Game production: I created Mihoyo

So the day after"Mini World" disappeared, the second beta test of"Minecraft" also ended.

For the majority of players, it was quite sudden.

The day before yesterday, the two games were still competing, but today, neither of them could be played, so many players went to the Mihoyo official website to complain.

But after the official issued a message that"the official version will be officially launched on November 1st", the players changed their tune 180 degrees

"The person who used the phone just now was my younger brother, and I slapped him in the face"

"Protect my best Mihoyo!"

"Aren’t you curious about how Minecraft will be priced?"

This player's words attracted widespread attention.

Many players responded.

Yes, how will Minecraft be priced?

"To be honest, it's better to buy it out."

"It is true that the gameplay of"Minecraft" is not suitable for in-app purchases"

"I support buyouts because I hope it won’t be too expensive."

Netizens all support the buyout method for Minecraft, which is a strange sight in China, which is used to the free + in-app purchase environment.

But it is an indisputable fact that buyouts definitely don’t make as much money as free + in-app purchases.

After all, free is the most expensive.

"It is impossible to buy out the game."

Xu Shuo has no plans to buy out the mobile version of Minecraft, because students make up the majority of the user group, and how many of these players can actually pay to buy the game?

Students have unlimited creativity, and Minecraft is very suitable for them to play. He doesn't want the buyout money to become a threshold that keeps those players out.

So it has to be free + in-app purchases.

Of course, it won't be the kind of in-app purchases in Mini World. Xu Shuo still remembers his shock when he saw the in-app purchase plan. That's not something a normal person could come up with. The in-app purchases that Xu Shuo wants to add to Minecraft are not simple in-app purchases.

Instead, it is an in-app purchase model that is combined with new features to allow players to trade with each other and make money as a middleman.

However, this feature is still under development and will not be added until the next version.

The currently empty mall must add a product.

At this time, he remembered the horror story about Minecraft that people talked about in his previous life.

**

Two days passed in a flash, and it was November 1st in the blink of an eye.

Mihoyo launched the game at 12 o'clock, and everyone rushed into the CCERO platform and found that"Minecraft" could be downloaded for free.

Seeing the word"free", everyone's heart sank.

After all, there was the example of"Mini World" before, and they were worried that"Minecraft" would also split the game in the same way.

However, when they actually entered the game, they were dumbfounded.

《All modes of Minecraft are still free to play. The only change is that players need to pay to create a server, but the price is not expensive. A 10-person server costs 18 RMB per month, and a 20-person server costs 36 RMB per month.

In the newly added mall in the game, there is currently only one product.

A character skin named [Him] costs 6 RMB.

The character looks similar to the player character, but his eyes are completely white and seem to have a glowing effect, and he also has a beard.

【Character introduction: He is a ghost, maybe Notch's dead brother or a miner who died in a world. He will appear in any world, please keep your distance from him. 】

This conscientious charging method shocked everyone

"Where is China's conscience? Mi is fooling around in the Magic City!"

"The wall of Dashuo's house is going to be demolished again."

"《"Mini World" Look how conscientious they are. They are already dead, so it's okay." Some good-hearted players even launched a campaign to"protect our conscientious manufacturer Mihoyo", calling on everyone to buy the only product in the store.

……

"Brother Shuo, here are the statistics after one hour of going online: One hour after going online: 9.8 points! 2 million downloads! No. 1 on the free list, No. 1 on the best-selling list."The operation girl is reporting the data

""Yes, very good." Xu Shuo nodded.

The data was so good that it seemed unreal, but it made sense when I thought about it being Minecraft.

"Hey, wait a minute." Xu Shuo's expression at this time was like a blind student who discovered a bright spot."You said that"Minecraft" is still the best-selling list?"

The operation girl nodded in affirmation. Xu Shuo couldn't believe it and took another look at the CCERO ranking on the computer. It was really the best-selling list.

Xu Shuo: ???

This is not right. There is only one 6RMB product in the mall plus the server fee. With these two charging points, it can be ranked first in the best-selling list. What are the other games on the list for?

"Send me a copy of the transaction data."

After a while, Xu Shuo saw that the purchase rate of [Him] skin by players was as high as 90%, which means that 1.8 million of the 2 million players spent 6 RMB to buy the skin.

Xu Shuo took a breath of cold air. This [Him] was just an Easter egg skin made to fill the mall.

Now, everyone has him in their world.
