Chapter 459. There is also this kind of operation
Xu Rui finished a meeting on the promotion of "Monster Hunter", returned to his workstation, and found that next to him, Lin Shuyi from the original painting group was watching a video.
The video is the interface of a game, and the anchor is making choices while explaining, and I saw Lin Shuyi laughing suppressed from time to time, looking very happy.
The game's graphics are very simple, some characters, the background looks like the free assets that come with the engine, and the game's interaction is also a simple flat RPG mode, which seems to be the biggest speciality, probably in the rich selection of branches during dialogue and the complex instructions that make people look big when the mouse occasionally swipes over items.
"What kind of game is this?"
Xu Rui stood behind Lin Shuyi and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but ask.
"Haha... Ah, uh, boss......"
Lin Shuyi didn't expect Xu Rui to be behind him, so she hurriedly took off the headphones and even forgot to pause the video.
Now it is half a lunch break, Lin Shuyi also had lunch in the cafeteria, so she thought about watching it for a while before resting, but she didn't expect to be caught by Xu Rui.
"I didn't touch the fish."
Lin Shuyi explained embarrassedly.
"I know."
Xu Rui looked at her video screen again, this game was obviously an indie game for the Steam platform, and he was very interested.
"This game is "Wulin Picture Scroll", it seems to be a game on the steam platform, I haven't bought it yet, I heard that the game of [herbal tea is not on fire] is very interesting, so I took a look."
Lin Shuyi remembered to pause this time, and after she pressed the spacebar, she replied 1510.
"You turned out to be a cloud player too."
Xu Rui smiled, like Lin Shuyi, there are more and more people who only watch game videos and don't play games, and over time, there is a title of "cloud player", and then it evolves into "cloud, anything can be cloud", of course, when most of the discussion of games, cloud player is still a derogatory term.
"I don't have time to play yet, I'll buy it back on the weekend."
Lin Shuyi stuck out her tongue, and suddenly thought of something again.
"By the way, boss, a few of us have made an appointment to go to the park for a barbecue on the weekend, do you and Sister Qianqian want to take the little guy together."
She asked again, Ningjiang in May has not yet reached the heat of summer, and it has already warmed up again, the flowers of those islands in the middle of the lake in Beihu have already bloomed, and the cherry blossoms under the Chenming Temple have also bloomed all over the street, which is the most suitable time to travel.
"Okay, I'll check the time with Asa in a while."
Xu Rui nodded, it's time to go out and relax, the recent promotion and distribution of games and movies has made him a little tired, and in terms of company operations, Xu Rui is also taking on more responsibilities in unknown places and needs some relief.
He returned to his seat, turned on the steam platform, looked at the "Martial Arts Picture Scroll", and after carefully reading the instructions and evaluations, he opened the Chuyin Video Network and watched the live video of the game [Herbal Tea is Not on Fire].
Although it is unfair to evaluate a game through a video, it is quite appropriate to do a simple understanding, Xu Rui watched it for a few minutes, and felt that this game has the potential to become a hit.
“...... It's just that this picture material is a bit too simple.,If you can polish it a little.,At least make a set of your own materials.,It should be a lot better.。 ”
Of course, Xu Rui can't force too much, he knows through the game's documentation that this is an independent game made by one person, and it is very good to be able to achieve the current level.
Xu Rui immediately contacted Huo Luofei and asked him to find his subordinate who was in charge of the Green Light Project on the steam platform to find the makers of "Wulin Picture Scroll", saying that Hatsune Games was willing to provide art and music support free of charge, and could help promote it.
In fact, according to the normal way of thinking, Xu Rui should directly take action, find this independent producer to buy this game, and then develop it by Hatsune Games, but Xu Rui feels that this producer is very thoughtful, he doesn't want to destroy the independence of the other party, of course, if the other party asks for the support of Hatsune Games later, he will not be stingy, after all, whether it is the Independent Game Award or the Green Light Platform, it is to discover the game makers of Huaxia.
......
V9 forum, game comprehensive discussion area, during this time, the news related to "Astral Witch" is a big head, mixed with some game information in development.
Two days ago, posts about "Wulin Picture Scroll" began to appear, at the earliest, some people thought it was the water army to do the publicity, many people replied to ask the group number, there is money to earn together, but later, some people couldn't help but try it after seeing the discussion, only to find that the original "Martial Arts Picture Scroll" is so fragrant.
Up to now, the relevant topics have occupied a small part of the game's comprehensive discussion area, and as a last resort, the operation of the forum has directly opened up a "Martial Arts Picture Scroll" section, and all related posts have been thrown in.
No one could have imagined that an indie game would steal the limelight from the triple-A masterpieces of hardcore technology.
Hardcore software, Dragoon Studios.
Shen Gushu frowned.
The MC overall rating of "Astral Witch" is 7.3, which is not a very good score for Dragoon Studio, they originally expected to score more than eight points and strive for nine points, but I don't know if it is because the media got the official version of "Monster Hunter" in advance, and the score for "Astral Witch" is generally low.
Of course, the media rating is just a reference, players vote with their feet, "Astral Witch" sold 700,000 copies in the first week, which is actually quite good, for this kind of hardcore action game, Dragoon Studios gave an expectation of about three million annual sales.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that "Monster Hunter" hadn't been released yet, and even the ratings hadn't come out, and "Astral Witch" was defeated by an indie game.
Whether it is the degree of discussion on social platforms, the number of views of various video websites, and the number of anchors, "Wulin Picture Scroll" has stabilized "Astral Witch".
Indeed, watching the anchor's dazzling but no Maoyue operations can be compared to other people's love and hatred in the rivers and lakes.
Not to mention that the player's wisdom is limitless, and in just over a week, the players have developed a variety of evil ways to play, which makes people stunned and exclaim, "There is still this kind of operation".
For example, there is a set of top-notch exercises that require benevolent people to cultivate, and one life is not enough, it must be reincarnated ten times, all of which are practiced by benevolent people, and in the game of "Wulin Picture Scroll", the position of the character will change with the player's choice, and it is difficult to guarantee that the ten lives are all benevolent.
So, the smart player chose another way, he chose a benevolent NPC, after brushing up the favorability to become a fellow, he taught this set of exercises to the other party, and then when the NPC died, he went to find the reincarnation of the other party, and repeated ten times, you can get an NPC with perfect exercises, at this time, the player committed suicide again, chose to reincarnate on this NPC, and completed the seizure.
This kind of operation seems to be a game loophole that players have delved into, but if you think about it carefully in the context, a big devil cares for an innocent girl in every way, and has been married to her for ten reincarnations, which seems to be meticulous, but it is just to carry out his evil plan, which is terrifying.
It can be said that due to the randomness of the script, the complexity and realism of the system, "Martial Arts Picture Scroll" is a heart-wrenching martial arts when you play it casually.
"Martial Arts Picture Scroll" lives up to its name!
