Chapter 149: Mr. Ke, sweaty, right?

The method used by SE is not uncommon for modern krypton games with all kinds of tricks.

But back then, the entire gaming industry was aiming to 'make more fun games' and 'sell more handhelds'.

SE was the first to jump out of the circle and started a big harvest in the form of selling 'DLC'.

Of course, this DLC is not the other DLC.

The handheld has an additional port that allows you to insert another small cassette.

When the cassette is inserted into the handheld together with the "Electronic Pet" main cassette.

It will add more ways to interact with "Cyber Pet".

But what's the matter.

This cassette is not sold directly.

Players are required to go to the offline pachinko store to play marbles.

A certain number of small balls must be collected in order to redeem a 'DLC' cartridge.

According to later statistics, the average cost of an additional cartridge for "Cyber Pet" is about 100,000 yen.

If this money is converted to Huaguo in the 80s, it is about 1,000 yuan.

What is this concept?

The price of pork at that time was about one pound or more.

1000 yuan can buy almost two or three pigs!

Of course, 100,000 yen certainly doesn't have such a high purchasing power in Neon soil, but it's definitely not a small amount.

At that time, the price of the original handheld usually fluctuated in the range of 5K~1.5w yen.

In other words, the average player needs to pay for additional cartridges can buy a dozen handheld computers.

If you put this price on the first and then sell it to the player, the player will definitely scold.

But what is pachinko?

To put it bluntly, it's all kinds of slot machines with bells and whistles.

This thing has a very low probability, and it is small and big.

Therefore, there are players who lose even 200,000 yen.

But there are also players who hit the nail on the head.

'I successfully redeemed the Cyber Pet DLC after playing pachinko once yesterday'.

It's more interesting than 'I spent tens of thousands of yen and didn't have any hair.'

Everyone wants to be the emperor of Europe more than the moldy pen.

Therefore, people tend to ignore the irrationality of the sky-high asking price behind it, and focus on a small part of the survivor bias.

What if I get out?

What if I also fall into the soul?

And when the cassette was given this gambling nature.

Groups of electronic gambling dogs have also begun to emerge.

What's more, cassette gadgets, as entities, are replaceable commodities, and there is a trading market.

I just pulled out a fresh cassette, don't gamble, you may not be able to get out of 100,000 yuan, buddy directly sold it for 350,000 yuan, isn't it beautiful?

At this point, a complete set of interest chains has been constructed.

More and more players are joining.

SE has also completed a magnificent metamorphosis.

At a price that is almost impossible for players to accept if sold directly, the company has achieved corner overtaking, and the company's revenue generation has begun to explode!

It dealt a fatal blow to the game manufacturers of the same period.

More and more manufacturers are taking a look.

Oh, I don't think I have to go out of my way to make a good game, and I don't have to make the handheld performance very good.

Why do I just need to add a gambling element and co-brand with Pachinko to make money?

Okay, okay, let's play like this!

Then I'll play too!

The wheel of fate has also begun to turn.

Later, it was not the conscience of manufacturers to promote the development of the game industry from handheld consoles to consoles, PCs and other more advanced devices.

Instead, they realized that they had to give Pachinko money to co-branded with Pachinko.

How can it be repaired!

Wouldn't it be better if I had it to myself?

Then, the nature of scratch cards, the nature of point cards, and then to the era of online payment after the popularization of the Internet.

The profits that can be monopolized are getting bigger and bigger, and the road of game manufacturers is getting more and more crooked.

And if the big factories do this, it will affect one small factory after another.

Manufacturers do this, which in turn affects the definition of the game itself by generations of players.

Some of these players have grown up to become game practitioners.

It's like being stamped with thoughts in my head, and it's useless.

Because it's always been like this, I've been playing krypton games all the way since I was a child.

You're telling me now to stop making kryptonite games and make fun games.

Then I'll just ask you, 'Isn't it fun to draw cards?' ’

"How can it be so similar?" After learning about the history of SE in this life, Ke Jin couldn't help but sigh.

This company was not very good in its previous life, although it also had popular IP series such as "Final Fantasy".

But the kryptonite system in the field of mobile games was also pioneered by this company in its previous life.

As the world's first kryptonite game - "Diffusion Million King Arthur" after the launch.

Its explosive flow shocked almost every game maker on the planet.

The end of the matter gradually brought a lot of game manufacturers on the planet.

And the SE of this life is even more outrageous.

I have been a demon since the 80s, and I have directly led to the development of the game in the 30 years of Blue Star.

