Key points: Two domestic games are popular all over the world, but they are not very serious
This month, two domestic games that have sparked heated discussions around the world staged a "complete life" drama for us.
First, the new work "Showa American Story" debuted by Wuhan Lingkong Studio, telling the story of a Japanese colonization of the United States from the perspective of a purely Chinese.
In the short three-minute promotional video, Hollywood was hung with the sign "Neo Yokohama (New Yokohama)", the Statue of Liberty was put on a kimono, Kinmen Bridge was hung with Japanese lanterns, and even the elevated road was changed to Torii, which perfectly interprets what it means to "the sea is inclusive, inclusive, and cultural fire is inspiring"!
Players around the world were so happy to watch. They no longer care whether the game is fun or not. They just want to see what else can be done in the official version.
At the end of the month, the New Year greeting video of "Black Myth: Wukong" was also arranged. Unexpectedly, this time, the real-life demonstration was not taken seriously, but the slander and the bug flew together, from sex to Yang Qi and cat motion catch to the end of the game, which caused the game to fail to meet expectations, and eventually went bankrupt and closed down. After a video, people called him "good guy".
is a complete life. Behind the funny laughter, Dr. X feels that these two domestic small studios have some similar temperaments. After the first exposure of Lingkong Studio at the beginning of the month, there is no more dynamic. Game science is also accustomed to steadily explaining the game's development process to players with a low-key style and a low frequency of one zombie every six months.
Faced with the rising popularity, they did not take over the title of "domestic 3A/stand-alone hope", but instead made some moves to cool down the popularity and spent more time developing a game that truly met their expectations. This quality is admirable, and Dr. X will continue to pay attention to their dynamics.
Key points: Domestic small butter topped the hot-selling list in 2 hours Steam7% especially praise
The domestic small butter "Mirror 2: Project X" officially released on January 21st, reached the top of Steam's hot-selling list in two hours. This game is so magical that it is released in advance, and at the same time allows players to see how rich and generous the R&D Sakura Club is.
Not only is the main body of the game only priced at 11 yuan (the discount was only more than six yuan a while ago), you can get 10 free key gift packages for 140 minutes of playing (basically the previous work of Sakura Club), but also gave away 188.8 Swtichs for two consecutive draws (I also want to know how these 8.8 NSs came from), which really makes people wonder if he is doing charity?
and the quality of the game body is also very excellent, inheriting the refreshing feeling of the previous game three games and rich storylines. Although it is still in the state of early experience and the R&D progress is less than 5%, it has received particularly positive reviews of 2.2w 97%.
The game will add a storyline of 7 chapters and a tower climbing mode of meat pigeon + match-3 that can't stop playing. At that time, the play time can reach 50 to 100 hours. The content in these complete versions will be completed within 8 to 12 months after EA.
I would like to call him Little Butter God of War.
highlights: "Thirteenth" is about to explode the server. Chinese players have to wait for two months to play
I have to say that the public beta date chosen by "Undecember" in the Korean server is very clever. It is just that the Dark 3 season is nothing fun. Before the new Ladder of Dark 2 came, "Thirteenth" is a free dark game with mobile games synchronized, naturally attracted a lot of attention. When the game was officially launched on January 13, the server was squeezed out due to the influx of a large number of Chinese players, and the server was shut down for nearly a day. However, the Korean server is only open to Korean players. Basically, no one can log in as long as they are not Korean IPs. Players who really want to experience it have to wait for the Steam version.
highlights: Miracle IP is blooming, is the legendary new work created with Unreal 5? !
Miracle and legendary IP, which has been in the past twenty years, has ushered in a lot of fresh blood injection this month.
Netzen has announced the new MMORPG mobile game "Miracle: Origin 3". This is the first time that the series has been created using Unreal 4 engine, which has significantly improved the quality of the picture. At the same time, as the latest work in the "Origin of Miracle" series, the game has added a flight system for the first time, making wings more important. As the wings rise, the speed of flying will become faster and the character's appearance will become more gorgeous.
The core gameplay of the game is "Abyss Battlefield", which allows you to experience the fun of large-scale competition. In the abyss where players across the server gather, there are territory and separate disputes in each server. Players can cooperate with players on this server here and then compete fiercely with players on other servers.
