A turn-based online game that hadn’t been updated for half a year, had a development budget seven times that of its competitors, yet only made a tenth of their revenue—a total failure. A game t...

May 7th.
The final test of the dota map was completed.
After the final test was completed.
Linmu Studio held an internal competition inside the Linmu Studio, just like when "Hero" was first launched.
However, this time it was not open to the public like "Hero".
Lin Yao also participated in the competition.
In addition to her, the other players in the competition were staff members of the project team.
As for the result...
I have to say.
The staff members inside the studio are really amazing...
I don’t know if it’s because they have experience in developing MOBA games and RTS games, or they are naturally gifted.
The "dota" map was just made, and they played it well.
Lin Yao was almost shut out, super ghost, and lost the game.
Although Zhong Xiu later complained that it was all because of Lin Yao's bad taste.
But Lin Yao felt that he was just slandering him.
I ignored him.
Anyway.
The map was made. The
next step is to prepare for the launch.
Lin Yao was also prepared for this.
She was so excited at the time that she wanted to not even give Kexi Entertainment any soup, and directly launch two different types of MOBA games to block their way.
The idea was good, and the map was made.
But how to attract the audience for this map and how to promote it without destroying the current good momentum of "Heroes" became a new problem...
She really thought about it for a long time.
In the end, she decided to use the RTS temperament as a selling point.
As for how the players will choose in the end,
it depends on them.
She doesn't need to teach players to choose games and play games, the players will choose by themselves.

May 10th.
This day.
For many players,
it was a calm day.
There was no big move or big news in the gaming circle on this day. There were
new third-party games landing on the Vaporwave game platform every day.
But now the Vaporwave game platform is already the largest online distribution platform. Any third-party game, whether it is a big company or a small studio, can no longer ignore this channel.
The launch of new third-party games is really not a new thing on the Vaporwave game platform.
Unless it is a masterpiece from some big companies.
Some small-scale independent games are really difficult to make a big splash.
Most players still do what they should do on this day.
Wu Gaoyang is just like usual.
He opened the Vaporwave game platform, and then took a quick look at the newly launched new games. He felt that there was nothing worth paying attention to, so he turned around and opened the game library, ready to have a simple and exciting "Warcraft" battle.
But just after jumping to the game library.
He suddenly realized that something was wrong and jumped back to the store homepage.
In fact, sometimes actions are faster than brains...
Wu Gaoyang jumped back to the store page.
Look at the top of the store page.
Sure enough.
At the top of the store homepage, there is a promotional picture of "Warcraft".
He was not wrong.
Wu Gaoyang looked at the promotional picture and was a little surprised.
"Warcraft" has been on sale for so long, and it is still being promoted in such a big way?
Then he took a closer look. He
found that this promotional page is not only promoting Warcraft, but also has a suffix behind the title of Warcraft.
Warcraft: Defense of the Ancients .
And below the entire promotional picture, there is a line of small words-a MOBA map with a more RTS temperament is now online in the creative workshop.
"MOBA? More RTS-like?"
Wu Gaoyang was stunned when he saw the word, and then he immediately became interested.
He is considered a hardcore RTS player. He has played Heroes. Although he thinks this type of game is really interesting, he always feels that something is missing... too simple.
It lacks the temperament of RTS.
A game that was originally derived from RTS ended up being a game that has nothing to do with RTS and only inherited some of the operations. He was a little uncomfortable with it.
So after playing for a week, he ran back to play Warcraft.
Later, occasionally, he would open Heroes to play a few games.
But the more he played, the more he felt it was a pity.
It's a pity that Linmu Studio is so capable, but it didn't make a MOBA game that took over Warcraft...
But now...
has it really been made?
Wu Gaoyang looked at the promotional picture, and was stunned to see the small words below.
At this moment, in fact, all Warcraft players were stunned when they saw this promotional picture.
It took a long time.
Wu Gaoyang came back to his senses, and then, with curiosity, he clicked on the promotional picture.
What jumped out was the store page of "Warcraft".
"Warcraft", which has been on sale for a long time, has a new promotional video.
Wu Gaoyang clicked it with anticipation.
Light music, accompanied by a low voice, sounded at the same time.
There was no foreshadowing.
Straight to the point.
"Alone against the whole world."
A man wearing heavy armor and a strange helmet appeared in the center of the video, slowly tilted his head and looked at the screen.
In addition to the lines.
There is also an introduction about him below-'The great believer of the God of Order, the Paladin Sven who vowed to protect the rights of all living beings. '
"Now we are in the same boat!"
Before Wu Gaoyang could react, the next hero came out.
A man wearing a costume with a strong atmosphere of the times and pirate style turned and walked towards the mysterious door that was slowly opening.
There is also his introduction below-'The leader of Kul Tiras, the admiral of the Alliance Navy. '
"I am not afraid of death, but I don't want to die yet."
The third one is an orc.
He took a machete and strode forward.
Then.
It was the fourth, fifth, and sixth.
"I am a mystery!"
"I exist, I control!"
"Meet Magnus's horn!"
"A piercing cold wind blows..."
"I guard the way of trees."
"The four seasons cycle in a hurry..."
"The road lined with trees, the grass covered with sunshine, here I come..."
"I'm back to this world, it can still be saved."
The end of the video.
A beautiful female mage was given.
She opened her hands, condensed the flames, and said her lines.
"It's better to burn out than to fade away..."
And finally, as this line was said, the flames in her hands enlarged, gradually condensed into a ball, and then the title of 'Defense of the Ancients' appeared.
Below is a notice to guide players - 'A brand-new gameplay, a MOBA map with a more RTS temperament, now online in the creative workshop! '
"..."
The video finished playing and paused.
Wu Gaoyang looked at the pause window. He shuddered suddenly, and his arms were covered with goose bumps.
The only feeling is.
Linmu Studio is really good at creating an atmosphere.
It was just simple hero dialogues, coupled with music, but it was exciting.
He didn't even know who these heroes were!
Wu Gaoyang rubbed his arm vigorously, then held the mouse again and opened the creative workshop.
His eyes lit up.
No matter what.
He was now very interested in this map...!
