Game Development: Starting with a Reboot of an Anime Game

I saw the leaks for miHoYo's new game, Honkai Impact 3rd: Fate Spirits. It's almost like the author's first game, it's hilarious. It's also a story-driven PvE and PvP auto-chess mode. It's the same game—gacha pulls for skins, and farming artifacts for PvE. It's basically a reskinned copy of your game, author.

Putting everything else aside, at least it didn't start by saying the company went bankrupt and made Genshin Impact, which puts it ahead of 80% of similar books. I really don't understand how some authors can think that a bankrupt company can make Genshin Impact with just a few people. If you have this idea, I suggest you quickly enter the game industry and dominate it.

I prefer realistic settings. Other settings like "high-tech but the technology is skewed, the game industry is underdeveloped" or "the copyright protection is excellent" lack realism and I can't stand them. It should be a game, and companies like Tencent will copy it. Given the initial reality that domestic games lagged behind foreign games; It's precisely because making games is fraught with difficulties that it becomes interesting.

Since the book has already mentioned Ku and Mi, I wonder if the author dares to write about Mi feeling their way across the river while Ku feels their way across the river, including a series of absurd examples such as the Miha Protocol incident and parasitic communities. However, the two communities are now irreconcilable enemies. It could easily escalate into a conflict, so I suggest glossing over it in the future; otherwise, the book might get reported and taken away.

When reading game-related articles, I've developed a fixed mindset that the core of game-related articles is similar to plagiarism. In this alternate world, classic games from our world are recreated one by one, causing astonishment and admiration among passersby. While this pattern is easier to write, I'm already getting tired of seeing it.

"Floating Dreams, Long Song" is the most boring original game I've ever read. Because it's original, I can't derive any enjoyment from descriptions of how fun others find it, because I lack similar experiences—I've never played, heard of, or seen it in real life—so I can't find any emotional resonance. This is the biggest challenge in writing original works from plagiarized novels. I've already started skipping it; I'll consider subscribing after I finish writing about the game.

Some of those game development articles are, frankly, just reskinned versions of the movie-watching genre. Technologically advanced but with a lagging gaming industry There's Mario and Nintendo, but the gaming industry is underdeveloped. The productivity factor is completely ignored. They think gamer traffic is easy to exploit. They come here to make money without doing any research. The author of any article on game development must understand game development!

Immortal Grass, currently updated to chapter 115, is not one of those game novels that completely copy real-world games. The author takes the best and discards the worst, combining and refining the details to make you feel as if these games really exist. It even makes me want to play them!

First, it avoids 90% of the pitfalls by not having a thriving industry in an isekai world where there are no good games. Second, it avoids clichés like beautiful female employees joining the company, genius female artists joining after seeing the protagonist's sequel, female game content creators living next door, and single female landlady with a little girl, which makes readers want to keep…
