Chapter 34 Hardcore Games
Fujiwara Miki curled her lips and said: "Men are all big pigs."

Kentaro Miyamoto could not say that she was completely wrong, but he did not agree with her one-sided statement: "This is how God designed men. Besides, humans!

Who doesn’t have some personal hobbies?Take Takuma, for example, in your mind, he is not a good person.In fact, your understanding of him is quite one-sided.

Although Takuma is lustful, the most he uses is inducement, and he has never used coercion against any girl from beginning to end.

In addition, he is also very loyal to his friends.As long as it is within the scope of his personal ability, he will never refuse. "

Fujiwara Miki blurted out: "Your personal hobby is playing games."

Miyamoto Kentaro suddenly smiled and said: "Is it possible that you want me to play with women?"

Fujiwara Miki glared at him without hesitation: "I really don't know what's so fun about games? Especially this one from FS called "Armored Core 6: Realm Skyfire"."

Kentaro Miyamoto smiled unchanged and said: "Games like Armored Core 6: Skyfire are often classified as hard-core games by players. In other words, this type of game is more complex and difficult to get started.

One of the most prominent features of hardcore games is that they are designed to be as realistic as possible.In the entire game chain of contempt, this person is at the upper end of the chain.

You want to play Armored Core 6: Realm Skyfire well.First of all, you must master a series of operations such as braking and emergency braking. "

Fujiwara Miki said casually: "I'm afraid the entire RB and FS club prefer to do the hard-core games you call them."

Kentaro Miyamoto waved his hand and said: "No, no, the overall operation difficulty of Koei Co., Ltd.'s "Nioh", especially "Nioh 2", is higher than that of FS's "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice"."

Fujiwara Miki didn't understand and said: "You must be sick!"

Kentaro Miyamoto patiently explained: “I told you before, one of the biggest features of hardcore games is the sense of realism.

This will inevitably lead to high requirements for operation. It is important to seize the opportunity to make moves, block, etc. After all, killing the enemy is not an easy task.

It really feels like playing Koei Co., Ltd.'s "Dynasty Warriors" series, where one person with a heroic halo can rush into a large number of people and kill indiscriminately. "

Fujiwara Miki asked: "Isn't this bad? I think it's quite fun."

Kentaro Miyamoto said bluntly: "Games like the "Dynasty Warriors" series are naturally not hard-core games. Koei Co., Ltd. is the best at making China's Three Kingdoms history.

Even among Chinese game companies, no one can match their own history.The reason why Koei Co., Ltd. does this is mainly because RB people like China's Three Kingdoms history very much. "

Fujiwara Miki still couldn't understand: "Is it worth spending a lot of time on games?"

Kentaro Miyamoto once said: "If you like it, it feels worthwhile. If you don't like it, you think it is a waste of time and life, which is meaningless.

Just like in the eyes of us boys, you girls spending so much time aimlessly shopping without buying anything is a waste of time. Fujiwara Miki said: "How can it be the same?"For girls, the joy of aimlessly shopping...cannot be explained to you.

My understanding of games is that they belong to the entertainment category.In my opinion, hardcore games are exactly the opposite. People don’t play games, but games play people. "

Kentaro Miyamoto knew that he could not convince her, and she could not convince herself: "I can only say that you have not truly realized the fun of hardcore games.

However, it is quite normal.There are many ordinary players who buy hardcore games as soon as they see that the PV is very good.

The tragic result is that I can't play anymore.Hardcore games aren't just available on Sony's PS. It’s also available on PC.There is an online game called "EVE" that is a hardcore game.

It was born in 2003, and even though almost 20 years have passed, it still has many loyal fans.What does this mean?
Every time it is mentioned by its fans, they always talk about it with relish.Hardcore games are not only highly playable, but also highly cohesive.It's not as outdated as most non-hardcore games.

Many games have been around for two years, let alone 20 years, and no one will play them.Mobile games are being phased out and forgotten even faster. "

He paused here and then added: "Of course, there are exceptions. "Fate/Grand Orde", also known as "FGO", is an evergreen tree among mobile games.

So far, its monthly turnover is quite impressive. This mobile game was born in 2015. To be fair, it’s really not that good.

In mobile card drawing games, a guarantee mechanism will be adopted.That is to say, no matter how many times you draw it, a certain one will definitely come out.Even "Genshin Impact", which is currently popular with RB, is no exception.

Otherwise, just collect as many props as you can and exchange them directly.However, "FGO" does not have any guarantee mechanism.Theoretically, once it's not, there's no upper limit, and you can't get what you want no matter what. "

Fujiwara Miki expressed her doubts and said: "If that's the case, then why are there so many people playing? I believe these people are not just stupid people with a lot of money!"

Kentaro Miyamoto said eloquently: "FGO also has good points. Apart from making money by drawing cards, there is basically no place to make money.

One of the most important reasons for its enduring popularity is the anime series "Fate". The game "FGO" is originally a derivative of the "Fate" series of anime.

Players mainly make money for "FGO" because of the feelings of the "Fate" series of anime. Once the "Fate" series launches a new anime, it will inevitably increase the sales of "FGO".

Especially if a new anime released in the "Fate" series can explode in word-of-mouth, it can even take off the popularity of "FGO".

Furthermore, the "Witcher" series of games first became popular around the world, which then led to the sales of novels and the "Witcher" series invested and filmed by Netflix.

There is also "The Last of Us", which was also a game that became popular first, and then HBO invested in and filmed the American TV series of the same name, which has achieved both word-of-mouth and ratings.

What I’ve said to you so much is that although I didn’t listen to what you said about your business plan, it didn’t include these things!Animation, games, film and television, and novels are all related to each other and are by no means independent. "
