Luo Gaofeng was a little panicked.
He looked at the game on his phone and felt that it was neither right to play nor to quit.
Reason told him that anything related to thieves was probably not a good thing, but emotionally he was reluctant to give up such a treasure game. These days, it was not easy to find a game that completely suited his taste, with good-looking characters and decent planning.
He was just wondering whether he should give up traveling to ensure his safety or stick to this path until the end, when he received a message on the social media app.
Cao Mu: "How many chapters have you reached in the main story? How do you feel? Is it fun?"
This netizen named "Cao Mu" has been trying his best to persuade Luo Gaofeng to play "Expedition Girls" since last night. The two are good friends who have played several games together, otherwise Luo Gaofeng would not have rushed over to play the game as soon as the other party recommended it.
But…
Luo Gaofeng took a deep breath and typed heavily on his phone: "Cao Mu, let me ask you something. We are friends for several games. Please answer according to your conscience and don't lie to me."
Grass and trees: “?”
"Have commanders in this game ever been hacked to death? Or been dismembered by the characters they trained?"
Cao Mu was shocked: "How could you have such a horrible idea?"
Luo Gaofeng knew that his gay friend hardly ever watched anime, so he told him about Mu Suxing's "great achievements" in the past with righteous indignation, exaggerating the details, which left Caomu stunned.
Luo Gaofeng sighed: "Now you know why you are nervous, right? It's not that I think too much. When that harem show suddenly did something fancy, we didn't expect it."
Cao Mu: "Although, I still think you are overthinking it."
Cao Mu: "No matter how great the animation director you mentioned is, he just drew a few illustrations. How could he possibly affect the main storyline of "Expedition Girls"? Besides, there was a magical girl animation that was very popular for a while, and it was said to be a healing show. Wasn't it also the work of that director?"
Luo Gaofeng was skeptical.
Cao Mu comforted him: "Just relax and have fun. Besides, who would dwell on the past? No matter how beastly the director you mentioned was, that was a year ago. Why don't you allow him to mend his ways? The promotional poster for their new animation has also been released. Here it is. [Picture]"
"Look at this little round face, and then look at this soft and cute little animal. Doesn't it look like a sweet and lovely healing character? Even though I don't watch anime, I want to chase this girl just by looking at her."
Luo Gaofeng looked at the pictures sent by his gay friend.
As one of the fans of Huaying Animation, he is naturally familiar with this promotional poster. The poster depicts five magical girls, pink, black, blue, yellow and red. Among them, the pink-haired girl standing in the center is holding a fox-like "doll" in her arms and facing the front with a faint smile.
It is the promotional poster of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".
Perhaps it was because the temperament shown in the poster was too harmless that Luo Gaofeng was convinced by the plants and trees.
After finally finding a game that suits his taste, Luo Gaofeng didn't want to look for another game in the short term. Besides, as his friend said, people have to look forward -
Maybe Gou Zei has already reformed and decided to make healing animations
With such an optimistic thought, Luo Gaofeng happily continued his gaming journey. Not only that, adhering to the spirit of "sharing happiness and sharing difficulties", he not only played by himself, but also pulled in many of his friends who were originally playing other games or happened to be playing "Empire Expedition" -
“Have you played Expedition Girls? I tell you, this game is super fun! The character portraits are so beautiful that they are a whole level ahead of similar games on the market!”
"Plot? The main storyline hasn't been fully developed yet, but I think it will be a warm and healing story. Do you know the company that produced Cardcaptor Sakura, Kaei Animation? This game is actually under their umbrella."
"If nothing else, just look at the promotional poster for their next animation. Look at this little round face. Does the artist who can draw a girl so soft and cute look like a cruel, shameless pervert?"
…
The next day, Thorn Interactive Entertainment.
Because he was concerned about the new version of "Expedition Girl", Jiang Yucheng came very early that day. To his surprise, he was not the first one - when he hurried to the company, Tang Shuchang, who arrived earlier, was already waiting at the door of the office building.
"Why, you care so much about data?" Jiang Yucheng teased.
God knows, he was just as nervous as Tang Shuchang at this moment.
Yesterday, when he asked Muxuxing about his specific positioning of Thorn Interactive Entertainment, his boss clearly stated that he would consider whether to hand over the copyright of "My Hero Academia" to Thorn Interactive Entertainment based on their actual business capabilities. This actual business capability obviously depends on the specific performance of Thorn Interactive Entertainment in the new version of the game.
Jiang Yucheng was immediately attracted.
Apart from anything else, you don't know how many game companies are out there, almost lining up to beg Huaying to sell the game copyrights of their animations. Not to mention well-known IPs like "My Hero Academia", which start at at least tens of millions. How could he not be excited to have the opportunity to get the game adaptation rights for an animation of this level
What's more, Jiang Yucheng himself is also a fan of my Ying.
