League of Legends MMORPG has been attracting the attention of the majority of players since it was exposed last year. When will it be available online? Will game operations be constrained by the parent company Tencent? What kind of charging methods will be used?
Today we will talk about these topics that everyone is very concerned about.
Tencent's most successful overseas investment company, its main product League of Legends, in the case of Dota 2 has a first-mover advantage, the latecomers are on top, sitting on hundreds of millions of loyal players.
Last year's LOL anime Twin Cities Battle, directly out of the circle. Later, the news that League of Legends was going to come out of MMORPG did not go away, and it detonated the entire game circle.
The world's hottest MOBA game, to make an MMORPG, what spark will be wiped out? Seriously, I'm looking forward to it.
Now the specific system design of the League of Legends MMO and the original drawing manuscript have not been exposed, everyone just knows that Fist has such a plan, and it is constantly recruiting.
Fist company to do MMO, in the eyes of the industry, is long expected, because if a company only relies on a single category or even a single game, that is, eggs put in a basket, the risk is too big. League of Legends is now number one, and it's hard to guarantee that it will still be number one ten years from now. Fist has money and resources and users, and marching into multiple categories is an inevitable road.
League of Legends, as one of the most well-known game IPs in the world, will certainly not be a small fight, it will be the most important game project after League of Legends.
First of all, the head of the League of Legends MMO project, the players who play World of Warcraft are very familiar with friends, the game balance master: Ghost Crab.
Ghost Crab, who had previously served as Blizzard's chief designer, led the development of several World of Warcraft expansion packs and was once the biggest back-cooker in World of Warcraft. Later, he joined Fist Games and became the chief designer of Fist Games.
Based on Ghost Crab's resume at Blizzard, it is normal for the League of Legends MMO to be in charge.
Now the League of Legends MMO has released too little content to the public, only knowing that it is based on the League of Legends world view, there will be a lot of innovation, or the fist company SS level strategic level project.
After so much, back to the point. Based on my understanding of Fist Games and Tencent, I make the following predictions in response to the concerns of the majority of players.
One: League of Legends MMO, will not be a point card charging game, the probability will inherit the League of Legends charging model, mainly rely on the appearance of charging, but also do not rule out that there are other charging models, but the possibility of point card charging is unlikely.
Two: The League of Legends MMO may be more closely integrated with one concept, that is, the "metaverse".
Three: League of Legends MMO, is expected to fill the current situation of the MMO category game famine in recent years, that is, it may become another phenomenon-level game, of course, this depends on how the fist does.
Fourth: Tencent will not interfere too much in the research and development of the League of Legends MMO, although it is the largest shareholder of Fist, but for game research and development, Fist has absolute autonomy.
Five: League of Legends MMO, at least until 2024 may be online, everyone do not rush, it is still early.
In fact, many people may still have such a question, will the League of Legends MMO surpass the World of Warcraft? This is a clichéd topic, World of Warcraft is not insurmountable, many games have surpassed World of Warcraft, but World of Warcraft players have a harder mouth.
If the official costume of World of Warcraft is not changed, it is only a matter of time before it is hung by other games, and the glory of the past is difficult to hide the gloom of today. No matter how strong the Lich King is, he cannot hide the reality of Azeroth's gradual decline.
There is no eternity in kingship, my friend.
