Almighty Game Designer Chapter 255: New experience store location

After sending away the father and daughter, Chen Mo returned to the experience store.

Nini's matter still touched him, mainly because he suddenly realized a problem that had been ignored before.

What is a game?

For a designer, games have multiple attributes.

For different groups of people, everyone sees the game differently.

It may be a work of art, a cultural product that combines many design and artistic concepts.

It may be a great way to entertain, and the best way to reduce stress after work.

It may be a career, e-sports, and constantly surpassing oneself.

It may be a "spiritual opium", a "scourge", a "funny", something that many people avoid.

Everyone knows that games can move people, give people happiness, and give people negative emotions.

Of course, the game may also empty your wallet, allowing game developers to make a lot of money.

But Chen Mo also realized that in the process of rushing to make the game non-stop, he seemed to have overlooked some of the most original and initial things, that is, the fun of the game itself.

In the process from entering the industry to the present, in the eyes of outsiders, Chen Mo went smoothly and made a lot of money in all games, but in fact, no one can see the hardship.

Since entering the industry, Chen Mo has been developing new games almost non-stop, basically guaranteeing the development of 3 to 4 new games every year, and there must be a masterpiece with an investment of over 100 million.

In addition, in order to be able to accumulate funds more quickly and allow himself to develop games faster than the speed of progress of the world's designers' game design concepts, Chen Mo did not lessen his krypton games.

I work almost every day.

Before game development, do market research, analyze player preferences, and plan game design plans; during the development process, coordinate everyone’s progress, and fully control all aspects of game content including gameplay, art, and music; before the game goes live, adopt Various methods of publicity and momentum; after the game is online, collect player feedback to modify, and then quickly enter the development of the next game.

It can be said that in the entire team, Chen Mo can replace any one person's role, but no one can replace Chen Mo's role.

Leave aside all other factors, at least in terms of diligence, Chen Mo should not lose to anyone in this world gaming circle. Lovely Sweetheart: Meet the high cold school grass

Of course, there are Chen Mo's own personality factors and certain external environmental factors.

Although Chen Mo has a lot of classic game ideas, in the gaming circle, ideas are not valuable.

Compared to the power of channels and capital, creativity is sometimes fragile.

So, Chen Mo had to walk cautiously before, because once many opportunities were missed, it would be difficult to seize them.

But after seeing Nini playing "Minecraft", Chen Mo suddenly realized something.

Thunder Interactive Entertainment is now an influential gaming company, and he himself is no longer the previously unknown newcomer designer.

He can slow down a little bit, and he doesn't have to count every step as accurately as before, every step is not to be missed.

Every player should be treated as a living person, not as cold data.

We should consider something other than making money.

……

The second floor of the experience store, Chen Mo's own studio.

Lin Xiao submitted a written material to Chen Mo: "The store manager, the renovation of the new store has been basically completed, and it is done in accordance with your previous plan. This is a detailed report."

Chen Mo reached out and took it: "Okay, it's hard work."

Lin Xiao asked: "Then, the store manager, when are we going to move in? If the date is confirmed, I will notify everyone."

Chen Mo thought for a while: "Next week, I can inform everyone now."

Lin Xiao nodded: "Okay."

After Lin Xiao left, Chen Mo began to look through the report materials.

The location of the new experience store was considered as early as November last year, that is, before the development of "Minecraft". During this period of time, Lin Xiao also traveled almost throughout the imperial capital and found many places. .

In the end, Chen Mo finalized a four-story office building.

The location is in the northeast of the Imperial Capital, between the third and fourth ring roads, just at the subway entrance. The floor of this office building is relatively low, mainly because there are historical sites along the line, and it is not allowed to build too high buildings, so this building only has four floors. Creation Elements of Wonderland

The entire building was originally under construction and was completed in March this year. Chen Mo was quite satisfied with the structure and location of this building, so he decided to buy it.

The price is 46,000 per square meter, with 4 floors totaling 6,400 square meters, for a total of 290 million. The price is a bit more expensive overall, but it has many benefits. First, the transportation is particularly convenient. Second, it is closer to Chen Mo's current experience store. Third, the entire area and number of floors are more in line with Chen Mo's requirements. I just decided to buy it.

After the construction was completed in March, I went to a special decoration company to design and renovate it. I slightly changed the structure of the building. Various decorations were arranged inside and outside the building.

Together with other messy expenses, as well as the cost of purchasing various equipment in the experience store, Chen Mo spent a total of more than 300 million yuan. Up to now, the decoration of the new experience store has been completed.

The structure of the entire experience store was planned by Chen Mo himself.

From the subway exit, walk for five minutes to the front entrance of the experience store. The lobby on the first floor is the front desk and rest area. There are many sofas for players to rest and chat, and there are special coffee machines and drinks.

The entrance of the lobby faces the elevators, and there are two elevators that can pass from one to four floors.

The passages on both sides connect the main usable area. The first floor is the PC gaming experience area. The layout is similar to that of Internet cafes~ IndoMTL.com~ The left and right sides of the lobby are two areas, and the total usable area is about 1200 square meters. , A total of 200 computers.

The second floor is the holographic projection viewing area and the mobile game experience area. There is no lobby on the second, third, and fourth floors, but there is a receptionist who is responsible for receiving players.

There is a large-scale holographic projection device and two small-scale holographic projection devices in the holographic projection viewing area, which can show scenes and pictures in the game through holographic projection.

However, in this world, this holographic projection device is not popular because it is extremely expensive and not very practical. Chen Mo bought it to consider preparing for future e-sports games.

In addition, there is a huge LED screen on the wall of the viewing area on the second floor. Like the screens used in concerts and e-sports competitions, it is also for players to watch.

In other areas, some are spectator seats and some are mobile game experience areas. In addition, beside each seat, there are mobile phones and tablets fixed with the seats for players to experience.

The third floor is the VR game experience area, with a total of 80 VR game pods. The experience price of VR games will be more expensive and there are corresponding time limits, but it is much cheaper than VR Internet cafes.
