"A new version, a new limited-time event - 'Visitors from afar' is coming! Because the game organizers have brought some new friends who do not belong to this world... Starting from April 23, players will be forced to face a brand new
challenge.
After the new version is launched, the game will add two limited-time independent dungeons - "The Devil's Hour" and "The Angel's Arrival". The independent dungeons will be guarded by [Contractor Kamimoto Kazuo] and [Judge Dark Carving] respectively.
, players will face these two powerful foreign visitors.
In the new dungeon, there will be four BOSSs with completely different characteristics and fighting styles, and new monster types. Together, they will bring you an interesting and in-depth action experience. The monsters will launch the most violent and cunning attacks on you.
And the battle with powerful boss-level enemies will be the ultimate test of your strategy, reaction and determination!"
…
"The new card pool 'Lease Agreement' is coming! The limited-time independent copy "The Demonic Hour" will be opened after any player has officially cleared it once.
We must send our companions back no matter what! Even if what is left is an afterimage! The limited-time five-star characters [Contractor Kamimoto Kazuo] and [Death God Ishii Sahime] have an increased probability! Four-star characters..."
“The new card pool ‘Hate of Evil’ is coming! The limited-time independent copy ‘Angel Has Fallen’ will be opened after any player has officially cleared it once.
The evil has not been eliminated! Justice will not fall! The probability of limited-time five-star characters [Judge·Dark Carving] and [Secretary Makoto Sakamoto] is up! Four-star characters..."
"..."
The official website of "The Day of Reincarnation" released the PV.
Half an hour later.
The announcement of the new version is out.
Then, not long after the announcement was sent out, it was transferred to the ‘Game Circle’ and was immediately pinned to the top.
After Zhu Gong watched the PV, he started brushing the posts with high intensity.
Then, he just finished reading a post analyzing the new version, exited, and saw the pinned announcement.
Click in now.
After more than ten minutes, Zhu Gong finished reading the announcement.
And his sense of anticipation has reached its peak!
Because according to the announcement, it can be seen that the promotional video of the linkage event is not just a simple announcement.
This is still the beginning of the plot! Looking at the description, there are two independent copies, which should be the story that happened after the promotional video.
The card pool is the follow-up to the copy, which can also be seen from the description.
But what surprised Zhu Gong the most was Linmu Studio’s restoration of comic characters.
"Dark Carving" is a young boy's hot-blooded comic. If you say the plot is old-fashioned, it is indeed quite old-fashioned.
But this comic has been serialized for seven years and has become a top comic, which is definitely something special.
The author's characterization of the characters and the textured pictures are two of the most outstanding features of this comic.
As for the linkage between "The Day of Samsara" and the comic this time, Linmu Studio has really followed the character settings of the original work from the PV to the announcement of the new version.
Even the description of the card pool is what the two protagonists would say!
Anyone who has read the comics can see it!
In addition, Linmu Studio also arranged special copies and separate story lines for comic characters.
This is really great!
As for the character design style.
Of course there are differences from the comics, but overall the style is closer to the style of the game.
But the charm of the characters is still retained, and it has a unique flavor.
Full of sincerity.
The only feeling I have is that it is full of sincerity!
Zhu Gong has been reading the comics for almost four years and really likes this work.
When he first saw his favorite comic character appearing in the game, he was really shocked, and even felt like he was opening up a new world.
After he recovered and saw this announcement, he felt even more surrounded by a huge sense of happiness.
What other gaming activity can be more enjoyable than seeing characters from your favorite works in games?
Zhu Gong thought as he scrolled down and looked at the comment area.
"I really know how to play! Independent copy! Dual card pool! I really want to say that Lin Yao wants to cheat me out of money again, but I really can't say it! I never thought that one day I would be able to collect "Darkness" in the game.
The characters in "Carve" are really a new way of playing that I have never seen before!"
"Ah... I'm really looking forward to it. It seems that the independent copy will tell the story of the four protagonists of "Dark Carving" coming to a different world. How will Linmu Studio interpret it [excited]."
"It's really great that the game can even feature the heroine card of "Dark Carving"! I really like this big sister of "Dark Carving"! I will save crystals starting from today! When the new version is launched, I will
It’s going to explode!”
