Chapter 475(1/2)
474. It's really what I imagined
Sunday, April 5, 2009.
"Ghost Blows Out the Light" that Bomi Company has been looking forward to finally launch.
Since it is the highlight of Bomi Company this year, and it has been promoted and made a long time ago, the media and players are looking forward to the way Ghost Blows Out the Light will look in the actual game.
On the day it was released, many live broadcast platforms and anchors were ready to play the game early, striving to become the first person to broadcast "Ghost Blows Out the Light".
Traffic is money.
Before the emergence of the live broadcast on Station A, people could not imagine this sentence, but now with the live broadcast, many products have become popular, and more and more competitors have joined this ranks, which has also made many Internet giants see this space.
So outside of Station A, YY and Huya have also joined the ranks of live broadcast platforms, and there are more and more competitors in this fast market.
Then, beyond Cao Yang's expectations, but it is reasonable. Xu Yi, the founder of B station, also successfully established a small break station in March this year. Relying on specific service tendencies and understanding of the target population, although B station's current development momentum is not as strong as in previous lives, it is quite good.
Like A Station, bilibili is also a barrage video website. Because it focuses on two-dimensional culture, it has attracted many young people to register.
Since its establishment in March, more than 3,000 registered users have accumulated.
If it weren't for the strict answer screening requirements for joining B station, the number of registrations would have been higher.
Simply put, although B station B is still like a newborn baby compared to A station, Xu Yi himself probably never thought about what B station will develop in the future, but this niche with a clear two-dimensional tendency has very strong vitality and is still growing vigorously.
Although B station has not been opened, of course, there is no technology or funding to support them in establishing a live broadcast platform for the time being. However, B station’s video quality and UP host’s quality are relatively high, so it can still attract many loyal users, which will lay a solid foundation for the future development of B station.
However, in this new timeline, everything has variables. The biggest variable is that the current A station has not repeated the mistakes of the previous life, so B station will definitely encounter great resistance and pressure when it comes to the future.
...
Many loyal fans have gathered in Miss Zi Yu’s live broadcast room, preparing to watch her perform the first-hand "Ghost Blows Out the Light" game for everyone.
In fact, a week ago, the live broadcast announcement about Ghost Blowing Light had been released.
After all, this is also a world-class game this year. Not only Chinese players are looking forward to it, but foreign players are also looking forward to it.
It can even be said that foreign players have higher expectations than domestic ones.
In fact, the reason is very simple. First of all, due to the theme of ghost blowing lights, there are certain horror elements plus too many action elements and puzzle solving elements. This can be seen from official promotional videos and related media reports.
The tags posted to "Ghost Blows Out the Light" on Bomi's AIR game platform are also horror + action + puzzles + others. It is precisely because of these elements that Ghost Blows Out the Light is destined to be a relatively "niche" game.
There are not many players who can accept horror elements and difficult action games. If Bomi Company is not famous enough, plus the large number of users of the book Ghost Blowing Light and the relevant publicity is more in place, there will definitely be only a very small number of people who follow it.
For horror action puzzle games, foreign players love and accept more than domestic players.
Take the Tomb Raider, which is very popular all over the world, as for example, the 8th work of Tomb Raider last year, "Tomb Raider: Underground World", sold 4.23 million worldwide, of which the number of Chinese players was less than 100,000.
Moreover, there are much more players in China than abroad, so you can imagine how low this purchase is than in China.
Fortunately, Bomi Company has a world-class game platform, otherwise it would be a waste of time to develop and operate the game "Ghost Blows Out the Light" if it is replaced by any domestic company.
According to Cao Yang's idea, if "Ghost Blows Out the Light" can go to the world because of its playability and quality, it will be considered a cultural output.
I hope to take advantage of this wave of popularity to promote the Ghost Blowing Light.
Therefore, since the beginning of the production of Ghost Blowing Lights has not only been a game for domestic players to play. After the production was completed, Bomi Company also found voiceovers from many different countries, completing the localization of languages in more than 20 different countries, with only one goal-
This is to allow more players who like this type of game not to miss this game due to language barriers.
This matter alone took a lot of time and money from the production team.
The main reason is that the translation is not low at all.
In addition, various local dialects are not as good as translating and dubbing in other countries.
If you think about it carefully, Hu Bayi was actually quite funny when speaking authentic English.
...
Miss Zi Yu’s game is still being installed, but the live broadcast room has already started chatting.
Zi Yu was waiting for the game to be installed while interacting with netizens.
"Tell me, ah, you can really make it a terrible game called a weak girl to live broadcast such a terrible game." Miss Zi Yu teased with a smile.
When I heard the anchor’s words, the live broadcast room immediately became excited.
"Yes, a weak girl, two small short knives cut over the famous generals of Zhao State, defeated the First Emperor, and killed all kinds of people and robbed people. Is this called weakness?"
