The news that Red Dead Redemption is about to launch an Early Access Edition is undoubtedly very exciting for players who want to wear it.

It doesn't even need much publicity.

This matter has already attracted the attention of a large number of players.

The number of reservations, which was originally 3 million, skyrocketed to more than 7 million!

Meantime.

Manufacturers who have been paying attention to industry trends naturally learned of the news quickly and discussed it for a while.

This also includes two giant giants.

"The early version was launched in advance, and it was sold at half price, and Hong Huang was a little too confident in his follow-up production."

Director Juqing said in surprise.

"They're killing themselves!"

Carter smiled disdainfully: "I thought they would pose a threat to us, but I didn't expect to make such a stupid decision, it seems that we were overthinking." ”

"Indeed." The director of Juqing agreed, "Before the final product of the game came out, even we didn't dare to guarantee the follow-up quality, they even sold the semi-finished product directly, and sold it at such a high price, it is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers." ”

"I think there will be a lot of people who will stand up for us this time without us having to do it."

Carter tapped lightly on the tabletop, his eyes focused.

In the past few days, they have been sending people to secretly contact the Honghuang employees, trying to poach those core members.

But it turned out to be.

The loyalty of Honghuang employees is far beyond imagination.

It took a lot of time and money to dig up only one core member and a few inconsequential peripheral members.

Let them completely dismantle the plan of the flood from within.

originally thought that it would be more troublesome to deal with in the future, but unexpectedly, Hong Huang died by himself and made this pre-sale of the pre-emptive version.

Don't they know that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment?

Red Dead Redemption has been raised to the highest level of anticipation, and if the follow-up content doesn't live up to expectations, the consequences will be severe.

He didn't think that Hong Huang would be able to maintain the quality of the demo version all the time.

As Carter thought.

There are boasts in the early version of the online flood, and naturally there are also scolding.

As soon as the announcement was issued half an hour, a large number of people said that the flood was black-hearted, and the early version dared to charge half the price.

There are even people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make money and run away, which abounds.

It's no longer clear whether it's a player or a botch sent by the manufacturer.

Among them, the one with the most likes was put on the top of the homepage.

[The snail riding the turtle: I am a pure passerby, there is one thing to say, this game is not as godly as you say, although it is well-made, but there is also a point that many people overlook, that is, openness. 】

[As an open-world game, the quality of "Red Dead Redemption" is really nothing to say, but the whole trial process gives me the feeling that there is no sense of openness at all, but more like a semi-open movie game, and most of the shots are based on the cinematic perspective. 】

[Without independent exploration, this is obviously contrary to the open world, and what is the difference between it and those role-playing games that do the main line all the way?] Therefore, please follow the trend rationally, don't blindly enter the pit, and save money in vain. 】

After a paragraph, hundreds of words were sprinkled.

It can be seen that it is a careful study of the game trial before the flood famine, and it is also the comment with the highest praise at present.

Click on the reply at the bottom to take a look.

There are pros and cons.

People on both sides actually quarreled directly in the comment area, and the quarrel was hundreds of floors.

But I have to say that this comment did have a slight impact on the game, making players who are running for the open world hesitate.

I don't know if I should get this game.

After all, an early version costs more than a hundred.

But the strange thing is that the players on both sides quarreled, but Hong Huang did not respond, as if he had acquiesced in the matter.

Could it be said.

Is this game really just rubbing the edge of the open world?

Players can't help but have doubts in their hearts, hesitating whether to wait and see before starting.

"A bunch of idiots, this is called lowering expectations!"

Higashiyamaju headquarters.

Zheng Qian smiled at the corner of his mouth, and explained the reason why Hong Huang did not respond.

He knows very well that the problem that Hong Huang is facing now is not that the heat is not enough, but that the heat is too high!

The public trial of the First World War made the whole Internet praise the game, and the expectations of players will naturally be pulled higher and higher, like a tight string.

If the subsequent content of the game does not meet expectations, or even is only a little weaker than the demo version, this string may be broken.

So the most important thing for Hong Huang to do now is to let them go black as much as they want and lower the psychological expectations of players.

"Even such a subtle place can be noticed, this Mr. Chen is really not an ordinary person."

Zheng Qian sat in front of the computer, both amazed and emotional.

If it were him, I am afraid that he would have lost himself long ago when he encountered such a sudden explosion.

Such characters, fortunately, are not their enemies.

Otherwise, sooner or later you will be killed.

Fortunately, the friendly relationship between the two companies allowed their online games to be launched smoothly, and even the number of online users far exceeded expectations.

I have to say that it is really a blessing of the famine.

That's it.

This upsurge of controversy has lasted for nearly half a month, driven by people with good intentions.

During this period, Hong Huang updated three episodes of the "Westworld" TV series.

Add another fire to this heat.

Whether Red Dead Redemption is an open-world game or not has become the most discussed topic among players.

But no matter how much they argue, the topic will come to an end today.

Because the day of the early access is today.

"Hurry, hurry! The early version will be launched at 12 noon! ”

"Is the train shootout finally coming?"

"GKD, I can't wait."

"There are even people who say that it's not an open world and doesn't play."

"What if it's not an open world with a group of rhythmic critics? I don't have a brain for the quality of the game alone! ”

"Anyway, I'm already planning to buy it, let's come to the live broadcast room first, and then play by myself when I get home."

Station b, in the old E live broadcast room.

The barrage is still the same as usual, lively and lively.

