Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall?

At noon the next day!

In the office, Gu Sheng was flipping through the materials of the popular somatosensory pod shooting games in recent years.

While watching, I heard someone knock on the office door.

tuk tuk -

Please come in.

Gu Sheng put down the documents and looked up.

As the door opened, Lu Bian and Da Jiang appeared at the door with mysterious expressions on their faces.

what?

Gu Sheng frowned suspiciously.

You know, these two guys usually come to him but never knock on the door.

What's the matter today, the sun came out from the west?

Lu Bian walked into the office and showed a professional smile to Gu Sheng, like a waiter:

Good morning, Dear Director Gu, I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?

...I want to hear what your attending doctor has to say first. Gu Sheng said speechlessly.

Tsk old Gu, why are you so boring! Lu Bian complained.

Okay, okay, Gu Sheng raised his hands in surrender, and played tricks with the two brothers: Then I'll hear the bad news first, it's hard work.

Lu Bian immediately resumed his professional status and nodded:

OK.

As he spoke, he handed over a document:

The bad news is that our first-day sales results came out, 2085 copies, which did not break the first-day sales record for a game of the same size.

Well, it's okay, as expected.

Regarding this, Gu Sheng was not too surprised or upset.

After all, the game type is here, and it is the unpopular among the unpopular.

Even though many anchors experienced it for themselves yesterday, players' stereotypes about horror games cannot be reversed in a day or two.

Gu Sheng was quite satisfied with even breaking through 2,000 copies on the first day.

After all, this result may be a little mediocre compared to their previous results, but it is already considered to be in the middle and upper reaches of the entire market.

It will take time for the fear of ghosts to explode.

The bad news isn't too bad. Gu Sheng closed the sales report and continued to ask, What about the good news?

Good news, hehehe, good news is so damn good——

Lu Bian took out his mobile phone from behind and handed it to Gu Sheng:

Our weekly sales may be exploding!!!

ha? !

Seeing the excited look on Lu Bian's face, Gu Sheng didn't understand why.

Taking the phone and looking at it carefully, he couldn't help but take a deep breath——

Black Box Evaluation: Phobia a ghost card that redefines horror games (9.8/10)

This is... a media evaluation?!

Gu Sheng looked at the content on the phone and was quite surprised.

Media evaluation is a form of media communication in which the professional evaluation team of mainstream game websites or forums systematically analyzes and scores the most popular masterpieces.

To some extent, media evaluation is also an important way for game announcements.

Even, its role is more prominent than general game news.

Because players have always been quite convinced of this kind of professional evaluation, especially several mainstream evaluation media in China, which can almost be said to be the vane of the game.

but!

According to Gu Sheng's understanding, in this world, the media evaluation and scoring of somatosensory cabin games is generally only for those works with high cost.

Mainstream professional evaluation teams like black box games seldom pay attention to games with low cost and small volume.

We are too lucky...

Gu Sheng muttered, obviously a little surprised by this big pie that fell from the sky:

I picked up a game evaluation opportunity for nothing?

However!

Regarding Gu Sheng's 'lucky' statement, Lu Bian shook his head:

Old Gu, if I only picked up such a test, I wouldn't be so happy.

talking!

Lu Bian waved his hand!

Behind him, Da Jiang stepped forward and put the prepared materials in front of Gu Sheng!

Brother Cheng, we really exploded this time,

Eighty percent of the mainstream game evaluation groups in China have evaluated and scored our games, and all of them are 9.5 upwards,

Even the evaluation self-media with more than one million followers on each platform is full of praise for our game!

watt? !

Hearing this, Gu Sheng was startled.

Open the file, and you can see that there are no less than 20 game media evaluation scores listed above!

SNG evaluation, 9.7 points: A creepy new form of horror masterpiece, Phobia uses its ingenious psychological fear therapy to cure my boredom of horror games for so many years!

Player Campfire, 9.6 points: The era of Jumpscare is over! The psychological fear flow created by phobia is epoch-making! Of course, it would be nice if their cost investment was higher...

Daily Travel News, 9.8 points: Soul fear! If you ask me where the creative limit of Golden Wind is, then I will tell you that it is like the fear in phobia, it only exists in your thinking, only you can't think of it, you can't do it without them arrive.

Somatosensory world, 9.7 points: Terror is coming! A dimensionality reduction blow from a supernova! A small blue film that really cures the impotence of horror games! Make sure you have no history of heart disease before playing!

China Game Forum, 9.7 points!

Lao Sang said the game, 9.5 points!

Suction game, 9.6 points...

From game media to game forums, to video sites and online self-media.

Without exception, they all gave this game a very high evaluation!

