Chapter 27 Game situation
After Zhang Heng returned from the electronics market, he began to experience new games.
As a veteran player, naturally first experience the masterpieces of the renowned Shengshi Company.
Proficiently insert the game cassette and turn on the game, and soon some cute and strange animals jump into their eyes.
“It looks pretty good.”
After all, the foundation of the prosperous era is profound. In addition, the game industry in this world is far beyond that of He Chen's original world, so the game production level is extremely high. Even the hasty work of "Elf Baby" that plagiarizes He Chen's "Pokemon", cannot allow players to pick out any flaws.
The exquisite 3D model and vivid characters make people fall in love with this game world at a glance.
"Elf Baby" is a role-playing game, referred to as RPG. Players can control their own characters, capture elves, and embark on adventures.
"It's a very regular adventure RPG game routine, but the elves you capture can be a little more innovative."
He couldn't count the games Zhang Heng had played, so he quickly got started after experiencing them for a few seconds, but he was a little disappointed inside.
"It's a pity that I've played too many games. It's been a long time since the game world has seen a refreshing game."
"Elf Baby" took Zhang Heng a week to pass the level. Fortunately, the holiday is approaching and there are not many classes in the school, so he can play games unscrupulously.
Zhang Heng sighed, threw the handheld machine next to the pillow, lying on the bed, feeling a burst of emptiness in his heart.
After a while, he got up and sat next to his computer, opened a handheld game forum, and posted a new post about "Elf Baby".
"The Complete Guide to "Elf Baby"."
Countless people who saw this post immediately lit up their eyes and quickly opened them, and directly pulled them to the bottom to leave a message: "Oh! Master Jun Mowen has passed the "Elf Baby" so quickly! Congratulations! I'm only halfway through now."
Jun Mowen, a well-known player in the game forum is proficient in any type of game, world-class level, and has even been invited by some game magazines to comment on games and publish game strategies.
"There are 30 kinds of elves in "Elf Baby", and I have only conquered 10 kinds. Thank you for sharing. Finally, I have a way to collect them all!"
Zhang Heng browsed casually and said some thanks from time to time below.
A few years ago, he might have been excited by these words, but now he has long been used to it. Apart from the wonderful games, nothing can make his heart turbulent again.
After closing the web page, Zhang Heng opened the largest game news network, looking for any new game releases worth paying attention to in the near future, but saw a dazzling headline.
"Congratulations to Shengshi's new game "Elf Baby" for its sales of 330,000 in the first week!"
Zhang Heng felt relieved after thinking a little. There were no outstanding games recently. Although the Elf Baby is cliché, it is known as a prosperous era. To be fair, the game is indeed good, and it is natural to be able to exceed 330,000.
It exceeded 330,000 in the first week, and then the annual sales volume exceeded 1.5 million, so there should be no big problem.
Another classic game was released in the prosperous era.
Zhang Heng sighed mentally, when he opened the news, it turned out that many celebrities in the game industry made the same judgment as him.
However, some of these contents attracted Zhang Heng's attention.
In these analysis of "Elf Baby", the prosperous times are compared with the once glorious Tiange everywhere, and it is pointed out that the new "Pokemon" of Tiange game is only 80,000.
The sales of 80,000 yuan are not even a quarter of "Elf Baby". It seems that the final sales are probably not even 300,000 yuan. Based on past experience, Zhang Heng quickly judged its final sales, and then he had only one idea in his mind.
The Tiange game that once created the Jingwumen game with a monthly sales of over one million yuan has fallen!
Zhang Heng suddenly remembered that when he bought "Elf Baby", he seemed to have bought "Pokemon" as well, and... he also bought two sets!
He finally thought of the strange sales situation that day, and then recalled that he took out two exquisitely packaged boxes from the corner of a pile of miscellaneous items on the table.
"Let's play and watch."
Zhang Heng has a characteristic: he never comments easily when he has never played a game. Because he feels that no matter how it is done, only those who have played it are qualified to evaluate it.
Zhang Heng quit the cassette of "Baby" from the game console and then plugged in the cassette of "Pokemon".
The screen turns black, and then a little light bursts out in the middle, and then the light becomes brighter and brighter, spreading around it continuously until the entire screen is reflected in white.
Then accompanied by a brisk background music, a small yellow claw suddenly broke a hole in the white background.
Two long, black tips, and the others were stretched out from yellow ears.
Immediately afterwards, the white background seemed to turn into the ground, and the yellow claws were pushing hard. A pair of black eyes, who were extremely alert, but seemed to be full of curiosity about everything around them, slowly appeared.
The two agile eyes quickly looked around, and the little head slowly stretched out from the hole, revealing two blush on the cheeks. He looked at Zhang Heng, who was looking at the screen, as if he had traveled through the game and really saw Zhang Heng. This cute little pet tilted his head and made a cry of unknown significance.
