"Tomb Raider" and "Battlefield" are released for ten days.
The heat has dropped a bit.
The logo animation announced by Linmu Studio has officially succeeded the two games and has become the most concerned and discussed topic among domestic players during this period...
And within these ten days.
Except for the initial snapping sound, it looks like a logo animation of something being installed.
Linmu Studio has released multiple new logo animations one after another.
Various animations.
There are street graffiti, simple words, and engines spewing blue fireworks...
In short, it’s all kinds of strange.
Players are becoming more and more curious about what this is.
Starting from the third day, some players began to collect the logo animations released by Linmu Studio, and then summarized and posted them on the forum.
Updated every day.
As the time goes.
There are more and more new logo animations on the posts.
More and more players are replying.
They research and discuss what these logos are.
The host’s statement is recognized by more and more players.
However, there is still no stone hammer on this point, so some players do not agree with it.
But one thing is certain.
That is--
As players discuss, research, and even argue.
Animated logos are becoming more popular.
Players' expectations are being raised day by day, getting higher and higher.
Originally, this situation would last until thirty days later.
But this day.
Linmu Studio suddenly released two preview videos for this year’s E-Sports Festival——
The new king.
Challengers.
On one side is last year's champion.
On one side are this year's challengers.
Professional players appeared one by one in the promotional video.
It has been the third year that Linmu Studio has held competitions, and the experience has been very rich.
Even if it's just two simple promotional videos.
I haven’t watched the official game yet.
The players were all excited to see it.
On the forum, posts reprinting the two promotional videos were posted, and there were countless replies of cheers and expectations.
As for e-sports, after the promotional video was released, those logo animations were temporarily suppressed and became the focus of discussion among players.
Until... that night.
A post appeared on the homepage of the largest gaming forum in China.
[At four minutes and twenty-five seconds, when the players from China and Taiwan are sitting on the sofa and say, "If you want to win, this is the beginning of this game." What game is on the half of the screen on the right side of the camera? 】
A player who watched the promotional video very carefully raised his own questions.
Originally, many players who saw this post did not take it seriously.
After all, the promotional video for this e-sports event is not just one project, but all the projects combined. It is normal for some players to know about "Breakout" but not about games like Warcraft.
but.
When some enthusiastic players click into the post, they are ready to answer the question of the player who raised the question.
See screenshot.
But he was stunned.
Because they don't recognize the games on that half of the screen.
That's not a Linwood Studios game.
Or to be more precise.
Linmu Studios currently does not have any similar games.
This discovery.
Word spread quickly.
Then below this post.
More promotional video ‘Easter eggs’ have been posted…
"The Challengers promotional video, two minutes and eleven seconds, on the big outdoor screen, isn't that the brainwashing Pata logo!? Although it's a little blurry and fleeting, it's definitely it!"
"Three minutes and thirty-two seconds, on the farthest screen, it looks like a racing game!?"
"There is actually one minute and three seconds of the New King promotional video that is worth paying attention to. In the most corner, there is a controller! Although it is very blurry, it feels like a controller, and I am very sure that it is not a controller from the three major console manufacturers.
I haven’t seen it at all!”
"Damn it! Did you watch the promotional video so carefully?"
"seriously?"
"..."
The easter eggs that Lin Yao buried in the promotional video were found one by one.
Even if you can't find it for a while.
Players who saw the post later watched the promotional video frame by frame and found them all.
And the effect is.
very good.
Players are excited about their discoveries, as if they are discovering a new continent!
"That's definitely a new game! Absolutely!"
"I'm still holding my pipa half-hiding, it's really you, Lin Mu Studio, now I'm even more looking forward to it. [Excited], I've been waiting for thirty days! No matter what it is, I hope you won't let me down!"
"Is that controller a hint? Please tell me the truth, bosses."
"The four-minute-and-25-second game looks like the map is so big..."
"Can anyone tell? The game shown in the promotional video corresponds to the animated logo announced by Linmu Studio?"
"E-sports promotional videos are so labor-intensive, so there's no need to say anything about it, right?"
“Damn it, it’s so appetizing!!!!”
"Linmu Studio is really good at playing..."
"..."
It is clear.
This is the practice of inserting easter eggs in promotional videos.
Make players excited.
The effect is much better than directly sticking it in the most conspicuous position of the promotional video.
Because this gives players the pleasure of discovering the truth.
So this day.
The topic of e-sports and Linmu Studio has swept the entire gaming circle.
In the game circle, almost all the talk is about Linmu Studio.
As a player said in a message.
Linmu Studio is really good at playing...
As for other game companies, Linmu Studio knows how to play.
It's simply a dimensionality reduction blow.
It's the end of the year, and all game companies have activities.
But now all the popularity has been taken away by Linmu Studio...
It's... very irritating.
"Is the marketing department opposite you really better than you?"
Sky Fox.
Li Guangsheng looked at the head of the marketing department of his company and asked his soul.
It's the end of the year.
Tianhu’s games also have a lot of action.
But they spent so much money, and in the end the discussion of related games was not even half, or even one-third, of Linmu Studio...
What a hell!
The head of the marketing department standing opposite Li Guangsheng hesitated to speak.
"Say." Li Guangsheng glanced at him.
After the person in charge of the marketing department was silent for a while, he said: "Actually, we have worked very hard."
"Then why is this happening?"
"Because they are Linmu Studio."
"..."
Li Guangsheng looked at the frustrated head of the marketing department and sighed: "You're fired."
…
the other side.
Peria Headquarters.
Mikio Kawa immediately received a detailed report on the Easter eggs in the promotional video.
This report was written by Hidekazu Hanzawa.
"It's 100% confirmed, they are making consoles, President."
Hanzawa Hidekazu bowed respectfully and then said.
"You really do everything you can."
Mikio Kawa looked at the screenshots of the controller in the report, and he never imagined that he could insert Easter eggs of the console into the E-Sports Festival promotional video...
And the effect is very good...
I really learned a lot.
"They're great."
Hanze Xiuhe responded.
At this time, you need to highlight the difficulty of your opponent, which means highlighting your own importance.
"okay."
Deputy Mikio He dropped the report in his hand and leaned back: "Now that it's confirmed, you can make a plan."
"Yes!" Banze Xiuhe bowed ninety degrees, and then asked: "Then... what is the plan?"
