Chapter 130 Official certification is “hugely controversial”
"Not suppressed? Why?"
Luo Bai's head was full of questions, he really didn't want to understand.
Even though not even a dime of public relations expenses were paid, this topic inexplicably came up again.
In the comment area, those words that are very familiar to people, specifically used to stir up the emotions of netizens, can be recognized at a glance as acquaintances.
These people's souls are all split. When they want to use it, they just split it in half.
The half on the left can boast that this game is rare in the sky and hard to find on the ground, and the half on the right can say that this game relies on defense, the shame of the game.
"Mr. Luo has already figured it out. It is the public relations company that has been working well with us before. He guessed that we might promote our first 3D game as vigorously as usual, so we made preparations in advance.
Later, we discovered that there had been no movement, but the initial cost had already been spent. Unable to accept the sunk cost, I wanted to get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket..."
Xiao Weirui's words were also filled with a lot of helplessness.
After discussing the possible problems of "Wanda and the Colossus" with Luo Bai a long time ago, she also agreed with Luo Bai's idea of treating it coldly.
But there are too many honors on my head, and many things are actually beyond my control.
The name "Light of Domestic Games" seems to be very comfortable to wear, but it is very heavy. The heavier the object, the greater the inertia.
"Mr. Luo, you can't just ignore this kind of thing, otherwise when the players find out that Wanda is not in line with their expectations, it is very likely that the situation in Ori will repeat itself.
There are not a few people in the industry who want to see original jokes. At that time, they also had signs of taking action on Dark Dungeon, but the game was indeed excellent, so they gave up after giving it a simple try.
The controversy brought about by Wanda must be even greater. ”
Xiao Weirui reminded.
"I know."
Luo Bai rubbed his temples.
Originally, because of this period of time, Wanda has been overcoming the development difficulties of the original engine 1.0. Wanda, who wanted to cool down the project and did not publicize it at all, was inexplicably framed.
There is no doubt that at this time, if he does not want to repeat what happened to Ori at that time, Luo will have to take action on his own.
Only Luo Bai, who is famous in the domestic gaming circle, can withstand this situation now.
Xiao Weirui is quite effective at doing things.
Just in the afternoon of that day, professional interviewers from Xiaopo Station brought the shooting team to the headquarters of Chuxin Game Studio.
The next day, the video editing work was completed, and in the evening, a brand new video was officially released on the official account of Chuxin Game Work.
"Lobai: Shadow of the Colossus may not be the game you think"
As a loyal fan of Chuxin games, the first thing you cannot miss is definitely the addictive games released by Chuxin.
Another thing that cannot be missed is naturally the soul of Chuxin, Mr. Luo Bailuo.
People outside the gaming circle are obviously more interested in the latter than the former. After all, humans are such powerful creatures.
Tang Yunpeng, who works in the office to support his retirement, saw a lot of bullets flashing across the screen the moment he opened this video.
"For your viewing experience, please block words such as 'selling miserable' and 'pretending'."
"It doesn't matter, no matter what kind of work you come up with, I will definitely support it."
"You've made everyone wait for so long, and finally come out with a declaration like this? We can give you time to delay the ticket, and you can take it back and change it!"
Obviously, this video is actually quite controversial.
He has also watched the first promotional video. Although he is happy that Mr. Luo has entered the 3D field, he can't help but also have some doubts in his heart.
The picture quality of the PV cannot explain anything. In today's era of rapidly developing technology, as long as you are willing to spend money, the picture cannot be improved.
What really affects the sales of a AAA game is related to the graphics, but the relationship is not very big.
It mainly depends on gameplay, plot and other related elements.
The development time for Shadow of the Colossus was really short.
The video is loaded and officially begins:
The familiar Mr. Luo is still wearing the plaid shirt he wore during the last interview.
"Le, why is Mr. Luo still wearing the same clothes as last time? Is he so short of money in the first place?"
