Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

In the past ten minutes or so, Zhuyou Xing confirmed that it wasn't just one day's games that had such serious unevenness. In the recent period of time, the average quality of independent games on the PC Battle.net platform was not very high.

That's right, an indie game.

That is to say, it is independently developed by a small number of people and released independently on the Battle.net platform. There are no publishers and intermediaries in the middle, and it is completely dependent on the recommendation of Youxing Electronic Entertainment to obtain more resources and benefits.

In the past, Zhuyouxing's support for independent games was quite strong, and it has always strongly recommended various independent games to go online.

Among them, the games produced by Zhu Youxing's three big disciples are the first. The average quality of their games is the benchmark of many independent games, and they also earn a lot of money because of this, becoming a role model in many people's minds.

Zhu Youxing thinks that in this way, it should be able to circulate positively,

But the facts don't seem to be developing according to the development trajectory he expected.

"Boss, I'm really sorry, it's all my fault."

Not long after, Bell Ryder's phone call came back.

At this moment, his tone is very low, like a child who has made a mistake.

Zhu Youxing didn't say much, but asked: "I want to know the specific reason, I don't need you to apologize directly, let me determine if it's your fault."

"Uh... well, boss, this matter is actually related to a previous department meeting of mine, so I said it was my responsibility."

"Tell me why!"

"It's like this. At the departmental meeting of the Battle.net platform, I and several other directors in charge of different platforms made the next goal plan. The goal plan I gave for other game console platforms was to increase the game's resources. Those higher-quality games are tilted in resources to increase revenue."

"And then?" Zhu Youxing asked.

"The benefits of the game console platform itself are very good, so it is no problem for them to follow my target plan, but the director in charge of the PC Battle.net platform... I gave him another goal, which is to absorb as much as possible Add more games to the PC Battle.net platform, as many as possible, and now the players on the PC Battle.net platform like to hoard games according to our survey, which is different from other game platforms.”

When Zhu Youxing heard this, he recalled his past.

When he was playing on the STEAM platform, he still played every game he bought with sincerity, every time he was very attentive, and he would at least clear every game.

But when Zhu Youxing came into contact with the big game discount event for the first time, he suddenly found that many of the high-quality games he liked very much could be bought at a very low price. When it comes time to buy at least seven or eight games, as many as dozens of games.

With so many games, how could it be possible to finish them all?

Most of them are Zhu Youxing who heard the name of the game, and then bought it and put it in the inventory, but they may hardly open it to play.

There are not a few people who have the same behavior as Zhu Youxing. ''

Later, players also ridiculed that steam itself is no longer a gaming platform.

Steam itself has become a game, its name is the game collection simulator.

There is also a very popular stalk on the Internet: I spent money to buy all the games, why should I spend time playing?

It seems that as long as you buy the game, it doesn't matter whether you play it or not.

This is actually not a very good thing.

Zhu Youxing's expression changed a bit. In the eyes of Bell Ryder who was on a video call, Zhu Youxing was obviously angry because of this incident.

He had no idea that Zhu Youxing was still thinking about things from his previous life.

"I'm very sorry to the boss. It is precisely because I gave such a wrong goal that the head of this department began to think that blindly increasing the number of games is a good thing."

"How many players bought these games?"

"What?" Belred was taken aback.

"I mean how many players bought these make-up games."

"This... this number is not a minority."

"Then how many players have not played after playing the game?"

"ah?"

Zhu Youxing said, "Didn't you investigate this?"

"Investigated, of course investigated, the boss wait a moment."

Two seconds later, Bell Ryder resumed: "Ninety-nine percent of the players who bought these games never activated them at all."

Sure enough, it was pretty much the same as I imagined.

Zhu Youxing sighed in his heart.

Some players have really started to regard the Battle.net platform itself as a game, and collecting enough games on this platform will also become an achievement.

Zhu Youxing remembers that he was similar at the time. At that time, he would be secretly happy because he had hundreds of game inventories of various types, and felt that it was a very proud thing.

But then he began to slowly feel that adding too many junk games to his inventory was also polluting his game inventory, and then he simply deleted those junk games from the inventory account one by one, out of sight and out of mind, which was tantamount to restarting the game. Back to square one.

"Boss, do I need to refund all these players?"

Zhu Youxing came back to his senses, and then said: "Let's not talk about this, I want to know what you plan to do next, continue to use this kind of goal to increase the inventory of PC Battle.net?"

"No, of course not, absolutely not. I will increase the size of the game review team according to your instructions, boss, and make our Battle.net platform develop in the direction of high-quality products in the future."

"Don't over-pursue high-quality products, I just hope that there will be no more boring games like this in the future. As for other games that are boring but complete in content, there is no need to take them off the shelves, as long as they don't involve plagiarism or other bad things. Behavior."

"Okay, I'll do it now, as for those players who have already purchased the make-up game..."

Zhu Youxing thought for a moment, and then said: "Let's issue an announcement to these players, tell them clearly which games are made up, let them have the right to know, the rest is up to them to decide whether to keep these games. "

"Ah? Boss, I don't understand. The quality of these games is terrible. Why do they still want to keep them? If they know that these games are rubbish games, won't they be angry?"

"Well... I can't explain it too clearly for the time being. Anyway, you just do what I say, and don't worry about the rest."

"good."

Although Bell Ryder couldn't understand it, it was the boss's request, and he had no choice but to carry it out.

"Oh, by the way, the average quality of indie games is not very good recently, have you investigated the specific reasons?"

"I will investigate as soon as possible, and try to give you an answer to the boss within today."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your news."
