Live Action Opens Up and Gets Blocked, Backhandedly Rectifying the Gaming Industry

Can a game that can be enjoyed by both a housewife and a child be a game for ordinary people?

The answer is self-evident.

And it seems that Liu Yue didn't play for so long just to cooperate with his so-called "work", he really likes this game!

For example, I have been playing the game for nearly two hours now.

The progress has been from the grassland level at night to the swimming pool level during the day.

At the beginning, I would discuss a few words with him, but now, I am so absorbed in the game that I didn't notice him retreating behind me.

If this continues, I won’t even think about working today.

"Honey, why don't you just stop here today? I'll work for a while."

"Ah?" Liu Yue looked reluctant to leave. He wanted to say something back, but his eyes couldn't leave the screen.

After finishing this level, he turned back and asked: "Then can you help me download it to my mobile phone? This mobile phone also has it."

Qu Jijun felt a little blocked in his heart and asked glumly: "Don't you want to play Leisure Farm? That game is not bad either."

"That's not fun. Lingling doesn't play it, so what kind of game is it? This one is so interesting."

Really, a simple and unpretentious review.

Qu Jijun could only sigh and nodded.

Isn't it just capitalizing on the enemy? Anyway, even if Lin Mo becomes the richest man, he will still have two games.

Bar?

The next day.

I arrived at the company early, and I clearly felt that the atmosphere today was much more relaxed than before.

Even the boss Zhou Wei has a lot of smiles on his face.

He even gave a speech on a whim, with unspeakable joy and pride in his words, and made various promises to the employees.

Listening to that, it's as if the war with Origin Platform has been won.

Although it was a painting, everyone was very happy to hear it. The most powerful rival was the first-party game. Now that the first-party game is tepid, isn't it worth being happy?

Qu Jijun hesitated for a long time, but decided to remind the company leaders to say what he was thinking.

While the word-of-mouth effect of Plants vs. Zombies has not yet risen, we will conduct in-depth cooperation with the developers of Leisure Farm, use the advantages of the game box itself, and win through publicity.

Then give the green light to some game types that are also tower defense, and rely on the number of similar games to crush them.

only.

"Hahahaha, do children and housewives know what a good game is? How many copies can these people buy? Can we rely on these people to make a game popular?"

"Really? I think this game is quite threatening."

"A work with a BGN score of 8.0 is not worthy of such attention. Go ahead and go ahead, there is no need to report it to Mr. Zhou."

Qu Jijun was helpless. Don’t you know why BGN gave me such a low score? Is this a game quality issue?

Okay, it’s not that I don’t report it, it’s that you don’t take it seriously.

The company spent the entire morning in such a relaxed and enjoyable manner.

During lunch break.

Several male colleagues had dinner and found a corner to smoke together. The topic naturally turned to family.

One said that the child was too naughty, another said that the child started fighting with other children, another said that the mother-in-law asked for too many gifts, and the other said that the wife wanted to buy another bag.

Qu Jijun lit the cigarette and took a puff, then complained: "I envy you. My daughter doesn't like to go out to play, nor is she naughty. She just likes to play games. I'm worried to death."

"What are you afraid of? Children who love to play games are smart, are destined to make a fortune, and will be healthy and smooth throughout their lives."

"Haha, Brother Jun, my child is going to follow in your footsteps."

"Chasing me will be troublesome." Qu Jijun complained, "The key is that the little guy is obsessed with Plants vs. Zombies. Hey, I didn't expect that my daughter would actually become an enemy."

An older colleague was stunned and said with a smile: "What a coincidence? My son also loves to play, but my son is ten years old and his teammates recommended him when he was playing football."

"So there are people around you who play Plants vs. Zombies?" A young man touched his nose in embarrassment, "My girlfriend has also been playing recently."

"My 50-year-old wife actually loves to play, but she is reluctant to buy it and only played the trial level."

After saying this, several people looked at each other, and there was silence for a while.

It's normal for a few family members and friends to like Plants vs. Zombies, but it's not normal if so many people around you like to play it.

Perhaps it is because these people are practitioners in the game industry, and there is survivorship bias due to various reasons.

But it’s a bit too outrageous, right?

Just a few words, the game covers various groups including five-year-old children, primary school students, adult women in their thirties, and housewives in their fifties.

Everyone who works at Game Box knows how rare this situation is.

Games are commodities and have corresponding consumer groups.

AAA masterpieces and casual puzzles, basketball players and football players, mobile gamers and console players, these groups are not without crossover, but not much.

If this happens, it either means that the game is well publicized and many people are curious to give it a try.

Or it means that its quality is amazing, and everyone can enjoy the fun it brings regardless of age, gender, or identity.

Thinking of this, everyone's faces turned ugly.

Things seem to be different from what I thought.

Qu Jijun looked around and asked, "Have you ever played Plants vs. Zombies? Tell me honestly."

It took five seconds for this question to come out of my mouth before a young man weakly raised his hand.

"I play. In fact, I recommended my girlfriend to play Plants vs. Zombies. You can't tell anyone."

Everyone:.

I didn’t expect that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be a young boy, right?

Then, everyone thought of the high-spirited Zhou Wei.

Although he didn't open the champagne this time, he still happily thought that the game box would win this battle, right?

Little did he know that disaster was approaching.

In the next day or two, this uneasy mood and strange atmosphere continued to spread within the company.

It can be said that Plants vs. Zombies can be seen and played everywhere except in game malls such as Game Box and Tianyun Game Platform.

So this is the most common question that employees as practitioners hear these days.

"Brother, doesn't your company's platform have Plants vs. Zombies?"

"Honey/Dear, where can I play this game? There doesn't seem to be a game box?"

"Your little nephew wants to play Plants vs. Zombies. Where can he play it?"

You can say that the game is very popular, but the online discussion is only average, although there are gradually signs of popularity.

You said the game is not very popular. Many people are asking where they can play it.

Game Box and all Naughty Cat products cannot coexist. It stands to reason that there are many people playing the game, and the number of users should continue to change.

However, the number of players has not fluctuated much.

The number of players in the game box is decreasing slightly every day, but it is not much and it is within the tolerable range.

The answer is not difficult to guess. Naughty Cat has spread its influence to places they cannot see, that is, the group of non-game players.
