MTL - Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall?-Chapter 61 Achievement Achievement - Comeback!
Chapter 61 Accomplished Achievement—A comeback!
Shen Miaomiao knew the results of the first day of "Phobia".
Over two thousand copies!
It's not even as good as the sales performance she predicted before!
That's why she put the golden wind aside so reassuringly, and spent a week at home to work on her thesis.
After all, even if Phobia can maintain a sales volume of 2,000 copies per day, the weekly revenue will be around 650,000 at best, and after deducting the commission, it will be around 500,000.
It's still far from the cost of two million!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help being genuinely happy, thinking that the first thing she would do when she returned to the company tomorrow was to kiss the green fifty yuan on her desk!
Then introduce it to it, and say that many brothers and sisters have come to accompany it!
Those brothers and sisters are so beautiful!
Everyone is wearing bright red clothes!
And they are all in bundles!
That thing goes in the money counter, huh—
It is simply the most beautiful symphony in the world!
Shen Miaomiao even thought of the scene of herself swimming in the sea of money.
Then, I heard a crisp sound in my mind!
【Ding! time up! This round of investment settlement is complete! 】
【Project: Phobia】
【Project investment amount: 2 million yuan】
【Project rebate amount: 0 yuan】
【Remaining settlement time: 0 (settled)】
【Ding! Detected that the host has turned a profit! Reach the hidden achievement - Comeback! 】
【Achievement Reward: Super Guaranteed Card】
【The reward has been distributed, the host can use it at any time! 】
Shen Miaomiao still had a smile on her face, but her whole body was petrified.
It's like being disconnected in the game Earth ol.
ah?
Have you started yet?
It has ended.
The brain was down for two full minutes!
Shen Miaomiao stiffly raised her hand, and mechanically logged into the backstage of the enterprise end of the game platform on the computer to check the data.
See the [Latest Release] column after the title of Phobia, followed by its current sales data—
Real-time sales: 55557 sets
Total sales amount: 2,500,065 yuan
Looking at the two lines of numbers, Shen Miaomiao effortlessly calculated the final seven-day profit amount of "Phobia" after deducting commissions—
2000052 yuan.
Not many.
It will be like fifty-two dollars more than the total investment amount.
Without the slightest hesitation!
Shen Miaomiao acted completely out of instinct!
"I—the frog in the day!!"
Snapped!
Shen Miaomiao slapped the laptop shut!
Crap! This is it!
There were more than 2,000 copies on the first day, how could it do more than 50,000 copies in just one week? !
This **** is almost catching up with the sales of medium and large somatosensory cabin games!
Shen Miaomiao is about to go berserk!
Actually, if she just lost money and failed, she would not have such a big reaction.
Anyway, this is not the first time that I have lost money and failed.
The point is that this **** system is so ridiculous! !
He also deliberately gave himself the achievement of "comeback"!
oh!
I lost five yuan last time! This time I made an extra fifty!
I just make a comeback? !
Can I get up with just these two b dollars! !
Shen Miaomiao felt that the system was mocking herself maliciously!
certainly!
The most abominable thing is not the system, but the black hand behind the scenes who is obstructing it and maliciously increasing the sales of my game!
2,000 on the first day, 50,000 on a single day, Shen Miaomiao is not mentally handicapped, of course it can be seen that there is a problem!
Immediately concluded that during the week when I didn't pay attention to the company, there must be some external cause involved!
Otherwise, the sales of the game will not increase suddenly!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao turned on the computer again, and entered "phobia" in the search engine.
click.
Soon, overwhelming news appeared on the pop-up web page—
《Terror Comes! A number of evaluation websites have given super high scores to phobia! "
《The evaluation of all platforms exceeds 9.5! Phobia creates a new genre of horror games! "
"What kind of game has won countless high scores? The exclusive topic will take you to deeply analyze the essence of the design of phobia! "
《…》
Evaluation? !
Shen Miaomiao was full of question marks!
She had heard Gu Sheng talk about this way of publicity before.
It is said that this is a very powerful means of publicity, and it is very recognized by players!
But the problem is, generally speaking, the mainstream professional media evaluation team will only select masterpieces for evaluation.
Works like theirs worth a million or so won't catch people's eyes at all!
So... where did this so-called evaluation come from?
