Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

as no need to locate the base station.
Instead, there were two cameras in front of the glasses to film the real environment and locate the location based on the images captured.

The accuracy might be slightly worse than the base station, but it was not obvious.
Ordinary players could not feel it.

What’s more, these two cameras had special uses.
When players left the safe zone or under special circumstances, the glasses would no longer display the game’s graphics.
Instead, they would display the realistic images captured by the cameras.

However, this image was rather blurry.
It was like what a short-sighted person would see.

The other key parameter was the quality of the screen.

The resolution of the VR glasses directly determined the player’s usage experience.
The first VR glasses were all 2K resolution, but 2K resolution was obviously not enough.
It had to be at least 4K.

In fact, even 4K would not be able to completely eliminate the VR’s grille effect.
However, it would cost too much to increase the resolution.
It would be difficult to achieve it with the current technology level.

The refresh rate of 120hz was necessary in order to obtain the best gaming experience.
If it was only 60hz, it would actually feel like it was stuck and would not be able to obtain the most smooth gaming experience.

If the main function was to watch movies, 60hz would be enough.
However, if he wanted to play games, he had to go 120hz.

The viewing angle was the visual angle of the VR glasses.
If it was small, players would feel like they were looking at something through the gap of the door.
It was more cramped.

However, the visual angle could not be unlimited.
That was because the larger the visual angle, the larger the lens.
The larger the lens, the higher the cost of production.
The original resolution would also be stretched.

For example, a 100-degree visual angle could maintain 4K.
If it was pulled to a 200-degree visual angle, the resolution might only be 2K.

The human eye’s overlapping field of vision was 124 degrees.
When focused, the range of vision was 25 degrees.
The level of vision of the eyes could reach 188 degrees.

In other words, once the VR glasses reached a 200-degree angle, it would give players an extreme sense of immersion.
No black rims would appear in their vision.

However, this was too extravagant after all.
It was not a plan that could be used at this stage.

Old Song set the angle of the field to 125 degrees, which matched the normal overlap of the eyes.
Even though he could still see some black rims from the corner of his eyes, he no longer felt cramped and looked at things through the door.

Such a screen quality coupled with the all-in-one machine’s chip would obviously greatly increase its energy consumption.
A 5,000 mAh battery would only be enough to play for two and a half hours.

This extended duration was actually more suitable because VR games were different from computer games.
They were too immersive and would feel dizzy and tired after playing for too long.
It was actually more reasonable to play for two hours to rest.

Of course, there would be no time limit if he could play as it charged.
It would just be inconvenient for him to move.

This battery was not small, so he had to use a back-up design plan to balance the weight of the entire glasses, which was the battery part, on the back of the player’s head.

This way, the VR glasses would be priced at 4,599 yuan.

It still exceeded everyone’s bottom line.

In fact, at the beginning, everyone wanted to try their best to control the price to around 3,000 yuan.
That way, the price would be easier on the people and more beneficial to the spread of equipment.

However, it could not be helped.
Many parameters could not be lowered, and the price naturally could not be reduced.

Everyone read the information carefully and basically knew what to do.

That was because the specific parameters of the VR glasses would affect some things in the game.

Game design could be said to be an art of ‘dancing in shackles’.
That was because in all the eras since the birth of the game, its specific content had been limited by the hardware parameters.

It was a test for all designers to do their best under the limited hardware conditions.

Everyone did not get to the main topic immediately.
Instead, they chatted for a while.

Lin Wan asked, “How’s Shang Yang Games doing?”

Wang Xiaobin smiled.
“They’re all quite good.
The Fitness Battle is considered a success.
At first, I was worried that the refund mechanism would cause income to plummet.
However, it did not.
Instead, it stimulated gamers’ passion for charging.”

“Other than creating new props for ‘Fitness Battle’, there’s basically no other work.”

Lin Wan asked again, “What’s the next new project?”

Wang Xiaobin shook his head.
“I’m not sure.
Let’s wait for Boss Pei to give us the task.
The two of us have some ideas, but they’re not very mature.”

That was the end of the conversation.
Lin Wan organized her information and prepared to move on to the next topic.

However, at that moment, Ye Zhizhou, who was sitting beside him, suddenly looked up as if he had realized something.

“Wait, I suddenly thought of something!”

“Perhaps Boss Pei has already hinted at our next project?”

Wang Xiaobin and Lin Wan were very surprised.
“Huh?”

Ye Zhizhou suddenly became excited.
He said to Wang Xiaobin, “We bumped into Boss Pei at the door just now.
What did Boss Pei say?”

Wang Xiaobin tried his best to recall.
“Er… Boss Pei said that we should fully cooperate with Slow Movement Studio’s work.
If it really doesn’t work out, we can put Shang Yang Games’ matters aside.”

Ye Zhizhou said, “Isn’t that right?”

Wang Xiaobin was still confused.
“How so?”

Ye Zhizhou paused for a moment and explained, “We can put Shang Yang Games aside for now.
That means that we don’t have to rush to start a new project and come up with a new game.”

“To fully cooperate with Slow Movement Studio’s work is obviously not just to help design the game.
After all, no matter how much we cooperate, the design work will mainly be done by Slow Movement Studio’s designers.”

“However, our cooperation might not be limited to that.
We can also do something that would be helpful to the VR glasses!”

“For example, should we develop a VR version of ‘Fitness Battle’?”

“I suddenly realized that ‘Fitness Battle’ and ‘VR’ seem like a match made in heaven?”
