The success of "Modern Scroll" this time did not surprise anyone.
After all, this game was unveiled at last year’s Carnival.
It was very stunning when it debuted, and all players were attracted by it.
During this period, three more promotional videos were released.
Moreover, this is the second time Linmu Studios has made an open world game after "The Legend of Zelda".
It can be said that the expectations of the players are fully met.
This situation.
Whether you are a player or a colleague, after watching the promotional video, combined with the ultra-high-standard announcement given by Linmu Studio before the game is released.
It's really hard for them to imagine that this game will fail.
compare to.
It's much easier to imagine this game being successful.
not to mention.
It wasn’t just Mou Feng who noticed Linmu Studio’s unusual speed of game launches during this period.
Many players have also noticed it.
With the rise of mobile terminals, Lin Yao, the head of Linmu Studio, has consciously weakened his influence. In addition, Linmu Studio has been launching games crazily without following the rules during this period...
It’s really hard not to think in the direction of ‘the final performance’.
And "Modern Scroll", which ends as the 'last performance', will fail...
That's too outrageous.
Players have played Linmu Studio’s games for so many years, and their colleagues have also been dealing with Linmu Studio for so many years.
Linmu Studio's most important game ultimately failed.
That is undoubtedly an insult to the players who cheered for games such as "Left 4 Dead", "Assassin's Creed", and "Titanfall" some time ago.
It is also an insult to colleagues who have been punished for so many years.
so.
"Modern Scrolls" will be successful and fun. This is basically the consensus in the gaming circle.
But... although the success of "Modern Scroll" is not unexpected.
But that doesn't mean there aren't any surprises in this game.
Or to be more precise, nothing exceeded expectations.
This game exceeds expectations in so many ways...
The first point is the gameplay of the game. For the price of one game, you can get the gameplay of ten games. This statement has become popular in the gaming circle.
After all, who doesn’t want to do all kinds of things in a game world that is infinitely close to reality?
Most games can't do this.
But modern reels can do it!
Whether it's casual golf or wild robbery, there are really too many things to play.
The second point is the size of the game. It can be said that this is the largest and most detailed game map that players in the world have ever seen...
It is also the most open game map.
Before the game was released, everyone had imagined how big Linmu Studio's second open world game would be.
They have already thought according to the limits of existing games.
But in the end I didn’t expect...it would be so outrageous.
The last point is the plot of the game "Modern Scrolls".
Logically speaking.
This game has the first two points, which are enough to make players linger in the game.
As long as the game plot is not too outrageous and can serve the function of making players familiar with the entire game.
At the beginning.
Many players who have just advanced the plot do think so. After all, they need a bicycle.
But as the plot progresses.
Many players have discovered that they were wrong, very wrong.
The game depicts a realistic picture of the underworld with flourishing flowers and magnificent waves.
Its depth is such that many domestic players can’t tell whether Linmu Studio is a domestic game company or not.
The three protagonists, including other key supporting characters, are really complete assholes.
This is also the first time that Linmu Studio has created characters so boldly.
But these bastards have brought players wave after wave of exhilarating experiences that are completely unimaginable in reality and are beyond the constraints of reality.
Jewelry store robbery, three people in a gang, flight accident, car overturn...
Until the final big vote.
Players can guarantee that no wonderful movie in reality can have so many thrilling plots!
More importantly, the actions of the protagonists are controlled by the players.
This sense of immersion and refreshment is simply invincible!
When players play, they feel as if they are in a carnival, a dream that they can never experience in reality.
And precisely because of this feeling, the protagonists' series of behaviors that transcend the constraints of reality do not cause players any discomfort.
Instead, players can go deep into the game, experience the joys, anger, loves, and fears of the three characters, put themselves into the role of the protagonists, and gradually understand what they do, and thus fall in love with the three different and distinct characters in the game.
Including a lunatic who might immediately call the police if encountered in real life.
Yes.
The character that most players like here is still the craziest Lao Cui.
This is enough to show how good the character creation of this game is.
The last option in the game is three endings.
It can be called a stroke of genius.
This directly brings together all the plots and puts the choice in the hands of the players.
And thanks to the huge player base.
Three endings.
There are players to choose from.
And players all have their reasons for choosing this way.
They can always find an ending that meets their expectations.
Whether it's killing Lao Cui, killing Di Shengta, or... the three brothers fight against everyone together.
Players can bring this absurd yet realistic dream to a perfect end.
…
But... I mean it's a perfect ending.
But relevant discussions are definitely indispensable.
After all, before the online mode was launched, there was no so-called official ending.
Of course, players can express their opinions and express their thoughts.
The days when the most people have completed the game.
The grand occasion at the forum can be said to be unprecedented.
This can be seen from the number of replies to Yang Wei’s post that day about being afraid of the future.
