Many foreign players and game media, after learning the news of the remake of the Riding Slash, were shocked and inexplicable, and immediately sent an inquiry to the developer of the Riding Slash.

Of course, the developers were also confused, and thought it was a joke or something. But soon, Twitter and the official website message board began to receive more and more inquiries, and some people even called directly, which made them have to pay attention.

After understanding the situation, they found that there really was a remake of the ride, and the quality was beyond imagination, but the language was only Chinese. It seems that it should be the handiwork of a Chinese or a Chinese team.

It just so happened that one of them was a member who could speak Chinese, named Ozturk. The follow-up investigation continued with this person.

As one of the makers of the original, Ozturk was actually very unhappy when he heard about it.

It's not that the remake can't be released, and it's not that it can't be authorized to outsiders. But you don't say hello, just talk to yourself and bypass the game official and make a remake without permission, isn't it too disrespectful to them, the makers of the original game?

What's more, the release time of the remake is still at the time when "Riding and Slashing 2" is about to be released. What if it affects the sales of "Ride and Slash 2"?

Isn't this pure troublemaking!

Ozturk frowned, and it took half a day to gather all the relevant information about the remake from the Internet.

The remastered version first appeared on a Chinese social media site and then went viral, mostly free to download and not for commercial sale.

However, the publisher has built a QR code for payment in the game, which is definitely profitable. However, if the account data is not available from the relevant online payment platform, there is no evidence of the publisher's profitability.

If you really want to hold you accountable, the gains outweigh the losses.

So even if Ozturk thinks that the remake has a bad impact on the developers of the original game, even worse than any pirate site, it probably can't be over.

"Damn rat-like villains. Ozturk cursed in his heart, and with a gloomy face, he went to his boss's office to deliver the collected information.

As a result, on the way, he was stopped by a colleague: "Have you heard? That remake made by the Chinese has helped us a lot!"

"What are you talking about?" Ozturk frowned.

My colleague couldn't help but wonder: "Don't you know? After the remake appeared, 50,000 people on Steam added "Ride and Cut 2" to their wishlist! The sales of the original "Ride and Cut" also increased by more than 6,000! The vast majority of purchases came from China!"

"What?" Ozturke froze. He knows what those numbers mean!

On Steam, when a user adds a game to their wishlist, it means that they are interested in that game, have the desire to buy it, and are potential consumers.

"Ride and Cut 2" has shown several promotional videos before, and has also done a lot of interviews and Q&A, which has attracted many players to put "Ride and Cut 2" in their wishlist. But there has never been a publicity campaign that has attracted so many 50,000 people at one time!

Also, the original game has actually increased sales!

"Riding and Chopping" has been out for ten years, and there are not many people who will buy it. Now, there are often only a dozen sales per day, and sometimes even the sales of a week add up to forty or fifty.

Now they don't have promotions, they don't do any publicity, and the sudden surge in sales can only be due to the remake!

Ozturk remembered the call he saw when he opened the remake, "Please support the original" or something.

He didn't take it seriously at all. As a result, I didn't expect that call to be really effective, and some players really went to Steam to make up for it after playing the remastered version!

And that's just the remastered version!

Ozturk was deeply shocked, and his antipathy to the remake suddenly lessened a lot.

The appearance of the remake may not be their disaster, but their opportunity.

Think about it another way, will the remake really affect the results of "Ride and Cut 2"?

The remake is just a complete upgrade of the original game!, but the gameplay is still the same!

"Ride and Blade 2" has added many new features and gameplay, and in terms of gameplay, it has made a huge leap compared to the original!

If you are really confident in the quality of "Ride and Cut 2", the remake of "Ride and Cut 2" is not a competitor, but a foil, a warm-up before the launch!

Ozturk decided not to turn in the biased information for the time being. He went back first, using the advantage of knowing Chinese to fully evaluate the remake of the game.

Maybe they can take valuable and excellent flashes from the remake and add them to "Ride and Blade 2" to further improve the quality of the new game.

In the end, let the brand of "Riding and Chopping" be even louder!

……

It's been a week since Annan Lee released the remake.

The remake of Ride and Slash not only caused a sensation among players, but also shocked the entire gaming circle, especially the domestic bigwigs.

When they first learned about the remake, they were all shocked and inexplicable, suspecting that a certain opponent suddenly lost his mind and went crazy, and there was no place to use it if he had a lot of money.

As a result, people from large companies communicated privately and found out that no one had developed the game!

Who did that?

How can there be such a team in China that can make games of such quality?

