After confirming the development progress of World of Elf, it officially entered the development phase.
Everyone had their own responsibilities, such as unifying the art style, refining the rules, creating unique skills and movements for each elf, creating a detailed Elf Guide, planning the world map, etc …
This was especially true for the planning of the world map. Although it was done by artificial intelligence, it still had to be reviewed by humans, and even Chen Mo had to look at it himself.
It would have a very uncontrollable impact on the game if there was any negative news, so it was better to be cautious.
For most video game companies, developing MR games wasn't difficult at all. Even if there were some troublesome aspects, they were easy to overcome.
After all, these games used smart glasses. Limited by the hardware, it could be seen as' dancing with shackles'.
Therefore, creativity was extremely valuable.
Although MR games were a hot topic, many video game companies didn't pay much attention to this area, mainly because they felt that the popular MR games wouldn't appear so soon.
Although smart glasses were developing at an extremely fast speed, MR games had many limitations after all. The overall graphics were even worse than the PC version, let alone VR.
As for the popular MR games?
Many designers couldn't even imagine what it would look like.
…
While World of Elf was being developed, a promotional video for the game was being filmed simultaneously.
Unlike the past, the promotional video this time would use a combination of real people and cinematics, to give the players as realistic an effect as possible. The various elves would also appear in World of Elf in the most realistic HD form, showing the players the strange world of elves.
As for the in-game visuals …
It wouldn't be as good as cinematics, but not by much. — If it was the high spec version.
The youth version couldn't even run through Legends of the Three Kingdoms, let alone World of Elf. The normal version of the Matrix Glasses could run, but the special effects and image quality would be much lower.
The promotional video would be filmed in many locations around the world, including China, Europe, Japan … It would use a large number of iconic buildings from all over the world, showing the local culture as much as possible, to express a very clear concept, "This is a game played by the whole world. This is a game that will be popular all over the world."
Everyone would wear the Matrix Glasses, enjoying the new experience of intertwining the world of elves and the real world.
…
The Matrix Glasses were selling very well, and Zhou Jiangping was not idle. While promoting overseas, he developed various software and system optimization content for the Matrix Glasses.
This was a battle of attrition. Zhou Jiangping had been in the cell phone business for so many years, so he clearly knew this well.
As he was busy, he received a message from Chen Mo.
"Check your mailbox."
Zhou Jiangping put down his work and opened his inbox to see that Chen Mo had sent him a video.
The video wasn't long, only around three minutes. However, after Zhou Jiangping finished watching it, he immediately stood up and made a video call to Chen Mo.
"How was it? Did you see the promotional video?" Chen Mo asked as he sat in the experience store.
Zhou Jiangping nodded. "I did! Is this the promotional video for the new game? "
"Yes, how do you feel?"
Zhou Jiangping said excitedly, "Great! This promotional video was shot very well! At the very least, the concept of this game is very novel. If it's advertised properly, it should be a very good entry point. Even if the gameplay isn't as rich as shown in the video … "
Chen Mo laughed, "The gameplay is much more interesting than what's shown in the video. When has Thunderbolt Entertainment ever done something like creating a title? The game will only be more fun in real life than in the video. Of course, the graphics will be slightly smaller. After all, the current technology isn't enough to make it 100% realistic. "
"That's still very impressive! And it looks like you're using all of Thunderbolt Gaming's IP. You're a good man, Mr Chen, "Zhou Jiangping exclaimed.
Chen Mo said, "Since you think it's good, I'll be releasing the promotional video. Thunderbolt Gaming Platform and other major forums will be heavily promoting it. You guys should also cooperate with us, including the official website for the Matrix glasses, the advertising spots on the major online marketplaces, and the product brochures. I'll get someone to send the relevant materials to your advertising department, remember to check.
"All of the promotional work will be done at the same time. Same for the international market, update in multiple languages at the same time. Moreover, we'll be targeting the international players as we're trying to expand the international market for the Matrix glasses. "
Zhou Jiangping nodded, "Alright, no problem. I'll make the arrangements right away."
…
Although World of Elf wasn't officially developed yet, it was progressing very quickly. Using the promotional video was the perfect time to warm up the game.
It didn't take long before players both at home and abroad discovered that the promotional materials for a game called World of Elf were everywhere. It was on the Thunderbolt Gaming Platform, on the official website for the Matrix glasses, on major shopping websites, on many technology websites, and on gaming websites!
Chen Mo hadn't released the promotional video yet as he was still in the 'riddles' stage with the players.
However, other than the promotional video, there were also various other promotional materials such as posters and video clips.
These materials were very subtle and obscure. Many people couldn't understand what they meant and could only guess.
For example, on one of the promotional posters, there were many young people running around happily in a city plaza. Some were even looking at each other as if they were in some sort of competition. What was strange was that these young people all had a black silhouette next to them. These silhouettes had different shapes and movements. Some of the silhouettes were animals, but most of them couldn't be made out.
These materials were like riddles. Players knew it was a game, but they couldn't guess which device it belonged to, nor what kind of game it was.
Many foreign players discovered that on the product brochures of the Matrix glasses on the overseas shopping websites, more than half of the content was about the exclusive relationship between the Matrix glasses and Thunderbolt Gaming Platform, or information about World of Elf, with the introduction of the device's parameters compressed …
The sudden promotion surprised many players. It wasn't common for Chen Mo to put so much effort into promoting his own game!
What kind of game was it that made Chen Mo put so much emphasis on it?
