Chapter 1516: Demon Reform's "Fairy Sword 2"
"Yo, you can still sell 1 million copies!" The fans of "Pokemon" who saw this achievement said in a weird way.
In fact, these fans are a little sour in their hearts, because they shouted before that "Pokemon Water and Fire" can crush 5 times the score, but now it is only 4 times, and they have actually lost.
However, of course, these players are unwilling to admit defeat, and they have said that the first day is actually not counted, after all, the fan effect is very obvious, and all fans will focus on the first day to buy the first game.
After that, the sales data of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" will definitely decline rapidly, but "Pokemon Water and Fire" can maintain growth, because the number of fans of this game is too large, so there are many fans who did not grab the game on the first day, and in the next few days, sales will definitely rise very quickly.
Fans of "Pokemon" are not wrong to say this, because on the second and third days, the sales of more than 2 million and 1 million were increased, respectively, and the total sales in the last three days reached a staggering 7.33 million copies, once again shocking everyone in the circle.
However, there is also a depressing place, that is, the sales of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" actually reached the level of 1.8 million copies after three days, and the gap between the two sides is still about 4 times.
This made Pokemon fans feel a little threatened.
Then something surprising happened, after experiencing the second and third crazy growth, the sales growth of "Pokemon" on the fourth day was almost zero, and only more than 10,000 copies were added in one day.
And the next four days were the same, the increase was very appreciated, almost all of them were below 10,000 copies, which made "Pokemon" fans shocked, is "Pokemon Water Fire" going to hit the streets?
But this doesn't make sense, although the quality of "Pokemon Water and Fire" has not improved much, but after all, people have added more than 100 pokemon, a new battle map, game mode or something, all of which are very fun, and there is no reason for sales to explode like this!
The last thing to solve their doubts is the official website of Steam Games, the latest announcement published on the official website said that because the players are so enthusiastic, the 7.5 million copies of "Pokemon Water Fire" that were previously stocked have all been sold out.
Now the company is ramping up production of the second batch, which is expected to have to work next week, and I hope that players who have not yet bought Pokemon Water Fire can wait patiently.
At this time, fans suddenly realized that our sales stopped not because no one bought it, but because it had been sold out of stock, and we had to wait for the second batch!
Finally, the mood was a little happier, and the fans went to see the sales of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" again, and then their mood became very bad again.
Because in the past few days when the sales of "Pokemon Water and Fire" have been stagnant, the sales of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" have quietly rushed to 3 million copies, which is almost half the sales gap of "Pokemon Water and Fire".
This gave countless fans a headache, and they all said that this "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" was so shameless that they actually took advantage of the time when their games were out of stock to increase their data.
Well, let's not be afraid of the ridiculous logic in these words, because for avid fans, they don't need logic.
In the eyes of passers-by who are not fans, the sales of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" are actually quite good after all, and the sales of 3 million copies can promote the top ten of the annual list.
If you take into account that "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" is a role-playing turn-based game, then this achievement can already be called a level against the sky.
Because as the game has fully entered the 3D era, traditional, role-playing games like Dragon Fighting are no longer popular, even if it is a masterpiece like Final Fantasy 7, the comprehensive sales of Sony's console platform + thousand-machine handheld platform are just over 5 million, which is still sold for three months.
So the figure of 3 million is actually quite good, and as for the sales of 120 million in the previous work of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2", no one in the circle will take it seriously.
However, Pokemon fans took it seriously, and some of them publicly posted in the forum that it must be Daqian in order not to make "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" lose too ugly, so he secretly swiped the data for him, and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" is definitely not as popular as it was sold.
In order to find evidence, this fan decided to go undercover in an ordinary steam store throughout New York to record the sales of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" in the store.
Judging from the total sales of 3 million, then stores in a prosperous area like New York have to sell more than a dozen copies of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" a day, otherwise it is impossible to achieve the current sales increase.
Seeing this post, countless netizens on the Pokemon forum shouted one after another, asking the landlord to find out the truth, and it is best to take pictures, so that after there are pictures and the truth, then debunk the truth.
The landlord happily accepted the order, so in the next day, the netizens of the forum waited for the landlord to return to post.
As a result, in the evening, the landlord had not yet appeared, and the netizens of the forum couldn't bear it, and bombarded with various replies and private messages, asking him if he was bragging, and he didn't do an investigation at all, so he forced the landlord out and posted.
"Brothers, I didn't want to say it, but since you forced me to this one, then I can only tell you, according to my statistics, in 6 hours, this store sold a total of 32 copies of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2".
"However, some buyers refused to let me take pictures, so I didn't have 32 photos, but I still got 14!"
Immediately afterwards, the landlord posted 14 photos of the buyer holding "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" as evidence, but the landlord did not mosaic the buyer's face, and the lawyer's letter warned.
"Why?" Seeing this data, Pokemon fans were suddenly stunned and couldn't help but ask.
"I asked, and they said that when they bought a thousand machine changes, they played this game, although it wasn't very interesting, but when they saw the new one, they bought it, and they really wanted to know, whether Ling'er Zhao was resurrected!" The landlord then replied, "Forget it, brothers, the reason why I am reluctant to reply to the post about this matter is because I found that in fact, the mass base of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" seems to be quite large! ”
"Especially when I saw the promotional video of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" in the store today, I remembered that when I first started with a thousand machine changes, after watching Pokemon for a week, I actually played "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" to clear the customs, after all, it is a free game, who would not play it!"
So I recalled the plot of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", remembered the regret of Ling'er Zhao in the end, and couldn't help but buy myself a box of game cartridges...... Okay, let's not talk about it, I want to see if Ling'er Zhao has been resurrected soon! This landlord's reply ends here, and then the post is full of replies that the landlord is a traitor, or simply says that the landlord is a spy.
However, some people feel that the influence of the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" series does not seem to be as unbearable as they imagined.
Especially on the third day after the game's release, such a post appeared in the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" forum on the Steam game website.
"After a week's speedwalk, I finally met Ling'er Zhao, my youth is back!"
"The plot is a bit cliché, but I have Ling'er Zhao, I'm really back!"
"Eight years later, Li Xiaoyao, I would like to be called the best Li Xiaoyao!"
"Just rush to this finale, I'll buy ten copies of "Fairy Sword 2""
Well, I believe that by this point, everyone has already seen that the plot of "Fairy Sword 2" has been changed by our Boss Jia.
