There's really something wrong with this online game plan

Chapter 523 Too much energy to suppress the scene!
Season mode in Diablo.

In fact, in essence, it is a way to encourage players to upgrade in competitions, to brush equipment and 'pvp' in competitions.

This is a very good approach at the beginning of the game life cycle.

As the saying goes, fighting with others is a lot of fun.

Although it is just a ranking, it is precisely the ranking that is more attractive to players.

Because Diablo just came out.

Players don't have any experience, and even a complete set of mature 'build' players haven't appeared yet.

All props, equipment, and content in the game are interesting and unknown to players.

At the same time, there are still many unknown equipment and gameplay in the game waiting for them to explore.

They are full of enthusiasm and are very interested in everything about the game.

And this desire to explore will continue until the 150th floor of the Great Secret Realm is breached, all equipment values ​​are revealed, and all game content is exhausted.

After most players are familiar with the skills of those professions and those mature builds.

It will slowly move towards the fastest way to shape the 'game tool man'.

Then the sense of exploration will decrease, and as another 'game tool man' takes shape, most players will gradually lose the fun.

In the end, Diablo will be just like a normal single-player game.

The number of people online is slowly declining.

In the end, it became an old game in the mouth of all players...

And this process is actually quite fast.

After all, when players are interested in a game, their subjective initiative will be very strong...

Otherwise, the player would not have the title of the fourth natural disaster in some works.

The season mode is actually a means of using the limited-time season theme to allow players to start over and reactivate their desire to explore.

To put it bluntly, it is to use the idea of ​​online games to operate stand-alone games, and use the season of gameplay to make up for the defect that most players stop playing after the equipment is almost complete, so that players can continue to stay in the game!

This scheme has many advantages, but also disadvantages.

That is, with the increase of seasons, the game release cycle is lengthened, and the relevant information increases.

Every player will become a top player, and they will no longer carefully read the description of each equipment that drops, and will not be excited by the drop of legendary equipment.Because they are familiar with the equipment. For example, in Lin Yao's previous life, if she dropped a ring, except for Huajie and a few other useful ones, the players almost don't even have to think about it, just disassemble it.

Because the game has been released for a long time.

All players, except for the freshness of the new gameplay brought by the season theme, basically know how to play, and go straight to the goal as soon as they enter the game, and then at a certain moment.

Either a set of builds has been constructed, or the 150th floor of the Great Secret Realm has been reached, or the peak level has reached a certain value.

Players get tired and AFK (hands off the keyboard).

Then after many seasons of repetition, the number of players will start to shrink.

This is the problem.

Because "Diablo" itself is not an online game, there is only one storyline.

Any game has a life cycle.

There are online games.

Let alone such a stand-alone game.

You can't expect a game that's been out for ten years to be as popular as it was when it was first released.

"Diablo" is already very powerful, and the season mode has been suspended for a long time.

In Lin Yao's previous life, there were very few similar games. After ten years, she can still maintain a considerable vitality and the number of players. A large part of the credit for this comes from the season mode.

This is why Lin Yao introduced the season mode here.

But Lin Yao will not continue this season mode that only provides season themes. He plans to add some new maps and new storylines every few seasons.

As for how far she can go, she doesn't know.

I can only do it first.

But in the early stage of the game, she doesn't plan to do more, because the content of the game itself is already enough, and the season mode is indeed a surprise for players.

Not only will this gameplay not cause problems in the early stage, but players will be more subjectively motivated by being confused by the new content and new gameplay...

After all, the game has just been released, and it has only been released for more than a day.

The first player to clear the level will appear.

Even the full-level people haven't come out yet.

Everything is new to them.

And the attraction for players to be on the leaderboard and become the No. 1 professional...is too strong.

Just imagine.

A player who has never been in contact with "Diablo" is addicted to the plot and the seemingly magical gameplay. Suddenly the plot is over, but the game tells you.

It's not over yet.

Next, you are going to break through the Great Secret Realm!
The entire Great Secret Realm has 150 floors!At the same time, there are a series of new ways to play, a series of new equipment, and new maps to be unlocked!Leaderboards!A new way of playing like a season theme!
Also!

The season is also linked with "World of Warcraft"!

Although I don't know how to connect.

But the players who have already cleared the storyline stood up when they saw the announcement.

And the players who are going through the plot and the players who are very interested in the game are also starting to look forward to it.

Because...it's too exciting!
……

Pengcheng.

The first day Feng Kangshun opened the game.

Shout out to be fooled directly...

But after shouting that he was fooled, that night, he swiped until three o'clock in the morning...

On the second day, he even violated his weekend biological clock, got up early, and after brushing his teeth, he directly turned on the computer screen.

