Global Evolution is a game that is more popular than sold.

To be precise, all games priced at more than 200 yuan are basically more popular than sales, and there are far more people paying attention to them than people buying and playing.

The reason for this is one word: expensive!

For a game at this price, everyone will envy its picture quality performance, like its gameplay, and discuss its plot setting...... But the people who are really willing to pay for it are in the minority.

"This should be our studio's first game with overseas sales greater than domestic sales, right?"

"Remove the word should!"

Chen Ba said speechlessly: "The data is so intuitively displayed, what do you still suspect?" ”

In one week, the overseas sales of "Global Evolution" exceeded 1.1 million copies, and the domestic sales volume of all platforms exceeded 1.1 million copies, with a cumulative sales volume of about 1.6 million copies, and a cumulative revenue of about 550 million yuan.

Looking at the sales ratio alone, 110:50 doesn't seem to be such a big gap, after all, overseas sales are just a little more than double.

But if you look at the revenue proportion data, it is outrageous, and the proportion of overseas revenue exceeds 85%!

"The overseas version is expensive!"

"And to be honest, this sales performance is already relatively poor for a triple-A game."

Yang Dong explained: "The sales of normal triple-A games in the first week are several times that of ours. ”

Don't look at the five or six billion dollars a week, it sounds like an exaggerated profiteering, but not all of this money goes to Tianba Studio. Only the sales revenue of the Nobug platform is 100% owned by Tianba Studio.

Removing the commission of each platform, the actual after-tax payment is less than half.

Then here's the problem!

Why is Global Evolution, as a triple-A game, not selling as well as other triple-A? I didn't break 2 million copies in the first week, so it's a bit shabby to say it......

"It's still a question of trust."

Yang Dong carefully analyzed it and felt that the reason for the poor performance of "Global Evolution" in the first week was mainly because most players did not know "Tianba Studio".

If you don't know each other, you will be suspicious, and you will doubt whether the other party has the ability to do a good triple-A game.

This kind of skeptical attitude, when faced with the $60 standard 3A selling price, will give rise to a thought: Isn't it good for buddy to have the money to buy a Big Dead Redemption 3? Isn't it nice to buy a GTA6?

Anyway, the price gap is not big.

How famous are Dead Redemption 3 and GTA6?

It's certainly not a loss to buy these two games, and it's a bit risky to buy a Global Evolution game that I've never heard of the name of, and I'm not sure if it's fun or not, and even the developers don't know it.

"You're ...... right"

Chen Ba did not deny that there was indeed this problem, that is, the reputation of Tianba Studio was too low, and it had never launched a triple-A game before, which caused overseas players to not buy it very much.

Not to mention overseas players, domestic players should not buy it or not.

In other words, even the old fans of the old games in the past are skeptical about Tianba Studio's 3A games, and decide to wait and see before starting, how can passers-by and players be so easy to start?

Of course, this is the data for the first week.

As time goes on, especially the bugs in the game get worse, and the level bosses that have evolved from the player make a lot of jokes, it should improve in the second week.

"I've found out that many hardcore single-player players who like to play souls-like games and soul-like games seem to be aroused by Global Evolution."

"What's the situation?"

Yang Dong was busy updating and maintaining the major version of "Extreme Hurricane" in the past two days, so he didn't surf the Internet in time, and he didn't understand the meaning of Chen Ba's words.

What does it mean to be competitive?

Isn't Global Evolution an RPG that focuses on open-world exploration and adventure? How does it have anything to do with hardcore soul games and soul-like games?

"Here's the thing......"

"Isn't there a bug in our game, players can evolve into level bosses!"

Chen Ba briefly introduced what happened.

In fact, it's also very simple, it's nothing more than a group of players who were abused by the level boss of "Global Evolution" to the point of fainting, and then recorded videos and sent them to various platforms, complaining about the perversion of the difficulty of this game.

"This is the level boss of our "Global Evolution", it's really cunning and cunning, do you have such a boss?"

If you post a video, you definitely want to win a little more attention and increase the number of views and replies to the video.

