Some experienced and regular surfers must know that since the Internet began to spread, the ecology of the entire game industry has changed. In the era when the Internet was not popular, players had to rely on a variety of magazines to obtain game information; but with the popularity of the home network, one website after another on the Internet, with the speed of update to provide players with richer intelligence, also changed the original game ecology. Due to the interactivity and informative nature of the network, the various platforms on the network today have become the first channel for many players to obtain game information.
In an era when the Internet was not widespread, players who wanted to find answers to game questions usually relied on magazines or a variety of guide materials. However, after the rise of the Internet, one game discussion area after another on the Internet has quickly become a channel for players to find answers and ask questions, such as various domestic Tieba bars, forums, and game-related discussions that have been in various game big media APP are also very hot. As a result of the rise of these discussion forums, a group of so-called "half-bucket water experts" also appeared on the Internet, or they can be called "understanding brothers".
This group of people is characterized by not knowing much about the production and design of the game, but they are particularly good at criticism and insults. Take a look at the discussion boards of each game, which are the areas where these people haunt. And their naïve and ignorant speeches amused to people who really understand the relationship between game production and operation. The reason why I call these people half a bucket of water experts is because these people seem to know games very well, but in fact their views and ideas are unrealistic, and they have no effect on the development of the entire game industry.
The first major feature of this type of expert is that they think they know a lot about game design, so they often see them criticizing 2D and 3D, turn-based games and real-time games on the discussion board. In fact, people who really understand game making know that whether it is 2D or 3D, turn-based or real-time, it does not actually represent the technology of the game. Because games are not more representative of everything than technology, how to use the appropriate technology to express the effect of the game is more important than simply playing with high-level technology.
For example, because some online games players grab equipment and steal monsters, game companies have adopted a battlefield-cutting turn-based approach to avoid this situation. This is done for the sake of the game, but the so-called experts don't see this and will only criticize the game for not having the technology. Exaggerated experts will also extend this point to the fact that some game manufacturers have no technology, which is a kind of laughing dead statement. Honestly, games don't sell technology, and being able to use the right technology to make the desired effect is much more important than just playing with high-end technology.
Another hot topic in the discussion board is the discussion of the so-called occupational balance. Honestly, most of the current online games use a professional design, and this kind of design is actually difficult to make a real balance. Whenever these so-called experts discuss such topics, they only blindly criticize game companies for being stupid and game designers for being fools, as if they have their own way of proposing so-called balances. However, if you look closely at their statements, you will find that these people are actually just selfishly hoping that the profession they are playing is the strongest, so the game company has no opinion at all if he strengthens the profession he is using; but as long as it is slightly weakened, then their various remarks will come out.
These people probably can't understand that so-called online games don't just serve one or two players, so blindly asking game companies to turn their own careers stronger will only cause bigger problems. Some people may say that it is better to adjust all careers as strongly, but in fact, this kind of like law is even more wrong. If all the classes are turned up, the challenge of the game will be reduced, which may lead to a re-adjustment of the difficulty of the final game, which will only make it more difficult for new players to start, which is not a good thing for an online game.
These so-called experts or brothers, their views on the game, the reasons for insisting, in fact, many of them belong to personal opinions, and the real end of the game will only make the game closer to his own requirements. The problem is that online games are not for a few people to play, and when a game can only meet the needs of a small number of players, it usually means that the game is about to be abandoned by the public. And these so-called experts, their ideas and opinions, really represent the majority as they themselves think? I can only say that playing games and making games are different, if these people want to enter the game industry in the future, then it is best to change their thinking, otherwise they will not be able to survive in this line of work with their naïve and stupid ideas. If they just want to be a player, then stop pretending to be experts and making the opinions of the laughing dead.
