Almighty Video Game Designer - Chapter 489
Some of the other game modes of the Overwatch were also released, and the vitality of the game was greatly extended.
Chen Mo was considering updating Overwatch every two months, adding some holiday skins, new maps, new playstyles, new heroes, etc., To try and keep the game popular.
” 70 new heroes a year” was just a lie. It was impossible to do that much. However, the new heroes had to be made appropriately, or it would be impossible to maintain the popularity of the game among the players.
There was a lot of work to be done, and Chen Mo didn’t have much time to think about the first game of the year, so he didn’t think about making a new game in the first month after Chinese New Year. Instead, he asked everyone to take care of Overwatch and League of Legends.
Chen Mo also told everyone that he was going to be a coach at Shanghai University, and everyone was very surprised.
Qian Kun asked,”manager, are you really going to be a lecturer?” Then can I attend the class?”
Chen Mo was amused,’what are you doing? Work hard, you’re not a college student anymore. ”

Qian Kun chuckled.”As the saying goes, you learn as you live. I’m really interested in your lecture.”
Chen Mo patted his shoulder.”You’re able to take charge of a game on your own now. Maybe in another two or three years, you’ll be able to teach others about competitive games.”
Su Jinyu asked,”manager, how long are you going to be gone?” It won’t affect our future game development plan, will it?”
Chen Mo shook his head,”it doesn’t matter.” There was only one class every two weeks, and each class was two hours long. This means that I’ll only be absent for one day every two weeks, and it won’t affect the development of the game. ”
“As for what game we’re going to develop next, I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll come up with a new design concept in a month.”
Su Jinyu nodded.”Alright, manager. I’ve cheered you on!”

……
After settling everything related to the experience store and preparing the content for his elective class, Chen Mo took the high-speed rail to Qi Lu.
World No. 1 University was considered a key University in China. Its learning style was more down-to-earth and simple, which was in line with the cultural characteristics of Qi Lu.
It was said that Qilu’s students were more miserable because Qilu’s cut-off point could be said to be the highest in the country. Therefore, the cut-off point of world No. 1 University was also higher, and there were many top students on campus.
As for its shortcomings, it should be said that the world first university and the Qi Lu region had similar characteristics. They were relatively more traditional and conservative.
Although they had a certain advantage in some traditional subjects, their development in some new fields fell behind other first-class universities in all aspects.
Of course, the reasons for this were more complicated. There were management problems, culture problems, and many other problems. All in all, this was an objective fact. Compared to other universities, the gaming major of world No. 1 University was still in a backward position.
In the parallel world, the status of the gaming industry had risen, and it was highly valued by many of the higher-ups, which was evident from the appearance of the game Committee.
Under such circumstances, it wasn’t surprising that many universities would offer a major in game design.
Those who graduated from top universities with a major in game design would often be fought over by big companies like Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment, and they would receive a high annual salary after graduation.
It could be said that in the parallel world, even though the gaming industry was not as popular as financial management, it was still a pretty good profession.
As for Chen Mo, he didn’t have any background in the arts. He studied literature, which was why it was so difficult for him to enter the industry.
If one were to graduate from a top university with a major in game design, they would usually be able to follow a more advanced game designer as an apprentice as soon as they graduated, or enter a large company to be in charge of a smaller project independently. It would be much faster to start.
……
When Chen Mo arrived at First World University, there was a teacher from a school that specialized in game design who was in charge of welcoming him.
“Hello, is this Mr. Chen Zhao? I’m the counselor of the School of Game Design, my name is Liu Hai. ”
He was a tall and thin young man, probably a student who had stayed in the school after graduation. She didn’t look too different from Chen Zhao’s age. She might be a year or two older.
Chen Zhao shook his hand.”Hello, Liu Hai. I’m hair curtain.”
Liu Hai was drunk at that moment. F * ck, this is a joke!
This friendly joke didn’t affect Liu Hai’s attitude towards Chen Mo, he was still very respectful, because the game committee leader had told the School of Game Design that it was a big Shot who was here to save the fire.
In the beginning, everyone was very puzzled. What kind of Big Shot was he? When they heard that Chen Mo was coming, all the leaders, lecturers, and professors were shocked.
Who in the domestic video game design industry didn’t know of Chen Mo?
Chen Mo had just won game of the year, and had been a hot topic in the past few years, so he was quite well-known in the domestic video game industry.
The teachers from the school also liked to study Chen Mo’s games when they had nothing to do. After hearing that Chen Mo was coming, many teachers wanted to use this opportunity to exchange ideas with him and learn the latest design concepts.
After all, Chen Mo was one of the top designers in the country and had many representative works, especially in the competitive gaming industry. He was also well-known overseas. The fact that such a person could come was something very important for the First World University.
With Liu Hai leading the way, Chen Mo arrived at the School of Game Design and met the Dean.
The Dean of the School of Game Design was a middle-aged man in his forties called Fang Yubin. He was slightly chubby, but his face was kind and didn’t put on any airs.
“Welcome, Mr. Chen Mo,” Fang Yubin said with a smile. It must have been hard on you to come all the way from the capital to Qi Lu. It’s our Academy’s honor that you’re here to give a lecture. ”
“Not at all,” Chen Mo quickly replied.”I’m a self-taught amateur. I still need to consult you academics on some professional questions.”
After a round of mutual praise, everyone had a pleasant conversation.
After Fang Yubin gave Chen Mo a brief introduction of the class, he asked Liu Hai to show Chen Mo around the classroom and the school.
Liu Hai brought Chen Mo to the lecture hall of the mixed-use building.
“This is the place where you will be teaching. “From now on, you’ll have classes here at 10 am on every other Thursday.”
Liu Hai had already contacted the teacher in charge of the equipment and turned on the projector and other equipment in advance.
“If you think it’s necessary to use a PowerPoint, you can use the projector. The content of the lesson is up to you, as long as you can teach the corresponding lesson time. You can also arrange for the students to watch videos, debate freely, and so on during the class. You have absolute freedom in this area. ”
“However, the school leaders and some lecturers and professors might come to listen in on your elective class. You don’t have to be too surprised about this. After all, you’re an S-grade videogame designer and you’ve been on the frontlines of research and development. These teachers have long heard of your name and would like to learn some new game design knowledge from you. ”
“Sure, no problem,” Chen Mo smiled.”I welcome everyone to my class.”
