The popularity of "Watch Dog" has caused some surprises for all game manufacturers, media, and even players.

The major game communities and video websites have shown a slaughter of the version.

When it was released, although many people were optimistic about it, they just thought that this was a game with hacker skins.

The essentially one is based on the template of "GTA", the most famous urban-themed open-world game under Nebula Games.

After all, this situation is not unimaginable for major game manufacturers.

"Watch Dog" is the first open world game of Nebula Games on the VR platform, and the time point it appeared was also very clever.

That would have to be a hit, and the best point in VR mode is immersion.

The content known to players is the easiest to get an immersive experience.

For example, there are so many themes in the open world. Why did Epike and the previous UEgame all choose to use a modern city as the background?

Instead of choosing magic or some other theme?

The purpose is to allow players to immerse themselves in the game background.

So when Nebula Games began to announce the theme of "Watch Dog", the first thing most game manufacturers, even players thought of was "GTA".

After all, this game ranks first on the hot-selling list as long as it is discounted, or the top three games are really representative.

You don't even understand who is still buying this game that has been online for so long.

As Nebula Games’ first open world game on the VR platform, it is also based on urban themes.

Basically, many manufacturers have already made a default, maybe this is a "GTA" skin-changing game made by Nebula Games.

It's just a hacker's skin.

As for why it's not "GTA"?

After all, the name of "GTA" is placed here. If the VR version is transplanted or sequeled, it will definitely be a hit.

But considering that this is the first time that Nebula Games has made an open world game on the VR platform, although Nebula Games’ best game project was to make open world games before, and on the VR platform, the strength of Nebula Games has been proven through games such as "The Last of Us".

But what if you encounter a Waterloo? After all, Nebula Games has not developed open world games on the VR platform.

Moreover, in terms of cost and subsequent impact, if "GTA" is successful, everyone will naturally be happy, but if it fails, the loss to Nebula Games will be huge.

I won’t talk about the cost. To be honest, this cost is not a big deal for the current foundation of Nebula Games, but the key is that it has a great impact on the IP of "GTA".

Therefore, most game manufacturers think that "Watch Dog" may be a trial and error and attempt by Nebula Games, which is used to accumulate development experience in the subsequent VR platform "GTA" series.

This situation is basically a very common behavior, and the gameplay and mode of the entire game should be no different from "GTA".

The main purpose is to accumulate experience in open world game development on the VR platform for Nebula Games, as well as an experimental field-style game related to trial and error.

But I never expected that there are indeed many elements in it similar to "GTA".

For example, the plot promotion of the game is a one-way linear mode, and the main driving force of the game is also mainly exploratory driving.

But as soon as the game was launched, many people were shocked. This was not a simple "GTA" game with a layer of hacker skin.

Judging from the content released by major game live broadcast websites and video websites, the core gameplay of this game is completely different from "GTA"!

In "GTA", players can experience shooting, racing, flying planes, yachts, triathlons, and playing cards very realistically, which are also one of the important selling points of the game.

The same is true for "Watch Dog", which is mixed with many unique mini-games, but in terms of core gameplay.

Yang Chen and the team of Xingyun Games have made a lot of changes with "Watch Dogs" in Dream Memory.

In fact, in Dream Memories, "Watch Dogs" is a bit embarrassing. The plot of the first generation is very outstanding. Although it seems to be a revenge story with great bitterness and deep revenge, the character Aiden Pierce is presented to the players through the plot performance in the game, and this character also has a very high popularity.

But in terms of gameplay, it is a bit dragging, which is not bad enough. However, compared with his promotional content, it seems to have been severely reduced. In addition, the optimization and screen problems have also led to the title of "Watch Dog" as a shrinking dog.

By the second generation, "Watch Dogs" evolved more and more completely. Compared with the not-so-cool gameplay in the first generation, the various mini-games in the game, combined with special hacking abilities, can be said to be much more interesting.

But there is another shortcoming, that is, compared with the plot of the first generation, the plot of the second generation is a bit bad, and the interweaving of various branches and main lines makes the player feel as if it were not as impressive as the first generation Aiden Pierce's revenge journey.

Yang Chen and the team have also put in a lot of effort on this, which is to allow players to feel the presence of hacker skills in the game.

Especially with the unique immersive experience of VR mode, players' feelings are completely different.

For example, in the game, Yang Chen and his team also joined many more interesting mini games.

Driving a sports car in a racing rush, and when you are behind, you use your hacking ability to quietly seek convenience for yourself, such as lowering the lifting pole of a certain section of the road and blocking this section of the road.

When you enter the casino, you will have a big gamble. When you lose a little badly, you will know the size of the trump card in your hands by hacking into the casino camera. You can use cheating methods to become a gambling god who will win every time you bet.

In addition, just like "GTA", in Chicago, Yang Chen and his team have also created a free world that is realistic and vivid enough.

This is also the most important content of the open world. After all, the real core of open world games is: the world.

Even in "Watch Dog", Yang Chen and his team tried to use some special AI technologies to allow players to better feel the vividness and reality of the city of Chicago.