"Mr. Luo's aesthetic is really simple and unpretentious, I like it."
"It's too much for my XP. I want a plaid shirt, I want a plaid shirt!"
"Gan! You have so many monsters in your XP!"
The host's voice-over sounded at the right time:
"Just the day before yesterday, Chuxin released the first PV of a new work entering the field of 3D games, and announced that the game will be officially released on April 15th, one and a half months later, which also set off a craze on the Internet. .
Domestic players are obviously full of expectations for this game, but under this premise, we received an interview invitation from Chuxin.
This time I was invited to Chuxin Game Headquarters for a brief interview with Mr. Luo. Does Mr. Luo have anything to say to the players? ”
Tang Yunpeng was also a little strange.
Judging from Wanda's popularity in the past two days, this interview is undoubtedly a bit unnecessary.
According to the normal publicity process, such an interview and the second PV of the actual machine demonstration complement each other, which is a normal publicity work.
But what Luo Bai said next shocked everyone who watched the video, including Tang Yunpeng.
Luo Bai looked at the camera in front of him with a helpless expression:
"Just two days after the first PV was released, such an interview was held urgently. In fact, everyone may have guessed, what kind of interview would be so urgent?
It's nothing more than emergency public relations. ”
As soon as the word "emergency public relations" came out, question marks filled the screen, which can be regarded as a true reflection of the hearts of all viewers.
How come the game hasn't been released yet, and you haven't been ruined yet, so we need to send out emergency public relations.
But this is a video after all, not a live broadcast. Luo Bai continued talking to himself:
"I have seen players' expectations for "Shadow of the Colossus". They all hope that this game can break some monopoly or something like that. But in fact, my own positioning of Wanda is actually my original game work. A hands-on work that enters the 3D field.
Of course, practicing your work doesn’t mean you have to mess around. I still have confidence in Wanda’s quality. At least this won’t be a bad work. ”
"Is this the mainstream view among everyone? Mr. Luo published a special interview just for this. I feel it is unnecessary."
"It's true, even if it's a little mediocre, we can still accept it, just as giving back to Mr. Luo's previous games that far exceeded the selling price."
"But it's worth it to meet Mr. Luo, hehe, hehe."
Tang Yunpeng pinched his chin and realized that things would not be that simple. Mr. Luo himself is not the kind of person who is willing to be mediocre. If he was just mediocre, there would be no need to post such a special interview video.
Sure enough, the subsequent development did not distract Tang Yunpeng.
"Actually, it feels inappropriate to say that it is a work of practice. I added a little selfishness to Wanda and the Colossus."
Luo Bai smiled awkwardly,
“In the end, due to my deliberate laissez-faire, it became the kind of game that is not suitable for most players.
This is undoubtedly inconsistent with my creative philosophy.
I really wanted to change it, but after I actually started using it, I discovered that the changed Wanda and Shadow of the Colossus was no longer the Wanda and Shadow of the Colossus I wanted.
So at the very beginning, when Shadow of the Colossus released the first PV, I didn’t even think about doing any kind of publicity, but I still underestimated the significance of original intention in everyone’s minds.
What should I say?
This game can be played by everyone. I personally don’t recommend it if you start playing it.
As for the money you owe me for DLC, that’s not necessary.
The money I earn from my original intention is enough to support the game development team and develop the next game..."
The video is not long, and Mr. Luo is very sincere.
But I don’t know why, but all the players who saw this video were a little confused from beginning to end.
A businessman wants to sell something, but before selling it to you, he starts telling you about its shortcomings.
The most critical point is that since you said that you made this game have so many shortcomings because of your selfishness, then this selfishness should be a great thing, right?
Don't you have to give everyone a serious introduction to what your selfish motives are?
Don't say anything, just put on a posture.
This game is suitable for most players, but it is not suitable for everyone.
What do you mean? Brothers have no money, right? Brothers can't afford it, right?
Tang Yunpeng had some suspicions about Luo Bai's behavior.
