What was the concept of 20 million matrix gaming pods?
“At least for now, it seemed to be a distant goal.”
!!
“On the surface, Chen Mo’s words seemed like a scam. Have you ever seen a designer who would negotiate with the player for cold rice?”
“However, this cold rice was really fragrant!”
“In fact, the players didn’t feel bad about it, because strictly speaking, World of Warcraft wasn’t just cooking cold rice; it was a new project.”
“After all, the world of Azeroth had always been an ip, but the fans had different opinions on what to do, and the key was Chen Mo’s decision.”
“Making an MMORPG meant that World of Warcraft was completely different from most of Chen Mo’s previous games. There wasn’t any comparison, so it wasn’t even worth mentioning.”
“Moreover, many people knew that the matrix gaming pod was currently being sold at a loss.”
“Moreover, after this Weibo post was posted, Thunderbolt entertainment and le Hui both announced that the price of the new matrix gaming pod had dropped again. This time, the price had dropped to about 150000 Yuan, which was the same price as the traditional VR game pod’s mid-section.”
“Also, when World of Warcraft was officially released, all the players who had matrix gaming cabins would be given a part of the game time and special pets and mounts.”
“This was also disclosed later, which meant that these 20 million players would be able to obtain a special identity tag, and the officials would recognize them as “”old players.”””
“In addition, the reduced price of the matrix game cabin also provided some “”emotional”” subsidies for the players who had bought the matrix game cabin at a high price, such as the return of additional top-ups and tokens, free game discounts, and hardware upgrades.”
“After all, when the matrix game cabin was first released, it was sold for 300000 Yuan. In nearly a year, it had dropped to 150000 Yuan. This drop was quite big.”
“To Chen Mo, after testing the market, it was time for mass production and to quickly dominate the market. He even had to pay for it himself. This was the only way to develop the gaming pods.”
“However, for the players who had spent a lot of money to buy it from the start, they might feel a little uncomfortable.”
“Of course, it was impossible to make up for the price difference completely. As the saying went,””the earlier you buy, the earlier you enjoy.”” Technological products depreciated very quickly. However, considering that these people were loyal Thunderbolt entertainment players and Chen Mo’s die-hard fans, he had to take care of their emotions.”
“He would give them some special discounts and give them a commemorative sports car in oasis. Then, he would return some tokens. He would try his best to take care of their feelings. It was enough as long as he expressed his intentions.”
“Of course, the further price reduction of the matrix gaming pod was something to be rejoiced about for the players. In fact, every price reduction would attract a large number of hesitant players to cut off their hands.”
“Moreover, the hype of World of Warcraft gave the players a good reason. With all these factors combined, Chen Mo’s goal of twenty million was possible.”
“After such a long period of preparation, the gaming pods had been recognized by the market, and there were enough games on it. The price had also dropped, if he didn’t buy it now, would he really have to wait for Chen Mo to give it away for free?”
The attraction of the next generation VR was also hard to resist.
“Therefore, within a short period of time after this series of news was announced, the moment the price of the matrix gaming pod dropped, it was immediately snatched up.”
“All major shopping websites were sold out, and everyone was shouting,””This time, Chen Mo must go bankrupt!”
“The players didn’t find anything wrong with the 20 million target. Instead, they were working together, hoping to help Chen Mo reach his goal.”
……
Some people also wondered what the 20 million sales of matrix had to do with World of Warcraft.
Could it be that you need 20 million players to be able to carry this game?
“It was obviously nonsense. No matter how awesome an online game was, it couldn’t possibly support 20 million people in the same server. Wasn’t that a joke?”
“Of course, they didn’t know that this wasn’t Chen Mo’s request, but the system’s …”
Another group of people had doubts about the genre of World of Warcraft.
Would an MMORPG work?
“This genre of games in parallel world had been declining steadily, from its peak in the past to a game that was on the verge of being marginalized.”
“Whether it was in China or overseas, many classic mmorpgs that had once created a glorious era were getting worse by the day. The number of active players and income was dropping every day. Some games would even honestly announce the number of active players at the start, but would not do so in the end.”
“However, he couldn’t fool others even if he didn’t announce it. After all, the game itself was becoming more and more compatible with the server. His close friends were all AFK him. When he opened his social list, it was all gray. This meant that this game type was already going downhill and had become a sunset industry.”
“As for those mmorpgs that were said to be big productions with new technology, they were even worse off. They were all trying their best to create hype before they were released, and their popularity was not low. However, after this period, no one was interested in them anymore.”
“Speaking of which, why was it so tragic?”
“It was all because Chen Zhao had stabbed him left and right, rendering him half-paralyzed.”
“Back in China, moon God’s prophecy, heavenly justice Three Kingdoms, and Legend of the Sword were all extremely popular, but look at what games Chen Mo was playing one after another.”
League of Legends.
“””Overwatch.”””
PlayerUnknown’s Battleground.
What was this called? It was a heart-killing move.
“Not to mention the VR platform, even the PC and mobile platforms were all occupied.”
“What could traditional mmorpgs use to fight against such a player? Old games couldn’t even survive by relying on fans, let alone new games.”
“It wasn’t Chen Mo’s fault, he knew the trend, so he gave mmorpgs a little push.”
“At the end of the day, the decline of the game genre wasn’t because Chen Mo was too good at fighting, but because it was destined to decline, and the players were running out of time.”
“The other video game companies had realized this as well, which was why fewer and fewer companies were making mmorpgs. They were all making games with fragmented time.”
“But now, Chen Mo was going to dig up a game that he had buried himself in and make?”
“It was impossible to trust him without thinking, because it went against the basic rules of the game.”
“No matter how high the quality of World of Warcraft is, you can’t possibly give the players game time out of thin air, right?”
“As long as the problem of time wasn’t solved, it would be difficult for the players to support you even if they wanted to.”
“If this game was sold out, how much would be appropriate?”
“If this game was charged for time, and everyone’s time was so precious, how much could you earn if you couldn’t let players spend a lot of time in the game?”
A compulsory monthly card? Or should he just add the Krypton gold element?
“That definitely wasn’t something serente would do. At this stage, the matrix gaming pod had already been sold at a loss. Was there a need to damage his own reputation for such a trivial matter?”