"Speaking of which, as a commander, I collect comic heroines. Is that considered a great comic hero [dog head]?"
"You're awesome, this isn't even the main story, and haven't you seen the description of the card pool? 'Even if it's just an afterimage', obviously this kind of activity won't last long. Of course, you have to be able to appear in the main comic,
Even so."
"I am also awesome at Afterimage! As a commander, I will beat the male protagonist, and then I will be awesome at the heroine of "Dark Carving", so that the male protagonist will also become my collection and become my wings! [Dog Head]"
"F*ck! What a pervert upstairs! There are so many commanders, why are you so perverted? Think about it. I'm different. I asked all the male characters to get out of my team. I don't need male characters in my harem group.
, they will never think of it in this life...well, unless they are very strong [dog head]."
"Every time everyone thinks that's all, Linmu Studio can always come up with something new for everyone... Comic characters can be added to the card pool and become players' collections. This idea is really awesome!"
"You think Linmu Studio is joking with you!"
"..."
Below the post.
There is anything to say.
Character drawings, independent copies, perverted remarks, preparations before the new version is launched...
Every time Zhu Gong turned over a page, the number of remaining pages at the bottom of the page would increase by more than ten pages.
Wait until he sees the third page.
The number of remaining pages has reached 99.
He returned to the popular comments on the first page, then liked the comment that said he wanted to beat the male protagonist and let him become his wings, and then exited the post that reposted the announcement of the new version.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Continue.
Zhu Gong walked around for a while.
Throughout the circle, posts related to the new version are still increasing.
The second wave of posts is here.
The first wave was when the promotional video for the new version was just released, and countless players came in and went crazy.
In the second wave, players all understood what the linkage between comics and games meant, and began to discuss it crazily...
Zhu Gong looked at it and clicked on a post again.
The post is very simple - [Ahhh, awesome!]
Posts like this are quite common.
But Gong Zhu felt that the avatars of the posters seemed similar.
So I went in specifically to take a look.
really……
This guy just replied to a post this morning.
It was the post Zhu Gong read earlier...
The reply to his last post was also very simple. He said that he had been exposed to too many characters in a short period of time and had reached a sage state. He was no longer looking forward to the new version of "The Day of Samsara".
Then, talk about wise men in the morning.
Shouting awesome at night...
Zhu Gong glanced at the post for the last time, then raised his head and shook his head in amusement.
As a person who has experienced it, he clearly remembers the attitude of the players when facing the new version in the morning. At that time, the reply saying that he had entered the sage state received the most likes!
but now.
The entire circle was discussing the new version... In fact, he was the same at that time and felt that he was a sage.
But at this moment, he couldn't wait to jump to the 23rd when the version was launched...
All I can say is that it is indeed Linmu Studio...
Zhu Gong put down his cell phone and sighed.
And at the same time.
The screen outside Linmu Studio's headquarters... was lit up.
The main view of the new version of "The Day of Reincarnation" appears above.
And standing in the C position are the four five-star characters from "Dark Carving".
As soon as the huge advertisement went online, it immediately attracted countless attention.
…
the next day.
The screen outside Linmu Studio's headquarters is still on.
And the news that the characters from the famous comic book will log into "The Day of Samsara", after a night of fermentation, is like a wave, and it has begun to sweep the entire gaming circle...
In fact, as soon as the game was announced last night, it already caused quite a stir.
Well-known game media people immediately spoke out, and they were all saying shit.
But the most popular mobile game recently has always been "Dark Night Walk". Tianhu has been marketing this game for so long, with 500 million and exquisite manuscripts every day.
to be honest.
Players are also somewhat immune.
So last night was fine.
But the next day, after fermentation, and the advertising effect of lighting up the screen outside the Linmu Studio headquarters began to appear, the situation was different...
Sky Fox.
Li Guangsheng came to the company and saw a confusing scene as soon as he entered the floor where his office was located.
Most of the staff of the "Dark Night Walk" project team gathered in a circle, all looking at the screen in front of the project manager, breathing rapidly.
"What the hell!? This is okay!?"
Vaguely.
Mou Feng seemed to hear the voices coming from over there.
He frowned, walked over curiously, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Last night he had been thinking about the details of the game "Dark Night Walk" and did not pay attention to social media or "The Day of Samsara".
