Chapter 71 Reverse bounce and temporary avoidance
"Ruinhascometoourfamily." (Our family has fallen)
In the midst of a vicissitudes of life, a low-pitched voice, but containing infinite wisdom, an old man wearing a red aristocratic robe with white hair and beard was lit by a candle in front of the case in a dark and gloomy bedroom. Bright.
His eye sockets were sunken, and even though he was so close to the fire, his eyes were still shrouded in darkness.
He pressed his forehead with his left hand and held a quill in his right hand, writing continuously on the desk.
And along with the old man's handwriting, he also continued to tell about the family's past glory and his own experiences.
The ancient and deep mansion is so rich and solemn, standing proudly in the wilderness.
The old man spent his whole life here. In the drunken dream of luxury and decadence, he gradually got tired of this life.
Because of an accidental discovery, the old man turned to study an ancient door that appeared below the manor and seemed to have incredible power.
Dark workers, strong shovels.
The old man invested all his family's wealth into it.
Finally, underground, the old man not only found the door he had been longing for, but also found a terrifying shadow that humans could not understand or recognize...
The old man went crazy. He fled in a hurry but fell into a coma again.
Just remembering the family's last glory, he left this letter and passed it on to "you", a descendant of the family.
"I beg you, go home, claim your inheritance, and save our family from the darkest dungeon, the shadow that greedily devours us."
The old man's last hasty whisper was accompanied by the sound of a gunshot.
He committed suicide.
This concludes the second promotional film for Darkest Dungeon, "The Decline of the Family".
"Damn it! Who is the voice actor in this game? It's so touching, I got goosebumps when I heard it!"
"As early as the first promotional video, I noticed the dubbing of Dark Dungeon. The narration was so immersive, but everyone obviously paid more attention to the characters, monsters, and combat system.
Today, such a long CG animation was released, finally showing off the charm of dubbing. ”
"To be honest, the story background of Dark Dungeon is really original.
In the original work of the Cthulhu Mythos written by a man who loves craftsmanship, there is no shortage of stories in which this kind of clumsiness finally leads to the arrival of invisible things, and ultimately disaster is imminent.
So, the goal of our protagonist is to return to the manor, succeed the lord, and then lead the army to restore the family? ”
As a non-staff member of Chuxin Game Studio and a die-hard fan, Erxiao will certainly not miss the release of today’s second promotional video.
Seeing the praise in the live broadcast room, she felt proud.
"Brothers, don't worry, what I have released this time is not just a promotional video, but also a lot of setting collections."
As Er Xiao said this, he exited the Chuxin Game Studio official website and came to the "Settings" section of the main interface of the Dark Dungeon section.
The first thing that catches the eye is naturally the pattern that has appeared most often in the entire promotional video.
The incompletely closed pointed crown, equally separated by five spikes.
It also has its own name:
[The Iron Crown: The projection of human reason into the real world. ]
As soon as the official set of settings came out, it naturally proved that netizens' bold speculation about the things discovered in the first promotional video was correct some time ago, and it suddenly caused a burst of cheers.
However, obviously to avoid spoilers, the entire set currently only contains some of the most basic design concepts of the game.
There are still no settings related to in-game monsters, dungeon items, etc.
Erxiao pulled the pulley and shared these interesting settings with the water friends. Suddenly, her movements stopped.
Immediately, her expression changed drastically and she shouted:
"Damn it!" "In view of the smooth development progress, the launch date of "Darkest Dungeon" will be advanced to June 1, 2031."
Just such an ordinary sentence placed at the bottom of the entire Dark Dungeon section really filled the Erxiao live broadcast room with question marks.
"Good guy! Reverse ticket bounce, right? Mr. Luo knows how to bounce tickets!"
"I cried. I don’t know why. When I first learned that it would be released on July 1st, I wasn’t that anxious.
Now the time is obviously a month ahead of schedule, and I am already extremely anxious. ”
"Look, are you in a hurry?"
"Mr. Luo! I really want to play "Darkest Dungeon"!"
"What is Mr. Luo? How many times have I told you, I call you nicknames when playing games!"
"Yes! Butter King!"
As soon as this news came out, there was still one month left before the official limit of "Darkest Dungeon"!
Not to mention how excited the player community was, looking like they were about to pop the champagne.
As soon as the news came out that "Darkest Dungeon" had been delayed one month in advance, many domestic game companies that were originally scheduled to be launched around June 1st were frightened by such news.
No wonder.
For now, the release of works by major domestic game manufacturers will basically follow this process.
First of all, choose an auspicious day and avoid those 3A masterpieces from international manufacturers.
Then we started to build momentum before the release, contacted the live broadcast platform in advance, and then spent money to invite several big anchors to jointly hold an event.
Netizens all have a herd mentality.
When faced with domestic games, they may be hesitant to place an order immediately, but when they see other people playing them being quite interesting, they will usually give them a try.
Of course, this does not include scattered independent game studios.
There wasn’t much popularity in the first place, so I just released the game as soon as it was finished.
Those who have money will do some publicity, and those who have no money will just put it away.
Love so much.
This was almost the same situation when mirror was launched at that time.
But now...
Indeed, "Darkest Dungeon" is definitely not a 3A masterpiece, nor is it a foreign work.
I can’t stand my initial enthusiasm! Ori, who can't stand this coercion, won the TGA Game of the Year award a while ago!
Do you really want to conflict with your original intention? What a joke!
Cooperation with big anchors is based on the fact that there were no particularly popular games released at that time. If there is such a game, others will make it popular, and you will make it a moneymaker. That is just digging your own roots.
Who would do such a stupid thing?
Forced into desperation, this major game company also quickly announced the news that the game's ticket delay would be delayed by half a month.
It was also on the hot search list within the same day.
#《Dark Dungeon》reverse ticket bounce! #
# Avoid the Edge for the Time, Feiyu Studio’s “Tianmo Dazzling” announced that the ticket has been postponed to June 15th! #
"Fuck! I was so scared that I skipped my ticket, but it's okay. I laughed to death."
"After all, it is the original intention, which is understandable, hahaha!"
While players were ridiculing and waiting in agony, "Darkest Dungeon" was officially released on Children's Day, June 1st!