He didn't turn off the phone yesterday.

This game is really poisonous!

Feng Kangshun sighed and called a nearby takeaway.

Then I went on to play the fourth act of "Diablo".

Fucking Diablo!
To avenge Leah!
Before bed last night.

Feng Kangshun also went to the forum to browse around, and saw the post with new content after customs clearance.

But he doesn't like to be spoiled when playing games, so he didn't click on it to read carefully, he planned to explore slowly by himself...

Moreover, compared to the content after customs clearance, he cares more about the current plot and process.

In addition, his long game experience told him.

After the game process is over, no matter how you change it, the experience will be greatly reduced...

Even meat pigeons, no matter how changeable.

It can't change the fact that the player has already played it once, and the fun is greatly reduced.

So he didn't take the content of the game too seriously.

soon.

The room fell silent.

Feng Kangshun, who had a rare weekend break, swiped all the way, then had breakfast and lunch in front of the computer... and finally cleared the level.

He quickly finished the fourth act.

But he didn't expect that defeating Diablo was not the end.

There is also a dead angel Malthael behind.

In the end, after dying three times, he finally defeated the oppressive Reaper of Souls, Malthael, the Archangel of the Dead.

Watch Death Scythe die.

Feng Kangshun breathed a sigh of relief.

finally died.

This final boss is really strong, considering his current equipment.

Although Feng Kangshun didn't want to admit it, he was indeed handsome and strong!

In the end, the boss died, and the CG was played immediately.

The content is vulgar.

It is nothing more than Nephalem, the barbarian played by Feng Kangshun, who successfully overthrew the final boss and saved all mankind.

But suddenly.

In the second half of the CG, the painting style changed.

It seems to imply that nephalem will also be blackened.

In the end, the game came to an end amidst these blank spaces.

The CG is played.

The game prompts the player to continue playing the current character, or create an adventure mode and start over.

"Fuck, I hate this kind of blank space the most. There will be no new plots in the future, and you still have to hang on to me... boring!"

When Feng Kangshun saw the final game prompt, he was a little worried about gains and losses.

It's like watching a movie and reading a novel.

Many people will indeed suffer from gains and losses.

Because the story is over.

And Feng Kangshun belongs to this kind of people.

Because he was worried about gains and losses, he even forgot that new content would be unlocked after clearing the follow-up game.

Just sighing that the story is over.

But soon.

As he chooses to continue playing his current role.

Return to the camp in Act V.

His mentality has quietly changed...

Because there were several new NPCs in the camp, he didn't notice some new NPCs, but it was impossible for him not to notice the most conspicuous Kule.

He stood in the most conspicuous position.

"Isn't this b dead?"

Seeing the new NPC, Feng Kangshun recovered from the state of worrying about gains and losses, and came to the character who had appeared in the plot before.

Click on the conversation.

In the dialogue of "Ancient Artifact", the other party mentioned a new map - the ruins of Sescheron.

Feng Kangshun was convinced that this map did not appear in the previous plot.

He opened the world map, rummaged for a while, and soon found a new map.

then.

He finally remembered that new content would be unlocked after clearing the game, and managed to survive, although he didn't expect much.

Because of the same sentence, he has cleared the game...

soon.

With the idea of ​​taking a look, Feng Kangshun ran to the ruins of Sescheron. After wandering around the ridiculously large map, he finally found the Temple of the Elders and the artifact that the NPC was talking about.

However, nothing happened at the time.

until returning to camp.

Talking to that new NPC again, Feng Kangshun realized what he got.

"Extract power!?"

Seeing the introduction of the first function of the artifact Kanai's Cube, Feng Kangshun was not calm.

The first function of Kanai's Cube is to extract the special effects of legendary equipment!

And he happened to have a piece of equipment, because of the low level, although the special effect was good, but because of the attribute problem, he threw it into the warehouse.

So when he saw the first function of Kanai's Magic Box, he immediately ran to the warehouse, took out the 'Mr. Yang's magic pants', extracted the special effects on it, and put it on.

Look at the display on the power interface that 'Your energy generation speed and damage dealt are increased by 25% when moving, and decreased by (20-25)% when standing still'.

Feng Kangshun was excited.

shit.

Good stuff!

Does not occupy the equipment grid, but has special effects!

He took a closer look at the other functions on Kanai's Magic Box, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

Then, he ran the camp again.

Found several new NPCs.

Change equipment, secret realm, offer rewards...

Feng Kangshun tried them all, and even cleared the small secret realm once.

Come out from a small secret place.

Feng Kangshun looked at the legendary equipment and the key to the Great Secret Realm.

I finally understand why the player who was the first to clear the story last night was so excited...

