Chapter 273: The heat has been robbed
The game of Azure finally bid farewell to the super high popularity at the time of release, and gradually ushered in a period of calm.
However, it is precisely because of the high difficulty that Rao is "the original boutique." Must be a boutique", which only allowed it to break through the threshold of 2 million sales in one month.
Compared with the input, it must be a lot of money, but compared to the huge ratio between all the inputs and outputs at the beginning of the game, Azure still inevitably attracted a burst of criticism.
But this kind of criticism will soon be suppressed by the extremely powerful Azure players.
"After all, the difficulty of Azure is here, and it's too unfair for you to compare that kind of commercial work with Azure anymore."
"Azure still likes it very much, but let's wait for the discount to enter again, I always feel that the original price will be in the game library."
"Teal itself isn't the kind of game for everyone, so what's not to be satisfied with with this sales?
That is, all the games that Mr. Luo has played before are too good to play. ”
However, none of this has anything to do with Luo Bai.
The game is made, and the game developer can do.
In addition to fixing bugs and daily maintenance work, the rest is to greatly reduce sales and do some activities on some special days.
Every game that comes into the hands of the player is their own wealth.
He's got a lot of games lined up right now.
After accepting the report from the chief housekeeper Xiao Weirui, Luo Bai signed what he should sign, and took the idea when he should have an idea.
It was a phone call from Tang Yunpeng that made his step-by-step work ripple a little.
"Mr. Luo, the production of the game is almost over, and the rest is optimization."
Luo Bai understood what Lao Tang meant, and the project of "Cyber Liaozhai" has officially reached the point of seeing the real chapter.
But the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, so I can't play this aspect of the hard work for almost four years, and I pulled my crotch in the publicity and distribution, right?
Old Tang smiled a little narrowly, but Luo Bai knew that he just wanted him to help stand on the platform.
Another great success of the blue is undoubtedly a continuation of its own mythology.
Even the commercially flawed Wanda and Colossus have won world-class praise for their leadership of the entire game industry and the artistry of the game.
If there is a platform for him, let's not talk about the criticism that may be reduced.
Very intuitively, just for the sales of a boost, is unprecedentedly large.
But this kind of thing is actually not easy to talk about.
It's hard to say whether a game can be welcomed by players when it goes on the market.
Game quality isn't the only metric that matters.
Generally speaking, there are very few game developers of Luo Bai's level in the industry to give a game platform.
After all, there is no good in predicting this kind of thing, and if it is praised, it will be discredited.
"Old Tang, what's so embarrassing about this? I also followed the game all the way, and I also know the quality of the game, it is gold that shines wherever it goes.
There's no reason why I shouldn't give you a platform.
However, whether it is the theme of Liaozhai or the 'cyber' world you have built, will there be foreign players who will buy it?
This is still an unknown.
In case you encounter any Waterloo in the end, don't be in a hurry to be discouraged, anyway, the door of the original heart is open for you at any time. ”
Although Luo Bai himself is indeed very confident in the game made by Lao Tang.
After all, it is able to make him, a perennial electronic ED guy, also play a game for more than ten hours without stopping.
I have to say that Luo Bai also knows in his heart that after all these years of following the system, it is true that you say that with the growth of capabilities, you will become less dependent on the system.
But the system will always be the biggest ballast stone in Luo Bai's heart.
All the games that Chuxin has done so far are all games that have been tested by the market in their previous lives and killed in the reputation of players.
"Cyber Liaozhai" this time is the first time.
It is the hard work of him, Lao Tang, Lao Zou, and the entire production team of "Cyber Liaozhai", and countless game developers.
It's really true in my heart, it's completely fake.
But for the sake of his own late season, he completely ignored it, and Luo Bai couldn't do it.
The psychology of gain and loss in his heart is not so strong.
It's just that on the other end of the phone, Old Tang hasn't spoken yet, but he heard a familiar voice.
"Mr. Luo, this game hasn't been promoted yet, and you're looking forward to the death of the game to dig me, which isn't very kind."
Luo Bai just hooked the corners of his mouth:
"Ma Dong, you also know that I have always been worried about victory before defeat, and I only want to be careful in everything."
