Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 589 "Fantasy Westward Journey" vs "Blood Sword Heroes"; Exploring a mature road to heavy krypton
The download speed of the game is quite fast.

Tian Moyun opened "The Legend of the Blood Sword Hero" for a trial play. He first went through the novice tutorial as usual, and then looked at the recharge area.

The official version of "Blood Sword Heroes" is very different from the public beta version. The experience of the whole process has been upgraded to a higher level. It can be seen that they have done a lot of optimization work.

In addition, the core is the recharge area of ​​this game.

After Tian Moyun opened it, he could see a variety of products inside, including those with level-up experience, skill books, materials for forging equipment, and spirits that can increase combat power. You can also upgrade and equip weapons, skill books, and even advance, which is somewhat similar to "Pokémon".

In addition to these commodities that increase combat power, there are also clothing, mounts and other special effects, as well as some things exclusive to local tyrants, such as tokens for building a city, a small speaker for the world channel, a big speaker for the world, etc...

In addition, there is also a marriage system. To get married, you need to spend money to "apply a certificate", you need to buy a marriage proposal, a ring, a honeymoon, a whole city/full server celebration...

The whole game has almost reached the extreme of krypton gold, there is nothing that cannot be bought here... Well, to be precise, there is nothing that can be bought without money here.

The whole game can be summed up in one sentence: If you have money to dominate the world, if you have no money, you are not as good as pigs and dogs.

Translated into adult words is: no money to play with your mb!

"Is this the rich man's world?"

Tian Moyun gasped.

He admitted that he was a little surprised. According to the gameplay of "Blood Sword Heroes", if you want to get the best game experience, you must not charge 800 million.

This is to catch the local tyrant and fuck him to death!

"I probably need to upgrade the recharge channel."

Tian Moyun suddenly remembered something.

Right now, netizens have to go through the [Starry Sky Recharge Card] when recharging. Generally, recharging a few hundred yuan is okay, but recharging too much is very troublesome.

It's just that the market demand for "large recharge cards" is too low, and it has been ignored for a long time.

But now I have to pay attention.

If the game "Blood Sword Heroes" is really revived by [Fengyun Game], it will definitely be troublesome for local tyrants to recharge.

This will not work!

Such a big bug must be fixed!

Although he doesn't care about the profit of a third-party game, he has no reason not to want this kind of pie that fell from the sky.

So, Tian Moyun hurriedly called Zhou Yunteng.

"Large recharge card? Is 2000 yuan considered a large amount?"

Zhou Yunteng said casually: "At the beginning of the year, at the request of some consumers and software manufacturers, we launched recharge cards with a denomination of 1000 yuan and 2000 yuan, which can fully meet the needs of 9% of local tyrants. It is inconvenient, and it is difficult for relevant departments to give us approval.”

"..."

Tian Moyun raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.

This is a problem.

Up to now, the recharge card of 2000 yuan is already the limit. If it is higher, you have to directly make a recharge card of 5000 yuan or 1 yuan, and Daxia officials will not allow it.

Because if the denomination of the recharge card is too high, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble, which no one wants to see.

"Has the maximum recharge card reached 2000 yuan? I still want to tell you something."

Tian Moyun thought for a while: "I'd like to ask you a question. If a player wants to recharge an account with 10 yuan, what should he do?"

Recharge 10 yuan.

If you use a recharge card with a face value of 2000 yuan, you need to recharge it about 50 times, which is definitely torture for local tyrants.

People play games for fun, not to experience the process of scratching the card and entering the recharge code.

"It's very simple."

Zhou Yunteng didn't even think about it, so he said: "You go to the offline store and tell the boss that you need to recharge 10 yuan, and he immediately treats you like a father with a smile on his face, scraping the card for you to enter the recharge code, while drinking Waiting for you, maybe there is a young lady who will strike up a conversation with you, ask you if you want to play games with you, so that you can enjoy the VVIP treatment all the way... If you want to recharge more, we also provide a connection with the bank Service, with exclusive customer service and exclusive channels to provide assistance, to ensure that local tyrants can experience the pleasure of being at home.”

Speaking of this, Zhou Yunteng smiled: "Mr. Tian, ​​don't you think that you need to do it yourself to recharge the local tyrants?"

