The Trickster's Ninth Episode

However, the live broadcast still pays attention to popularity, so in the end, there are about three games that Amamiya Ren is interested in.

"Under the Legend" was released on September 2015, 9.Although the game was released two years ago, with this excellent plot, it is still enduring today. From being popular in a small circle to spontaneous word-of-mouth among players, there are more and more players, and the favorable rate Still high, can be described as a classic.

Most importantly, this game is Ren Amamiya's favorite supernatural work.

Since even Blank agrees that the plot is excellent, Ren Amamiya is naturally looking forward to this game.

Then there is another game "Little Nightmare" that Amamiya Ren has taken a fancy to. This game is quite special because it will only be released on April 2017, 4, which is the day before Golden Week.The advantage of choosing this game is that this is a 28% pure and fresh game, and this game also has a very interesting plot from the trailer, and there is a certain degree of surprise element.

This was followed by the final game, Hollow Knight, which was released on February 2017, 2.There is no doubt that "Dark Soul 25" is the darling of the game entertainment industry whether it is video or live broadcast, but Amamiya Ren can't take care of both the live broadcast software and "Dark Soul 3". "Knight" is undoubtedly the first choice.

Compared with "Under the Legend" which pushes the plot to the extreme, although the plot of "Hollow Knight" requires players to explore and understand by themselves, it is also exciting enough, and the style of painting is even higher than that of "Under the Legend", which means that passers-by The first sight will be better.In terms of gameplay, it has won the essence of soul games. There are various ways to play, you can show off operations, you can play strategies, and it can fully satisfy Ren Amamiya's shaping of a high-tech image.

Then after a blank introduction, the three games Ren Amamiya chose each have their own advantages. While they are suitable for live broadcasts, they also have their own advantages.

"Under the Legend", Ren Amamiya Ren's favorite excellent plot game, has a certain degree of difficulty in the game, and as a classic game, in 2017 today, although it is not so popular that it is so popular, at least in most eyes Li is already familiar.The advantage of story games is that even if you have already played or played it, you don’t mind watching others play it again.

"Little Nightmare" is a very domineering thriller and decryption independent game for the anchor. The current quality is unknown, but since Blank expresses approval, it is at least above the passing line.A brand new game that hasn't been released yet, and few people have played it.

"Hollow Knight", an excellent soul game, has always been a frequent visitor in the video of the game anchor. At present, it seems that this game is very good in all aspects, with few shortcomings, or the only shortcoming is its difficulty.But difficulty is both a disadvantage and an advantage. Although Ren Amamiya has never been pretentious, Lai Qixiao is the second best player in the world in the eyes of fans. Hardcore orientation is undoubtedly what people want, and it is also conducive to image building.If you don't look at the immediate pros and cons, but from a long-term perspective, this game may be the best choice at present.

So, which game should you choose?

☆Appendix☆

Ren Amamiya has always been indifferent to what game to play.

So I leave it to you to choose.Voting closes as the story progresses to April 4th. (Please don't get stuck in bugs, and don't brush the building alone)

"Under the Legend"

"Little Nightmare"

"Hollow Knight"

Chapter 180 Two Solicitation from Rainbow

(Nightmare decline is what I expected, but I didn't expect to ride out the dust. It seems that the voting deadline is meaningless.)

After initially determining the alternative plans for the three games, the first thing Ren Amamiya did was not to further understand the game content, but...

I checked how much each of the three games sold for.

Then I found out that none of the three games were discounted, which made me half-hearted.

Needless to say, "Little Nightmare" hasn't even been released yet; "Under the Legend" has been on sale for two years, and it's not a big factory masterpiece that is often promoted, so it depends on fate whether it is discounted or not; as for "Hollow Knight", it has only been released for two months The game, as a dark horse indie game with rave reviews, has not yet reached the time for discount promotion.

After all, discounts are only needed when games start to fail.

Generally speaking, for dark horse indie games like "Hollow Knight", the discount time is about nine to twelve months after the release, which is too far away, and it is unrealistic to wait for the discount.

Now that it is clear that there is no hope of a discount for the three games in a short period of time, Ren Amamiya can only honestly look at the original price.

"Under the Legend", the price is 1620 yen.

"Little Nightmare", the pre-sale price is 3456 yen.

"Hollow Knight", priced at 1480 yen.

Um? Is "Little Nightmare" so expensive?

When Yu Gonglian looked at the price, she was stunned for a moment, 3456 is not bad.

