Chapter 1302: Anyone Of Tengda’s Designers Knows This.

Yan Qi could not help but frown. “Rules and tricks?”

He was very confused. He had been in the game industry for so many years. Why had he never heard of such a thing?

The games industry was the same as the novels and movies industry. Strictly speaking, it was a creative industry. Creativity was very important.

What was there to talk about when it came to creativity? Wasn’t it all based on a flash of inspiration?

If ideas could be replicated in batches, the creation of the cultural industry would be much simpler. It would just be around ideas and constantly build manpower.

The fact was that there would never be a lack of labor, and creativity would always be rare and irreplicable.

That was why real game design big shots were respected in the game industry.

That was precisely their scarcity and irreplaceability.

Thus, Yan Qi instinctively did not believe Li Yada’s words.

Li Yada saw Yan Qi’s suspicion and knew that it was normal for him to have such doubts.

Most designers in the outside world would think that creativity depended on a single pat on the head and a flash of inspiration before working with Boss Pei. It was completely based on luck.

Any designer that Boss Pei brought out would see the problem from a different perspective.

Indeed, creativity could not be mass-produced, but that did not mean there was no pattern or trick.

Boss Pei’s design method was actually to look at the problem from another perspective while copying the game design rules.

Coupled with rich experience, powerful game design ability, and precise control of players’ mentality, a miracle happened.

Li Yada knew that he would definitely not believe her if she told Yan Qi directly.

After all, Li Yada was now just an ordinary employee on the morning show. What she said would not be convincing.

He could only continue to ask his’ friend working in Tengda ‘for help.

Li Yada adjusted her spectacles and said, “Actually, I heard about this from my friend who works at Tengda. She participated in Tengda’s new game discussion and participated in the design process of several successful games.”

“These rules and tricks were summarized by her based on Boss Pei’s design process.”

“Of course, this is no secret within Tengda. The designers of the games department basically know.”

Yan Qi’s expression changed from suspicion to anticipation.

Was this Boss Pei’s design?

That’s right!

Yan Qi would definitely not believe it if others said that they had grasped the rules and tricks of game design.

That was because these people could not produce outstanding games steadily. How could such words be convincing?

It was just like someone who told you that he knew the stock market like the back of his hand. However, on closer inspection, his own income in the stock market was not even as much as the interest in bank deposits. If that was not a scam, what was it?

In the entire domestic gaming circle, Yan Qi only admired one person: Boss Pei.

That was because Boss Pei was not only good at a certain game genre, but he was also omnipotent.

They made all sorts of games and they were all extremely popular.

Yan Qi believed that Boss Pei had grasped the rules and tricks of game design.

That was because Boss Pei’s achievements and contributions in this industry were enough to prove that.

“Sister Li, tell me, what is the pattern and trick?” Yan Qi showed strong curiosity.

Looking at Yan Qi’s expression, Li Yada knew that the preparation was almost complete.

Even if Yan Qi still did not believe it after hearing it, he would at least think about it carefully.

That way, Li Yada would have achieved her goal. At the very least, she would not be playing the lute to a bull.

“In Tengda, every time Boss Pei decides to create a new game, he would make a few particularly unreasonable requests for the designers to follow these requirements and recreate the entire game.”

“Designers would think and think about these requirements repeatedly before finally deciding the final form of this game in Boss Pei’s heart and design it.”

Yan Qi was stunned. “Particularly unreasonable requests?”

Li Yada nodded. “Take Repent and be Saved for example. Boss Pei has five requirements: First, a Chinese background, a large number of ancient Chinese puzzles and text content; second, it is extremely difficult; third, a large-scale action game; fourth, the longest refund time limit; fifth, the game’s name is Repent and be Saved.”

“After giving these requests, Boss Pei did not ask about the specific design of the game. Instead, he allowed the designers to express themselves freely.”

“However, after the game DEMO was created, Boss Pei adjusted the difficulty of the system design and added the Pudu weapon.”

Li Yada’s memory was still fresh on this.

Lu Mingliang was still around when Repent and be Saved was first established. Li Yada participated in the meeting as an ordinary designer.

At that time, after hearing Boss Pei’s requests, she was completely confused. She could not think of a way for the game to become popular.

She had not expected that not long after, she would become the chief designer and personally take over this game.

What’s more, he had not expected to come to the Dawn Games platform to use Repent and be Saved as an example to explain Boss Pei’s relevant skills.

