April 1st, April Fool's Day …
Game Designer was officially released, priced at twenty-eight yuan!
Now that Tengda was famous and had specially hired some video UP Masters to promote the game, it was impossible for the game to be released secretly without attracting the attention of players.
Pei Qian had been struggling for a long time about the price.
If he set it too low, Ghost General was a lesson to be learned.
If he set it too high, Ocean Stronghold would be another lesson to be learned.
What should he do?!
He was in a dilemma.
Pei Qian thought about it and decided to set the price lower.
That was because Game Designer's unique characteristic was that players could 'cloud clear' the game!
As long as the video creators recorded the entire process of the game, cloud gamers would be able to experience it on the video website. The urge to buy the game would not be as strong.
In other words, the main group of people who would buy the game would be hardcore gamers.
For example, many video UP Masters, live streamers, and gamers who loved domestic standalone games.
This group of people would not be so sensitive to the price of the game. It would not make a big difference whether the game was priced at thirty yuan or ninety yuan. As long as they wanted to play it, they would definitely buy it.
To cloud gamers who were used to free games, no matter how low the price was, it would not be lower than free games.
Thus, after much consideration, Pei Qian decided to set the price at twenty-eight yuan. That was the lowest price that the system allowed.
Since the target group of players was relatively fixed, the lower the price, the less money they would earn!
This price caused some people in the company to worry that they would not be able to recoup their investment. However, Pei Qian stood his ground and decided on this price.
Pei Qian hoped that the key words for this game would be: huge investment, cool scenes, extremely popular, and low sales!
Until now, Game Designer's main investment had been in the art department. About two million yuan had been invested in it. All the other investments added up to about three million yuan.
Ruan Guangjian had indeed given them a discount, but he was only in charge of the concept art and design of the game. The actual concept art, scenes, models, and so on still cost extra money.
Taking into account the other miscellaneous investments, this game had to sell about three hundred thousand copies before it would be profitable!
Pei Qian was still a little confident in his goal of not selling three hundred thousand copies.
It was acceptable for a small group of players to be masochists. However, he could not possibly have three hundred thousand masochists, right?
…
At the same time that the game was released, Qiao Liang also updated his video.
After the update was completed, Qiao Liang turned off Potato Web's backend. He did not want to disturb his fans' chats and turned his cell phone to silent mode.
The autistic mode was completed in one go!
Then, he immediately sent the address of the video to Lu Mingliang.
Not long after, the other side transferred the money.
Now that the money was in his account, Qiao Liang heaved a long sigh.
Perfect!
He immediately entered the state of an ostrich. He didn't care about the flood behind him. Since he had gotten the money, he would play for two months first!
No matter how much he was scolded, two months later, the storm would blow over, and Teacher Qiao would act as if nothing had happened. Teacher Qiao would be a good man again.
…
Not long after Qiao Liang posted the video, his fans received a push.
In the short span of ten minutes, the emotions of the fans had been greatly affected, and they had suffered a ton of damage!
When he saw that Teacher Qiao had uploaded a new video, his first reaction was joy.
When they took a closer look, they realized that it was "New Recommended Games of the Month". Their enthusiasm instantly died down. They knew very well that this was a regular sponsored partnership, and the video wouldn't be very interesting.
Some of the fans had nothing better to do, so they clicked on it.
Then, their worldview shattered into pieces!
All the images in the video were of a certain game. The graphics were quite beautiful and there was nothing to nitpick about.
The key was that the dubbing content could only be described with one word: unbearable!
"Hello, dear dads. I'm still the Teacher Qiao you're familiar with in the game."
"Before I start this episode, please allow me to calm down. Slurp, slurp, slurp … Ah ~"
"Have you seen the game's developer? Tengda! "
"Tengda Games' latest game. I'm going to show everyone the game's graphics now …"
"Sorry everyone, I'm a little incoherent … Wow, ladys.
gentlemen，the
Time … "
"I haven't felt this way in many years. I've been looking forward to a game so much. At 3: 11 am, Tengda's research and development team sent me the video of the game online.
"Its name is Game Designer, G ~ A ~ M ~ E, game, game.
designer！”
“Awesome！”
…
Many of Teacher Qiao's fans were dumbfounded. Their mouths were almost O-shaped as they watched the entire video.
The video wasn't long; it was only slightly more than ten minutes.
However, the style of this video was completely different from Teacher Qiao's previous videos. It didn't look like the same person had made it!
Although the previous' New Recommended Games of the Month 'videos were all sponsored partnerships, Teacher Qiao had put in his best effort.
He had introduced each game's unique characteristics.
The video was clear and fluent.
Although it was for sponsored partnerships and he avoided the important points, only boasting about the good points and glossing over the bad points, the content of the video was substantial and interesting.
What the hell was with this video?
It was strangely mixed in English and Chinese, and there were many disgusting tones in the video.
It only cared about sucking up to the game and did not mention the bad points at all. What's more, it was all nonsense. It was as if it couldn't find any good points, and that was why it was forcefully boasting.
The most important thing was that the entire video had nothing to say. It was all nonsense and a waste of time!
Apart from making people feel disgusted, there was no meaning to it.
Many fans watched the entire video and still could not accept this cruel reality.
"Teacher Qiao, if you're being kidnapped, blink your eyes! Oh, you didn't show your face. That's fine. "
"What the hell is this? Forget about the sponsored partnerships, why do you have to be so ugly when eating?"
"Unsubscribe, unsubscribe!"
"Bootlickers don't belong here!"
"I shouldn't have clicked in when I saw that it was' New Recommended Games of the Month '…"
"What's the meaning of this? Is this an April Fool's joke? En, today is the first of April; that must be it! "
"I can't tell from his tone if he's pretending to be a traitor or if he's serious …"
"When you can't tell if he's pretending to be a traitor or if he's retarded, you'll be treated as retarded!"
"I counted. In the ten-minute video, you said more than thirty 'wow's. I'm really free, but you're really sucking up to me!"
"Wow, awesome! This is my exclusive moment!"
"It's hard to imagine how much money Teacher Qiao, who has read countless games, received to make a sponsored partnership video like this …"
"I'm suspicious. Can he really receive money for doing this? Won't his sugar daddy be disgusted by sucking up to him? "
"The key is … this advertisement is for Tengda! From The Lonely Desert Road to Game Designer now … I'm dumbfounded. What exactly happened between Tengda and Teacher Qiao … "
"A UP Master who dissed games was defeated by an evil game company using money? I can't help but think about it! "
"Tengda really released a new game today. It's called Game Designer. There's a 99.99% chance that Teacher Qiao is doing sponsored partnerships!"
"Is it really Tengda's game? Is it the company that made Ghost General and Ocean Stronghold? This … is their marketing strategy that low? Or did Teacher Qiao take the initiative to suck up to them?? "
"After watching this video, I was determined not to touch this trashy game. However, I realized that it's really Tengda's game, and I want to play it. What should I do?"
"Don't go! You know it's sh * t, but you still want to eat it. How stupid must you be?! "
