Chapter 57 Why are these players so difficult to lead?
"This game is completely out of control!"
"It's no longer 'Kryptonian Cultivation'!"
"It's become 'Working for Free'! And a socially responsible version of that!"
"Players spend less money, and there's less criticism. Everyone is busy farming, refining medicine, making clothes, doing business, and making friends..."
"It's like I'm providing everyone with a retirement community for cultivating immortality!"
Lu Ming stared at the emotional dashboard on the system panel again, his tone very certain!
"This game! We can't continue playing like this!"
…
The next second, Lu Ming made a decision.
"Adjust the rules! We must increase the burden on players!"
"Qiliang!"
"exist!"
Zhao Qiliang raised his head immediately after being summoned by Lu Ming.
Lu Ming waved his hand and whispered:
"I've made up my mind. From now on, secondary professions must come with additional consumption mechanisms."
"For example, refining pills requires consuming fatigue points! You can't refine them without rest!"
"The tools used to craft equipment all have durability added to them. They'll break after a while! If they break, they have to be replaced, and replacing tools costs money!"
Zhao Qiliang: “……???”
"Boss, calm down..."
"You calm down!"
Lu Ming looked at Zhao Qiliang,
"Look at what's posted on the forum every day now."
"'Tailoring Tips for Making Money', 'How to Earn Your First Bucket of Spirit Stones Through Alchemy', 'A Tutorial on How to Craft Basic Equipment at a Low Cost for Beginners'!"
"Tell me! Is this still a game?! This is an online startup incubation platform!"
"This group of players are now training their own apprentices to open factories and sell domestically!"
"I'm not playing games now, I'm building a harmonious neighborhood!!!"
Zhao Qiliang: “…”
"Okay, I'll do it."
Zhao Qiliang felt a little helpless. His boss's ideas were always out of sync with his, and he was used to it!
…
Soon, under Lu Ming's urging,
Everyone in the development department worked overtime.
The unified adjustments to the game have finally been implemented.
Soon, "氪命修仙" ushered in a wave of small updates.
【Update content:】
1. Added "fatigue value" limit for operations such as alchemy, clothing making, and equipment refining. The daily basic energy limit is 300 points. After use, you need to rest or take special pills to recover.
2. A new "durability" system has been added to various production tools. They will be scrapped after being used too many times and need to be replaced regularly.
3. A "repair shop" mechanism has been added to the market, where players can sell repair tools and perform equipment and tool repair operations.
…
After the update is completed,
Everyone in Jingyue opened the game forum and prepared to follow the players' dynamics in real time.
The forum administrators were familiar with the delete button and the operations team had already written the copywriting to take the blame.
As a result... not long after, new posts on the forum began to be updated.
"The sub-class in 'Kryptonian Cultivation' has been updated! A new repair system has been added, making it finally feel a bit like a life simulation!"
"Hey, today's fatigue value is used up. I'm going to take a walk in the new area. Is this forcing me to have a proper rest and work schedule?"
"The new repair shop system is so fun! I'm now a tailor, blacksmith, and tool repairer!"
"Tiangong Studio has officially opened its night shift! We work in three shifts, from 8am to 8pm! We're a factory for cultivating immortality! We don't cheat anyone!"
…
Looking at the posts on the forum, Lu Ming was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore.
He clicked on the hot posts one by one and saw those players showing off their "reasonable work and rest schedules".
He felt like he was about to split apart as he shared his “experiences in cultivating health and becoming an immortal” and his “humane adjustments”.
"I've already put the opportunity for them to 'scold' right before their lips, and they still don't want to take a bite?"
"This is challenging my patience..."
Zhao Qiliang also saw the new post and couldn't help but explain,
"Boss, this is called positive addiction."
"Have you forgotten the mentality of our current secondary professional players?"
"They don't refine pills or forge iron for efficiency; they genuinely enjoy this gameplay!"
