Almighty Video Game Designer - Chapter 183

Chapter 183: Chapter 182: Unworthy Award Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales The next award was for best art.

This time it wasn’t an indie game, it was received by Ascension, a VR game by Zen Entertainment.

The designer was also very emotional, thanking the leaders, their company, and the players as per usual.

The rewards were being handed out one by one, best visuals, best debut work, best level design, best models… These awards focused on different points.

For example, art focused on art, and visuals focused on graphics from an artistic point of view.

One must have an excellent art style to be able to receive the ward.

Most of the awards at the beginning were taken by PC or VR games.

There were some indie games too, but mobile games have yet to be represented.

Although a game like Onmyoji was one of the best in the mobile industry, it still couldn’t go toe to toe to VR or PC games.

Soon, they reached awards by genre, Best FPS game, Best Fighting Game, Best Sports Game… Finally, they reached the Best Strategy Game.

The leader on the stage handing out the awards had changed a couple times, this time it was Qiao Hua’s turn handing out awards.

COM Many had an idea who could win this category as there was only one person who made an RTS in the country this year, and there was only one person who made a really popular RTS game! Qiao Hua said sternly, “I’m happy to announce, the winner of this year’s Best Strategy Game Award is—the designer of Warcraft, Chen Mo! A huge wave of applause followed! Many knew who was going to win this award this year as Warcraft was really eye catching in the RTS industry.

It managed to overcome an overseas game like Legion Conquest too.

Moreover, it was doing really well no matter in or outside of China, so this award was well deserved.

Chen Mo went up the stage to receive the award.

Qiao Hua passed the award to Chen Mo, smiling, “Congratulations.

” Chen Mo nodded in thanks, then grabbed the microphone to start his speech.

“Everybody knows that Warcraft is an excellent game.

Therefore I fully acknowledge the acknowledgement the officials give this game.

Thank you.

” There was a moment of silence before another huge wave of applause.

“Hahaha, this Chen Mo guy loves messing around! He’s doing it when he received an award too!” “My goodness, does his family know he’s doing this?” “Warcraft’s results are to be proud of.

” “But that’s crazy what he did! It’s an award ceremony after all, and the leaders are all watching!” There were varying reactions from the leaders.

“This Chen Mo is quite cocky,” Mr Zhang from the official appstore department scowled.

“He’s still young, it’s a good thing.

Moreover, the video game industry is an industry that needs personalities like this,” Chairman Zhang Zhongxiang waved his hand, “He can be even more bold if he makes better games.

” Soon, the awards for various genres were done.

Up next were the more important games, Best VR GAme, Best PC Game, and Best Mobile Game.

COM Best VR Game was awarded to Qiu Jiang’s Moon Lord’s Prophecy.

The game was released at the end of the year, and seemed like it had a chance at overtaking Legend of the Sword to receive Game of the Year.

Best PC Game was awarded to “Songs of Demeter”, Zen Entertainment’s MMORPG, now commonly viewed as Zen Entertainment’s hit product after Tale of the Sword.

Next was the Best Mobile Game Award.

Most didn’t care about this award in previous years as mobile games focused on casual games.

Even if there might be one or two decent games, they’d hover around thirty to forty million RMB in monthly revenue.

This year wasn’t like the last as Onmyoji managed to get over three hundred million in monthly revenue, surpassing many PC games by a longshot.

“Best Mobile Game, probably Onmyoji.

” “But Onmyoji has a japanese theme.

Are the leaders going to like it? Most games that receive the award are Chinese themed.

” “It’s difficult to say.

Onmyoji’s results are right there in plain sight, and the monthly revenue is sky high.

” “The leaders are just basing it on profitability, they take artistic value and uniqueness into account too, it’s hard to tell.

” Everyone was waiting for the winner to be announced.

“I’m happy to announce, this year’s winner for Best Mobile Game Is— “The designer of Onmyoji, Chen Mo!” Chen Mo was a bit surprised, but he still got up and walked onto the stage.

There was a lot of chatter under the stage.

“It really was Onmyoji!” “That means the leaders don’t mind its theme?” “You think they really care that much about it? They can accept western themes, so why not japanese themes? Moreover, if the players like it doesn’t that mean it’s a good game?” Chen Mo accepted his trophy and grabbed the microphone.

“To be honest, I’m surprised to receive this award.

Strictly speaking, I don’t think Onmyoji is a perfect game.

‘I think Mr Zhang Yuanchao’s Home and Mr Lin Yuan’s Evening Valley Rain were all incredible Chinese themed games.

Their graphics were much better than Onmyoji.

I think I’m unworthy of this award.

“I will continue working hard to be able to make games that are artistically rich and able to represent China so I can live up to this award.

Thank you!” Applause followed the end of his speech.

MAny thought that CHen Mo would deliver a speech like his last one, but Chen Mo was really down to earth in accepting Onmyoji’s flaws.

This made them feel like Chen Mo wasn’t someone with no respect, netting him a lot of applause.

Next, the most prestigious Game of The Year award belonged to Emperor Dynasty Entertainment’s VR game, Wolf Soul.

This was a FPS game developed by Qin Xiao that was placed in the modern world.

The story and design of the game were top notch, and the game was worthy of the title.

With that, the awards have all been handed out, and the annual Video Game Awards Ceremony finally came to an end.

However, most attention wasn’t on Qin Xiao who got Game of the Year, or Qiu Jiang who got Best VR Game, but Chen Mo.

As someone who entered the industry for two years, it was incredible for him to be able to receive two awards from the ceremony.

Many articles were released following the ceremony.
