Chapter 494: A game without depth

Suddenly, Richard Garrett's face turned extremely red.

He looked at the reporter who asked him this question with extremely angry eyes. Looking at the reporter's appearance, he felt a little familiar. He thought about it silently in the mainland for a while before he remembered that this seemed to be the last time he The reporter from "Game" whom I met.

Originally, Richard Garrett thought that if this reporter was just a low-level publication reporter, he could ask the other party to ban the publication of things about the Verizon game. He could still do this, regardless of it. If it is "game", a publication that accounts for 70% of the entire North American game readership market,

All he could do was knock out his teeth and swallow blood.

After the "Game" reporter asked this question, the people around him stopped talking and were waiting for his answer. Obviously, these people were all interested in this question. Very interested, of course, the greater possibility is that they may have discussed the questions they want to ask before they come.

The first question was asked so disrespectfully, and the subsequent questions will naturally not be merciful either.

Richard Garrett's mood, which had improved a bit, suddenly became gloomy. He stared at the reporter of "Game" with a slumped face, regarding the issue of ownership of this magazine. , although there are many speculations from the outside world, there is a consensus in the industry.

"Game" magazine is indeed not a property of Mars Entertainment, but the owner of the company that controls this magazine happens to be Jester Lee.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Richard Garrett simply ignored it and sneered disdainfully.

Then in a dismissive tone, he expressed his views on "Guardian of Rune Stones": "Reporter, I personally don't understand why you asked this question. In your eyes, a Can the quality of a game be judged only by how many floppy disks it sells?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the reporters surrounding him with the same disdainful look he had before, then stretched out his hand to push forward, forcing his way out.

However, the reaction of these reporters was also very fast. They quickly surrounded him again in three steps and two steps at a time.

And Richard Garrett was almost haunted when he saw these reporters, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He simply stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of these reporters: "In this way, I can promise to answer three questions for you. After answering the three questions, I leave, and you'd better not stop me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for suing you.”

The reporters present looked at each other, and then nodded in acquiescence.

It was the reporter from "Game" magazine who spoke before. He took a step forward and agreed to Richard Garrett's request.

In fact, the first question is a trap, no matter how Richard Garrett answers it. These reporters, who have been discussing for a long time in advance and want to dig out an eye-catching news, can continue to ask questions, and each question will be more embarrassing than the last.

For example. If anything, Richard Garrett's answer this time just fell into a prepared trap.

The reporter from "Game" magazine smiled and continued to ask the second question.

"Then Mr. Richard Garrett. Can I interpret your answer as saying that you think "Runestone Guardian" is a bad game, and your work is a good game, but the players Are you blind and ignorant?"

This question is really insidious.

Richard Garrett cursed secretly in his heart. He took another look at this reporter who was not very old, probably less than thirty years old. He had no other ability to misinterpret the interviewer's answers. There is a lot of skill in taking things out of context.

However, in fact, in Richard Garrett's eyes, what this reporter said was really in line with his wishes.

If it weren't for the following sentence, which forcibly described the players as blind and ignorant, Richard Garrett, who is now in a rage, might have admitted it. He just wanted to clearly show that it was against "Runestone Guardian" 》Disgusting with this game.

Of course, the sales of this game are very high, no matter what promotion methods Jester or Mars Entertainment use.

Therefore, he can't use sales volume to blackmail him.

Therefore, he thought of a very subjective question, is a game with high sales volume a good game? This was almost a rogue answer, but no one refuted it.

However, Richard Garrett also knows that there is no problem for him to hack "Runestone Guardian". This can be explained as a personal grudge, but this limit can never be extended to the players who purchased it, because the players are in very bad moods. Fragile, some players who have nothing to do with it may actually have a bad impression of themselves or their company's games after seeing such reports.

This will cause potential buyers to disappear, or existing buyers to give up.

"I definitely didn't mean that by you."

These thoughts quickly went through Richard Garrett's mind, and the total time spent was less than 0.5 seconds. He immediately said something decisively, and then he continued to add : "Please don't misinterpret my answer, otherwise, I will hold you accountable."

The aggressive answer given by the reporter from "Game" was originally intended to make Richard Garrett angry. Only those who are angry will become more and more out of control. Angry people gradually forget the concept of calm thinking.

So as to say something that would not be said directly in normal times.

Of course, irritating the other side, even if you don't say what the reporters want to hear, is a good thing.

Therefore, the "Game" reporter didn't take it seriously after hearing Richard Garrett's defense. He just shrugged, then smiled casually, and asked the second question.

"Oh, in that case, let's not talk about players, let's talk about games. In your opinion, what kind of game is "Guardian of Rune Stones"?" After finishing speaking, the reporter still looked at it with a smile. For Richard Garrett, it seems that his problem is harmless to both humans and animals.

"hehe."

After hearing this question, Richard Garrett was about to speak, but he seemed to suddenly think of something. His face changed, and he looked uncertain. Then he squinted his eyes and looked at him confidently and seriously again. He saw the reporter from "Game" magazine in front of him and laughed contemptuously.

"I almost got trapped by you again."

He said lightly, then raised the corners of his mouth, and his sarcastic smile became even stronger.

"But it doesn't matter. I don't like to be secretive. I always say whatever comes to my mind. For example, if you ask me this question, I can answer you very clearly. In "Guardian of Rune Stones" the day before yesterday, "On the day the game was released, I asked someone to buy a copy for me, and I played it from beginning to end, which took about a few hours."

"I have to admit that Jester has a very good idea of ​​what kind of games will be liked by players when it comes to game production. I can't help myself. However, the only difference between him and me is that maybe It's just that he's making the game as a commodity, and I'm not."

"what is that?"

The reporter from "Game" couldn't help but follow Richard Garrett's tone and asked.

"Is this the third question?" Richard Garrett also responded with a quick raindrop, which made it difficult for the reporter of "Game" to decide, although for him now, Richard. If you dig into Garrett's previous answers carefully, you can form a good article with a specific direction.

However, there is a difference between asking the other party to say something and expressing it out of context.

However, seeing that Richard Garrett seemed to have calmed down again, the reporter was a little undecided as to whether the third question was of any use. Therefore, he was also confused and simply said: : "Of course, this is the third question."

After saying that, he squinted his eyes and looked at Richard Garrett seriously again.

But Richard Garrett didn't take it seriously. He just looked at the "Game" reporter with eyes that seemed to see through everything, and then continued to answer in a calm tone: "I know you want to If I don't want to say something, you can't possibly tempt me to say it. However, I don't like to make things difficult for others. Of course, I don't like hypocrisy either. I guess I say I'm very You wouldn’t believe it even if you like “Guardian of Rune Stones” or something like that.”

As he spoke, Richard Garrett paused for a moment.

"So, I will tell the truth and make it easy for you to write something that can catch readers' attention. For example, the question you asked before."

Speaking of this, the young reporter from "Game" magazine couldn't help but pricked up his ears.

"I actually said it very tactfully before. I originally wanted to save some face for this game, but since you asked so aggressively, don't blame me for telling the truth. In my opinion, as a game that only entertains people, As a game product, this game is qualified.”

"However, as an influential producer in the gaming industry, I feel very sad to have produced such a game without any depth." (To be continued...)