It seems that the only minus point of this game is that the investment is slightly lower, which leads to the level of performance of the game hardware not being perfect.

Looking at it, Gu Sheng couldn't help opening his mouth wide.

Is this... something wrong?!

It stands to reason that a somatosensory cabin game of their size is not worthy of being evaluated and scored by the mainstream media.

Even if you take a step back, some media have seen the quality of their game and think that the gameplay of psychological horror is indeed groundbreaking.

It should also be evaluated by a certain mainstream media, which aroused widespread repercussions in the market, and after a period of fermentation.

Then, other media launched evaluations one after another.

Instead of being like now, a vast number of media swarmed up, as if it had been discussed, at the same time, overwhelmingly launched evaluations and announcements on this game!

Someone give us an announcement?!

Gu Sheng immediately realized that this was definitely not as simple as an ordinary luck.

Many game media are in agreement, there must be someone behind the scenes to help them out!

That's right!

Lu Bian snapped his fingers, then raised his eyebrows and asked:

Then do you know who operated this?

Gu Sheng's first reaction was of course Little Nezha.

After all, their company is so big.

If he, the game director, didn't make a publicity announcement, it must be the little Nezha, the president, who made the publicity.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head again.

It shouldn't be.

Little Nezha has always told him thousands of times, resolutely not to engage in publicity, and told him to devote all his costs to game development, with the attitude of an iron-headed boy who is not afraid of deep alleys with the smell of wine.

What's more, with little Nezha's understanding of the game industry, she can't think of evaluating this form of announcement.

Who could it be?

For a moment, Gu Sheng was a little out of control, and shook his head: It can't be Little Nezha, right?

Hearing this, Lu Bian lifted his trousers and sat on the sofa, pretending to be mysterious:

Yes and no,

No, too,

I can only say that the water in this matter is very deep, and little Nezha is not as stupid and clear as we imagined,

How should I put it, you know what you know, that's all I can say.

Gu Sheng: ...

If you continue to be a fucking riddler, get the hell out of Binjiang City.

Don't stop kidding, bro,

Seeing that Gu Sheng was about to stand up and give him justice, Lu Bian quickly smiled and waved his hands:

Sit, sit, can't I just say it...

talking!

Lu Bian then analyzed what he saw, heard and analyzed, and confessed everything.

After listening to Lu Bian's narration!

Gu Cheng hugged his shoulders, frowned and thought:

...In other words, the 80,000 extra login fee that Little Nezha gave us is actually implying that Yiyou gave us the green light to provide policy support for in-depth cooperation?

I also listened to Chu Dami's analysis,

Lu Bian shrugged and said:

Let's not talk about this matter, little Nezha didn't even tell Chu Dami, and at that time she was so distressed that she thought that little Nezha was a waste of money on purpose.

Um--

Hearing this, Gu Sheng nodded.

Niubi.

Little Nezha was able to come up with this set of business operations, but his mind was flexible enough.

It not only avoids the embarrassment that they do not have a professional publicity team, but also makes full use of Yiyou's favor and favor for them.

Make full use of strengths and circumvent weaknesses, leverage strengths, and be well versed in the unspoken rules of business.

Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog daughter.

Gu Sheng sighed in his heart.

After all, little Nezha is also a high-achieving student in a key university. He comes from a merchant family. He may not understand games, but he certainly does not understand business.

Other than that? Does Yiyou have any other announcements?

Gu Sheng asked.

Of course,

Lu Bian nodded:

In order to match the sales of our game, Yiyou announced this morning that it will launch the theme of a phobia somatosensory cabin, and all players who buy the game will get it,

In addition, they also organized a game lottery on Weibo,

As long as players participate in Weibo, bring the hashtag #phobia#, and share game clips, screenshots, jokes, etc.,

There is a chance to draw a brand new Yiyou x1.

Good guy.

Hearing this, Gu Sheng was secretly surprised.

For Yan Sheng to be able to do this, it can basically be said that he was frantically probing on the edge of the bottom line.

After all, in theory, Golden Wind has not yet reached the standard for in-depth cooperation between art and travel.

Even if Yan Sheng gives them the green light again, it is impossible to implement the announcement in accordance with the standard of in-depth cooperation.

It is to help find evaluations, to introduce themes, and to draw prizes to create momentum for them.

Art tour is already very interesting.

Even, the total cost of these publicity and distribution has already exceeded 80,000 yuan.

Yan Sheng is a good comrade. Gu Sheng nodded.

Indeed, Lu Bian also said sincerely, This is Yiyou's high reputation and high status. If we went out to find the media to do evaluations, let alone so many, it would be difficult to win one for 80,000 yuan.