Therefore, the content and titles of these videos are not lacking in the suspicion of "deliberately leading the war". In short, there are all kinds of hints in and out of the words, the level boss of "Global Evolution" is the most difficult and hardcore, and other games can't do it.

The soul-like and soul-like gamers who have always prided themselves on being hardcore and difficult were naturally unhappy when they heard this.

What bullshit would dare to brag about being so powerful? Dare to compare my favorite XX games?

It's a face, isn't it?

This kind of war was just a small circle behavior at the beginning, after all, when some people recorded videos, they really spoke freely and said whatever came to mind.

"The difficulty of "Global Evolution" is higher than that of XX games, you don't believe it! As far as your man-machine boss is concerned, are you embarrassed to say that hardcore is difficult? ”

As the scolding war between the players on both sides escalated, the situation suddenly expanded.

Soul games and soul-like gamers have given "Global Evolution" players the nickname "ball batch", and all kinds of hard rubbing are simply shameless.

The players of "Global Evolution" are also not convinced, feeling that these old things are completely living in their own world, and they are numb when they fight personal machine bosses!

If you have the ability, come to our "Global Evolution" to play the level boss played by the player, if you can pass it in one go, then I will admit that you are indeed a hardcore player.

"Ah......h

When Yang Dong heard this, he had already guessed how the follow-up plot would develop.

Is Global Evolution difficult?

If it's when the game is just released, the difficulty is really not high, just have a hand on the easy difficulty, and remember a few points to defeat each plot boss.

But that's not the case!

Because of the abnormal bug in the game, some players have evolved and replaced the original story level boss, so the difficulty of the game has been upgraded at once.

Playing a human machine is indeed a different feeling than a player.

At least the man and machine will not play with you, let alone play tricks with you, follow the strategy, and you will definitely be able to die a few more times.

The level boss played by the player, although the value is still the same value, but the operation level is not the same thing at all......

"That's right!"

Chen Ba affirmed Brother Dong's guess, and couldn't help laughing: "These hardcore players of soul games and soul-like games bought a copy of "Global Evolution" with the idea of slapping their faces. ”

"They originally thought that with this kind of game, they could easily clear the level in less than two hours. When the time comes, you can not only hit the face of the ball batch, but also initiate a refund, without a single loss! ”

"What's even the most perverted, you know? The most perverted thing is that they confidently chose the hell difficulty as soon as they came......"

Speaking of this, even Yang Dong couldn't hold back and smiled.

Are you really confident?

is worthy of being the most hardcore player on the whole network and likes to challenge difficult games the most, and this courage is indeed very extraordinary.

Pity......

Global Evolution is really different from the games they used to play!

The level bosses in this are not Tie Hanhan who has no wisdom and only knows how to act according to the preset logic, but a sinister and cunning player with a bad stomach.

No doubt.

These players who want to prove that they are hardcore and prove that Global Evolution can do it all exceed the game's refund time limit.

"Brother, I was wrong!"

"You're right, you're so right! Global Evolution is truly one of the most hardcore games, and I shouldn't question your ......"

How hard he spoke at the beginning, how desperate and helpless he was when he encountered those player bosses in Hell difficulty.

Lai Pi!

These player bosses, all of them are like old fritters, not only understand the art of war and tactics, but even know deception skills.

That's right, trick players into dodging and counter-skills through feints.

If you are deceived, then wait for death! The bosses of these levels are all players, and they know very well what other life-saving skills you have, and there is no psychological burden on sneak attacks.

Originally, the panel values of the bosses in these levels were exaggerated, and when they were endowed with human intelligence, they created an unprecedented difficulty: player level!

That's right!

As more and more hardcore gamers hit the streets and fall under the clutches of bosses, the gaming community usually excludes Global Evolution when discussing hardcore and difficult games.

Is this still a hammer?

When you were discussing whether the boss of Global Evolution was difficult or not, the boss of Global Evolution looked at your post in front of the computer, what is the significance of this discussion?

There is no way to come up with a strategy.

It's not that no one has tried to get game strategies, but as soon as these strategies came out, players immediately found out that these level bosses had changed their playing style.

The weaknesses and precautions mentioned in the strategy have not been fully remembered by players, and these level bosses are more firmly remembered than they do.