"..."

Tian Moyun was silent for a long time: "Are you laughing at me?"

"I do not have."

"You have, I heard it."

"What do you want to do?"

"Go to the finance department and fine yourself 500 yuan. The reason for the fine: harassing a male subordinate."

"..."

……

Tian Moyun silently hung up the phone.

I thought I had discovered a shocking bug, but Zhou Yunteng and others had already solved this problem.

This makes him seem redundant, embarrassing, and uncomfortable, and he needs to randomly punish a lucky employee to soothe his restless heart.

After that, Tian Moyun no longer cared about the issue of recharging.

He continued to play the game, and soon found some gorgeous players. Without exception, these people were RMB fighters full of talent.

"This game is so cool and enjoyable to play!"

"I just charged 1 yuan and bought a full set of top-level clothing. This feeling is great."

"Playing a game and charging so much, it's sick."

"Hehe, what do poor coins know? You are proud if you don't recharge it? If you have the ability to come to the wild area, Dad will definitely make you doubt your life."

"I just studied the gameplay, and I understand that the more you recharge, the stronger you become. Hahaha, I want to be the champion of the combat power list and crush you a bunch of poor coins."

"Fuck, who is afraid of whom?"

In the communication list of the game, you can see these messages from time to time.

Local tyrants fight against the crowd, and one person can crush hundreds of ordinary players. At this moment, the powerful charm of RMB is fully displayed.

"Are they all so fierce?"

Tian Moyun thought of something, checked the combat power list and recharge list in the game, and was speechless for a long time.

"Excessive profits."

He sighed softly.

No wonder so many game makers in previous lives were addicted to heavy krypton online games and couldn’t extricate themselves. It’s really scary to make money with this stuff.

The cost of a mere few million, combined with the tens of millions of publicity and distribution costs, can achieve a monthly income of hundreds of millions of terrorist revenue.

There is no such thing as a bully for robbing a bank.

certainly--

Surprise is nothing but surprise, Tian Moyun never thought of doing this.

If he had just entered the industry at the beginning, he would probably have thought of making a heavy krypton online game to attract money like crazy.

But now, he is no longer short of money, so naturally he can't afford to compete with the other party for such a little food. Besides, this thing has a bad reputation. The history of heavy krypton game producers can easily scare new players.

……

Silently quit "Legend of the Blood Sword Hero".

Then, Tian Moyun opened his new game "Fantasy Westward Journey".

Compared with the former "Legend" imitation style, the cartoon style "Fantasy Westward Journey" is another completely different style.

After passing the novice tutorial, Tian Moyun started to team up with others to do multiplayer tasks, directly choose to hang up to follow, and then browse the world channel news of the first batch of players.

The world channel in "Fantasy Westward Journey" also needs a small speaker to send messages.

Although Tian Moyun doesn't care about this little profit, he also hopes to maintain the number of messages on the world channel through the small speaker, so as to avoid the situation of hundreds of messages per second, which is very damaging to the game environment.

Therefore, the price of the small speaker has been adjusted, and a message is 0.1 yuan, which is the same as sending a text message.

Although the price is low, it is enough for players to restrain themselves and not send messages unscrupulously, affecting the game environment.

Especially a group of leopard head (zero charge) players, if there is no speech restriction, their messages can cause the server to crash in minutes.

After all, as we all know, zero-charging players are just like pirated readers, with no contribution and many nonsense thieves...

"This game is very interesting, and it feels more fun than "Legend of Hot Blood"."

"Indeed, the main reason is that it's not as exciting as "Legend of Hot Blood". It's quite relaxing and not tiring to play."

"I just transferred from "Blood Sword" next door, and I was scared by "Blood Sword". Free game? Free shit, even if you don't charge money, even if you are exhausted, you can't compare with krypton gold players."

"I was also frightened. I thought it was the same in "Fantasy". I looked at the mall as soon as I entered the game, and I was relieved to find that it was not as scary as the next door."

""Blood Sword" is really not for people to play. Look at the World Channel, all the arrogant local tyrants, rushing for hundreds of thousands without getting a face."

"In comparison, "Fantasy Westward Journey" is more conscientious. At least this level of krypton liver and krypton gold is acceptable. Next door is a local tyrant identification device."