So let's say...

Finally, Gu Sheng concluded:

Don't look at the little Nezha who is usually heartless,

At the critical moment, he really is a fucking talent!!!

...

Not surprisingly, the fear of ghosts became popular.

Just like a person's success requires strength and luck.

The success of a game also requires two elements-quality and publicity.

There is no doubt that the quality of phobia can surpass other horror games in this world.

Coupled with the strong support of good comrade Yan Sheng, it can be compared to licking a dog.

Phobia has become a hotly discussed game among players in just half a day!

When the hands of the clock point to eight o'clock in the evening again!

Together with the darkness of night, there is also the baptism of terror of ghosts, and the tragic screams of countless anchors!

...WDNMD Dongguaqiang, this is the picture you picked?!

In the early morning and midnight, amidst the gusts of gloomy wind, four people stood in front of an old house, looking at the paper figurines and paper horses lined up on both sides in front of the scarlet gate.

With the sound of a woman whimpering, the two rows of wreaths close to the wall rustled, and the big Chinese character Dian fluttered in the wind.

Liu Peijia, Dong Gua, Liu Di, and Teacher Ma poked at the gate of the gloomy old house, unable to move even a single step.

Originally, Liu Peijia just saw that this game was highly rated and very popular, so he wanted to experience it with the mentality of giving it a try.

But unexpectedly, Dong Gua committed hyperthyroidism on the spot after seeing the barrage saying that their anchors in the FPS area were timid and lustful.

He had to choose an expert-level difficulty map, saying that he wanted to justify himself.

Ever since.

Here they are.

old house.

An additional map added by Gu Sheng, full of Chinese horror elements.

As soon as Liu Peijia came in, he regretted it. He really shouldn't have listened to Dong Gua and randomly selected eight pictures.

The game itself is hellish enough.

He was terrified when he watched Lao Piao's live video just now.

As a result, Donggua chose a Chinese-style horror map.

Don't say anything else.

Just the pair of paper man and paper horse poking at the gate was enough to scare him!

I don't know if it was because of the night, or because he was nervous.

He always felt that the two boy and girl paper figurines were staring at him.

Under the fear, Liu Peijia couldn't get angry:

The picture you chose! Winter melon! Don't be afraid to pinch the horse later!

I...cough!

Winter Melon was quite crazy at first, thinking that horror games are just like that, the worst thing is to be taken aback.

But as soon as he came in, he saw that he had no weapon in his hand, and saw the eerie gate of the mansion, and he panicked instantly.

But the so-called road I chose had to be walked on my knees, so I cleared my throat and pretended to be calm:

That's it! What are you afraid of! They say we are all cowardly and lustful! Can you bear this? Brother Qie, are you afraid? Can you be afraid?

Upon hearing this, Liu Peijia naturally couldn't admit defeat:

I'm afraid of Hang Nima? Could I be afraid? Just kidding! Are you afraid, Mr. Di?!

Fuck! I'm afraid? I haven't seen anything!

Liu Di didn't lose face either:

I can't be afraid at all! Are you afraid, old horse!

The old horse is actually a little scared.

But seeing everyone saying that, I could only grin my lips: If I say I'm not afraid, it seems like a lot of money, then... I'm not afraid either.

The voice has not yet fallen!

See the three anchors in the FPS area step back together!

Teacher Ma said he is not afraid!

Woc is awesome, Mr. Ma!

It has to be an old horse, then you go first, old horse!

Teacher Ma, let's go first, we'll cut it off for you...

The outrageous scene directly made the barrage unstoppable——

'What kind of trick is this? ! '

'I put my brother in my pocket, and brother kick me into the ditch? '

'Pass it on, the big FPS anchors collectively suppress the gold medal lecturers in the league area'

‘What a jerk, you three are! '

'Is this what people do? '

'Old horse: I need a more offensive vocabulary than the nascent'

‘Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...’

The water friends laughed, and the old horse was also dumbfounded!

Yo, I'm a routine, right? The little boss is really stupid...

However, although he was surprised by the shamelessness of the three of Liu Peijia, the always generous Teacher Ma took the lead after all.

A group of people squeezed each other, slowly moved up the bluestone steps, and bravely pushed open the vermilion lacquer gate of the ancient house.

This is a three-entry house.

As soon as they crossed the threshold, the scene in front of them made the four of them unbearably terrified!

However, on the hanging flower door that first entered the small courtyard, there were actually two red lanterns shining with a faint halo.

On the lantern, the word 囍 is vaguely visible.

I rely on-

Seeing this scene, Liu Peijia was in a bad mood:

This is... a dark marriage?!
