In fact, he did not tell the whole story, and omitted a lot of things. Because he was too embarrassed to say it.

At that time, his parents were both laid off, went out to set up a stall to sell snacks, the family situation was very bad, and he was targeted by teachers, and staying in school seemed to be torture.

Out of the desire to escape, he often runs to Internet cafes.

As a result, his studies were delayed, his grades deteriorated, and the teacher's attitude towards him became even worse. He was even more reluctant to go to school, and he ran to Internet cafes more and more frequently.

It costs money to go to an internet café. The money given to him by the family simply couldn't go for a few hours a day, so he did a lot of bad things.

The same day I got paid. In the morning he did something despicable. He was so deluded that he secretly took the money from his grandmother to buy medicine for treatment.

Then he began to hesitate, should he return the stolen money, or go to an Internet café?

The money he stole could stay in an Internet café for days!

But then, how did he face his family?

Just when he was tormented in his heart, the teacher mocked him for ten minutes in front of other classmates because he didn't answer the previous question, and used harsh and vicious words, almost completely crushing his spirit. At that moment, he ran away and hid in an Internet café if he wanted to.

Fortunately, the radio sounded and asked him to go to the principal's office to get the manuscript fee.

When he submitted the article, he did not write his home address because he could not remember the complicated house number of his home, but only wrote his name and school. So Volkswagen sent his remuneration to the school.

He was so pleasantly surprised that he went to the principal's office. The remuneration is a brand new pink 100 yuan, and five sample issues of popular software next month!

When he returned to the classroom, the eyes of all the students looking at him changed, from the previous ridicule to admiration and envy!

Even the teacher was a little scolding and stopped scolding him!

For the first time, he felt the taste of being respected, and his whole person was transformed. After school that day, he didn't go anywhere, hurried home and returned the stolen money.

After that, it was as if he had changed as a different person. I can still play the game, but I am no longer morbidly addicted, and I start to study hard and get into a good school......

And then with today, I have a successful career and a happy family.

However, if there were no coincidences, what would he be like today?

He could hardly have imagined.

Anyway, every time he sees some young second-rate people in the social news, he does something bad that he hates and resents, he is secretly glad that he has not become such a person!

It was the most important turning point in his life. Posing this turning point, there is popular software, which has a radio to find his principal.

There is also a "Sword Sealing Demon Record" produced by pixel software.

It was "Sword" that stimulated his desire to create, so that at that time, even a 300-word essay was written in a mess, he actually wrote 2,000 words and submitted a manuscript to the popular software.

Naturally, this game is also firmly in his mind, and he will never forget it to this day.

He heard that "Sword" may be remade before, and he is looking forward to it.

But later the official website of Pixel Software announced that it was impossible to release a remake of "Sword", and he was like being poured a basin of cold water on his head, and he didn't think about tea and dinner for several days, and he didn't know the taste of food.

It wasn't until he lost hope that he suddenly waited for the remake of "Sword" to come out and quietly appeared on Steam.

He was so excited that he hurriedly went home, bought, downloaded, and revisited the game!

He had played the game before, so the game didn't give him a sense of novelty. However, the game is full of familiarity, which makes him unconsciously return to his ignorant childhood......

So, he was playing, but his eyes were red unconsciously.

Seeing that his wife was a little unconvinced, he hurriedly opened the bookcase and took out a magazine. It was the September 2001 issue of Popular Software.

"Look here, that's what I submitted. The man flipped through the magazine and pointed to an article.

"Why didn't you tell me before?" his wife's face was full of surprise.

Looking at the lead printing in the magazine, she somewhat understood why this game was so important, and said softly: "You go to eat first, and then you have fun after eating." ”

"Wait, I'll send a ...... to Moments" The man took out his mobile phone, took a picture of the screen, and sent it to the Moments, using his strength to promote the game as much as he could.

……

Annan Lee knew that due to the existence of piracy, the influence of "Sword" was actually much greater than the sales at that time. But he didn't expect it to be so big!

It's only the first day that the remake has hit the shelves on Steam, and there's already been a small amount of discussion on the Internet. Weibo and Tieba have related discussions. In the game section of some online communities, one or two related discussions have popped up.

The people who first played the game were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the game and volunteered to help promote it, hoping that more people would know about the existence of this remake.

With such a momentum, many veteran players know the existence of the remake of "Sword". They looked at the screenshot and decided to buy it without saying a word.

This game brought them a lot of fun when they were younger, but they didn't expect to see the remake one day.

If you really don't forget, there will be repercussions, strengthen your body, and your friendship will last forever.

I didn't expect this remake to be so conscientious. The image looks like it's been completely redone.

