I just want players to save money, but I was made the richest man - Chapter 203
c197 A new way to get into the TOP3!
Winter has arrived, and January has kicked off a new year.
The development of “Elden’s Ring” is also coming to an end.
In the process of whether to release CG, there was a wave of heated discussions within Ready Player One.
In the end, Ke Jin beat the crowd and said that he would not send out warm-up CGs.
Different from the previous life.
In the past, no matter how big the game manufacturer was, the games it released were not tested by players.
No one can say before the game is released that it will be a hit.
Therefore, a large number of publicity warm-ups will be carried out, even one announcement, two announcements, and three announcements.
To ensure that someone will buy it when it is officially released.
But in this life, all the games I have played have been approved by countless picky players on the planet.
What’s more, those players in Blue Star are eager to play good games but have never been exposed to such games.
For this reason, not having to announce it is the greatest respect for the players.
Keep unreleased games in a Christmas gift box.
Put all the expectations and surprises into the gift box and leave it to the players to open.
If the player knows nothing about everything in the game, even the golden tree is not revealed to the outside world.
So the shock you felt when you saw the golden tree for the first time was completely different from the feeling you had after seeing it once during the warm-up announcement.
What is different from the low profile of the number one player.
Weiwangdi has begun to promote its own “Shadowland” with great fanfare.
First, it is to let Omi players know that such a masterpiece is about to be launched.
Secondly, it seems to be a warning to other colleagues.
I am about to release a masterpiece. If any of you want to release a work at the same time, especially a certain lower… No, no, the first manufacturer.
It’s best to weigh yourself carefully.
Don’t be frightened by my terrifying ability to create public opinion when the time comes. I will block all your light!
Soon, Weiwangdi spared no expense in advertising and even bribed many media to build momentum.
In the first week of its release, “Shadowland” had a pretty good performance.
As a traditional 3DARPG game, “Shadowland” sold an astonishing one million units in its first week without any major innovations.
This is even when the price of the basic version has risen to 200 knives per set.
It has brought a considerable revenue of 200 million US dollars to Weiwangdi.
Even excluding various expenditures, according to estimates by industry insiders.
Weiwangdi can still make nearly 100 million US dollars in revenue in the first week.
After all, DFgame, as the world’s largest gaming platform, does not need to share its own games with itself.
After having this proud record.
Connor, the current president of Weiwangdi, is completely heartbroken.
You know, at the end of last year.
The FPS game “Life and Death” produced by Blizzard won the best TGA of the year. It only sold 1.8 million copies in the first week, reaching the highest peak last year, but it is not the highest in history.
And the 1 million sales of its own “Shadowland” in the first week can be regarded as being outstanding among the others in the new year.
“Ready Player One has not made any announcements about new games yet.” The secretary added after summarizing the company’s financial report as usual.
Connor curled his lips in disdain: “That’s why I’m scared. It’s not unusual for them to postpone the release until the second half of the year. If I were them, I would just release it next year.”
“After all, how is it possible for a company of this size to sell 800,000 copies in a week?”
Connor is not arrogant out of thin air.
He actually checked the historical record of the number one player.
As of now, all Ready Player One games have been bought out in the past three and a half years.
The best-selling one is SW’s escort masterpiece “Mario: Odyssey”, with sales reaching 2 million units in the first month.
But you know, this is the first month’s sales.
First week?
The record of “Odyssey” is less than 500,000.
In other words, when your top player has so many local supporters, that’s all.
What’s more, Omi comes here from a place he is unfamiliar with.
Huh, nothing to be afraid of!
I have even begun to study how to squeeze out the remaining value of Wonderland after acquiring it, and then turn it into a channel for DFgame.
Just when Connor was studying how to deal with Nplay.
Ke Jin is also studying.
He is studying what kind of krypton avoidance idea should be implanted in “Elden’s Ring”.
Originally, Kejin had discussed it with Brother Tongzi.
This situation is special, could you please accommodate me?
For example, this time, don’t issue any krypton avoidance missions. Instead, just give a reward mission similar to the previous one in “Arknights”. There is no limit on the low consumption of krypton gold, and it will purely allow the number one player to make a lot of money!
The child has been feeling aggrieved for so long, this is called lovesickness!
However, Brother Tongzi seems to have tested the overall evaluation of “Elden’s Circle” on Earth.
Then we compared the quality of “Shadowland”, which is currently the most likely competitor.
I don’t know how cold the words were coming out of my mouth.
“cannot.”
“Ah Minos!” Ke Jin couldn’t help but burst into the quintessence of Chinese culture.
