Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

After the promotional video, there is a demo video.

Compared with the promotional video, the demo video is much simpler. Yan Qi controls the protagonist and uses four methods of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism to destroy the monsters in a small village on the border.

Before entering the village, he used Taoist medicine and talisman to impose various buffs on himself, and then set up an array to attract all the monsters nearby, relying on rich pre-war preparations to easily defeat a large number of monsters.

But neither the formation nor the talisman state could last for too long, and more demons were still emerging in a steady stream.

The protagonist takes down the spear from behind, and directly fights with the monsters by military means, and from time to time he shoots bows and arrows, the monsters in the middle and far away.

If the previous Taoist skills were more focused on preliminary preparations, then it has become an action game that requires reaction and manipulation. The protagonist uses all the weapons he can get to fight against the monsters, and at the same time kills to the core area of ​​the village.

Immediately afterwards, the protagonist encounters more and more powerful monsters. Some monsters wrapped in layers of resentment will not be injured by ordinary swords. So the Buddha's light on the protagonist's body is prosperous, and his skin becomes pale gold. The blazing Buddha's light makes those The dark devilish energy quickly melts like an ice cube meets a scorching sun.

Finally, facing a powerful evil spirit, the protagonist activates the Confucian character, and sees that the weakness of the evil spirit is the scarlet sharp horns on the head and back. After dodge the attack of the evil spirit, a sword will control the evil spirit. Cut off the sharp horns!

Immediately afterwards, some other scenes appeared, such as a battlefield with corpses all over the field, a temple burning with flames, a border city that resisted to the death, Huangquan Road in the two realms of Yin and Yang, and so on.

It's just that these scenes just flashed past, and did not spend as much space as before to describe, just made a scene display.

This demo video is a real battle in the game. The four combat methods of Taoism, Buddhism, Art of War, and Confucianism, including the use of various weapons, various moves and actions, are fully demonstrated.

As a senior action player, Yan Qi played several times before he found the most satisfactory result.

However, he did not show all the most exciting content in the game. He just chose some moves that can highlight the characteristics of the four genres. After all, a deeper battle system, more battle scenes and monsters, and more complex game plots. You also need to wait for the game to be released for players to experience it on their own.

The combination of the promotional video and the demo video has been able to give players a general understanding of the content of the game "Milky Way". Players' feedback now can basically speculate on the situation after the game is released.

Of course, the premise is that the development is successfully completed, and all the content you want to do is made, and you cannot use a semi-finished product to fool the players.

"There is still a clear difference from the benchmarks of action games like "Returning to the Shore" and "Eternal Fallen Reincarnation". It has made its own characteristics, and I don't know if the players will like this approach." Yan Qi was a little bit nervous.

He also opened this promotional video on the website of Elli Island, but after all, the video has just been released, so there is not much popularity yet.

Yan Qi didn't care either. He was going to continue to play the game's DEMO, look for bugs, and come back later.

This time, he and Chaolu Game Platform didn't invest too much resources to publicize, but just made a few basic recommendation columns, because he wanted to see the real feedback from the players.

If players find the video of "Militia" and like it very much, it will naturally spread quickly and cause a huge enthusiasm, then it proves that the game of "Militia" is on the right path.

Now that a lot of resources are invested in publicity, the real heat and the false heat may be mixed, so it is difficult to know the real heat of "Milky", and it is naturally not easy to find its problems.

After another hour, Yan Qi submitted two bugs.

No way, today is the weekend, the efficiency of finding bugs is too low.

Yan Qi didn't care too much, and continued to look at the comment section of the "Military" video.

"It stands to reason that there should be some heat, after all, I bought some basic recommendation fields, and they were posted using the official account of the Chaolu game platform. There will always be some natural traffic, right?"

"Huh? There is traffic, but it feels a bit wrong."

"Where is there so much heat?"

Seeing the heat and discussion of this video, Yan Qi was shocked.

In just over an hour after its release, the video of "Xiao Li" has been ranked first on the game channel's list, and according to this trend, it is estimated that it is only a matter of time before it hits the homepage!

Not only that, Yan Qi discovered that the keyword #黍离# has also been searched on the Ailidao website and Weibo!

This is outrageous!

And he observed carefully and found that the keyword #黍离# in the hot search on Weibo seems to have been bought...

Because this keyword hangs in the fifth place on the hot search list, and this position was basically occupied by some stars before.

What's more, with the current popularity of "Militia", it is not at the same level as the hot search. Passersby didn't know this, but Yan Qi knew it well.

"What's the situation? Chaolu game platform bought me a hot search by the way?"

