The response to the release of Resident Evil was not particularly high, but there was a lot of discussion about the game on the Internet.
Horror games are not originally a particularly big category, but Resident Evil is not actually a pure horror game. At least this game reduces the level of scares to a certain extent, and more creates a sense of tension in the game.
The zombies are all real, and they are not as invisible as the so-called ghosts and gods, making people panic all the time.
So after the first week, most players liked to share their feelings about playing Resident Evil on the Internet.
And as the Internet gradually develops, it is no longer the era of killing cats with pictures. Nowadays, more and more individuals upload videos for sharing.
Following Zhuyouxing's suggestion, in addition to launching a dedicated subscription-based video service, Bob also has a platform focused on sharing videos.
However, because this platform started late, the biggest cake has already been taken away by others, but it can already be regarded as the second echelon in the industry. Especially in the separate category of video games, more players still like to play on Facebook
Share your own game video content on video websites.
Some players turned on the tap mode after playing Resident Evil. They took the initiative to recommend the game Resident Evil through their own video platforms or their own blog platforms.
"Everyone, I want to recommend a game to you today. This is the latest game launched by the greatest game company in the world: Youxing Electronic Entertainment. This game has been labeled as horror, but what I can guarantee to you is
, this game definitely does not have that many horror elements, and it is a very suitable game for everyone to play. Of course, children should not play it.”
"Recommended Resident Evil!"
Some posts and videos are strongly recommending Resident Evil.
If you are unfamiliar with it, you may suspect that this is not a troll hired by Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
But as long as those who have actually played Resident Evil have a very low fright threshold, they will be full of praise for the game Resident Evil.
Because of its tense atmosphere, the state of play is always maintained at a high level, and this game is very suitable and always gives players some breathing time to relax, and then waits for the player to relax, and then quickly resumes
Give players a more tense combat state.
With such an ups and downs of play, it is really easy for players to get addicted to it.
Ueto Hayakawa is also a member of the traveling army.
Now as the president of Suri Electronics, he probably won't have much time to play games anymore.
But he will still try his best to take time out to study the games of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
Because every time Youxing Electronic Entertainment will become a benchmark in the game development industry, you have to admire this.
Especially games produced by Zhu Youxing need to be taken seriously.
Of course, after completing the level, I just felt emotional.
I'm afraid this Zhu Youxing also has very high attainments in psychology.
The rhythm in the game is really good, and the content of the game itself is also attractive enough. Just the setting of the T-virus infecting zombies is already very attractive, not to mention the very interesting gameplay of the game itself.
Decryption, exploration, collection, horror and other elements are brought together.
Can your own team do the same? The experience in this area is obviously not enough.
This is really frustrating. This cannot be done simply by plagiarism. Otherwise, the outstanding filmmakers and novelists in this world would not be as rare as a handful.
However, the setting of the T-virus infecting zombies is quite worthy of reference.
You don’t have to worry about copyright issues for this thing, you can just change the name and skin.
He has recently seen hundreds of posts on the Internet discussing the t-virus.
And this is only in the first week of the game's release.
Compared with many games released before, it is more likely to arouse heated discussions among players.
Perhaps it's because the game itself is very close to reality, but at the same time it's also very magical.
For example, some posts are discussing how to protect yourself from so-called zombies if they really appear in real life?
Or maybe some people have started to say that they have seen similar symptoms, but fortunately they were not bitten at first, otherwise they would really turn into zombies.
Immediately afterwards, the owner of the post was reminded to call the police quickly, saying that zombies were spreading and attacking.
In such a discussion environment, it is obvious that players like this game and this so-called zombie setting very much.
Hayakawa Ueto understands that although the sales of this game seem not to be as good as some of the previous games produced by Takeyusei, and can even be regarded as the worst sales in the first week of the games produced by Takeyusei in recent years, the topic of this game is still hotly discussed.
It's really high.
Moreover, he seemed to vaguely see signs of breaking out of the circle, which was really outrageous.
But this just gave Hayakawa Ueto inspiration. He took advantage of this time to launch a zombie game like this. Maybe it would have unexpected effects?
It doesn't require a big investment. As long as you take advantage of the hot discussion on this topic and launch a zombie-type game, it will be enough to attract the attention of these players who like this setting very much.
In the building headquarters of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, Zhu Youxing is also constantly observing the dynamics on the Internet.
He no longer particularly cares about sales performance.
The investment in the game itself is actually barely adequate, probably more than 30 million US dollars, and just like before, this game has also accumulated good experience for the team and saved a lot of resources.
The resources can be reused for subsequent games in the future, which can help save more money for future games, so in reality, the cost recovery ratio of this game should be very good.
And following this trend, it is definitely no problem to sell one million in the end, which will be at least a minimum sales of 60 million US dollars. This is enough motivation for Bamboo Star to develop the next sequel.
do.
As long as he can see that players love the game enough, he will be willing to continue doing it.
Before it was released, he was worried that this setting and this horror game would not be liked by too many players. After all, it was a game in a different world, so there was no guarantee that people would like it 100%, and it was already very niche to begin with.