Shen Miaomiao continued to scroll down the mouse—
"Yiyou announces to create an exclusive theme for ghosts! Two steps to teach you to get it quickly! "
《Supernova Treatment! Yiyou released a blockbuster event, and the topic of phobia games was released, somatosensory cabin! "
《…》
Looked at the screen for two seconds!
Shen Miaomiao didn't hold back, and laughed out of anger on the spot!
Pointing at the words Yiyou on the screen, he gritted his teeth:
"Boy, you fucking..."
It’s you again!
Shen Miaomiao let out a long sigh in her heart!
The dog takes the mouse!
Shen Miaomiao is such a smart person, she immediately realized that Yan Sheng was misunderstood by the extra 80,000 yuan she gave!
Brother, can you stop imagining...
I just want to increase the production cost within the allowable range of the system...
What do you say you always wear a full vest to cooperate with me...
but!
Think again!
Is something wrong?
Before, Lao Gu told her about the media evaluation, saying that it was an extremely powerful means of double-edged sword publicity.
The game is ready, and the evaluation will promote the game to the altar, driving sales to rise steadily.
But if the game is not good, the review will point out the problem unceremoniously, and even have a negative effect on the sales of the game!
and!
Those mainstream evaluation media are very fond of feathers.
You can spend money or rely on relationships to find them to help with the evaluation, but the results of the evaluation are beyond your control!
Good is good, bad is bad!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao scratched her head a little.
Because in her opinion, Phobia is completely an anti-mainstream work, and even to put it bluntly, it fundamentally destroys the setting mode of horror games!
Why are everyone applauding unanimously? ? ?
Shen Miaomiao really couldn't understand.
So I randomly clicked on one of the most popular reviews, and read it carefully—
"Black Box Evaluation: "Phobia" a ghost card that redefines horror games (9.8/10
Shen Miaomiao grinned seeing the score as high as 9.8.
So tall!
Turn the screen and look down, and you will see what is written in the evaluation—
【It is no exaggeration to say that this is the best horror game I have played on the somatosensory cabin platform in the past five years, none of them】
【The reason for saying this is because it created an unprecedented type of 'online horror game'】
【Secondly, and most importantly, it created a new branch of horror games from scratch】
【We call it—psychological horror】
【It cancels the customary weapon settings of traditional horror games, allowing players to be unarmed and feel panic all the time】
【It cancels the rigid and lengthy process of traditional horror games, shortens the tasteless foreshadowing, and presents the excitement immediately】
【It cancels the inherent empty map of traditional horror games, creates a cramped space, and the tension is full】
【From vampire survivors to phobias, Golden Wind once again proved their unique understanding of the game】
【From the picture to the sound effect, from the environment atmosphere to many settings, this game seems to remind you all the time - there are ghosts here, but you have nothing to do】
【And this is precisely the most subtle part of psychological horror】
【…】
Looking at the lines of comments, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help frowning slowly—
These blown-out settings...
Why do I look so familiar?
Look at the player comments below—
‘To the point, to the point, and well-founded (like it)’
‘Aside from other things, the feature of not having a weapon is a real cub. After entering the game, I am really panicked (angry)’
'The setting of the short process has greatly compressed the lengthy foreshadowing of the game, and it cuts straight to the theme when it comes up, and the design is really awesome (I love it)'
‘Forty-five bucks for five minutes and then kick me, I’m an idiot (yeah)’
‘This game is really full of blood pressure, and the switching of the sense of space is too scary (scared)’
‘9.8 is still quite pertinent, as expected of a box girl (opening Coke)’
‘…’
Evaluations are all real feedback from players.
Look at the comment area, look at the evaluation.
Look at the comment area again, and then look at the evaluation.
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help asking a question from the depths of her soul—
ah?
No weapons, short process, small map, multiplayer online...
Isn’t this special meow the big pit I listed one by one at the beginning! !
this moment!
Thinking Explosion!
Where did I come from and where will I die? Why should I appear in this world? Did the world choose me or did I choose the world? Does the universe have an end? Is there a length of time? Where does the past time disappear? Where does future time stop?
Who killed me?
And who did I kill? !
Long time!
The evaluation page scrolls to the end.
Look at the dazzling seven characters [New Flagship of Horror Game] at the end of the review!
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but let out a cry of despair in her heart!
**** it!
Is... I killed me? !
What a crime!
