“On February 2nd,””sadistic killing”” was officially released! ”
“After a few days of trial and hype, the game’s popularity was unparalleled, thanks to the game’s special feature and Chen Mo’s marketing efforts. ”
!!
“On various video websites, killing prototype had become a hot topic in the VR gaming area, with a large number of one-week plot introduction videos appearing. On various livestreaming platforms, many livestreamers of League of Legends, Overwatch, and single player games were also looking forward to the release of the game. And on Weibo,#welcome to the top of the food chain #had become a hot topic! ”
“On video websites, many UP Masters had mixed clips of Alex, the protagonist of “”kill the original form,”” and had also gained a high number of views. ”
“Even though many UP Masters and live streamers had tried the game in Chen Mo’s Experience Store, and many videos had been uploaded online, it didn’t affect the passion of the players for the game. ”
“The reason was very simple, watching others play was not as good as playing it himself! ”
“In games like Dark Souls, many players would choose to clear the game through video because it was too difficult. If they were tortured by it, they might not be able to last one round before they threw it aside. However, killing prototype was different. Anyone could kill monsters in this game, and there was no threshold at all! ”
“Moreover, the players were also itching to see the streamers flying on the roofs and walls of buildings, transforming into various forms to kill enemies at will, because they knew that these cool moves did not require any high-level operations at all, and anyone could do it. ”
“Not to mention, the experience in VR was completely different from watching a video! ”
“Many players were even more excited after watching the demo. If they were to climb walls in VR, what would it feel like? Wouldn’t that be great? ”
“Moreover, the price of the game was considered very cheap in VR games, and players were all expressing their desire to buy it! ”
……
“Imperial, at the entrance of ku le internet cafe. ”
“Ku le internet cafe was one of the more well-known chain internet cafes in China. It was located in all of the major first and second-tier cities. The environment was better, and the VR gaming pods were more advanced. The price was also affordable, so it was very popular with players. ”
“At the moment, VR internet cafes were quite popular because many people couldn’t afford VR gaming pods. Spending two to three hundred Yuan to experience the latest VR games in a VR internet cafe was considered a good deal. ”
A few players made an appointment to arrive at the entrance of ku le internet cafe.
“VR internet cafes were more expensive. For example, kule internet cafe, which was more affordable, cost 60 Yuan per hour for a normal VR pod. Playing four hours a day would cost more than 200 yuan, so the players couldn’t stay there every day. ”
“However, playing online together in a VR internet café on the weekend was a good choice for many players. ”
“””Eh? Why is there a new banner? A collaboration with the original form internet cafe?”” ”
“””What the f * ck? Is that true? Isn’t that Chen Mo’s new game?”” ”
“A few young people walked up curiously and saw the banner and sign at the entrance of the shop. It clearly said “”We can try Chen Mo’s new game ‘killing the original’, no purchase required!”” ”
“””We can directly play ‘killing original form’? F * ck, then let’s not play Overwatch today. Let’s play Slayers!”” ”
“””Why? I still want to show off my Yuan clan!”” ”
“””Why are you showing off the yuan clan? Didn’t you see that killing original form was all over the internet recently? This game is much better than your Yuan clan!”” ”
“””Really? How good is it?”” ”
“””Hehehe, you’ll know when you go in. It’s beyond your imagination! Hurry up, go in and ask the boss. Isn’t this game selling for 998? how can he experience it directly in an internet cafe? Is this some kind of cooperation with the R & D?”” ”
“A few young people came to the front desk of kule internet cafe. As they swiped their ID cards, they asked the pretty lady at the front desk,””””I can play ‘killing prototype’ in the internet cafe? Is that true?”” ”
“The lady smiled and nodded.””That’s right. Our internet cafe is in a partnership with Thunderbolt entertainment. We bought a lot of internet cafe versions of kill the original form. You guys can try it out in the VR gaming pods there. However, the price is 100 yuan per hour.”” ”
“””Can I play all the content of the game?”” a player asked.””Or are you only allowed to play the first part?”” ”
“””You can play all the content,”” the young lady replied.””You can charge by the time you play.”” ”
“NICE!”” A few young people couldn’t wait to swipe their ID cards and each occupied a VR gaming pod. ”
“Some VR game companies had done similar events before, but they were all limited by game content. In other words, you could experience the game directly in the early stages of the trial, but as the game progressed to a certain stage, you had to pay to buy the game. ”
These trial versions of the game were provided to the VR internet cafe for free by the game developers. The purpose was to let players experience the beginning of the game and be attracted to pay later.
“At the moment, most players went to VR internet cafes to play large scale online games, such as moon God’s prophecy. The entry fee was very low, and the main source of income was additional value-added services. ”
“Many players had been tricked by these “”experience games”” before. Some standalone games were put up in VR internet cafes under the banner of “”experience””. They were good at the beginning, but they could not be played halfway and had to pay for them. ”
“It stood to reason that this charging strategy was quite reasonable, but the problem was that no one was willing to buy it! ”
“On the other hand, sadomasochism used a different strategy, which was equivalent to shifting the risk to the VR internet cafe. Therefore, to players, this kind of charging strategy was much more friendly. ”
“There wasn’t anything new about this strategy, other developers had thought of it before, but it wasn’t popular because they didn’t have the same characteristics as slaughter prototype, and also because they didn’t have Chen Mo’s reputation! ”
“It was precisely because Chen Mo had so many of his classic games, and almost every one of them had achieved a certain level of success, that the owners of these VR internet cafes were able to work with Thunderbolt entertainment without worrying about losing money. ”
“Soon, several young people turned on the voice function in the VR gaming cabin and shared their gaming experience with each other. ”
“””F * ck, experiencing the opening CG in the VR gaming pod is awesome! It feels like Alex jumped down right in front of me, it’s so exciting!”” ”
“””Wow, Times Square is exactly the same as the video! And only when you play it yourself do you realize the difference between VR and watching videos!”” ”
“””F * ck, I’m running on the building! He could climb all kinds of buildings! I’m a little afraid of heights, so I fell down!”” ”
“””Tanks and helicopters are all trash! He’s invincible!”” ”
“””F * ck, this game actually passed the vetting process? Can you believe that this is a domestically produced game!”” ”
