While Yang Huan was depressed in Southampton, a round of heated debate was going on in the headquarters office of Metacritic, a well-known rating website, in the United States, far across the Atlantic.

"I think this game deserves a perfect score!" A chubby female staff member said very passionately.

"That's right, even if you don't have a perfect score, at least 90 points or more." Another female staff member responded.

"If I were to rate it, I would think it's 96 points, and it's my favorite mobile game I've ever played."

"My word, ninety-four points."

There are not many people in the office, and there are only a few women in total, but the opinions are very unanimous, and they all give high ratings.

This made the other male colleagues in the office a little dumbfounded, is it reasonable to give such a high?

"Wait, wait!"

Jason, the person in charge of the website? Dietz stood up and signaled to fellow female compatriots not to get excited.

"You know, my world is only ninety-three." Jason? Dietz waited until everyone had calmed down before he reminded.

Minecraft, a well-known mobile game from Sweden, has been very famous since the time of testing.

Most talked about, this game opens up a whole new way to play, and it can almost be said that it is a revolutionary game that everyone knows.

But such a game only scored ninety-three points.

Could it be that WeChat's match-3 game Candy Crush Legend is really better than Minecraft?

"Jason is right, a game like Minecraft is only ninety-three points, and Candy Crush Saga is eighty points at most."

"Eighty points? Oh my God, it's high, right? What's new in this game? Match-3 mode is very common, okay? ”

"I also think that there really isn't anything too revolutionary about this game to give you too high a score."

"Relatively speaking, I think their other game, Zhilong Maze, is very interesting and should be given a high score."

Several female compatriots listened and immediately disagreed.

"Hey, you're saying there's no innovation in Candy Crush Saga?"

"Oh my God, where are your eyes looking? There are so many small details of innovation, you can't see it? ”

"That is, it's the same match-3, how can others not have this effect? Isn't innovation in small details called innovation? ”

"I remember, as you say, what contribution did Watt have to the Industrial Revolution? The steam engine is not his name! ”

"That is, small innovation is not innovation? So many small innovations have been accumulated, and they are still called no innovations? ”

The male compatriots immediately began to refute it.

"We didn't say that the game didn't innovate, we just said that it didn't have too eye-catching innovation, ok?"

"I think I have to admit that this is a well-made game, and the picture is almost the screen of Apple's Iphone4 to the extreme, which is very good, and there are quite a lot of small innovations, and the charging point is not boring, but I can't say anything about giving high marks to these."

"Marco was right, this is a game that is about making money, not a revolutionary way to play in Minecraft."

"It's like a Hollywood movie, some are commercial blockbusters that are rushing to make money, and some are trying to hit the Oscars, and the two obviously can't be confused."

Fellow women have found a point of counterattack again.

"Okay, Charles, what do you think of Christopher? Nolan's Batman series? ”

Charles was immediately speechless.

"There's no comparison, there are definitely films that have reached a certain level of height, both artistically and commercially, but I think this candy saga is clearly a commercial blockbuster that is going to make money, like Transformers."

"On the contrary, I think the dragon maze is very interesting and innovative, but for the time being, this game is not pleasant."

Marko's remarks were immediately echoed by a burst of male compatriots.

In less than three weeks, Candy Crush Saga has exceeded 10 million downloads, while Wisdom Dragon Maze has been distributed for several months, but it has only been distributed in limited areas such as New Zealand, Australia, and Canada, with only 500,000 downloads.

"But from our women's point of view, I think this game is very good, much better than the Dragon's Maze."

"Oh, that's what you women think, that's all!" The male compatriots retorted.

"Hey, what do you mean? Look down on women, don't you? ”

Immediately, a female compatriot pointed at him and asked, "I sue you, women can hold up half the sky!" ”

"I didn't mean it that way, I just ......"

"So what do you mean?

Jason? Dietz watched the two gangs arguing one by one, and he felt a headache.

He had no idea that a game would divide its originally united team into two factions.

However, if you look at the 73% percentage of Candy Crush Saga's players who are women, you know.

As Yang Huan said in the advertisement, this is a game specially tailored for female players.

The British paparazzi also photographed that even Princess Kate, who had just completed the wedding of the century, was playing this game.

One can imagine how popular this game is in the minds of female gamers right now.

"Everyone, be quiet." Jason? Dietz had to shout at the halt.

If you continue to argue like this, it will not come to fruition.

Instead of a result, there may be a big fight.

Because in the end, there must be the issue of gender discrimination between men and women.

"According to the reviews of the 30 media outlets and websites we work with, they generally give this game a score of around 80, which is considered an excellent smartphone game, but it is far from a high score."

As soon as the boss spoke, the men and women in the office immediately turned off the fire.

"On the contrary, the score of Zhilong Maze is relatively high, reaching eighty-five points."

