Chapter 955: Happiness is all yours, and I have nothing

Two weeks after the launch of Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, its popularity has slowly begun to decline compared to its previous peak.

This is also a very normal thing, after all, as a stand-alone game, its content and gameplay are still limited.

Just like "GTA", which is now on the sales list because of the discount, second only to "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", the reason why it still has such a heavy topic and attention.

It even makes players sigh every time, who is buying "GTA", and why does this game run up as soon as it is discounted.

The main core of this game is also because the multiplayer mode of this game has been constantly updated with new content, as well as some functional mods developed for the game by the private team.

Most of the GTA-specific gameplay topics are basically focused on things that happen outside of the game, or multiplayer content, and new mods developed by modders.

As for the content of the game itself, there is basically no large-scale discussion.

For example, when GTA first launched, the vast majority of players would discuss the personality relationship between Franklin, Tryvor, and Mike, and even argue about the last three different endings.

Now, even new players rarely mention these issues in the gaming community.

This is a very normal phenomenon, in the absence of follow-up content updates, the popularity of a single-player mode game, mainly concentrated in the first half of the month after the release, which is basically a situation that no game manufacturer can violate.

Even masterpieces like GTA and The Last of Us basically follow this law.

Although there will be new DLC content in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, the maps will also travel from Ancient Greece to Ancient Egypt, and players will be able to witness the stunning Sphinx and the Pyramid of Khufu in the game.

But for now, the popularity of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" is basically in a state of cooling unless it is exchanged for a small amount of money.

However, Yang Chen didn't pay much attention to this, and the follow-up increase continued to promote "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", which actually doesn't have much significance for today's Nebula games.

Unlike ordinary game manufacturers, Nebula Games does not need the success of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" to gild itself, so Yang Chen did not pay much attention to the follow-up popularity of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey".

At this time, he was in the office chatting with Grayson and FOREX on the UEgame side.

NetDragon's three major are not just the enemies of Nebula Games, although at present, the other party is mainly focusing on Nebula Games.

But they are also full of ambitions, such as winning the IP of "Roman Empire".

Although it seems that NetDragon was bounced by "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", there are still a lot of fans of this big IP.

As long as the quality is excellent, coupled with NetDragon's three major channels and promotion, tens of millions of sales are nothing.

And as an alliance of Nebula Games, if this piece of Nebula Games in China falls, then it will be their turn to be Jiasheng next.

The same is true for UEgame, which can be pressed by Apex overseas, mainly due to the few games of Nebula Games at the beginning.

If Nebula Games is really by NetDragon, then if Epex hooks up with NetDragon again, it won't be as good as their UEgame to eat.

So despite the previous development of Watch Dogs and Mount & Blade, the relationship between UEgame and Nebula Games seems to have been a little more estranged.

But in the face of the call of Nebula Games "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", UEgame can be said to be the first to catch up, and through this cooperation, Grayson feels that the relationship between UEgame and Nebula Games has returned to the way it used to be.

The only thing that makes UEgame a little uncomfortable is the meta project that was canceled before.

When "Watch Dogs" was developed at Nebula Games, UEgame, like NetDragon's three major games, was also led by a "Under the Legend" of Nebula Games, and was bent on taking advantage of the popularity of meta games to engage in some big-scale meta games.

As a result, before their game was finished, NetDragon told all their peers with the painful example of whether they were applauded or not, this is a big trap, don't step into it.

Thinking of this, Grayson couldn't help but sigh towards Yang Chen: "I was really brought into the pit by you before, all major game manufacturers have carried out the establishment of Meta games, and then they can only give up halfway." ”

Their UEgame is more decisive in giving up, but there are also some more head-scratchers, and the project is still online after NetDragon's "Wasteland" did not achieve any good results, and the result is more miserable.

Especially in the "Wasteland" launched by NetDragon before, its quality is really excellent, and the several large-scale meta games launched by Toutie later are all a double blow to the word-of-mouth economy.

did a bad job, and the economic reputation was a double blow; Well done, only word-of-mouth praise.

It's a big loss!

And even if it's for word of mouth, there are actually better options than meta games.

If you want to make a game with a good reputation, it is not very difficult for UEgame and NetDragon, the three major game manufacturers.

The key lies in the balance between business and word-of-mouth, and if you want to make money, you also want word-of-mouth, which is the most difficult part.

Hearing Grayson's words, Yang Chen couldn't help but smile: "This has to make some sense, we didn't say that meta games will be our next main genre, and meta games themselves are indeed very interesting, haven't many independent game manufacturers also launched games with a lot of meta elements?" And the sales are very good, and even the million-level sales have also appeared, right, Mr. Chen? ”

During the video conference, Mr. Chen of Jiasheng showed an awkward but polite smile.

What are they doing with Jiasheng?

The original tripartite alliance, don't you think they are very embarrassed now?

"Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", the two of you will do it, and even the publicity has nothing to do with them Jiasheng, so I symbolically asked them Jiasheng if they want to invest some money to come in, and our Nebula Games will share a mouthful of soup with you, so that they are now the same as your little brother of Nebula Games.

Although this soup is really delicious.

Looking at Jiasheng's slightly embarrassed smile, Yang Chen also thought of something.

That's no way, you Jiasheng have some of their Nebula games, but UEgame has some of their Nebula games are not strong.

At that moment, Yang Chen changed the topic without a trace and spoke to Grayson: "I heard that the meta game you developed before is an urban-themed sandbox game? Are you interested in making us Nebulas Games a 'pick-up man'? ”

Pick-up man!?

Grayson was stunned for a moment, and then a memory appeared in his mind that didn't feel very good.

On the other hand, Jiasheng is even more resentful.

The tripartite meeting is good, just see the two of you talking, and it is their turn to organize the platform channels and related big data integration statistics.

The happiness is all yours, and I have nothing.
