Chapter 250: Sales Overtake (One Update)
As more and more players experience "A Thousand Hells" and "Minecraft", the evaluation of these two games on the Internet has gradually increased.
Players who have not played "Dark" generally have a high evaluation of "A Thousand Hells". Strictly speaking, "A Thousand Hells" just borrowed some ideas from "Dark", after the PC changed to VR, and the Western Fantasy changed to the theme of immortals and demons, ordinary players can no longer see the shadow of "Dark" on "A Thousand Hells".
As for the evaluation of "Minecraft", there are some meanings of each saying their own thing.
"Has anyone understood Minecraft? When I go in, I dig the dirt, dig the soil, build a house, build a house, and build a house, and there is nothing else to play? ”
"I also think this game is a bit boring, although the sense of accomplishment of building a house by myself is quite high, but what I built can only be regarded as a matchbox!"
"Because the game you play is called "Minecraft", and the real fun is "Someone Else's World"!"
"The network mode is fun, everyone digs and builds a house together!"
"I don't understand what this game means, what guild, building, isn't this game mode already existing, what's new?"
"That's right, it's nothing more than a stack of bricks, what the hell can be piled up!"
"Hehe, upstairs, don't ** if you don't buy this game, this game must be played for a period of time to play with deep meaning, you fast food party can't understand it at all!"
……
However, these arguments were relatively rare, and there was no fight at all. Because those players who don't pay attention to Minecraft generally don't go out of their way to spray, but what about those who bought Minecraft?
They are all building houses like crazy.
A week after the game's release, there were more videos about Minecraft on major video sites.
Minecraft's First Experience: Is This a Horror Game? 》
The Castle in the Sky We Build
Minecraft Beginner Teaching
Original Architecture: Recreating the Courtyard House
Original Architecture: Recreating Suzhou Gardens
……
These original videos are broadly divided into three categories.
One is a hilarious first-experience video, such as digging a hole, being chased by zombies, and building a very ugly house.
One is to teach videos, mainly some veterans to new players to popularize the gameplay and skills of this game.
One is architectural video, that is, a large-scale building built in creative mode or network mode, which is filmed as a video and shared on the Internet.
In fact, "Minecraft" itself is a very topical game, and the rich game content is also more suitable for various streamers and video makers to use their imagination to distinguish themselves from other players.
Like a general RPG game, at most, it is a plot or a demonstration of some high-end gameplay, and it is difficult to make a difference between the anchor and the anchor.
Sandbox games like Minecraft are different, some people can show off their construction skills, some people can show off some fancy gameplay, and some people can explore the world......
Everyone's gameplay is different, and the content produced is getting richer and richer.
Without many people noticing, "Minecraft" slowly swept through major video websites and live broadcast platforms, leading a wave of trends.
A lot of players are also wondering.
"Why are there so many Minecraft videos?"
"This game area is almost a Minecraft zone!"
"A lot of streamers are also going to play this game."
"Have you watched Ah Xue's live broadcast? Chen Mo also showed his face, showing off a lot of awesome buildings inside. ”
"There is an anchor who is the president of "Minecraft", and he is too professional! Commanding everyone to dig holes and build houses, a town has now been built! ”
"I feel like the essence of this game is the online version, where everyone works together to build a whole city, which is so interesting."
"The stand-alone mode is also fun, you can create freely, and it is very suitable for people with autism and social phobia like me."
"It's all fun, it's all fun, and the charm of this game is that everyone can find their favorite way to play in it!"
"Hey, I've watched a lot of videos and live streams lately, and I want to play! I'd love to put my architectural talent to the test. ”
"If you play it, you'll find that it's someone else's world! It's all a lie! ”
Minecraft's popularity on video sites and live streaming platforms continues to grow, and sales are also rising.
In addition, some people have already started to sell blueprints of their own buildings in the game, and there are even some studio teams that specialize in building buildings and selling them for money.
Soon, a flurry of data came out.
First-week sales: 54,000 for "A Thousand Prisons" and 264,000 for "Minecraft".
Sales in the first month: 237,000 for "A Thousand Prisons" and 3.013 million for "Minecraft".
Counting the various value-added services in the game, the turnover of "A Thousand Prisons" in the first month was 390 million, while the turnover of "Minecraft" in the first month reached 430 million!
In fact, here in "Minecraft", the monthly turnover contributed by sales is only 385 million, and the rest of the money comes from the value-added services in the game, that is, the money spent by local tyrants to buy drawings.
After the number of Minecraft players exceeded 3 million, the number of world servers in the game has reached 30, and the number of grand guilds has reached thousands.
There are local tyrants in these big guilds, and even if they don't, they will pool money to buy some good-looking drawings, which is related to the image of the guild, so these people are not soft when they buy drawings.
There are also some local tyrants who buy blueprints purely for collection, such as some die-hard fans of the world of Azeroth, who must buy the ruins of Stormwind and Lordaeron.
After the sales on the first day were more than three times that of "A Thousand Prisons", "Minecraft" actually achieved a reversal within a month!
……
This data made Yan Zhenyuan also stunned.
The first day sales were 17,400, the first week sales were 264,000, and the first month sales were 3 million?!
A 170-fold difference between first-day sales and first-month sales? Is this a youkai?
Moreover, Yan Zhenyuan was also a little puzzled, the subsequent sales growth of "A Thousand Prisons" was too slow!
The ratings of "A Thousand Hells" on major websites, game media and game platforms are good, and they have been maintained above 8.7 points, and it is okay from the feedback of players.
Anyway, no matter how you push it, it's just a general fire, and there is no sign of a fire at all!
On the other hand, "Minecraft", although Chen Mo has also begun to spend money on some advertisements since the second week, it is far from the advertising volume of "A Thousand Prisons", why is this sales still rolling up?
The most infuriating thing is that the sales of "Minecraft" are so high! At this rate of growth, is this worth it?
There are fewer domestic VR gamers than mobile phones and PCs, and according to this trend, within a year or two, Chen Mo is afraid that all domestic VR game cabins will be equipped with "Minecraft"?
That's! How can VR games play the routine of small profits and quick turnover?
Yan Zhenyuan was also speechless, especially very puzzled by the performance of "A Thousand Prisons". It is said that even if "A Thousand Hells" can't be popular all over VR, it should at least be close to the performance of "Dark" on PC, right?
After thinking about it, Yan Zhenyuan still couldn't figure it out.
Maybe...... Is it metaphysics?
It doesn't make sense!
