Build a game empire from scratch

Yelang is a little big and not alone.

At this moment, some members of the "Quick Chase" development team are paying close attention to the game's sales data, some are watching the player dynamics on the social network, and some are watching the live broadcast room of several influential anchors.

Lin You and Xiao Meng are no exception.

Even on Friday, after the game was released, sales took off rapidly. In just ten minutes, it had already exceeded 3.5 million copies!

——Although most of them did not log in immediately after buying.

Under Lin You's decision, the price of "John Wick" remained at 500 yuan.

In other words, in just over ten minutes, more than 1.75 billion sales were achieved!

In the game industry, this is undoubtedly a miraculous sales speed.

But neither Yunmeng's internal nor external financial and game media were surprised.

After "League of Assassins" broke through 15 million copies and reached the world record for sales of large-scale games, Yunmeng also released several congratulatory pictures.

But after He Tu had sent 20 million copies, at Lin You's request, he stopped posting.

But everyone knows that "League of Assassins", as the first virtual reality masterpiece, was also the only masterpiece before the release of "John Wick". While the sales of Mirage are rising steadily, it is absolutely impossible for sales to stop .

After all, when "League of Assassins" sold 20 million copies, only 35 million Mirage consoles were on the shelves, which is a very outrageous ratio.

And now? Mirage mainframe sales have exceeded 100 million!

How much did League of Assassins sell?

Yunmeng is no longer announced to the outside world, but the outside world is always full of imagination.

30 million? 40 million? Or—50 million?

Isn't that...you can challenge the hottest little butter?

Not only in terms of total sales, but also in terms of sales volume, you can also challenge head-on!

Of course, the top three should not be enough. The top three small butters are all sold simultaneously all over the world, with a minimum sales of 80 million copies and a maximum of an astonishing 120 million copies!

Practitioners have divided views on this issue.

Some people think that this is a milestone in the game industry, showing the huge potential of the game industry.

However, there are also some people who think that it is a shame for the game industry to let some unrefined butter occupy the peak of sales, so that they can’t even tell laymen!

Lin You had no opinion.

He just downloaded all three butters and tried them out with a critical eye.

Before the trial play, Xiaomeng was reminded not to peek.

"Hmph! Xiao Meng is not rare!" Xiao Meng looked disdainful, shook her head and disappeared in front of Lin You.

But unfortunately—

Although these three games have merits in terms of vertical painting, plot, character creation, and gameplay, they are still too backward, so that their expressiveness is seriously insufficient.

"What a pity." Lin You sighed and shook his head.

"If it wasn't for the fact that virtual reality can't be done, we must definitely find the developers of these games and let them develop a [HD virtual reality reset], wouldn't it be a recast of the classics? Absolutely a hit !"

Having said so much, I just want to say: Yunmeng's current user base is really exaggerated, and their enthusiasm is also extremely high.

Even on weekday mornings, even if they can't play the game immediately, many players place an order without hesitation.

Of course, there were also quite a few players who rushed into Night City for the first time, and now they have exceeded a million.

And these millions of players have all gone through similar mental journeys as Yelang.

This time, even though it was a female player, Yunmeng didn't deliberately open a line, changing it to a female version of John Wick, forming a same-sex couple with Helen or something.

Instead, they adopted the same treatment as male players: everyone still has their own bodies, but when they look in the mirror, all that appears in the mirror is the face of John Wick.

In this regard, Xia Yi said: "This is not a problem, as long as I can stick with Helen, I can do it!"

All the players were driving, following the quest guidance markers in the field of vision, and slowly advancing in the early morning light rain.

Regarding the urging bullet screens from the players, Yelang was a little eloquent: "This is my car! It's so new! What if it bumps?"

The player only inherited John Wick's identity, but not John Wick's skill template, and is now in a blank state.

The driving skills are all at the most basic Lv.1 level, and they are driving entirely based on real-world experience.

But even so, a little bit closer to the destination.

It's just that when he passed a gate, Yelang was a little startled and saw a sign——

【Green Wall Cemetery】

The next moment, the car passed the signboard and drove into the interior of the cemetery. The densely packed tombstones not far away caught his eyes one after another.

Yelang blinked his eyes a little bit, feeling a strong uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't help comforting himself: "My wife came to the cemetery early in the morning, why did you come to the cemetery? Do you want to mourn your relatives? Oh, you can call me together !"

"It's hard to say, it may be tied up by someone, yes, this is more reasonable."

...

It's just that no matter how he finds reasons, he can't stop the truth from coming.

As the car slowly arrived at the destination, Yelang saw the crowd gathered together.

Unbelievably, he held up a black umbrella, holding an umbrella for his wife in his hand, and walked towards the crowd step by step.

The crowd noticed his approach, bowed their heads silently, and made way for him.

He walked through the crowd and saw the dark wooden coffin in front of him.

The mission guidance cursor stopped above the coffin, flickering silently.

The rain fell from the sky and hit the coffin, and the condensed water droplets gathered and slid down silently.

——After entering the Green Wall Cemetery, the ominous premonition finally came true.

After the husband of the deceased arrived at the scene, the staff also took action and slowly hoisted the coffin into the grave.