They have already killed the red eye in the game market, and they immediately tried their best to dig three feet into the ground, but also to find out this mysterious team and bring it under their command. Even if you can't pull your own command, you can't let your competitors get it!

Think about it, if an online game can have 3A graphics and quality, as long as the mid-range configuration can run smoothly, how can it be done?

Fortunately, Li Annan kept an eye on it at the beginning and registered a small account to post. Although he was misunderstood by the owner of the small bar because of this, he also cut off contact with his real identity, so he didn't have to worry about being disturbed for the time being.

And the benefits that the remake has brought to Annan Lee are beyond his imagination.

"It's crazy......" At this time, Li Annan opened Alipay, looked at the receipt, and couldn't help but be speechless.

So far, the number of people who have transferred money to him has reached more than 10,000. The total number of transfers received exceeded 300,000. He was taken aback.

But seriously, it's not a lot of money.

If it is put on sale, a game will be sold for 50 yuan, and the income will be deducted from the platform's fees, and the copyright owner will take half of it, and Li Annan will take half of it. Then Annan Lee's income of 300,000 yuan is actually equal to less than 20,000 sales.

If you look at the popularity of the remaster, you can see how big the gap is. If the remake of the ride and slash can be released on Steam, it will definitely be a big hit, and it is not surprising that the sales will sell millions.

In that case, what Li Annan got would not be a mere 300,000, but tens of millions!

Therefore, Annan Lee's next remake game must be authorized and sold openly.

Whether it is to avoid legal risks or maximize benefits, obtaining authorization is the best choice.

The Riding Slash remake has proven his abilities. Before he could go to find authorization, authorization himself came to the door.

When he flipped through the private messages of the bar, he turned to a message.

"Hello, I am the legal representative of Pixel Software and the developer of a domestic game "Sword and Demon Record". Can we work together to remake Sword Seal......?

"Sword Sealing Demon Record"?Li Annan was immediately interested.

He played Sword when he was about a freshman or a sophomore in junior high school. At that time, my father was on duty at the unit every weekend, and he could take the opportunity to follow and play with the computer there.

However, his parents did not allow him to buy a game board at that time, so he could only play built-in games such as cards and 3D marbles. Only if he does particularly well in the exam, he can be rewarded with a plate. Once, when he took the second exam in the class, he went to pick a game disk, which was the expansion pack "Ancient Legends" of "Sword and Demon Record".

The completely innovative Chinese martial arts fighting style, which Annan Lee had never seen before at that time, was shocking. Some of the game scenes still remain in the depths of Annan Lee's mind.

It's a pity that it's an old game after all, and the graphics are very poor. What's more deadly is that this game is not compatible with the latest processors. When Annan Lee was working on "Sword of Knights" on the network, he had a whim and wanted to play "Sword" to find inspiration. As a result, after opening it, it was stuck and couldn't play at all, so I had to turn it off regrettably.

The producer of this old game, looking for Annan Lee to make a remake of "Sword"?

Of course Annan Lee was willing. Even if it's not to make money, just to re-experience childhood memories, I'm willing!

He immediately added the other party's WeChat and sent a message: "I am the one who remade "Mount and Blade". I'm willing to work with you!Is it a remake of the stand-alone version of Sword?"

The other party's WeChat name is called "Liu Kun", which should be the real name used.

Liu Kun quickly replied to the message, saying, "Yes, I want to bring Sword back to the light of day and make it on Steam! I can provide you with the license to Sword, and I will also provide you with technical support as much as possible." ”

Annan Lee was overjoyed. It's just a sleepy pillow, what he needs is this kind of cooperation!

However, technical support is exempt. He has a future game developer and doesn't need any help.

He said, "Then I'll say what I want first." We are not Party A and Party B, and we are not you who entrust me to do the project. Instead, I got your permission to remake the game. You can suggest changes and I will consider them, but I will not accept any command and orders. After the remake, you can list it on Steam under your name, but I'm going to sign my name in-game. ”

Liu Kun saw it and felt that it was not an excessive request.

But Liu Kun has a question, he can't rest assured, he must say in advance: "When you remake the sword, can you be faithful to the original game?"

"I promise that the game will be completely faithful to the original. At most a few minor modifications. "Li Annan Road.

Liu Kun was immediately relieved, and said: "What do you say about the cost? How much development expenses do you need us to bear? How to calculate the share after it is put on the shelf?"

"You don't have to pay a penny, I'll just do it. After the game is on the shelves, we will receive half a cent. How?" said Annan Lee.

The conditions are so good that it's a bit like a scam. Liu Kun hesitated: "Are you sure?
