Valve CEO:VR市場(chǎng)未來可能會(huì)徹底的失敗
Valve CEO近期談起了VR市場(chǎng),他們認(rèn)為VR市場(chǎng)未來還是可能會(huì)徹底的失敗的。
我們很樂觀,我們認(rèn)為VR有個(gè)光明的未來,它正在向著我們期望的方向發(fā)展。我們同時(shí)也很欣然接受這樣的想法:VR將徹底失敗。
(“We’re optimistic. We think VR is going great. It’s going in a way that’s consistent with our expectations,” says Newell. “We’re also pretty comfortable with the idea that it will turn out to be a complete failure.”)
如果你沒有嘗試過任何失敗,你可能不會(huì)覺得你做的事情特別有趣。所以我希望我們能做些讓玩家說這真牛逼同時(shí)也是巨大飛躍的事情。
(“If you don’t try things that don’t fail you probably aren’t trying to do anything very interesting. So we hope that we’ll find stuff that gamers will say is awesome and is a huge leap forward.”)
某些人通過到處嚷嚷說有幾百萬(wàn)(VR銷售量)而吸引眼球。我們不這么認(rèn)為,我不能指著靠單一內(nèi)容就能改變數(shù)百萬(wàn)人的家庭計(jì)算系統(tǒng)。
(“Some people have got attention by going out and saying there’ll be millions of [VR unit sales] and we’re like, wow, I don’t think so. I can’t point to a single piece of content that would cause millions of people to justify changing their home computing.”)
如果你像Valve 的CEO Gabe Newell一樣,身家超過40億美元,基本上不僅可以想做任何事情,也可以想說什么就說什么。
事實(shí)上,G胖不是一個(gè)喜歡跟媒體打交道的人,作為全球最掙錢的游戲平臺(tái)的老大,他還是非常低調(diào)的,基本遠(yuǎn)離公眾話題甚至避免公開露面,非常符合一位游戲平臺(tái)老大的人設(shè)。
