“I didn’t expect that the games produced by Red and White Company are so excellent.”
"This game is definitely the best game of the year, bar none."
"A brand new game, and most importantly, free." This is what most reviews say.
For players, a free game is so incredible.
Can you make money with free games?
This is the doubt in everyone's heart.
As we all know, games can make money from later DLC.
But the profit from DLC is only a small amount after all.
Therefore, online game companies will charge based on time, that is, point cards.
Therefore, this free single-player game from Red and White Company is a bit unreasonable.
"The Hongbai Company is still too young." Daegu shook his head.
Maybe Red and White wants to attract more players for free.
However, this strategy has been used by other companies, but in the end it could not withstand the early losses.
Besides, this is a single player game.
The market for stand-alone games is inherently smaller than that of online games.
Moreover, the player stickiness of stand-alone games is not as high as that of online games. An average player can have dozens of hours of game time, which is considered very good.
But after thinking about the financial resources of Hongbai Company, all this is not a problem.
"Hongbai Company is rich and willful." Daegu smiled and shook his head.
Daegu has already searched for the elves of the Red and White Company before.
On the Internet, people almost always have positive reviews for Elf.
This also makes Daegu full of expectations for this game.
With the IP of Elf, Red and White will definitely take this game seriously.
So no matter how bad it is, it won’t be any worse...
Bar?
The level of games in this world is basically the same all over the world.
In Li Qiuran's previous life, it was all a piece of shit that wanted effects but no results, and wanted plot but no plot.
And most of them are linear RPG stand-alone games and online games.
However, judging from the cute painting style of the elves, this stand-alone game should be more cartoony.
Considering Daegu's own personality, cartoon games are really not very to his liking. After all, he is already 30 years old.
"Daegu, believe me, this game is absolutely awesome." At this time, the group leader sent another message to Daegu.
Daegu and the group leader have almost the same gaming preferences.
The two have known each other for almost ten years.
Daegu knows the group owner very well.
This guy definitely doesn't like cartoon games.
But he would not praise a game like this without conscience.
Next, the group owner sent a lot of Amway messages to Daegu.
Daegu reluctantly closed the dialog box.
It was two years ago that the last time the group leader played Amway games like this.
At that time, it was the dark gene monster that was the masterpiece of Country M.
That game is still played by many players.
Even Daegu himself occasionally orders it to play.
As far as the performance of the group leader is concerned, this greedy spirit will definitely not be any worse!
Daegu is an outsourced programmer, and he is just at home today.
Looking at the slowly scrolling download bar on the screen, he felt anxious inside.
He took a deep breath and walked out of the house to buy a cup of coffee and a cigarette.
When he got home, he sat back in front of the computer, ate snacks and waited for the download.
During the download, he also browsed the red and white company's scarves.
After watching the videos of various elves, he said somewhat speechlessly: "Wouldn't it be great to continue being an elf? Why do you want to play games?"
In his opinion, games basically lose money.
Now only those big companies can make some profits from games.
This has led to the decline of the game industry, and small companies and new companies have almost no chance of getting ahead.
At this time, the ding-dong sound of the game download being completed disrupted Daegu's random thoughts.
Extremely excited, he immediately clicked on the game.
The screen went black and then entered the opening cg.
The dark blue night sky was filled with stars, and then a red and white Poké Ball appeared on the screen from far to near.
"Elf ball." Daegu murmured.
Poke balls are very popular these days.
Daegu also knows something about this product of space technology.
It's really incredible.
Wow.
With a crisp sound, the elf ball exploded in the middle of the screen.
A cute meow jumped out of it.
Meow Meow looked around in fear, then opened the banner and ran out of the screen.
Banner drives the main menu.
The cg is not long, but it is more exquisitely made, and Daegu can also enjoy watching it.
"Judging from this level, Hongbai Company definitely puts its heart into making games." Daegu was very satisfied.
He clicked "Start Game"
The screen went black again.
This time the beginning is unfolded in the form of a comic strip.
"CG is too expensive, which is understandable." Daegu is very tolerant.
The comic strip is very simple. The general meaning is that an elf took a spaceship and came to a strange planet, and then began to grow.
The comic strip ends and the first chapter of the game begins.
The default elf is Charmander at first.
The game screen is a 2D perspective from above.
Charmander is a small one, orange-red, with short short legs that twist and turn as it runs, making it look very cute.
There was a "cp:0" data on his head.
"This is the combat value." Daegu, a hardcore player, immediately understood the meaning of this data.
The scene at the beginning is a house.
Under the guidance, Daegu controlled the small fire dragon to enter the house and come to the kitchen.
There is some food scattered on the kitchen floor.
There is milk, cookies, etc.
Charmander walked onto the milk under control.
Gulu.
The milk disappears.
The cp value on Charmander's head increased by 5 points.
At this point, Daegu roughly understands how to play the game.
Elves' abilities can be increased by eating items.
So Daegu started cleaning up the kitchen.
By the time Charmander walked out of the kitchen, his cp had reached 100, and his figure was a little stronger.
"Can it become bigger as the CP increases? Or even evolve?" Daegu guessed.
Then he began to secretly scavenge food from the house.
But at this moment, the owner of the house came back.
Then under Daegu's shocked eyes, the owner of the house took out a Poke Ball and threw it out.
Snapped.
The elf ball exploded, and a small fire dragon jumped out of it.
The CP on this Charmander's head is 500, and its size is a bit larger.
Then the Charmander rushed towards the Charmander controlled by Daegu.
Snapped.
With a soft sound, the screen in Daegu went dark.
game over.
Daegu:......
"What kind of world is this?" Daegu looked desperate.
He immediately clicked start again.
This game...
interesting.
"It should start with a humble beginning and then go all over the world, right?" Daegu said excitedly.
Such a way to play...
How interesting!
"Daegu, is it fun?" At this time, the group leader sent a message.