He has maintained this pace since the project was launched.
Hear what Mou Feng said.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at him.
But most of the staff hesitated to speak and did not speak.
Mou Feng was even stranger.
Finally, it was the project manager who said, "Director, you'd better take a look for yourself."
After Mou Feng heard this, he walked forward directly and other staff members made way.
He successfully walked behind the project manager, then frowned and bent down to look at the screen.
[The new card game "The Day of Return" will be linked with the famous comic "Dark Carving"!]
Mou Feng was stunned when he saw this title.
Then he swept his peripheral vision downwards.
After briefly reading the article.
For a moment, there was a buzzing sound, and his mind went blank.
But only for a moment.
After noticing the staff around him, Mou Feng recovered immediately.
"It's really amazing... This is Linmu Studio. It comes up with something new every time, so you guys need to work hard."
Mou Feng straightened up, generously acknowledged the other party's excellence, and then continued: "Our game hasn't been made yet, so it can't affect us. Don't be so sad. We should be happy. Linmu Studio once again showed us
A new way of thinking about activities.”
Mou Feng is very calm.
See the look on his face.
Maybe it's infected.
The staff, who originally thought the sky was about to fall, breathed a sigh of relief.
Mou Feng still maintained a calm expression, lowered his head and chatted with the project manager for a few words, and then went to his office.
Close the door.
Mou Feng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He slowly put down the computer, then sat on the chair, raised his hand, and slapped himself on the forehead.
"——This is all right!?"
Mou Feng shouted loudly.
Finally, he vented his inner shock.
WTF, WTF, WTF!!
Can you still play like this?
Just outside, he almost couldn't hold himself tight.
It's so outrageous.
suddenly.
He thought of something, and immediately unzipped his computer bag, took out his laptop, then opened the official website of "The Day of Samsara", found their new version update announcement, and read it carefully.
After a long time.
Mou Feng finally raised his head.
He looked at the screen of his laptop, and after sitting blankly for a while, he suddenly smiled, mixed with a little bitterness and relief...
"Mou Feng, have you seen it!?"
At this moment, the office door was violently pushed open, and Li Guangsheng barged in.
As soon as he saw Mou Feng, he immediately yelled.
"I saw it." Mou Feng looked at Li Guangsheng and replied calmly, then continued: "As expected of Linmu Studio, every time when others think it is just like that, it comes up with something new, character linkage...
…It’s really amazing.”
"Is now the time to talk about this?"
Li Guangsheng was almost furious. Seeing how calm Mou Feng was, he became even more anxious.
"Don't worry, our mobile games will not be affected. Rather, this is a good thing. As long as we can ensure the quality, the more popular "The Day of Samsara" is, the more attention our mobile games will receive."
Mou Feng calmly explained: "So rest assured, the 500 million investment will definitely not make a loss. This type of market is far from saturated. In addition, how much do you think Linmu Studio will pay for negotiating the copyright of such a top comic? Since they
Being willing to continue to invest heavily in games also proves how profitable this type of game is..."
Seeing Mou Feng's calm expression.
Hear his explanation.
Li Guangsheng finally calmed down.
……yes!
"It's not Tianhu after all."
the other side.
Mou Feng saw that Li Guangsheng had calmed down, and then looked at the screen again, looking at the announcement of the new version of "The Day of Samsara", he smiled again and shook his head, saying to himself: "It will not remain the same, and it will not wait passively, no matter what
No matter how the external environment changes, no matter what competitors do, they will come up with new things.
I thought I had figured out the form of a card drawing game, but here comes another one that is linked to a comic book... It really belongs to you."
"Mou Feng?" Li Guangsheng seemed to realize something.
"It's nothing, it's just that the little ambition in my heart has been extinguished. This is really outrageous..."
Mou Feng shook his head slightly, then looked at the announcement on the screen, sighed, and was really convinced.
Forget about new games.
Forget about the payment system.
But now, even if the existing game is updated, you can still enjoy the game!
The card drawing game actually has this kind of gameplay!
Damn it, how many wonderful ideas does Linmu Studio have?
I still want to be side by side, but that’s a waste!
Not to mention side by side.
