NetDragon Game

As the three major NetDragon game RPG distribution department in China, which is known as Tenghua and Phoenix, Li Qing is not in a good mood.

“There is no good game.”

The market for RPG games is shrinking. Even if ARPG is one of the categories, there is still a significant gap compared to traditional FPS games.

Especially since they are RPG distribution department. If they are R&D departments, it is absolutely no problem to meet the KPI of several masterpieces produced by NetDragon.

But the key is that they are the distribution department!

Apart from Lin Jiayi's two RPG games recently, there are not many other games that you can like.

"The RPG market is shrinking, and there are fewer and fewer studios and manufacturers willing to make this type of game. Where can I find so many good games for me to explore? And the concessions I give me every year are so big, and good games are not favored, and bad games are not used. Who can withstand this?" Li Qing felt aggrieved.

Thinking of this, Li Qing remembered a game project he talked about not long ago.

"The Traveler of the Eight Directions"? It seems to be this game. Originally, "The Combination of Isaac" became the dark horse of the year's independent game, and won millions of sales in one fell swoop. He heard that his new work was an RPG at first, but he was quite optimistic about it, but later, what pixels the other party wanted to do or JRPG, which left Li Qing speechless.

This is the result of the expansion!

Pixels and JRPGs seem to be two completely abandoned topics by the market.

After hearing the news, Li Qing was completely dissatisfied with the other party, especially after playing the finished game, Li Qing became even more speechless.

It is not the pixel style in the traditional sense, but the kind that is very carefully crafted, but no matter how careful it is, you are still pixels.

Moreover, the production cost can be made into more exquisite 3D. Isn’t this fart after taking off your pants?

If you can do 3D pixels, if you are a net dragon, your legs will be broken!

At the same time, the other party's asking price is quite high. The game cost is right here. Some of the results have been achieved before. However, if you are still doing games like "The Union of Isaac", then Li Qing can make a decision without saying a word and make concessions to profits, which is also within his authority.

But if you have a pixel-style JRPG, isn't this a mess?

Shaking his head, Li Qing turned on the computer and entered the industry group to see if anything big happened.

‘+999’

As soon as he opened the group interface, Li Qing saw the message numbers behind.

??????

Are your mouths Gatlin?

It seemed like I didn’t sleep until after one o’clock last night. From 1 o’clock to 8 o’clock in the morning, you talked about +999 news?

Li Qing, who had a question mark expression on Nick Young, clicked on the chat group.

‘The game "The Traveler in Eight Directions" actually sold so many copies?’

‘In fact, it is not unforeseen. Although it is a pixel JRPG game, it is completely different from ordinary pixel styles, and there is never such a game on the market that is most critical.’

‘Yes, the elements of the combat system are more inclined to strategies, such as the application of BP points. It is very fulfilling to kill the boss in one round.’

'But it wouldn't be such a hit. If it weren't for the comment mechanism of Starry Sky binding account and answering questions review, I would have suspected that Nebula Studio and Galaxy Network would have bought the water army.'

'Actually, if you really want to play this game, you will know that this game is very popular. Dubbing and CV are all luxurious lines, and the appearance is also good. Although the plot is a bit old-fashioned or even cliché, it is secretly in line with the pure kingly plot, but it is not the kind of thing that saves the world from the beginning, but connects them from the goal of eight people.'

"Yes, this is a pleasing thing. In the current mainstream games, basically the plot is about saving the world and saving humans. Players are indeed a little visually tired."

Has "Eight-Way Traveler" become a hit?

Wasn’t the first day sales only 150,000!?

Li Qing was stunned and did not look at what the people in the group continued to talk about. Instead, he closed the chat group and opened a special sales statistics website.

"Baofang Traveler" sales: 550,000.

Sales volume of 550,000 copies in two days!?

My eyes are blurred?

Looking at the sales data of the game ranked first on the sales statistics website, Li Qing was stunned.

The sales volume of 550,000 copies was 150,000 on the first day, which means that 400,000 copies were sold directly the next day?

Is this a word of mouth exploded?

Li Qing was a little confused.

Isn't this a JRPG game? Isn't this a pixel-style game?

Shouldn’t this be a carnival for niche players? Why can this game sell so much?

Countless thoughts suddenly surged into Li Qing's head, and Li Qing sat in front of the seat blankly and felt that he couldn't understand at all.

…………

As the time for "Eight-Way Traveler" has been longer, the game has slowly unfolded in front of players.

The eight travelers did not have the mission of saving the world from the beginning. Just like ordinary people, each of them has their own small goals.

In order to find the hunter of the missing master, the dancer of the revenge, and the swordsman of the fallen country who was tracing the truth of the past, they wanted to see the merchants of the outside world.

Everyone has an independent story. This story is either saving the people or a matter of oneself.

With the development of each character's plot and the theme song specially customized by Miracle Entertainment and Chen Gang, players can devote themselves to the stories of these characters.

Especially compared with "The Traveler of the Eight Directions" in the original dream memory, Yang Chen increased the relationship between eight people in the game content, and no longer just one person is the protagonist, but the other few people are all thugs.

During this journey of life, they joined the team because of some trivial matters, helped and supported each other or left temporarily in the middle.

On this point, Yang Chen refers to many games and things in dream memory. For example, in the choreography of group dramas, Yang Chen refers to a game called "Final Fantasy 6" and a TV series called "Game of Thrones", which makes the plot of the entire game more closely connected.

Whether it is JRPG or ARPG, if it is not selling dog meat with a sheep's head, it is actually to tell a good story. "The Traveler of the Eight Directions" is such a game. Even if the plot that seems to be a bit cliché, the final story still revolves around the plot of revenge, redemption, and salvation. However, starting from the personal experiences of the eight characters, this gives players some different experiences.

"This game is so fun! I refused the pixel image at first, but after getting started, I found it very beautiful. The snow scene, the real sand and reflected frontal lights in the desert are really beautiful."

"The plot feels very good too! Although I chose the little thief brother as the protagonist, everyone gives me the feeling that he is the protagonist, and as he plays, he is attracted by their story."

"When I remembered the theme song of the dancer girl, I had goose bumps!"

"I just played with the dancer girl and beat her to death to dominate people. I decided that I would put all the best equipment on my body on my sister, and swear that I would not let her suffer any more."

"Is the guy upstairs serious? Say it in advance, and you will be so angry that you want to smash the computer."

"Armor Defeat! → Maha Miracle Dance (4 effects) → JP 2 times! → EXP 100 times! → All members are dying! → Ground explosions and everyone is hurt! → The game ends!"

"2333, the upstairs have a good sense of picture."

"It's fun to dance for a while, it's fun to dance for a while, but remember to save it!"

"But by the way, the music and CV in the game are simply great! Every song feels like it matches the scene, the plot and the characters!"

"I like the dancer girl, the dancer girl is the best in the world!"

"Nonsense about businessmen girls is the king!"

"No, the most interesting part of this game, isn't it a big baby who is a thief who steals NPCs?"