It's not like "Emperor X Era 2HD" and "Life X Crisis HD" at all, optimize the game core, increase the resolution, render the texture, and sell it.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, Li Annan rarely didn't go to bed early, and waited for the hour to pass, and then checked the results of the first day.

Liu Kun also didn't leave, so he came over to take a look at it at this time.

When both of them saw the numbers, they were shocked.

According to the results of the last count, the sales volume was 31094!

The vast majority of purchases come from the country. The purchase of the national zone accounted for 98% of the absolute proportion.

"So much?" Li Annan gasped. On the first day, before the heat rose, I got 30,000 sales, and in a few days, the sales will definitely be higher!

There is no doubt that the final sales must have exceeded his original estimate of 100,000 copies!

Liu Kun couldn't believe it. Although Liu Kun has been looking forward to the rebirth of "Sword" can be appreciated by today's players. But he was also mentally prepared for another fiasco.

I didn't expect the results to be so surprising! The sales in one day exceeded all the sales of "Sword" that year!

Liu Kun couldn't help but shed tears, only to feel that Maxima had finally waited for Bole! The hard work he and his brothers had worked for, and after 16 years, the moment of justification had come!

Liu Kun cried and laughed, took the phone, and dialed his brothers one by one, telling them about the good results.

Li Annan looked at Liu Kun's appearance and had mixed feelings in his heart.

This group of gamers has struggled for their dreams in the worst times. They are like working dry soil, and no matter how hard they put in, they will not see the rewards of their efforts. Gradually, they became disappointed and turned away......

But the seeds they left behind did not disappear. Still waiting for the day when it will take root and sprout.

Today, there may already be soil and water suitable for growth.

Annan Lee will find out those old games one by one, package them in a new look, and let them see the light of day again.

On the other hand, Zhao Shan couldn't help but be stunned when he learned that the results of the first day of the remake of "Sword" were as high as 30,000.

After a long time, Zhao Shan barely regained his composure: "It's probably just a good publicity, so that all the players back then went to buy it." It's just sentimental tickets. It's impossible for a new player to enjoy playing this kind of game. 30,000 sales, it is estimated that this is it, not much more!"

……

The second day of the release of the Sword remastered.

The heat of related discussions has not only not weakened, but has increased a lot, and more players who have not played it know that there was once a domestic game of "Sword and Demon Record", and now this game has been remade.

In the dormitory of a university boy, a murmur came out: "Domestic games?

This boy is a heavy user of Steam.,A lot of living expenses are used to "hi +1".,And he only likes to play European and American masterpieces.,Car gun ball kind.。 He thinks this kind of game is exciting and fun.

On the other hand, domestic games are all a bunch of things. The plot is either two men love a woman, or two women love a man. A character will inevitably die at the end, as if otherwise the screenwriter would not have made it up.

Spending dozens of dollars to watch third-rate costume romance dramas, is it too idle or what?

Even the core selling point of domestic stand-alone games-plot,It's all done like this.,Not to mention the quality and gameplay of the game.,It's a complete fool.。

If it weren't for the name of a classic IP and consumer feelings, how many people would buy this kind of thing?

The boy decided to buy "Sword" and find out. Look at this game that dares to cheat emotional money without hearing of it, what will rot into.

When his curiosity was satisfied, he applied for a refund.

Steam has a two-hour refund policy. As long as a player buys a game and feels dissatisfied, and the game time is less than two hours, he can apply for a refund, and the pass rate is 100%.

Once the game is downloaded, enter the game.

"No opening plot?" He was surprised, there was no stinky and long plot at the beginning of this game, and he could go straight to the blame.

It's not the same as the domestic games in his impression. He became intrigued.

The character he chose was a swordsman, and the difficulty was "ordinary". He thought that this game was similar to similar games in Europe and the United States, and confidently pulled the character out of the door, rushed into the zombie group without saying anything, and slashed with the zombies.

Within two clicks, he was slapped by zombies and lay down.

"What kind of bullshit difficulty is this! Normal difficulty is so easy to die?" he scolded. After the resurrection, he continued to rush, but he was still killed.

He found that when the monster hits the character, it will hit the character with a hitstun, and when it hitstun, it can't move or attack. It's like a fighting game. Several zombies shoot around the character, and the character remains in a state of stun until the blood falls out and dies.

He cut out and looked at the strategy, only to find that the combat in this game is very hardcore, and it is by no means the kind of monster farming game.

All monsters have high attacks, so it's best to fight them one by one. First attack the enemy from a distance with a hidden weapon, lure the enemy in front of you, and then fight the monsters one by one.

The game also has the concept of combos. Combine skills and normal attacks in a reasonable way, constantly attack monsters, keep monsters in a state of hard stun, and kill monsters without damage.

"Is it so complicated?" he changed his mind about the game, straightened his attitude, and planned to play it seriously.
