Mindseye seems A striking but somewhat genericA technological thriller of third -person shooting of the Xbox 360 era that recently escaped from confinement and will now come out in just a few weeks. Two of the most notable things in this regard are its director, producer of Rockstar Games for a long time and Grand Theft Auto 5 Main designer Leslie Benzies, and how exceptionally little fanfare has been around her imminent launch. A third is that Eye -eye It will present its own version of the content generated by the Roblox -style user, which Benzies hopes that it will be an important part of the game plan of the game that will cover a decade.

“(The study) will support the game through play.Mindseye, with continuous new content.” He said Games industry.bizin reference to the space where a series of accessories created by the study for the game will be housed, which should not be confused with Build.Mindseye, the set of tools with which players will create their own worlds and new experiences.

This great interview reaches less than two weeks Eye -eyeThe launch of ‘S will be June 10 in PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. “Part of the content, such as races, is done only for fun. But (with) most of the content, we will try to incorporate it into history. So once you have played the great ten -year -old general plan, you will have a very good idea of ​​how this universe looks.”

Eye -eye It was originally revealed Like a spin-off of Everywherea mysterious MMO who intended to be his own open world metavers with multiple biomes and multiplayer modes. That speech helped Build studio to Rocket Boy from Benzies. raise almost 40 million dollars In financing, but since then it has been relegated to the background as the team focuses on the launch Eye -eye As a conventional game for a single $ 60 player in association with the IO Interactive editor, better known for Hitman series.

But although the next game of shooting on an ex -government who suffers memory loss in a fictitious version of Las Vegas begins as a 20 -hour linear campaign, it is assumed that the updates after the launch and the content generated by the users will extend their life until well into the future. It is not clear exactly how, and Benzies is cautious about the details in his Games industry.biz Interview, but it sounds a lot as if Roblox -style exploitation was part of the model.

“We have plans to add multiplayer and create a completely open world,” he said. “And, of course, we must also analyze what the players create and incorporate it into our plans. Given the ease of the tools, we believe there will be a high percentage of players who will launch and try the game, to see how it is going. Hopefully some believe that some believe attractive content that we can later promote and that it is part of our plans to offer it to other players.”

I also hope that “some believe attractive content”, and for “some” I mean Build team to Rocket Boy, who sells a $ 60 game and a premium payment pass necessary to access part of the additional content after the launch. In another part of the interview, Benzies talks about the spectrum of creation in the games and says that he hopes that the construction tools are at some point intermediate between Roblox (hard but expansive) and Minecraft (Easy but simple). Epic recently announced that … paid more than 300 million dollars To the people who do things in Fortnite.

“The dream from the point of view of construction is to allow players to create their own open world multiplayer games with ease,” Benzies told Games industry.biz. “So anyone could take the game, enter, drive, stop at a point where I saw something interesting, create a small mission, return to the car, drive again and create another mission. Once you have created a couple of hundreds of these, you have created your own open world game. So that is the part of creation.”

Those are ambitious objectives for a completely new game of a debutant studio. If the underlying game can offer something solid, there may be a possibility, but if not, I do not think that the promise of content generated by the user is sufficient to rescue it. Eye -eye out.