"Hahaha, yes, when the "Assassin's Soul" series was broadcast before, why didn't Comrade Zi Yu call her weak?"
"I think there are many monsters in the Assassin's Soul. I was shocked when Li Mu turned into Spider-Man. I still had nightmares at night. Zi Yu was not like this now."
"Maybe it was because of the assassin that had been a long time, and he had killed too many people. Now he is starting to be afraid of ghosts. Hahaha."
"There are no ghosts inside the lights."
"Who said that there are no ghosts in the ghost blowing light? What's the ghost blowing light without ghosts?"
...
Soon the topic was shifted to whether there were ghosts in the ghost blowing light, and the live broadcast room became even more lively.
After about half an hour, Zi Yu's game has been installed and you can play games.
She looked up and sighed, "Good, this game actually has 36 G. Bomi's game is getting more and more outrageous."
Bomi Company is also very thoughtful. The launch time is 0:00 a.m. on April 5th. According to the current network transmission speed, the game can be almost finished in 10 hours.
And it has to be a better situation in the Internet.
Zi Yu hung out all night, and it was already past 1 pm when it was well.
Seeing that the download progress was almost the same, she started a live broadcast, but unexpectedly, many people came in just over half an hour.
I guess the progress of other anchors is similar to hers.
Zi Yu hasn't started the game yet, and the live broadcast room has already discussed about ghost blowing lights:
"Do you think the time Bomi Company chose is a bit too late?"
"I think it's okay. Many of Bomi's games are in a very indifferent place. Have you forgotten the Three Kingdoms online at the beginning? The online time is in the early morning."
"The Qingming Festival every year is about April 4th to April 6th, and this year's Qingming Festival is April 4th. The launch date of Bomi's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is one day later than the official Qingming Festival. It is really hard to convince if it was not intentional."
"That's right, the Qingming Festival was just celebrated yesterday, and today I'm going to "Ghost Blows Out the Light". Bomi Company must have done it on purpose."
"Yes, it's too late. Although I haven't played this game yet, I'm already scared now."
"It would be better if you didn't rush to the Qingming Festival. Wouldn't it be even more terrifying if it was put on the Qingming Festival?"
"I've bought it, but I heard that this game is too scary and I don't dare to play it at all. Let's see how the anchor reacts first."
"Anyway, the original work is quite terrible. I can't sleep even after reading it."
"I advise you timid people not to buy this game. You are even afraid of reading novels. How scared should you not play games?"
"Yes, I've read the official video and some media trial reports. The ghost blowing light game is still very scary, especially the atmosphere is quite real. With the music together, if you play alone at home, you will probably be scared out of your psychological shadow."
"I'll give you a friendly suggestion. Before you start the Ghost Blowing Light, you can try to practice your skills with the Resident Evil series. If you can be immune to Resident Evil, then you can play Ghost Blowing Light."
"Tsk, you guys seem to have played ghost blowing lights."
"Hahaha, that's right, anyway, you'll know how this game will be like and you'll see the anchor's live broadcast later."
...
After the game download and installation is completed, there is an additional game icon for ghost blowing lights on the desktop.
The icon is an image of a gold-touching charm, but it is not a realistic pangolin's claw, but an icon image similar to a fang-shaped shape with a certain metal texture and a heavy feeling. With the three words "Ghost Blowing the Light" with a very freehand feeling, a historical heavy feeling immediately came to my face.
The game opens, the screen turns black, and then the logo of Bomi slowly appears
Then there is a relatively rare logo with a sense of technology and a sense of second-generation-
pioneer.
Although Trail Blazers have been established for two years, this is the first time you have seen their logo.
"Trail Blazers? Why haven't you heard of this name?"
"Yes, when I heard "Ghost Blows Out the Light", I thought it was made by Bomi's national style studio. Why is it the icon of the Trail Blazer?"
"The Trail Blazers may be a sub-studio under Guofeng Studio. After all, there are so many workshops in Guofeng Studio."
"You are ignorant, right? The Trail Blazers seem to be the fifth largest studio group of Bomi Company, the kind that is on par with the Guofeng Studio Group."
"Huh? Why haven't you heard of it?"
"It means you don't play mobile games very much. Bomi's smartphones came with several games when they were first released. It seems that the Thunder Fighter was made by Trail Blazers Studio."
"More than that, "Minecraft", which was very popular last year, is also a work of the Trail Blazers Studios group."
"Hey? Really fake? Then this studio is pretty good."
"That's sure. Bomi Company can set up this new studio group. Now those who can join Bomi are all industry big players, otherwise they will be top talents."
...
After Zi Yu clicked to start the game, she entered the opening CG animation.
The wind whistles, mixed with snowflakes in the sky.