"Pika~chul?"
Then, a big mountain appeared and hit the little pet. The little guy stood against the mountain, which was extremely difficult.
Just after Zhang Heng thought that this cute little pet would be flattened, the little guy pricked up his ears, looked fierce, pouted, and shouted hard: "Pi! Ka! Qiu!"
A blue lightning suddenly bloomed from his weak body, the sky and the earth changed color, and the mountains collapsed.
Then, the mountains slowly became five words.
"Pokemon."
The name of the game finally appears!
The scattered stones fell on the ground and slowly melted, turning into a string of letters, which seemed to be a website.
"It's worthy of being Tiange, and its production level is still strong." Zhang Heng exclaimed. Just one opening scene can make people feel the strength of the former overlord.
However, I hope that the funds are not all spent on this picture before... Zhang Heng prayed in his heart and started the game.
Then, he frowned: "Same as "Elf Baby"?"
As soon as he entered, he only looked at the instructions, and he found that the contents of both were almost the same. They were both RPG adventure games, and they could catch pets.
Although the game industry does not attach as much importance to plagiarism as the publishing industry, the player group hates plagiarism.
I had a company before, with strong strength but no innovation ability, copying this and that all day long, which squeezed out those creative but not strong new companies. But in the end, this behavior triggered players' condemnation of the game industry, collectively boycotting the game company, and leading to a giant being forced to go bankrupt.
"Tiange, Tiange, I hope you don't force players who once like you to hate you completely!"
Zhang Heng murmured and officially started the strategy game.
“Please select the difficulty.”
Is this game difficult?
I looked at the options and found 4 difficulties in total: simple, ordinary, difficult, and there is also a hell. The first three are lit, and the last hell is displayed in gray.
Zhang Heng tried to choose Hell, prompting that Hardware mode needed to be completed before it could be turned on, so he chose Hardware mode.
A week has passed, and more discussions on "Pokemon" have gradually increased in the handheld game forum. More and more people know about it, and more discussions about the game are also increasing, but Jun Mowen's strategy has never appeared.
"I beg you not to ask the great master for a guide!"
"About the selection of attributes! Experts please come in!"
"About the legendary pet, has anyone caught it?"
"Little Fire Dragon, how to cultivate it?"
"The evolutionary problem of Keda Duck!"
Countless such posts keep appearing in the forum, but never wait for Jun Mowen's reply.
Some people speculate: "Will Mr. Jun Mowen not play this game?" After all, Jun Mowen has always been in every way to ask about the game questions. After so long, there has been no reply, and the possibility of not playing this game is getting greater and greater.
There was even a reward post in the forum: "Don't ask the master, I'll pay a thousand yuan to beg for a full pet collection guide!"
"All pets! Fuck you, you pay a thousand, I pay ten thousand!"
Some people who don’t know about this game are very itchy when they see that they are willing to pay such a high price when they see just one guide.
Even if you don’t want to make a bounty, as a game player, you should play this game that even has to buy a lot of money for the strategy.
Zhang Heng sat on the bed, focused on manipulating his own character, and flew out one by one with his hands flying.
Suddenly the phone rang, my hand shook, and the operation was wrong, and the word "failed" appeared on the screen.
Zhang Heng was so angry that he almost threw the phone out.
Legendary Pokémon!
It’s almost done, if someone calls himself, if it’s not an important thing, he must be good-looking!
"Zhao Ke! If you have something to do, say it and say nothing, it's time to let go!"
"Damn, did you eat explosives?"
"I'm busy!"
"Busy? Games? What game are you playing recently? Forget it, I'm discussing a game called "Pokemon" on the forum. I heard it's good. Someone asked you for a lot of money to give you a guide. Go and try it!"
"Strategy? Haha, I want a guide too!"
“…You’re playing Pokemon now?”
"nonsense!"
"How long has it been finished?"
"I'll take a look...for a week."
"How much is the progress?"
"have no idea……"
"I don't know? You are a man! After playing for a week, you don't know what your progress is?"
"How do you say this game? You will know after playing it."
“…It’s so good?”
"It's very good. If you don't play, you will regret it for the rest of your life! It's produced by Tiange, and I guess it's very likely to surpass his Jingwu Sect in the past!"
"Then I have to try it! The Tiange Game Store should be available, right?"
"By the way, you don't have to buy it. I have another set here. Come and get it right here."
"Day, are you brain ill? Buy two games?"
“…I’m meddling in other people’s business, I love to buy, what?”
Zhang Heng was embarrassed to say that he went to buy "Pokemon" and bought "Pokemon" by the way. He was even more embarrassed to say that he saw others buying dozens of sets at a time, so he was embarrassed to buy two sets.
After taking a look at "The Elf Baby" that was swept into the corner by him, Zhang Heng couldn't help but curl his lips and put it together with "Pokemon", which was an insult to "Pokemon".
Chapter completed!
