Chapter 56: New Game Preview!
Trantor: 549690339
That’s why there were so many new yersining online, yet “ze 3” still managed to maintain a 9-point rating.
Simply because these new yers basically had no energy for ying the game, and even had little understanding of the existence of the “RANK-Popr Game Rating List”.
Furthermore, they went in and yed for a while, and if they didn’t like it, they just refunded and left, without much loss. Comining online was enough to vent their frustration, so there was no need to go the extra mile and leave a bad review.
After all, they just didn’t like this genre of games and didn’t know where this game stood in terms of qualitypared to its peers.
Due to various factors, the score of “ze 3” remained high on the first day.
But on the second day, NetDragon’s good luck came to an end.
Especially in the afternoon of the second day, when arge number of yers reached the ending and were mentally exploding.
They were not good-tempered new yers, and they rushed to the “RANK-Public Game Rating List” without a second thought and gave the game a score of o.
What’s terrifying was that these old yers were all very senior active users, and with their records of purchasing and ying games, their rating weight was extremely high!
By dusk on the second day, the score of “ze 3” had already been brought down to 3-3 by the angry yers.
When the score began to plummet, Gary tried to bribe familiar game media to try and reverse the trend.
He wanted yers not to focus only on the “ws” of the ending, and not to overlook the game’s overall high standards, innovative graphics and technology, perfectly bnced high-level music, and so on. But all these efforts were like a drop in the bucket.
When the score dropped below 5, Gary gave up.
Once again, everyone was wee to have a go!
Whoever has the ability, go ahead!
The media also quietly changed their scores.
Before theunch of “ze 3”, the media had generally given the game high pre-release scores, which was because the “media trial version” provided by NetDragon only had one-third of the content.
As for some of the game media who had been given good deals, they even directly gave a pre-release score of 10.
But now they quietly lowered their scores, with some who took money still considering face and giving 6. The rest were either 4 or 5.
NetDragon urgently made a statement, saying that they would unch an unprecedentedrge-scale DLC as soon as possible”, and the underground armory was just a part of this DLC. Due to the close connection with the follow-up storyline, they had no choice but to “create this difficult situation” by separating the two, and apologized for the inconvenience caused to the yers.
On the other hand, they also hired some water armies to me: “It was all because of the resignation of the former chief nner Randall. It greatly affected the normal development of ‘ze 3′, creating the current situation, and Randall must bear the main responsibility.”
Unfortunately, no fool would believe such excuses.
Underneath NetDragon’stest statement, there were now countless angryments:
“So because you wanted to make a DLC, you couldn’t give an ending to the game itself, is that the idea?”
“Trantion: You guys don’t pay twice, and you think you’re worthy of ying
NetDragon’s game?”
“You must be crazy about money!”
“Over 600 bucks for a semi-finished product, and after a dozen or so hours, it ends abruptly? Way to go, NetDragon!”
“I’ve seen the list of creators. New Chief nner @Henry, speak up!”
“Isn’t it obvious that you guys just want to make yers’ lives miserable? Fine!
If I ever buy your games again, then I’m a dog!”
“And still shifting the me to Randall, I think it’s this guy called ‘Henry’ who’s jealous of Randall and forced him out!”
“You think you can just profit from others’ expulsion? Don’t you even look at whether you have that ability, where’s your face?!”
Henry’s blood pressure surged as he read thements.
Why are today’s yers so hard to please? When I was making console games back in the day, even if they had a lousy ending, yers would just criticize it as being anti-climactic and still buy and y as usual.
Why are they so ss-hearted now?
You guys are the worst bunch of yers I’ve ever had!
Only his rationality kept him from logging into his Spiritual Rhinoceros ount and scolding these hard-to-please people, and he finally remained silent.
Richard called a meeting with all the senior executives to discuss countermeasures.
He refused to admit defeat, and there were no other VR masterpieces to be released in the short term. The window of opportunity was still there, so he believed there was still a chance to turn the situation around!
NetDragon went silent, but the yers wouldn’t be quiet.
Thement section of thetest announcement had already received tens of thousands of negativements.
It was really because Randall and his team had paved the way so well, their control and guidance of the yers’ emotions had been too spot on.
Now that they couldn’t vent their anger in the game, they could only vent it in reality.
Some yers were even loyal fans of the “ze” series and felt both furious and sad to see the new game turn into such a situation.
They turned to find Randall’s Spiritual Rhinoceros ount homepage, wanting to get the “Father of ze” to face NetDragon and demand an exnation.
But they were shocked to find out that just a few minutes ago, Randall had shared a video post from Dream Cloud Studio. He simply added four words: “New teaser.”
They opened the video in shock.
At the same time, Lincoln’s 20 million-plus fans and Cloud Dream Studio’s 3 million-plus fans also opened the video.
The video started with Lincoln standing alone amidst piles of wood and equipment. The video showed, at double speed, how Lincoln handcrafted a giant loom bit by bit.
After returning to normal speed, Lincoln took out a sheet of graph paper and a magnifying ss, gently ced them on a small tablet propped up on the edge of the loom, and then left the frame without a word.
The next moment, the loom started moving. Dense threads were pulled from spindles, converging into the loom. The loom began operating on its own with a click-ck noise, slowly weaving the fine threads into fabric.
The yers were puzzled and didn’t understand what Lincoln was doing.
Could this be a weaving simtion game? That would be too weird, right?
Finally, the background music slowly sounded, and a male voice began his narration.
“My life is meaningless. Friends who only want to take advantage, an arrogant girlfriend, a fat female boss who desperately squeezes her employees for every pitiful bit of power, and a panic disorder that can only be barely controlled with constant medication.”
“Everything is meaningless. I don’t know why I’m alive, why I’m still struggling.”
A rapid burst of gunfire.
Then a female voice spoke up.
“NO! Wesley, you’re wrong! You’re not a nobody. You have extraordinary lineage and a noble mission. It’s just that the time has note for your destiny to unfold.” “What destiny? When?”
“Now! ”
“Boom!” A violent explosion, the sound of shelves being knocked over, gunshots, the roar of a sports car engine, the sharp screech of shing swords, wailing and roaring.
“Every mission has a perfect weapon.” A calm andposed male voice.
“Coward! Why did youe here?” An angry, rough voice shouted. “Believe in the gun in your hand, shoot!” A determined female voice.
“A thousand rats…” A dying man’s voice.
“You killed my father!” The male voice from the beginning screamed hysterically!
“We carry a divine destiny!”
The screen finally cut away.
In a massive canyon, apanied by intense gunfire, bridges broke, trains derailed and plummeted, letting out a loud, piercing roar.
The next moment, the screen went ck, and fourrge characters appeared “Assassins’ Alliance”!