For an animation fan, is there anything more dreamy than adapting your favorite animation into a game by yourself
Tang Shuchang was very depressed: "Alas, you won't understand even if I tell you."
She learned about the cost situation of Blue Star Animation in detail yesterday night. She originally thought that the production cost of an animation should not be particularly high. In fact, it is just the opposite. Not only is the cost of animation itself frighteningly high, but Huaying Animation basically does not consider the cost and return on investment during the production process - anyway, they can always make a lot of money in the end.
This inevitably made Tang Shuchang doubt himself a little.
It's true that she really wants to make back the money for the production of the next, next, and next animations for her boss, but based on Huaying's spending power, the total cost of the three animations should be at least 100 million, right
While she was still feeling uneasy, Jiang Yucheng, who was equally nervous, had already opened the background data. Tang Shuchang just walked to the computer and was about to get close to Jiang Yucheng to take a look, but she saw Jiang Yucheng, as if he had seen a ghost, and he turned off the background data in an instant!
Tang Shuchang wondered, "Boss, what are you doing?"
As soon as the voice fell, without Jiang Yucheng's explanation, Tang Shuchang understood the reason for Jiang Yucheng's confusion in the next second: "Fuck! The number of online users and the amount of krypton gold have increased almost five times! Is there really nothing wrong with this data?"
Although "Expedition Girls" itself is relatively unpopular and has a small base, so even if it doubles, it won't be that much higher, but this is five times!
How many players came in at once
Tang Shuchang couldn't believe his eyes.
She was still a little dazed, but Jiang Yucheng, who was already shocked, calmed down first: "Don't be too happy too soon. The number of players and the recharge amount are only temporary. What's important is the players' perception and evaluation. Look at the game ratings and what the new players in the comment section say."
As he spoke, he opened the comment section of "Expedition Girls" on the gaming platform. Unlike the last time when it was full of complaints and insults, this time, the comment section of "Expedition Girls" was almost entirely filled with praise and compliments. A quick glance showed that there was hardly a single negative review!
“The new character illustrations are amazing! It can be seen that the planners have also worked hard on the skill mechanism. The problems reported by players last time have basically been corrected. Five-star praise!”
"Don't ask, if you ask, it's krypton explosion, honey, here I come!"
"The official is too naive. Do they think adding a few good-looking new characters and free skins can win back the hearts of players? I tell you, it really can!"
Jiang Yucheng was stunned for a moment.
It's not that it hasn't received a lot of positive reviews. When "Expedition Girls" was first released to the public, the comment section was full of praise. But that was during the public release period. Later, due to planning errors, the ratings of "Expedition Girls" plummeted visibly, and the comment section was full of curses.
What surprised Jiang Yucheng was not the praise from the players, but...
These players who received the most likes and kept saying “My wife is the cutest in the world”, weren’t they the old beta testers who were commenting and cursing “I wouldn’t play this rubbish game even if they paid me for it” half a month ago
Players who re-edited the game like this are already pretty good. Some even don't even bother to cover up or delete their original negative reviews. Instead, they just draw a dividing line and enthusiastically say, "From today on, I am a die-hard fan of Thorn Interactive Entertainment. The planner is stupid? But my wife is adorable! [Zhensheng]"
Jiang Yucheng was shocked.
Although he also knew that otakus always looked at faces, this was too real, right
In contrast, Tang Shuchang accepted this well. She patted Jiang Yucheng on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Now you know the importance of art, right? Because great art..." She pointed to the statistical table on the computer that was rising sharply, and exclaimed: "It really can save the world!"
—
The five-fold increase in the amount of in-game currency may seem huge, but considering the fact that the amount of in-game currency for "Expedition Girls" was not high in the first place, this increase only helped it return to the top 50 of the best-selling list after only three days.
Compared with the top ten games on the best-selling list, such fluctuations have hardly attracted much attention from peers, let alone large companies like Yunsu Games.
Because of this, no one noticed that such a game, which had long been forgotten by players and peers, suddenly began to crawl towards the top of the best-selling list step by step at a speed that was not too fast, but steady enough!
Some are happy, some are sad.
While players of Expedition Girls are excited about the next interesting gameplay of the game, the complaints of another group that is about to be forgotten are almost becoming real -
"Is Madoka Magica on today? No."
"Stop talking. I counted today and found that there are already 12 magical girl anime that have been aired or are currently airing, but Huaying's Madoka Magica has not yet started airing! I'm crying my eyes out. Does Xingxing know what timing means? At this rate, by the time Madoka Magica starts airing, the audience will probably no longer be interested in magical girls."
The author has something to say: That’s right.
After I tried it myself, I found that paying off 10,000 yuan a day for five consecutive days and three days a week on weekends was still too difficult for me. So the update cycle was changed to 10,000 yuan-10,000 yuan-three days a day, that is, paying off 10,000 yuan for two days and three days a week on the weekend, until 25 days are paid off.
Current progress 2/25
