Chapter 83 The Mainstream of Future Games: Freedom
Just as Zhao Hao was leisurely in Seattle, he went to Valve for a visit, and then took Tolia to play in Seattle.≧
These days, the Internet, or the gaming industry, can be said to be in a turmoil.
All the topics around are a game, and there is only this game ‘Minecraft’.
After Zhao Hao talked about cooperation with Gab Newell that day, the contract was confirmed the next day.
At the same time, Zhao Hao also contacted a domestic studio to be responsible for posting news about the fact that Touch D can be listed on the Steam Creative Workshop and the official server map.
Since the "Minecraft" sold, Zhao Hao's studio has begun to expand slowly, except for core game production members such as Liu Dong and Li Hua.
There are more than 30 other staff responsible for website forums, Lu Yao’s computer room servers, as well as hygiene, foreign finance and other aspects.
Nowadays, Zhao Hao does not need to do it himself. Many places do not need to be done by himself. It is enough to hand over other key projects to others in the studio.
The touch d is open about ‘Minecraft’, and the touch d produced by players, as long as it is excellent enough, can be sold on steam. This is really an amazing thing.
Almost all players looked delighted.
For ordinary players, they may play better in the future.
For those touch producers, the touch producers they make can not only attract others to play, but also bring them substantial income.
At the same time, it can also attract a large number of experts who like to make touches.
"Minecraft and sales are open to touch and D production and sales" Just as almost everyone who knows the game "Minecraft" is a variety of comparisons, there was a new article on the homepage of the famous game review website ign.
"At this year, a pixel game suddenly appeared. It does not have a real physics engine, it does not have a gorgeous picture, the only thing it has is endless freedom and creativity. At the same time, it can also be regarded as the first official game company to officially support the production of "Touch D". Although online touch D is prohibited like all games, it also opens the Touch D server area, which many games have not done. Moreover, the official touch D editor has made the production of Touch D more simple. Yesterday, the game producer suddenly announced a shocking news, that is, the Touch D produced by players, after review and voting, it can be purchased on Steam's creative workshop and official website. Perhaps in the next time, we will witness the endless Touch D."
At the same time, the world's most-selling gaming magazine also published an article 'Freedom: Theme of Future Games."
"A simple pixel game is almost popular. All people who love games may not have played it, but they will definitely hear it. It is 'Minecraft'. After seeing this game, some game manufacturers who have confirmed the project all chose to delay their votes because they suddenly found that the game could still be like this, and the game could still be so free. Perhaps in the near future, we will find that almost all games will have a theme, that is freedom."
"My God, I'm just kneeling down, but when will the mobile version of "Minecraft" be released, even if it's a reduced version, it's fine. Now when I go to work, I'm thinking about going home to build a house every day."
"I'm a silly dog. The next door Lao Wang actually built their unit yesterday!"
"What's this? You haven't watched the live broadcast. There is a great god on the live broadcast who is building the capital directly. One-third of it has been completed."
"I suddenly realized that this game is not called 'Minecraft', it is obviously someone else's world."
"Yes, yes, others already have luxury estates, pigs and chickens. I am still fighting against zombies coming every night in my own small house, and working hard to mine and cut down trees."
With the craze for sale in Touch D, the topic of "Minecraft" was once again hyped up.
Moreover, with this trend, the sales of the game actually ushered in another blowout. In less than two days, nearly 700,000 games were sold.
Of course, most of them come from the official game website and the digital version on the steam platform. After all, the physical version is only owned in China, and there is not much value except for one or two figures and the value of collection.
However, although there is not much, the revenue of the physical version is much higher than that of the digital version. No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. Zhao Hao also gave all the physical versions of the overseas version to Valve to contact.
As for the issue of the pitfall, Zhao Hao never thought that Valve is not from a small company.
Moreover, the "Minecraft" on the host and mobile platform have been put on the agenda by Zhao Hao. As long as you return to China, there will be a transplant from Liu Dong and others.
The console version of "Minecraft" is exactly the same as the PC version. As for the "Minecraft" of the two platforms of the iOS platform and Android on the mobile phone, it is a castrated version, and many of the PCs have not been ported.
For example, hell made with obsidian, and the use of redstone to make railroad cars, etc., cannot be displayed on mobile platforms.
In addition, Zhao Hao is not prepared to charge any fees for the 'Minecraft' on the mobile platform.
As for the host platform, Zhao Hao will not make any host platform.
"I wonder if there will be a third part of the anti-terrorism operation?" Zhao Hao asked curiously while sitting with Gab Newell in Valve's headquarters.
The Counter-terrorism operation can be said to be a game that has made Valve Daming successful, but the second part of this game is about to be released.
But what really made Zhao Hao a little curious was whether there would be a third part.
Because when I was in China, there was always a joke that g fat would not count 3.
What I mean is that all the games under Valve have only one second, but there will definitely be no third one, even if it is very, very hot.
"At least there will be no time for a long time, because the first two parts have already taken too much energy from the team, and we want to take a break." Gab Newell said with a smile, shook his head.
When Zhao Hao heard Gab Newell's words, he couldn't help but stun his tongue.
Sure enough, the V-Shop is worthy of its name. If it were other game companies, if there was such a big-selling game, it would probably be proposed immediately.
What's like Valve.
However, Zhao Hao has to admit that this is indeed a company that employees dream of.
And in such a company, creative innovation will always be proposed.
Zhao Hao has seen it in the short period of these days.