Yan Qi frowned slightly and listened intently. His expression was very serious, as if he was unwilling to miss out on any word.

His brain worked quickly, thinking about the meaning behind these five requests.

At that time, Lu Mingliang and Li Yada had been very confused. They had not understood Boss Pei’s design intentions at all. In fact, they had developed the game in a daze. It was only when the game demo was released that they finally understood Boss Pei’s design intentions.

Yan Qi might not have grasped the standard analysis method of Boss Pei’s intentions but he had played Repent and be Saved before. He had also analyzed the details of this game and even the series of events when it was first released.

Using the finished product to compare the few requirements was equivalent to looking at the standard answers before looking at the contents of the questions. It was naturally much easier to interpret it than Li Yada.

“The plot content written in ancient Chinese backgrounds is to highlight the cultural connotation and establish the label of ‘domestically-produced action games’. On one hand, the high difficulty is to let players challenge themselves and make the game more recognizable. On the other hand, it is to break the dimensional wall…”

Yan Qi went through everything from beginning to end and realized that Boss Pei’s five requests were really indispensable. Everything from the game design to the initial publicity was related.

After DEMO came out, the difficulty adjustment and the addition of the Pudu weapon had the finishing effect. Repent and be Saved had gone from an outstanding work to a masterpiece.

However, Yan Qi was even more confused after the analysis.

“Big Sister Li, I can roughly guess the reason for these requirements.”

“However… Boss Pei must have planned the final form of the game from the beginning, right?”

“I can only say that Boss Pei is a genius. He’s too strong. The other designers of Tengda relied on Boss Pei’s ideas to create these games.”

“Where is the ‘pattern and trick’ you mentioned?”

Li Yada smiled. “At first, I had the same thoughts as you.”

“However, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not the case.”

“I’ll ask you two questions.”

“First, Boss Pei only had these few requests, but he never asked about the details of the game design. Then, how can Boss Pei be sure that the game will be as he expected?”

“Second, how did Boss Pei come up with these requirements?”

Yan Qi looked confused as he fell into deep thought.

That’s right. How could Boss Pei be sure that the game would turn out as he had expected?

Yan Qi had indeed inferred Boss Pei’s intentions based on the completed Repent and be Saved game. However, that was equivalent to a hindrance.

In fact, just based on these conditions, the general direction was set, but there were many ways to do the details.

Boss Pei did not care after giving these conditions. How did he know that the game would not deviate?

There were only two explanations: First, he felt that the designers were of the same mind as him. They would definitely be able to make the game that he had expected through these conditions. Second, he might feel that it did not matter what the details were. As long as he ensured that these few main points did not deviate, Repent and be Saved would still be Repent and be Saved no matter what the details changed.

Or perhaps, both.

What caught Yan Qi’s attention was Li Yada’s second question.

How did Boss Pei come up with these key points?

It must have appeared from somewhere. There must be a source.

Suddenly, Yan Qi had a flash of inspiration. “Are you saying that these few requirements are not only Boss Pei’s control of the general direction of this game, but also the cornerstone that Boss Pei can analyze Boss Pei’s inspiration from when he designed this game?”

Li Yada smiled and nodded, satisfied with Yan Qi’s understanding. “That’s right.”

Yan Qi looked even more shocked.

So this was how Tengda Games was created?

Boss Pei only gave a few requirements. The person-in-charge would follow these requirements and perfect the entire game.

These few requirements were not only Boss Pei’s control of the general direction of the game, but also the cornerstone that he had derived from the inspiration.

Why did Boss Pei do that?

Obviously, on one hand, it was to nurture and train the designers under him so that they would not become tools. On the other hand, it was because Boss Pei was busy with work. There were too many things to consider. It was not realistic to design games personally.

It was no wonder that Tengda Games was so popular. It was no wonder that Boss Pei could produce high-quality games so frequently while managing various industries.

It was all because of this development model that was different from other games companies!

Yan Qi had always been puzzled before. He was a producer and Boss Pei was a producer. Why did Boss Pei produce one good game every few months and keep popping up? He was only making one game and was still exhausted?

Obviously, there was not only a gap in design and management ability between the two of them. There was a huge difference in the fundamental concept!

After confirming this, what happened next was even more important.

He could analyze Boss Pei’s inspiration through reverse analysis of these requirements, which were the cornerstone of the game design.

This was the ‘pattern’ and ‘trick’ that Li Yada had emphasized before!
