After the launch, the demo hall prepared next door quickly became full.

This time, if you want to try the game first, you don't have to wait in line, a numbering device is placed at the entrance, and players only need to get the serial number to wait in line, you can go around, and you can hear the intelligent broadcast in the hall and sit down.

There are 100 devices in the trial hall that can provide a trial, and the time for each trial is 15 minutes, and if you still want to play after the time, you can go back to get the number, and the trial hall will be open to players until 18 o'clock today.

In addition to a large number of players, reporters from various media also came to the trial hall to shoot.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire lobby is extremely hot, and players are all happy, and the games currently available for trial experience include "The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings", "Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood", "GTA: The Merry Tony Song", "Minecraft", and "Call of Duty: Black Ops".

Only after experiencing it in person did players realize the power of this next-generation console, and the leap in picture quality brought by 4K rendering technology is the most intuitive visual impact for every player.

Human beings are creatures who like the new and hate the old, and when they have used better things, they have subconsciously resisted the things that they used to think were good, and there is always a hurdle in the psychology of wanting to use them again.

Especially for gaming enthusiasts, this effect is magnified tenfold.

With the demo lobby closing on the day, all players reluctantly left the press conference, and it was very uncomfortable to think that it would take nearly three months for the ACC console to be released.

By the next day, the domestic version of Bluestar Video and the international version of BV Video were flooded with a large number of videos of the trial lobby during the Cologne press conference, some of which were shot by game media and some by players with Azure-3.

The discussion on the Reddit forum has also been high, and the keyword ACC has also been on the Google search entry, and its popularity is so high that almost the entire game industry is discussing it.

All of a sudden, the phrase "I can't buy an ACC console, I'm dying" spread quickly in the console player community and became a new meme that overseas players are happy to play.

Foreigners are also very good at playing stalks, just like as long as you are stared at by G's fat smile, you can suck up the gifs of your wallet.

In the past five years, the Steam platform under the V Society has grown up, after all, it has been raised by Bluestar Technology Group as its own son for many years, and various social entrances have flown up, and it is difficult for the Steam platform to take off.

Luo Sheng's promise to G Fat back then is getting closer and closer to the day when it will be realized, that is, he hopes that Steam players can be all over the world, even Antarctica.

The major player communities in China are also hotly discussed, but the focus of the discussion revolves around the fact that ACC consoles are not available in Greater China.

"Why is this happening?"

"Nima, it is really funny that the ACC host is a product launched by a domestic company but cannot be sold and listed in the mainland."

"The previous media boasted all kinds of game console sales bans, which is really a pit!"

"It's so heart-wrenching."

"You really don't understand the archbishop's good intentions, this is saving money for the majority of mainland players, let's see you in piracy...... [Erha]"

"To be reasonable, it's a bit surprising to learn such news, but it's also reasonable, not to mention the Plus version of the 699 knife about 4767 oceans, are you willing to spend 299 dollars about 2000 oceans to buy a standard ACC host? And then the game inside, the 3A masterpiece is about 409 yuan to buy a game by 60 knives? ”

"Also, there are so many free games on the PC side, even if there is no problem at the level of the ban on the sale of game consoles, it is estimated that the archbishop will be cautious in opening up the mainland market, and it is not even possible to recover the investment in channel fees."

"Isn't there a future for domestic console games?"

"Combine 'can' with '?' Removed, there is no future, even if there is a future, it is almost impossible to see when the future is, I dare to say that 99% of players in the country will never be willing to pay more than 400 yuan to buy a stand-alone game, even if it can be connected to the Internet. ”

"Agreed, let's get the pirated environment done first, and then we can download pirated stand-alone games by searching a few websites casually, who would talk about so much 'wronged' money, right?"

"The fairy sword has to be resisted~~ I must buy it next time...... [laughs and cries]"

"It can only be said that the water in here is too deep for even the archbishop to dare to step in easily."

……

All of a sudden, public opinion in the mainland game industry, both players and game media, are discussing the environment of domestic stand-alone games and console markets, and some media even make headlines claiming: domestic stand-alone games are dead.

This time, the ACC console is not sold in Greater China, but it is sold globally, although everyone understands that because the embargo on game consoles is not lifted, it cannot be released in the mainland.

But when such a thing happens, it really hit the hearts of a group of practitioners who insist on developing domestic stand-alone games, and the pessimism is becoming more and more obvious in them.

How much they hope that Luo Sheng can vigorously reshape the entire industry in the field of e-sports, and also turn the tide in the domestic stand-alone game industry, but they didn't expect the result to be like this, not pessimistic but abnormal.

In fact, Luo Sheng also thought, but even if he is the richest man in the world, he is not an omnipotent existence, and it is impossible to solve all the problems by himself.

Reversing domestic players' habits of playing free games and cleaning up the online piracy environment is beyond what he should do as an entrepreneur, which is what the state should do.

Even if you do, it's a very laborious and basically thankless thing.

When I first entered the e-sports industry and reshaped the industry, I was sprayed, especially in the eyes of parents, and it left an extremely bad impression.

Luo Sheng didn't want to do it again, otherwise he would have to be pushed to the forefront of public opinion, although he could afford it, it was no big deal.

But no one wants the news to be full of negative public opinion.

Well, these can be ignored, bear it, and then what? The result?

The result must be that the cost of investing in it will not be recovered, and the ACC console will definitely not be able to sell a few units, and the 3A-level game masterpiece will not be able to sell a few sets, and the third-party developers are not even willing to invest a little cost in the localization work, because they have also given up the Greater China market.

Moreover, the attitude of the top international manufacturers towards the Greater China market is generally to learn from Microsoft, just like the Windows operating system, turning a blind eye and allowing piracy to run rampant in the Greater China market.

There are certain benefits to this, but it takes too long to receive such benefits, and many companies wait and die before they die, and only the top third-party game developers with strong strength can play like this.

The advantage is that after ten or twenty years, it is possible to make a fortune by feelings.

After all, although the game is a pirated version, it has also accompanied the growth of a generation of players, and the mainland console gamer group should not be underestimated.

It's just that this kind of risk is too big and too big, and there is a high probability that the company has not waited until it is dead.

After all, there is also only one "Polish stupid donkey" in this world.
