Chapter 182: Dream Platform
Of course, Mao Yi is also curious, why is Nintendo willing to let games such as "Demon's Souls" land on NS? Mao Yi also deliberately asked people to inquire.
And then there was some surprise.
It turned out that it was still the E3 exhibition.
Although Mao Yi was only on display for one day, there were only a few hundred people who actually played.
However, Dream games, including "Demon's Souls", have attracted a lot of attention in the world gaming circle.
Especially the enhanced version of Demon's Souls.
Its excellent quality and hard-core operation are deeply loved by European and American players!
At this time, the live broadcast platform acquired by Mao Yi overseas naturally also broadcast E3 this time.
In China, it is exclusively broadcast live by Douyu TV.
Abroad, it is broadcast by Twitch.
Although it's not the only one, the data on Twitch is okay.
This is why Nintendo changed its mind.
Of course, because the previous news of Mao Yi's acquisition of Twitch was too secretive, I am afraid that Nintendo did not know that Twitch was also owned by Mao Yi.
However, "Demon's Souls" is very well-known abroad.
At this point, it is even better than Platinum Studios' "Bayonetta".
After all, to put it bluntly, "Bayonetta" itself is still the same set as ACT, and the operation is more complicated, and the combo moves are more and more.
Although it has been well received by the media and the industry, it has ......
It's too tiring to play.
It belongs to the kind of typical that it is difficult to get started and even more difficult to master.
And what about the enhanced version of Demon's Souls?
First of all, this version is the full version, not the shoddy version of the previous life where the traces of rush can be clearly seen.
So in terms of the overall atmosphere of the game and the creation of various links, "Demon's Souls" is far more than the version of the previous life.
It has even reached the level of "Soul II"!
Among the Soul series, although the most well-known is "Soul Three", "Soul Two" is actually the ultimate of "Soul One"!
And "Soul II" is also the key to Hidetaka Miyazaki's onto the altar!
So as soon as this game appeared, the Bayonetta, which had only three ACT games in the world, was completely dwarfed.
First of all, the quality of Bayonetta is not enough to change the landscape of the three major ACT games, but it does change in a sense.
That's from then on, the ACT game became the Big Four.
Either way, these games are not out of the ACT's mode.
But the Souls series is completely different!
This is a game that was born out of ACT, but is completely different from the traditional ACT game!
And unlike the semi-finished version in the previous life, this is an enhanced version!
The sensation generated is naturally above "Bayonetta"!
not only successfully stepped on the top of "Bayonetta", but also made European and American players begin to ask when this game will be released.
And this kind of inquiry post, on well-known foreign game forums, has even had more than 100,000 replies and attention!
In other words, "Demon's Souls" is a success that is not known elsewhere, at least in North America!
It's a good game, and Nintendo has no reason to say no.
In addition, its series of other games are also of good quality, so Nintendo naturally wants to buy the console rights of "Demon's Souls".
Once the reasons are figured out, then the negotiations will go much smoother.
With the launch of Nintendo, Dream's B platform was officially launched.
After integrating the previous Dream battle platform, Platform B was officially renamed Dream Game Platform.
Dream game platform, in addition to the previous remastered version of "War3", which has a good reputation in China, there are also a number of new games online.
First of all, the first one is "Demon's Souls", which is highly anticipated and curious by domestic players.
Because there is really no money left, in addition to his own game platform, Mao Yi did not advertise.
However, on the first day of the platform's launch, the popularity was not bad.
Millions of traffic.
However, apart from the free War3, there are very few other games that are very popular.
"Demon's Souls", which is priced at 100 yuan, has been angrily scolded by many people on Tieba or Weibo.
As for other mini-games, there are many people watching them, but the sales are very low.
So much so that after the first day, the entire Dream platform sold a thousand copies of the game!
Among them, the most sold is "The Lonely Desert Traveler".
After all, this one is the cheapest.
And then there's The Hunter.
The reason for this is that the game's label says "First Person Shooter".
But in the video demo of the game's store interface, it's a very simple match-3 mini-game.
Though......
The sound may be a little weird, but it's not really there.
In order to pass the review in China, even the voice, Mao Yi has also made modifications.
It's the kind of situation that can pass the trial, but it sounds like that.
So this label of "first-person shooter" suddenly became a meme of this game.
In the comment section of the store, you can only speak after purchasing the game.
Instead of buying players, you can only use functions such as likes, comments, and disapprovals.
Interestingly, though, the game's store interface also has a rating feature.
Recommended and not recommended.
Some are similar to Steam.
It also caused a group of dissatisfaction with the steaming sling.
Soon, however, just when everyone was curious about how Dream intended to respond, Dream released an update to version 1.01 of the system.
After the update, the game store interface has a lot more features.
First of all, there's the game duration feature.
This one is the same as Steam.
However, after the game duration, there is an extra parentheses.
Inside is how long the current player has been playing the game at the time of the review.
This feature is actually a game feature that came out later on Steam, but Steam at this moment does not have this function.
And then......
Platform online.
Thanks to the role of the previous Dream battle platform, the main content of this Dream platform update is a function called local online.
This is another feature that steam had in a previous life, but it didn't have at this time.
What is this feature for?
It allows you to play local online games with your friends in different cities.
It's like the Warcraft RPG map where you can play with players in different cities on the platform.
The appearance of this function has attracted the attention of many people at once.
You must know that many games that can be played online are eaten because they can't get together their friends.
And this feature, although it is currently only available in local online games, Dream has been teased, and an online mode will be developed in the future.
After development, the multiplayer game on the site will be able to connect with players from all over the country.
And there is also a feature that surprises a lot of people.
That's the Dream platform in this update, adding a new feature.
That is, you can use this platform to add some non-local stand-alone games, and then you can use this game to play locally on the Dream platform!
As soon as this news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of many people!
