Chapter Ninety-Eight: I'm Lost
Not to mention how Luo Bai was complained by Mr. Xiao afterwards, but the announcement of "Hollow Knight" still took advantage of Luo Bai's "twists and turns" appearance at the Xiaopo Station Carnival, and it blew out first.
"Luo Bai's operation", "the new work of the original heart", "Quasi-Olympic Day".
These three labels can attract countless attention just by typing them out.
But in fact, the popularity of the hollow knight has not reached the point that Xiao Weirui imagined.
Why...... The heat of the Hollow Knight was all sucked away by Mr. Luo himself.
At that time, as long as you open Xiaopo Station, the video with the highest number of views in the game section is the whole process of Mr. Luo running away and then being put on the ground by the big man, and then being put on the stage by the big guy.
"Let this force not to do mirrorDLC! Retribution! ”
"Who shouted that let go of my father? Filial piety to death. ”
"The questions you guys are asking are too conservative, if you let me go up, I'll ask Mr. Luo directly if he has any ideas for making new butter."
Of course, in addition to the barrage of fun, there is also a part of the yin and yang weirdness of "understanding brother".
"It's just pure hype, just promoting a new game, and you know it."
"Do you really think that the owner of a game company will wear a COS costume to visit the exhibition? Isn't the Haitian feast much more fun than the wall-breaking comic exhibition? It's hard to make money. ”
"It's not interesting, it's just an arranged script, and there are so many of them under this stage."
There is no doubt that such a "brother who understands" will be scolded.
"Even if it's a way to promote the game, we're having a lot of fun watching it, and you're yelling here?"
"Do you see that there are many company bosses in China who can put down their bodies like Mr. Luo?"
"You can get out, don't show off your poor IQ there, just like Nima's imbecile, did Nima leave a placenta when she gave birth to you? Go out and be careful to be hit by a mud truck 4. ”
Leave the discussion in the game area aside.
When you pull it to the ghost animal area, you will find that the top five on the list are all ghost animals related to Luo Bai.
For example, the No. 1 "Mission Impossible X Luo Bai Sneak In"
Originally, the protagonist in the game was directly replaced with Luo Bai's face, and through the cutting of video and audio, it really made these sand sculpture netizens have a different fun.
And the barrage environment here is obviously much better than next door.
The barrage is brushed with:
"As we all know, videos can't be ps, so videos are real."
"Congratulations to Mr. Luo for joining the ghost animal all-star!"
"Laughing to death, my identity was pierced and I wanted to run, but it was okay to be pressed to the ground directly by my eldest brother."
In addition, some people directly integrated Luo Bai's voice pack, and began to adapt and cover some classic old songs, which also had a good playback.
When Xiao Weirui reported the news to Luo Bai, Luo Bai admitted that he was confused.
When will I, Lo, deserve the treatment of Rebus? I'm just making games.
Everyone's attention to the Hollow Knight! Don't you guys say you guys don't have enough of Ori on weekdays? Didn't you say that you want me to make a new work?
The Hollow Knight is even more fun than Ori in terms of combat, and you guys don't pay attention to it?
"Mr. Luo, next time there is such a self-assertive thing, I still hope you will discuss it with me in advance.
Although I also know that the profit of our original intention is very high, the cost of such a thing is definitely as little as possible. ”
Facing Xiao Weirui's eyes, Luo Bai could only smile awkwardly:
"Definitely, definitely."
It's hard to top, it's okay if it's really real by netizens in the ghost animal area, and the hollow knight hasn't publicized it, I'm lost.
……
Throughout August, except for the Xiaopo Station Carnival held in the magic capital at the beginning of the month, Chuxin's only movement was to go overseas and get a few more awards.
Of course, Luo Bai himself didn't go, he asked people to get it for him.
This is not surprising, for Ori, who has already won the TGA Game of the Year, not winning the award is not a loss for Ori, but a loss for those other awards.
The sales of the Dark Dungeon successfully broke through the 200w mark, and it can be regarded as setting off a certain amount of popularity overseas.
Many media outlets that didn't pay attention to this game also began to try out the game, and gave quite a weighty score.
Overall, the situation is very good.
Of course, the most important thing for the current original intention is the development of "Hollow Knight" at hand.
Two months have passed, and the development of the hollow has officially entered the agenda.
The progress is not bad either.
At that time, Luo Bai's office.
"You...... Communiqué personal vendetta! Son of Man in vain! ”
Pu Xingyu lay on the table, tired like a dead dog.
Luo Bai's expression did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh a little, he asked lightly:
"Tell me about the recent development progress."
Pu Xingyu's waist pole has been, and the color is right:
"At present, the overall game framework has been determined, and the technical trouble encountered is mainly due to the fact that the little knight's action system is still relatively stiff, and it needs to be more detailed polished by the attack special effects team.
There are still big bugs in the connection between Dertmouth and the Green Path of the two maps that have been made so far.
In terms of the action design of monsters, it is also relatively rigid, and further debugging is needed......"
Luo Bai nodded slightly to show understanding:
"By the way, how did the first promo video go?"
"The art team has given several plans, and now I'm waiting for Brother Luo to make a decision."
Luo Bai raised his chin slightly, blinked his eyes and calculated the progress in his heart, and after making sure that this was in line with his own development plan for the hollow, he finally smiled and nodded with satisfaction:
"Well done."
"Whew!"
Pu Xingyu was lying on the table like a corpse again,
"Brother Luo, can you give me a vacation?"
"I want to take a vacation and ask for a leave of absence by myself, but I never remember that I said that I would not let you take a holiday."
Luo Bai leaned back on the sofa chair behind him, humming a small tune comfortably.
Pu Xingyu raised his tired face and muttered:
"I'm not talking about the kind of vacation! Brother Luo, I was wrong, please forgive me!
I've been really stressed lately, and I'm being asked what to do with this thing every day, how do I know what to do?
I'm just a mortal, okay...... You can't ask me for that pervert of yours. ”
"Okay."
Pu Xingyu, who was still chattering, immediately became happy:
"Hooray!"
Seeing Luo Bai's middle finger for him, he didn't care, and Pu Xingyu happily pushed the door and went out.
Luo Bai just smiled.
At present, the technical problems encountered by the team cannot be solved by Pu Xingyu, even if Pu Xingyu doesn't say it, he will go out on his own next.
However, I still decided on the idea of making a promotional video.
September 3rd.
The first PV of "Hollow Knight" was launched simultaneously on the whole network.