This TM is game over!
This is obviously the beginning of the game!
Especially after reading the big and small Rifts and the season mode announcements pushed by the game!
He is even more convinced!
He used the key of the Great Secret Realm to open the Great Secret Realm on the first floor.

Then stand at the starting point of the Great Rift map.

After being silent for a while, excitement appeared on his face, and he said:
"Fuck, this is too exciting!!!!"

soon.

He can't even care about the game.

Switched back to the desktop directly, ran to the forum, and wanted to share what I saw.

But open the forum.

He found himself late.

As early as after the forest wood studio released the announcement.

The players in the entire forum are all boiling...

Even if there is no beautiful picture of Lin Yao this time, the players are willing to discuss it.

Because the content after the passage of "Diablo" is too unexpected!
And as more and more players cleared the level, more and more players participated in the discussion...

"Damn it! A road that has never been imagined! Linmu Studio is really always surprising people! It starts after clearing the level! Awesome!"

"This is the first time I played a game like this. Not only did I not worry about gains and losses after clearing the plot, but it made me miss the liver even more..."

"I heard that the first player who cleared the level couldn't make it to the 15th floor of the Great Secret Realm. He died [-] times in [-] minutes, and all his equipment was rotten! Hahahaha [laughs]."

"I've seen it too! It doesn't look good in the follow-up! You need to match the equipment, power and skills! I'm playing a mage. Do you have any good solutions? What equipment can enhance the disintegration ray? Post a picture Please, please!"

"The one who died thirty times is the magician... Although the magician is good at shooting early, it seems that it is not suitable for rushing, everyone pay attention!"

"Is there a boss who can share the equipment and skills of the magician? Please! I really like magicians!"

"I found a routine! It's very fast to clear the small secret realm, you can clear it once in 9 minutes! The core equipment is Yang's recurve bow..."

"Bosses, how should the legendary gems be matched?"

"Ancient equipment! Ancient equipment will drop after clearing the level! Damn! I'm so excited! The equipment is really rich! I want to assemble a set of the strongest suit!"

"Come on season mode! I want to reach the top! I want the pet linked with "World of Warcraft"!"

"Big brothers... I have entered a place with a different style of painting! Look!"

"Fuck, is there a hidden map in the game? How to get into the rainbow map? Are there any special props?"

"..."

the whole forum.

Related posts are everywhere.

Some players express their excitement, while others have already started discussing equipment and how to level up with their colleagues.

Of course, there are also some players who have dug up more content of the game.

In short.

Very lively.

Feng Kangshun was also reading the post, and the more he read it, the more excited he became, there was so much new content!In the end, he turned to a post introducing the barbarian's early equipment, and couldn't hold back.

Switch directly back to the game!Prepare to scan the small secret realm thirty times first!
Soon, colorful lights were emitted from the screen, reflecting on Feng Kangshun's face.

And he looked excited and full of anticipation...

have to say.

This time, "Diablo" not only surprises the players with the game style, but also surprises the players at the gameplay level...

Very big surprise!

of course.

For many colleagues, this is a shock...

Lin Yao knew the flaws of the season mode.

After all, she has experienced the changes of "Diablo 3" for ten years.

But many colleagues do not know.

As soon as this season mode comes out, anyone who has played "Diablo" and is a little smarter will know how powerful it is!
before.

No matter how popular Linmu Studio's stand-alone game is, its popularity is limited for a limited time. The game will gradually lose most of its popularity over time.

But this time "Diablo" made the colleagues have a completely opposite feeling... Linmu Studio not only left enough play space after clearing the level of the game, but also matched the season mode.

What's even more outrageous is that they are also promoting World of Warcraft in Diablo...

Is this meant to hold onto the player in a stand-alone game like an online game?
In fact, I don't blame Lin Yao's colleagues for having such thoughts, because it is really too scary.

sky fox.

Mou Feng started shouting 'Ah Guang, cheer up' again...

And the two companies behind Game Player contacted Linmu Studio, which is no longer a hint.

have to say.

Since the carnival, Linmu Studio has indeed left a psychological shadow on many colleagues.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know.

Linmu Studio will release games in the future...

How could you break your own path...

They just scare themselves.

but.

Anyway.

Diablo succeeded.

Still a big success!
……

"How about it! Has the sales of "Diablo" exceeded 700 million?"

Forest studio.

Lin Yao looked at Mu Wanqing with anticipation.

Man Wanqing had a strange expression on her face.

Because this is the first time Lin Yao pays so much attention to the sales of games.

In the past, she was basically sure that after the game became popular, she stopped paying attention to it in the follow-up.

So she finds it weird.

but.