Is it a little bit to sell 10 for a horror decryption independent game less than 3500G in size...

Then Amamiya Ren saw the publisher of "Little Nightmare".

Oh, Bandai Namco!That's fine.

Japanese factory games, Japanese factory games.

But that being said, in fact, this price is still within the tolerance range of Umiya Ren.

The inflated prices in Japan are determined by the national conditions. To put it simply, although the prices in Japan are high, people have a lot of money in their pockets!Only in terms of purchasing power, the corresponding value does not match the purchasing power of foreign exchange, so the comprehensive comparison with other countries appears distorted.

As a guy living in Japan, Amamiya Ren has already adapted to the purchasing power of the yen.

Of course, if there are cheap and high-quality foreign games to play, why would he play Japanese games?There are very few parts that allow people to buy at full price for the first time to play.

I checked the prices of the three games, and then Ren Amamiya went to browse his twitter again. He hasn't said anything about Yanshang yet. Now Twitter is quite chaotic, but Ren Amamiya's counterattack has already begun , jointly completed by Ren Amamiya and Shiro.There is no need to pay attention to these voices now, and they will naturally disappear after a while.

He just wanted to make up a live broadcast preview and send it out, but after thinking about it...forget it, he won't post it now. On the one hand, he hasn't really decided which game to broadcast at that time, so if he tweets now, he just It's just that [he intends to play the game] can be posted. If this kind of thing is posted, it will easily arouse unnecessary expectations from others, and then make it come to nothing.

It just so happened that he also needed a little time to draw a cover picture for himself.A diagram about the game theme to broadcast.

Although she didn't tweet it, Ren Yugong found a special private message.

It's news related to this hot event, but it's not the kind of guy who privately believed him to be eccentric.

This is a solicitation message sent to him by a person who claims to belong to いちから Co., Ltd.

The writing was very formal, and this person proposed to Ren Yugong in detail about some simple matters about their company's plan to launch a virtual anchor operation plan.

It is not uncommon for a virtual anchor to make achievements after debuting as an individual, and then be recruited by a company. Kizuna Ai joined the company from a small independent studio.Especially among many reincarnated virtual anchors, this kind of situation is not uncommon.

Lai Qixiao's ID, as the world's second-largest game player, has potential that anyone can imagine. From the fact that he has been popular but has gained fans, it can be seen that his fan base is far from being developed.So it is almost inevitable that a company will come to him.

Now that Lai Qixiao was on fire, running here to throw olive branches is a routine way to win people's hearts. In fact, Yu Gonglian has already received invitations from many clubs today.

All are based on the basic premise of being able to help him become 3D, and the public relations are popular this time, and the other treatment is different.

But now he saw that the private message sent to him by this club was different from these companies.

In the limited company plan disclosed by the person who contacted him, it was mentioned that they intend to use Live2D as the main focus of artists in the early stage, and build an industrialized virtual anchor project that develops from a low threshold.Coincidentally, whether Lai Qixiao uses Live2D or takes the route of acting as a character, in many ways it coincides with their plan.

And during the incident of Qi Xiao being fired, they also discovered some shortcomings in the original plan. After a period of observation, it was clear that their plan was highly consistent with Lai Qixiao's route, whether it was ability or route, Lai Qixiao They all fit their plan so well, so they took advantage of this time to find him.

Regardless of whether Qi Xiao can be recruited or not, it is always good to have a good relationship.

The name of this project is Nijisanji.

Do you plan to build a Vtuber production line based on Live2D, from low threshold to gradually making profits to 3D?

In this 3D rampant period, it can be described as a bold idea.After all, don't forget the cause of Yu Gonglian's inflammation.

But it is precisely because of the existence of Lai Qixiao that the people in this club can start this Nijisanji project so boldly.

The reason is very simple, because Lai Qixiao will definitely succeed.

As long as Umiya Lian is not a person trying to catch fame, and Lai Qixiao is the second player in the world, and also has acquaintance with the extremely mysterious world number one [], becoming a Vtuber with this image will definitely be successful.The difference between going it alone and relying on a company is just that the time required is different.

So since [the world's first Vtuber using Live2D for business] has succeeded, can't other Vtubers use Live2D with confidence?

As for how much Lai Qixiao's success has to do with Live2D, that's not important.The important thing is that he really opened up this path.

As long as Lai Qixiao didn't graduate from Yanshang this time, and even got positive benefits from this farce, then 【Using Live2D】will be hard to become a hotspot on Yanshang again. Keys come, can't make a climate.

