With the announcement of the project of "Resident Evil 5" by Nebula Games, players have not yet talked about it, and another news has been announced by Nebula Games, UEgame and Jiasheng.

Resident Evil 5 will have two different versions, and all players will be able to claim free play.

The first 10,000 players who have cleared all the content of Resident Evil 5 on different platforms will receive a 6% discount code for the purchase of the game.

At the same time, the original plan was that ordinary players would be given a 6% off single discount code if they cleared the customs, but later according to UEgame and Jiasheng, as well as the discussion of Nebula Games, the reward was changed to players who cleared the customs outside 10,000 and there will be a game discount code for a shopping cart, but the discount is not 6% off, but a general 8.5% off, which is also very powerful.

Of course, the qualifications of the VR platform and the PC platform are shared, even if both are cleared, you can still only get a discount code, of course, the first 10,000 qualifications are counted separately.

Player data from PC platform to PC platform, and player data from VR platform and VR platform.

As soon as the news was announced, the discussion among players exploded, and countless players were discussing this blockbuster news in the game forums of Nebula Games, as well as in major game communities.

"I'm stupid! "Resident Evil 5" is free to give! ”

"Will there be in-app purchases?"

"Definitely not! This has already been said to be a single-player mode, not even a multiplayer mode! ”

"To be reasonable, this set of benefits, even if you don't get a 6% discount code, there is still an 8.5% discount, plus this Nebula game and UEgame have almost hinted, there will definitely be a discount activity at that time, that is, a discount on a discount!"

"At least you can save a thousand dollars!"

"But I have a bad premonition in my heart, returning to the original horror, coupled with Mr. Yang's production, have you forgotten the horror of "Escape" and "Silent Hill"?"

"I have to say that "Silent Hill" and "Escape" are real chicken horrors, but "Resident Evil" is actually okay, it's a little bloodier than the other two, but it's still within the acceptable range, I didn't dare to play "Escape" but "Resident Evil" I cleared it."

"Heh, a group of cowards, this 6-fold code, I'll book one first!"

"But just released "Resident Evil 4", and immediately announced the establishment of "Resident Evil 5", and according to this event, it seems that it will be able to come out soon, is it affected by the recent remarks of "Resident Evil 4"?"

"Definitely yes, this should be Mr. Yang's proof to the outside world, and it feels like there is always a deeper meaning."

"But if it's a VR version, I'll leave it to you warriors to try, and I'll honestly choose the PC platform."

"Who will be the protagonist in this work? Leon or Chris? ”

"I like King Ada, and King Ada's popularity is not lower than Leon and Chris, maybe this time it will be dedicated to the story of King Ada? I've always been curious about King Ada's true identity and why he keeps helping Wesker. ”

With the release of the news, players began to have various heated discussions, and all the previous topics about "Resident Evil 4" were suppressed, and the hot search about "Resident Evil 5" was directly airborne to the first place.

On the one hand, this is related to the IP popularity of "Resident Evil", and secondly, this is Yang Chen's return to the "Resident Evil" series after several years.

Of course, there is another main reason, no one thought that Nebula Games would say that "Resident Evil 5" would be given away for free.

Although players who have purchased membership services on the Switch platform can receive a masterpiece every month, they are basically the kind of old games.

But now it's different, this is "Resident Evil 5"!

Although the reputation of "Resident Evil 4" is a bit polarized, it is still the one with tens of millions of sales, not to mention "Resident Evil 5" directed by Yang Chen?

However, compared to the surprise and surprise of ordinary players, Yang Chen, who made this decision, had his own considerations.

Horror games are not easy to do, this is a fact recognized by all manufacturers.

If you want to make money, it is almost difficult to invest a large cost in development due to the limitation of the subject matter, because it is too risky; And if you take the low-cost route, it will be shoddy and difficult to get into the elegant hall.

So after the original "Resident Evil" first generation, the "Resident Evil" series began to downplay fear.

However, there are still many players who like the horror game genre, just like eating chili peppers, even if it is spicy, but the exciting taste makes people want to continue to taste it.

Of course, unlike chili, horror games are obviously more exciting, so most players prefer to watch other people's experiences than to experience them themselves, especially watching live broadcasts.

On the one hand, it can reduce your sense of fright, and on the other hand, the main reason is that there is such a thing as a barrage, which will give the player a feeling that I am not alone, thus reducing the sense of fear again.

In this case, "Resident Evil 5" may indeed be able to sell well due to emotional blessings or other third-party reasons, but it may not be comparable in sales if it wants to compete with previous ones such as "Red Dead Redemption" or even "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" on Switch, and "Resident Evil 4".

It's not that the game is bad, but it's too good, this is the biggest limitation of horror games, although "Resident Evil 4" is not scary, but the multiplayer mode is online, as well as the dilution of horror, so that players can have the courage to play alone.

If a horror game gives you the feeling that at 12 o'clock in the evening all the power facilities are not available, the room is silent, and even your own breathing and heartbeat can be heard clearly, from time to time a cold wind blows outside the house, and then accompanied by one or two occasional stray cats and dogs, your mobile phone ringtone suddenly rings to show that the number is 11 4, you don't need to answer it automatically, tell you to go downstairs to the door of the community to get a takeaway, who can withstand this?

With this kind of game experience, do you buy the game or not?

…………

While players are talking about Resident Evil 5, preparations for Resident Evil 5 are also underway.

First of all, there is the aspect of passing the rating, and there are UEgames to operate in overseas channels, and the energy of UEgames in overseas is much wider than that of Nebula games.

As for the domestic situation, there is not much of a problem with the classification, because of the perfection of real-name authentication, there is no need to worry about minors using other people's ID cards to get games that they can't originally buy, so there is basically no need to directly apply one size fits all.

Of course, "Resident Evil 5" still got a 17R score as expected, which is not too much of a problem, the only thing that is a little troublesome is the problem of the VR platform.

For example, heart rate detection, as well as player qualification review, these are some of the more troublesome things.

And there are no relevant policy requirements, which leads to some manufacturers will do it, and some manufacturers will not.

But the main thing is that there really hasn't been any tragedy yet, but if there is no such situation, it doesn't mean that you can do it casually.

Yang Chen is still more inclined to be conservative, after all, there are still many people staring at today's Nebula games, and Yang Chen also believes that with the maturity of the VR platform, there will definitely be corresponding policies in the future.