"Even if you ask them to clock in and sign an attendance agreement, they'll still enjoy it..."
"Boss, tell me, have we really created a hit product?"
The corner of Lu Ming's mouth twitched.
Looking at the newly added item on the emotional dashboard,
Satisfaction +2%
His face gradually turned pale,
"Can this game be saved..."
"I don't even expect you to scold me. Can you please cut your losses in time and stop playing?"
Let it be a small fire, it can’t be stopped!
Anyway, he has received a lot of negative reviews before,
at the same time.
The popularity of the secondary occupation system has completely set off a second wave of enthusiasm.
And "氪命修仙" is gradually changing from "a model of garbage krypton gold game" to
Become the "dark horse of life-style turn-based cultivation games."
Countless gold-farming studios are gearing up to make a big move.
As for Zhu Hao,
We are already planning to turn "Banxia Clothing" into a brand mall.
Also started the live broadcast and sales segment in the short video
Lu Ming was speechless.
"What the hell kind of game did I make?!"
…
There are three days left until the end of the month.
Lu Ming sat in the office, staring at the tall buildings outside the window, his expression lost in thought.
He really... didn't know what to do at all.
The familiar feeling of powerlessness comes again!
For the past two days, he did nothing but stare at the [Player Emotion Dashboard] over and over again.
At first he was a little unwilling, thinking whether to raise the price of props again.
Make the "氪金 experience" of the cultivation line more extreme?
But he soon found that it was of no use.
This group of new players nowadays don’t practice Taoism at all!
They don't even care about level, combat power, or breakthrough rate.
Some people get stuck in the Qi Refining stage for a week without moving.
The reason is: "I don't want to upgrade, I haven't unlocked all the tailoring templates yet."
There are also some players who will never upgrade to the Golden Elixir stage, because there is an advanced alchemy blueprint in the Foundation Establishment stage, which can only be learned at this stage!
"If I get promoted again, I won't be able to make medicine anymore. What will happen to my career then?"
Lu Ming looked at these posts, as if they were punching deep into his soul.
He even saw a post titled:
[In "Krypton Life Cultivation", there's no need to cultivate immortality! Life's secondary occupations are the main storyline!]
There are countless likes in the comment section, and countless people agree with it.
"I play dungeons for materials, not for leveling up."
"If I get stuck at the Qi Refining stage in this game, I'll never level up again!"
"Upgrading it makes it more expensive and the materials more scarce. It's not worth it!"
"I regretted it as soon as I reached the Nascent Soul stage. I should have stayed a blacksmith in the Qi Refining stage."
"The most important thing is to get materials and studio acquisitions, and you can also earn enough money to buy milk tea!"
Lu Ming: “…”
He opened his mouth wide, unable to catch his breath, and almost suffocated himself.
What happened to these people?
They came here to play a cultivation game, but ended up finding a job simulator?
I've gone to such extreme lengths to increase the gold points, and instead of complaining, they're actually having fun playing it?!
He slammed his fist on the desk, feeling very uncomfortable:
"This game...is unsolvable."
Really, there's no turning back.
Secondary professions are deified, gold-farming studios flood into the market, and the player community spontaneously builds a complete and stable ecosystem.
This game is out of his control!
In fact, he doesn't even have the mood to use the [Marketing Random Hotspot Generator].
What if the probability is positive?
Now he definitely can't get 8 times the return,
However, 6 times is still possible, and the massive amount of criticism before cannot be digested in a short time!
And those players who paid krypton gold before are still there,
And now they are the main group scolding Jingyue,
You said you were going to throw out a negative controversial point now?
Players who play secondary jobs don’t care at all!
"The difficulty of the main storyline has increased?"
"Very good, we didn't fight anyway."
"Is the breakthrough more difficult?"
"Then I'll continue making my medicine and sewing my clothes."
How do you stir up public opinion? You can't even find a way to influence them!
Lu Ming's scalp tingled.
Why are these players so difficult to lead?