"Mr. Luo, don't pretend to be a little sheep in front of me, how can you be careful about everything when you looked like you back then?"
"Isn't that Ma Dong's methods too superb, and I can only fight with my life?"
It's quite interesting to chat with Ma Bin.
The two touted each other on the phone for a while, and Luo Bai also got down to business:
"How, how big is Ma Dong going to play this time?"
How much money can Tianxing invest in the promotion of "Cyber Liaozhai" this time, Luo Bai is also very curious.
"Do your best."
Ma Bin's fluttering words made Luo Bai raise his eyebrows.
As we all know, the main revenue projects of many domestic manufacturers such as Tianxing are mobile games and online games.
According to Ma Bin's idea, if there is a fund of the scale of mobile games to promote online games, the scene will be over, and Luo Bai has really never seen this face.
"Playing so big?"
Luo Bai was a little amazed.
"I want to go crazy before I retire."
Ma Bin chuckled and said,
"What's more, you dare to play this undefeated myth, why don't I dare?"
Before you retire......
Luo Bai squinted his eyes slightly, so much time had passed all of a sudden.
After being silent for a moment, Luo Bai also gave a brief hum:
"In the field of stand-alone, Tianxing hasn't played it yet.
I don't recommend Tianxing to promote "Cyber Liaozhai" like a mobile game, so it makes too much noise.
You must know that excessive publicity will definitely lead to the disgust of stand-alone playing machines.
You also know that the game despises the chain, and the publicity is too ruthless, which will make a considerable number of players unwilling to even try it.
The most important thing in promoting stand-alone games is to start from the aspect of word-of-mouth, and guide players through word of mouth......"
Ma Bin didn't say a word.
In this regard, Luo Bai is an expert, and it can be said that there is no one in the entire Yan Country who understands this thing better than Luo Bai.
He just listened patiently, and from time to time he looked at Tang Yunpeng on the side and motioned for him to take notes.
Tang Yunpeng also had a dignified face, whether he lived or died, it depended on this battle.
Speaking of Xingtou here, Luo Bai was also a little unsatisfied, and then said with some pity:
"Actually, it would be better to warm up early and put something that everyone is interested in.
As long as the quality of the game is passed, with the elements of the Chinese style, it will definitely be able to set off a wave of discussion.
Not to mention that it will make everyone look forward to it, but at least it will give everyone the impression that "this game exists".
This game is about to be released, and when I think about publicity, whether it is the fermentation of word-of-mouth, or the communication effect, it is almost bad. ”
Here Ma Bin just wanted to say, "Why didn't you say it earlier", but Luo Bai over there was a fast patch:
"It's not very good, the pure fraud work of "Cyber Fengshen" before, I don't know if the player is interested in the game when it is released, and it will definitely usher in a group of ridicule.
In such a situation, if it drags on for a year and a half, the game will be scrapped directly......
In this way, the optimization was completed within half a year, and half a year was just right.
You can also buy some water army to spray directly, and try to stand on the opposite side of ordinary players to promote it in reverse.
The game will be released within half a year, and the quality of the game will directly make most people have nothing to say, and the word-of-mouth counterattack will directly set off a wave of popularity......"
Listening to Luo Bai's muttering, Tang Yunpeng's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Why do you have this kind of operation?
Ma Bin is looking at the nose and the nose and the heart.
When the original game has not yet formed a fan effect, Luo Bai's means of publicizing the game are really imaginative.
Tianxing was the worst one to be touched at that time.
It's just that the fan effect was formed later, and after the word-of-mouth was done, it converged.
I didn't expect my mind to be so dirty now.
Bah! Disgusting!
Oh, announce your own game, that's fine, come more.
After Luo Bai and Lao Tang combined here, Tianxing's movements were also very fast.
It took almost a week for a promo video to be eye-catching.
On June 17, 2041, the first promotional film "Taoist Priest" of "Cyber Liaozhai" was officially unveiled!
……
Spacious, bright, and covered with neon lights, but filled with all kinds of moire, immortal seals, altars, and the like.
Just the first moment of the appearance left a deep impression on all the viewers who watched this video.
It looks extraordinarily weird, but it is full of a strange harmony.
"Master, I want to go to the outside world."