As a veteran lover of gun games.

Lao E naturally won't miss this awesome game, and he waited in front of the computer early.

He didn't even notice that his arm on the mouse keyboard was trembling slightly, looking a little excited.

He didn't watch the previous trial livestream.

But he watched the video.

With his vision for many years of gunplay games, you can see at a glance that this Red Dead Redemption is different, and it is by no means as simple as an ordinary role-playing game.

"It's on! The game is on! ”

With a barrage crossing, 12 noon arrived.

Old E's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly refreshed the page that had been prepared a long time ago, and sure enough, a game appeared in front of him.

[Game: Red Dead Redemption]

[Synopsis: The game tells the legendary story of Arthur Morgan and the infamous Van der Linde Gang, and experiences a journey through the last years of the 19th century.] 】

[Genre: Open World, Drama, Western, Adventure, Action]

[Price: 185 (50%)]

"Half price 185, full price is 370, this price is a little expensive."

Old E took a deep breath and the first thing he saw was the price of the game.

This price is almost enough for him to buy another copy of Resident Evil.

"Expensive? You don't look at the cinematic images. ”

"It's really expensive for a normal game, but on this game, all I can say is that it's too cheap!"

"Indeed, if there is a quality of the trial version in the follow-up, it will not be high to sell 500."

"I'm afraid you haven't seen a single card draw without 648 hairs."

"At first glance, I know that this game has a lot of investment, and I'm a little worried that Honghuang won't be able to return to this price if it is sold."

The bigger the game, the more money you invest, and the more ruthless you lose money.

This is also the reason why many manufacturers obviously have the strength, but they dare not easily make large-scale games.

Because they're not sure if they can catch fire.

Once you can't get back to your capital, it's not as simple as hundreds of millions.

"Well, the price is really low compared to the quality of the game."

In front of the camera, Lao E didn't bother too much, and directly chose to buy.

After downloading, I can't wait to enter the game.

The audience, which was originally very lively, also became attentive.

Swish!

The light lit up.

A familiar picture emerges, and a snow-covered valley comes into view.

The eyes of the old E with the headphones widened, and his expression was the same as when Applejack and the others tried the game.

"I'll go! The sound is great, the picture is stronger than watching the live broadcast, and you can switch the first-person perspective! ”

In the live broadcast room, Lao E shouted, looked left and right, and was so excited that he was about to get up from his seat.

Finally, he recovered from the shock and continued to move forward.

Because I watched the trial, it was very smooth along the way.

In about ten minutes, I arrived at the hiding place of the rival gang and experienced the gunplay gameplay of the game.

"Yes, yes, the firearms are smoother than I expected, and the surrounding snow environment is simply amazing."

After solving the enemy, Lao E was full of praise for this game and couldn't find any fault.

If you have to say that there is something wrong, maybe it is only the one that is said on the Internet, which is not open enough.

With this doubt in mind, he immediately sped up.

Scavenge for supplies, climb snowy mountains to rescue members, exterminate wolves, attack hostile gang positions, hunt and collect food.

After spending more than an hour and getting through one plot point after another, he finally caught up with the live demo and rode with his companions to the place where the train tracks passed.

"It's coming! The plot of the bombing of the railroad tracks is coming! ”

"I saw it stop here last time, and I finally got it."

"Have you noticed that it's been an hour and a half, and the first chapter isn't over yet."

"! It seems to be true! ”

"A chapter that's more than an hour and a half long?"

"Isn't the second chapter going to start in three hours!?"

Suddenly, the audience discovered this critical issue and exclaimed one by one.

They originally thought that the content of the two chapters released by Hong Huang this time would be like this for two hours.

But now that the two hours are almost up, the content of the first chapter is not over, and the richness is far beyond their imagination.

"This game is really awesome, so I can't tell whether it's real-time calculation or cutscene CG."

Old E is riding a horse and running in the snow with a gang team, and it looks like a cutscene CG-like rush picture, but he can still control the character.

It's a wonderful experience of manipulating movie characters.

"Eh~ I'm jumping here. I'll jump again. Do you guys look at me handsome? ”

The old E who discovered this new way of playing, was addicted to playing and playing, and rode around while he was in a hurry during the cutscene, and he didn't follow the team well at all.

As soon as the words fell, he crashed headlong into a tree on the side of the road.

Bang!

The screen is red.

He threw straight off the horse.

As a result, the horse ran away, and he was still standing still, and the other members of the group also rode away on horseback.

"Hey! Ay! Wait! My horse is gone! ”

Old E shouted again and again, and the controlling character chased after him, running on the snow on two legs.

The audience who saw this scene instantly burst into laughter.

Makes you scream.

The horse is gone, see how you continue the plot.

"This doesn't count, let's do it all over again."

Seeing that the team ran away and the mission failed, Lao E suddenly became a lot more honest, started to rush again, and obediently followed the team all the way.

Finally, a few minutes later, I came to the familiar hillside and saw the train tracks passing by.

All the player has to do is help install the explosives under the rails.

"Wow! Really want to blow up the rails? ”

The audience's hearts were shocked, and the spirit came instantly.

They don't dare to think of this kind of thing in reality, but in this chaotic Westworld, it is very normal.

Let them feel like they're letting themselves go.

Yes.

As they played, they began to understand the core of the game.

That is freedom.

Spiritual freedom!

The wilderness seems to be explaining the true meaning of the open world to them from another angle!