Although there are many other big-name manufacturers in this process, they have also made 'indelible' contributions.

But the root of all evil still depends on SE.

Closing the web page of SE's family history, Ke Jin suddenly felt worried about the new mobile game "Cute" launched by Yinhui.

The biggest shareholder behind Yinhui is SE......

What kind of urine will this "Cute and Cute" be, Ke Jin already has seven or eight points in his heart.

I searched and learned.

"Cute" is currently at the end of the second beta, and the official public beta will be released one month later.

However, unlike the number one player, which has always been tested by internal employees, the second test of "Exciting Shot" is completed by players.

There are quite a few videos in Perak.

The game genre is a combination of two-dimensional beautiful girls and playing chess.

On a 20x20 board grid, four players are located in the four corners of the south, east, west, and north, holding a 10x10 grid territory.

The chess pieces that the player lands on the chessboard are the Q version of these chess pieces of the big-headed beautiful girl.

The player will start with a total of three pieces...... Oh no, it's three beautiful girls.

They are deployed in their respective corners in an 'L' shape.

Each beautiful girl has a maximum of 10 HP.

And there are three basic ways of action.

One is attack, one is defense, and the last one is action.

Action commands, if you are on your own territory, you can move two squares in either direction of 'front, back, left, right'.

These two are not only straight and straight, but can even get out of the 'upper left', 'upper right' such a broken line approach.

Once you enter enemy territory, you can only go one block.

If two beautiful girls from different player camps are posted, they will attack or defend according to the player's commands.

However, it is worth noting that once your own piece is surrounded by three pieces on the opposite side.

You will have to withstand the attacks of three opponents at a time, and you can only choose one of them to attack.

The way to win the game is also very simple, if you kill all the beautiful girls in a certain camp, or if any of your pieces rush to the corner of the opponent's camp (refer to the position of the four rooks in chess).

to declare the player's victory and eat away at the loser's territory, moving two squares in a single action in an active territory that changes from 10*10 to 10*20.

That's the rough way to play.

To be honest, just looking at this gameplay, Ke Jin thinks that although it is not particularly interesting, it is okay as a mobile game to pass the time.

There are also cases of player gambling.

For example, when one of the players is about to die, as a player adjacent to their territory, they have to consider the situation of cold lips and teeth.

Therefore, it is also possible to help the neighbors.

Or, if your desire to attack is too strong, your own city is empty, and you may also be stolen by other players.

It's even possible that when you attack one player, the other two players want to steal the house, start a fight on your turf, and finally come back to take advantage of the fisherman's profit.

There are a lot of variables.

And know that this is just the basic gameplay of this game.

As long as the basic framework is stable enough, the gameplay is interesting and can be changed.

For example, each character adds a different offensive or defensive skill.

Increases the attack range by three squares when the skill is activated.

Or the defending side can withstand the two incoming damages.

Or if you have a character with the Fortify Castle skill, you can make your corner point impossible to invade for the next three turns.

And so on and so forth.

As long as you plan a meeting to discuss it, I believe that countless whimsical ideas can collide.

In the end, you just need to make sure that the game is balanced.

Skill effects are a little cooler.

For example, when a beautiful girl puts her skills, the beautiful skill illustrations unfold in two dimensions.

The special skins on the board are more noticeable.

Then buy some special voice and MVP settlement screens, or the costume of the chessboard itself.

This will be a casual game that can be quite popular among young people.

As a result, after taking a closer look at the game's payout mechanics.

Kejin people were stunned.

It can only be said that it is worthy of a company in which SE is the majority shareholder.

All behaviors are moving closer to heavy krypton.

First of all, the chess piece, just the shape modeling can be taken out and sold for money.

A character has five different appearances of 1~5 stars.

And these 1~5 stars are not the strength of the character, it is purely the appearance effect.

But your appearance effect is the appearance effect.

Why do you still carry private goods?

If a character is upgraded to a 5-star sprite, a bunch of bells and whistles will be added to her surroundings.

For example, a girl in a swimsuit, in addition to the character herself wearing dead water.

There will be a small yellow duck swimming ring at her feet, and then there will be a sun umbrella lounger on the right.

On the left is a castle carved with sand sculptures.

There are also some small starfish, small shells and other messy decorations.

These decorations look as if they are just to add an element of the beach and make it look rich and detailed.

OK, that's no problem.

But you're special.

Can you please not count these into your attack range?

Ke Jin saw an evaluation video and personally tested the attack range of the swimsuit girl.