Jason? As soon as Dietz finished speaking, the chubby female employee immediately complained, "That's because major review media and websites are evaluating a game from a man's point of view." ”

Jason? Dietz smiled, "Yes, that's right, so we'll have to accept that reality too, Mary." ”

The woman named Mary had no choice but to nod.

Who called this a man's power world?

"But it's up to you to review this game, Mary."

When Mary heard this, she was immediately happy, and nodded incessantly, "OK, leave it to me!" ”

"I'll leave it to you, Marko!"

"OK, no problem!" Marco nodded in agreement.

Charles noticed another problem.

"Boss, if these two games are given excellent scores, then their game company's annual ranking will surpass Nintendo."

In addition to the review of the game itself, the rating site also has a ranking of the game manufacturer.

Previously, WeChat Game Company relied on the two popular games of Rope Cutting and Temple Escape, and rushed to the third place on the annual list in one go, but now before the end of the list, these two games have been launched, which are bound to pass Nintendo.

"Isn't it?" Jason? Dietz was a little surprised.

Immediately walked in front of a computer, opened the website casually, flipped through the list of game developers, and then mentally calculated the improvement of these two games after joining, it will indeed pass Nintendo.

Blizzard, the famous PC game company, is only in fifth place.

"Boss ......"

Almost everyone was dumbfounded.

Nintendo, this is a giant in the field of games, and how many classic games have been made that are both acclaimed and acclaimed.

As a result, in less than a year, it was overtaken by a newly created game company?

But judging by the annual ratings, this is indeed the case.

Jason? Dietz was also struggling, because he could guess that if he did, Nintendo fans and Blizzard diehards would be upset, and their saliva would flood his site.

However, he thought about it and decided.

"Do it!" Jason? Dietz sighed, "We do reviews, and we'll give you the truth, and as for the players' reactions, they'll understand." ”

After a pause, he thought about it again, "Candy Saga gives eighty points, and Zhilong Maze gives eighty-four points." ”

No one at the scene said anything more, and they all went silently.

…………

…………

IOS opens the community.

"Oh my God, Metacritic is going against the sky!"

A user posted on the site and took a screenshot of the Metacritic rating.

"WeChat Game Company is really going to blow up the sky this time, the scores of cutting the rope and the escape of the temple are already very high, all of them are over eighty points, reaching the excellent level, and now Candy Legend and Zhilong Maze have also passed eighty points respectively."

Judging from the screenshots, the highest rating of WeChat Game Company is still Cutting the Rope, reaching 86 points.

"It's incredible, four games have been made, and each of them has reached the excellent level, which makes the total score of WeChat Games Company have passed Nintendo, ranking first on the annual list of creators!"

As soon as this post was published, it immediately attracted countless divers to bubble up and follow.

"I've seen it too, this game company is amazing."

"Haha, I've always felt that smartphone games are the future, and now WeChat over Nintendo is the best proof of this!"

"Big WeChat V five-eight-seven, it's too good!"

"I'm also optimistic about the mobile platform, WeChat games have been over Nintendo, and WeChat will soon be over Facebook and Twitter, you guys wait!"

"What about those people who said that Jiang Lang of WeChat Company was exhausted? Why is it all gone? ”

"As soon as the rat brothers saw that the situation was wrong, they all went back to the ground one by one."

"Wait, when there will be some unfavorable news, they will still come out!"

"This is a grand event for the opening of the Ios industry, everyone should give it publicity, I think there will definitely be more Ios game start-ups in the future to enter this list!"

"I like the games of WeChat Game Company, I have all their games, including jerking off, and I play them whenever I have time!"

"Great! Congratulations to WeChat Games! ”

"Even Princess Kate is playing a game, you can't give a high score!"

"The company's games are really classic, and it's worth learning from, and I've heard that they already have a very complete set of mobile users, and I believe they will get better and better in the future!"

"At the very least, they're the most lucrative mobile game starters right now."

As soon as this news opened a community fryer in Ios, it immediately spread.

One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and soon spread all over the Internet.

Metacritic's ratings have always been valued by many people, but this time it has caused quite a bit of controversy.

Especially for a company that has been established for less than a year and has only made four mobile games, it has passed the two golden signs of Nintendo and Blizzard, which makes the die-hard fans of the two game manufacturers very dissatisfied.

Some people have even attacked rating sites, believing that their reviews are biased.

Jason? Mr. Dietz was pressured to come forward for an interview, and he denied that the site's reviews were unbiased.

"We combined the scores of 30 independent review agencies, media outlets and websites to give the final score, I don't think there's anything wrong with that? As for saying that WeChat game companies have passed Nintendo and Blizzard, this is only an annual ranking! ”

But even with this explanation, it still can't satisfy many netizens.

Soon, some netizens immediately dug up a new fierce news.
