Build a game empire from scratch

Xin Linghua? Commander?

Lin You didn't expect it to be like this at all.

After Lin You decided on the publicity strategy for Gravity, Shen Ping didn't delay at all. He contacted Xin Linghua that afternoon and made an appointment to shoot the game promotional video.

Because he was worried that some players would suddenly succeed, Shen Ping led the team to overtime several shifts, working in Xin Linghua's free time at night, and finally finished the promotional video in only three days.

But it turns out: her worries were completely unnecessary.

After the promotional video was shot, it was put there, and there was no sign of using it for eight months.

- No player can survive in space at all!

So it's...can't wait?

Xin Linghua finished filming the promotional video, and he might even brag about it to his family and friends, but the video couldn't be released, and the more he waited, the more anxious he became, so...he went on it himself?

Lin You guessed.

Didn't you realize that this old man is still a conspicuous bag?

Wait for a good laugh!

Over there, Shen Ping was still asking Lin You: He is somewhat suspected of violating the rules by doing this... Is this okay?

It's okay. Lin You shook his head, Let's proceed as usual, the delay has indeed been long enough.

Okay. Shen Ping also heaved a sigh of relief, I'll get ready right now.

During this period of time, Xin Linghua was not the only one who was anxiously waiting?

The Gravity team under her has been fishing for more than half a month, and Ye Xiaohe asks her to walk the cat and dog every day, which is really a bit outrageous...

Okay, thank you for your hard work.

After Lin You hung up the phone, he called Xin Linghua without hesitation.

—He's not sleepy at all now.

He wanted to rush to laugh at Xin Linghua immediately!

An hour later, the official account of Chang'an took the lead in taking action——

[Dark Soul data released for one week! ]

The nine posters are rich in pictures and texts, forming this nine-square grid dynamic.

Dark Soul has only been released for a week, and it has been searched many times in succession. Both the popularity and sales have been steadily rising. Now the new news released by the official has attracted a large number of players to click on it in an instant——

first slide:

[As of 00:00 on April 7th, the total number of deaths of Dark Souls heroes worldwide has exceeded 10.3 billion. ]

[All corpses connected together can circle the earth 424 times! ]

Under these two lines, there is still a cute cartoon picture: on a cartoon earth, cartoon villains with different dead shapes are connected head to toe, circling the earth circle after circle.

The painting style is very cute.

But the players' heads are full of question marks:

Early in the morning, just click on it and show me this, right?!

I just felt a little better after seeing the perfect ending yesterday, and now I'm starting to play this again?

I can't eat breakfast anymore! When I close my eyes, I look like I have died miserably. You are really good at mentality!

...

Fortunately, the second one looks much more harmonious:

[As of 0:00 on April 7th, the total online time of Dark Souls players worldwide has exceeded 3 billion hours! Converted to adult years, it is about 340,000 years. ]

[Among them, the player [My name is Lying Silkworm] has been online for more than 102 hours and has become the most active player in the world. ]

The content of this kind of picture is that in a miniature city of Luoyang, a group of villains wearing armor and holding swords are fighting with some cute cartoon monsters.

In the middle of the screen, a player with huge black eye circles like a panda, wearing the ID of [My name is Lying Silkworm], lay on the pile of monsters and fell asleep, throwing the sword in his hand aside.

Although this poster did not engage in player mentality, it also aroused violent complaints:

God is 340,000 years old! The birth of human beings is less than 100,000 years old, okay?!

That's not important! Take a look at that liver emperor!

What happened to Emperor Gan? It's not like I haven't seen him before.

What nonsense are you talking about earlier? Dark Soul was tested last Tuesday. It was said to be a week, but it was actually only 6 days.

16 multiplied by 6... Fuck! 96 hours?! Then how can this dude be online for 102 hours?

unbelievable!!

...

The third one:

[As of 0:00 on April 7, more than 73.68 million players of Dark Soul have completed the first pass. ]

Under this line, there are more detailed statistics of the number of people who have achieved different endings:

[King of Darkness]: 58.44 million people

[Unknown Savior]: 34.18 million people

[Dancing with Dragons]: 6.88 million

Obviously, the players who reach these three endings overlap greatly.

After reaching an unsatisfactory ending, quite a few people start the second week or restart it directly, and then play other endings.

As for the perfect ending [Dances with Dragons], because it was only discovered last night, the number of people who have achieved it is still very small.

The fourth sheet: Dark Soul global player distribution ranking.

Fifth card: The total number of monsters killed by the player, and the ID of the killer king with the first number of kills.

The sixth card: The total number of players killed by traps such as [Trap], [Rolling Stone], [Iron Ball], [Crossbow Arrow], [Treasure Chest], and the leaderboard of the number of players killed by each type of trap.

——In this poster, the artist vividly depicts the appearance of various cartoon players being entrapped to death, which also produced quite a good response.

Seventh: Leaderboard of the number of players killed by special mobs.

Those who can make it to this list are mostly mobs who hide behind doors, corners, overhead, in dark environments... and other insidious positions to attack players.

Players are not so much killed by mobs as they are killed by game designers...

So not surprisingly, this list was also frantically complained by players.

Eighth: The leaderboard of the number of players killed by the BOSS.

In this list, the number of deaths of players far exceeds that of mobs.

However, the players didn't have any complaints about this list, and they all recalled their experience of being brutalized by a certain BOSS.

——The design of the boss by the development team has been widely recognized by the players.

And after many battles, everyone has enough strength to defeat their opponents, so they can treat these bosses peacefully.

The last one: the leaderboard of the number of BOSS deaths.

This should have been an ordinary set of data.

But because there was an entry for [White Dragon], this list instantly became uncommon.

In particular, the number after [白龙] has unknowingly climbed to 34.61 million times—after Qianhe released the information that Bailong is actually Xinxin, it suddenly increased by 1.93 million!

This has to mention a special phenomenon in the player circle:

Close all social networks directly after the new game is released, and never open it without clearing the level.

What I am afraid of is being accidentally spoiled by netizens, which affects my game experience.

Therefore, the tragedy is still spreading quietly...

Players don't know this.

They only know: Yunmeng has started messing with their mentality again!

Of course, there are also more fun people who laughed wildly after seeing this data, and posted comments while laughing:

Let's congratulate these 34.61 million powerful [Dragon Slayers]!

As for [Dragon Slayer] himself, he was naturally not happy at all...

Especially not long after deleting files and restarting, people who still have to go to work now are in an extremely bad mood. In addition to today's Monday, they even feel like dying.

Ever since, the gate of Yunmeng's headquarters became even busier.

——Since the truth of [Dragon Slayer] was discovered, there has been another wave of blade sending craze among players, and now the appearance of this list is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire again!

Qiao Nanyu is really preparing seriously this time, and is going to hold an online charity sale.

Because if there is no way to clean up these things, the warehouse will be full!

——

Dark Soul has come to an end, and the detailed outline will be enriched later.

Please take a little leave, today is an update.