Because the chess piece has too many skin elements and occupies a large area.

Therefore, as long as the chessboard is placed, it is directly calculated according to the distance of 2 squares in a radius.

Take 10,000 steps back, and you can count on the area of two blocks.

Then you should be able to attack two squares more than when someone hits you, right?

Well, that's different again.

When someone hits a girl in a swimsuit, the range of damage must be within one square of her body.

It is equivalent to saying that she is always one square ahead of the attack range when she hits others.

What a well-known double standard.

Ke Jin didn't believe in this kind of thing, which was even a bug, and Yinhui couldn't detect it during the internal test.

Clearly deliberate.

On the surface, under the banner of 'skin is just appearance', in fact, there are all kinds of powerful performance private jobs.

If you don't buy skins with krypton, the family has a swimsuit girl, and you can click directly at the beginning.

But you want kryptonite, you need to start with 1 star, and with 1 star you can draw 2 stars.

The first 1~4 stars are just pure appearance, without any bonus.

The UP in the video probably calculates an account.

If you want to draw five stars, you need an average of about 20,000 yuan.

That's it, it's just the 'hidden attributes' that come with the skin's appearance

The real character skill attributes are even more dazzling to Ke Jin.

Among them is a chess piece called "Knight Fuya".

The skill that 0 Krypton players start with is Area Slash.

Deals 1 base attack damage to all enemies within 1 block of the body, with a cooldown every 3 turns.

And when you spend money to upgrade this skill, it becomes "Blade Flame"

It's still an area of effect, but the effect is to add fire attribute damage to all enemies within a square, -2 HP per turn for 5 turns.

Good guy, you put a fire buff on people, and the other side is just waiting for death, right?

And one more level.

Skills have changed again.

Turned into "Blazing Slash"

The attack range has been doubled to two, but the Fire Blaster can be extended three more blocks.

What kind of concept is this?

Any enemy piece in a 5x5 radius will be affected.

And if the skill is upgraded to the fourth level with money, it will not be able to act.

Directly on a "prairie fire"

Inflicts -2 HP per turn on full-screen enemies for 5 turns.

and heals all of your allies with 2 HP per turn for 5 turns.

And what surprised Ke Jin even more was that.

At this point, the road to becoming stronger is not over.

Because there is also a final form in other people's games, called soul skills.

Once unlocked, this skill comes with an ultimate passive.

The effect is:

Each subsequent move of the piece will activate the skill once for full screen.

Skills are all stacks of the first 4 levels*2.

Then, what made Ke Jin feel the most outrageous.

After reading the review, he found that this character seemed to be just a blue-quality hero.

There's also a bunch of purple and gold quality hero reviews......

But Ke Jin didn't dare to look at it anymore.

I can only say that my thinking is still too conservative.

Kejin knows that the per capita sow in the mobile game circle is a big money-burner.

But I didn't expect it to burn like this.

This level of the game, in a previous life.

The first impression in Kejin's mind is the Wanning series, what Wanning Go, Wanning chess, billiards and the like.

But that thing is at best a piece of fun, and there are not many players who can really make krypton gold.

But in this life, let's take "Cute" as an example.

The number of views of the PV of the announcement is as high as 20 million.

Even there are as many as 3 million reservations.

Although there is a certain amount of moisture in it.

But it still shows that the players' acceptance of it is okay.

I even think that there is nothing wrong with this krypton gold system.

Even if there are a few complaints in the announcement PV, take the high-quality and inexpensive games launched by the number one player in the past two years as a comparison.

It will also be immediately scolded back by some of Silverglow's die-hard players.

"Without Kryptonite, how can game companies make money? Do you really point to game companies that generate electricity with love? ”

"In fact, people can't make much money, you see that 5-star appearance costs 20,000, but people don't want money to publicize it? Employees don't want money? Performance bonuses, rent, water and electricity, all calculated down, 20,000 yuan of running water, to the game company may only be one or two thousand, is it really expensive? ”

"Please, don't take the number one player as an example, what stinky fish and rotten shrimp is the number one player, who still plays terminal games these days? Mobile is the king of the market of the future! ”

"Are these stinky dogs polluting the environment all water armies invited by the number one player company? Why haven't you even made the game yet.,Touch the porcelain first? ”

"The head imp is like this, and they only know the number one player."

