Soon.

There are smart people who have discovered the huge business opportunities here.

Before the game was released, Mars Entertainment first made a lottery that only players who purchased it in the first three days would be able to qualify for the Battle.net test.

And how to draw it is to rely on a card half the size of a palm that comes with the game.

The cards are made of plastic and are very hard.

The cards come in red and blue, and the things written on them are very simple, that is, the Battle.net Pass draws cards, and on the back of the card, there is a string of letters and numbers written on the account number, and below the account, there is a line sealed like a scratch-off lottery ticket.

And in front of this enveloped line, there is a written password.

In other words, in the future, the drawing is to draw the account on the card, and how to enter the battle network is probably based on the password that has not been scratched.

So, after Mars Entertainment just announced that the news of their temporary out-of-stock had just been announced, and there was no guarantee that they would be able to replenish the supply within three days, this card, which represented the possibility of obtaining the qualification for the mysterious Battle.net test, became a hot item.

That is, it becomes a valuable commodity.

Moreover, the value is not low.

Soon, people began to ask for the card from those who had already purchased Runestone Guardian, and the price continued to rise.

It has not been two hours since Mars Entertainment announced the news of the temporary out-of-stock.

The price of this card has already exceeded the selling price of "Runestone Guardian", reaching an extremely high sixty dollars.

Jester didn't know anything about it, and in fact, even if he did, he wouldn't care about it, because there was no way to do it. And in his opinion, this is just a promotional means for him, and the number of places allocated to the card of Tongguò is only a thousand.

Choosing 1,000 out of more than 600,000 people is not a high odds.

Moreover, he went to sleep in the lounge as early as after Mars Entertainment announced that the inventory had been sold out, after all, it was a day and a night, plus a day without sleeping. The consumption of energy is also very huge.

On a forum on the Internet.

It's still a lot of speculation, and soon, a news about the first batch of more than 600,000 game floppy disks of Mars Entertainment was sold out, and it appeared in the speeches of fans on both sides, and then it was quickly pushed up continuously, at first Richard. Garrett or other American RPG fans mocked the words.

They didn't believe that Runestone Guardian would be able to sell so many sales in such a short period of time.

Kanga is also an RPG game known for its low sales.

Soon, however, more and more people got the exact news from their friends, classmates, or other places. Those fans of American RPGs were a little silent for a while, allowing Jester's fans to mock them wantonly, but they were not as fierce as before.

After all. The other party has sold such terrible sales, what is the point of what mockery is being said.

Besides, it's a really fun game.

This is after a lot of people secretly went to buy "Runestine Guardian" and wanted to play it. The players who ridiculed and refuted the useless American RPG had the most genuine thoughts after playing.

By the next day.

Richard. Garrett's Genesis 4 when it was released. Although there are also many players who come to line up early in front of many flagship stores of Weizhen, it is dwarfed by the situation when Mars Entertainment released "Rune Guardian" yesterday.

Moreover, today in the Los Angeles area.

At the launch event of one of Virgin's largest specialty stores, Richard . Garrett also had to go to the site to sign the sale.

Time for the first three hours of the sale.

But even so, the people who came to this store to queue up early were far less than the average number of people queuing in front of Mars Entertainment's store when "Rune Guardian" was released yesterday.

This once again made Richard, who arrived early. Garrett felt an indescribable sense of frustration.

The three-hour signing event can be said to be an ordeal even for him - the signing should be a very exciting thing for the developer, because you see so many people rushing to buy your game, which is a great sense of recognition for the maker.

As for physical pain such as wrist cramps caused by the signing, it doesn't matter.

In fact, there are really a lot of people who come to buy today, even if it's Richard. It's rare for Garrett to hold a book signing when the game is released.

However, people are afraid of comparison.

So, after completing the three-hour signing task, Richard. Garrett didn't continue to participate in other starter activities and just left, he really didn't want to be in that place, because every minute he spent there was an ordeal for him.

He didn't go back to Weizhen's headquarters, but went home, and then fell asleep.

He hasn't slept since the night before yesterday until now, it's not that he doesn't want to sleep, but as soon as he closes his eyes, he thinks of the sales of more than 600,000 copies on the first day of "Rune Guardian", not only that, but according to his understanding, after this game is in the hands of players.

After the trial, many people also gave high reviews.

Fun game.

In Richard. In Garrett's eyes, a fun game is not a good game, and he thinks that a good game should be like his RPG games, which are not only fun, but also have depth.

In his opinion, although the game "Runestone Guardian" is fun, it is really good in terms of depth.

The short number of levels,Only rely on randomness to make up for the lack of gameplay,For some lucky players,At the beginning, the random picture is good,Even the game doesn't take forty minutes,Such a game,In Richard. In Gary's eyes, it's really not a good game.

However, it was such a game that sold out completely undesirable results.

Of course, as a practitioner in the video game industry, and a big player in the game genre, he doesn't think that the quality of a game depends entirely on sales, but generally speaking, games that don't sell well are definitely not good in quality.

Of course, there are also many people who say that it may have a lot to do with the promotion of the game.

Of course, as long as it is a product, the number of its sales needs to be linked to promotion, but if a game is really good enough, even if there is not enough publicity, then its sales will continue to rise, and the final sales will be very good.

There are many such examples.

Even if it's Richard. Garrett is in Vizhen, and there are several such examples.

The next day, Richard. After Garrett slept for a day and a night, he was also a little refreshed, although the sales of "Rune Guardian" still appeared in his mind from time to time, but soon he could temporarily suppress it, he casually ate a little breakfast, said goodbye to his wife, and drove towards the company.

However, he had just parked his car in the parking lot downstairs of the company, and on the way to the company, he met a reporter who had been prepared.

Not one, but several, Richard. Garrett just glanced at it casually, and he could know that there were at least five or six different game publications, and these people were all familiar to him, all of which were the best-selling game publications and magazines in North America.

Not waiting for Richard. Garrett came to his senses.

A male reporter asked a very aggressive question.

"May I ask Mr. Garrett, 'Runest' Guardian sold more than 600,000 copies in one day, and your 'Genesis 4' sold 190,000 copies, what do you think of this sales?"

Actually, yesterday Richard. Garrett went straight home to sleep after he finished signing the sale, and he slept until morning, so it was the first time he knew about his game, the sales figures on the first day.

190,000 copies.

To be honest, this number, for himself, is also very good, it can be said that the "Genesis" series, the second best first-day sales in history.

But the problem is that there is no fear of anything in the number of such things, but they are afraid of comparison.

Originally, a long-term sales in the PC game field, when the first day of sales of more than 600,000 copies of "Rune Guardian" was still sold out, instead of just buying these numbers, it was a little bleak.

It's like the difference between a scholar and a scholar who is often ridiculed in later generations.

Xueba scored ninety-nine points in the exam, and Xueshen scored 100 points, Xueba felt that the gap between him and Xueshen was only one point, but in fact? In the eyes of Xueshen, this is not the case at all, in his eyes, the reason why Xueba was able to score ninety-nine points was because his level was only ninety-nine points.

And the 100 points in the Divine Science test is because this paper is only 100 points.

This contrast is actually the most shocking, for the irrelevant ones, such a comparison may not matter, but for Richard. Garrett is different, you know, he had mocked Jester's game beforehand.

And his sarcastic words were extremely ugly.

At this time, such a question was asked for Richard. Garrett's humiliation, that's just a nuclear bomb. (To be continued......) R1071
