Chapter 295

But the old players are always losing.

This is an unavoidable problem for any online game.

Even if the fanatical gamer is determined to play online games all his life, if he can't make a living with online games, he will always compromise with reality with the passage of time. This kind of compromise is often in the period of getting married.

Most of the online game players and new players are male players, and if a man continues to play the game after he gets married, he will be easily seen as a loss of ambition. A man is bound to become a social animal, working hard to work overtime, paying the mortgage and car loan, raising children and so on. When everything is done, he suddenly looks back, but he is over 50 years old and white haired.

This is exactly "the setting sun is infinitely good, but it's just near dusk". Those who have good pension conditions can also have a colorful retirement life, but those who do not have enough pension conditions have to continue to work. After raising children, but also with grandchildren... So, life is really meaningless.

Any online game is always from the booming period of new players to the old age of old players. No matter how powerful the online game is, it can't avoid vulgarity《 This is true of legend, world of Warcraft, dungeons and warriors, and League of heroes. In the words of Blizzard, the great God of the industry, it is that there is no eternity in kingship.

Some of the online games of [tianshi.com] can't reach the classic level. The old players always lose one after another. With the loss of the old players, the game companies have to make more money. Just like Sohu Changyou's Tianlong Babu, in order to make money, a martial arts game is constantly increasing, and various systems cheat players to spend money to build it. Finally, the game data is completely deformed to collapse: the damage of the game's character playing skills is not as good as flat cutting.

[tianshi.com] has also fallen into the same dilemma as Sohu Changyou, a vicious circle. The more money is spent, the faster the old players will lose. The more money they lose, the more money they will lose. In this way, [tianshi.com] managed miserably and managed to survive. When its "journey to the west" and "dream Xiuxian" came to an end, it was also likely that [tianshi.com] came to an end.

Every terminally ill patient knows that he will die, but he will also strive to find a way to live and pray for God. In the same way, game companies are not willing to die, and tianshi.com has tried its best. However, today's online game market is very different from that of earlier years. Hundreds of online games can be produced every year, and Penguin empire's games almost monopolize the market, followed by Netease, perfect and other big companies to carve up the market. There are so many players. If tianshi.com can't produce revolutionary technology, it will be difficult to share the leftovers.

Compared with Skynet, Skynet's life is more miserable.

The development of the era is too fast. From the era of red alert, Diablo II and CS, the era of stand-alone games directly transited to the era of end game of legend and world of Warcraft. Later, it entered the era of page game and mobile game, and the stand-alone game industry became more and more depressed.

Because of the proliferation of piracy, most of Huaxia's stand-alone games have tried to get into the arms of online games, leaving behind 90% of the stand-alone game companies. Due to the lack of funds, it has been difficult for Huaxia's stand-alone game technology to be innovated. It is not a grade to use foreign 3A blockbusters.

Even if there are players who love stand-alone games, why not play foreign 3A blockbusters? Even Daewoo, once the overlord of China's stand-alone games, has such big IP as "Legend of swordsmen" and "Xuanyuan sword", but it can only live by selling feelings. It's 8012, and the game is still poor 3D modeling, garbage engine, slag like optimization can make Titan fall, and the combat system is the same round system for thousands of years. This has made people make complaints about Tucao.

Even the story of the legendary swordsman, which has been regarded as a classic, has been falling into the stereotype, that is, the dead lady forever. The death of Lin Yueru and Zhao linger in "Legend of swordsman 1" earned the tears of the fat house. Later, Tang Xuejian and longkui's two choices in Xianjian Qixia Zhuan 3 were classic enough《 The death of Han Lingsha in legend of swordsman 4 is also a pity. But after a female owner died, died more, can only let the player skin smile meat does not smile sneer: "good death!"

Of course, there is no lack of domestic some creative single game has achieved good results, but on the whole, it is not the same level as foreign 3A blockbusters, it is difficult to compete.

And what is Skynet doing now? They put all their resources into the development of Xia Ying 3, which can be said to be a gamble. Even now [Skynet] is running out of money, so it has to sell the film and TV series copyright of "Xia Ying 1" and "Xia Ying 2" for another wave of life. At ordinary times, it also receives orders from artists and music from some game companies to live on.

However, such a muddle along life has reached its limit. A large number of employees of sky.com have lost their jobs. Now those who can stay are really a group of core employees who depend on their feelings. It is said that Li Tao, CEO of sky.com, sold his Mercedes Benz last year in order to get the year-end bonus, which helped his younger brother have a good year.

In a word, it is difficult to satisfy the parent company Gemini group in terms of the performance of both [tianshi.com] and [Skynet]. These two companies have been defined as non-performing assets by Gemini group, and they are waiting for an appropriate time to be dismissed directly.

In fact, this spring, Skynet should be dismissed and declared bankrupt. However, due to the drastic changes of Gemini group, the position of the chairman of the board of directors is still in suspense, and the high-level struggle is fierce, so there is no time to take care of such non-performing assets. The situation of Gemini group was not stable until he Qian met Yang Xiaotian and took over the offer at the will of Yang Jun. however, he Qian also fell into the fierce struggle between Yang Xiaotian and Wu family. The operation of the company depended on he Qian's operation and its own system.

"I love playing games, and the game company suits me." Yang Xiaotian very confident said, "I will let this kind of non-performing assets of the game company, change, become comparable to blizzard, fist of the great game company."

Jing Rulong also didn't want to argue with Yang Xiaotian, saying: "since you have chosen the general direction, then I have limited power to choose the small direction. I think I can choose one of these two game companies first. What do you think? "

"Then you choose!" Yang Xiaotian light way, "anyway achievement is not how drop!"

"I choose Tianshi net." Jing Rulong said, "do you have any opinions?"

"No Yang Xiaotian said, "in that case, let me have the sky net."