After the linkage event comes out, it is not certain whether Tianhu Mobile Game can compete with them...
etc.
Linked?
Mou Feng suddenly frowned, thinking of something. After thinking for a while, he slowly raised his head, looked at Li Guangsheng, and said kindly: "Guangsheng, what I said at the beginning was a bit exaggerated, maybe 500 million, it may not be enough...
…”
Li Guangsheng: "..."
He turned and left.
…
【New activities in "The Day of Reincarnation"! 】
["Dark Carving" linkage game, readers who like the work can even control comic characters now! 】
[Promotional picture of the linkage event lights up outside the Linmu Studio headquarters!]
at the same time.
News related to the linkage gameplay of "The Day of Samsara" began to bombard the player circle on a large scale...
Yes, this time it’s Lin Mu Studio’s turn for “The Day of Reincarnation”.
And after a night of preparation.
The bonuses of "Dark Carving" began to gradually appear.
After all, it is a head comic, and it has a very high influence not only in Japan, but also in China.
With so many years of serialization, there are really countless potential readers.
And "The Day of Reincarnation" was already very popular, and it even broke through the charts at the end of the year.
Adding these two works together is not just as simple as one plus one.
Many anime-related bloggers have even started to advertise "The Day of Samsara" for free.
After all, this is also related to comics, right?
And many comic readers who didn't even play "The Day of Samsara" began to come here because of its reputation.
Mainly because the PV quality is so excellent.
Although the main body is still the original character of the game.
But in the end, the comic characters appeared, and the quality of both the performances and the drawings were extremely high.
Even the pickiest comics reader would have a hard time finding fault with it.
And such an opportunity to collect favorite characters is really too tempting for many loyal comic readers.
soon.
"The Day of Reincarnation" began to spread from one circle to another.
And what kind of game is "The Day of Reincarnation"?
Two-dimensional card drawing...
Readers in the comic circle are originally potential players.
In fact, most of the players who can play "The Day of Samsara" are old two-dimensional people...
But breaking the circle this time still has a strong positive effect.
Because this allows more potential players to choose to download the game.
And the third day after the new version of the game was released...
The circle-breaking phenomenon brought about by the linkage activities of "The Day of Samsara" has even begun to occur overseas, or to be more precise, in Japan.
Because the author of "Dark Carving", Nishio Seijun, posted a tweet on this day.
[, I am about to enter a different world [love]]
Tweet below.
It is the promotional video for the new version of "The Day of Reincarnation".
The comic "Dark Carving" is very well-known, and the author is certainly not an unknown person.
So this tweet just went out.
It immediately attracted a lot of replies from comic readers.
"What is this? Nishio-sensei?"
"I've seen this before. It's great. It sounds like we can play it here too."
"It's really good. This time it's no longer linked to coasters! Congratulations!"
“I just finished watching it, it’s very interesting!”
"I actually think the characters in it are more handsome than in the comics! Especially the secret engravings,"
"..."
The replies below this tweet were mainly from readers in Japan.
And these readers, whether they have heard of the game "Reincarnation Day" or not, are very satisfied with this promotional video.
soon.
Domestic players have also seen this tweet. The original author of the comic endorses it, which is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire.
The popularity of linkage activities has reached a new level!
And at the same time.
Japan.
A certain luxurious villa and studio in the port area...
Nishio Shengjun held his mobile phone and looked at the responses from readers below, feeling a little surprised.
This time he will tweet.
Mainly because of contract requirements.
He himself has actually never played the mobile game "The Day of Samsara".
After all, comics are serialized weekly, and just completing the weekly serialization is already very hard, and it is really difficult to find time to play games.
even.
He didn't even watch the promotional video, he just followed the magazine's request, added the video and posted it.
For him, this is just a normal business cooperation.
So he didn't expect it to be so good from readers.
"Is it really that good?"
With this idea in mind, Nishio Shengjun clicked on the promotional video.
This is the first time I watched the linkage introduction video.
In the beginning, he was relatively calm.
But when I saw the characters I wrote turned into three-dimensional paintings one by one and appeared on the screen.
He couldn't help but his eyes lit up!
"interesting!"
Watch the entire video.
Seijun Nishio gave his own evaluation.
The comics he draws are the most popular head works, and related linkages are definitely indispensable.
