Chen Mo continued, "Think about how expensive houses are, don't you think? A house in a second-tier city could easily go up to two million, and the mortgage would take forty to fifty years. But this skin is less than two hundred RMB, my friend!
"In this inflationary society, what can you do with two hundred RMB? It's just the cost of a meal! Isn't that right?
"If you take a girl out for a meal, a movie, or a hotel, two hundred RMB won't be enough, right? And that's a one-time use, this skin is permanent! Once you buy it, you'll be in the game forever. It's your personal property. The clothes you buy will be thrown away and expire after a while, but the skin won't, it'll always look good.
"Even if you can't get this girl, the skin will still be useful when you try to get the next girl. Even if you don't want to get girls, if you want to get guys, this skin will …"
Zou Zhuo immediately stopped Chen Mo, "Stop stop stop! Manager, stop talking, I'll buy it, I'll buy it alright? "
After a long internal struggle, Zou Zhuo gritted his teeth and bought the skin.
It wasn't that difficult, as online shopping was a very simple matter. All he had to do was click a button, scan his fingerprint, and the payment was done. It was extremely fast.
Because online payment was a very virtual number, it wasn't like paying cash in a store. Many people didn't have a clear idea of how much they were spending.
Therefore, Zou Zhuo quickly threw the pain to the back of his mind and happily showed off his new skin in the game.
"Wow, this skin is so cool, the special effects have all been changed!"
"The normal attacks are so cool, the ultimate skills are so cool! The looks are off the charts, manager! "
"But … why do I feel like this hero will die easily?"
Chen Mo laughed, "This hero is an assassin, and a rather unique one at that. You have to play like this, first find monsters or minions to kill, then kill when you have an ultimate, if you don't, just watch from the sidelines … "
Chen Mo gave pointers as he watched Zou Zhuo play. It didn't take long for Zou Zhuo to get the hang of it. He had the basics of League of Legends after all, and his IQ wasn't bad.
The more Zou Zhuo played, the more he felt like he made the right choice. This hero was too cool!
It was even better than many of the heroes in "League of Legends" because the cooldowns of skills in "Kings of Glory" were too short. Sometimes, players would not even know where they were …
Not only did he show off his opponent, he also showed off himself …
Zou Zhuo suddenly felt something was wrong. "Manager, why are you being so nice today? You want to teach me how to play? "
Chen Mo laughed, "That's part of the after-sales service, but there's something I have to remind you of."
Zou Zhuo asked, "What is it?"
Chen Mo replied, "You're using a smurf account. Li Bai and the Phoenix Seeking Love skins were both bought on that account. Or you can use this account to pick up girls, or you can buy another one from the main account. "
Zou Zhuo: "… Holy sh * t? Why didn't you say so earlier!!! "
Chen Mo chuckled, "I just thought of it."
Zou Zhuo was unconvinced. "I don't believe it! You must have thought of it long ago, but you didn't say it! You're trying to trick me into spending double the money, aren't you!! "
Chen Mo smiled without saying a word.
Zou Zhuo broke down. "F * ck! I've only played for two hours and I've already spent over 200 RMB on a mobile game?! I must be crazy! "
…
In the short three days since its release, Kings of Glory was already on the best sellers leaderboards, rising every day.
Strictly speaking, Kings of Glory was a lot slower than Onmyoji. This was because Onmyoji had already gained a lot of popularity through other games when it was released, and there was also a huge influx of card players, which made it a trending topic in a short period of time.
But Kings of Glory didn't have such good treatment. First of all, Chen Mo didn't put much effort into promoting it, and second of all, many MOBA players didn't actually get into Kings of Glory.
Onmyoji was different from Kings of Glory in this regard. Onmyoji was the master of all mobile card games, and was on a completely different level compared to other mobile card games in the parallel world.
But Kings of Glory couldn't avoid being compared to League of Legends ever since it was released. Many players of League of Legends wouldn't be able to convert to Kings of Glory immediately.
This was something that all mobile MOBA games had in common, and also the most contradictory point. If a game wanted to become popular, it would have to ride on the popularity of League of Legends. But if that happened, the game would always live in the shadow of League of Legends, and couldn't start afresh.
Of course, for other video game designers, it was fine as long as they could get some soup, but for Chen Mo, every game he made had his own ambitions.
Many mobile game designers had already seen the hidden potential of Kings of Glory. Just the fact that it was the best MOBA mobile game was enough to explain a lot of things.
However, no one knew where the limits of Kings of Glory lay.
Judging from the previous situation, the best performing MOBA mobile game was the mobile version of Ancient Catastrophe, which was currently ranked second on the best-selling mobile games list. Although it had occasionally surpassed the mobile version of Moon Lord's Prophecy a few times, it was quickly overtaken again.
After all, mobile PC games like this had a lot of money to spend and player loyalty.
Could Chen Mo's Kings of Glory recreate the glory of Onmyoji and reach the top of the best sellers leaderboards?
Many people had their doubts.
…
At the same time, Kings of Glory was slowly spreading among many groups of players.
At a certain company.
"Why don't you play a few rounds of Kings of Glory during your lunch break?"
"Kings of Glory? What's that? "
"It's the mobile version of League of Legends. You can play it on your phone. It's very similar, and it's even easier to control. I can easily become a god in it! "
"Aiya, isn't that just a knockoff of League of Legends? Haven't there been a few MOBAs like that? It's not fun at all. "
"This one's different, Chen Mo made it."
"Chen Mo made it? Why is Chen Mo making a game like that? Alright, I'll download it and try it out. "
…
At a certain school.
"Have you played Kings of Glory?"
"Kings of Glory? I've never played it, what game is it? "
"It's similar to League of Legends, but you can play it on your phone! And the heroes in it are super fun, my Arthur is awesome! I'll carry you! "
"Shh! The homeroom teacher is here, put your phone away. "
"It's fine, we'll play it secretly during the night study period."
At a party.
"Hey, girl, why are you playing mobile games too? My goodness, isn't this Kings of Glory? "
"Yeah, I was looking for games online when I had nothing better to do. I found this game out of the blue and played it. It's pretty fun, so I've been playing it ever since."
"Girl, what's your tier now? Only Silver? Come, I'll carry you. I'm a Gold player! "
"Sure, sure. Hurry up and carry me. I feel like my teammates are terrible!"
…
In a certain chat group.
"Does anyone want to play Kings of Glory together? Add me as a friend. "
"Cutie, you've changed. Why are you playing such a trashy mobile game?"
"Yeah, it's fine if you gave up on LoL and said you don't have time to play it, but why are you playing Kings of Glory instead?"
"Hmph, I despise you!"
"Kings of Glory is just a watered-down version of LoL. Many of the game's mechanics have been changed. It feels like a joke, it's not fun at all …"
"But … there are so many good looking girls in Kings of Glory. You can add them as your apprentices, you can flirt with girls, and you can search for girls nearby. I've already met a few girls who play Kings of Glory, and we're getting along really well … "
"Wait, you can search for girls nearby?!"
"Yeah, and as long as your rank is high, the girls will like to add you. I even managed to get a few of their contact details!"
