Chapter 208 Conscience Game?!
As 2 p.m. approaches, the number of posts on the Whirlpool Forum drops to freezing point.
Yunmeng's "Light Encounter" game partition has seen a steady increase in the number of visitors.
Xia Yi and Super Tomato opened the live broadcast room early and did not play games. They chatted with the barrage while waiting for the release time.
Ayi and Yelang were a little older and were urged by the audience to finish checking the rumor that "there is an NPC that can be seen taking a bath through the window in the villa area" in advance. They returned to the virtual house, opened the Yunmeng game platform, and found "
The page of "Light Encounter" starts to wait.
Due to the help of the focus mode in Mirage 2.0, Shuihua's IQ has not improved, but her learning efficiency has greatly increased, so much so that she even dared to secretly mute her phone, hide it in the desk drawer, and secretly watch the live broadcast.
There are countless people who ask for leave in advance, fish at work, and guard the live broadcast room.
Of course, to say that all players are looking forward to it is not necessarily true.
At least Lin Shun didn't take it seriously at all. He and his club teammates conducted confrontation training in an abandoned factory.
After all, Lin You also said in the live broadcast, "You can look forward to the competition."
For the club, this is a clear signal.
The special status of "League of Assassins", the first virtual reality masterpiece, and its record-breaking sales of 15 million copies, determine that the first related event must be truly the one that attracts the most attention!
A scene that once only existed in the imagination of many e-sports players and club managers - the market is completely dominated by a dominant game, and the popularity is higher than all other game events combined, may really come true!
Since these days, most professional e-sports players have been training at the risk of their lives.
Not to mention the core combat skills of [Shooting Specialization], [Arc Shooting], and [Assassin's Bloodline], even [Driving Mastery] and [Locking Mastery] have been upgraded to the full level.
It can be said that all the skills that can be mastered and the intensity that can be improved are all mastered by them desperately!
Recently, it has even been developed to test the damage reduction effect of various armors and the installation and use of various modified parts based on the network information collected by the club. It can be said that they are doing everything possible.
Not only them, but also many serious players, including folk greats like Kurangtori, their skills and levels are not inferior to those of professional players.
Various spontaneous small-scale PVP events were already in full bloom and were everywhere without Lin You even paying attention.
These people don't pay attention to "Light Encounter" at all. They log in to the virtual world every day and only think about killing their opponents or being killed by their opponents!
Their only regret is that there are only 10 players in one world, which is too few, and playing 5 on 5 is not fun enough!

At Yunmeng Studio, when Lin You appeared in the virtual world, he found that everyone had basically suspended their work and paid attention to the release of the studio's third game.
Qin Songyun was very nervous, walking back and forth, and always paying attention to player updates online.
His performance left Xiao Chun beside him speechless.
She really put a lot of effort into this game, and she was a little nervous at first.
But after seeing that her boyfriend was ten times more nervous than she was, not only was she no longer nervous, but she felt a little funny. She patted Qin Songyun and said, "If you have this skill, you might as well read the second issue of "Assassin's Weekly"
How's it going?"
The other girls who participated in the production of "Light Encounter" had similar reactions to Qin Songyun, they were both looking forward to it and nervous at the same time.
Even Zhu Cixia, who was accustomed to the big world, was no exception.
Lin You clapped his hands to call everyone's attention, "Okay, let me tell you a secret. Do you know how to effectively relieve tension?"
Everyone looked at him confused.
"The answer is, throw your hat over the fence!"
After saying that, Lin You directly opened the backend panel and started the sale in advance!
As soon as the employees stretched out their hands to stop him, he had already completed the operation.
Qin Songyun swallowed the word "goodbye" before he left his mouth, quickly opened the backend, and started paying attention to the data.
Zhu Cixia opened more than a dozen windows in a row, most of them were live broadcast rooms of anchors, and a few were channels for players to express their opinions, such as Lingxi Chaohua, the "Light Yu" section of the Whirlpool Game Forum, etc., nervously paying attention to the developments.
Everyone was no longer nervous and quickly started paying attention to the sales situation.
Lin You's actions here were naturally discovered by the players immediately. After all, there were a lot of people paying attention!
In Xia Yi's live broadcast room, there were countless barrages immediately reminding her that the game was on sale.
In the virtual house, Xia Yi refreshed the page and did not see the price. She subconsciously felt that she had been cheated, "You lied to me again..."
But before he finished speaking, he immediately realized something was wrong: the gray "Not yet released" button turned into a bright red "Enter Game".
She tried to click on it, and suddenly found that the world around her had changed dramatically!
Sofas, furniture, and even walls, all modern things disappeared. She stood on a small beach, with the endless sea behind her, a narrow path in front of her, and a cave at the end of the path.
Xia Yi was not in a hurry to move forward, but was a little confused.
At the same time, many players and streamers were as confused as she was.
The reason is simple - this thing is actually free??
All of a sudden, casual players who didn’t understand the game were speaking out from their conscience.
There is a deep uneasiness in the hearts of experienced players - free games sound expensive!
But this time they were overly worried.
Lin You has cut off most of the krypton gold methods, leaving only monthly cards, and has maintained a relatively conscientious selling price of 30 yuan.
Combined with the virtual reality version of "Light Encounter", many "useless actions" that players can do by themselves have been deleted, and the consumption of currencies such as candles and hearts has been greatly reduced.
Basically, players will not have to transform into the Liver Emperor to get all the rewards.
This was different from his original idea.
When he first decided to make this game, Lin You thought that it would be best for players to stay in it all day long, either playing games or socializing. The stronger the stickiness, the better.
But then he reflected on it and realized that his ultimate goal has always been to expand the user base, sell more consoles, and ensure that there can be more residents in the virtual world in the future.
If the game is made too aggressive, it may have the opposite effect.
The game "Light Encounter" in the previous life was highly praised, but the scale of the players has never expanded very much, and it is difficult to attract many long-term players even if the players spontaneously benefit from it.
The reason for this is that in addition to the issue of the gap between game types and operating companies, the issue of "playfulness" cannot be ignored.
Therefore, Lin You finally decided to greatly reduce the "liveliness" and move closer to the style of "Wind Journey", focusing on allowing players to experience more complete and shocking game experience.
We encourage players to socialize, but try to guide them as gently as possible, rather than using social interaction to force players to play as much as they do at work every day.
What should I do if the player gets tired of playing after finishing the map, but the social stickiness is not strong enough?
The "Light Encounter" team in the previous life needed to worry about this problem, because it meant that players would fall out of the game and users would be lost.
But now, it’s not a problem at all!
How many games are there waiting for players to play in Linyou?
I'm not afraid that I won't have any games to play, but I'm a little worried that I only play old games and don't play new games. That's true!
The ideal situation for Linyou is that players can play happily for a month or two, and then most players will leave and play new games.
Players who are very interested in the game will stay in the game, but they will only stay online for a long time when there are activities. At other times, they will maintain a light gaming state, feeling physically and mentally happy and without stress.
In a month, players who are willing to invite relatives and friends to play should be almost done.
So, all in all, this is really a very conscientious game!
Only people like Lin You who don't take money seriously, or whose goal is not to make money through games, can achieve this level.
In a sense, this behavior is similar to that of Internet companies that burned money to grab users in the early stage.
As long as there are enough users, there are as many ways to make money as you want!
Chapter completed!
