“And for IVY, the primary revenue still cos from gas.” Finn Lewis added, actually with these words, he was just trying to highlight a point: even though WY’s market valuation isn’t low now, all of it is built on the foundation of its stock price. If the main source of i,VY’s inco, that is, the gaming market, shrinks significantly, do you think that WY’s stock price will remain the sa as now?
“Moreover, I have another vital technology.” Finn saw Yuri Johnson trying to say sothing and quickly spoke up again.
“What technology?” Yuri Johnson unconsciously asked a question, then he realized that this probably was the true reason that Finn ca here, right?
“It’s simple, a technology that can allow at least over two hundred thousand players to play the ga on the sa server, and the data flow won’t lag.” Finn explained with a smile.
Finn’s statent surprised Yuri Johnson. A server that can accommodate two hundred thousand players? What kind of concept is that? As you know, the most critical factor for online gas is the player count! Just like Top Three, although it has many servers, not many servers are popular. Players usually flock to the most popular servers, they don’t mind queuing up! Because the more popular the server, the more fun it is for the players!
Fighting against other people is infinitely fun! Multiplayer online gas are only interesting when you play with other players! So, how many players can mainstream servers accommodate now? Like the servers for “Top Three”, the theoretical upper limit is roughly just 20,000. To be precise, almost 10,000 players is the limit, exceeding that number ans waiting in line. They can’t even support 15,000 players. 200,000, can you imagine that? Even if the ga itself is crappy, the ga won’t be too bad. Being in the gaming business, Yuri Johnson naturally understood this point! And what’s more, Finn also assured that, even with so many players, the ga won’t lag!
“Mr. Lewis, I wonder how you can prove the technology you hold?” Yuri Johnson maintained his cool deanor. He naturally knew very well how influential these technologies could be in certain industries, but he couldn’t just simply take Finn’s words for granted, he needed to see it before he could make a decision.
The gaming industry is currently entering a relatively chaotic period, whether dostically or abroad, it’s the sa. Due to the advancent in hardware technology and the rise of mobile and other miniature digital devices, the number of traditional online gars is declining. Moreover, gas now seem to be moving towards web-based and simplified developnt. Whether traditional online gas still have a market or not, nobody can say for sure at this point.
W’s market share in this area is also shrinking, when a gaming company’s largest market share begins to shrink, then the company isn’t far from collapsing. However, Yuri Johnson wasn’t content with their present achievents, so he kept holding on.
Naturally, Finn wouldn’t mind showing him. He had already extracted out the iVision ga engine over at Olivia Thatcher’s, and had also made modifications as needed by Finn.
“Julia Parker.” Finn nodded to Julia Parker standing behind him, then turned to Yuri Johnson again: “Mr. Johnson, do you have any projection equipnt in this eting room?”
“Of course.” This kind of equipnt is standard in a eting room, it’s no exception here. Yuri Johnson imdiately ordered secretary to prepare it, and Finn nodded, rely sitting quietly and watching Julia and the secretary bustle around.
While watching them hustle, Finn started to speak, “I suppose Mr. Johnson must know that there are many player-created videos in the ga, “Top Three”. You must have seen them.”
Yuri Johnson nodded, indeed he had seen so of those videos. Strictly speaking, the videos for “Top Three” were already quite good. Many players DIY and collaborate with their clan mbers, use ga characters, and the ga’s built-in actions to make individual videos. These videos, just like films, have complete storylines.
Finn still rembered the one he saw, a video imitating the “Assassin Alliance” in Floral Village. Even though the na is the sa, the content and plot had been greatly changed. They were able to create dozens of minutes of video content, which was both interesting and aningful. Back then, he had said to his clan mbers, “These people are talents.” Especially one part where two spectres (the ga’s assassin class) casted big spells against each other while standing on the water, and the whole PK scene, was simply too aweso.
He didn’t know who was controlling the two spectres, but a few spectres in his clan tried to recreate the scene and all failed. Either they directly failed to stand on the water or they were unable to smoothly trigger the skills.
“Yeah, I have seen so.”
“This one is a video, “Assassin Alliance”, that I rendered using my ga engine.” Finn said with a smile, he had seen the video already. To be honest, after watching it, it blew his mind. If it weren’t for the sowhat rigid movents of the characters and so plot holes, as well as the short duration of just over fifty minutes, he would have thought he was watching a movie from Floral Village.
A video? Yuri Johnson was slightly stunned, then he beca puzzled. What was the relationship between Finn rendering a video and the ga engine? However, the projection equipnt was quickly turned on, then Julia connected her laptop to the projection equipnt in the office, and directly started a video software.
As the music sounded and a quaint and lifelike little mountain village appeared in front of Yuri Johnson, he couldn’t help but feel surprised. He recognized the layout of this small village; it was a small village inside the Southern Province map of “Top Three”, it didn’t have many NPCs.
However, about this image… Yuri Johnson didn’t know how to even begin comnting. Those wooden houses, the trees, and ground, looked exactly like sothing captured by film caras, did all of this actually ca out of software rendering?
When the main character appeared on the screen, he was being beaten up by a group of people on the ground. Everyone knows what ga characters look like, but when Yuri Johnson saw the ga character at this mont, his jaw dropped in surprise. At this mont, unless you stared at it intently, it would be very hard for you to tell that this was achieved with technology!
Seeing this scene, Finn felt quite nostalgic. When he first exchanged for the iVision ga engine, he had specifically asked Zero if its description was truthful, then Zero told Finn that it was no less than that. When Olivia first made the video, even Finn was astonished.. This level of rendering, damn, it could directly be used to create special effects in Floral Village movies!