The sound of a young monologue resounded in the background, but then, a slightly vicissitudes of life sounded with a bit of hatred:
"The outside world? Ah Fei, it's normal to have such thoughts at your age, but when you are older, you will understand the master's good intentions.
Huoyun Palace, do you know how many people outside are so crowded that they can't find a way to come here? ”
The reality of this dialogue is a bit scary, and even makes every player who has just heard this dialogue feel a sense of disgust.
But this scene lasted for a short time, and soon, the voice of the master came to my ears again.
"Hurry up, Ah Fei, it's a mission!"
The handsome boy who hurriedly took off the interface on the back of his head finally revealed his true face, and he put on a robe that shimmered with light and shadow.
Following a figure like a celestial master, he finally stopped in front of a huge shuttle.
But when the Heavenly Master turned his head, nearly 70% of the prosthetic characters on his body still made the players swallow the words "Immortal Wind Dao Bone" into their stomachs.
The suspended virtual array disk is eye-catching, and the shuttle accelerates in an instant, jumping out of the orbit with a beautiful blue arc.
At this moment, the picture pulls from a close-up to a distant view.
At the hole of a huge three-legged Dan furnace, dense shuttles flew out, cutting through a wonderful arc.
Swooping down towards the innumerable dense array of "steel jungles" beneath the Dan Furnace.
In the final composition, the whole world is divided into two halves, with the Dan furnace as the boundary.
The world below, cold, disorderly, fearful, rich and colorful.
The world above, spacious, bright, civilized and natural, is a glimpse of it.
On this floor of the Dan furnace, there are countless strange buildings like the Dan furnace......
The CG ends, and the game officially enters the actual demo interface.
The whole thing in front of me is only three square meters, and it can only put down a bed, and all the space is highly condensed in a small room.
On the bed, there was a body that was trembling and depressed.
The various UIs present on the interface are eye-catching and distinct.
The protagonist, Ah Fei, swayed towards the body in front of him and sat cross-legged in front of him.
In the lower right corner of the UI, various array disks are constantly switching.
Each time they switch, the protagonist places a strangely shaped signal receiver on the ground.
Each time a new signal receiving device is placed, different special light spots will flash between the devices, and finally a magical formation will be constructed.
The whole process happens very quickly, and wait until all the preparations are completed.
When the USB long sword in his hand is inserted into the terminal in front of the bed, accompanied by the green transmission effect, the picture in front of him flashes away from the cramped room, and then comes to a special world constructed by countless 0s and 1s.
And in front of him, in the cutscene, the monster shows off his might towards the protagonist.
Behind the robes, the formation pattern shines brightly, and on the right side of the screen, a new set of skill columns appears.
As can be seen from the demonstration, these monsters that exist in the virtual have their own corresponding five element attributes, and according to the difference in the array, different skill bars can also be opened.
Defeat the monsters.
Defeated by monsters.
The protagonist is alone in a flying shuttle but is attacked from behind and begins a realistic battle.
The powerful effects of various prostheses, cornices and walls, bullet time......
The entire eight-minute video duration is half of the CG demonstration.
But they all came up with enough dry goods.
"Dual combat system? No, I haven't figured out a set of combat systems, so let's get two sets? Happy.
I'm not afraid of getting an egg when I take such a big step, I'm sorry. ”
"This game feels a little interesting, at least this art is already poking me very much.
Moreover, with a wave of your hand, you can summon a long river made of virtual numbers to wash away monsters, so it's super handsome, okay? ”
"This is "Cyber Liaozhai" that has not moved at all for several years? It feels like a scam, and after the game comes out, wait and see before you think about whether to buy it. ”
"Cyber Gods back then was a complete hoax, and this thing is no exception."
It's the same here, too, and the popularity of the game hasn't gotten up yet, so it's starting to release some more radical boycott remarks.
But the more embarrassing thing is that the situation did not quarrel among the domestic player groups as expected, and even launched follow-up propaganda actions.
On the contrary, no one paid attention to the promotional video.
Because, the new work of the foreign manufacturer BIG BONG, "Stars" has already shocked us!
In an instant, the entire game circle was involved!
Thank you for the monthly ticket support of HMMH, this side and the other side, book friends 20180918102252805, and the first sauce of the runaway!
Thank you~
