Chapter 177 The future belongs to VR?
Regarding the Chinese-English subtitles of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", UEgame and others are responsible for solving the problem. When the conditions given in the last few companies were similar in competition, Nebula Games still chose UEgame, which already has a good cooperation foundation.
Although the reputation of UEgame overseas is a bit polarized, at least in the two projects of "Resident Evil" and "Biochemical Survival", UEgame gave Yang Chen a very good impression.
After UEgame successfully won "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" announced that it would be released, the next day, UEgame handed over an English patch to Nebula Games.
?????
Hang up the phone with the senior executives of UEgame in China and looking at the English patch of "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" in his email. In fact, Yang Chenting wanted to say that they really didn't have English.
It was just that when the game quality supervision was conducted, he, as the main responsible person, forgot about this code.
Moreover, there are not many lyrics in "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", including various collections of books in the game, letters, etc. When did you prepare this thing?
Yang Chen looked at the patch files in the email, and was full of questions.
Silently download the email and throw the patch into the recycling bin.
No you! We have it ourselves, who knows if you have any quality problems or have added some private goods?
After looking at the company's documents, it was mainly about the layout of IP conversations. Xu Yu stepped forward to acquire an old-fashioned print media comic magazine.
In the era of paper media, this comic magazine can be said to be a front-line in the industry, but later with the rise of online serialization, the paper media market became smaller and smaller, and they were the kind of people who entered the market late.
Under the power of capital, the market is almost divided. Even though they were the front line in the era of print media, they did not come back to a new field, but it was almost impossible to maintain their original front line status.
Although it seems that the tide is getting worse, the most valuable thing about this magazine company is its connections and has close ties with many cartoonists in the industry.
The reason why Xu Yu knew each other was that after the acquisition, Yang Chen intervened in the process of personal transfer of personnel, and it was left to Xu Yu to handle it.
Yang Chen does not think that he is more professional than Xu Yu in this regard.
"Achen, read the news! NetDragon, Tenghua and Phoenix have announced that they have entered the VR field at the same time!" Suddenly, Wang Yaliang next to him discovered something and said to Yang Chen in surprise.
With some surprise, Yang Chen looked at the phone handed over by the other party, which was the official blog of NetDragon, Tenghua and Phoenix.
The three companies also forwarded an official blog about VR technology updates and pricing of new devices.
Several domestic VR hardware manufacturers and several foreign hardware manufacturers have also announced the latest equipment, with the lowest price being only US$799.
Compared with VR devices that cost $1,000 or 2,000 US dollars, it can almost be said to have a big plunge.
At the same time, there are news that domestic communication giants have stated that 5G communication technology has matured and is about to enter the 5G era.
Yang Chen didn't know what was shocking in the other industries, but at least in the game industry, when these two news is combined, just like NetDragon, Tenghua and Phoenix, first-tier game manufacturers announced almost the same day that they would have new VR game plans.
Although major manufacturers had VR developments before, they were more just trying the waters or technical reserves. But now, as soon as these two news comes out, the two biggest problems that plague VR games.
Equipment costs and network problems will be resolved.
Some media have also put up exaggerated news titles, "The future games will belong to VR," and so on.
Even with the sudden emergence of this news, the popularity of "Epic Continent" represented by Jiasheng, the Power Storm Development, was suppressed.
Countless players online are discussing VR matters. Even the player community of "Epic Continent" did not discuss some news about "Epic Continent", but instead discussed whether the future will be the world of VR games.
Seeing this scene, Jiasheng and Power Storm were a little depressed, and Tao Fa from the Tenhua Game Department looked at "Epic Continent" that was suppressed by VR news on the Internet and couldn't help but smile happily.
Now you know my pain!
"Ding Ding Ding..."
Before Yang Chen could talk to Wang Yaliang, the phone next to him vibrated and ringed.
I picked it up and looked at it. It was Xu Yu. Obviously, I suddenly called at this time. It must be that the other party also saw the news about VR news.
"The latest news, Mr. Yang, have you seen it?" As soon as the phone was connected, Xu Yu's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Is it VR?" Yang Chen put down the phone he was holding in his hand.
"If VR technology is really mature enough, this will be a huge change." Xu Yu said to Yang Chen on the phone.
"But the premise is that it is really mature enough." Yang Chen shook his head, but then nodded.
"I will contact several domestic VR manufacturers to see if I can get the latest prototype." Xu Yu said to Yang Chen.
Regarding the functions of the latest VR devices, NetDragon and other three have announced that they will develop the VR game field, which obviously has already had data.
But it still takes practical understanding to make a decision. After all, although Nebula Games currently does not lack funds, it is not as easy as the three majors to invest hundreds of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars in a new project.
What is the VR situation? You still need to know it in practice.
Compared with the previous one, whether the performance of new VR devices is enough to support VR games is the biggest question.
After all, although VR games and ordinary games can be said to be called games, they are different from each other. The most important thing is that they are reflected in the material, resolution and frame number of games.
And these are not just what game developers need to do.
If there are problems with the performance of this so-called reduced cost VR device, then VR games are destined to be more technical reserves at present.
For the three game manufacturers of their size, NetDragon, there is naturally no big problem in investing money in VR technology reserves.
But for Yang Chen and the rapidly developing Nebula Game, this is obviously not a sensible thing.
Just like the Cold War in the past, Nebula's physique has not yet reached the right level of the relevant hardware, and it is still not enough to participate.
Chapter completed!
