Chapter 258: The Players' Eagerness to Wait (Four Changes)

"Minecraft" pocket version,Mainly to allow players to experience the most basic fun of this game on their mobile phones,Compared with "Minecraft" on PC and VR, the pocket version is mainly to cut out part of the content.

In the pocket version of "Minecraft", players will not have the two entrances of the network mode [Everyone's World] and the sightseeing mode [Chen Mo's World], and other functions are available.

The data on PC, VR and mobile phones are all interconnected, that is, the buildings that players pinch out in the pocket version can also generate drawings for sale, and they can also be built in the network mode on the PC.

Chen Mo felt that as a mobile phone, it was completely enough to do this, and it was not allowed to do technology any further.

So far, the PC, mobile, and overseas versions of "Minecraft" have all been developed.

……

Major websites and forums, the popularity of "Minecraft" continues to ferment.

Many designers were shocked by the game's potential.

One month after its launch, this game has already achieved a reversal of "A Thousand Hells", and this overtaking is based on the premise that the price difference is ten times, so it is more topical.

Moreover, from the perspective of keyword hot search index, major forum topics and game data, "Minecraft" is still full of stamina, with a lot of content output every day, and the player base continues to spread.

The most inexplicable thing in this should be Yan Zhenyuan, the designer of "A Thousand Prisons".

In terms of investment and game quality, "A Thousand Hells" is definitely better than "Minecraft", and in terms of market feedback, player taste, professional reviews, etc., "A Thousand Hells" is definitely a game with no shortcomings.

But the problem is, it just doesn't fire.

If you follow the normal development trend, although the price of "A Thousand Hells" is higher than that of "Minecraft", it is still within the normal price range of VR games after all, and there is no reason to suffer because of this.

But this game is a little less in all kinds of data, and it makes a lot of money, but it is completely suppressed by "Minecraft" in terms of topicality, and even gives many players the illusion that ""A Thousand Prisons" is already cold.

This point, even Yan Zhenyuan himself couldn't figure it out, and in the end it could only be boiled down to two words: "metaphysics".

And when many people talk about this matter, they all remember what Chen Mo said at the new game conference before.

"A Thousand Hells is really fun, it's a game that is going to top the best-selling list, and it's sure to be a hit!"

Everyone was wondering, could it be that Chen Mo's poisonous milk was working?

It's not that evil, is it?

Although it was just a joke, the impression of "Chen Mo's poisonous milk" began to take root in the hearts of many people.

……

On the official Minecraft forum, a post has sparked a heated discussion among players.

Post title:So touched! A gift from Mr. Chen Mo, a designer, to my daughter Nini.

This post was posted by Nini's father, not only detailing the whole process at that time, but also attaching a small video.

The video was filmed by her father on his mobile phone, and in the footage, Nini is playing Minecraft with a tablet, concentrating on building a house inside. It can be seen that Nini's skills in building houses have improved, and she has even built a city wall that looks good out of stone blocks.

After this post was published, it quickly caused a heated discussion among players.

"Wow, Nini is so cute!"

Chen Mo also gave Nini a gift, the mobile version of "Minecraft"? Oh my God, Chen Mo is so warm, he wants to get married! ”

"Yes, Chen Mo is so warm, I want to be in the day!"

"Nini is so talented in architecture, this house is built in a decent way, I feel that this game should be able to develop intelligence, right?"

"Children should not play with the mobile phone for too long, it is not good for the eyes, this father, you have to look at Nini more."

"Why are your focuses straying? Shouldn't the point be that Minecraft has a mobile version?! ”

"Yes, I also want to ask, "Minecraft" obviously has a mobile version, when is Chen Mo going to release it? I also want to be able to build a house anytime, anywhere! ”

"yes, hurry up and release the mobile version! Let's play it even for those of us who don't have a VR game pod! ”

"That's right, I was still struggling with whether to buy a game cabin, but now I don't have to worry about it, ask for a mobile version!"

The topic evolved to the end, and everyone was urging Chen Mo to release the mobile version of "Minecraft" quickly.

Although Minecraft is very popular and dominates various video and live streaming sites, there is still a large percentage of players who have never played the game at all.

The reason is simple, there are no VR game pods.

Among the gamers who have a PC, there is only 1 game pod for every 5 people, which means that only 20% of the people can play this game, and everyone else can only watch it on live streaming sites and video sites.

These people are itching in their hearts, and they can't wait to join Minecraft, prove their architectural talents, and be admired by thousands of people.

However, the bar is too high.

If you want to play this game, there are only two ways, one way is to buy a VR game pod and then spend 128 yuan to buy the game. Another way is to spend 128 yuan to buy a game, and then go to a VR Internet café to play, starting at 50 yuan per hour.

But the problem is that "Minecraft" is not the kind of game that sells feelings and experiences, its own production level is not particularly outstanding, the main fun must be played long enough to be reflected, and it is very painful to go to an Internet café to play.

Therefore, these greedy players, limited by their wallets, are still hesitating and have not really made up their minds.

There are also some professionals and technical experts who have analyzed that although the gameplay of "Minecraft" itself is very rich, the technical difficulty is not high, and there is no problem in porting it to the PC platform. Porting to the mobile platform may require some deletions, but the core gameplay can definitely be retained.

Therefore, everyone is speculating that Chen Mo must be going to make the PC version and the mobile version, if he doesn't do it, then there will definitely be other companies that will seize this opportunity to make copycat games on PC and mobile phones, and Chen Mo's IQ will not drop to this extent.

After Nini's video was released, players were even more completely sure that Chen Mo had plans to develop a mobile version of "Minecraft", and it was almost completed.

In the eager anticipation of players, Chen Mo posted on Weibo to confirm the news that the PC, mobile and overseas versions of "Minecraft" have been developed, and it is scheduled to be officially launched on September 28th!

Moreover, Chen Mo also mentioned that the three platforms will be completely interoperable.

After getting the news, players were simply overjoyed, and the VR party posted a large number of popular science game strategy posts on the forum for popular science, and those players who had never played Minecraft before were also eagerly looking forward to the release of the PC and mobile game versions.