The main point of discussion among players is whether it is more reasonable to kill Lao Cui in the end or to have a happy ending.
As for the second ending, most players think it is unreasonable, and the least people discuss it.
There have been so many discussions among players, and players continue to talk about the adrenaline rush that the game brings to them, and the game has been well received in all aspects.
It also brings more attention and audience to this already outstanding game.
The heat keeps rising.
Sales have been soaring.
This of course brings some problems.
For example, some players prefer another game type, but because of its popularity, they purchased the game even though they have no interest in modern crime action-adventure themes.
Eventually some different voices emerged.
But this isn't the player's fault, nor is it the game's fault.
This is just like feelings, if it's inappropriate, it's inappropriate.
Whether you are desperately trying to prove to a person who doesn't like the game how fun it is, or desperately trying to prove to a person who likes it how fun the game is, it is not advisable.
If you press other people's heads and say you don't understand, you must make them admit that this game is fun. Or if you press others' heads and say you still don't understand, you must make others join you in calling this game rubbish.
All have problems.
but.
have to say.
The universality of "Modern Scroll" is really too strong.
Even if the game becomes so popular, it will explode overseas.
In the end there weren't many different voices.
What most players discuss is still the various details and plot of the game.
And game sales.
My colleagues didn’t even want to go see it.
Anyway, third-party agencies have a new statement every day...
According to the latest data provided by a third-party organization, sales have almost exceeded 20 million...
Twenty million.
This is not your own, it is data!
Just know that this game is very popular.
Watching too much will not do any good except making yourself uncomfortable.
at last.
The overwhelming discussion on "Modern Scrolls" lasted for more than half a month.
It wasn't until most players had roughly figured out the game that the problem subsided.
But even if it has subsided, the popularity of this game still makes all peers choose to avoid its edge.
certainly.
As the number of players who have mastered the game gradually increases, new discussions have emerged.
That is - the world built by this game, the map that made players forget to come back as soon as the game was released, seems to have a low utilization rate.
[The game is so fun! But as I make more and more money, I buy everything I can, and I always feel a little empty. It would be nice if there were other players to play with. 】
[Indeed, after finishing the plot and experiencing most of the gameplay, I felt like I didn’t know what to do. I could do whatever I wanted, but I was the only one in the world. 】
[So this is the world of rich people? The game is too real. 】
[Hahahaha, I just played, I don’t know what you think, but I feel so good now!]
【Indeed, the game is so fun!】
【……】
Related discussions.
Some players agree.
Of course, some players are opposed to it.
Because most players play games for different lengths of time.
The stages they are in are also different.
And at the same time.
Mou Feng has also figured out the game.
He has been playing this game all this time.
Not only has the main plot been completed, but even the side plots have been completed.
period.
He was amazed at the performance of the game countless times.
And after experiencing all the gameplay of the game.
In addition to feeling that everything is over, he can finally compete with Linmu Studio in the field of mobile games.
I also had the same thoughts as the players.
...somewhat empty.
However, a game worth 300 yuan can make me happy for a whole month, which is already outrageous.
So soon, he dispelled the sense of meaningless emptiness.
However, when he drove the sports car he purchased through the world in the game and once again visited this huge map that brought him countless surprises, a new idea came to him.
That is - this map... its utilization rate is really low.
He knows better than any player how much manpower and material resources are needed to create such a map.
However, the single-player plot does not actually allow players to go to many locations.
In most places on the game map, players are not forced to go there at all, and it is entirely up to the players to explore on their own.
But as a veteran producer, Mou Feng knows better than anyone how many players will do this without driving force...
Especially after the plot is all over and most of the gameplay has been figured out.
"It's impossible for Linmu Studio to create a world just for the sake of plot, right?"
Mou Feng drove his sports car up the mountain, then looked at everything around him, smiled, and said to himself: "There must be an online mode, such as supporting players to race cross-country together in the mountains. If the resources are ready, then it will
It’s an explosion…”
Talking and talking.
He suddenly stopped and showed a horrified expression.
etc.
No way……
The reason why Mou Feng talks about online mode is because "Modern Scrolls" only had a stand-alone version at the beginning and did not have an online mode.
And the reason why he stopped talking was because he thought of a possibility...
He didn't want to believe it.
But in early April, what was supposed to come came.
At the time when most players have figured out the game, the popularity of the game is slowly declining.
Linmu Studio has released two new promotional videos!
Officially announced.
"Modern Scrolls" editor is online!
"Modern Scrolls" online mode is online!
Accompanied by dynamic music.
The game city that players are already familiar with appears on the screen again...
The online mode of the game has officially unveiled its mystery.
And in this new West Coast world, a game world that can be played online.
Players can also do whatever they want.
Many offline characters will also make a grand appearance in the online mode, such as the strategist Lester in the offline mode.
When I saw this character.