Mu Wanqing looked at her hands propped on the table, her body was leaning forward, her high ponytail was gently swaying, her fair and pretty round oval face was full of a young girl who was eager for knowledge.

I don't think this is a bad thing...

"Come on, this time, because the carnival and announcements have invested enough, and the game itself has attracted enough attention, the pre-sale sales are very good. After the announcement of the season mode, there will be more interested players. It will be sooner or later that the sales will exceed 700 million. but not so fast."

Mu Wanqing explained a few words, and then said: "It may take two days."

"Oh……"

Lin Yao was slightly disappointed when she heard this, she stopped supporting the table, and sat back on the chair directly, then shook her high ponytail sullenly.

Mu Wanqing: "..."

If I knew it earlier, I would stop talking.

Or Lin Yao, who just now has a face full of curiosity, and if she has a tail, she might be more cute.

Of course, she dared not say this directly.

Lin Yao was about to explode when she heard the tail.

And in fact.

Lin Yao would indeed, but she couldn't hear Mu Wanqing's inner voice, so she didn't care.

After flicking ponytail for a while in depression, Lin Yao cheered up again.

Forget it, it's not too bad for those few days.

"How is the progress of the mobile phone project?" Lin Yao asked again.

"Well... I am preparing for the stacking of the new motherboard, and the new person in charge of UMedia has already mobilized the appearance design department and the structural design department."

Mu Wanqing flipped through the report in her hand and replied.

The so-called stacking is actually equivalent to the process of assembly.

Mobile phones from design to mass production.

The process is quite troublesome.

But... For other manufacturers, it is not troublesome for Linmu Studio, because Lin Yao gave a very detailed plan, not to mention the shape of the mobile phone, even if the screen, microphone, camera, etc. are fixed Structural schemes are all above.

If you are really reckless, you can actually negotiate with the supplier directly, and then go directly to trial production!
but.

Lin Yao did not do this, physical products are not games.

Games are tested before they are released.

Not to mention cell phones.

So she planned to let Youmedia's shape design department and structure design department go through the design plan given by the system, and then do a collective structure review.

This can not only provide engineers with a learning opportunity, but also give them a clear enough understanding of the mobile phones that will be produced next.

Otherwise, if there is a problem in mass production, and there is no one to solve the problem, it would be too bad.

The system has given a plan, which has saved a lot of time, so don't waste this time.

"Okay, then I'll go and have a look."

Lin Yao thought for a while, "Diablo" has now been successfully released, and achieved very good results.

I guess it will be the same whether I stare or not.

As for "World of Warcraft", Lei Hongguang cautiously asked to open the second inner side and test it again, so she didn't have to worry about this aspect.

For the mobile game department, the meeting is tomorrow.

I seem to have nothing to do today.

Think of this.

Lin Yao stood up straight away: "Forget it! I'll go over now, lest Uncle Zhang can't hold back... Miss Mu, I'm leaving."

After the formal acquisition is completed.

All the top executives of YouMedia were fired by Lin Yao...

It's not that they don't miss old feelings, the main thing is that they can toss the best media that could be ranked in the top five before to the bottom, which is really amazing... amazing in every sense.

Lin Yao doesn't need this kind of high-level executive who only knows about factional disputes.

So it was all fried.

And these people, how should I put it, although they don't have the ability to run the company, they are very capable of making trouble.

After the notice went down, they took away many of their direct employees.

It looks like you media don't want to make a good life for yourself, so you will empty out you media.

Lin Yao didn't have time before, and "Diablo" was more important, so she let her sister and Lin Mu Financial Control handle it.

At present, Zhang Youjie is in control of You Media, and the situation has stabilized, but Lin Yao is still a little worried.

So going to have a look.

"Manager Zhang can't hold back anymore, don't tell me you can hold back the situation..."

Mu Wanqing heard Lin Yao's words, before she had time to object, a gust of fragrant wind blew, and Lin Yao ran behind her.

She froze for a moment, then quickly reached out and grabbed Lin Yao's high ponytail.

Somewhat funny.

"It hurts, hurts... let go! Why can't it work, do you have any misunderstandings about me?"

Lin Yao stopped immediately after being pulled by her ponytail.

She turned her head and stared at Mu Wanqing.

"There is no misunderstanding."

Mu Wanqing let go of Lin Yao's high ponytail, and looked at the perfect girl standing in front of her, who seemed to be adored by heaven and earth, she really couldn't imagine how she would control the place...

You said that it is possible to mobilize the subjective initiative of employees...

"It has stabilized over there. Manager Zhang has already told me, don't worry, if you really want to go, then I will go with you."

Mu Wanqing smiled, then came to Lin Yao's side, gently took her arm: "Let's go."
