Chapter 450 The Soul of Darkness VS Super Vision
"It's a pity to let players abandon the pit like this... It would be great if we could keep this part of the players."

"I want to suggest again, boss, let's add a difficulty adjustment to the game?"

"Because the game development progress is less than half, there is still time to modify the difficulty. It will be very troublesome to temporarily add difficulty adjustments after more than half of the production."

Xiaokui is a little anxious because she is worried that some players will abandon the pit because of the difficulty.

But Liu Xiong will naturally not have the same troubles.

"It is impossible to adjust the difficulty, and it is impossible to adjust it in this life."

"The unified high difficulty is one of the core elements of our "Dark Soul", and it is also one of the biggest labels of the game."

"If compromises are added to adjusting the difficulty ... then one of the biggest signs of the game is tantamount to giving up."

"You don't think that other high-difficulty ARPGs on the market are really completely helpless?"

"Not to mention, Penguin's new game must be a very strong opponent... Now the development progress of Penguin's new game should be almost halfway, don't we take the initiative to crash the car and never fight, that would be ridiculous. "

Although Penguin's new game has not been officially completed, rumors have spread that Penguin's new game is a sci-fi action game, but it has not yet been officially named.

Liu Xiong said seriously to Xiaokui: "Our opponent is not weak, so our "Dark Soul" must maintain its own characteristics."

"In some places we can cater to the market, but in some places we must stick to our original intention. Sometimes, if you compromise, it means you are mediocre."

Xiaokui nodded, glanced at Liu Xiong, and said, "Uh... well, I understand the boss, but there are some players who are reluctant to give up."

……

In the following days, Feimeng and Penguin worked behind closed doors.

Soon Feimeng's "Dark Soul" will be completed soon.

Estimating the progress, it is reasonable to say that the Penguin side is about to be completed, and if the speed is fast, it may have been completed.

But Penguin is still hiding it. Although a lot of information about the type and characteristics of the game has been released, the game has no official name, and the release date is still undecided.

Liu Xiong understood that Penguin was waiting, waiting for him to make the first move, and then they would make the second move.

It doesn't matter, Liu Xiong feels that with the quality of "Dark Soul", if you hit the first move, you will get the first move.

So a meeting was called, and Liu Xiong said: "According to the calculation, "Dark Soul" should be completed in about 15 days, then I think about it and think that the game should be released as soon as possible."

"After 25 days, let's set it as the release date of "Dark Soul"."

"We're going to be leaking a lot of stuff about Dark Souls these days and start building momentum for the game."

"The price of the game is still at a relatively low price."

Seeing Xiaokui's frown tightly, Liu Xiong hastily added, "This low price is only relative."

"The previous "Meteor Butterfly Sword" was not a very complete work, so we set a low price."

"But "Dark Soul" is a very complete and excellent work, so naturally the price will not be too low."

"I think the price is 248 yuan, which should be a price that can make players feel cheap and cost-effective, and we won't suffer too much."

Hearing Liu Xiong say that "Dark Soul" was priced at 248 yuan, Xiao Kui finally felt satisfied, so she didn't say any more.

But Xiaolin asked Liu Xiong, "Now Penguin's new game is still very mysterious, and we still don't know much information."

"We are now announcing a lot of information about "Dark Soul" including pricing and release date, so if Penguin targets us, won't we be very passive?"

Liu Xiong smiled: "Target? I'm afraid Penguin will target me? I wish Penguin would come and confront my Dark Souls!"

Hi Dog raised another possibility: "If Penguin adopts an attitude of avoiding war and deliberately staggers the launch with our "Dark Soul", what should we do?"

Liu Xiong said disapprovingly: "Don't panic if you have food in your hands. I have the excellent game "Dark Soul", so naturally I won't be afraid of penguins."

"If Penguin is on the market first... I don't think this possibility is very high, because "Dark Soul" has only been on the market for 25 days, and Penguin has not made any moves yet."

"Penguin is the first to go on the market, so we will also speed up the progress and adjust the price appropriately, so that Penguin's game will be cut down quickly after it goes on the market."

"If Penguin chooses to avoid us, then don't worry... because it is impossible for Penguin to make a game that will not be launched, and they can delay the launch for a month or two at most."

"At that time, it was still within the sales cycle of our "Dark Soul". As long as "Dark Soul" is popular enough, it can completely seize the main market."

"Penguins... will face the embarrassment of having no market at that time, and that situation will be even worse."

Everyone agreed with Liu Xiong's words.

Indeed, as long as the quality of his "Dark Soul" is good enough, Fei Meng will not be afraid at all no matter what he does with Penguin.

On the Penguin side, as more and more information about "Dark Soul" is released, Penguin has also begun to act.

In Penguin's internal meeting, the core members of Penguin were discussing the listing strategy of "All People's Vision".

"National Vision" is the name of Penguin's new high-difficulty action RPG. It has been kept secret before, and only has a code name.

But now, this confidentiality regulation has been lifted.

After careful analysis and discussion at the meeting, Rong Guanjun made a concluding speech.

"It seems that Feimeng's "Dark Soul" game is very difficult, which is fine, after all, there are many difficult action games in the world."

"As for the level of the action system of "Dark Soul"? We don't know this for the time being, but it can be imagined to be very top-level."

"But everyone has analyzed the flaws of "Dark Soul" before."

"As a hardcore action game with high difficulty, there is no option to adjust the difficulty of the game? This is bold, but it is very unwise."

"If the game difficulty of "Dark Soul" is equivalent to the highest difficulty of our "National Vision", what does it mean?"

"It means that 99% of the players will die again and again in the game. They will die countless times in the face of the boss, and the soldiers who pass by by chance will be easily killed."

"There are very few players who can successfully pass the level with fewer deaths."

"And we know that there are many, many players who will be depressed, angry and give up amid repeated deaths."
