Chapter 177: Jian Jin appears, the whole network is boiling
A few days later,
As Beishan continued to exert its strength, online public opinion gradually grew.
The trend on the Internet has shifted from the one-sided "Whale Leaping into the Wilderness Three-Piece Set" to a more complex discussion.
Although "Honghuang Bujiefang" is still popular, "Who Owes Whom" is still high on the free game list.
But more and more voices are beginning to deviate.
The hot topics are still there in major forums, game communities, barrage video areas, and long review areas.
Adjustability has changed:
"The Whale Leap game... you wouldn't say it's fun, but besides marketing, what else is there?"
"If you do fighting, do fighting. If you do simulation, do simulation. You have to benchmark yourself against Kitayama, right?"
"'Unguarded' is just for the special effects, the impact is just average..."
"Leaving aside the gameplay, 'Who Owes Whom' relies entirely on the players' own social death, apart from the advertising system. Isn't that the content?"
"I laughed. The marketing is amazing, and the game is just a small stunt."
"It's so fun! It doesn't smell at all! It's also suitable for sensitive skin!"
"Looking forward to it! Beishan's "Sword Embers Island" is really solid, with smooth action and full of martial arts flavor."
"3D fighting isn't new, and Whale Leap relies on fancy special effects to attract attention."
“…”
Especially after the official release of a blockbuster video from Beishan Games,
Sword Embers Island: Martial Soul Gameplay Preview
The beginning is an ancient war song + ink-and-wash broken opening.
This was followed by a demonstration of the extremely smooth switching between dual swords, spears, fists, palms, and footwork.
Coupled with the artistic scenes of rainy night in the mountains and the deserted island,
This has caused many players who were originally addicted to martial arts to start wavering:
"Fuck, this is an action game!"
"That whale leap was an explosion effect, this is real physical feedback!"
"Why do you have to praise one and criticize the other? The games played by Jingyue and Beishan are completely different!"
"I'm not trying to be mean, but honestly... this is what it feels like to be hit."
"And look at Kitayama's demonstration of how to use it. Just for this reason, I made an appointment right away!"
"Whale Leap didn't say they were doing the impact! No matter how much money you get, you'll be everywhere!"
"Jingyue only makes promotional videos, while Beishan is the one that actually makes the products."
…
Lu Ming sat in the office, leisurely browsing the comments.
He held his chin with one hand, but there was a glint in his eyes.
"Tsk... OK, this is really starting to get noisy!"
Lu Ming read the comments in various sections with great interest.
This is what he expected!
And the closer it gets to the launch of Beishan Game, the more popular it will be.
This wave of operations not only added fuel to the fire, but also contributed a wave of traffic to Beishan.
They might even thank us!
Right now, the number of reservations for "Sword Embers Island" is approaching tens of millions.
This large number of users,
Just take a quick look,
The debt value brought about by that is enough for me to spend!
Moreover, it is not only the Beishan area,
On the Jingyue side, the criticism of "Who Owes Whom" is still strong!
"Why don't you give me some advertising? The apology button is on cooldown for 24 hours? I'm heartbroken, you know that?"
"I don't even remember why I play games anymore... I feel like I'm at work now, and all the NPCs are my bosses."
"Jingyue, do you understand business? Why don't you open up more advertising channels?"
The more Lu Ming looked, the brighter his eyes became.
"Who Owes Whom" now has a game rating of 4.3 points.
The number of items in stock has exceeded one million, and the revenues brought by the two games are also very considerable!
Many people play it, many people criticize it, and the ratings are high.
The quality is not amazing, but it is acceptable.
Perfect.
This is a dream journey!
That’s right! This game is the most ideal game in Lu Ming’s mind!
You know, in his original conception, "Who Owes Whom" was at most just a younger brother of "Lost in the Wilderness".
An auxiliary product, a social simulation game that is given away for fun.
Who would have thought that it would become the game with the highest concentration of social emotions among players.
This game is so awesome, I’m now a regular!
The comments section is full of:
“How should I apologize?”
"My favor account has exploded."
"My cultivation of immortality is like being a human resources specialist."
What’s even more outrageous is that these people haven’t given up yet.
Online time has soared, and community topics are constantly updated.
How much debt value will this contribute to myself!
It would actually be nice if I could settle the bill myself now!
…
In early May,
The day when "Sword Embers Island" was officially launched.
At noon sharp, the official blog of Beishan Games posted a calm message:
[Swords burn on the lonely island, and murderous intentions rise in the martial arts world—"Sword Embers Island" is now online, waiting for you to board the island.]
Game price: 99 yuan.
Platform tags: Chinese martial arts, action survival, battle royale.
Core gameplay: A hundred people compete in the arena, on the line between life and death.
The picture below is just a cover with overlapping black and white, swords and shadows, in a minimalist style without any exaggerated publicity.
But the next second, the entire gaming circle exploded instantly as if it had been detonated!
Weibo's hot searches, Yinlang.com recommendations, Hupu's homepage, Tieba's pinned posts, Steam, and the header images of major live streaming platforms all show the same entry:
Beishan's new work, Sword Embers Island, is officially launched.
In just ten minutes, the entry entered the top three of the hot list.
The comment section, barrage section, and live broadcast platform have all collapsed.
It seems like everyone is playing this game.
"Go! I bought it a long time ago!"
"Fuck, this map is so beautiful!"
"It feels so smooth! I got goosebumps when the blades collided!"
"I've already killed five people. I don't want to fight. I just want to see the art."
"I'm fighting nine people by myself. I feel like Hong Qigong!"
"This is the martial arts world, with its bloodiness and dignity."
"Beishan Games is really stable."
"Just now... Brothers, this is the real martial arts Shura field!"
The live broadcast area also began to boil.
All the major anchors and live anchors are joining the action.
Some acted like young knights, some imitated grandmasters, and even some anchors COSed as white-robed swordsmen.
Dancing, fighting and reciting poems at the same time.
"In the past, peach blossoms bloomed along the three paths; today, the sword shines brightly on people's hearts—Brothers! I charge!"
Almost in an instant, "Sword Embers Island" completed the most cruel and ritualistic first launch brainwashing.
Less than two hours after the server was launched, it was already approaching capacity.
And at this moment, inside the Whale Leap.
Lu Ming was sitting in the conference room. He had just taken out a can of Coke and before he could open the ring,
Of course, he also got this wave of popularity,
He blinked, looked at the "Real-time Popularity Ranking", and took a deep breath.
"Sword Embers Island" ranked first in the hot search on all platforms.
"It's finally here."
Lu Ming grinned.
They have been laying the groundwork for so long,
Whether it will succeed or not depends on today’s results!
Lu Ming didn't show any surprise, but instead seemed to have finally waited for the key link in the plan.
“It’s really online.”
“It really exploded.”
Lu Ming smiled and shook his head, then
I opened the Steam platform and bought a copy of "Sword Embers: The Island" directly.
Install, load, and enter the game, all in one go.
In the screen, there is first a black and white ink opening animation.
A storm is about to come, the mountains are silent, the setting sun is blood-red, and the background sound is the gloomy sound of war drums and the sound of swords.
Naming, selecting players, single player duel...
Lu Ming officially entered the game.
