Night.
Qiao Liang quit "BEQUIET" and stretched.
There has been a lot of noise about this game on the Internet these days, but Qiao Liang did not participate. He just played the game silently.
Because he knew very well that there was no point in engaging in this argument.
Emotionally speaking, Qiao Liang is of course on Mr. Pei’s side.
Not only because Qiao Liang is Mr. Pei’s friend, but also because he is a hardcore gamer himself.
For these hard-core players, they pursue a more complex and extreme gaming experience. Whether it is the initial puzzle-solving activities or the eye-catching game that activates the purchase rights later, they are very suitable for Qiao Liang. appetite.
The key depends on how you look at it.
If you think of it as a threshold, a means to dissuade players, it is indeed quite uncomfortable; but if you think of it as a free game with a front-end, wouldn't it be enough?
"Lonely Desert Highway", "Game Maker", and eye-catching games are all free now, which Qiao Liang thinks is conscientious enough.
Qiao Liang knows very well that as a cultural product, games cannot be liked by everyone.
If some players think that the manufacturer is a conscientious manufacturer for making the games I like to play, and if the gameplay is not to my liking, I will abuse them without thinking, then it is definitely unreasonable.
Similarly, this time "BEQUIET" requires players to complete pre-requisite activities in order to obtain purchase rights. Although it objectively has the effect of dissuading players, this in itself is understandable.
Because Tenda has never promised that "players can purchase our games at will under any circumstances", of course, there is no need to promise.
The relationship between game manufacturers and players is only a two-way screening. Players can choose not to play a certain manufacturer's games, and manufacturers can also choose to give up part of the money in the players' hands, as long as the transaction itself is yours. What we want is not a forced purchase or sale. The status of both parties is equal, and no one can morally condemn the other.
What's more, Mr. Pei, a maverick designer, is not originally a character who kneels down to players.
So, emotionally speaking, Qiao Liang supports Mr. Pei’s behavior.
As a manufacturer, we provide players with high-quality games at very favorable prices, and even made the previous two games free. However, because of the pre-requisites for purchasing the games, we have to Get scolded?
Obviously it makes no sense.
However, having said that, Qiao Liang still feels that there is something difficult to understand about this matter.
Although setting this precondition is completely free for the manufacturer, is it necessary?
What benefits can this move bring to manufacturers?
This is the question that Qiao Liang cannot understand.
At this time, he frowned and was trying to use himself to PeiGeneral understanding and solution to this puzzle.
“It seems to me that Mr. Pei’s behavior is not ‘Do you like to play or not’, but ‘If you can’t even solve this simple little problem, then you definitely can’t do anything about it. Have fun in the game, so you might as well not buy it."
"This feeling seems familiar."
"Where have you seen it before?"
p>"..."
"I know! It's in "Back to Shore"!"
Qiao Liang suddenly realized that the same is true for "Back to Shore"!
It’s just that one is to persuade you to quit after entering the game, one is to persuade you to quit before entering the game, one is to refund after being abused, and the other is to simply stop paying after being abused.
Mr. Pei’s behavior this time is actually to put the persuasion stage of "Return to the Shore" before purchasing the game!
Qiao Liang suddenly realized.
"Yes, in this way, everything makes sense!"
"Mr. Pei's move is actually the same as the operation of "Return to the Shore", except that it is changed ”
“Games are an interactive art. Simply put, designers are the ones who create puzzles, and players are the ones who solve them.”
< p>"The essence of hard-core games is that only by giving up can you gain.""Abandoning those superficial and superficial spiritual pursuits can achieve profound and deep spiritual pursuits!"
" p>
"Just like "Return to the Shore", first you have to be abused, you have to endure the frustration of dying like a dog, you have to give up the pleasure of mindlessly enjoying the game and mowing the grass, and calm down to seriously hone your skills. Technology."
"After that, you can grow in the game and get a pleasure that is completely different from other games."
"This is about giving in and delaying enjoyment. Without the high difficulty of the game, players would not be able to obtain the pleasure of growing up."
"The same is true for the game "BEQUIET". It is also a game that requires giving up and giving up first. Take some time to suppress your desire to play the game and think carefully about solving these puzzles, and then you can truly appreciate the fun of this game."
"As for why the specific methods of the two games are different. ..."
"This is obvious. Because "Back to the Shore" is a stand-alone game, it will not affect other people's gaming experience. "
< p>"If a player who is completely unsuited to this game mode enters this game, it will inevitably interfere with other people's gaming experience.""In order to ensure everyone's gaming attitude, the game The IQs are roughly at the same level. To ensure that the vast majority of people can enjoy the game and not have the game experience ruined by some teammates who are not adapted to the gameplay, a simple 'training' must be conducted for all players... ”
Qiao Liang became more and moreI am sure that I have understood Mr. Pei’s true meaning!
This is the truth, but to convince everyone, you need to find some materials in the game.
Moreover, it seems a bit premature to disclose all this now.
On the one hand, he has not yet fully understood the complex game mechanics of "BEQUIET", and currently does not have enough video materials, and the copywriting is relatively dry; on the other hand, the controversy over this game has not yet reached its peak. .
