Chapter 306 Looking for Xu Yu in an indecision

I hope players can use Ai Generator to create interesting mods or game maps. If the quality of the game is excellent enough, it will be able to do something.

But there is a degree, that is, whether the effort is proportional to the feedback you get.

Relying on your love to generate electricity for your favorite games, and giving energy and money for them, all you get is the praise from players who also love this game. Of course, if you are outstanding enough, these mods can also become a resume on your resume and lay a certain foundation for your future development.

But mod makers who have reached such a level can be said to be rare, and more ordinary mod makers just make them because they like to love a game.

In fact, for things like mods, it is also a double-edged sword for manufacturers. Some manufacturers support various mods in the game very much, and even have special development tools to provide them with them for use, and even publish a mod community on their own platform, allowing players to upload their own mods for better download and search.

But some manufacturers look like they hate mods and even want to stab the mod maker to death with a knife. The main reason is that.

That is, on the one hand, for game manufacturers, although mod increases the lifespan of the game, from another perspective, the longer the lifespan of the game means the more difficult it is for players to move to new games, especially for a buyout game.

Moreover, the improvement and improvement of gameplay by a large number of mods will continue to push up players' requirements for new works. All of this will increase the pressure and workload of game manufacturers for developing new works.

At the same time, mods will not increase their revenue for game manufacturers, so some game manufacturers expressly prohibit various mods.

However, for Yang Chen, he hopes that Nebula Games’ products can be an evergreen tree. There is no pressure on shareholder financial reports. One thing is, the second is that he and Xu Yu have a common view that a game will develop it to a certain level, and the linkage benefits brought by its IP will be higher.

"We cannot reduce the quality of mods in the game and allow ordinary mod makers to develop better. We need to provide them with a complete environment, and even allow them to grasp their due labor benefits through mods." Yang Chen said to everyone in the team.

Although the number of mod enthusiasts is huge, and the number of popular 3A games around the world has terrifying mods, not all mods can become classics.

For mod makers, it is simply a dream story to be able to let the mod exert the power of classics, and then make some big manufacturers like it, or even make it into independent games.

There have been such examples, but basically no slap can be counted. At the same time, an excellent mod also requires the producer to spend a lot of energy, and the material returns it brings are basically equal to zero.

In this environment, unless you love a game to the extreme, it is difficult to support mod makers to continue to develop. However, the same mod makers are also humans and need to live. Relying on enthusiasm and responsibility alone is not a long-term solution. Therefore, all kinds of classic mods face or have such a situation, that is, the lifetime series.

It takes several months, even one or two years, or longer to get a version update, and even after a certain period of time, there is no news, or a mod, which changes hands several times along the way, and even changes the core gameplay of the code again and again. These are all things.

To get to the bottom of it, it is mainly because the mod maker cannot generate electricity because of love forever.

"Providing the corresponding material library to mod makers is just like the materials in the official game production engine used. We also provide various model materials that can be used in Warcraft. According to the quality of the mod makers' map, the charging channel is opened. Players have the right to experience it for several free times, and then they need to purchase to use it. After the use rights are over, players who have not purchased can enter the buyer's room for free." Yang Chen looked at Wang Ye and the team and said his ideas.

"There are no paid maps on the shelves. We will select ten of the best maps every week to provide official funding subsidies."

Is it shameful to charge a mod? It is not shameful. If you have to say something, in fact, like the box in "Biochemical Survival", the items are considered a mod, or DLC, but this is officially produced.

The most important thing about mod charging is how much mod charging is and the value of mod itself.

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Wang Ye and others showed confusion and surprise expressions. They had no idea what Yang Chen meant.

Does this mean turning mod makers into their workers?

"Okay, let's go to work first. I'll discuss something with Mr. Xu." Looking at the expressions of Wang Ye and Yuan Ye and others, Yang Chen also knew that his sudden idea came out. It was probably difficult for them to make suggestions. He shook his head and turned around to go to Xu Yu's office to discuss with Xu Yu.

The idea about mod charging is actually an idea that Yang Chen suddenly came up with when he saw a platform called Orange Light in his dream memory and a creative workshop called Steam.

The former allows its maker to have material returns and income. Of course, I won’t talk about the food. Anyway, I want to charge even a special voice.

But even though the food is ugly, its operating method makes Yang Chen feel refreshed. The official production tools include the materials provided by the official in the production tools and the post-sharing mode, which allow the mod makers to have a material reward.

However, because of its increasingly ugly eating appearance, this has also led to its subsequent development, which has been restricted and increasingly difficult to develop, and it has been self-satisfied.

The creative workshop on the latter steam platform allows Yang Chen to see how his model should be managed and classify mods.

Previously, their official mod community warehouse actually had a creative workshop model in "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", but the integrity is still much worse.

As for whether the mod map derived from the map editor in "Warcraft" should be charged, so that the producers of maps with excellent enough can gain material gains, so that they can make maps more enthusiastic, or just be a manager, just like when they were in "The Elder Scrolls: Sky", Yang Chen did not make a good decision for a while.

Although Yang Chen himself was unsure of this kind of business-related matter, he understood one thing quite well.

That is, when he can't handle the issue of profits, it's all right to discuss it with Xu Yu.

So, five minutes later, Xu Yu's office had just completed the report on the e-sports development plan of "Yu Gambler". Xu Yu, who wanted to be a little naive for a while, looked at Yang Chen who was pushing the door open, and he sighed silently.