So Nijisanji should be the person who is most afraid of Ren Amamiya being hit by this Yanshang incident.Although Yu Gonglian is not one of them, she is already related to their interests.

To be honest, Nijisanji's project Ren Amamiya is quite promising. Whether it is to promote anything to the public, low threshold is the most important part.If an industry has matured or even gone through a period of rapid development, it is understandable to stop for a while to maintain stability.

But when the industry just started, most of the arrogant people who started to be inflexible and resisted all changes were purely afraid of changes, and unilaterally hoped that others would not change.

Being able to take the initiative to make such a positive change is already worthy of appreciation.

With such a mood, Yu Gonglian began to write back to the person who contacted him.

Chapter 180 Three Escapes

"I have read your letter. First of all, I would like to thank you for your kindness. I appreciate it, but..."

Of course, it was impossible for Yu Gonglian to agree to this solicitation.

There are many benefits to becoming an entrepreneur, but the most important thing is the loss of freedom.Plans, projects, linkages, and industrial and commercial affairs all have to be reported or discussed with the company from a reasonable point of view. Of course, it is relatively free when you meet someone who is easy to talk to. have to.

This does not mean that you must be ordered to be oppressed after becoming a corporate power, but that once you sign a contract and become a formal job, you will have some more obligations, you need to abide by some things, and everything needs to be considered more comprehensive.

Umiya Lian is usually very busy and doesn't have so much time to make work, so I won't mention it. His purpose has caused him to never be restrained.

Leaving aside, just talking about the Yanshang incident, if Umiya Ren is not a personal power but a business power, then he must speak out about it now, and must cooperate with the operator to start public relations, clarify, declare, and even apologize.

and then?He intends to scrap the computers and mobile phones of those people who engage in human flesh, so it's better to wait and see what happens for the time being, these things don't actually need to be done——Should I tell the staff this kind of thing?

Thinking about it in another direction, there are many plans in Ren Amamiya's mind that are made for the blank, such as the strategy video that is expected to be released in version 14 of ff4.0, that is the first step to bring the blank to the video.As an entrepreneur, can the company allow him to plan whatever projects he wants, collaborate with whomever he wants, and support whomever he wants when something goes wrong?

impossible.

Therefore, Lai Qixiao will only use his personal power and will not sign a contract with any company.

But even though he didn't plan to sign a contract, his words were so formal and polite, and he even revealed some of his company's plans, so he shouldn't just let it go, even if he refused, it was a basic etiquette to reply to the other party.

For Umiya Ren's refusal, the opposite party did not stalk her, but after expressing regret, she said that she took the liberty, and then asked about Umiya Ren's experience in live2d operations, and her views on the live2d market in the Vtuber industry.

This surprised Yu Gonglian, the other party did not put herself in the position of "peering", it was more like "asking for advice", with a relatively low posture.Not only that, but the person's words showed a very serious attitude, which has to be said to be very pleasing.

That being the case, Yu Gonglian is naturally not stingy about anything, opinions, experiences and the like are not a big deal, so it is not a bad thing to be a good friend.If the other company really intends to focus on Live2D, in a sense, it can be regarded as an alternative [similar relationship], maybe in the future he and the other party's Vtuber will have an intersection.

Chatted with the other party for a while, and the atmosphere was quite good when we were talking about the business, but the honorifics mixed between the lines made Amamiya Ren a little tired when chatting - it's fine to follow the etiquette in normal times, but on the Internet, on the premise of not infringing others Next, I still hope to be more relaxed.

After saying goodbye to each other with honorific words, Ren Amamiya closed Twitter.

Looking at the time, there are still a few minutes before 22 o'clock.

Surprisingly early.

Ren Amamiya, who usually sleeps between 0:2 and [-]:[-], thought so.

But if she could go to bed earlier, Yu Gonglian would go to bed as early as possible. She came back early today and did a lot of things. The time is not as rushed as usual.

And why is there so much time today?That's because he neither made models nor went to work.

Thinking about it this way, although he did a lot of things today, those things were added temporarily, and the work that was originally planned has not been reduced at all.

In a sense, this is also a kind of procrastination.

Ah...no money, no time, decadent...

Now Yu Gonglian is not sleepy, and there is still some time before she usually sleeps, so why not find something to do.

The model is not done, tired. I don't play FF14 either, it's easy to stay up all night playing that stuff.

It should be something easy and not time consuming.

By the way, isn't there an end-credits egg before his Neil Part2?
