"Where did this drama queen come from, forcefully adding scenes for herself? If you haven't played it before, don't be ridiculous. These are obviously two different games. Who copied your Plants vs Zombies? "
"I suggest you go see an ophthalmologist. The world view is completely different. Is this plagiarism?"
"Hehe, just a tiny bit of similarity in gameplay is plagiarism? Then can I say that Plants vs Zombies also copied Emperor Dynasty Entertainment's Fantasy Tower Defense? After all, they're both tower defense games. "
"What's the point of a mad dog biting someone? Could it be that your master promised you a bone? "
"What level is Emperor Dynasty Entertainment? What's the level of the developer of Plants vs Zombies? Emperor Dynasty Entertainment copied you? Stop messing around, I think it's someone trying to ride on your popularity! "
"Hehe, Plants vs Zombies is a good game, but you can't be unreasonable. Why can't other people make games like this?"
Soon, the two groups of people were getting more and more heated as they tried to recruit more players into the community. In the end, it became a messy battle.
The battle was getting more and more intense. The two groups fought from night to night. By morning, the flames of war had finally reached Chen Mo's location.
Both sides were getting more and more heated. Many of the Emperor Dynasty Entertainment players who had lost their minds started to flame Chen Mo as well.
There were many similar comments on Chen Mo's Weibo.
"A few hundred people looking for trouble in two to three hours. I don't believe that there's no mastermind behind this. So here's the question, who is this scheming dog?"
"Brother, focus on designing the game, don't just think about creating hype."
"Don't always add scenes for yourself. You just made a game, show some respect to your seniors, understand?"
"Brother, hurry up and say something on Weibo. It's not too late to cut ties with these idiots. If you don't say anything, don't blame me for hurting you."
Chen Mo was furious when he saw this.
What's the meaning of this? Is it reasonable for him to copy me?
Chen Mo was quite tolerant of things like 'copying', as he was used to it in his previous life. Chen Mo wasn't someone with a heart of glass, and he was prepared for it.
However, these people were using their numbers to bully him. How could he take this lying down?
Do you think I'm Hello Kitty if I don't show my strength?
Chen Mo immediately posted on Weibo.
"Don't you know that a certain game isn't plagiarized? Did he really think the players of Plants vs Zombies were blind? He didn't want to bother with them at first, but in the end, they still took advantage of him? Qiu Bin, stop playing dead! "
As soon as the post was posted, the comments exploded!
The players of Plants vs Zombies were all energized. Many of them hadn't had a good night's sleep from the night before. Chen Mo's Weibo was undoubtedly a shot in the arm.
If the players were to stand up for Plants vs Zombies, but the author chose to keep the peace, how sad would that be! Luckily, Chen Mo wasn't one to be afraid of trouble. So what if it was Emperor Dynasty Entertainment?
Emperor Dynasty Entertainment's players were shocked. What the heck, there's really such an idiot?
They had even forgotten to scold him back immediately.
As soon as this Weibo post was posted, it spread like wildfire. Many industry insiders who paid attention to the gaming circle noticed it.
Within half an hour, Chen Mo received five private messages from other designers, one of which was from hengyou.com's Qiu Hengyang.
"Emperor Dynasty Entertainment is the biggest developer and distributor in the country, there's no point in going against them. Delete your Weibo, there's no need to be so stubborn."
Qiu Hengyang's intentions were clear.
Why did he specifically emphasize that Emperor Dynasty Entertainment was the biggest distributor? This was because in the parallel world, distributors could completely suppress developers. If your game was bad, as long as the distributors were willing to promote it, you could still make money. If your game was good, but the distributors banned you, you could only put it on the official app store, and you could only make a tenth of the money.
Emperor Dynasty Entertainment had the biggest gaming platform in the country, which video game designer would dare go against Emperor Dynasty Entertainment?
Therefore, Qiu Hengyang's reminder was out of good intentions.
Chen Mo replied, "Let me ask, you're not brothers with Qiu Bin, right?"
Qiu Hengyang replied, "… What the hell! I'm not related to him in any way, we just happen to have the same last name! "
Chen Mo replied, "That's good. See how I deal with him. "
Qiu Hengyang replied, "… You might have your own thoughts, but I still need to advise you to calm down."
The other messages were similar, all advising Chen Mo not to be stubborn, and not to go against Emperor Dynasty Entertainment.
Of course, there were also many messages from strangers that were scolding him, which Chen Mo ignored.
Half an hour had passed, and there was still no activity on Qiu Bin's Weibo.
To say that he wasn't awake yet? That was impossible. Even if he wasn't awake, someone would've called him to wake him up.
Since he wasn't saying anything, it was obvious that Qiu Bin didn't want to continue the conversation.
Actually, anyone in the industry could tell that Guardian of the Holy Spring definitely borrowed ideas from Plants vs Zombies, but this kind of borrowing didn't constitute copyright infringement. At most, it would just be a few words of criticism, and no one would be surprised by it.
However, what if Qiu Bin jumped out and said "I didn't copy it"? That wouldn't be appropriate either, and would only be treated as a joke.
Therefore, the most appropriate thing to do was to not say anything, and keep quiet. After this, the game would be released, and the money would be earned.
As long as it didn't affect the money, it didn't matter what the players said. Qiu Bin and Emperor Dynasty Entertainment wouldn't lose a single hair.
"Tsk, you're pretty good at keeping your composure."
Chen Mo's taunts would've caused the other party to lose their cool, but Qiu Bin was obviously an old hand at this, and was quite tactful.
"You think I won't be able to do anything just because you're a coward?"
Chen Mo laughed coldly. Emperor Dynasty Entertainment, right? Copying me, right? It's fine, you can copy me if you want, but I have ways to make you bleed!
Chen Mo had been wondering how a small incident like this could escalate to such a huge scale in just one night.
He checked the time when the Plants vs Zombies players left their messages, and found that it happened to be when he was doing the lottery.
This meant that this was probably the effect of the Lucky Capsule.
The Lucky Capsule must've influenced the actions of the players, causing them to discover the video, which led to this war of words.
This also meant that this incident had something to do with the Lucky Capsule, which was beneficial to him.
Moreover, if the players were to speak up, what reason did the designers have to remain silent? Chen Mo didn't even know how to spell the word 'cower'.
Chen Mo took out the Rage Disruptor from his bracelet, and chose to use it on Qiu Bin.
"Aren't you supposed to keep your composure? Come, let's see if you can still keep your composure! "
Finished.
Chen Mo waited for a minute, but there was still no reaction from Qiu Bin.
"Did the item fail? That can't be. Looks like the smell of gunpowder isn't strong enough. "
Chen Mo posted on Weibo.