"No, they didn't notify me of this? Besides, they don't even go to work on weekends!"

Yan Qi is simply puzzling.

He originally wanted to see the natural heat of "Military" and determine the players' first impression of the game, but the plan was immediately disrupted!

Yan Qi hurriedly clicked to open the comment area and various forums.

"Another domestically produced 3A masterpiece is about to come out?"

"This scene, this action, this battle system is okay! I really want to play, when will it be released?"

"Do you want to be exclusive on the Chaolu game platform? Amazing! Chaolu game platform finally has an exclusive 3A masterpiece! Congratulations!"

"I said that this kind of cultural heritage can only be grasped by domestic game producers. The Chinese style games made by those foreign game companies are simply vain and unreliable at all!"

"I heard that this game seems to be under development, but it is relatively short of development funds. This time I should also want to use this video to raise money."

"That’s right, this team used to do mobile games before, and it’s definitely not enough funds to make a 3A masterpiece of this size! Where is the entrance to crowdfunding or pre-sale? I’ll pre-order a copy to help the development of domestic games. A meager power!"

"It seems that there is no pre-order. Maybe the producer doesn't want to take the money from the players."

"So there is no company investment in such a good project?"

"Oh, you don't know the urgency of these domestic investment companies. Stand-alone games are a sinkhole for them. Who will invest? Who will let their money go?"

"Hey, there seem to be several investment companies that say they are willing to invest in this game?"

"Aren't these a few of the'Anti-Tengda Alliance"? Fuck, what about pretending to be a chicken feather, is that an investment for "Military"? Obviously it was invested for the disgusting Tenda! I just don't believe these people are so kind!"

"That is, I hope that the "Military" team will not take this money...If you are really short of money, you can ask the players to pre-order. With the money of this kind of company, there will be absolutely no peace in the future!"

"These companies have said that they will not interfere with the normal development of the project "Militia". And I feel that this matter is irrelevant. If "Militia" fails to achieve the most perfect effect due to lack of funds, This is definitely a loss and regret. If the investment of these companies can give us an excellent domestic game, why not do it?"

It has to be said that the popularity of "Military" has indeed risen too fast. From the Elli Island website to the hot search, and then to the major game forums, it is almost at a speed that Yan Qi did not expect, and it has set off a discussion among players. upsurge.

It's just that this kind of discussion is a bit weird in Yan Qi's view, as if something is wrong.

Why... the focus of everyone's discussion seems to be on "investment"?

Why is everyone presupposing that the "Military" project is very short of money?

It stands to reason that after a normal game player sees the promotional video and the demo video, the first reaction should be to discuss the game's style, combat system, plot, story background, etc. By the way, it means that as soon as the game is released, it will be bought immediately.

They generally don’t particularly care about whether the game developer’s funds are sufficient.

This is also normal, why do players care about this? It is not a shareholder of the developer. As long as the game is fun, it is enough for players to spend money happily.

What's more, there is no shortage of money for the "Military" project!

Yan Qi wondered, where did the news of the lack of money come from? There are still so many people discussing?

Could it be that…

Yan Qi put together all the recent events and suddenly realized where the problem was.

The Anti-Tengda Alliance is wooing companies to join. As far as Yan Qi knows, some game platforms have already been pulled in.

Two days ago, Nie Yunsheng came to Jingzhou in person to invest in Yan Qi, but Yan Qi declined.

And after the video of "Militia" was released, there was suddenly a lot of heat on the Internet. Two other investment companies in the Anti-Tengda Alliance expressed their willingness to provide investment for "Militia"...

It was too coincidental and coherent that these things happened, and Yan Qi was not stupid, so he naturally thought of it.

Obviously, the anti-Tengda alliance should have never thought about how to cover up. After all, their purpose is to incitement public opinion and let Yan Qi accept investment.

"Good fellow, before I asked my grandpa to tell my grandma to find investment, no one was willing to invest. Now I don't want it, so I even came to the door and forced to give me the money?"

"It's outrageous!"

If you count on these investment companies, then the project "Silver" will never be born, let alone reach the current level.

But many things are so contradictory. These investment companies are all owners who don't see rabbits or scatter eagles. It is impossible to give charcoal in the snow. The icing on the cake is more urgent.

Yan Qi is also dumbfounded. On the one hand, the attitude of these investment companies has changed too much before and after, and the face is too ugly; on the other hand, because the project "Military" is really not short of money!

Obviously, I have already told Nie Yunsheng so clearly, so why don't you believe it?

"Forget it, let's send another announcement to clarify it."

"How many times do I have to say before you can believe that I am really not short of money?"
