regret and satisfaction.

And now he is gradually beginning to develop a fondness for video games.

Recently, the money he invested in Candy Fun has gradually increased.

However, this increase is only relative.

 In the past, he would spend dozens of cents to complete a perfect pass, which would only cost him a dozen dollars a week at most.

 As for now, he is willing to spend double the money every week, which is about thirty US dollars, in order to complete the level perfectly.

Even so, it is still barely acceptable for the general consumption capacity of American people.

 The monthly consumption is only more than one hundred US dollars, which is a lot less money than going out for a drink or meeting someone to play cards.

And the high ranking and high scores he obtains in the game will be shared with the people around him.

 His ranking is always at the top of those around him, which makes him very proud.

 As he became more interested in video games, he also began to actively pay attention to some game-related news.

 During this period, he also bought some stocks related to video game companies, and the income was not bad. It just offset his daily consumption of video games, which was almost equivalent to playing games for free.

 This morning, he drove to the warehouse where he worked as usual.

 After completing his daily routine of counting and confirming, he returned to his office and took out his mobile phone.

 Normally, he is more accustomed to watching some social news and so on.

And now he has a new news category, which is news related to video games.

He was flipping through his cell phone, looking at recent news about games.

 After playing Candy Blast for such a long time, this game could no longer satisfy him, and he began to slowly want to try more brand-new games.

 His mobile phone now has games such as Angry Birds and Tetris, which are quite good to play occasionally.

 While he was checking the latest game news, a game news appeared in his sight.

The latest work produced under the personal supervision of the CEO of Youxing Electronic Entertainment: "Assassin's Creed" is about to be released. This will be a new exploration of the industrialization of games. In this game, you can experience ancient history from the Crusades. Personally experience that era that was a bit cruel and ruthless, and have the opportunity to personally end those people who did all kinds of evil in that era, and give that era a peaceful and beautiful life.

Crusades?

 Davidson is quite familiar with this term.

Having been accustomed to reading books in the past, he has covered a wide range of topics.

 From religion, history, humanities, science and technology, he has been exposed to all these.

 Among them, he reads the most history-related books.

 He ​​may not have heard of the Eastern saying that history can be used to judge people, but he has a similar idea in his mind and believes that there is always something useful that can be learned from history.

 The Crusades are a story that has been described a lot in history.

 It’s just that there are quite few cultural works related to this period of history.

 Because this era has somewhat of a European and American dark history feel in the past, and because the history of other periods has more magnificent content, the Crusades really have no characteristics in comparison.

“Become an assassin who upholds justice, and be able to fight bravely against the enemy Templars, knocking all injustice to the ground.”

This comment is what interests Davidson the most.

Then he saw that the game was overseen by the same Yuxing Electronics Entertainment boss who had previously created Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core.

 So in terms of storytelling, this Assassin’s Creed shouldn’t be too worrying.

 Out of curiosity, Davidson began searching the Internet for information related to Assassin's Creed.

It is not difficult to search for these information. Assassin's Creed is about to be released recently, which happens to be the time when there is the most publicity.

 Davidson easily found the promotional trailer for this game on the Internet.

 Before this, he had never been formally exposed to this kind of pure console video game.

He played Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core on the Internet and didn't play it at all. He sighed at the game graphics, but the original story background of Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core deviated too much from reality, and he didn't take it too seriously. , I just think the picture is good.

 But when he clicked on the release trailer of Assassin's Creed, he had a trance-like feeling.

This is...a real person, right?

 He was a little unsure.

 In the trailer, the special effects were deliberately made slightly blurry, giving it the feeling of being recorded by an old-fashioned camera.

This also greatly reduces the sense of inconsistency in the CG, as if it were performed by real people.

Of course, if you are a core game player, they can easily identify whether it is a CG animation of the game or a live performance. There is still a slight difference.

 But for Davidson, he couldn't see it at all.

If it were a fictional fantasy story, it would be easy to identify, but this is a historical story that actually happened, and it is almost fake.

In an empty square, a prisoner was pressed on the guillotine, and a soldier in armor was reading loudly the crime the man had committed.

On the top of a bell tower not far away, a man in white clothes and a hood stood on top and watched everything quietly.

Then, with the sound of bells, and as the big clock continued to swing, the man in white disappeared instantly.

 Then, there is a classic scene in Assassin’s Creed 1CG.

The man in white easily eliminated those who blocked him in the crowd. Everything was so smooth. Finally, he came to the soldier who just read out the crime, jumped up high, and a telescopic dagger popped out from his wrist. , and then thrust it into the soldier's throat.

After all this was completed, the man in white quietly disappeared into the crowd and left here.

 Everything is so smooth and natural.

 And everything is so cool!
