Chapter 756: "The End of America" Born by My Stepmother? (3rd Watch)
After seeing the promotional CG of "The End of America", Josh Wilson couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He probably understood a little bit why Chen Mo didn't pay so much attention to publicity this time, it turned out that there were no highlights in this game!
Obviously, Chen Mo can be regarded as a master in terms of "creating gimmicks", and every time he promotes a new game, he can always accurately grasp the pain points of players.
Moreover, the games made by Chen Mo are basically distinctive, such as "Dark Souls", "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", "Uncharted", etc., and they can always find a very special point, which is completely different from other games.
But when it comes to "The End of America", maybe Chen Mo doesn't know where its highlights are.
Obviously, Chen Mo is planning to make a traditional zombie theme now, and he must not have made those zombies with complex weapons and superpowers, otherwise it would have been shown in the trailer. This is the most ordinary zombie background, and the protagonist seems to be an ordinary person, not a special forces or anything like that.
There's really nothing to advertise.
Josh Wilson also doesn't know why Chen Mo set the gameplay of the game so ordinary, maybe he wants to simulate a more realistic apocalyptic state?
Maybe want to make a post-apocalyptic survival simulation? But nothing about it appears in the trailer.
Moreover, doing so will make the highlights of the game not outstanding enough, and if you want to further improve the quality of the whole game, you can only rely on a god-level plot.
If there is no god-level plot, then this game can only be reduced to mediocrity, and nothing stands out; If there is a god-level plot, then this game has a little bit of the possibility of becoming a god.
However, in this extremely ordinary background, can it really show any god-level plot?
Josh Wilson didn't believe it.
Because he thought about it for a while, he couldn't think of what kind of story it would be.
"Look at the follow-up publicity of "The End of America", if it is only to this extent, then it is impossible to surpass "Survival in the Last World".
Josh, though still a little apprehensive, is very confident in his game.
Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that "The End of America" did not meet Chen Mo's expectations after it was developed, so Chen Mo was also a little unconcerned about the promotion of this game.
……
Over there, GA's promotion of "Survival in the Last Days" is in full swing, and new game information is revealed almost every day, and the decryption of new gameplay and new characters makes players more and more enthusiastic.
And on the side of "Apocalypse", after revealing the name of the game and announcing a promotional CG, it was not believed again.
There was no movement at all, and no information was released at all.
Many people are quite puzzled, this is not like Chen Mo's style!
In the past, Chen Mo has always spared no effort in promoting his new game, and he is full of tricks, when has he ever been so low-key?
Many people are wondering, could it be that the game is really not doing well? So much so that Chen Mo didn't have much energy to promote?
Just this promotional video, there are really no bright spots!
Or is Chen Mo really so confident in his reputation that he feels that players will not hesitate to buy without advertising?
……
The release date for Survival in the Last Days is set for October 15th, and the trial may start around October 7th.
From the current point of view, the completion of "Survival in the Last World" is already very high, and Josh Wilson has also arranged for internal personnel to test and make in-depth modifications to many details of the game.
Josh Wilson is a very nuanced designer, and after all, every detail of a game has the potential to affect the story and the player's feelings, so he naturally developed this way of working in every detail.
As for Chen Mo, the official release date of "The End of America" has not yet been determined, and no news has flowed out.
Strange to say, Chen Mo's previous games would more or less exude some clues, constantly arousing the enthusiasm of players, but only here in "The End of America", it seems that even the traditional publicity has been saved a lot.
Some of Chen Mo's die-hard fans are still paying attention to the progress of "The End of America", and those ordinary players have long forgotten about it.
On September 30, when the National Day holiday was about to begin, Chen Mo posted a Weibo coldly.
"On October 1st, the experience store will open the trial of "End of America", and on October 15, the follow-up DLC content of "End of America" and "Uncharted" will be released at the same time."
As soon as this Weibo came out, players were stunned.
"What's the situation, the development of "The End of America" has been completed? Faster than "Survival in the Last Days"?? ”
"Oh my God, was "The End of America" born by my stepmother, there is no publicity means, just a dry trailer, and it is about to be released?"
"Surprised, and together with the DLC of "Uncharted", don't you avoid your own games?"
"Moreover, it was released on the same day as "Survival in the Last Days...... I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't for something! ”
Many players are puzzled, and they can't understand Chen Mo's suffocating operation at all!
"The End of America" is probably the most non-existent 3A masterpiece developed by Chen Mo......
Look at other games, they started to warm up as soon as they started development, anyway, whether it's gaining popularity or actively creating gimmicks, they are all in the spotlight when the game is released.
As a result, here in "The End of America", there is a picture at the beginning, and the following is all up to the editor?
Oh no, it's a CG at the beginning, and there is nothing else to promote......
What's more, judging from the release date, it makes people wonder if Chen Mo has a grudge against "The End of America".
Released with Uncharted DLC and Survival in the Last World? Both of these are much more famous than "The End of America"!
Players' wallets are not rich in the first place, and it is very likely that they will only buy one of these three games, and if it is released early to around October 5th, it will have some advantages for "American Doomsday", but the 15th is a little too late!
Players are sweating, although "Apocalypse America" did not bear so many players' expectations, but it is clear that this game is to be compared with "Apocalypse", and if the sales data and word of mouth are all blown up, then the scene is a little too ugly!
However, it is useless to worry, the release date has already been set, and players can only hope that "American Doombid" will perform better than expected.
There are also some players who are waiting for "Apocalypse America" to start the trial and see in advance how the game is and whether it is worth buying.
Fortunately, the period of opening the trial game happened to be a holiday, and many players who had planned to travel to the imperial capital silently regarded Chen Mo's experience store as a very important attraction and arranged it in a very priority position.
