093. The best ranch game in the country~

Liu Xi is in a very bad mood now, she always feels that she has forgotten something.

Obviously, several platforms of 4DM have given Stardew Valley a good rating, but those players who eat melons don't even play this game, so they switch to the arms of the mafia, and preach that Stardew Valley has shady or something.

However, Mafia is not yet on sale, and in Lin Feiyang's words, it is to let Stardew Valley for a week, and then compare the sales of the first month.

But the reviews for this game have come out one after another, and on the first day of Stardew Valley's release, the IGN review that was originally said to be good was postponed by one day, and the mafia review was the first to be made.

7.5 points.

Here's IGN's rating of the mafia.

It's not a high score, but this score is also in the playable category, such as the good somatosensory fighting game of ARMS on the game console, which is favored by many people, with sales of one million in half a month, but IGN only gave 8 points.

IGN's treatment of the mafia is not bad, the advantages and disadvantages are pointed out one by one, and it also gave a long review and a preview of the release date.

"Pros: Refreshing shooting feel, intense and dynamic music......

Disadvantages: There are too few types of enemies, and the level is seriously homogeneous......"

Although it was only 7.5 points, Lin Feiyang was obviously satisfied with IGN's score, and then sent a warm-up trailer, and almost at the same time, mafia propaganda articles and videos appeared on various game websites, and some streamers also got copies of mafia and started live playing.

Only then did Liu Xi remember what he had forgotten.

It turned out that I forgot about the propaganda link!

She slapped her head and took out her phone in a bit of confusion.

"Hey, Qian Kun."

She didn't wait for Qian Kun over there to speak, and directly gave an order: "Find a few anchors and let them experience Stardew Valley for publicity." ”

"We're already doing this, but there's no big anchor willing to broadcast it, and we can't afford it."

"Huh? Isn't it normal for streamers to play new games? Why don't you give money and don't broadcast it? ”

"Let them do publicity, they must give money, and there are a few websites that are not willing to give layout publicity, so they give some publicity to Tencent and 4DM's game websites."

Liu Xi on the hospital bed had a dark face, and she recalled the money in her bank card...... It's only a few thousand.

Before, she was glad that she had enough money this month, but now she suddenly realized that it is not enough to just make the game, no matter how fun it is, because players don't know that this game exists.

"What are the sales of Steam and Wegaem right now?"

"Steam sells 2120 today, the praise rate is good, it has reached 80 percent, and the sales of Wegaem are higher, but it is only about 3,000."

This sales volume is not bad in Liu Xi's opinion, but in fact, if Lin Feiyang didn't bring Stardew Valley by the way when he rubbed the hot spots, then the sales would be half of what they are now.

Although Lin Feiyang basically made domestic players think that Stardew Valley is a garbage game when he posted it on Weibo, I have to say that there is still a little bit of publicity effect.

But it's not enough.

It's obviously a good game.

"So boss, you really can't get a penny out there?"

Qian Kun is now about to become the operation of the studio, and he asked Liu Xi for money before, but Liu Xi refused directly without even listening to the reason.

"Can you still get one or two thousand......," she said, moving her butt from the hospital bed, with an embarrassed face, "Is this money enough to buy a page or a propaganda article?" ”

"I'm afraid it's enough."

She sighed, looked around the ward, and did not find Liu Shu and Wang Chang, but Chen Sheng, who was in the bed next door, greeted Liu Xi again.

"What are you looking at?"

The tone is cold, and people who don't know are afraid that they still think that he is finding fault.

It's already evening now, and Liu Shu, the elder brother, has already taken the computer home for dinner, and he has to cover up Liu Xi's injury casually, after all, this is related to Wang Chang's face.

Wang Chang is so stupid that he makes Liu Xi hurt, he must not let his parents know, and when the time comes, he will directly excuse Wang Chang and Liu Xi to go out on a date, and his parents should not have any opinions.

After all, the parents are quite satisfied with Wang Chang, the "future son-in-law".

And Wang Chang was buying food for Liu Xi outside at this time, and Liu Xi couldn't find anyone even if he wanted to borrow money from them now.

So she sighed into the other end of the phone and said, "Then let's wait until tomorrow, promote something, try to find a free anchor, right?" The little anchor is fine. ”

"Then I'll try."

Qian Kun smiled bitterly, and then Liu Xi hung up the phone.

Speaking of which, due to the addition of two bigwigs to the studio, Qian Kun and the three of them are now almost ready to start.

When I was making games before, Qian Kun, the guy with the worst programming talent, was responsible for communicating with the outsourcing and Liu Xi, and the remaining two guys were responsible for fixing bugs and the other was responsible for filling in the game.

Now that the game is done, Qian Kun has become the operator, Xie Bin is fixing bugs, and the most farfarthed person is talented in programming, so he is now assisting the two bigwigs to do the work of porting the switch.

If there are no accidents, it will be ported in a month, followed by bug fixes and Nintendo's release, and it will take about two months for Stardew Valley to be available on consoles.

Liu Xi still wants to make the multiplayer mode as soon as possible, but looking at the busyness of this group of people now, Liu Xi feels that there should be nothing possible in the near future.

On the first day of Stardew Valley, there was no skyrocketing sales that Liu Xi expected, but it had already experienced a blow when it was put on the shelves for early access before, and Liu Xi did not feel frustrated.

After all, the impression of domestic players on Stardew Valley is not very good now, but in the coming days, a small number of players who have already purchased the game will gradually speak out, and when the reputation among players rises, the big sales of the game should be no problem.

It's just that whether the sales volume in the first month can surpass the mafia, that is to look at the publicity, if the propaganda is not good, then I am afraid that the mafia will not be able to beat it at all.

Liu Xi sighed, lay down, and looked at his phone worriedly.

The mafia hasn't been released yet, and the Internet is full of news about the mafia.

What is the sequel to the spirit of Metal Slug, the best 2D game in China, the person in charge of Sony Continent praised it after playing it......

It was blown as if it was real, and Liu Xi even doubted whether Lin Feiyang had seen the person in charge of the continent, and the best game, and he didn't know who rated it.

When Stardew Valley advertised, it was going to be said to be the best ranch game in China? G Fat and Ma Huateng praised after playing?

Well, no one in China has produced this type of stand-alone game, of course, it's the best.