Mr. Luo essentially has a very clear control of the market, and he knows how to make a game that players will like.
The point is that "selfishness", what exactly is this thing?
Tang Yunpeng's appetite was really whetted.
But Mr. Luo never lies. Since he said that this game is not suitable for everyone, it means that this game obviously has major flaws in terms of gameplay.
That is... not fun enough.
The reason for issuing this announcement is probably because I am a little worried about a recurrence of the Ori incident two years ago.
Turn the video to the comment area, and the replies from netizens are quite interesting:
"I can understand Mr. Luo. There is a commotion in the gaming community right now. Everyone has high hopes for Wanda and the Colossus. Mr. Luo is also afraid of being backlashed."
"Don't make me laugh. You have to consider getting back your money even if you're afraid of backlash? Judging from the picture, you have invested a lot in Wanda this time. Just say you don't want it and just don't want it? I don't believe it.
It's nothing more than a different kind of propaganda. ”
"Hot Knowledge, Chuxin Game Studio has not been listed on the market, and Mr. Luo is responsible for his own profits and losses."
"In a sense, Luo is finally the most responsible game producer I have ever seen for players."
"Games are not suitable for the vast majority of people? Niche games? Why don't you change it if you know this? It's not like brothers don't give you time."
"Mr. Luo's selfishness, I'm really looking forward to it..."
To be honest, Tang Yunpeng feels envious now.
Not being constrained by capital, like Mr. Luo, being able to make whatever games he wants is the dream of every game producer.
But let’s add Shadow of the Colossus to our wish list first.
And with the fermentation of the interview video on Xiaopo Station, the news quickly spread to all major game platforms across the Internet.
The public relations company that had been "prostituted" by Chu Xin before had a bad face, but still accepted the new public relations request proposed by Chu Xin this time.
"Did you have that serious problem in your original intention? Now that the game has been made, it's naturally so hot that we don't need to worry about it. We still need to reduce the heat."
Having said that, everyone's money has been given, and the navy here is also working intensively.
Luo Bai's comments about the game itself began to be mentioned repeatedly on major game platforms. For a time, the game player group fell into chaos.
This is my first 3D game, I'm looking forward to it and want to buy it.
Mr. Luo said that the game is not suitable for the vast majority of people, so don’t buy it, and the game will be over.
Should I buy it or not?
But it was under such a premise that a brand new rhetoric began to spread.
"Remember before Dark Dungeon, the Bible was typed out during Mr. Luo's live broadcast, so Mr. Luo's video was not necessarily to say that the game was bad, but that it was relatively niche like Dark Dungeon."
"Don't you expect what Mr. Luo is talking about about selfishness?"
"You should buy it or you have to buy it. Only Mr. Luo and his family can play domestic games. If you don't buy the original game, whose game should you buy?"
The two completely different calibers suddenly caused a crazy melee across the entire network.
The heat is rising slowly.
At that time, Chuxin Game Studio.
"Who is going to stab you in the back?"
Luo Bai looked at it for a while and felt a headache.
However, he has already said his ugly words, and there are still players who do not believe in evil who want to experience it, so let them do it.
A game that was not intended to make money in the first place has almost become invincible since Luo Bai sent out that interview.
At least it won't face widespread backlash.
Time flew by and April 15th came in a blink of an eye.
"Wanda and the Colossus" is officially released!
All the anchors on the Internet are looking forward to it.
Regardless of whether this game is fun or not, at least it is popular enough.
Mr. Luo himself said it a month and a half ago. Although this game is not suitable for playing, it is quite suitable for Yun.
Since it is suitable for Yun, why do they, the anchors, still want to watch the popularity slip away from their hands by not broadcasting this game?
At this time, most gamers are ready and squatting in the live broadcast room of their favorite anchors, waiting to experience the content of this "hugely controversial" game that has been officially certified by the game developer.
The cloud is over!
If you like it, buy it.