You BYD Weiwangdi, can you give dad some encouragement?
Although Kejin has never experienced “Shadowland”
But judging from Brother Tongzi’s reaction.
This BYD is so rubbish that Brother Tongzi is unwilling to grant himself special privileges.
How could this happen! Isn’t Wei Wangdi a piece of pure iron waste?
One million dollars in the first week.
In my opinion, what would “Shadowland” have been able to achieve without the strong capital support of the announcement?
But it was only after a large amount of money was invested that there was an illusion of prosperity that was sold out.
What phenomenon does this illustrate?
Not without capital.
However, after scolding, Kejin had to worry about how to set up a krypton-avoiding play next.
And this time, the conditions are even harsher than before.
first.
“Elden” is a work prepared by the number one player to destroy the Omi game market, so the pricing will naturally no longer be as random as before.
Ke Jin wanted to come up with a price of ‘for only eight and eight dollars, Lani will be taken home by his wife’ or ‘for only nine and nine dollars, Melina will leave with you right away’.
But this price really can’t bring back the blood.
The 20 billion purchase of Nplay this time has squeezed the number one player so much that it can no longer do it.
In urgent need of repairing the element bottle.
So.
It has to make some money back, stay within the low consumption line, and be widely praised by players around the world.
Three points and one line leave too little room for the engraver to operate.
But as a man, what Master Engraver is best at is digging for loopholes and looking for gaps! Then seek to stretch in the cracks.
Don’t look at it, the trail is still tight and secluded at the moment.
But if the master explores a few more times, he may be able to open up a smooth road to come and go freely.
Oh, of course, this is just talking about Master Ke’s study of the Krypton-forcing style.
After some brainstorming, Ke Jin opened his eyes and burst out with a glimmer of determination to win!
“I have it!”
The idea is this.
You see, now our number one player is also heading to the global battlefield.
Since there is no such thing as a wall abroad, games released on the Nplay platform can theoretically be easily purchased by players all over the world.
So, when it comes to global purchases, you have to show an ID card shared by players around the world – Turks.
Yes, the steam in the previous life gave Ke Jin a lot of inspiration.
If I choose some poorer countries, the price of my “Elden” in this country will be very cheap, perhaps ten times cheaper than the original price in the Omi region…
Moreover, this news was accidentally leaked by Ready Player One officials…
How should players respond?
In the past, all kinds of ideas for forcing krypton were exclusive, and players had no choice.
It doesn’t matter whether you pay money to increase the difficulty of the game or whether ads block the money-paying page.
Or it could be krypton gold to explode the server.
If you think about these ideas carefully, you will find them.
Players can only be between krypton and not krypton.
You can’t stop a krypton guy who wants to make money, and if you stop a guy who doesn’t want to make money, it will be in vain if you stop him.
This time, I will give players a choice!
I sell the same games at different prices.
You can go to Omega to buy the more expensive version, or you can go to Turkey and Argentina to buy the very cheap version.
Anyway, whether you spend more money or less money, the content you experience is the same.
The krypton gold sow is just stupid, but not stupid.
If you can recharge 648 at the price of 68 through official channels, who would recharge 648?
Moreover, the reason for setting the price in this way is very sufficient, and Tongzi brother cannot find any suspicion of botching it.
After all, in many poor countries, players in those countries are human beings, but they don’t have that much money to buy well-made games.
I put myself in their shoes and want them to have the same fun as other players at the lowest price. Is there any problem?
What? You said that the actual population of Argentina is not 1.3 billion?
Then how do I know? You have to ask the Argentinian Census Bureau for this. Look at what I am doing. I am not the director.
Hey, such a move is very nice!
Although your Tongzi brother is a dimensionality reduction blow compared to Tomoko, but you have a genius brain like my master, it can only be said that you still need to practice.
Ke Jin feels that this idea will subvert the previous traditional playing methods, and even be ranked among the top three genius ideas of Master Ke!
This one kissed me hard!
With everything in place, Ke Jin began to wait patiently for “Elden” to be released simultaneously globally after final debugging!

CzCu is one of the popular game anchors on the twitch platform.
The characteristics of his live broadcast are that he is relatively abstract and has no regard for his personal image. He often acts ugly and stupid, and his personality is also erratic. One moment he is smiling and the next moment he smashes the table in anger. One moment he is happy and the next moment he is crying.
Coupled with appropriate game scenes, the effects of his live broadcasts often explode.
