The so-called "gods in the game field" are all understood. They usually come from Tieba friends. They always think that the truth is in their own hands. They usually speak very irritably. Their main focus is to output emotions with one hand and make judgments and decisions. In conclusion, that is called self-confidence.
And after being slapped in the face by the facts, the way they talk arrogantly is quite interesting. It is understandable that they are ridiculed as "monkeys". You must observe monkeys in a civilized manner.
In this era, barbers who consider themselves "gods in the gaming field" are basically "noble" console players. They feel it is humiliating to play a PC game, let alone a mobile game.
In their opinion, mobile games are just the most primitive mini-games. Playing such games would be too cheap!
However, "Aiyou", a game production company that has just emerged but has great potential, actually invested its carefully polished works into the mobile game track. This is simply "self-indulgent"!
So these "big gods" in the gaming field directly laughed at the "iyou" company, and then made bets on how long this so-called "free mobile game" could survive, and the vast majority of them thought it would not exceed Three months——
"This kind of 'pay for love' free games that make money through rewards will always have a group of die-hard fans to support them in the early stage. Anyway, the two stand-alone galgames of 'Aiyou' are still very popular. Look, For their sake, there will always be people who will donate generously, but as time goes by, these die-hard fans will not keep giving!"
"'Aiyou' is such a weird company. It has been focusing on single-player galgames. Even if it can't make a lot of money, it can at least become a benchmark in this field. But then it seems like it has lost its mind. If you don't understand the development route, you can refer to those A senior who grew up from a small company to a gaming giant!"
"The critical comments of Du Guoxin, a former well-known game producer in the industry, are quite reasonable. Free games will never last long, let alone it is a mobile game. It sounds very cheap. Players who are willing to pay for it are just a joke. !”
"No matter what, I will scold you, but you still have to play, don't take advantage of the bastard, the main theme is a song of companionship and free prostitution!" the bar friend nicknamed [Leopard Head Lingchong] said confidently.
…
The old gamers who thought they had a deep understanding of the gaming industry were discussing it in a lively manner, as if they had sentenced the "iyou" company to death.
And they had no idea that after the recharge started in the third test, the sales of "Arknights" had already made the entire company happy.
President Xu Mingwei waved his hand and decided to continue to invest more resources in publicity before the public beta, and to carry out the "buy volume" to the end!
In fact, in the earth world, "Arknights" has been promoted very well. Its advertisements will appear in almost all larger communities and forums. Many non-two-dimensional players have played this mobile game. Then I fell into a pit and couldn't get out.
Even in the later stages of playing, its grass period will be very boring, and then some maps are completely copied and it is quite frustrating. Over time, you will doubt yourself, what is the meaning of playing this tower defense strategy game...
But no matter what, there is no doubt that for free mobile games, publicity is really important. Anyway, it doesn’t cost money to play this game. Of course, the greater the exposure, the better. You can attract as many users as you can. If you find a "high-quality" player who is willing to spend 648 krypton, it will be worth many ordinary players.
Therefore, in two-dimensional games, players who have no money will always say "Thank you, Mr. Krypton, for supporting the server", which is really no problem, but ordinary players spend 30 yuan to buy a monthly card. After a long period of time, their payment is worth it. The whole game.
After deciding on this publicity strategy, the timeline was directly extended to December of this year. The promotion of "Arknights" was immediately full, and the number of reservations for the game easily exceeded one million!
It is a pity that the influence of "iyou" company is only limited to the country, and it is not possible to open public beta in many countries around the world at the same time.
But even so, it is unprecedented for a mobile game to have such a large publicity!
Other companies in the game industry are still watching with cold eyes. Some game company executives even think that this small company is crazy and directly make such a big gamble. Is it necessary?
"Friends, this is a big gamble" and "Study is a kind of wisdom" are the most appropriate descriptions of the "Aiyou" company. It can only be said that this centralized company with the three giants really dares to gamble, unlike that For a listed company that must be responsible to its shareholders, senior executives will not dare to gamble recklessly. "Consolidating capital and increasing efficiency" is their eternal pursuit.
And soon, everyone knew where the "Aiyou" company had come from so much capital. It turned out to be the money earned during the "three tests".
This naturally caused public opinion to be unfavorable——
"Aiyou is a company that's completely gone. The turnover money earned during the previous three beta tests was all from the rewards of die-hard fans. Now that the game is about to be released to the public, where are the leeks for them to cut?"
"Oh, the people have become poor, and there is no money to be made. I originally predicted that this game would be dead in three months, but now I feel that it will be released in two months..."
"Does such overwhelming publicity really make sense? It's just a niche two-dimensional game, and it's a mobile game. It will never make back the cost of publicity!"
"The gambling nature of this company is really great. It is said that the president of the company is still a college student? No wonder their tactics are so radical. Anyway, the entire gaming industry has been fooled by them."
"I'm really impressed by the cool operation of this 'Aiyou' company. Instead of following the good single-player galgame route, I insist on making free mobile games. This is simply suicidal!"
…
The timeline is on the Saturday of the last week of December this year, which happens to be Christmas in the West. "Arknights", which will be nicknamed "Christmas Week" in the future, is officially open to the public!
Of course, later on, because it had so many die-hard fans and they were too crazy, these fans also got a title that is homophonic to "Zhou Chu". Of course, some people called them "congee batch", but there was no such thing as "nong batch" or "nong batch". "Original batch" is so smooth to the ear, but "Zhou Chu" is more palatable.
No matter how obsessed the die-hard fans are, one thing can be explained, that is, the game itself does have its merits. Otherwise, why would there be so many people bragging about it and speaking for it, not even the fandom? It can be marketed casually.
Although the public opinion is not optimistic about this big gamble of "iyou" company, the players who were attracted by the overwhelming publicity all had a kind of curiosity and tried this first "free mobile game" in their lives. ".
