Mu Fan's mouth twitched when he heard Minister Of Miura's excited tone.
How excited are you? You can just type and chat, but you're using voice. How anxious are you? Don't you know that you'll disturb Gauze Mist?
Are you saying that she's not your sister?
Mu Fan was speechless as he replied, "There's no need to be so excited, Minister Of Miura?"
Not long after, Minister Of Miura sent an apologetic message, "I'm sorry. I'm too excited to hear such a good piano and original song. In addition, Hideri Kashiwagi -sensei said that you'll prepare the game's BGM. So, these music scores were also written by you, Mu Fan, right?"
Actually, these piano songs were not written by Mu Fan himself. It was just that he had the system to exchange for the music scores that came with "Empty Fate."
Mu Fan said without blushing, "En, what do you think?"
"Sure enough, it's our gaming department's honor to be able to invite Mu Fan. These songs are great! The melancholy melody paired with the game's story is simply impeccable. Even if the game is paired with this music, it will become a masterpiece! "
Across the screen, Minister Of Miura was not stingy as he sent a message to Mu Fan.
"Since it's very suitable for the game, then I'm relieved."
After sending the message, Mu Fan smiled slightly. In fact, this was also within Mu Fan's expectations.
Originally, "Empty Fate" relied on these beautiful piano tunes to attract the attention of the players. Even in the other world, there was no more suitable BGM than the original piano tunes for "Empty Fate".
However, just as Mu Fan thought that he had succeeded and was about to put on the gaming helmet to enter the game, Minister Of Miura's message came again.
"Mu Fan, how much do you think the game" Empty Fate "should be sold for?"
Minister Of Miura's question surprised Mu Fan. Originally, other than the original art, text, and music that required his and Ying Lili's help, the rest were completed by the gaming department. Even the game's price was set by the gaming department.
But now that Minister Of Miura took the initiative to ask him, it was obvious that he regarded him as an important member of the gaming department and had the same right to speak as the Minister.
Of course, Mu Fan could also join the gaming department.
How could he not be able to beat the game that Black Cat had called trash, a game that could be cleared as long as one used a bug?
Of course, Mu Fan was in a bit of a dilemma when it came to Miura's question.
Actually, his predecessor didn't really play 18 X Pretty Girl games, and the last time he went to Akihabara, he didn't pay close attention to the true price of 18 X Pretty Girl games.
It could be said that he did not really understand what kind of world this was …
"Minister Of Miura, how much do you think the game's normal price should be?"
Mu Fan decided to ask Minister Of Miura first. After all, Miura was the head of the gaming department and had a deeper understanding of dating games than him.
"According to the current market price in Japan, the cheapest 18X dating game costs more than 10,000 yen. The normal price is around 15,000-20,000 yen. But from my point of view, our game used Hideri Kashiwagi's original art and such a beautiful piano piece. The price can be raised even higher … "
Sure enough, the price of a game could not be determined by the previous world's price.
Only then did Mu Fan understand. In this world, Japanese ACG culture was extremely popular, and the price of Galactic games was skyrocketing. Every game was much more expensive than the Japanese games in his previous world, and some were even more than twice as expensive.
In this era, only the rich could afford to buy figurines and games.
At this time, Minister Of Miura sent another message: "For example, the dating game with the idol singer Icy Snow reached a price of 30,000 yen."
The price of an idol singer's song increased?
Mu Fan was silent for a moment. He did not care about the idol singer Icy Snow. But in fact, if he wanted to make his game the fastest way to make money, he would have to lower the price of the game. Then, the sales would naturally increase.
For example, lowering the price of the game to the lowest price in the current market, which was 10,000 yen in this world, would attract a lot of people to buy the game.
But in this way, the profits would be much lower. Selling three copies of the game would not be as profitable as selling one copy of the game.
This was extremely difficult. After all, this was the era of ACG culture. Even making a game would not be cheap.
Although he and Ying Lili took a share of the profits, the game production department also needed funds. After deducting the cost of materials, labor, and taxes from selling the game, there was not much left.
Of course, just like the previous mission, the sales of the game had to reach 50,000.
It did not mean that the game could reach 50,000 sales in a week, but the total sales in a year.
So, the sales for a week were only compared to the sales of other games.
Of course, it was the calculation of sales x price. The final profit would be calculated to determine the ownership of the game award.
So, in order to really make money, the only way was to make "Empty Fate" go the premium route.
The meaning of premium was very simple. It was like the official and meticulously made figurines. In his previous life, the figurines were meticulously made by Black Hairless and Skaha. The figurines were completed step by step in an orderly manner. The price of 20,000 yen was enough to make otakus go crazy.
Some people even rejoiced that they got it for 15,000 yen.
But if it was a pirated version made by machines, it would not sell for a few hundred yen. A large number of figurines were burned at the stake in the end.
As for the dating game, the most important factor was the style.
It had to be better than other games. The style was excellent, the music was beautiful, the story was attractive, the gameplay was smooth, and so on.
In terms of the style, for example, Ying Lili's manga was exquisite. Presumably, on the day the game was released, at least Ying Lili's reputation would attract some readers.
In this world where there were not many siscon games, Sky Fairy's delicate and beautiful character would attract the attention of most otakus.
In Mu Fan's previous world, almost everyone who had watched anime knew about Sky Fairy. Even girls who liked to cosplay would choose to cosplay as Sky Fairy.
As for the music of "Empty Fate", it could also be considered premium. The story was needless to say, a masterpiece in the eyes of siscon fans.
So, in a sense, the price of the game could still be increased.
Just as Mu Fan made the decision to send a message to Minister Of Miura, Hatsune's voice suddenly rang in his mind.