"Don't say I'm messing around, I've really played the game of the number one player before, I won't talk about it, the difficulty of "Hollow Knight" is eight, can it be called a game? I'm here to have fun, not to be abused! ”

"Isn't "Wind Journey" also making money by standing paintings? Draw some landscapes that I can't stand to see.,It's not as good as my beautiful girl with a big silver glow.。 ”

"I reported the game "Assassin's Creed" two days ago, promoting bloody violence, which is essentially a killing game covered in a layer of skin, and players who play "Assassin" will not want to kill people in the future."

"Duanyou stinky dog stay away from us, thank you."

roughly swept the comment area of various PVs of "Cute", and Ke Jin only felt a miasma of black smoke.

His comments on these players didn't have much of a fluctuating mood.

On Earth, the chain of contempt for gaming circles has always existed.

The console party looks down on the PC and thinks that the keyboard is soulless.

PC looks down on mobile games and thinks that glass cleaners have no way out.

Mobile games, in turn, look down on both, believing that the first two are slaves locked in a fixed location by the game, and playing a game is the same as going to prison.

Ke Jin is used to seeing it.

A gaming device is just a carrier, and any device is the same.

More importantly, it is possible to convey the diverse core of the game to players.

It's just that this contradiction seems to be more intense than he imagined on Blue Star.

This wave of mobile game players spontaneously launched an attack on the number one player.

That's not realistic.

Obviously, there is a driving force behind this, which guides the players emotionally.

Someone is clearly stressed by the fact that the number one player is trying to touch the big pie of mobile.

But it doesn't matter.

Genting will make a move.

In the gaming environment of the previous life, Genting's performance on mobile was eye-catching.

What's more, mobile game players like Blue Star don't seem to have seen what real entertainment is.

Only kryptonite games can buy happiness, and this concept is wrong in the first place.

……

"Yes, that's right! That's right! ”

"That's it! Beat them hard! ”

As the general project leader of "Cute".

Zhu Yue was furious when he learned that the new game "Genting Game" developed by the number one player wanted to enter the mobile game market.

This-stirring stick! Make the terminal game environment a miasma!

Look at what the two terminal game manufacturers have been persecuted into?

When the number one player did not rise, Zhu Yue remembered that the average draw of the terminal game could sell for 50 or even 60.

Now I only dare to sell 30 at a time, and there is even a tendency to lower the price even further.

Terminal game players are also calling for 'reducing kryptonite' and 'enhancing gameplay'.

This forced the disaster to finish the end of the game, and now you want to come to the disaster of our mobile game?

We Yinhui have worked hard to maintain the krypton gold habits of the domestic mobile terminal so well.

Let the mobile game party believe in the concept of 'if you want to play cool, you need to charge more money'.

Even through many publicity, it conveyed the implicit concept implantation of 'noble mobile game players'.

How can a hard-earned game ruin a small number one player?

However, disgusting is disgusting, Zhu Yue is still somewhat sensible.

He knew that to stop the number one player from entering the game, cursing on his back wasn't enough.

We have to do something substantial!

He asked his staff to pretend to be fans of the number one gamer, and ran to the major comment areas of "Cute" to bring a wave of rhythm.

It's best to pretend to be superior, so as to arouse the indignation of your own fans.

Finally, buy some traffic to spread the word about it.

Before the number one player entered the game, he was first boycotted by all mobile game players.

Give him a kick!

If he is honest and follows himself to make kryptonite games in the future, then it doesn't hurt for you to order a cake and eat it in the corner.

If he is still mad here, there are ways to cure him!

Secondly.

Zhu Yue is also very confident in his game "Cute".

He has observed the market, and in the past 10 years, the game market in the board game area has been very empty.

Chess and card players, playing and playing, are nothing more than the same as the old three.

Fight landlords, chess, Go and so on.

But don't look at the small variety, but the player base is quite large.

In their spare time, they always like to drive.

So I simply came to a big fusion.

The chessboard frame of "Exciting Meng" is copied from the specifications of Go.

However, through different skills, the chess pieces can get out of various fancy routes, which is equivalent to upgrading the chess.

The game theory of the last four-person battle is equivalent to an optimization on the basis of fighting the landlord.

and then use its own mature ACG field culture, as well as its appeal in mobile games.

created the IP of "Cute".

The effect is also surprisingly good.

The second test of the deleted file for half a month has already earned a turnover of nearly 300 million.

This is still a case where the kryptonite system is not fully implemented, and the deletion is not very acceptable for some players.

But once the service is officially launched, the first month's turnover can't go to a billion?

And you know, the innovation of board games is the hardest.

