Almighty Game Designer Chapter 78: The choice of plot designer
Chen Mo updated another entry on "Azeroth Universe".
"Moonglade: This is one of the most unusual places on the entire continent of Kalimdor. The forest has not been corroded by demons, and still maintains its original purity and calm. It is the same as other places in Kalimdor. It is completely different. Moonglade is a place of peace. Those who endanger the forest and create disputes will be expelled by the druids. Therefore, Moonglade is often selected by the Alliance and the Horde as the venue for neutral meetings, and the tauren will also come here. Ask my fellow elves about the way of druids."
Not long after the entry was updated, many people left messages.
"Fuck, in the Lifetime series, Chen Mo unexpectedly updated an entry!"
"I forgot to mention the last one, sofa!"
"Every time we are sent away with dozens of words, Chen Mo, don't you learn those web writers who are getting more and more words!"
"Not enough to see at all!"
"Say, if you make enough money, then you are lazy and not update!"
"I will ask when you can make Azeroth! Don't use the card game "My name is MT" to send us away!"
"I want to send the blade, do you have any together!"
"+1 upstairs!"
"+2!"
Chen Mo smiled slightly, closed the interface, and hid his merit and fame deeply.
Open "Azeroth National Geographic" as usual to check for new posts.
"Huh? New doujin? Popularity is quite high."
Chen Mo noticed that a post was posted recently, and it has been liked by seven or eight pages, which seems to be very popular. The name of the post is "Fan Doujin: The Orphan of Orgrimmar".
Chen Mo clicked to open a post. Sure enough, this is a long serialized fan work. The protagonist is an orphan orc born in Orgrimmar. It mainly tells the story of his step-by-step growth, becoming a tribal warrior and experiencing adventures. .
Of course, the latter are all guessed by Chen Mo. At present, this fanwen has only written less than 20,000 words, and the story has not yet unfolded.
But Chen Mo can tell that the author's writing style is quite good. Generally speaking, when Chinese people write Western Fantasy, it is easy to go to two extremes, either not authentic or translated, but this fanwen has no such problem at all.
Moreover, the story structure is reasonable and the plot tension is good. You can see some foreshadowing for the future. The whole story frame should be very complete.
It’s no wonder that the popularity is so high, and the quality of this fan work has indeed crushed other "middle school student composition" level fan art.
"This is still a talent." Chen Mo said in surprise.
Actually, when Chen Mo just started to create "Azeroth Universe", he also had some of these ideas. Azeroth has too much content. He alone wants to make a VR version of "World of Warcraft". It might be several years, and just writing these task texts and plot dialogues can exhaust him to death.
Therefore, why Chen Mo wanted to make "Azeroth National Geographic" in advance? I hope that there will be a group of artists and authors who love this subject and have relatively strong abilities, and they can use it in the future.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to recruit people on your own, and it would take time and effort.
Just like the animation of "My name is MT" in the previous life, it also benefits from the NGA forum.
It's just that Chen Mo didn't expect that he would catch one so quickly.
Chen Mo checked the author’s Thunder game pass information, and he was also bound to his cell phone, and he found the cell phone number directly.
Chen Mo called the author.
After a short wait, someone over there picked up: "Hello, how are you?"
is a man, Chen Mo is slightly disappointed.
"Hello, I am Chen Mo, the designer of "My name is MT"."
was taken aback for a moment, and then surprised: "Huh? Chen Mo? Really? Are you really that Chen Mo? Are you a liar?"
Chen Mo is speechless: "I shouldn't be famous enough to be impersonated... I'm really Chen Mo, how do I call you?"
said to the other side: "Oh, my name is Zheng Hongxi, or you can call my pen name, Magic Light."
Chen Mo: "...It's hard to remember."
Zheng Hongxi: "..."
Chen Mo said: "Um, are you working now?"
Zheng Hongxi said: "No, I just resigned from my previous company. I am now at home and I have nothing to do. I just happen to be interested in the things on the'Azeroth Universe'. It’s an article of the same humanities."
Chen Mo said: "Well, are you interested in coming to the Imperial Capital?"
Zheng Hongxi asked: "Huh? Can I go to Thunder to entertain each other?"
Chen Mo said: "Well, I'm quite interested in your work. Let's go, which city are you in now?"
Zheng Hongxi said: "Uh, in the magic city."
Chen Mo said: "In this way, I will reimburse you for high-speed rail tickets and accommodation fees. Come to the imperial capital, let's talk in person. By the way, bring all your past works."
Zheng Hongxi said: "Okay! That's OK, I will tidy up, and I will be there the day after tomorrow!"
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, wait a moment, I will send you an address, then you can come directly."
hung up, Chen Mo sent the address of the experience store to Zheng Hongxi.
"If this buddy is suitable, then there is still a person who is proficient in numerical values."
After "My name is MT" went live, it has been able to make stable profits. Now Chen Mo has a certain amount of capital to make large-scale games.
However, Chen Mo's first goal for the time being is to further expand his player base. Only after more players can his first large-scale game go smoothly.
During this period of time~IndoMTL.com~Chen Mo had to recruit two more assistants, one for the plot and the other for the values.
Chen Mo can do it all by himself, of course, but it’s too time-consuming after all, and a lot of it is repetitive work, and it makes no sense to do it over and over.
At least until he recruits reliable plot designers and numerical designers, Chen Mo will not touch large games. Let’s not talk about it if you do it slowly. Busy leads to chaos and quality is not guaranteed.
In Chen Mo's view, Zheng Hongxi has a good foundation, and he has development potential if he cultivates a little bit.
Just then, the phone rang.
Chen Mo is speechless, what's the matter, the phone calls one after another these days, it doesn't make people feel safe.
Chen Mo answered the phone: "Hello?"
is a girl’s voice: "Hello, is this Mr. Chen Mo?"
Chen Mo: "Yes, who are you?"
Sister said: "I'm Han Lu, a reporter from Tianji.com's game channel. I want to arrange an interview for you. Do you have time?"
Chen Mo was taken aback: "Huh? Interview?"
Han Lu said, "Yes. Because our editor thinks that your game, "My name is MT", is very successful and very topical, so I want to interview you. It won't take up a lot of time, one or two Hours is enough, mainly to talk about some of your ideas when designing this game."
Chen Mo thought for a while: "Okay, you can."
Han Lu said: "Okay, do you have time tomorrow morning? I plan to go directly to your experience store."
Chen Mo said: "I have time."
Han Lu: "Okay, then tomorrow morning is tentatively scheduled. Let's see or leave."
hung up, Chen Mo looked dazed.
what, an interview? Brother is already such a man of cards now?
