Game enthusiast Wang Chuan unexpectedly arrived in a technologically advanced parallel world.
What? Games are the Ninth Art, no less significant than music or fine arts.
Thus, starting ...
"It doesn't matter what the difference is, as long as it's fun!!"
"That makes sense, but honestly, I haven't played an interesting SLG game in a long time. Now when I see a free-to-play model with in-app purchases, my wallet starts to panic!!!"
"I'm also a little panicked, but this is a game made by Wang Chuan, and his games have always had a good reputation, so he shouldn't be crazy about encouraging me to spend money~~"
"Um...it's okay actually. I can download it for free anyway. If it works, I'll play it. If not, then I won't."
“Great idea!!!”
Players are having a lively discussion, and the game developers who have been following "Rate of the Land" are no exception! !
Among them is Tian Boxun from Penguin.
There are only two months left until the official launch of the event. As soon as these two months are over, the game selection will begin!!!
During this period, Tian Boxun took a quick look at the games and found that his biggest competitor was still Wang Chuan!
Previously, there was "Three Kingdoms Kill" with its unique gameplay and excellent reputation! !
However, the game he produced, "Three Kingdoms: Farmers in Charge", also performed well, so he still has the ability to compete.
But later, there came another one called "Rate of the Three Kingdoms", which made him a little confused.
Especially Wang Chuan actually organized an unprecedented marketing campaign for this game, which is even more confusing.
From the initial incomprehensible topic discussion to the subsequent popularity breaking the circle, it even triggered a discussion among literature and history workers!!!
Because of the growing popularity of this discussion, it has continued to spread to other places and has also boosted the popularity of "Rate of Kingdoms".
At this time, many people realized that this was a kind of marketing, a kind of promotion, a kind of publicity!!!
This method is unprecedented, precedent-setting, and textbook propaganda.
The same model can be used in movies, television, animation and other fields.
However, this method still has certain limitations, that is, it is difficult to copy.
Because the premise of this marketing is that the degree of fit with the product being promoted is very low, the promotion effect will be very poor, and the loss will outweigh the gain! !
Therefore, everyone's attention was focused on "Rate of Kingdoms".
Is the compatibility of “Rate of the Land” high?
As an SLG type game, if its content is no different from previous games, or the difference is not big, then this classic marketing will be in vain.
And Wang Chuan and Huangtu Game will also become a joke.
Among those who pay attention to this issue, Tian Boxun is naturally included!!!
Therefore, on the day that "Rate of Kingdoms" was launched, Tian Boxun put his work aside.
Download "Rate of Kingdoms", experience it carefully, and then estimate the quality of the game.
See if there is any threat to him!!!
The game platforms of "Rate of Kingdoms" are mobile and PC, and the data of the two are interoperable.
Therefore, Tian Boxun directly picked up his mobile phone, downloaded the game, and entered it directly after completion.
After entering the game, the first thing you see is the initial interface of the game, and at the same time a very grand BGM sounds.
The image shows a mighty general, sword in hand, standing on a platform, commanding his troops. Before him stand countless soldiers, neatly lined up, as if ready to go into battle at any moment!
Without stopping for too long, Tian Boxun chose to enter!!
In an instant, rolling yellow sand rose up, countless cavalrymen charged forward together, and the game's login interface appeared.
"The opening animation is simple and not amazing, but it perfectly showcases the theme of the game: conquest and war. Wang Chuan is indeed worthy of his name~~~"
Tian Boxun filled out the account of Huangtu Game while commenting on the initial animation with his words full of praise.
After the game officially starts, the first thing that comes is a simple opening animation.
However, it is different from other games. It is not a colorful CG animation, but more like a black and white comic mode.
"The Han Dynasty collapsed, and the thirteen states split apart. Here, I became a local vassal and carved out a piece of land to form a city."
"Looking around, the 2.25 million square feet of fertile sand are all unowned land..."
"Luoyang changes its flag, the six kings are gone, the four seas are united, and the thirteen states are ignited by wildfire. The smoke of war will eventually disappear, but this war will surpass everything and become an epic."
"All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects!!!"
A very long passage, like a comic strip, unfolded in front of Tian Boxun.
This is accompanied by various scenes: troops attacking the city, recruiting good generals, fighting on the battlefield, selecting troops to fight, etc.
Accompanied by the extremely exciting BGM, it makes people's blood boil and they can't wait to fight on the spot.
Actually, this opening animation can be skipped, but for the sake of studying the quality of the game, Tian Boxun still watched it from beginning to end!!!
After reading it, his brows couldn't help but frown.
This is not because the opening animation is particularly interesting. In fact, this animation is very simple and above average.
But what he focused on were the scenes and the narration!!
"The core gameplay of the game has already been revealed in the opening animation!!!"
With a sigh, Tian Boxun revealed the hidden meaning of this opening animation.
The previous stories can be said to be the general background of the game.
He attacked cities and expanded territory, occupied thirteen states, and finally marched to Luoyang to unify the world.
This is the core gameplay of the game!!!
And these are the last things I want to show to all the SLG fans!!
Thinking of this, Tian Boxun looked at "Rate of the Three Kingdoms" with complicated eyes, and his face became inexplicably heavy.
As soon as the game cutscene ended, Tian Boxun couldn't wait to enter the game.
It’s not that he really wants to play, but he wants to see what tricks Wang Chuan can perform in the game!!!
However, he was in a dilemma when it came to the next one, as he had difficulty making a decision, because it was a war game.
Therefore, players must choose their birthplace before entering the game.
However, Rise of Kingdoms is different from other Three Kingdoms games. There is no Wei, Shu, or Wu. Instead, the land is divided into thirteen states!!!
Yongzhou, Sili, Yuzhou and other places located in the center cannot be selected. Obviously, these places are related to the subsequent plots, that is, the territories that players need to fight for to unify the world.
The other lit plots are for players to choose from!!!