Shen Miaomiao gritted her teeth, as if she had eaten a mouthful of Jiuzhuan large intestine that retained the original flavor.
but!
Apart from being annoyed, Shen Miaomiao also decided to learn from the pain!
no!
I can no longer lose money aimlessly like this!
She has to find out the root cause of the failure to lose money, and try to avoid it in the next work!
Otherwise, if you just think about it and do it, you will have to wait until the year of the monkey to lose money!
Losing money! Have a plan too!
Come to think of it.
Shen Miaomiao took the pen and began to record and analyze on the paper—
first! It's the type of gameplay!
From Leo the Cat to Who is Daddy, from Vampire Survivor to Ghostphobia.
These games are either abstract in gameplay, or unpopular in genre, and they are 'carefully selected' by me, seemingly inevitable tracks!
but!
It is precisely because of the unpopular genre of these games that they are hard to find rivals in the market!
And this situation is very scary!
Because once such a game explodes, it will easily form a monopoly on the market!
Shen Miaomiao, who was born as a top financial engineer, understands the horror of monopoly very well.
In any industry, whether it is watches, jewelry or breakfast restaurants, even if it is picking up junk, once it monopolizes the market, the benefits it brings will be astronomical!
Um!
Shen Miaomiao nodded.
It seems that my previous thoughts are really dangerous enough.
The next work is going to change a bit, try to do the opposite, and focus on popular game types, such as guns, cars and balls.
That type of competition is fierce, it is difficult for them to stand out, and the probability of overturning is higher!
Swish Swish Swish—
Shen Miaomiao wrote it down in a small notebook.
Next! It's just an attitude!
Before, I had always been too conservative, and I was extremely resistant to announcements.
But it was precisely because of this that Yiyou frequently misunderstood, and made up her mind, and gave her a crotch announcement!
Damn it!
Whenever this Shen Miaomiao was mentioned, Shen Miaomiao would be furious!
What's more, once you don't announce that you have no money, and twice you say that you have no money, what will happen next?
Ten times, eight times, thirty or fifty times, never announce it?
Although Gu Sheng was just a smart guy with no experience in the industry from his resume, Shen Miaomiao always felt that something was wrong with him, a bit like an old-timer in the game industry.
It's been a long time, and it's hard to guarantee that he won't see something tricky.
so!
For the next game, let’s find Xuanfa. It’s more normal, and you can tell Yan Sheng, the scary whale, in a fair and honest way: Don’t be so self-sacrificing! !
Swish Swish Swish—
Shen Miaomiao wrote down her thoughts in a small notebook again.
third! It is game investment!
There is nothing to say about this.
The higher the investment, the slower the cost recovery. Simple and easy to understand.
She only hated Old Comrade Shen for refusing to subsidize her.
Otherwise, she has to invest Shen's capital in it!
At that time, the system rebates will always be astronomical, and it may even directly affect international currency relations!
"well…"
However, just think about it in your head, Shen Miaomiao sighed.
Be more pragmatic and start to change from small aspects.
Be down-to-earth, step by step, open your mind, forge ahead, and lose money in an orderly manner!
Think of it!
Shen Miaomiao threw the pen aside, looked at her little notebook with satisfaction—
"Hmmm... big fire type... gun car ball... increase the difficulty of competition..."
"Well... Properly announce it... Make a show... Reduce the chance of accidents..."
"After that, invest more money!"
Perfect!
Shen Miaomiao clapped her hands!
Since I succeeded in stealing chickens and dogs before, this time, let me be beaten openly!
Thinking about it, Shen Miaomiao's mood brightened, and she snapped her fingers—snap!
"System! What is your comeback reward card? Take it out and let me see!"
【Ding! The "Resurrection" achievement reward has been called for you: Super Guarantee Card]
【Description: After use, the rebate rate of the next investment will increase to (extractable) times】
【Note: The draw rate will not be lower than the inherent rebate rate, with a limit of 100 times】
See here!
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but shine!
Good stuff!
Before, the time was shortened, but this time, the rebate rate was increased!
"Draw!"
Following Shen Miaomiao's crisp drink, the magnification turned and finally fixed on the gleaming golden word 100!
"Wuhu!"
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help cheering and jumped up from her chair!
"I got it! I got it! I got it!"
"One hundred times! Jackpot!"
"This time, I really want to make a comeback hahahahahaha..."