The players now have the confidence in their hearts.
Because in the offline mode, all robberies are planned by this military advisor.
So isn’t the online mode...
But it's not over yet.
The four-minute promotional video is just the beginning.
According to the content disclosed in the promotional video.
The player will play the role of a foreigner arriving by plane.
And this outsider is very ambitious and came here just to make a name for himself.
Therefore, in the online mode, players can not only bring friends together to rob banks, rob shops, gather people to form gangs...
You can also accept employment just like the offline mode, and complete various tasks alone or with friends...
Of course, in addition to these less healthy contents, there are also healthy contents.
For example, skydiving, playing golf, cross country...
After players complete the task of making money, there will also be a place for consumption in the online mode.
Such as getting a haircut, buying clothes, buying a car, buying a gun, or even buying a luxurious high-rise apartment.
The most important thing is... players can purchase fighter jets and aircraft online!
The functions of modified cars will also be fully integrated online.
Because of the online mode, the gameplay of racing with other players will be added!
According to the content disclosed in the promotional video, racing is not limited to the ground. Players can also drive flying vehicles to race in the air, and drive sea motorcycles to race on the sea...
And the end of the promotional video.
Linmu Studio has also released the most important feature. In the online mode, players will be able to use the self-made play function!
This means that players will be able to customize the track and related competitive maps...
In short.
A promotional video.
Players are dazzled by the sight.
I can't tell at all...how many ways to play online.
Crime? Yes! Leisure? Yes! Racing? Yes! Operations? Yes! You can also make your own map...
Players whose original enthusiasm for the game has inevitably waned.
That night.
On the night when the online promotional video for "Modern Scrolls" was released, I was as excited as if the game had just been released...
Fighting with others is endless fun.
This sentence is really not just talk.
Why do players feel empty after playing offline mode to a certain point?
It is because they know very well that they are the only real person in the whole world.
No matter how much money you make or how well you play, it’s just for your own entertainment.
There is no denying that some players just like this feeling of loneliness.
But most players still prefer to play with other players online.
The boundaries between stand-alone and online games have been blurred again and again, precisely because players really like to fight with others...
The online mode promotional video of "Modern Scrolls" can be said to give full play to the characteristics of this game and satisfy all players' imaginations about the online mode of this game!
Synthesizer……
The offline mode of this game is a masterpiece.
As for the online mode, for players who have watched the promotional video, it is also the master of TM!
Awesome!!!
That night.
The players were so excited.
Then as we chatted, I felt pessimistic again.
It’s not that the online mode of “Modern Scrolls” shown in the promotional video is bad… but it’s great!
The online mode is not like the offline mode. The online mode can be continuously expanded and players will not get bored so easily.
So when this game was first released, the post that broke the number of replies on the forum saying "Electronic Yang Wei"... players felt that it was becoming more and more likely to happen, so they were very pessimistic.
Plus, it's already April.
immediately.
This year’s forest carnival is coming...
So the first thing to bear the brunt is Linmu Studio’s own activities...
Many players even began to tease Linmu Studio half-jokingly and half-seriously.
[What should I do! Lin Yao! After watching the online promotional video, I already feel like I won’t be moved by anything at the Forest Carnival. Lin Yao, you’ve done so many bad things, you won’t even get into trouble, right? [crying]]
【Who can show this to everyone if it is so fun! Why not put it after the Linmu Carnival? I, Yang Wei, are responsible for you! Linmu Studio!!!】
[It doesn’t matter, I feel like I won’t be surprised by anything at this year’s carnival... Lin Yao, what should I do? [crying] [crying] [crying]]
【……】
Linmu Studio.
As soon as Lin Yao released the online promotional video for "Modern Scroll", she went to the forum to take a look.
Then.
She saw the players crying like ghosts and wolves...
Looking at the grand occasion on the forum.
Lin Yao was silent for a moment, and then said, dumbfounded: "...crazy."
Recommend this book:
"Evil Girl Illustrated Book"
The red moon is in the sky, the fog is invading, and natural disasters have destroyed everything that mankind is proud of.
Lack of resources, human mutation, and the order and peace we had in the past have all become old history.
In the eighty-second year of the Red Moon, Lin Lan came to this world with a Red Moon Illustrated Book and became the chief of a small police station in the outer city that was abandoned by the people in the inner city, a... female police chief.
Well, there is actually nothing wrong with being a woman. Anyway, she didn't expect that she would have a beautiful love since she was single.
But... there are so many vicious criminals waiting for me to conquer them, hey! Are you sure this is serious?
Looking at the beautiful eyes looking at her in front of them, their eyes were full of expectations for Lin Lan.
Lin Lan, who was full of her expectations, sighed, stood on the steps and waved her hand: "In that case, then I will be the queen."
This is a story about a district police chief who leads a group of prisoners towards a better life...