Yelang was a little bit big, holding an umbrella, and stood there in a daze, as if struck by lightning.

He didn't know how he should react, and he still held tightly the umbrella he brought to his wife.

Only then did he understand why the system had to guide him to put on a solemn pure black suit before setting off.

——You came to your wife's funeral and saw her for the last time, how could you not put on a proper suit?

"Wait!" Yelang suddenly said loudly.

Everyone looked at him.

Yelang took two steps forward, squatted down, slowly put the umbrella in his hand on the coffin, paused for a moment, and then stood up a little bit.

"Okay, let's continue."

So everything goes on.

fill.

pray.

...

The crowd dispersed together with sad expressions.

Except for the sound of rain, no one made any other sounds, and everything happened and ended in silence.

Only Yelang was left holding an umbrella, standing in front of the newborn tomb, and beside him stood a funeral flower stand made of yellow and white chrysanthemums, conveying silent mourning and farewell.

This silent funeral took a lot of effort from the development team.

Without using any words, through everyone's sad expressions and small movements, the sadness for Helen's death is conveyed.

And the way they looked at the player, they all revealed sympathy and compassion for the player who lost his wife.

In addition to the rendering of the environment, the rain, trees, sky, and even the duration and rhythm of the coffin lowering slowly, everything has been adjusted in the most meticulous way.

It even cheated and used a neural modem to transmit virtual emotions to players.

Under the combined effect of all these, all players can't help but bring into the identity of John Wick, indulge in it, and even like all the NPCs attending the funeral, they have real sadness and empathy.

"Lin You...something is wrong!"

Yelang, who had been silent for a long time, was a little big, and finally got a space to speak, and he opened his mouth to attack personally.

At the same time, countless players had similar problems:

"Has Lin You suffered any psychological trauma?"

"Lin You's mental state is definitely a bit unhealthy!"

"Either he has been traumatized, or he wants to take revenge on the society. Lin You must account for at least one of them! Or both!"

These words are the most polite of them all.

Many players not only talked about it, but also opened the panel and posted frantically on Lingxi and game forums:

"What's wrong with Lin You? I didn't talk about "The League of Green Hats" earlier, but I thought he knew his mistake and corrected it in "Quick Chase", and ended up killing his wife right away? Is there something wrong with you?"

"Why is Lin You so hostile towards a man with a wife? Does the wife cheat or die? Is this the resentment of a single dog?"

"Do you think it's possible? I mean it's possible. Lin You's mentality has become abnormal since he was pacified by Wanglong and violently attacked by netizens. He has only one purpose in making games, which is to take revenge on society! Indiscriminate counterattack against all players ?”

"When you say that, it suddenly makes sense! So, this is really Lin You's fault?"

"Reasonable fart! Watch "Guangyu", watch "Paradise"! How could it be revenge on society?"

"So we can only endure?"

"No! This is obviously NetDragon's fault!"

"Damn it, go to Net Dragon!"

...

Chongwanglong, of course, is a joke.

But the complaints against Lin You have already been accumulated by the players, so don't expect to hear any good things at this time.

Even Super Tomato, who claims to be a "die-hard fan of Yunmeng" and "has a very close personal relationship with Lin You", has no way to excuse him, so he can only laugh awkwardly and skip this one.

According to the guidance of the task, chat with Marcus, who is on the sidelines and claims to be an "old friend", and accept a few words of comfort.

By the way, I learned that Helen died of illness.

There are no accidents, no conflicts, and no goals to avenge.

That is, it was ordinary, but helplessly died of illness.

Not even venting.

He then drove home to pick up a "package".

Only Ah Yi didn't feel angry at all, and even criticized Lin You's direction despite the unanimous voice in the live broadcast room, and praised: "As expected of Lin You, I finally know why he is so powerful!"

The barrage of accusations in the live broadcast paused, and a lot of question marks floated by in an instant.

However, Ah Yi sighed with admiration: "There is no woman in my heart, so I am a god of nature!"

"We are men who want to become kings of killers, so of course we can't be distracted by women!"

Such a speech against the sky naturally aroused a fierce reaction from the audience in the live broadcast room:

"???"

"Are you serious?"

"God's angle!"

"I don't think it's just Lin You who is abnormal, but you, the anchor, are also abnormal!"

"God is a god of nature, so you plan not to get close to women?"

A Yi immediately retorted: "I just don't need to be caught by my wife. Women still need it. Isn't there a flower-tone bubble bath here?"

""A Yi: I Don't Need a Wife""

"Screen recorded!"

"Ayi, this is the video that will be shown at your wedding!"

A Yi quickly denied: "I mean in the game! In the game! In reality, you still have to ask for a wife..."

...

Xiao Meng looked at the trend of public opinion on the Internet, and looked at Lin You worriedly.

Lin You scratched his chin boredly.

This is something that was expected before the game went live.

Otherwise, John Wick will not be convincing if he pursues revenge all the way!

After going through such a funeral now, we can better empathize with the puppy with the sadness and nostalgia.

Only in this way can the flame of revenge be truly ignited after the puppy also suffered misfortune.

At that time, it will not only be the anger of John Wick's revenge that will be ignited.

It will also be—

Players' fire of vengeance!
