Build a game empire from scratch

These players immediately asked questions online, and quickly met people who had the same experience.

Then compare it with players using other devices, and immediately figure out what happened.

NetDragon's equipment refused to be compatible with Journey.

After reacting, they immediately began to yell, and those with strong actions rushed into the comment area of ​​NetDragon's latest news, adding a few more saliva to the already sprayed comment area.

But NetDragon's Consonance account, since the last time it was ridiculed, has not made any movement, just lying flat and mocking, as if it doesn't know anything.

As long as I don't see it, nothing happened.

Players using NetDragon equipment were furious, but there was nothing they could do. They could only log in to the major live streaming platforms and watch the demos of the anchors first.

Other players have entered the carnival stage ahead of time.

They open the game and enter the sea of ​​sand; they find runes and get scarves; they see murals and fly around...

But the excitement quickly cooled down.

They were a little confused: "What is this game about? Just looking for runes, looking at the scenery, and then climbing up the holy mountain in the distance?"

After a group of powerful party anchors rushed across the broken bridge non-stop and ended the trial level, they fell into silence.

Millions of viewers scattered in various live broadcast rooms also fell silent, and even felt confused.

They don't understand what's so fun about this game. Just a small man in a cloak, walk around, look for runes, touch the red cloth, and pass the level.

How can it be so cool to sweep around with a submachine gun, and the enemy on the opposite side falls down like mowing grass?

They had never played, or even seen, such a slow-paced, completely non-confrontational game.

As for the anchors who played it themselves, they didn't say that the game was bad.

They did feel fun when they played, but the fun was too short and not strong at all, and the key point stopped abruptly after it just started.

Let them boast, but they don't know where to start.

So I fell into an eerie silence together with the audience in embarrassment.

Is this the next generation game that Lin You has given high hopes for? Did he really not fool us?

Not only the players, but also people in the industry were confused after the trial.

This is the game that the virtual reality device will launch first?

A tourist simulator with no sensory stimulation, no fierce confrontation, and few interactive elements for players?

Although they know that the equipment they use must be backward compared to virtual reality equipment, and there is no way to show the full charm of the game.

However, no matter what they think, even if the consciousness of a real person infiltrates, isn't it still a trip to a desert?

Well, there is still a mountain behind, and there may be a different view.

But to keep players walking non-stop, it is still things like desert hiking and mountain climbing.

Is this really... interesting?

If the game itself is boring, will players still actively buy his equipment?

There are indeed many people who will buy it even to experience the real virtual reality, but such people, compared to the huge player group, are in the minority after all.

After all, it is impossible for so many people to spend real money, just to play in a virtual reality desert.

No matter how you think about virtual reality equipment, it will not be cheap. With that kind of money, it is enough to travel around the desert in reality.

But how many people are actually interested in traveling to the desert? Do you really think everyone is Sanmao?

They were confused, but NetDragon was overjoyed!

They even regretted it a little bit. If they had known that the game made by Lin You was such a stretch, there was no need to go to such lengths to block it! The brand image of NetDragon was lost in vain.

But the matter has come to this point, it is naturally impossible to cancel the ban again, so what do others think?

Oh, as soon as Lin You released the trial version of the game, NetDragon was so frightened that he quickly blocked it. It was later found that there was no threat, so I dared to release it.

In contrast, they would rather make players feel that "Netdragon is too domineering and can't tolerate opponents at all."

But these are details, they need to seize the rare opportunity to hit Lin You's new equipment sales plan.

"Zhang Heying!" NetDragon's young boss Zhao Yucheng called his name on the spot, "The task of contacting the media is left to you! Try to discuss it in advance as much as possible, and let all game media give him a low score! As low as you can! "

"This is very difficult. The ratings of the game media are their most important thing." Zhang Heying is very confused. Does this boss really understand nothing?

As long as some well-known game media score new games, it is not only their important source of profit, but also their reliance to some extent.

If you want to get full marks, as long as you have enough money, that's not a problem.

At most, I can explain afterwards: "Everyone's aesthetic preferences are different. The rating editor of this game really likes this game, so there is a certain amount of subjective favorability points."

It's not a big problem, players will scold for a few days at most, and they can do whatever they want in the future.

But if you dare to give an excellent game a super low score, that's another matter.

When you give a high score to an ordinary game, it may be due to different aesthetic preferences, or even because you have collected money. Players don’t take it too seriously, and they don’t doubt your professionalism.

But if you give an excellent game a super low score, players will directly doubt your professional level, question that you have no respect and love for the game at all, and are just a businessman who is purely making money.

This is quite a blow to the image and authority of the game media!

"So, it can't be done?" Zhao Yucheng stared at him.

"Yes, yes, but—" Zhang Heying explained, "you need to pay more."

"Then add it!" The young boss waved his hand, "Money is not a problem!"

At this time, Hu Rong, the planning director, suddenly interjected, "Although Lin You's game isn't good, its popularity is undeniable. In this case, why don't we use Dongfeng to promote "Flame 3" while attacking "Journeyman"? "

There is a reason why he is so active.

After Qin Songyun resigned, the planner of the Lie Yan team should have proposed the work "Lie Flame 3", but he cut it off because of his seniority. Now he has been given the title of chief planner of "Lie Flame 3".

Now as soon as I see a publicity opportunity, I immediately stand up.

One amount of money can serve two purposes, Zhao Yucheng thought it was a good deal, so he decided to agree.

Zhang Heying could only obey the boss's assignment and start working. He didn't know how many times he had done these things, and he couldn't do it smoothly.

There is money to clear the way, and the results appear quickly.

"Lin You, unqualified game producer?" became a hot word and appeared on the hot topic list of Consonance.

This is an article from "Game Star": "Lin You, an undoubted scientific genius, and an ordinary to mediocre game producer?"

At the beginning, the ranking of this hot word was not high, but with the joining of various media and batches of trolls, the ranking began to increase rapidly.

Compared with the rhythm of the previous time, this time the players did not rush over to defend Lin You desperately.

Because they did have this doubt in their hearts.

No one stipulates that a genius scientist must also become a genius game producer?

Maybe Lin You is such a talented scientist who can even make a technological breakthrough that attracts the attention of the world within a week, and also opens the door to the next era for gamers around the world.

But his contribution may only go so far, the way behind the door is not what he is good at.

This job needs another talented game producer to take on?
