Chapter 7: Your mouth is really hard to tighten
“…… At the request of the audience, in the last video, I gave you an inventory of several party games suitable for multiplayer online play, so in this issue, I will recommend a few simulation games that have received rave reviews. ”
"First of all, the first one, the cold window hard reading simulator! This game has been very popular recently, and I believe you have more or less swiped the videos made by other UP masters......"
"The game only has a standard version, without any DLC, the price is only 18 yuan, interested partners can start, anyway, Gubao has already bought it, and it has been put for three days of cow ......"
"Herding cattle...... Ah no, the cold window hard reading simulator, out of 10, how many points will you give? ”
The sound of the video playing out was very loud, and Chen Ba was sitting very close, so he didn't need to watch him to know what video Wang Kun was watching.
"Alright, don't look at it!"
After picking up the bottle opener given by the boss, skillfully opening a bottle and handing it to Wang Kun, Chen Ba said speechlessly: "Where are you looking for all these videos?" ”
"Big data recommendation!"
"Maybe it's because I've been searching for videos about the cold window hard reading simulator these days, so the homepage is all of this kind."
Wang Kun smiled: "Don't tell me, you didn't search for these videos to satisfy your curiosity, and you don't have this kind of video on your homepage?" ”
"That's really not ......"
Chen Ba is very single-minded, and the videos that big data intelligently recommends to him are all kinds of young ladies with long legs and short skirts, and it can be seen from this that big data really understands him very well.
What does it mean to accurately grasp users?
It's not that he, the author of the game, doesn't pay attention to the situation of his game, it's just that the focus of his attention is obviously not the same as Wang Kun's concern.
He pays more attention to the comments of real players in the game comment area, and will also log in to the developer account in the game community to answer some questions about the game.
Especially bad reviews......
"Huh? And bad reviews?! ”
Wang Kun, who had just stuffed a bunch of roasted corn into his mouth, blinked his eyes and asked, "Why did he give a bad review?" 18 yuan to buy such a game is not satisfied? ”
"It's not a matter of pricing."
Chen Ba shook his head.
There are not many bad reviews in the comment area, but there are dozens, and among these dozens of bad reviews, there are no players who feel that 18 yuan is not worth it.
Most of the bad reviews are all from Chen Ba's "Update Announcement Explanation".
[The game has a bug and still doesn't admit it? ] I like your hard mouth very much, but don't fix the bug and get a bad review! 】
[Why did I work so hard to clear the customs overnight, and I couldn't catch up with others hanging up and herding cattle all night? ] Spicy Chicken Game! 】
[When to admit that there is a bug in the cattle herding incident, and when to change the praise......]
"So many bad reviews? So why don't you listen to these people's advice and fix that bug? Wang Kun asked.
"How? I don't think so. ”
When Chen Ba heard this, his expression immediately couldn't hold back, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Most of the thousands of comments are positive, and they also persuade me not to fix that bug, what do you think I should do?" ”
This question is so easy to choose.
Compared with the number of negative reviews, the number of players with positive reviews is significantly higher, and dozens of times more.
The most important thing is that most players have watched the video of Qian Duoduo, think this bug is very funny, and persuade the game author to keep it.
As he says in the update announcement, this isn't a bug, it's a hidden mechanic in the game: talent is more important than hard work!
Therefore, Chen Ba's choice is very simple.
He replied to almost every negative review: "I'm sorry for giving you a bad gaming experience, but the problem you reported is not a bug, but a game mechanic......"
"Hahaha!"
Wang Kun laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.
As Chen Ba's good buddy and the first player to play this game, there is no doubt that an epiphany after three years of herding cattle must be a bug.
It is precisely because he knows about this that he feels that the hard mouth of a good brother is really unbearable.
Players who give bad reviews are probably going to be angry when they receive this reply from Brother Ba, right?
"It's really ......"
Chen Ba's expression was a little embarrassed and said: "Someone directly scolded me, saying that only my mouth was the hardest in my whole body, and said that they would be black to me for the rest of my life." ”
And that's not even the most outrageous.
The most outrageous thing is that a certain "hardcore" player directly made an analysis video, analyzing whether the matter of "herding cattle for three years to become the champion of the high school entrance examination" is a bug from all angles, in order to refute Chen Ba, the game producer's hard remarks.
Well, his argument was successful!
After watching the video, most people understand that Chen Ba is indeed hard-mouthed, this is a game bug.
But......
After he sent out this video, he double-clicked to [Cold Window Reading Simulator] to attract a large number of new players.
After all, netizens think this bug is too fun, and after watching the video, they want to experience it, and they can't stop it.
"We have to thank him!"
Chen Ba grinned: "I wish I had a few more black fans like this, advertise me for free, and save a lot of promotion fees." ”
"Poof! cough cough cough ......"
Wang Kun, who was drinking, laughed on the spot, almost choking to death by beer: "You are so cheap!" ”
Could it be that this is the so-called one black top ten powder?
After ridiculing about the bad reviews of the game, and after beckoning the boss to roast ten more skewers of mutton, Wang Kun wiped his mouth with a napkin and asked, "Then again, your game is on fire, don't you think about DLC?" ”
"No!"
Picking up a skewer of roasted kidneys, Chen Ba shook his head and denied: "This kind of game is almost a one-shot deal, and the DLC should wait for the next game to consider." ”
Not all games are suitable for DLC.,At least the cold window hard reading simulator is not suitable.,Unless you add a "high school" content to the game, what can DLC sell?
Change the old scalper of the protagonist's family into a new set of fashions and incarnate the terrifying bull demon king, so that the players will be more happy when herding cattle?
Pull it down!
Out of this kind of DLC that has no game content and is purely deceitful of krypton, Chen Ba feels that the means are too low-level, and few people will buy it.
This group of players who play stand-alone games, kryptonite is far less motivated than the group of players in mobile games, and it is better to expect them to pay for this kind of spicy chicken content.
"The next game?"
Wang Kun grabbed the key words in Chen Ba's words, and said with a little excitement: "You have a new game again?" What genre, can you let me try it out? ”
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry, the new game hasn't started yet, and I'll definitely let you know as soon as I'm ready."
After drinking the beer in the paper cup, Chen Ba patiently explained.
He already has an idea for the next game.
The success of the cold window hard reading simulator gave him the idea of "striking while the iron is hot", and while the previous game was still hot, he hurriedly launched a second simulator mini-game to consolidate the existing fan base.
As for what subject matter, he only has a general idea.
The most acclaimed part of the cold window hard reading simulator is probably the realistic portrayal of the characters and the touching inspirational plot.
Then make a simulation game with a similar style and a similar plot.
This time, I put more effort into the plot, strive to make it more touching and inspirational, and deceive the players' little pearls more.
At the same time, this time he will also learn the lesson of the [Cold Window Reading Simulator], and put more thought into the game testing process, it will be impossible to repeat the mistakes of the past, and there will be an outrageous bug similar to "herding cattle for three years".
After all, I don't admit that there is such a thing as a bug, and I can almost get it after doing it once, how can I be hard at it every time?
