Chapter 308: "Endless Fantasy Legend"
Chapter 308 "The Legend of Endless Fantasy"
It's just that Wei Chengjie knew it in his heart, but didn't say anything.
After all, he knew very well who could save Nitian. There is no need to hesitate on which side to sit on while spanking the worker.
“Then there’s one last question.
“Mr. Li, Mr. Gu, what is the name of our game?
“Or just think of a random code name first, and then think about it slowly.”
Lilith obviously didn’t like code names, she waved her hand: “It’s just a name, I’ll think of one for you right now!
“Well...let’s call it “Legend of Infinity Fantasy”!
“Translated to..."The Legend of Endless Fantasy"!
“How about it? Isn’t this a good name?”
Wei Chengjie almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Is this a good name?
Mr. Li, aren't you too tight?
From this name, Wei Chengjie seems to be able to see the shadow of many games with similar themes. No way, whether it's Legend, Infinity or Fantasy, these three words are too common in the names of similar games.
XX legend, XX fantasy, or endless XX are full of the sense of déjà vu.
Of course, if you want to form a detailed design draft, you still need a lot of complete content.
Now it has actually become a parallel state of two projects. Zhou Yang will continue to be responsible for the development of subsequent versions of "Shadow World". Since the big framework of this game has been finalized, the design and development work required is relatively small. So about a third of the original development team stayed on the project.
Lilith nodded with satisfaction: "Well, go ahead! Complete the concept draft within three days and show it to me and Mr. Gu!"
…
With the finalization of new projects, Nitiantian’s corporate structure has gradually changed.
But those things are left to Wei Chengjie to worry about.
…
Lilith also has something to say, the heaven does not support idlers, everyone must make full use of it! I really don’t believe it. With so many people in the company, is there no one who can help me collect negative emotions smoothly?
Originally, the entire company of Nitiantian Games was responsible for one project, so there was no obvious division of personnel.
Even so, there are still not enough manpower.
The plan for the new game was finalized so quickly.
So Wei Chengjie had no choice but to swallow his words back in his stomach and nodded: "What a good name! Mr. Li, I'm going to write the design plan first."
Wei Chengjie just wanted to persuade Mr. Li to think twice, but when he glanced at Mr. Gu, he seemed to have no objection to this.
And Mr. Li creatively stitched all three popular words together. Judging from the English name alone, it is already a bit overwhelming, and looking at the Chinese name, it feels like a low-quality web game is gaining popularity.
Wei Chengjie was responsible for "Endless Fantasy Legend". Because it was a new game and had to be started from scratch, two-thirds of the original development team was taken away, and most of them were the backbone.
For example, the game’s main character settings, monster design, level content, plot framework, etc., there are still many areas to be improved.
"Pfft!" Wei Chengjie almost spat out another mouthful of blood, but as a humble migrant worker, he could only nod his head: "Okay, Mr. Li, I'll do my best!"
Hence, Nitiantian Games will conduct a new round of recruitment in the near future to fill the staff vacancies in these two projects.
…
Two days later.
Wei Chengjie was sitting at his work station, pulling out his few hairs worriedly. At this time, on his computer screen, the design concept draft for "Endless Fantasy Legend" has been mostly completed.
The various detailed design details can be improved as you go.
But the progress of the design concept draft is going smoothly, which does not mean that the game is easy to make.
On the contrary, as the content of the design concept draft became more and more detailed, Wei Chengjie became more and more worried because the system of this game was visibly complicated to the naked eye!
As for recruitment, although the overall recruitment work can be controlled by Xiao Mingyu and human resources colleagues, Wei Chengjie is the person in charge of the project after all, and he still has to sit in during the final interview.
This also distracted his energy.
But there is also good news, that is, some old employees of Shengjing Group have contacted Wei Chengjie privately and want to change jobs.
Some of them are Wei Chengjie's original subordinates and were in the same project team when he was at Shengjing Group; some are Wei Chengjie who have been contacted through roundabout relationships, and most of them are employees of "Protoss World".
Obviously, the start and ending of "World of Protoss" caused the mentality of many employees to collapse.
Everyone is working hard to modify the game, but in the end, it is worse than "Shadow World" without changing anything. Who can withstand this!
Add to that the urban legend of outrageous bonuses, and it’s no wonder they want to jump ship.
For these people, Wei Chengjie also asked Gu Fan for instructions, and the answer he got was that they should be collected!
Originally, Wei Chengjie was a little worried whether President Gu would think that he was running a small group and wanted to fill Nitiantian with the old departments of Shengjing Group, which would have the effect of occupying the magpie's nest.
But it was obvious that Mr. Gu had no such worries at all and just left him open to receive it. Anyone who is sure to be capable does not need to avoid suspicion, just poach them all.
So Wei Chengjie was no longer polite and directly joined those who knew the basics. Those who are not familiar with the company will be interviewed according to the regular process, go through a probationary period, and then become a regular employee after passing the exam.
“Hmm? The work efficiency is quite high.”
Hearing a voice from behind him, Wei Chengjie turned around and saw Gu Fan strolling over at some point and looking at the design concept draft on his computer screen with great interest.
Wei Chengjie hurriedly said: "Mr. Gu, the concept draft should be completed as scheduled.
“It’s just...there are many functions in it, and it seems to be a bit troublesome to make with the current game engine.
“For example, flame burning and spreading effects, object gravity effects, prop gluing… these functions are performed using the existing engine, and the code basically needs to be rewritten.
“The development cycle is not sure how long it will take. It may be quite long.”
Gu Fan rubbed his chin and thought for a moment before saying: "Since the existing engine is not enough, why not try the latest Vientiane Editor? That function is obviously more powerful."
Wei Chengjie was shocked: "Huh? Mr. Gu, this is not good!"
Gu Fan didn't take it seriously: "It's no problem, right? After all, we have already used the Vientiane Editor to create a successful game, "Ascension"."
Wei Chengjie was a little confused: "But Mr. Gu, the game "Ascension" has its own uniqueness. Bugs such as model slippage and texture errors have become part of the gameplay.
"But the protagonist in "Endless Fantasy Legend" is a normal person and not insane, so there is no reason to see so many hallucinations, right?"
Gu Fan waved his hand: "Don't worry about this. After the great success of "Ascension", the official has been encouraged and has iterated several versions of Vientiane Editor. Most of the previous messy bugs have been fixed. part.
“Currently, many low-level bugs such as model wear and texture errors have been fixed.
“Furthermore, our testing team and development team are not just doing nothing, and these shallow bugs will not be too complicated to fix.
“The key is to use the power of the Vientiane Editor as much as possible to complete the unique system we designed faster.
“After all, in Nitian, time and construction deadlines are always the first priority. As for some innocuous small bugs, there is no need to fix them.”
