Qing Shan Qu Zui
Chapter 289 We need English!
Qiao Liang updated the first episode of his complete walkthrough video for "Reversal is Nigh," then refreshed the page with satisfaction, watching the comments and bullet screens from the netizens, waiting for the popularity of this video to keep rising.
The comments section quickly became lively.
"First!"
"Finally! I'm so moved!"
"Ah, Old Qiao's video is finally here, let's give it a thumbs up first!"
"Old Qiao's game strategy is so clear, no wonder he studied it specifically."
"Indeed, Teacher Qiao's video is well-prepared. He basically experiences the game from the perspective of a disabled player, and he also has good tips for passing some difficult places. It's so timely!"
"Very professional, and also buried a lot of plot foreshadowing, giving you 66 likes!"
"Brain: I learned it! Hand: No, you didn't."
"I feel like I'm not playing the same game as Old Qiao... Why does he play so easily?"
Feeling the rainbow farts from the netizens, Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel proud of himself.
I am a professional game commentator, can I be the same as others?
Qiao Liang himself was also very satisfied with this video.
This video is not a video that focuses on showing off skills, but stands in the position of an ordinary player and finds a relatively easy way to pass the level for everyone.
Of course, for some special monsters, Qiao Liang will save the game first, and then pass the level in various ways to show everyone many different ways to fight.
In addition, some details and Easter eggs buried in the game, even the textual research on the official novel, or the speculation on some doubts, have also become quite brilliant parts of the video.
Watching the number of fans grow rapidly, Qiao Liang felt both gratified and proud.
Who should I thank?
Of course, I want to thank President Pei!
If President Pei hadn't called me to Jingzhou to experience the game in advance, how could I be so much faster than other up hosts?
Qiao Liang couldn't help but think that if President Pei hadn't let him experience it in advance, he should still be stumbling and trying to pass the level at this time, being abused by the game to the point of death.
That's why President Pei is like family!
Not only did he invite me to experience the game, but he also repeatedly modified the game based on my opinions.
This game can be so successful, there must be a part of my contribution in it, right?
Rounding it off, can I, Qiao, also hang a title of "Reversal is Nigh Assistant Designer"?
Or "Reversal is Nigh Special Tester"?
Yeah, yeah, both are good!
Qiao Liang randomly flipped through a few fans' cards and interacted with the comments section.
Soon, this video, which was called the "strongest show in October" by the audience, began to rise on the rankings, first landing on the game area ranking, and then quickly sprinting towards the Ellie Island's overall ranking!
Qiao Liang flipped through the videos on the list and suddenly saw a familiar up host name.
It's Hao Shuaiqi!
His video title is: When a foreign up host broadcasts "Reversal is Nigh" live on linklive.
Currently, the popularity of the video is also soaring, closely following Qiao Liang's walkthrough video.
"Oh, this guy's efficiency is quite fast. Let me see how the international friend is playing."
Qiao Liang clicked on the video.
I have to say, Hao Shuaiqi lives up to his name, he is indeed quite handsome, but he feels a bit silly and very good at creating program effects.
This foreign spirited young man edited his live recording on linklive, and then added subtitles and special effects to post it on Ellie Island.
Obviously, Hao Shuaiqi's video is completely different from Teacher Qiao's.
Teacher Qiao's video is a walkthrough video, the rhythm is not very fast, but the content is very compact, the entire route is planned, everything seems to be going according to the script, making players exclaim "this game is so simple".
And Hao Shuaiqi's video is completely a first-time video, filled with scenes of various noobs being killed by monsters. In the live broadcast, he may die several times in front of a small monster, and Hao Shuaiqi streamlined these death shots and turned them all into program effects.
Hao Shuaiqi wrote his epitaph as "hedied", plus the expression captured by the camera, so that the audience saw their own shadow in the game in this video, and the program effect was quite explosive.
It can be seen from the bullet screen of the video that although Hao Shuaiqi has been dying, the audience feels particularly happy.
"Hahahaha, the streamer is dead again."
"It's me, that's right."
"This 'hedied' is very spiritual."
"It is recommended that the streamer change the epitaph to 'grass' or 'noob' in the second week, the effect will definitely be excellent!"
"Tengda Games promotes our country's power?"
"It's clearly making international friends suffer, destroying international relations!"
"Cause of death: This monster doesn't look very powerful."
"Came from Teacher Qiao's video next door, one dish for two meals, the program effect is explosive!"
"It's strange, I can't wait to smash the gamepad when I play this game myself, why is it so fun to watch others play?"
"Please, streamer, find someone to level up for you, I really can't stand it anymore!"
Hao Shuaiqi also prepared a large dictionary next to him, and opened a poetry query on the webpage, often having to check what it means when he encounters a plot.
