I don't understand.

Completely incomprehensible unfolding.

In the first April of the new millennium, many game manufacturers fell into a state of collective confusion.

A very special game that has brought the entire game market into an indescribably ultra-subtle state.

What the hell is this?

Can the game still be played like this?

I don't understand this!

Why is a browser game so popular?

"Infinite Realm" has been in a state of explosion since it was launched, and the number of registrations for the game is increasing rapidly, which is obviously going to millions.

And according to the official data, the payment rate of the game is close to thirty percent, and more than half of these three percent are monthly card users, but there are still a lot of krypton players, and more people should be in the hall how to krypton.

It's not as big as a game with tens of millions of copies, but don't forget ...... It's a browser game!

There are so many people playing web games, and they are so popular, and there are people who are heavy on krypton, such data is simply eye-catching.

The current number of network users is 10 million, and if these million users can reach it within the year, this will account for almost one-tenth of the total number of people in the entire market.

That's a scary statistic.

Even Sony is a little puzzled by this.

Why is this so?

The popularity of "Hero's Track" before made Sony a little strange.

It's not that they're red-eyed, it's just that they're also studying the phenomenon of online games.

Although the PS2 development team looks down on online games, it is undeniable that the latter's ability to attract money is strong.

The number of players in the game "Hero's Trajectory" is probably less than half of that of "Resident Evil", but the payment rate and continuous profitability of others have crushed the latter. And, as the web grows, this trend is growing.

Originally, Sony thought that this was just a special case in the Lighthouse Country, because the game was not popular on the mud bombardment side.

But it turned out that they were wrong.

Because this game is in the next few countries, and even in Europe, it belongs to the kind of hot mess.

This shows that the big market is indeed such a trend, and it is actually the market itself that is the mud bombardment.

"Online games are a special case of Omi, and players in my country prefer good games with depth and plot, so they won't play that kind of fast food game!"

The analyst, having analyzed the situation, gave such a conclusion.

Of course, there are also those who see the future of online gaming.

Especially after the mud bombardment promoted the R-Japan plan, the online payment system has also become popular, which makes people think about it.

Many people are thinking about how to make an online game that meets the aesthetics of mud bombing.

And it was at this time that "No Border" appeared.

There is no hollowing out design, there is no strange special design, and there are not even performance requirements for the machine.

The biggest requirement of this game is actually just the network environment, and for a mud bomb that is popularizing broadband and is at the forefront of the world, this network speed is not to mention.

"Borderless is a game that followed the online payment system, and this game doesn't have much gameplay, and the so-called 'degree of freedom' is only reflected in the textual content, which is nothing new, which is reminiscent of the word games of the 90s. This is not progress, but a step backwards. With the popularity of the Internet and the increase in the number of players, shoddy games will always be abandoned. ”

A game producer, who did not want to be named, said this in an interview.

With the popularity of the game, wonderful things appeared in the mud bombardment.

There is not much praise in the industry, but there are many negative comments.

"It's a bad situation. Sitting in the office of Company A, Qianjia is occupying Senxia's computer, looking at the comments on the Internet, and revealing some insider information to Senxia by the way.

"Well, because our success today is not overseas, but locally. And our game is more special, and there are many people with unbalanced mentality, which I believe is inevitable. But what they are doing in private, who knows. ”

Senxia was sitting on the sofa at this time, and Iki was standing next to Senxia at this time, and after Lihua went home to rest, Senxia simply asked Sister Iki back from the old man, and Iki was also his maid chief.

Not to mention, Sister Yiji really handled the affairs of the club clearly.

"Ah, you're right. Qianjia said, "Privately, there are already many clubs that want to prepare to make browser games. ”

Because the Qianyu family has a very wide network, Qianjia also knows some news.

"Ah, yes, even Sega wants to get involved......"

There are also a lot of contacts on the side of the A Society and the Order of the Phoenix, and Sen Xia has also gotten a lot of news through here.

"It's unusual for a game that pays for itself on the day it is launched, and no one is blushing. Senxia doesn't care, "Hero Trajectory is a popular game overseas, and the industry doesn't care, but "Borderless" is a hit in the mud......"

For mud bombardment manufacturers, the reference of overseas news is relatively low, and no one will change their style in order to cater to Europeans and Americans.

But this game on Senxia's side is a local fire in the mud!

"And we also have some bad news, Brave New World has two-thirds fewer active people on these two days. ”

If you don't have 18x and a fully random expansion map,"Infinite Realm" can be called an upgraded version of "Brave New World",A lot of users on Senxia's side,It's directly from the "Brave New World" side.,Because there are some similarities in the system.,So many of these players have become the best in the game.。

"Then the game doesn't make much money, and if you don't have 18x content, players will come back later. ”

"Hmm...... Maybe you can consider making an 18x online game in the future......"

Qianjia's words made Senxia feel that he might really be able to do this.

It's just that Sen Xia estimates that even if it can be made at that time, it will not use the mode of "Brave New World", because the game itself is a hardcore game in 18x, and ordinary people can't play it.

Just keep it that way for now.

Senxia thinks so.

"But what now, we can't stop others from making web games. Qianjia asked about Senxia's plan.

"yes, so 'Borderless' is also going to be animated, and we can sell discs and send SSR. ”

In this world, there is a very powerful force.

This power is unlimited, majestic, and incomparable.

