Almighty Game Designer Chapter 368: S One Finals Prize Pool


The video of Chen Mo playing "Escape" on the late night live broadcast was soon posted online by the audience. Many viewers who dared not watch the live broadcast had the same feeling after watching the video: How did Chen Mo play "Escape" Doesn't seem scary at all?

This gives many players who have never played "Escape" an illusion, as if this game is really simple.

Therefore, many players feel relieved to try this game boldly, the ending...Of course, they are still scared to death...

However, Chen Mo’s live broadcast of "Escape" did further increase the sales of this game, making many players who didn’t know this horror game or didn’t dare to buy it also used their VR game pods. Hi plus one.

As for many people think that Chen Mo's live broadcast will spoil the fun of the game "Escape", but it won't at all.

Chen Mo’s live broadcast is on the third day after the game was launched. At this point in time, a large number of players have already cleared "Escape". After all, the real game duration of this game is less than 2 hours, even if the player has another meal. Stupid, the simple difficulty is basically 4 or 5 hours to pass.

Even if Chen Mo does not broadcast live, there will definitely be other players who like horror games to produce various live commentaries, clearance videos, and clearance strategies. Chen Mo's live broadcast and their second creation are completely independent of each other.

Moreover, even if Chen Mo has shown the players the correct posture for the crazy difficulty, other players will still be scared when they are playing.

If you don’t believe me, just download a version of "Escape" and play.

In just 3 days, the sales volume of "Escape" has exceeded 30,000 sets. As a very niche horror game, this sales volume has been very impressive.

The price of "Escape" is 688 yuan, which is in the middle of the VR game. The investment in "Escape" is not too much, and the development time is not long. After all, in Chen Mo's previous life, "Escape" is equivalent to a small-cost independent game, and the entire game production team is less than 20 people. And Chen Mo transplanted it to the VR platform is nothing more than adding some investment, there is no too high difficulty.

On the Thunder game platform, the rating of the game "Escape" is unexpectedly high, reaching a super high score of 9.4 points.

Players generally feel that this is a scary enough horror game. If you use one word to describe it, it is scary!

As for how scary? Different people have different opinions. For example, DV's night vision mode, gameplay without combat system, story background and plot, realistic VR game experience, etc., have all become important elements to highlight this sense of horror.

After experiencing this "escape" frenzy, not only VR gamers, but even PC and mobile platform players have also learned about this game through live broadcast and video.

The impact of "Escape" far exceeds the sales of this game.

……

In the experience store, Chen Mo is watching the S1 finals schedule and related materials sent by Yanhuang.

Previously, Chen Mo's live broadcast of "Escape" actually borrowed the fear mask, otherwise it would be impossible to be so calm. Although the game designer knows all the information about the level layout and mobs in the game, he is still scared when he really plays.

Like many players, even if they clear the simple difficulty once, they are psychologically prepared for the refreshing rules of various monsters and high-powered plots. They will still panic when they play the second week. This is an instinctive reaction.

Fortunately, the system has a prop fear masker, otherwise Chen Mo would really not dare to play Crazy Difficulty live, and it would be impossible to install it happily.

While watching, the phone rang.

Chen Mo saw that it was Qiao Hua who called, and quickly picked up: "Director Qiao?"

Qiao Hua’s voice came over the phone: "Chen Mo, I heard that "Escape" is selling well. Congratulations."

Chen Mo hurriedly said: "Thanks to Minister Qiao and Chairman Zhang for reviewing "Escape", players can play this game."

Qiao Hua smiled: "By the way, I called you this time just to tell you specifically. At present, the players' evaluation of "Escape" is very high and the response is good, so you don't have to worry about it. "Escape" will definitely not be removed."

"Furthermore, the opinions of the game committee on "Escape" are basically unified. This can be regarded as a successful attempt of a domestic game in the VR field. In the future, the review of similar themes will be more relaxed. This is also considered a Good news."

Chen Mo said: "Yes, it is indeed good news."

"But." Qiao Hua said, "This kind of game still has certain risks. You should continue to pay attention to this. To sum up the experience, follow-up development of similar games, it is best to follow this time. I say hello."

Chen Mo nodded: "Don't worry, for sure."

Hang up the phone, Chen Mo was also relieved.

Actually, horror games are far less terrible. Many people are overly worried about horror games, and the main reason is that they are at fault. At least from the news, I have heard of many people who died suddenly from playing games, but rarely heard of people who were scared to death when playing horror games.

As long as you are a normal adult, don’t have heart disease, high blood pressure, etc., you’re healthy, and you’re exposed to some horror elements, it’s not going to be great. At most, you just quit the game and stop playing.

Everyone has an estimate of their own guts, not to mention that Chen Mo has made a lot of preventive measures for the VR version of "Escape", and it is impossible to go wrong.

With the review experience of "Escape", it will be even more interesting for Chen Mo to play various games in the future. After all, the entire game industry in the parallel world is completely different from the previous life, and some rules need to be explored slowly.

However, Chen Mo has no time to pay attention to the follow-up feedback of "Escape", because the "League of Legends" S1 World Finals is about to open.

……

As the game date approaches, a lot of information about the finals is constantly exposed, including the venue, schedule, team information and so on.

The most exciting thing for players is the prize pool of this game.

Chen Mo announced as the official "League of Legends" ~ IndoMTL.com~ The total prize pool of this S1 World Finals is based on 40 million soft sister coins. The champion team will win 20 million and the runner-up team will receive 10 million. The top four, eight and sixteen teams all have bonuses.

In other words, even if a foreign team is eliminated in the S1 round or the group stage, they will receive 200,000 rewards.

If converted into US dollars, the total prize pool this time is nearly 7 million US dollars!

Of course, because S1 is an invitational system, this division of the prize pool may seem a bit strange. Many people may wonder why a team that did not qualify for the group stage can get 200,000 prizes in a single win?

This is mainly for future considerations. After "League of Legends" goes global, every World Finals quota will have to be selected across layers. Compared with the efforts of these professional teams for the S game quota In other words, the 200,000 bonus is nothing at all. Quan should be a consolation prize.

Not only that, Chen Mo also announced that the skin of Champion's Blade-Riven will be on sale during the finals. If you purchase this skin, you will receive a commemorative avatar and avatar frame for the S1 World Finals. 50% will be included in the prize pool of this World Finals. 8)