In order to prevent foreigners from playing this game, Pei Qian deliberately added a lot of poetry and classical Chinese to the plot, and even hid some key puzzle-solving content of the side quests.
For Qiao Liang, although his classical Chinese skills are not very good, he still has a little bit of knowledge, and he can guess a rough idea by guessing.
But for Hao Shuaiqi, it was a matter of life and death. He often couldn't find it even after flipping through the dictionary for a long time, and he had to ask some classmates and enthusiastic viewers for help.
However, whenever Hao Shuaiqi finds the meaning of a poem and solves the puzzle, he will be particularly excited and feel very accomplished.
Pei Qian also thought about doing original poetry, so that it would be even more absolute, but there was no way, this thing is too demanding, he can't do it!
Even college students majoring in literature will not specifically learn to write poetry, and even if college students force themselves to write poems awkwardly, the effect will definitely be much worse than those classic poems of the ancients.
Moreover, Ma Yiqun and Zhu Xing'an are still busy writing the plot, and they don't have so much time to carefully write poems.
Therefore, the poems in the game are mainly selected some relatively unpopular ones, and at the same time, the meaning is more in line with the content, and directly embedded into the game.
Hao Shuaiqi relied on the dictionary and poetry query, and with a lot of effort, he really solved these puzzles.
Then he would explain the meaning of these puzzles to the audience in the live broadcast room, triggering a burst of "woo", "lol" or "awsome" exclamations.
Linklive does not have bullet screens, but viewers can still speak in the live broadcast room and interact with the streamer.
Hao Shuaiqi also very intimately recorded the speeches of these foreign viewers when watching the live broadcast, and regularly translated some more interesting comments and displayed them at the end of the video.
For example, at the end of this video, he showed a few messages from foreigners.
"Very interesting game, I hope to see more!"
"Can anyone give me the purchase address of this game?"
"It seems that this game is a game prepared for real players, which is eye-catching."
"It looks like the content is very rich, the feel and graphics are good, I can't wait to see the content behind!"
"weneedenglish!"
"日本語が必要!" (Japanese needed!)
Seeing these messages, Qiao Liang couldn't help but smile.
"Is it okay to play games while flipping through the dictionary?"
"It's time to let international friends also feel what it means to suffer!"
"But then again, this game is so hardcore, it's no wonder it suits the tastes of these foreign players."
"Give him a thumbs up."
Qiao Liang forwarded Hao Shuaiqi's video and happily蹭(ceng - take advantage of) each other's popularity.
…
Tengda Games.
Li Yada looked at the game's background data for "Reversal is Nigh", and then looked at the game's score on tpdb, and nodded with satisfaction.
Well, a thriving scene!
The background data is growing steadily, and while sales are rising, the refund rate is also rapidly declining. It was originally more than 20%, but now it is less than 10%.
The game's score on the tpdb website is also constantly changing. The current total score has reached 8.1 points, and it seems that it will continue to grow in the future.
The most important thing is that some media scores will appear in a few days.
Domestic game media have to evaluate this game, and the editors of the editorial department have to pass the game before they can evaluate it.
"Reversal is Nigh" is so difficult, the editors of the game media are also human, they can't pass the game in the short term and are embarrassed to evaluate it, so the media score has always been vacant.
If a few media give this game a high score, then the score on the tpdb website will definitely continue to grow.
"President Pei is indeed planning ahead."
"Although President Pei has not been in the company these past two days, the development of the game is completely in line with his expectations. Sure enough, this is the so-called confidence."
Li Yada couldn't help but sigh.
Clicking on the game's comments section again, she found that there were some popular comments.
"weneedenglish!"
Neat queues, and they are all comments from different IDs.
Li Yada couldn't help but be stunned.
At first, she thought that someone was deliberately making trouble, after all, this game has not been promoted abroad, where did the foreigners come from?
But after a rough look, she found that there were quite a few similar comments.
After careful research, Li Yada quickly determined the source.
An Ellie Island up host named "Hao Shuaiqi" is broadcasting "Reversal is Nigh" live on linklive, which has attracted the attention of some foreign players.
It seems that these foreigners are quite anxious, after all, if you don't understand Chinese, it is too difficult to play "Reversal is Nigh", and you can basically only give up the puzzle-solving content in the game.
Li Yada thought for a while, and felt that she had to report this matter to President Pei.
After all, the overseas market is also very broad.
As long as you spend some money to find a better translator, after the English version is made, you can find overseas distributors for promotion, and earn an extra sum of money.
Thinking of this, Li Yada decided to call President Pei.
After all, finding a translator and finding a distributor are not trivial matters, and they all cost money, so President Pei has to make the decision.
"Ask President Pei if we should make an English version."
