MTL - Underworld Game Producer-Chapter 33 could have been friends
Lei Chun was dumbfounded...
Li Wen posted a message on the scarf to celebrate the first day of sales breaking one million...
The Crescent Company he works for, the girl game series with the most fans, sold 200,000 on the first day, which is considered a Tianhu achievement.
When Xiaotian live-streamed Escape, he had concluded that the game would never have a high sales volume.
The game is scary, and not all players can bear it. (A new game from Amway, Female Ghost Bridge! It’s not bad. Anyway, I had a lot of fun playing hide-and-seek with female ghosts. It’s the most fun!)
Although he is not a well-known gamer, he has a good understanding of the game market, which is a must-have foundation for middle and high-level figures in every game company.
Therefore, it is also because of market reasons that no company will challenge the blank space in the market.
Although there are no pure horror games in the game market, there are other markets that can be used as a reference.
The film market is a good example for reference.
The box office of horror movies is impossible to match the box office of commercial movies.
The scarier the movie, the lower the box office...
This has also led to today's horror movies becoming more and more commercialized and less and less scary.
Even the film industry has begun to abandon horror. Li Wen's game dares to do this. Lei Chun can already predict the loss of escape sales.
When the game is not well received by the players, that is when his plan succeeds.
The higher you hold, the harder you fall...
However, he was still too young, and he never expected that Li Wen would hide such a trick at all.
Make a pure horror game multiplayer online.
With more people, the obviously scary game will become easier.
From time to time, a semi-mandatory five-player mode will be used to remind players to let them realize that this is a horror game and stimulate players' adrenaline.
All kinds of operations push a pure horror game to the top.
He admired Li Wen very much, very much.
He felt that they could have been friends.
But... now it's not possible!
...
The escape was a great success, and Chen Rui was discharged from the hospital safely. All the employees of Happy Paradise were very excited and happy.
At first, when Zhang Chunsheng heard that Li Wen was going to add an online mode to Escape, he didn't quite understand it.
After thinking about it for a long time, I think it is not impossible to join the online mode, and it is also very good for players to play monsters.
However, Li Wen's online mode is very different from the online mode he thought.
It's not that players play monsters, this form of PVP mode, but let players team up to explore.
He just felt baffled, after all, isn't the purpose of their escape is to scare the players so much that they don't even know their last name?
In this way, the team tried their best to create a terrifying atmosphere, isn't it all a waste?
He had argued with Li Wen about this issue. He felt that a pure horror game is to thoroughly show horror in front of every player.
He couldn't convince Li Wen, and Li Wen didn't convince him either.
If it weren't for his stubborn personality, he wouldn't be in his thirties and still be a small employee in the original company...
Later, the production team voted, and Li Wen won him by a narrow margin of one vote.
Well, since it is everyone's choice, he can only obey.
Looking at the million sales on the first day of Escape, Zhang Chunsheng is very happy, but fortunately Li Wen won.
Now he just wants to slap his stubborn self twice.
It wasn't until this moment that Zhang Chunsheng realized that they didn't make games to generate love, but to sell them.
The production team needs to understand the players, and also take the initiative to produce games that most players can accept.
You can't just go your own way and forcefully feed the player shit. (For example, a certain Golf 2, forcibly feeding shit, even when questioned by the players, the producer also said that the players are psychopaths, Zhuo!)
In addition, it is the first time that a pure horror game such as escape has appeared on the market. In order to better stimulate sales, it is a great choice to develop an online mode to reduce the level of horror.
By the way, the servers in the general online mode are provided by the platform.
Of course, game companies still need to do things like update the version and balance the game.
This is true of every platform.
Zhang Chunsheng apologized to Li Wen in front of all the staff.
At first, I thought there would be some kind of punishment, but I didn't expect Li Wen to settle the matter lightly.
Not only was he not targeted by Li Wen, but he even announced that he would continue to be the production team leader of Escape 2.
He has an indescribable touch, he is very comfortable now.
Why, he couldn't meet Li Wen when he just graduated, and it took him so many years to meet such a good boss.
He even had the idea that even Bai Gan would work for Li Wen.
! !
This kind of thought was interrupted by him just after it came out, it was too dangerous, such a thought was completely unacceptable...
Salary and bonuses are still needed.
Making games is a love and a dream, but life still has to go on, and there is no shortage of daily necessities.
"To celebrate the big sale of Escape, I personally pay for everyone to have a good meal!"
Just when Li Wen was about to announce a celebration party, Xiaotian's voice suddenly sounded at the door of the company.
He turned his head suspiciously to see that Xiao Tian was wearing a white dress, pure and lovely.
But, that's not the point.
The point is that his company held a celebration party, and an outsider came to join in the fun.
"As soon as I saw your scarf celebrating sales today, I came directly to the company. It's great! Congratulations."
One million copies on the first day, although not as good as those masterpieces from big manufacturers, is still very good, especially for a small company like Happy Paradise, one million copies is enough to make a lot of money.
What's more, this is only the first day.
In this world, the sales of games are generally based on the cumulative sales of the previous month.
After all, blockbusters are frequent, and new games will soon appear instead.
Unless it is a game of super high quality and enduring, it will be difficult to sell a large number of games after a month.
Unlike Li Wen's previous world, a game has been sold for ten years, and has sold more than 100 million copies, and it is still selling.
Various platforms, various resets, from PS3 to PS5...
That's right, it's exactly three men and one dog, give him love 5.
Now in Li Wen's world~www.novelbuddy.com~, it is impossible for him to give him love 5.
Even if it is an annual blockbuster game, it will disappear after selling for a year at most.
The main reason is that there are so many games that players can't play them at all. Basically, there are few players who are infinitely addicted to old games.
By the way, the most important point is.
The world where Li Wen lives, the planet where he lives, is much larger than the planet in his original world.
The world population, after statistics, has reached more than 15 billion.
Rich in resources... there are poor countries, but very few.
Coupled with the rapid development of the current level of technology, almost everyone has lived a life of adequate food and clothing.
This is why the game industry and other entertainment industries are so profitable.
Li Wen looked at Xiaotian speechlessly, "Well, you are also a member of our Happy Paradise, although you are a non-staff..."
"It's really ugly to say that it's non-staff or not." Xiaotian frowned.
"You came alone?" Li Wen looked behind her, but there was no one else at the door of the company.
"Yes." Little Sweets nodded.
"Since it's a celebration, wouldn't your live broadcast team come together? After all, without your live broadcast team, it would be impossible for Escape to get such a big publicity."
As soon as Li Wen said the words, Xiao Tian smiled and said, "My live broadcast team is already at the celebration, and now I need your escape production team."
Good guy.
That's really... thoughtful.
Li Wen smiled and signaled the escape production team to set off to celebrate the escape sale.
At this moment, Chen Rui quietly moved to Xiaotian's side, as if she wanted to say something...
