From the Cemetery of Ash to the Undead Settlement, How Much Malice Did You Feel from the Old Dev?
On the first day of Dark Souls' release, this post went viral and hit the trending search!
Many victims rushed to the comment section to accuse the old dev and recount their suffering.
"I'll go first! The Buggy Veyron! It rushed out at me when I was holding a tree branch and wearing rags. Can you imagine how desperate I was? (300k likes)"
"Gundyr!! Especially the second phase, the Abyss Watchers, it's a nightmare for newcomers, mind you! A nightmare for newcomers! (450k likes)"
"My Three-Hit Brother definitely deserves a spot on the list. Victims, please give a thumbs-up on the bottom right! (470k likes)"
"Mimic! rn/
"Is this a record?"
"Summoning of the Fate' sold 8 million copies on its first day! Can only the old dev beat the old dev?"
"That's because Tencent didn't participate in the 3A market. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easy?"
"Covering myself with a small quilt under the bridge, smearing tears inside the small quilt. After smearing the tears, it doesn't matter, whatever you say, I'll say 'you're right, you're right!'"
"You're truly a little genius, you've vanished me. Advanced Ninjutsu!"
.......
Shortly after hitting the trending searches, the comment section was instantly filled.
Thirty billion a day. It's impossible not to be tempted. The Pig Factory's tears flowed from the corners of their mouths with envy.
Tencent was also tempted, but everyone knew that 3A indie games only made money once, and the continuous monetization and absorption capacity of mobile and online games were vastly different.
No matter how tempted, they were unwilling to act.
Glancing at the comment section, Lu Li closed the messages and then brought up the system panel.
"Collecting thirty million resentment points in a day. Not bad, not bad. As expected of Dark Souls, the emotion points are increasing almost constantly."
Lu Li nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he released the background of Dark Souls 1 as a DLC.
First Flame, Lords of Cinder, Linking the Fire – the complete story arc was filled in. The subsequent filling and expansion of the worldview were left to the Souls scholars.
After doing this, he glanced at the overseas data.
The first-day overseas sales were 9 million, a full three times that of Escape From Tarkov's first day!
The overseas version of Lingjing Game Platform saw an increase of 50 million downloads!
However, Steam's stock price eventually stabilized.
Gabe Newell posted on Twitter, stating that Escape From Tarkov did not lose to Dark Souls in quality, but to the era, as this era chose the torture-style game, which he found perplexing.
A heartfelt speech instantly garnered sympathy from millions of loyal game fans.
Some even maliciously smeared Dark Souls, reporting it for disrespecting players, but this was quickly suppressed by a joint effort from eight universities.
As if they were playing with my cash cow!
You're going to have a bad time!
Regarding the layout of the foreign game market, Lu Li planned to use the torture-style to conquer the existing market to its extreme.
At least to capture over 90% of the torture-style game market.
The rest would be divided among other game developers.
90% might seem like a lot, but it only accounts for less than a tenth of the entire game genre market.
The major share still belonged to traditional games.
And based on his past-life experience, the torture-style game could at least capture one-third of the game market, standing in a three-way standoff with other types of games.
In the future, when VR games are released, torture-style games will still be mainstream.
To be honest, he was even a little impatient.
After all, he hadn't experienced the charm of VR games in his previous life either.
"I hope that day comes soon,"
Lu Li murmured, shifting his gaze from the backend data to the Shark live stream, the curve of his lips gradually widening.
Logically,
The first echelon should be close to seeing the Onion Knight, right?
This is another foreshadowing buried after the Crestfallen Warrior.
A little stab, a little stab.
It doesn't hurt.
Heh heh heh...
