Although Lin Wan cannot describe the difference between web games and client games particularly accurately, he can generally understand the problems with this approach.
Client games and web games are two completely different game types.
Their traditional gameplay, core, and target player groups are completely different.
If anyone thinks that web games can be easily converted to PC games, they are definitely newbies who know nothing about games.
Transplantation can only be done from the top down, such as client games being transplanted to web games, and web games being transplanted to mobile games.
And it also needs to be supported by the characteristics of the game itself.
If it were the other way around, such as porting a client game from a web game, there would be too many things to change, and the difficulty would be basically the same as developing a new game from scratch.
However, Yangyang Games has decided to develop the "Enhanced Edition of Hot-Blooded War Song", and even the design draft has been finalized. This is President Pei's decision, and it must not be changed randomly.
In this way, if you want to spend so much budget, making a micro client becomes the only solution.
But as Wang Xiaobin said, there are huge risks in doing micro-end.
With micro-clients, players need to download fewer resources than PC games, and the graphics are better than web games. It seems to be a solution that has the best of both worlds;
But think about it from another perspective. , it is another solution that is unpalatable to both sides.
For client game players, its picture quality is not as good as regular client games;
For web game players, they have to download a micro-client and cannot play immediately. Very troublesome.
It is very likely that players on both sides will not like it, and it will be completely ruined.
Everyone turned their attention to Lin Wan again.
She, the director, still has to make the decision on this matter.
Lin Wan was a little panicked.
In the past, he was at Tenda. Although he was responsible for some work, he had never made such a key decision.
You must know that making this decision will most likely directly affect everyone’s work and millions of dollars in the next few months.
It goes without saying;
If it fails, everyone’s work will be in vain, and all the money will be wasted.
This kind of heavy burden made Lin Wan feel very stressed.
She subconsciously wanted to ask Mr. Pei for advice.
But after thinking about it for a while, I thought it wouldn’t work.
Mr. Pei sent himself here to take charge of Yangyang Games because he had high hopes for himself!
If you ask Mr. Pei for advice on everything, wouldn’t it become a sounding board? That would completely betray Mr. Pei's good intentions.
Lin Wan fell into deep thought.
"If it were Mr. Pei, what would he do at this time?"
"Huh, calm down. Mr. Pei often makes some unexpected decisions, but if you think about it carefully, But it’s reasonable.”
“Mr. Pei.Will the budget be cut? Absolutely not. ”
“Does Mr. Pei care whether players accept micro-clients? It doesn't seem like it will either. ”
“Mr. Pei should make the choice for the players, regardless of whether the players accept it initially. "
"So...it's clear what President Pei will do. "
After thinking about it for a moment, Lin Wan said decisively: "Do micro-end. The design content remains unchanged, but the art resources are fully upgraded from 2D to 3D. ”
Lin Wan’s expression is quite confident.
Her confidence does not come from herself, but from her accurate speculation on Mr. Pei’s behavioral intentions.
< p>This is the self-cultivation of a Tengda employee!...
...
After the meeting,
Ye Zhizhou returned. Go to the work station and start modifying the budget and demand table.
Although it is a good thing to directly double the budget, it is still very troublesome for Ye Zhizhou to change various demand tables.
Fortunately, this can be regarded as a kind of happy trouble.
While I was busy, the screen of my phone turned on. It was a message from Mr. Pei.
"How is the progress?" ? ”
Ye Zhizhou perked up, great, Mr. Pei took the initiative to ask!
Ye Zhizhou was still a little worried about Lin Wan’s decision.
Budget The two decisions of doubling the price and changing the web game to a micro-client game were a bit too risky. Without Mr. Pei’s nod, Ye Zhizhou still felt guilty.
But he couldn’t report this matter to Mr. Pei, as that would make him appear guilty. I was making a small report.
It would be best if Mr. Pei took the initiative to ask.
Ye Zhizhou quickly explained the results of the meeting, mainly about the budget and micro-end. Question.
He thought that if Mr. Pei had any questions about this matter, he would answer it himself.
Two minutes later, Mr. Pei replied. >"Very good, just do this. "
"If there are any issues that cannot be decided in the future, just listen to Director Lin. ”
Mr. Pei didn’t have any problems and fully agreed with Director Lin’s decision!
Ye Zhizhou couldn’t help but sigh. Sure enough, the design director who airborne from Tenda would have gained a reputation in vain.
In fact, Ye Zhizhou was a little suspicious of Lin Wan during the meeting.
After all, Lin Wan did not raise any questions about the details of the design draft and made the decision directly. Such a big change made Ye Zhizhou feel rather hasty.
But now, with Mr. Pei's confirmation, all doubts about Mr. Pei's decision have disappeared. , can it be wrong?
And indeed, as Director Lin said, Mr. Pei approved the 5 million budget without hesitation, and did not even make such a risky decision as micro-end.
It seems that Director Lin’s interpretation of Mr. Pei is indeed better.We are going several levels higher!
In this way, Mr. Pei, who is busy with work, should be able to rest assured about Yangyang Games, right?
……
……
Pei Qian put down his phone and was in a good mood.
Lin Wan’s performance was even better than he expected!
Pei Qian was mainly worried that Lin Wan would be tied up in the Yangyang game and would not dare to do anything, and would be sidelined and become a mere commander.
In this case, Lin Wan's frustration will not be strong enough when the time comes, and he may pass the blame to others, and will not be able to go back and inherit the family property willingly.
But now it seems that Lin Wan has done a good job in changing his role!
It actually coincided with what Pei Qian wanted.
Not only did I spend more money, but I also changed the originally stable web game into a micro-client.
Actually, Pei Qian knows about micro-clients, but he also knows that this model has never become the mainstream model for web games.
Not now and not in the future.
It is true that some web games have micro-clients, but this is just the icing on the cake, and the micro-clients of most games are controlled within 50M, and there are no larger ones.
Like what Yangyang Games is doing now, on the one hand, it will increase the computer configuration requirements for this game, and on the other hand, the downloaded client will become larger, at least two to three hundred megabytes.
Many people who use company office computers or classic machines to play web games may be directly persuaded to quit!
To put it bluntly, this game is currently unable to please both PC game players and web game players. It doesn’t touch both ends, and it also costs more money. It’s perfect!
For such a web game, if five million is spent in the early stage to produce it, and two to three million will be spent on publicity later depending on the situation, the development progress should be faster than that of "Return to the Shore".
It will be possible to go online more than a month in advance and determine the loss in advance, which is simply a blessing!