After thinking about it, Qiao Liang decided to continue playing the game and collecting materials in the past few days.
Wait until next week, he will update a video on "The Work of the Gods" to talk about "BEQUIET", an unusual online horror game, and Mr. Pei's efforts to promote it. What kind of meaning does the designed ARG game have?
I believe that by then, many players’ problems with this game and their misunderstandings about Mr. Pei will be solved!
……
……
Monday, March 14th.
Chang You was pacing back and forth in the office, very anxious.
On the mobile phone details page on the official website of OTTO Technology, the button has changed from "booking" to "buy".
It seems to be a good thing that there is no need to snatch the mobile phone, but this is not the case for Chang You.
Because this also means that mobile phones are a bit unsaleable!
All the money received from selling mobile phones has been used to restock the stock. Now OTTO Technology can be described as penniless.
If it were another company, it would definitely not be able to do this.
Chang You knows very well that OTTO Technology now relies on a big tree to enjoy the shade, and Mr. Pei is behind it, so he dares to stock up like this.
But it is precisely because of this that Chang You feels even more ashamed of Mr. Pei.
How can we sell these more than 10,000 mobile phones!
But Mr. Pei specifically told Changyou to just take care of the stocking and leave everything else alone. He could neither proactively consider marketing nor reduce the price of mobile phones.
So much so that Chang You could only sit anxiously in his seat.
He didn’t even dare to read the comments online. He was always known as the “big mouth” and he used to have excellent psychological quality, but now he has difficulty withstanding the cynicism because he has the trust of Mr. Pei. .
Chang You was pacing uneasily in the room when his cell phone rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was Hu Xianbin calling.
Chang You’s eyes instantly lit up and he quickly picked it up.
"Mr. Chang, the GOG mobile game version is going to be officially launched tomorrow. Didn't we agree to cooperate before? Let me remind you." Hu Xianbin's voice came from the phone.
Chang You was overjoyed: "Okay, no problem! I immediately ordered them to do it according to the plan prepared before!"
Hu Xianbin said again: "I also followed Zhang just now Director Lin from Foreign Games got on the phone.They had been busy with the research and development of "BEQUIET" before and had little time, but now they should have prepared promotional activities for "Blooded War Song". You can call and ask and we can update together tomorrow. ”
Chang You hurriedly said: “Okay, okay, I’ll ask right away!” ”
After hanging up the phone, Chang You directly dialed Lin Wan’s number and got a positive reply. The people at Yangyang Games had already prepared a promotional event for OTTO mobile phones in the game “Hot Blooded War Song”. .
Chang You felt relieved instantly, and at the same time he felt a little moved.
Tengda is really a warm family!
What is the core competitiveness of Tenda? In the final analysis, it is games!
The game business is the guarantee for Tenda’s survival and is also the foundation for all other businesses.
Chang You knows very well that for Mr. Pei. For example, Moyu Internet Cafe, Headwind Logistics, OTTO mobile phones... these businesses can all lose money, but only games cannot lose money!
This time, we can win over Tenda Game Department’s new game GOG for our own mobile phones. Developing an exclusive high frame rate mode was a reassurance for Chang You.
Chang You immediately informed his staff to replace all the promotional materials that had been prepared before!
p>
For example, adding a large page to the product details page of the OTTOE1 mobile phone: Tenda's new game "Glory of God" is a GOG designated mobile phone, with exclusive in-depth optimization and ultra-high frame rate mode, bringing you an unprecedented and hearty experience. Game experience!
These promotional materials have been prepared early, but they cannot be released before.
Because GOG has not yet completed the development, this information cannot be disclosed.
But now, it can finally be used!
In fact, the GOG PC version is still under development and testing, but Li Yada had already decided on it before going on the trip! , the GOG mobile game version must be launched first.
Currently, the functions of the mobile game version and the PC game version are not completely synchronized. The mobile game version has slightly less content and can be launched one week in advance.
< p>At the same time, making the mobile game version first can also avoid ioi's current strong position in the field of PC games.Chang You was originally looking forward to whether Lin Wan could also make "BEQUIET". It was planned to be made into a mobile game, but Lin Wan said that there was not enough development time, and it would be difficult to change the operating mode of "BEQUIET" into a mobile game, so he could only give it up for the time being.
Chang You even hoped to make it a mobile game. Successful games such as "Sea Fortress" were also moved to the mobile game platform, but they were also abandoned because Tenda Games and Yangyang Games couldn't spare their staff.
But Chang You is not in a hurry, since they are all owned by Tenda anyway. If you change the game early and late, you will be the one who gets the credit.
Although only "War Song" and GOG can provide exclusive optimization and high frame rate mode, it is enough.
Due to some historical issues, "Hot Blood"There are still a lot of hidden rich people in "War Hymn", and their daily purchasing power is extremely suppressed, because it is difficult to spend money in this game.
If there is an advertisement for OTTO mobile phone in the game, someone will definitely be interested!
After everything was arranged, Chang You didn’t panic anymore.
He seemed to understand a little bit why Mr. Pei had always emphasized to him not to do marketing or reduce prices by himself, but to seize the time and stock up like crazy.
Because soon, OTTO mobile phones will usher in a sales explosion!
