"Chairman, so far, only 36% of the developers have submitted the application for the steam game online store!" Three days later, Minori Arakawa reported in a low voice with the latest data.
Arakawa Minoru did not expect this result. He thought that all the game developers would happily submit the application to join the online store. After all, this seemed to be a win-win situation. However, 74% of the game developers chose to wait and see.
"This is normal. People are always afraid of new things. It's normal that they are not willing to touch it for the time being!" Boss Jia felt that this was normal. It was impossible for these capitalists to take the initiative to innovate and embrace new things.
"To them, there are only two ways to solve this problem. One is to force them with a knife, and the other is to use bait to lure them!" Boss Jia laughed and said, "Microsoft is the one who forced them with a knife. We are not as shameless as Microsoft. So, let's use candy to lure them!"
"Candy …" Minori Arakawa's eyes brightened. He then said regretfully, "It's a pity that Pokemon Black and White has been used. If not, it would be more suitable!"
"A handheld game is not suitable!" Boss Jia shook his head and said, "It's better to use a standalone game this time!"
"What about Red Alert 3?" Minori Arakawa asked softly.
"I have seen that game. Based on the current quality, it is rubbish. It can't meet the expectations of the users!" Boss Jia rejected again.
Since Red Alert 2 was released three years ago, Red Alert had reached its peak. It became the first computer game in the world to sell more than 80 million copies.
It could not be helped. Red Alert 2 was a classic. Whether it was the movie music, the movie-like cutscenes, the various magical vehicles, the rich gaming experience, or the personal map editor provided by Red Alert 2, it made it possible for the players to create their own levels.
All these made Red Alert 2 popular and became the most classic game in the Red Alert series. This was especially true for Fusang. Boss Jia continued to innovate in the plot line. The failed Fusang was revived in the second game. Moreover, the main plot line was independent under the control of the Soviet Union. This allowed the Fusang's plot to stand on the side of justice. This made up for the shortcomings of the plot that made all the Fusang players uncomfortable in the first generation!
Especially in the end, when the Fusangpeople broke through the Soviet Union's last military base in Fusang, the Okinawa Futenma Base, and killed the Soviet Union's ruler, the five-star General Vladimir Sze. When he stood on the burning base and shouted that the Fusangpeople had stood up, all the Fusangpeople's emotions were stirred to the extreme.
As a result, Red Alert 2 sold an unprecedented 34 million copies in Fusang. The Fusang market created a sales legend all by itself.
Since Red Alert 2 was so popular, Red Alert 3 seemed to be the most suitable.
However, the problem was that although Red Alert 3 existed in the previous life, the third generation only appeared more than ten years later. The technology was still not up to par.
In fact, the shortcomings of Red Alert 3 were very obvious. This led to the sudden death of the third generation's sales, so the players could never count on the existence of Red Alert 4.
As a result, Boss Jia didn't continue to interfere with the development of Red Alert 3 and left it to the developers to create. In the end, Boss Jia was speechless after trying it out.
Red Alert 3 was actually quite good. It had everything it should have and was a proper sequel to the original.
However, it was because of this that Boss Jia didn't find it very interesting. It wasn't even as fun as Red Alert 3 in the other world.
Boss Jia wouldn't release a third generation like this no matter what, so Red Alert 3 was directly rejected by Boss Jia.
"Red Alert 3 won't work, then …" Arakawa hesitated, "Is it Warcraft 3?"
"That's right!" Boss Jia nodded, "What do you think? Do you think Warcraft 3 can be the bait?"
"I'm afraid it'll be difficult …" Arakawa sighed. Speaking of Warcraft 3, or rather the entire Warcraft series, Daqian Games felt bad.
Warcraft was actually very important to the Daqian Games. This was because it was the first Daqian game released. It was also the first game released by the Daqian's second largest gaming studio, Blizzard. It was also the first game to sell over ten million copies worldwide. No matter how you looked at it, it shouldn't feel bad.
However, Warcraft 2 screwed up.
Since Boss Jia had only played Warcraft 3 in his previous life, he didn't play the first or second generation of Warcraft, so he couldn't be bothered with it and left it all to Blizzard Studios to do. After all, they were the ones who made it in his previous life, so they were all original players.
However, what Boss Jia didn't know was that Warcraft 2 in the previous life suffered a huge setback. Its sales weren't even as good as the first generation, and Warcraft 2 was heavily criticized.
In the previous world, a simple game like Red Alert 1 had many loyal fans. They were still playing Red Alert 1 in 2020.
However, Warcraft 2 wasn't that popular.
In the end, Warcraft 2 in this world was even worse than in the previous world.
However, this wasn't Blizzard's fault. It was Boss Jia's fault. This was because at that time, Boss Jia ordered Blizzard to invest a large amount of manpower into the development of Diablo OL.
Although the first large-scale MMORPG in this world was very successful, Warcraft 2 was in an awkward position due to the lack of development and development. It wasn't good enough, it wasn't good enough, and it only had human battles. The orc and elven battles weren't released until two years later. This was why Warcraft 2 caused the Warcraft series' reputation to plummet to the point where it was unbearable to look at.
Now that Boss Jia wanted to use Warcraft 3 as bait, of course Shin Arakawa was worried.
After all, Warcraft 2 had already used up most of the reputation points, and it seemed like Warcraft 3 wouldn't be able to carry the flag.
"Don't worry!" Seeing Shin Arakawa's worried expression, Boss Jia smiled, "Do you know who's in charge of Warcraft 3 this time?"
"Which big shot is it?" Arakawa subconsciously asked.
"It's me!" Boss Jia touched his nose and smiled, "Warcraft 3 was made under my supervision, guidance, and review!"
"Then I'm relieved!" Arakawa let out a sigh of relief. With the God of Games personally making a move, Warcraft 3 was in the bag this time.
