Number One Game Designer

It's not just Fang Xi who thinks it's worth the fare.

At this time, the tens of thousands of viewers in Afeng's live broadcast room also thought it was very cool, and the barrage in the live broadcast room made Afeng's own webpage freeze for a while.

Because the mechanism Fang Xi specially set up directly caused the audience in the live broadcast room to argue with each other:

"What kind of mentally handicapped mechanism is this! Why do I have to destroy the save file I worked so hard for!"

"Because the anchor himself accepted the help!"

"And according to the anchor's own skills, it is very difficult to clear the level independently. Since you have received help, you should also help others."

"But it's still hard for me to accept that the save file I've worked hard for a week just disappeared."

"So this option gives you the chance to decline."

"Why do you refuse? Why don't you think about how many people passed this help on before you?"

"But wouldn't this constitute a kind of moral kidnapping?"

"So this will not be enforced..."

The barrage was disturbing, but Afeng had already made his own decision.

Ma Liu chose to continue this inheritance, watching his character gradually become transparent, but what was more dazzling than this was seeing the name on the head of his translucent character: Chasing the Wind Boy.

What's the matter with the inexplicable feeling of a little shame? A Feng shook his head and decided not to care about it anymore, but at this time a message popped up on the screen, and the sender was "Fang Xi".

Click to receive, the content of the letter is also very simple:

"If it helps you, then I'm very happy."

I'm happy if it helps you. Simple words, but said a simple truth, that is to help others, even in games.

After taking the screenshot as a souvenir, Afeng saw that the page was refreshed again on the monitor, but this time it was refreshed with a detailed explanation of the mechanism: after accepting the help of another player, the player can add it as his friend with one click; The Assassin of Light incarnation of the player who chooses to dedicate himself can only help one player, and then it will dissipate. At the same time, the player who incarnates as the Assassin of Light also has the right to leave a message.

A new window popped up on the screen, displaying the message window. Afeng thought about it and manipulated it on the live broadcast software to get a mosaic to block this part, then began to edit the message, and explained to the barrage:

"Old buddies, understand, I, Afeng, are naturally thin-skinned..." This sentence only received a uniform "cut".

After many things were settled, Ah Feng suddenly had a feeling of taking care of the funeral for his character. This feeling was a bit complicated, such as reluctance, pride, expectation, etc., which were too complicated to express.

"Confirmation of player's will..."

"The message system is complete..."

"Archive travel begins..."

"0%, 1%, 2%, 3%...100%"

"The archive has already started to travel. Thank you for your contribution to the world of assassins. I wish you all the best in the future game world."

In the end, Afeng watched himself return to the initial interface of the assassin, the archive interface was empty, and only the official statistics of the trophy reminded him that this was not a dream.

"What a wonderful journey." A Feng shook his head and sighed.

At the moment when Ah Feng shook his head and sighed, a discussion was quietly emerging on the Internet, on Weibo, on Twitter, and in the game community of the Honghu platform.

The editors of the game media are probably the most excited about the mechanism that Hongyi buried in the end of Assassin. For them, news that can mobilize players' enthusiasm for discussion is good news.

In this matter, the assassin is like this: the opening plot and action are amazing, until now the ending has made players discuss the sky:

Do you want to delete your files and become an Assassin of Light?

Is this official behavior a moral kidnapping?

Fang Xi instructed the official to not pay attention to this matter, because in the final analysis, there are not many players who have cleared the level now, and after waiting for players to play for a long time,

Some players pursue multi-week playoffs or something, and the value of archives decreases, so players can treat this system more fairly. At that time, there will naturally be a proper evaluation of Hongyi's system.

One thing that made Liu Haixiao, director of operations, blossom: when there was discussion on the Internet about the Assassin’s archive travel mechanism, Hongyi’s Assassin’s daily sales increased by 40%, and now Hongyi’s Assassin’s sales have climbed to 34 million It has set a record for the sales of 3A masterpieces on PC games.

And it can be expected that this record will become more and more exaggerated. For example, Assassin will also be released on the old consoles released in early September.

For Hong Yi and Lao Ren who are currently in the honeymoon period of cooperation, September is a very important time.

Tokyo is still bustling, but when it comes to Japan's cultural center, Kyoto, which is west of Tokyo, is undoubtedly more praised.

As the former capital of old Japan, this is the cultural center of the four islands of Japan, where the headquarters of many companies such as comics, film and television, games, etc. are located here, including Laoren.

When Fang Xi came to Japan to talk about cooperation with Lao Ren, he went to the Tokyo branch of Lao Ren, but he was not interested in the Kyoto branch, because it was completed relatively early, and many outside players are yearning for the old Ren. The headquarters of the company is just a boxy iron box in the suburbs of Kyoto.

The building of the headquarters has the biggest characteristic in Japan: that is, it has no characteristics. The four-square headquarters, with the same length and width, and an eight-story, non-descript independent office building is the headquarters of Lao Ren. At this time, Satoshi Kimishima is waiting for his first trial after joining Lao Ren.

Although the board of directors didn't say it clearly, Kimishima Satoshi himself knew that if the Nintendo Change didn't sell well this time, then his time in the old company would also enter the countdown.

Only with the success of this generation of home computers, can I make Lao Ren truly obey my command.

Although in the past year, Hongyi's profit margin has far surpassed that of Lao Ren, but it is more because of the fact that Lao Ren wants to sell mainframes. They have countless exclusive stores, offices and branches all over the world. As far as Fang Xi knows, at the end of last year, there were more than 2,000 employees in Nintendo's headquarters. If you count the specialty stores all over the world, Nintendo's total employees exceeded 6,000.

Moreover, Nintendo also has its own independent distribution channel, logistics, production, publicity and distribution, etc. are all done by the old man himself. Therefore, although the profit margin is not as good as that of Hongyi, the size of Laoren is still many times larger than that of Hongyi. The channels, stores, and warehouses that Laoren owns in the real world are also invisible assets.

In the office of the Kyoto headquarters, the secretary pushed the door in and handed the form to Satoshi Kimishima:

"President, as of yesterday, among the orders placed by all cooperatives in Asia, home machines have been fully installed."

Satoshi Kimijima nodded. In the past week, the old man has entered a state of rapid operation, transporting all the home machines that have been produced to various parts of the world, and then go on sale at the same time.

Live or die depends on the sales on the first day!
