Chapter 708: Fierce Gamers: The Leeks Are Willing to Be Cut
A striking notice suddenly appeared on the official website of the game "The Matrix".
The content is very simple. If players cannot complete the game within three months from the date of purchase, they can directly apply for a full refund.
Not only is it posted on the official website, but many players who like this game will see a prominent reminder pop up when they enter the game again.
The red reminder is in the upper right corner of the game, and you can click on it for a full refund at any time.
"Fuck, who are you looking down on?"
"Damn, I feel like I'm being mocked by the authorities..."
"I just don't believe it. Let's get started. I don't believe I can't pass it..."
"Damn it! Three months! If I can't beat the game, I'll quit gaming..."
"Fuck, Pangu, you're getting cocky. Begging for a walkthrough for the second level..."
After the announcement was released, countless gamers engaged in lively discussions, and the official forums were abuzz with activity.
Being ridiculed by the official, who the hell could stand that? Not being able to complete the game in three months, who are you looking down on? But these people have to admit that The Matrix is too difficult.
Each dungeon is incredibly difficult, and the most important thing is that you have to use your brain. It's completely different from some games where you just rely on the controls. Many operations require you to use your brain and study them before you can pass the level, otherwise you will get stuck.
The forum became lively, and the official announcement of "The Matrix" game triggered a wave of trial play.
Anyway, if they don’t complete the game within three months, they can quit. They want to see what magic this game has. Is it really that difficult?
People are like this. The more you forbid them to do something, the more curious they become.
The same is true for the game "The Matrix". The more you tell him it's too difficult, the more you tell him, "Don't forget, I'll refund you your money."
The more this happened, the more dissatisfied these players became. Now, in the eyes of these players, a refund would be the biggest insult to themselves.
This reverse operation caused the sales of The Matrix game to surge again, and this sales volume made other game manufacturers very envious.
"Boss, what if three months are up and there are a lot of things I can't complete?"
In Pangu Games' office, someone couldn't help but ask the boss.
"You're so stupid! If many people can't clear the game, won't we reveal the strategy to them as players?"
The boss's words suddenly made me realize. Holy shit, there's still a way to play it.
That's right. If you can't complete the game, it's a disgrace in the gaming community. It's not just about money anymore. Completing the game is a symbol of honor.
"The Matrix" has become a super IP, and the revenue that this super IP can bring to Qingyao Group is quite terrifying.
Box office, games, peripheral products, etc. A super IP can easily generate tens or even hundreds of billions of output value.
In this industry chain, it's not just Qingyao Group that benefits; many others also benefit. This is an industry, and if it develops well, more people will benefit.
The huge sales of the game "The Matrix" also made Pangu Games popular again.
But for Pangu Games, this is nothing. Because Pangu Games is preparing for a big move, and now this big move is almost ready.
In Pangu Games’ most mysterious production department, the teams of “League of Legends” and “Honor of Kings” are very busy.
After much discussion, Pangu Games finally launched two esports games: League of Legends for PC and Honor of Kings for mobile.
The production speed of these two games was very fast, especially after the use of AI technology, the production speed was even faster. Moreover, Su Yang also provided a large amount of materials and data.
With these things in place, the development of both games was very fast.
After only half a year of development, the games are basically complete. Now these two games are basically in the internal testing stage.
Every day, many staff members are testing these two games, fine-tuning the content, and carefully studying the game balance.
This game is simple, but also complex, especially the various statistics and the damage accumulation of various skills.
There are also settings of mutual promotion and mutual restraint, etc.
Moreover, there are many heroes in both games, and all heroes must be carefully set.
These two games are Pangu Games’ biggest moves.
Although the game is still in internal testing, people inside have already seen the potential of this game.
Simply put, the more you play this game, the more addictive it becomes.
It's not just about your own skills, but more importantly, teamwork. If you encounter teammates who are bad, no matter how good you are, you won't be able to lead the team.
Teamwork, operational awareness, and strategy are all important. You need to consider the game economy, the opponent's lineup, and tactics.
This isn't a game, it's a war.
E-sports, at this moment they finally understood what Su Yang was talking about e-sports.
Aren’t these two games e-sports? They have directly bid farewell to the combat methods of traditional games and cooperate with each other to fight. This is e-sports.
"Fuck, I lost again, Third Brother, can you please stop cheating people?"
After another round of testing, one group failed directly.
"Oh, equipment mistake. Hehe, no, the more I play, the more addicted I become."
The third brother shook his head, and the others also laughed.
Yes, the more you play, the more addictive it becomes. That’s the game.
"Now I finally understand why our CEO Su developed an anti-addiction system. If children were to play this game, they would definitely become addicted."
The third brother said seriously, and the others nodded.
The anti-addiction system has been developed. This system was developed along with the two games.
The anti-addiction system is very simple. First, the account must be frequently authenticated by face recognition. Not only that, but authentication pop-ups will appear from time to time during the game.
If this type of facial recognition is not done by the person himself, the account will be in violation of the rules.
You can't refuse authentication, as that will exit the game directly. You will still be on the authentication page when you log in to the game.
The operation is simple, but there are still loopholes in the actual implementation. However, this is the greatest sincerity a game company can achieve.
For these two games, Pangu Games directly prohibits children under 16 from playing. Children aged 16 to 18 can play for a maximum of two hours per day.
Those over 18 can only play for eight hours a day. This anti-addiction system is only applicable in mainland China. As for those abroad, whether they become addicted or not has nothing to do with them.
As game developers, they hope that foreign children will become addicted to games.
But in China, games are poison. If not properly controlled, they can ruin a generation. Pangu Games didn't want to be blamed, and Su Yang and Qingyao Group didn't want to be blamed either. But they couldn't bear to miss out on the money, so they set up this system to do their best to live up to their conscience.
