After asking the phone, this was naturally a fake one, and Robert Pardo was relieved.

The opening date of the Carnival is the first two days of November. As November just entered, Mars Entertainment began preparing, renting venues and setting them up, all in the confidential process, in order to keep the carnival mysterious and bring the biggest surprise to players at the opening.

However, a certain degree of leakage is also necessary.

For example, some media have asked to evaluate games in advance. In fact, some game companies are already dissatisfied with the media sending out evaluation reports in advance, but they cannot find these media to evaluate them after the game is released. Players have bought them to play. What's the point of reviewing them again?

Moreover, those media with great influence also disdain for this after-sales review method.

However, some media are unwilling to see these media's evaluations that are unfavorable to them, which affects sales. For a while, the two are a little unpleasant.

This is a matter of the newly established World Electronic Games Association, which regulates the disputes in the industry. However, this dispute concerns the interests of major game companies and major game media. After discussing it several times, it can only be left alone.

In fact, Jester knew that this contradiction would not be resolved in a short period of time, unless in the future, information can be seamlessly ignored by the Internet and disseminated by time and place, then this contradiction can be completely resolved.

Now it is either the media that spends money on game reviews to make them better reviews of their games, or it is completely allowed to announce that their games are prohibited from reviewing them.

If the Internet is well transmitted in the future, it can completely reconcile all parties.

For example, when "Blood Source" was released, the new work made by the development team of this soul series attracted much attention. Before it was released, they handed the game to major game media, hoping that they would make reviews.

And how did the evaluation come out?

It's very simple, that is, on the day the game is released, the media can fully lift the ban on the outside.

This perfectly resolves the conflict between the two sides, but this is due to the strength of the network communication function in the future, which is completely impossible now. Although the United States has just completed the network communication optical cable across the east and west this year, it may take at least ten years to achieve the popularity of the network.

However, Jester didn't care much. He never worried about his game saying anything bad after reviewing the game media. In his impression, it seemed that only Pokemon taught the game to guess the general evaluation when he guessed it.

But afterwards it turned out that when "Game" evaluated this game, it made a huge omission, so that their hostile magazines seized this opportunity. A large mockery caused some damage to the authority of "Game".

The evaluation of "Fantasy Simulation War" is quite normal. "Game" gave a 36-point palace-level work, and other media also scored similarly. Although this game is excellent, it is only excellent. It does not once again give these people the shocking feeling when they played "Flame Emblem" for the first time.

It seems that this game is just a game that has changed the game background. On the sixteen-bit game console, the "Flame Emblem" that seems to be slightly rough now has been reset.

It's really because this game is too imaginative with the first part of "Flame Emblem".

Of course. Anyone who has played this game thinks that this is indeed the best srpg they have played since "The Emblem of Fire". Jester's ability to grasp this type of game has not decreased at all, but it has not decreased at all.

And "Age of Empires" is a PC game.

Today's game magazines do not pay much attention to games on the PC platform, because whether it is audience or sales, games on the PC platform are indeed very different from console games.

However, for many people or developers who are just new to electronic games, PC is their favorite platform.

Nothing else is the game development on the PC platform, without any doorbar. It can even be said that as long as you spend a thousand US dollars to buy an outdated Apple 2, you can immediately watch the textbooks to develop the game by yourself. In fact, countless game developers are enlightened in this way.

However, if you want to develop games on the console platform, you can't just do it.

If you don’t want to mention other restrictions, it is just the price of a dedicated development machine that is necessary to develop a host platform, which is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Despite this, Age of Empires caused a sensation in Game magazine.

Jester has absolutely not misjudged the attractiveness of RTS games to PC game enthusiasts of this era. This real-time strategy game with online battles is the core. Since it caused an online frenzy at the headquarters of Mars Entertainment, this phenomenon has been staged again in Game magazine.

"I chose the Germans, the map is the Eastern European forest, the mode is the conquest mode..."

"Wait a moment, I'll add it right away. My name is..."

"There is another person who has not added it. Add it quickly and it's time to start the game..."

One hour later.

"What are you doing? Why don't you harass his farmers and make him develop so quickly?"

"What about us? Why did you build all the stones into city walls? What's the use of building so many city walls? I won't be online with you in the future!"

"That's right, I haven't won even after I've been connected to you!"

Such shouts can be said to be one after another within the game magazine.

Jason is a member of the "Age of Empires" development team, but he did not follow Sid Mel to develop "Civilization". After all, Sid Mel's development team is just a medium-sized team, while the team Jester asked for is a large team. Therefore, after all, Sid Mel's "Civilization" development team was transferred, Jester also dropped several elites from Mars Entertainment to participate in the development.

And Jason is one of them.

He was invited to the game magazine for an interview today, but to his surprise, he just came to the game magazine and saw a scene that made him feel both familiar and unfamiliar - because he had just seen this scene in the headquarters of Mars Entertainment before coming.

The editor of "Game" magazine, who accompanied Jason, also smiled at Jason awkwardly. He really didn't expect that these colleagues would be so addicted.

Even though I know there is an important interview task today, I am still conducting online battles.

And they seemed to be red in their eyes, it seemed that they didn't have a fight like this... However, at this time, the heart of this employee of the game magazine couldn't help but become hot. It is undeniable that "Age of Empire" is definitely another masterpiece. This new game type called real-time strategy battle is simply more addictive and exciting than the turn-based simulation of "Civilization".

Jason smiled first.

He also said with a little embarrassedly: "Actually, this is the same within Mars Entertainment. We even mentioned it to the boss to form a team to fight teams, and also have a standings."

“E-sports?”

The editor of "Game" magazine obviously had a deep impression of the concept of e-sports that Jester had been advocating since last year's carnival, so when Jason talked about this, he immediately thought of the word that Jester often said before.

In fact, this year's carnival IQ includes the new World Competition of "Thor Hammer" and "Street Fighter", and the champion's prize was increased to an unprecedented $300,000. Everyone in the industry praised Jester's courage. He was willing to give an event that had no possibility of bringing him profitable, such a high prize.

When Jason heard the editor who would interview him later, he was stunned for a moment, and then nodded without thinking: "You are right, this is what the boss told us. He told us that real-time strategy games will be a game type that is more suitable for e-sports than fighting games and first-person shooting."

As he said that, Jason paused a little, as if he was hesitating, but in the end he continued to say something: "There is one thing that is not a secret. After the carnival opens in a few days, **oss will announce it himself, which is what **oss himself told us. He said that he will make at least three real-time strategy games with completely different styles in the next few years, at least one every year!"

Before he knew it, the editor also led Jason to the interview room. Just as he was about to push the door and enter, he heard Jason suddenly say this.

The editor stopped immediately and subconsciously glanced at Jason, his face full of surprise.

Although Jason said that the news would be announced by Jester after the Carnival, he is still confidential. You know, their special edition of the Carnival on the Carnival will be released to the public before the Carnival, so the editor couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Chapter completed!
