The Era of the Second Element of the Literary Girl

　　 late August.

　　 After completing the acquisition of station B...

　　 In addition to the original team moving to the Magic Entertainment headquarters, it also needs to recruit new staff for the B station operation team, such as website editors, art artists, programmers, publicity and distribution teams, and so on. However, these are the aspects her sister will arrange, and Li Xiaoci does not need to worry about it.

　　 What Li Xiaoci needs to do now is to quickly write the extra scrolls of other characters before the finale of "My Sister" animation arrives.

　　 By that time, these extra-special contents will be sold in electronic version on the official website of Light Literature on the day of the finale of the Black Cat Line, while the physical book version of the library version will be delayed for a few days.

　　 In this way, it is guaranteed that every reader can enjoy double happiness on the day of the animation finale!

　　 Then, Li Xiaoci couldn't help feeling...

　　 look!

　　 look!

　　 Where can I find a conscientious author like myself in this world? !

　　 The scolding was so cool on Weibo, and when I saw the old man’s hard work, I turned around and apologized to the old man!

　　……

　　 Then, during the period when codewords and fish-fishing were alternated, Moqi's side was getting closer and closer to the day when Plants vs. Zombies went online on the official website.

There is no steam in this world. Therefore, all players buy games by purchasing activation codes and downloading them on the homepage of the game company’s official website. Of course, there are also piracy, but it will not be rampant. After all, people now have a good sense of piracy. All have the ability to support the original version, and there are still relatively few playing pirated versions.

　　 As for game promotion, there are generally two forms.

　　 First of all, the information and evaluation of major game media, such as some information videos from the media in the game circle, and evaluation articles on X.net and Mob Star.

　　 Secondly, game companies find other publicity channels themselves. For example, large-scale games generally publish PVs and find people to advertise.

　　Basically, these two methods will determine the level of expectation of a game before the release.

After the release, it can only rely on word of mouth and tap water, but for small indie games, word of mouth is more important than publicity in many cases. After all, the eyes of the game house are discerning, and excellent quality works are worth recommending to others. .

　　 And the predecessor of Magic Company, "Sakura Game" itself has produced several good small indie games, and the reputation is still reasonable, and it still has a little status in the game circle. In addition, Shenying Games has inexplicably turned into Moqi Entertainment, and it has also made the acquisition of station B. Therefore, the game circle is also very curious about the new games that Moqi will launch.

　　……

"Sen Liu" is a game editor of the game media "Mob Star", generally responsible for evaluating some upcoming games, and then writing the scores and feelings and posting them on the website information, so that players can screen and buy themselves reasonably Favorite game.

　　 As "Plants vs. Zombies" is about to hit the shelves, Sen Liu also quickly got the game itself from Moqi.

　　 The scores of the game media do not necessarily represent the quality of the game itself, but it is easy to guide the trend of comments. Therefore, Mori will generally maintain an objective attitude towards any game.

　　 However, after opening Plants vs. Zombies, he still couldn't help thinking... Isn't this a 4399 mini game? !

　　 How does it look so stupid?

When it was still "Sakura Game", Senliu also played a lot of independent games developed by this company. Generally, the painting style is very beautiful, and at first glance it gives people a very compelling feeling, like It is the same as Monument Valley in Li Xiaoci's previous life.

　　 How did he develop such a spooky ghost after becoming "Magic Entertainment"?

　　Magic, is this going to enter 4399, or 7K7K?

　　I think so, but after the game really started, Mori still curbed his contemptuous thoughts and was ready to take a serious look at the game.

　　 The game operation method is very simple, plant sunflowers to collect sunlight, and then exchange plant cards to defend against zombies.

　　 In essence, this is actually a 2D tower defense game.

　　 After playing for a while, Sen Liu also suddenly felt...

　　 Although the style of painting looks very naive, no different from web games, but the unexpected feeling is okay?

　　 Well, let's play for another ten minutes.

　　 Then...

　　 Before I knew it, an afternoon passed.

　　 He didn't even notice it.

　　 At first, Sen Liu thought this was a small game for children that didn't need any IQ, but after being eaten by zombies a few times... he also suddenly realized that this game does not seem to be that simple.

　　 Then, in addition to feeling the game, he also carefully analyzed many places.

　　 First of all, Plants vs. Zombies is definitely a game that requires IQ to play. Whether it is the allocation of resources, the matching of plants, or the battle formation, it requires players to think carefully before making a decision. Secondly, a large number of zombie types, plant types and map types also increase the game's durability. What's more, in addition to the adventure mode, there are also seasonings such as decryption, mini games, survival and garden modes, which are enough to make people not feel bored after playing for a long time.

　　Thinking about it...

　　 Is Plants vs. Zombies actually a really awesome game? !

　　 At this moment, Mori also felt very tangled.

　　 In fact, based on his first impression, he would never give Plants vs. Zombies a passing score of 6 or more, because just showing off would be very persuasive. However, after playing it, he suddenly felt that, in terms of playability, even if it was made for 9 points, it didn't seem to be too much? At least in his opinion, when it comes to tower defense games, Plants vs. Zombies should be the most fun he has ever played.

However, to be honest, the art style of this game is not very in line with the current aesthetics of the industry. It has to be forced, not milky, or milky. Even the name of the game is stupid, just like any mentally handicapped game downloaded from a small game website. , It is estimated that many game houses are not interested when they glance at the screenshots of the game.

　　 Therefore, to score high in this situation is actually a matter of courage. What if the game sales are still violent? What if your score is too high and it looks too outstanding in a bunch of game media reviews? After being slapped in the face, didn't it appear that he was very incompetent?

　　 But...

　　 Forget it!

　　 Give it 9 points. Anyway, if you don’t need money, it’s a big bet!

　　……

　　 A few days later, the major game media's evaluation scores for the upcoming independent game "Plants vs. Zombies" will soon be released.

　　You X Net: 6.5 points, Donkey Net: 7 points, 4DM: 7.2 points, Mob Star Sky: 9 points...

　　Basically, all game media sites gave a moderately high conservative score~www.novelmt.com~On the mob starry sky side, it was uncharacteristically given a 9-point, which is the rating of the gods.

　　 "Fuck, this game has such a high score?! Even 9 points of magic come out? So awesome?"

　　 "It's not good for me to see the screenshots of the game. I'm afraid this mob is not collecting money."

　　 "I also think that money is being collected. A tower defense game blows up like this?"

　　 "Looking at other people's scores, it will pass the line. The mob star gives 9 points. This is too obvious to collect money!"

　　 "Just this style of painting, I don't want to play."

　　 "To be honest, at this glance, I thought I saw 4399."

　　 "Look at the screenshots of the game, mom! This kind of small game, if the sales can exceed 100,000, I will lose it! Still nine points? Grandma Jiu Li!"

　　 After all, Plants vs. Zombies, from the name to the art style, can only be said to be very general. In this case, if all the media consistently give high scores, then players will be suspicious. However, most of the media gave the upper-middle score, and only the Mob Star gave a score of nine, which makes it look like the Mob Star has collected money.

　　This has caused Plants vs. Zombies to have aroused considerable controversy in the game house community even though it has not yet been released.

　　 As for Li Xiaoci, when he was fishing, he also saw these comments in the game circle.

　　 Xiao Da Mao suddenly became unhappy.

　　Mom, so multimedia, it's actually a little insightful!

　　What about other media? There are only a few lines in each review article. The advantages of Plants vs. Zombies are not mentioned, and the content introduction is limited to novice tutorials... Is it all perfunctory play for a few minutes, and just write some content?

　　 Hmph, a group of spicy chicken websites!

　　 I bought you all when I turned around.