"Is "Blood Sword" so scary? I haven't played it yet, and I dare not play it after being told by you."

"Don't play! Listen to me, unless you are a boss who can earn 5 figures a month, otherwise, you don't even have the slightest gaming experience in the game."

"As far as the game atmosphere of "Blood Sword" is concerned, is five digits of krypton a month really enough? I'm afraid it's just barely surviving, right? It can barely look a little dignified."

"Indeed... If you really want to call the wind and rain in "Blood Sword", you can guarantee a 7-figure start for a month, and if you want to play, weigh your wallet yourself, don't slap your face and pretend to be fat."

"Hearing what you said, I didn't dare to experience it, so I quickly uninstalled "Blood Sword"."

"Actually... I still recommend you to experience it. It is best to play more, because only in this way will you understand the beauty of "Fantasy Westward Journey."

"Ahem, that's too much."

"I just took a look at it. "Fantasy Westward Journey" has no way to directly buy combat power, but you can buy experience packs to save time, and there is a daily limit on the number."

"That's a good point. No matter how much money the local rich players spend, they won't be much better than us. It can be balanced back with a bit of liver."

"What if the local tyrant can kryptonite and liver? What if the local tyrant finds a power leveling? What if the local tyrant spends money to hire a team to protect himself? Can you understand the world of the local tyrant?"

"Too much..."

"I feel that "Fantasy Westward Journey" is not like a game of fighting power. Those costumes and mounts are very good-looking. I couldn't help it, so I bought it. It's comfortable..."

"Yes, that's right. In the game store of "Fantasy Westward Journey", there are various costumes, mounts, and special effects. They don't increase the combat power very much, but they are really good-looking."

……

The world channel of "Fantasy Westward Journey", players are quite satisfied with this game.

As for the "Legend of the Blood Sword Knight" next door, it has become the object of their ridicule.

Of course, the other side also despises "Fantasy Westward Journey", thinking that this turn-based gameplay is too backward... Well, let's despise each other.

"Fortunately."

Tian Moyun already knew it in his heart.

"These two games vaguely complement each other. They set off each other, and they can barely be regarded as a win-win situation... although they are not of the same size."

Although [Fengyun Games] next door has been brazen enough to forcibly benchmark the two games, the publicity cost of "Fantasy Westward Journey" is not random, and its popularity is still far higher than that of "Blood Sword Heroes" by more than several times , the players here are not too interested in experiencing another game.

Even, it is precisely because of the addition of "The Legend of the Blood Sword Knight" that "Fantasy Westward Journey" appears to be particularly conscientious.

It is also a free online game, but "Fantasy Westward Journey" is still very friendly to ordinary players.

You only need to spend a few tens of yuan a month, and opening a daily treasure box and a monthly treasure box can easily achieve the effect of a krypton gold boss, even more conscientious than the "Legend of Blood" with a point card/monthly card system.

The model of "Blood Sword Heroes" has attracted a large number of rich players, and these people will constitute more than 90% of the profits of "Blood Sword", which is very dissuading for ordinary players.

In general--

Regardless of word-of-mouth, profitability, and game life, "Fantasy Westward Journey" is far better than "Blood Sword Heroes", which is beyond doubt.

Speaking of longevity...

Tian Moyun suddenly thought of a question.

The operation mode of "Blood Sword Heroes" is unacceptable to most ordinary players, and if these ordinary players withdraw, then only local rich players are left to compete with each other, which is meaningless, local wealthy think I'm bored, just retreat and leave, and the game will directly become a ghost suit (no one is there).

"I don't know how [Fengyun Game] will solve this problem?"

Tian Moyun thought silently.

In his case, there are many ways to solve this problem.

In his previous life, the game he was most exposed to was the krypton gold online game, and he had heard of a lot of heavy krypton online games.

I still have some ideas about the operating models of these games. For example, the original "Journey", even the "Legend" in the collapse period, and the later "Wan Lanyue"... are all excellent classic cases, not Knowing... the manufacturers in the parallel world, are the methods he thought of consistent with what he is familiar with?
"I hope it can bring me some surprises."

……

7 month 2 day.

It has been 24 hours since the game was launched.