But this was the first time he had seen such quality linkage.
Obviously the character styles are different, but the charm is still there!
Even from a professional perspective, this is quite impressive!
this moment.
Nishio Shengjun suddenly became very interested in this game called "The Day of Samsara".
After all, I heard from the staff of the magazine that this company is also quite powerful in the field of games...
Maybe looking at the characters from different perspectives can bring you some inspiration?
Think of this.
Nishio Shengjun no longer hesitated, stood up and found his assistant.
"Nakai, have you heard of "The Day of Reincarnation"?"
…
That night.
Just when readers were still discussing the promotional tweet posted by Seijun Nishio in the morning.
Nishio Shengjun sent another tweet.
["The Day of Reincarnation" is very fun! The characters are all cute! Very interesting!!! [expression]]
This tweet is similar in style to the previous one.
But I don’t know why, but it always makes people feel that Nishio Seijun, who tweeted this time, seems to be more...excited.
It's not just Japanese readers who feel this way.
Domestic readers also feel this way.
but.
Comic readers did not think deeply about this, but instead made fun of the author of the head cartoon.
"It's really interesting and the characters are cute! Looking forward to the comic update next week!"
"What character do you like? Nishio-sensei."
"Haha, Nishio isn't playing games too, is he?"
"..."
In the comment area below, most readers are discussing the game.
now.
They haven't realized the seriousness of the problem...
April 15th. Tokyo, Minato-ku.
The editor who was in charge of docking during the serialization of "Dark Carving" came to the door of Nishio Shengjun's house as usual.
After tidying up his clothes, he gently pressed the doorbell.
The expression is calm.
The deadline is approaching.
Although Nishio Seijun still hasn’t sent this week’s manuscript.
But the editor responsible for communicating with Nishio Seijun did not panic at all.
Because Nishio Seijun is famous for his hard work.
I almost never took a few breaks.
Occasionally, for the sake of quality, I often revise my manuscript at the last minute.
But no matter what, the manuscript will definitely be handed in in the end.
Very stable.
So when he came here this time, it was just a routine confirmation.
Click——
It didn't take long.
The door to Nishio Shengjun's house opened.
He is one of Nishio Seijun's assistants.
"Hello, Mr. Nakai, do you need to revise the manuscript again this week? How is the progress? The deadline is coming soon, I will confirm it as a routine."
When the editor saw a familiar face, he immediately asked straight to the point.
"Forehead……"
The assistant standing at the entrance was a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong?"
The editor finally realized something was wrong when he saw the expression on Nishio Seijun's assistant.
"The teacher hasn't given us the manuscript yet." The assistant named Nakai scratched his head and finally told the truth.
"Ah? Is the teacher sick? Is it serious? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
The editor's expression changed instantly and he became nervous.
The manuscript was not even handed over to the assistant.
This is a big problem!
"Uh, no."
Seeing the nervous look on the editor's face, Nakai became even more embarrassed. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said: "The teacher seems to be playing a game..."
"...?"
The nervous expression on the editor's face suddenly solidified.
Then.
The next second.
"Eh!????"
…
April 18th.
The popular comic "Dark Carving" announced that it will be closed for one week.
This news was just released through the magazine.
The readers were all confused.
They are looking forward to the comic even more because of the "Day of Reincarnation" linkage event.
But there was a snap.
This week's update suddenly disappeared.
Just... very dry.
but.
The news given by the magazine was that the author was unwell.
Although the readers are very unhappy, there is nothing they can do about it.
I can only express my concern under the last tweet posted by Seijun Nishio.
Domestic readers also paid attention to it.
Say something like hoping for a speedy recovery.
But some readers fell into deep thought after seeing Nishio Seijun's last tweet saying that "The Day of Reincarnation" was really interesting.
I always feel like something is wrong.
But for a while.
I can't think of anything wrong.
until.
Three days later.
April 21st.
There are only two days left before the "Day of Samsara" linkage event goes online.
Xiwei Shengjun suddenly sent another tweet.
[Everyone, the 23rd is coming soon, can you give me another week to recover? 】
I don’t know what readers in Japan think when they see this tweet.
But domestic readers.
After seeing this tweet.
They all covered their foreheads and felt depressed.
