Chapter 319 Accused
"Ah? The map author of 'Lone Hero' is resurrected? Wasn't he recruited by Cosi Entertainment?"
The next day.
Linmu Studio.
Lin Yao was a little surprised to hear the news from Zhong Xiu.
"I don't know either... Yesterday I wanted to check the comments of the DOTA map, and then I happened to see the author of the 'Lone Hero' map discussing with players in the comment section..."
Zhong Xiu shook his head slightly, and then said with a smile: "They are discussing the difference between dota and "Hero"... I guess they are also playing our maps. It's not like employees of other game companies don't play our games."
Linmu Studio is now a benchmark.
Lin Yao's colleagues are indeed paying attention.
"...Okay."
Lin Yao felt that what he said made sense and nodded.
Then, she quickly put the matter behind her and asked, "How popular is the DOTA map?"
"Very good."
When Zhong Xiu heard this question, he immediately put "Lone Hero" behind his mind and said with a smile: "Although it is not as exaggerated as "Hero", there are some debates among players, arguing whether Hero is better or DOTA is better... But in any case, DOTA had nearly 400,000 players online last night. And we counted that most of these players have purchased "Warcraft", and they are considered to be the group of players with strong paying ability.
As long as we grasp this group of players, basically, most of the players of MOBA games will be ours!
For those who are interested in MOBA games, those who want something simple and quick to get started can have "Hero", and those who want something with some difficulty and RTS temperament, we have "DOTA", and many players even play both games!"
Lin Yao also smiled when she heard this, and said, "That can't be said. There will always be rising stars... But if you consolidate the operation well, it will be difficult for other manufacturers to seize the market."
"Yeah."
Zhong Xiu nodded vigorously, then glanced at Lin Yao and smiled again.
Actually, he didn't say something...
Some of his classmates also work in game companies. When the dota map came out, they all cursed...
Because since the launch of MOBA games, many game companies have seen that they have a wide audience.
After all, it is completely different from traditional online games.
So many game companies have similar projects after the launch of "Heroes".
But now, Linmu Studio has not only launched "Heroes", but also launched a custom map "dota"...
It directly absorbed the players who didn't like "Heroes".
It didn't give other game companies any chance...
Many game companies have evaluated the gap between their MOBA projects and "DOTA" and "Heroes", and have already thought about giving up.
There is no way.
"Heroes" is now so powerful, and the risk of a head-on confrontation is too great, and there is also the possibility of legal disputes, so many companies have adopted a differentiation strategy.
But now... Linmu Studio also has a differentiated MOBA map.
This makes the situation of newly launched MOBA games very difficult...
Of course.
This is only part of the peers.
There are still some peers who have different ideas.
After all, it is a bit difficult.
But there is still a chance.
Because DOTA is still just a map after all...
In addition, the concept of gameplay is also difficult to become something like copyright.
Linmu Studio's "Hero" has been so popular recently that many game companies are unwilling to give up.
Some companies are unwilling to give up before they hit the wall and suffer the pain of the initial investment.
For example, Kesi Entertainment.
Zhong Xiu also knows this.
"By the way, Lin Yao."
Zhong Xiu thought of this and immediately spoke up and talked about his worries.
In simple terms, he was afraid that someone else would complete the online game first.
"Actually, I haven't thought about this at all. The current map is very good, so it's up to you next. If you think it's necessary, you can make it an online game. Now the game mechanism and system of the entire map are very complete. You know this better than me. The dubbing work has never stopped. You decide for yourself."
Lin Yao looked at Zhong Xiu and spread her hands.
She actually didn't think about the online game at all... This time, DOTA, first, is to seize the market and not even give Kesi Entertainment a share of the soup. After all, she knows better than anyone the player loyalty of this map. Second, it's for some feelings.
But she also knew that if it was restricted by Warcraft, then DOTA would have limitations. After leaving the framework of Warcraft, the gaming experience would not be affected, and the quality would be even better.
In addition, Linmu Studio is a commercial company.
So, although she had never thought about turning it into an online game, she did not object.
"You just gave up?" Zhong Xiu widened his eyes when he heard Lin Yao's words.
Lin Yao also glared at him: "What do you mean by giving up? What do you want me to do?"
Zhong Xiu began to cry: "At least design a signature skin and accessories... We can't lose you! Lin Yao!"
Lin Yao: "..."
OK.
Revenge on others, and dig a hole for yourself.
...
Although Lin Yao really wanted to slack off.
But because of Zhong Xiu's strong request.
In the end, she agreed to Zhong Xiu...
But during this period, because of the DOTA incident, the progress of "Witch" was delayed.
Besides, the DOTA map has just been released.
It is still in the rising stage, and there is no rush to make it an online game.
Lin Yao temporarily put her mind back to the "Witch" project.
Next,
Lin Yao returned to her previous state.
Running between the motion capture base and Linmu Studio.
At the same time,
"Hero" and "DOTA", a game, a map, spread at a speed that can be described as terrifying, and continuously attracted players...
This situation reached its climax when the overseas version of "Hero" was launched, and the "DOTA" map was also officially launched in the overseas version of "Warcraft" battle mode.
The monthly turnover of Linmu Studio this month is a bit exaggerated.
Even Mu Wanqing thinks it is exaggerated.
"Hero" alone brought nearly ten-digit income to Linmu Studio in one month.
Although DOTA is just a map,
this map... also has the game itself.
This also brought an exaggerated income.
Although Linmu Studio has no habit of publishing financial reports,
many people in the industry don't need to look at financial reports. Just looking at public opinion and players, they know what the current situation is.
Many clubs have already begun to urgently set up relevant branches.
They began to predict the operation of Linmu Studio.
And Lin Yao was also happy to see it happen.
After all, MOBA games, e-sports is a very important part.
Now Linmu Studio has the confidence and ability to set up a league.
It just lacks the east wind!
However.
Just when players were playing "DOTA" and "Heroes".
Colleagues lamented the strong money-making ability of this kind of game.
When Linmu Studio actually launched two MOBA games.
Lin Yao suddenly heard a piece of news that surprised her.
The author of the "Lone Hero" map, Kang Yi... was sued.