[Fengyun Game Official Account] The first time to send good news: ""Blood Sword" has a total revenue of more than 24 million yuan in the past 900 hours! Thank you very much for the support and love of the players, and thank you very much for your valuable suggestions. We will continue to work hard and let "Blood Sword" accompany you all the way with the most sincere sincerity and heart."

A simple Weibo post blew up the entire gaming circle!
"The 24-hour revenue is so much, so it can't break two to three hundred million in a month?"

"I'll go, is this rubbish game really played?"

"No, no, actually someone actually played this broken game, and even recharged it?"

"Are all local tyrants who play "Blood Sword" so crazy? Nearly [-] million livers a day... I underestimated the krypton gold ability of local rich players."

"I predicted before that this game would end badly, but now it seems that I will be slapped in the face."

"Fuck, this kind of bad game can be used to make money? But there are still a large group of fools who buy it. Is the game industry really just picking up money with sacks?"

"I can't accept it. Our whole team has worked hard to develop a game for a year, and we only earned a few million, which is not as good as someone's income for two days..."

"I played this game yesterday, and uninstalled it in less than half an hour. It's the first time I've seen such a bad game. I didn't expect it to actually make money."

"So much money has been put into the game? Isn't it good to donate it to the mountains?"

"Are the officials so hypocritical? Why do you thank everyone for their valuable suggestions? Whose opinion do you adopt? Can you accept it if you scold you for being ugly?"

"Indeed, what's the most sincere sincerity and heart... I played for half an hour, but I didn't see where the sincerity lies. My heart is so dark."

"At first, I was thinking about gritting my teeth and recharging one or two hundred for fun, but it turned out...hehe, I couldn't afford it, so I slipped away."

"Such a lousy game can make a lot of money? Those manufacturers who are serious about making games should cry..."

"I don't know how much the revenue of "Fantasy Westward Journey" next door is. It can't be inferior to such a bad game as "Blood Sword", right?"

"It's hard to say... "Fantasy" doesn't have many krypton elements, just a little charging is enough, how can it compare with "Blood Sword"?"

"In the past, the quality of games was distinguished by sales, but now... I can't believe it."

"A game as bad as "Blood Sword" can earn nearly [-] million a day, and novels dare not write like that."

Netizens rushed to tell each other, feeling incredible.

……

"A 24-hour revenue of 900 million yuan?"

Tian Moyun was not surprised, and asked casually, "How much is the 24-hour revenue of "Fantasy Westward Journey"?"

"2700 million, exactly three times that of "Blood Sword"."

Zhou Yunteng replied.

Tian Moyun nodded slightly, and thought for a few seconds: "Don't expose the 24-hour revenue of "Fantasy Westward Journey". In addition, let's make "Blood Sword" more popular, focusing on the daily income of 900 million, and blowing it into a big hit. A new outlet for online games."

Isn't this a fool!

Zhou Yunteng thought to himself.

But when he thought about it again, this really wasn't a scam.

No matter "Blood Sword" or "Fantasy Westward Journey", as free-to-play online games, their profitability is better than traditional fee-based online games.

Tian Moyun deliberately hid "Fantasy Westward Journey", and then used "Blood Sword" to explore the market, probably because he wanted to attract others.

What is throwing bricks to attract jade?

Released the news that "Blood Sword" received 900 million a day, attracting more manufacturers to participate, exploring the free online game market together, and let them fight fiercely through the method of "raising Gu", and finally explored a mature free online game road. road.

Tian Moyun is not interested in participating. This market is clearly reserved for other game manufacturers, and it depends on who can have the last laugh.

As for "Fantasy Westward Journey"?
The profit model of "Fantasy Westward Journey" is very successful, far better than "Blood Sword", but Tian Moyun has to hide his clumsiness, giving people a feeling that it is far inferior to "Blood Sword".

In this way, profit-seeking game makers will inevitably focus on the "winner" of "Blood Sword", and then dig deeper into the profit model of "krypton gold = becoming stronger".

Is this profit model the future direction of development?
Zhou Yunteng thinks it is not, and even, this is very likely to be a wrong way of no return.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Tian Moyun to watch the show so calmly, and even take the initiative to add fun to them without participating in it himself.

"Let them fight. It would be interesting if there are top manufacturers involved."

Tian Moyun smiled lightly.
