The mont Chen Mo entered the venue, he heard soone call out to him.
It was Qiu Hengyang. Chen Mo walked towards him to introduce himself, Youre here too?
Qiu Hengyang nodded, Yeah, I was going to let you know, but it seems that weve ran into one another. Ive seen the news the past few days, too. Youve really done it, youve managed to generate a huge news topic through a mobile ga.
Chen Mo laughed, What do you an a huge news topic. I just thought itd be a good idea to make a ga for the players to fidget with since the conventions were usually quite boring. Anyways, its my first ti here, so itd be great if you could introduce to others.
Qiu Hengyang nodded, Of course, follow .
The two walked as they chatted.
Chen Mo asked, Heard your new ga did pretty well, youre A-grade now too?
Qiu Hengyang nodded, Yeah, but my move to B to A-grade took four to five years, unlike you who managed that in a year. Your year has been quite insane huh, how many gas have you made? Warcraft, Wulin, Onmyoji, Anipop I doubt there are many others in the industry who could manage four gas like you did.
Chen Mo tried to explain himself, I started working on Warcraft since October last year, and that took a bit more than half a year, so dont count that in. And among those gas, only Warcraft was the more notable one, the others were more like side projects.
Qiu Hengyang laughed, Either way, youve been pretty quick on your feet, and the main point is that the gas were quite well received.
The two of them walked as they chatted, towards the venue.
The main events for today and tomorrow during the day are networking events and talks, most of the talks have been organised by the Ga Committee, explained Qiu Hengyang.
Chen Mo asked, Are you doing a talk?
Qiu Hengyang shook his head, ? Im still lacking a lot of experience. Usually only S-grade videoga designers are invited to those talks, and usually have a few VR gas behind them.
Of course you could give a talk about more classic gas. You could probably give a talk yourself based on your results in the mobile industry this year, but I think that because you arent an official committee mber yet, they didnt organise one because they dont know you too well.
I dont really want to give one anyways, said Chen Mo.
Qiu Hengyang laughed, Its not bad to give a talk. You can only have so much inspiration alone, its when you interact with others that you gain more inspiration.
Which talk do you want to join?
Chen Mo discovered that there were many different talks. There were over ten talks a day, each two hours on average. He had to decide which ones he wanted to attend as there were a few happening at the sa ti.
And if they didnt want to listen to talks or presentations, they could join networking events. These networking events are started by designers themselves, and the designers could pick and join events that had other similar video ga designers.
Chen Mo gave it so thought, I think Id like to listen to a presentation.
Chen Mo didnt want to argue with other video ga designers at networking events, which was why he chose to listen to talks.
There were three different talks going on, The use of lightrays and scenery in levels, Casual gas design concepts and experience exchange, and How to make a high quality VR FPS ga.
Qiu Hengyang asked, Do you want to go to the casual ga one?
Chen Mo was speechless, Whats the point in that, Ill tell you anything you want to know.
Qiu Hengyang laughed, Thats true, its probably a bit insulting to listen to others talk about casual gas with you right by my side. You made gas like Plants vs Zombies and Anipop that sit at the top of the casual gas leaderboards after all.
How about VR FPS gas? suggested Chen Mo.
Qiu Hengyang nodded, Sure. We cant make VR gas now, but well have to do it eventually. Its probably good for us to get into the know-how now.
There were quite a few attendees, and most of them were designers above B-grade, all well dressed and sat properly.
Most of the front row seats were already taken, so the two of them sat sowhere in the back.
The speaker was an S-grade videoga designer from Zen Entertainnt, Ran He. His ga, Heavy Assault, was one of the best VR FPS gas in China, and was rated very highly within the Chinese video ga industry.
Im happy to be able to share so things Ive learnt during the developnt of Heavy Assault at this wonderful venue.
I think we are still a bit behind in terms of design in VR FPS gas compared to the West, which is why I decided on an experience exchange, and I hope everyone would be able to gain sothing from this.
I should start off by saying, FPS gas are hard to get into, and even more so for a VR FPS ga. Because its in VR, we need to recreate a realistic environnt for warfare, and if that setting wasnt well done, the ga would feel tacky and uninteresting. Compared to FPS gas from overseas, Chinese FPS gas have no competitive advantage.
In this talk, I hope to go over how to make a high quality VR ga starting from three main points, Environnt, Weapons, and Playstyle.
First, in terms of the Environnt, we must choose sowhere that suits the gaplay and the story as it will affect how the ga will play and directly impact on how the players will feel
Ran Hes talk was straightforward and fluent, and easy to understand. However, Chen Mo could tell that he wasnt giving out the most important parts of his design.
This way, the designers could learn a thing or two from the talk, but couldnt take the core of his success and turn it around to threaten Ran He.
Ran He spoke eloquently for nearly two hours, ending with a few questions from the audience. Everybody clapped when the talk ended.
Qiu Hengyang clapped as he asked Chen Mo, How was it, did you learn anything?
Yeah, sothing like that. Its definitely better than the casual ga talk, said Chen Mo.
Qiu Hengyang laughed, Its about ti for lunch, lets go grab sothing to eat.
There was a buffet laid out for any of the video ga designers who attended. Chen Mo and Qiu Hengyang grabbed so food before sitting down at a table beside a window.
As he sat down, soone called out to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo?
Chen Mo raised his head to find Saury.
They t in the video ga convention in Magic City, how did they et at the awards ceremony again?
Saury skipped the formalities and sat down next to the two of them.
Isnt this even just for videoga designers? Chen Mo wondered.
Saury nodded, Yeah.
How did you enter, there isnt a song and dance event during the award ceremony right?
Saury let out a stifled laugh, Pfft, no.
Qiu Hengyang looked at Chen Mo before looking back at Saury, Chen Mo, did you make a mistake? Shes a videoga designer, one thats better than the both of us.
