All night long.
Carp Star Card House and Xuanwu Star Network are like two big colanders, constantly revealing new game information through various channels.
Under this violent attack, the players on the Star Network were briefly divided into three camps.
On the one hand are players who support Carp Star Card House and Pokémon. They are composed of young people, and they are basically fans of a series of previous games such as "Tetris" and "Mario Brothers".
It is worth mentioning that some of them are novice players who only got into the game after seeing the promotional video of Pokémon.
Most of them are teenagers who are full of middle school fantasies. They still have a longing for using Star Cards. They hope to experience the feeling of having extraordinary power in the Pokémon game and make up for the regret of not being able to become Star Card Masters.
The players who support the two established giants and "Star Wars" are mostly sentimental parties.
A large part of them are hardcore players who entered the game industry in its infancy.
The games of Xuanwu and Xingwang accompanied them throughout their youth, until they had to work during the day and take care of their children at night.
The pressure from all parties after adulthood has gradually turned these players into cloud players who "have no time to play games". However, the emergence of "Star Wars" has rekindled the fire buried in their hearts, making them eager to play it. This game.
As the game information spread, players from both sides began to bicker on game forums, with no one convinced by the other.
One party believes that the emergence of Pokémon and the use of star card technology break through the limitations of the game itself, allowing players to experience the game more immersively.
This game mode that combines star cards will inevitably become the mainstream in the future, and the creator of the game, Lu Li, will also become the originator of this faction!
However, the other side believes that the criterion for judging whether a game is excellent should be the quality of the game itself, not the form of the game.
For more than ten years, masterpieces have appeared on handheld consoles, computers, mobile phones... various forms of carriers.
Therefore, even if Pokémon follows the general trend of the world and uses star cards as a new game carrier, it cannot be said that it is a high-quality game.
However, "Star Wars" is different.
It is a work created by two veteran giants who have been working hard for several years. It is a sure thing that the game is of high quality, and all players can eat it with confidence.
Just as players from both sides were arguing, a third group of players appeared.
——They are the most Buddhist group and a neutral group.
This type of people are not fans of any company, they just simply like games.
They sincerely hope that the battle between the two gods can happen more often and that the gaming industry can produce several more masterpieces.
Regarding the situation in major forums where fans of the two families are dissatisfied with the other, they are still enjoying themselves.
Like fans from both sides, the officials of Carp Star Card House and Xuanwu Star Network are also secretly competing with each other.
The publicity and distribution operations of both parties were as if they had taken the wrong medicine. They did not rest all night and kept "leaking secrets" to the outside world.
On the game forum, new information posts appear almost every half hour.
The words "Pokémon" and "Star Wars" massacred the entire page.
This grand occasion lasted until six in the morning. Just when almost all the players were exhausted and no longer debated, Xuanwu Games released its ultimate move.
——"Interstellar War" starts pre-sale immediately.
This news was like a fire, igniting everyone's enthusiasm again.
Players who originally planned to get into bed got out of bed again, excitedly turned on the computer and clicked on the pre-sale interface.
As a result, the pre-sale interface of "Star Wars" was completely crowded, and the situation did not improve until 8 o'clock in the morning.
...
Time flies, and the third day soon comes.
The debate between the players on both sides is not over. The heated discussion even caused the sales of both sides' games to increase.
On the sixth day of the pre-sale period, Pokémon sales have already exceeded the one million mark, reaching 1.5 million copies.
As a latecomer, Xuanwu Games also announced the three-day sales data of "Star Wars" in the early morning of the fourth day.
——886753.
Yes.
880,000 copies, a very auspicious number.
If it weren't for the Pokémon Jewel, this result would be a perfect answer to create history.
Whether it’s 500,000 for “Star Force 2” from Page Games, or 510,000 for “Mario Brothers” from Carp Star Card House, they all seem to pale in comparison to “Star Wars”.
For such a result, Carp Star Card House fans are of course happy to see it.
Although 880,000 is high, it is not high enough and is far less than the three-day sales of Pokémon.
They happily appeared under posts praising "Star Wars" and sent the mysterious code 8897 to taunt each other.
However, the good times did not last long. The 8897 meme only appeared for half a day, and a new meme emerged from the fans of "Star Wars".
——Pokemon cost one billion to make, but only 970,000 copies were sold; Star Wars cost 60 million, but only 880,000 copies were sold.
The implication behind it is that Pokémon sells more than "Star Wars", and that's what it should be.
After all, the amount of star coins invested by the Carp Star Card House in Pokémon is dozens of times that of the Xuanwu Star Network!
However, there is no point in arguing anymore.
Because tomorrow is the time when the two gods officially confront each other!
The two games will be released on the same day this weekend. You will know the quality once you play them.
...
That night.
Jinling City, a barbecue restaurant.
"Boss, give me ten more mutton skewers and a bowl of duck blood and vermicelli soup." Bai Peiqi shouted loudly with a relaxed look on her face.
"Come on~"
The owner of the barbecue restaurant had already prepared a plate of fragrant food and placed it on the table.
"Why don't you eat it?" Boss Bai grabbed two mutton skewers and put them on the plate in front of Qian Jing.
At this time, Boss Qian's sad face was in sharp contrast to his friend's happy face.
"It's so sad," Qian Jing bitterly picked up the mutton skewers and complained, "It feels like the whole world is talking about Pokémon and interstellar wars, but who knew that my new game would be a hit."
Yes.
In the past few days of the battle between the two gods, Prospect Company has also quietly released a new game that has been in preparation for a long time - "Rise of the Planets".
But as the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.
Under the light of two quasi-masterpieces, "Planet Rise" looks dull and uninterested.
Three-day sales were only a miserable 250,000 copies.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand, isn't that not bad?" Bai Peiqi said to the fans with a smile, "This is almost a return on investment. The return on investment within three days is much better than most game companies."
"That's what I said..." Qian Jing sighed, "But after so many years, I still don't have a work that I can produce, so I feel a little bit unwilling."
