Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

"If we're talking about projects that are progressing relatively early recently, it seems like only 'The Godslayer' is one of them."

"The one who can dispel the divine?"

"That's it then."

"But its gameplay seems to be similar to a large map..."

"No buts needed. Didn't you say its beta test was pretty good? Let's go with this one. If we don't have enough manpower, we'll transfer an auxiliary team over to develop the open-world gameplay separately."

It's different from what I imagined.

Whether it's a past life or this timeline.

The initial test results for "The God of Deception" were quite positive.

The vast majority of positive reviews come from the game's mascot, "Chu Jiu".

The classic combination of white hair, red eyes, a pink pleated skirt, and white cat stockings is irresistible.

In addition, there are exquisite costumes and the voice acting is by Kana Hanazawa.

And it has decent Live2D effects.

All of these factors contributed to the game's mascot gaining immense popularity from the moment the PV was released.

Moreover, the first test did not include a storyline; it was just a simple combat test. While the game wasn't particularly good in this aspect, it certainly wasn't bad for a sequel.

In addition, this timeline was promoted by the penguin.

At this point, although Tencent's marketing efforts for anime-style games weren't as aggressive as they had been with Girls' Frontline, they still gave them plenty of prominent placements.

Therefore, both players and the media have given "The God of Destruction" positive reviews.

It is precisely for this reason.

When I heard that the most recently released game for public beta testing was "The God of Destruction".

That's why Yao Xiaodong thought of creating a large map for the game "Soul Solver" to generate traffic.

The penguin's sudden display of paternal love.

The team behind "The God of Destruction" is a bit strange.

However, as the saying goes, you shouldn't refuse free resources.

then.

A week after the launch of Starfire Oriental Fantasy World, Tencent announced the gameplay of the world map for "The God of Destruction". The illustrations drawn were almost identical to the world map of Oriental Fantasy World.

At least it copied about 70-80%.

Moreover, at present, no players have complained that the Eastern Fantasy World is not fun.

So, since Penguin didn't have any pain points to integrate, they opted to stitch things together, adding a large map for co-op boss battles and some party mini-games.

to be frank.

They really do have a knack for copying games.

It benefits from its strong "industrialization" capabilities.

When Tencent copies games, it can often complete the copy within one to two years and release the game.

After it became popular in the world of Eastern fantasy.

Tencent immediately decided to increase its investment in the game.

at this time.

If we disregard the plagiarism issue, Yao Xiaodong's decision was actually a good one.

Moreover, the closed beta of "The God of Destruction" received mostly positive reviews.

This really ignited a sense of excitement in Yao Xiaodong, giving him a feeling that this time he was sure to succeed.

He planned to take this report to Ma Xiao, partly to request more budget in preparation for the upcoming public beta of "The God of Destruction".

Secondly, it also lets Ma Xiao know that he's not just drawing a salary without working at the anime studio.

They're still getting things done.

Yao Xiaodong acts on his ideas immediately.

Two days later.

He took a report to Ma Xiao's office.

Knock on the door.

"Please come in."

As soon as he entered, Yao Xiaodong frowned slightly.

Because besides him, Li Weixi was also in this office.

However, this did not affect Yao Xiaodong's work reporting.

"Xiao! We've recently started a new project. Do you remember the game we had before that had a positive review rate of over 90% during the closed beta? It's called 'The God of Destruction'."

Yao Xiaodong's report was excellent.

He used to do this job, but there was one thing that wasn't quite right in the report.

Li Weixi sat next to Ma Xiao and listened in the whole time.

While listening, he also asked questions from time to time.

This made Yao Xiaodong very unhappy.

Until the end of the report.

Ma Xiao stood up but did not mention the matter of the God of Destruction.

Instead, he introduced Li Weixi, who was standing next to him.

"Come, come, Mr. Yao! Let me introduce you to this gentleman, Li Weixi, who has been here for a while now. You should know him."

"Hello."

"Hello."

The two greeted each other.

Yao Xiaodong was somewhat baffled.

He certainly knew Lee Wei-hee; he was said to be another returnee from overseas, and apparently had some Korean ancestry as well.

Before the Spark Carnival, that guy was incredibly arrogant at Tencent Games.

But he's been behaving himself these past few days.

I don't know why this topic is being brought up all of a sudden.

"Li Weixi is new to the company, but he's doing a pretty good job in his role at WEGAME, both with his previous work on animated games and his recent MMORPG strategy..."

As soon as Yao Xiaodong heard Ma Xiao begin to talk about Li Weixi's recent work, he was immediately moved to a close.

My heart skipped a beat.

He understands Ma Xiao so well.

This person would never waste words, especially when facing him.

What does it mean to suddenly say this?

Although he had doubts, Yao Xiaodong did not show them at all.

He just didn't quite understand what this meant.

Just as Yao Xiaodong was thinking.

Ma Xiao spoke.

“Before you came, Li Weixi told me that WEGAME was carrying too heavy a burden and hoped to find someone to help share some of it. Isn’t this a coincidence?”

“You were the first person I thought of. As a veteran of Tencent Games, you understand both product development and management, so I hope you can come to WEGAME and support Li Weixi.”

Yao Xiaodong heard this.

My eyes straightened.

"me?"

The gaming world was incredibly lively in June.

The potency of the medicine brought by the fantasy of the Eastern world is indeed quite strong.

Even though the official server has been open for a week now.

News about the Eastern fantasy world is still circulating everywhere on the internet.

Of course, while some people pay attention, others ignore it.

For example, Yao Xiaodong is sitting in WEGAME's office right now.

Looking at the lights outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, he glanced at Lee Wei-hee, the "banana man" sitting opposite him.

He stubbed out his cigarette and let out a long sigh.

What incredibly bad luck! He never imagined that in the end, he would be the one assisting this unlucky guy and taking over this mess.

However, compared to Yao Xiaodong...

At this moment, Li Weixi was quite excited.

Chapter 305: The Interpreter of Gods

Li Weixi was excited because he had acquired another spear that could be used as a weapon.

Since the Spark Carnival, although Tencent has publicly claimed that they have won big.

however.

Whether it's inside or outside the company.

It is generally believed that PC games from South Korea are not competitive against Xinghuo's "Adventure World".

This made Li Weixi somewhat worried.

It's said that a new broom sweeps clean, but since that hasn't started yet, he's the one who's getting anxious.

And just when he was getting anxious.

Yao Xiaodong has arrived.

They still came with a solution, regardless of Yao Xiaodong's opinion of Li Weixi.

This is definitely something to celebrate.

"Mr. Yao, shall we go out for a drink tonight? There's a Korean fried chicken place right next to the company, it's really good."

Yao Xiaodong chuckled and politely declined Li Weixi's invitation.

If we go back six months...

He would be willing to communicate more with this person and wouldn't mind helping Li Weixi to develop WEGAME, just as Ma Xiao suggested.

But the problem is.

The WEGAME platform has gone from being highly sought-after to being a useless asset within the group.

From the hype surrounding the Crazy Fun Festival last November to this year's Carnival.

The more intense the motivation was at the time, the more deflated it became afterward.

After all that trouble, all I did was add a bunch of accounts to WEGAME; it was completely useless.

Of course, it's not entirely useless.

At least for Fortnite, PUBG, and a whole bunch of Korean PC games, a massive amount of account data has been accumulated.

Although the players outside are all looking forward to it.

I hope they can play these games on PC.

But Yao Xiaodong was very clear about it.