This strategy is equivalent to reading in vain!

But then again, although 99% of the strategies are to help BOSS players check and fill in the gaps, which does not play a little role for ordinary players, there are also strategy stickers from the bulls, which do have a great effect.

This kind of strategy sticker will not teach you to fight the boss in a textbook style, but teach you how to improvise and deal with some emergencies or fatal crises.

At the same time, the information of these level bosses was carefully analyzed, and a set of long-range and short-range combat techniques for different boss sizes was developed.

These strategies, even if they are seen by boss players, are nothing, because this kind of strategy teaches operational thinking and improvisation.

Ordinary players can't copy their homework, they can only rely on understanding, not only to understand, but also to try more and die, only by trying a lot and not being afraid of death can they clear the level.

"Someone has already cleared the customs?"

"Yes, quite a few!"

Chen Ba explained: "The process of our game is not very long, if it is easy difficulty, someone cleared the level a few days ago and started the second week of playing." ”

It is not difficult to clear customs.

Even if the level boss is replaced by the player, if you want to clear the game on easy difficulty, you can die a few more times.

But after clearing the customs, most players will choose to increase the difficulty for latecomers and open a new file to generate a game boss, which is a bit speechless.

The first batch of players who can clear the customs must be very hardcore players with passable techniques.

They clear the customs by themselves, and then they become game bosses to stop others and prevent others from clearing the customs, which can usually only be described in one sentence: because they have been drenched in the rain, they have to tear off the umbrella of the latecomer!

"It's broken!"

"If it goes on like this, there won't be fewer and fewer players who can clear Global Evolution, right?" Yang Dong couldn't cry or laugh.

"How to say it, I don't know if there will be fewer players who have cleared the level, I just know that there will definitely be more bosses in this game than players."

Chen Ba's face was sad.

With the increase in game sales, there is no need to worry about this problem for the time being. But if sales gradually stabilize, the number of "inappropriate" players will definitely be greater than the average player.

It's really cool to be inappropriate!

The panel values and strength of the boss are much stronger than the template of the same level of players, and they can also be advanced by killing players, so you don't have to worry about the strength being unable to continue to improve.

But if the players are not human, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow and blow to the entire game ecosystem.

Just think about it.

When the time comes, nine of the ten players have evolved into game bosses, and there is only one normal person, so how will these nine boss players "abuse" this normal player?

"Good days are yet to come!"

In other words, Global Evolution is not yet fully formed. After a while, new players will experience what despair ......"

What does a complete body look like?

Chen Ba tried to deduce it in his mind, and then sighed.

Xiao Ming, I heard that "Global Evolution" is very fun, so I bought this game with joy and decided to experience it.

As a result, not long after entering the game, he encountered a wild boss in the wilderness and was abused to the point that his scalp was numb.

[Meng new report, may I ask the gods, how to spend the early stage of this game? ] Where can I see the community's guides? 】

After posting a help-seeking post, Xiao Ming was full of anticipation and thought that the old players would be very enthusiastic to reply to the post and teach him how to play the game.

However......

"Newcomer? Let's go! ”

"I smell the smell of humans, quack, it's actually new? If I kill one more player, I'll be the king of the sea beasts, God help me! ”

"Boom! Don't be afraid of the new.,Everyone is a good person.,It's very simple to play this game.,Just push the main line through the plot without brains.,I'm waiting for you on the edge of the cliff! ”

"It is incumbent upon us to recast the glory of the beast! Sprout new, don't let me meet you, don't let me meet you, don't let me meet you, don't let me meet you, don't let me, ......"

What's the situation?

How are these veteran players different from what he thinks? Shouldn't you be very enthusiastic about teaching him how to play and sending him all kinds of strategies and teaching posts?

Xiao Ming was puzzled.

When he soaked in the game for two days and was ravaged by all kinds of old players, he understood why these old players in the forum were so excited to see Meng Xin.

Not good, fooled!

Xiao Ming wants a refund and leaves this terrifying world surrounded by countless old monsters, and Meng Xin can only be eaten as food by old players.

As a result, if the game time exceeds the limit, no refund will be given.

It's really sent!
