Chapter 240 Trial
Finally, after several rounds of warm-up, both "Minecraft" and "A Thousand Prisons" have released their launch dates.
Both games are scheduled to be launched on August 1st. In terms of price, "Thousand Prisons" is priced at 1288, while "Minecraft" is only priced at 128, which is exactly one-tenth of "Thousand Prisons".
The price of "Thousands of Prisons" seems to be a normal level in domestic VR games, but it is actually low.
Because it is the same as "Diablo", it is a stand-alone game. There are very few value-added services in the game. The main revenue comes from the sales of the game itself. After the player buys it, there is basically no follow-up cost, so this money is relatively Compared with other domestic VR games, it should be considered relatively cheap.
Of course, this is not to say that Emperor Dynasty Mutual Entertainment's conscience, but because the resources of "Thousands of Prisons" do not consume so much, and many scenes are reused, so the research and development cost is greatly reduced.
Emperor Dynasty Mutual Entertainment set the price slightly lower, and also hoped to sell more sales.
As for Minecraft.
Many people are amazed that "Minecraft" is sold so cheaply. For a VR game, 128 is like a free gift.
(Generally speaking, dividing a VR game by ten is the price of a PC game, which means that Minecraft is roughly equivalent to a 12-yuan PC game on a VR platform.)
But in fact, Chen Mo is still expensive.
Because making "Minecraft" really doesn't require any investment, when developing the PC version, the investment is almost negligible. Even if it is changed to the VR version, with so many optimizations and adjustments, the total investment will only be more than ten million yuan. .
For Chen Mo, more than 10 million is really not a big cost. The main cost of making "Minecraft" is the cost of time.
Therefore, Chen Mo is not priced so high. What he wants is sales. Only when sales increase and there are more players can Minecraft show its true potential.
Chen Mo's goal is to install Minecraft on every VR game cabin in the country.
...
On August 1st, "Minecraft" and "A Thousand Prisons" were officially launched!
After the two games were opened for purchase, players who have been following these two games began to download them one after another, and couldn’t wait to install them in the game cabin to experience.
Moyu live broadcast platform,
Lin Xue's live broadcast room.
The screen is still black, and the audience is chatting with bullet screens one after another.
"Axue is switching the signal of the game cabin? Live the VR game today?"
"Yeah, I heard that "Thousands of Prisons" is on sale today. It should be played on the official server. After all, Axue is a die-hard fan of "Darkness"."
"Uh, shouldn't die-hard fans of "Darkness" play Chen Mo's new game?"
"Playing wool, it's a building block game, who should watch it."
"Huh? There is a signal, and the game cabin screen comes out."
On the screen of the live broadcast room, the information screen of the game cabin appeared.
VR games in this world can also be broadcast live, but they need to be converted into live broadcast signals through the game cabin for players to watch.
To give a simple example, such as a first-person RPG like "Thousands of Prisons", the player's perspective is first-person and the field of view is 124 degrees, but after converting to a live signal, the perspective will become a third-person follow-up perspective (that is, the camera will move to behind the character's head), the field of view also changes to 90 degrees on the computer screen.
After all, if the video signal from the first-person perspective is directly converted into the live screen, it is too shaky, and most viewers will be stunned.
The current interface is equivalent to the desktop of the game cabin. There are a lot of games, and "Thousands of Prisons" is in a more prominent position.
As a result, before the barrage had time to be complacent, Lin Xue had already opened Minecraft.
The barrage was stunned.
"Ah? 'Minecraft'? Really 'Minecraft'?"
"Axue turned sexual? How did she play this kind of building block game?"
"Ri, I don't want to watch it!"
"Upstairs, if you don't like to watch it, hurry up, we like to watch everything Axue plays!"
Lin Xue said: "Today, I will broadcast Minecraft to everyone. This game was also developed by Chen Mo. Hey, I won't explain much, let's go straight to the game."
Lin Xue's somewhat ambiguous remarks caused a barrage of gossip.
"What does Axue mean, what do you mean by not explaining much?"
"I feel like Axue trusts Chen Mo's game very much..."
"I, why did I smell a different smell!"
In a question mark in the barrage, the screen cuts to the game screen of "Minecraft".
Lin Xue was now in a field, and in the distance was the rising sun.
Several white clouds in the sky make up the game LOGO: Minecraft. There is also the English name MINECRAFT.
Dominion Rift
Not far in front of Lin Xue's left, there was a hut made of squares, with four big characters [My World] written on it.
On the left is a path that winds to a dense forest. Many buildings in the distance can be vaguely seen. The sign reads [Others World].
On the right of Lin Xue, there is a huge observatory with a huge globe on it. It says "Everyone's World".
In an inconspicuous place to the right of the observatory, there is a slightly smaller portal with the words "Chen Mo's World" written on it.
In addition, there is a building similar to a warehouse next to the hut in [Minecraft], which reads [Resource Center].
Of course, all the buildings are made of blocks and have a strong mosaic style.
It seems that this scene should be the game login screen.
Lin Xue tried to walk around the scene, and when she looked down, she realized that her image in the game had also changed into a toy figurine.
The audience's third-person perspective can see more clearly, Lin Xue is a bit like the villain in the "Frozen" series of toys in LEGGO building blocks, Q version, standard three-headed body, blond hair, and wearing a cute white skirt and Stockings are very cute when walking.
"Minecraft" will automatically read the player's account data in the game cabin when the player just logs in, and use this as the basis to determine the initial gender of the character.
A cute puppy came to Lin Xue with a display card in his mouth.
"The character image has been randomly selected for you according to the account gender. Do you need to customize it yourself?"
Lin Xue chose [Yes] without any hesitation. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
If this game doesn't provide a face pinching service, that's fine. Since it does, how can you not pin your face?
Lin Xue's perspective has changed, from the previous first-person perspective to the third-person perspective, looking down at his character like a soul out of body.
At the same time, relevant interface UIs appeared on both sides of the characters, allowing Xue Lin to freely choose and dress up.
"It's quite rich..."
Lin Xue looked at it and found that although the game looked relatively simple, all the functions were quite complete. Take the face pinching system as an example, the character's face, hat, shirt, trousers, shoes, etc. can be freely selected, and even the height of the character can be adjusted within a certain range.
After carefully selecting for half an hour, Lin Xue finally chose a satisfactory outfit.
"Um...Which mode should I play first?"
Lin Xue thought for a while: "Let's experience the stand-alone game first, otherwise it would be bad to cheat people in the online mode."