Different from the confrontation of fighting monsters and upgrading, the essence of chess and cards is to fight against another player.

It's not easy to strike a balance.

And "Exciting Meng" has almost sewn in all the chess and card gameplay!

No matter how awesome your number one player is, how much creative space is left?

Fight with us Yinhui in the ring?

It's like drooling in front of the breeding farm - do you deserve it too?

Just when Zhu Yue criticized the bandit behavior of the number one player in the mobile game market with delusional involvement in the mobile game market, he criticized it in his heart.

The secretary knocked on the door and said respectfully: "Mr. Zhu, the director of the development department just said that all aspects of the optimization of "Exciting Meng" have been put in place and can be put on the shelves at any time, should we put it on the shelves according to the original plan, or a week in advance?" ”

"Direct ......" Zhu Yue was about to say 'direct hair'

But after thinking about it, I changed my mind again.

"When will Ready Player One's Genting Game be available? When I watched it two weeks ago, it seemed that they had announced the R&D progress on the app. ”

Should I say it or not, the speed at which this forced company to make games is really fucking Ha people!

The project that was set up three weeks ago has already thrown the sketches of the map and various concept drafts to the players in a week.

Now in two weeks, the company is not going to get the game done......

If it weren't for the size of its own company here, the player base would be huge, and the confidence of the major shareholder SE behind it would also be very sufficient.

Zhu Yue was really a little afraid of the momentum of the number one player.

"It seems that their company just released the latest news on the number one intelligence yesterday, claiming that it will be available to players in 10 days at the latest, and a week soon." The secretary replied.

"That's okay, then our company will choose to go online on the same day as him!" Zhu Yue said firmly: "When he is on it, we will be on it whenever he goes!" ”

Anyway, the date set by myself is also a week later, a few days sooner or later, a few days earlier, and it has little impact.

But if you can directly collide with the number one player in a wave of head-to-head collisions.

The effect of the contrast will be very obvious.

Let him feel what is called the reign of terror that broke 100 million on the first day!

It's best to scare him out of the mobile terminal overnight.

Of course, this is unlikely.

But as a deterrent warning, it is enough.

……

Soon, time flickered, and a week quickly turned the page.

After the number one player finally issued an announcement that "Genting Game" will be available tomorrow.

Yinhui will also send out the announcement of the "Exciting Radiance" game that was prepared early.

The set file has been moved forward by one day, and it will be officially launched at 12 noon tomorrow!

Moreover, Zhu Yue also used dim sum this time.

He observed that the number one player in the PC game can be said to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Every time the game is released, the major game streamers will help him build momentum for free and fire the first shot!

This means that on the day of the release of "Genting", there will be many big anchors guarding the noon meal, and when the audience has the largest number of viewers, they will choose to try "Genting"

This time, "Genting" is double-end synchronization again, and after the audience watches it, it is very likely that the mobile phone will open the download.

This is a force to be reckoned with.

"Genting" is also a chess game like "Exciting Cute", although the number one player has never revealed the gameplay.

But Zhu Yue estimated that the type must be very different.

If once let the player be implanted with preconceived notions.

That's a bit dangerous.

Therefore, Zhu Yue directly relied on hundreds of millions of people.

I bought the various head anchors of several major platforms in one go at 12~14 o'clock at noon tomorrow and 18~21 o'clock in the evening, a full five hours of live broadcast time.

All broadcast "Cute"!

And asked the anchors to present the fun points in the game to the audience as much as possible in the live broadcast room.

Firmly infuse this wave of preconceived concepts into the players!

The development of the situation is also under Zhu Yue's secret thrust, and it is moving forward steadily.

Next.

12 noon.

Almost all game anchors on the whole platform who are still on the cards have opened the live broadcast interface of "Cute" at this time!

PDD: "Brothers, today I will broadcast you a giant snakeskin fresh mobile game!" ”

Xiao Tuantuan: "Brothers and sisters are cute, the game broadcast today is "Exciting and Cute"

Yinzi: "Mao Ning Mao Ning, broadcast a new gadget to everyone, and everyone will eat while watching and eating." ”

Da Sima: "Good afternoon, students. ”

Wang Laoju: "Good afternoon, employees, today I will bring you a mobile game with interesting gameplay, it took me about a few minutes to understand all the gameplay of the game, and now I will show you it." ”

……

Looking at the live broadcast with a full screen of synchronization!

Zhu Yue immediately smiled with relief.

Without the support of the anchors.

Sweaty, right?

Just one more, big chapter

(End of chapter)