That is the "power of the king".

The so-called power of the king, of course, is to give away the relevant content of the game at the same time when the disc is sold.

It's like if FGO suddenly said that he wanted to animate, and then the person who bought the Blu-ray DVD, one person gave a Zhuge Kongming and Gilgamesh, then this Blu-ray DVD can definitely be sold to explode, which is called "The Power of the King".

This power can directly increase sales by 30,000 to 50,000.

"But what about the negative news?" Qianjia was concerned about this, "It doesn't matter if it's usual, but you can't say it at this time." ”

Qianjia actually doesn't care about this kind of slander.

But the problem is that the current situation of the Order of the Phoenix, if it encounters reputational problems again, it will be troublesome.

"Actually, I don't think there's anything wrong with our game. But there is always someone who can find fault, and I can't help this. Senxia shrugged.

He knows what he's facing.

It's one thing for other people to blush and say strange things, but on the other hand, they also want to make this kind of game because the investment is small and the money comes quickly.

"To be honest, I didn't expect it to be so popular. I think this guy is quite well analyzed. We are taking advantage of the opening of online payments. ”

Although there was also an online payment system before, in fact, that system was not convenient, but in the past two years, the online payment here has been much more convenient.

In fact, Senxia was originally more optimistic about the game "Minecraft", and "Borderless" was just used as an additive.

But the problem is that compared with "Minecraft", "Borderless" became so popular that it had no friends after it was launched, and the tepid "Minecraft" over there was simply a world of ice and fire, even Sen Xia himself never expected to encounter such a situation.

But now Senxia is almost relieved.

"Minecraft" is a long-selling game, and I don't care about the so-called first release or something, because the sales of this kind of game are not like other games, and then go all the way down, but the kind of game that can start low and go high, and even sell all the time.

For example, the "Pokemon" series, is this genre.

Maybe the topic of this kind of work is not very new, but this kind of game can sell money, and it can have a very good reputation.

Can the average person do it?

Not at all!

"And we have a counter-strategy. Senxia said.

"What do you want to do?" asked Chika.

"Hmm...... If you open the folder on your desktop, it's the one marked with '1'. ”

After hearing Senxia's statement, Qianjia closed the forum and then opened the folder that Senxia said.

Inside the folder are several text documents.

Qianjia opened the document and was dumbfounded.

The content of these documents is a press release.

To be precise, it's all gossip.

"I asked the following to prepare, some of which I wrote myself. "Mori Xia looks quite proud.

"Sony said that web games are the direction of game development, lightweight games are the future trend, and the current web games are low-quality and low-volume games, and Sony will have more high-quality games in the future......

"Nintendo will launch the GBA2 generation, and the GBA2 generation will provide an Internet mode where you can play browser games......"

Qianjia rolled her eyes.

"Is it a press release like this? You're not afraid that they'll come to your door?"

"No, it's not a press release, it's uncle's party and gossip. Browser games are inherently weaker in terms of gameplay, and they attack us with gameplay, and we can't refute it. So the best way to do that is to pull everyone to the same level and then beat them with our experience. ”

Hearing Senxia's words, Qianjia thought about propping her head, "Oh, in that case, haven't you considered, do we have more methods, such as the cross-platform nature of the browser game, or the portability of the browser game itself." ”

"Of course there is, but it doesn't matter. Because your opponent will cover his ears and shout things like 'I don't listen, I don't listen,' and there's nothing you can do. The purpose of the debate is not to convince the other side, but to allow the audience to be persuaded by themselves. The official explanation will make us have a shortness of breath idea, but it doesn't mean that we have no way to take a look, in the eyes of other players, these game manufacturers have started to make browser games, what will players think?"

“...... You have a point. Qianjia thought about it for a while, and thought that although Senxia's method was wonderful, it was surprisingly interesting.

"Yes, and more importantly, they don't have a way to refute it yet. ”

Although the other party will flatly deny it, there is no doubt that seeing that a browser game on Senxia's side is so popular, they will definitely come to study this category of games. But the problem is that among them, there is actually a real "uncle party".

"When the time comes, we'll unveil our game engine and announce that Sony and Nintendo are welcome to join the web gaming camp......"

"Oh, that's fun!"

Although the other party will study it, it will definitely not be announced and sold casually. The purpose of the research was to figure out what a web game was and to make a plan in case something else happened, but it is impossible to develop it now.

But as soon as Senxia said this, this thing is equivalent to yellow mud falling into the crotch of his pants, which is not but.

"Also, you just said that "Borderless" is also going to be animated?" Qianjia thought of what Mori Xia had just said.

"That's right. Wouldn't it be a waste if we didn't animate our game?" said Mori Xia, "Don't you think our anime can make something really interesting." ”

"You haven't even written a script, have you?"

"Well, this one can be slow. As soon as he said "script", Sen Xia shrank his head, "We still have to do "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden" and "Sword Art Online" on our side, and we also have to dock with other members of the Mithril camp, and the time is ...... Ahem...... It's not a lot. ”

Well, Senxia announced that he would cooperate with other game manufacturers to develop animations, which is an established matter, so there is really not much time here.

Well, that's definitely not an excuse to paddle, absolutely not!

"Well, let's take a look at the popularity of "Borderless" first, and if this popularity can continue, let's animate. ”

Qianjia spoke.

Well, she's also the proprietress of Musashino and A-Society.