In addition, CzCu can also enjoy large-scale photos or videos with his friends, and is not afraid of foreign political correctness factors and directly comments on some things he thinks are not good-looking.
As a result, he has accumulated a lot of popularity through many years of live broadcasts, with fans all over the world. Many Chinese players often climb over the wall to watch his live broadcasts.
Czcu started broadcasting daily today. First, I tried to play the 3D masterpiece “Shadowland”, which has been heavily advertised recently.
The latest ARPG produced by Weiwangdi.
Before the game was released, various game media rushed to praise the game, with various evaluations of 9 or above.
After playing for two hours, Czcu frowned tightly and faced the camera with his hands full of confusion.
“Exm? How dare you sell this game for $200?”
“As an action role-playing game, the action system is quite satisfactory, and the impact is okay, but as you know, it’s just okay, and there isn’t much that stands out.”
“Perhaps the only thing worthy of praise is its picture quality that keeps pace with the times. The character modeling is very good.”
“But here comes the question again. Am I here to play games or to see modeling? If I just purely appreciate character modeling, then why don’t I just get the damn 3D butter?”
“If this game had appeared five years ago, I would have given it a score of 7 points, but not now. Now I can only give it a score of 5 points.”
Overall, “Shadowland” is not a particularly bad game.
But it is definitely not as magical as the media boasted when it was released.
Lackluster content, too much old wine in a new bottle.
Weiwangdi has been very steady on the road of not making mistakes.
After Czcu’s evaluation ended, barrages also began to express their opinions.
“Bro, you really dare to say that you are not afraid that Wei Wangdi will send people to your house overnight and shoot more than a dozen times, and then the cause of death in the autopsy report is suicide.”
“Is there anything I dare not say? I have the same idea as Czcu. This game is like buying the media. I was deceived. I spent 200 dollars and ended up buying this. I was not allowed to refund. Fuck you vivendi!”
“Go for this year’s Hugo Awards. All the annual works of Electronic Arts and Blizzard were released before the year. During the vacuum at the beginning of the year, “Shadowland” only requires stability, plus operation, it will have a big impact Chances of winning a Hugo Award.”
“I’m really fed up with the current game market where you can win awards without looking at the quality of the work, just running it! As a player, I want to find a game that I can play, but I have to dig for gold in shit every year. Can you come to me? Macho man, help me!”
“Speaking of which, Ready Player One seems to be releasing a new game today, on the Nplay platform. This company had some unpleasantness with Weiwangdi three months ago, and now the games are almost online one after another. Maybe it’s aimed at It’s because of Wei Wangdi’s vigor.”
After scanning the barrage, Czcu noticed the number one player mentioned by water friends.
He had heard of this company as early as two years ago.
It is said to be a rising star company in East Asia, and the games it produces are quite popular among East Asian players.
However, this company has never advertised in Omi, and the game has not even been launched on Omi.
Therefore, Czcu has never experienced a game owned by Ready Player One.
I thought this company would be like many other Asian game companies, but one day I suddenly heard the name.
Then he disappeared from everyone, and there was no news from him in the years to come.
But Ready Player One seems to be different.
Around the end of October last year, the company suddenly became active again.
And there were some conflicts with behemoths like Weiwangdi.
But even more shocking.
Ready Player One seems to have won…
Of course, this kind of winning is more of a spiritual victory.
It does not have much substantial impact on Weiwangdi itself.
Just when everyone thought that things might turn around like this.
At the beginning of this year, the number one player began to work hard to seize the power of the Nplay platform.
He even convinced the CEO of Wonderland and other senior executives to transfer all their shares to him, making him the largest shareholder of Nplay.
He grabbed the meat from Wei Wangdi’s hand and finally got the biggest piece!
After this news came out, all major manufacturers in the Omega industry turned their attention to it.
Not long after that, Ready Player One made another high-profile announcement.
Its new game “Elden’s Ring” will soon be launched on Nplay.
Look next door, Weiwangdi also released a new round of promotional videos for “Shadowland” at almost the same time.
Inevitably, these two works will be compared together by the busybody.
Czcu only knows that “Elden” may be launched in the near future, but because Ready Player One has not given much high-level publicity to this work.
As for the fact that this game had just been released today, he didn’t even know it. He only opened Nplay after being prompted by friends.
Sure enough, I saw a banner recommendation about “Elden’s Circle” on the home page.
This chapter will be released regularly, when you see this chapter.
I’ve fallen asleep so fast.
There is a new chapter before, next, it is important to wait two minutes.
————Very good chapter reviews, which make readers invest their monthly votes. Love comes from the starting point.