At the same time, Netzen announced that its PC MMORPG "S.U.N. Classic" (temporary translation, Miracle World: Classic) global version will be officially launched in March this year, and will provide Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean and other languages. The global version will also add more gameplays such as "character ownership warehouse" and "props collection" that players suggest, and improve the convenience by improving the game interface of the "AC system" representative system of "World of Miracle".
On the other hand, Entertainment and Degree is not to be outdone, and has announced the latest masterpiece of the legendary series "Legend of Ymir", which is also produced by the advanced Unreal 5 engine. It is a cross-platform multi-terminal online game for PC/mobile terminal.
shows the excellent screen performance under Unreal 5 in the DEMO video:
Like the previous "Legend" series, this time "Legend of Yumier" still focuses on siege gameplay. Since the game background is Nordic mythology, the style is very different from the previous legendary series. In addition, this game will also have NFT blockchain elements.

Key points: " Against the Water Cold " tests the waters to open up the world, players: Why don't I play legends?
, which has always liked to make trouble, did a big deal in the first month of the year, and opened up a new continent of 2,400 square kilometers in online games, and took advantage of the popularity of the open world.
All players have to start from 0 here to explore puzzles and upgrade equipment. They not only have to fight with people, but also with the sky (various harsh environments). It can be said that they have integrated many common survival and exploration gameplay in the open world. It is an exploration of the open world MMOs by NetEase.
So what will happen after it is actually launched? Dr. X went to investigate and found that the survival conditions of the players were really difficult. The forced PVP mode made players always be killed by others even if they didn't want to kill others. The mechanism of being killed and exploded equipment frequently made the player's mentality collapse, forcing the planner to change the peak period with a large crowd to a safe time.
and the equipment iteration speed is too fast. It changes every two days and brainlessly shoot monsters. In the later tasks, there are more and more monsters required, resulting in many players going up to level up every day and leaving. "It's better to go to legend if you really want to cut monsters?"
It can be seen that there are still relatively big problems in the gameplay of "mountain and sea". Whether you can survive a season's consumption is a problem.
Key points: 20 years ago, the domestic stand-alone light logged on to Steam, triggering a wave of players to replenish tickets
In recent years, many domestic old games that were once drowned in the wave of the times have re-entered the horizon of contemporary players by putting on Steam, and have also allowed players who had never purchased genuine versions because of piracy and other issues to successfully replenish tickets. " Qin Shang ", which was launched this month, also set off a small climax in the gaming circle in this way.
"Qin Shang" launched in 2002 was once the light of domestic stand-alone and the first domestic game to win praise on E3. GameSpot calls "Qin Shang" a "diablo in history" and even IGN, which is known as "game world leverage", is believed to have not given high scores without giving money, believes that the historical theme of the Qin Dynasty has injected fresh blood into ARPG.
Now, after 20 years, "Qin Shang" has re-released on the Steam platform, and many old players have come to make up for their feelings after hearing the news. The game is priced at 6 yuan, and it only costs 3.6 yuan at 60% off. Players are already satisfied with being able to re-launch. From the perspective of gameplay, its quality is still very good. The game from 20 years ago is still the same as it is.
Currently, "Qin Shang" has 72% positive reviews on Steam. The negative reviews are mainly focused on issues such as flashbacks and too small windows. At the same time, advertisements for the online game "Tianjiao" were added to it. The official is also more active and has given a solution faster.

Key points: After the acquisition of Microsoft banknote capabilities, Blizzard was finally saved?
htmlOn November 18, the news that Microsoft acquired Activision Blizzard in "cash" by US$68.7 billion is destined to be recorded in the history of the gaming circle.
Microsoft once again lets players see what "money ability" is. With a wave of his hand, the entire Activision Blizzard was already waiting to join the XGP lineup.
The most exciting ones are Blizzard fans, and the former Blizzards. In the past few years, Blizzard has been playing hard, these people are the saddest.
And just as players were waiting for when Blizzard would send some good news, they didn't expect the good news to come so quickly! Just the second week after the acquisition was exposed, the next-generation 3A-level survival IP that Blizzard had been hiding for three and a half years was exposed. It is said that it is an awesome team composed of Blizzard veterans and big bulls, which can be said to be very worth looking forward to!
At the same time, several classic Blizzard games have also been reported one after another, and more news about World of Warcraft and " Overwatch " will be announced in the next few weeks, followed by "Diablo".
Maybe Microsoft can really save Blizzard from the fire and reproduce the glory of "Blizzard production must be a fine product"? Then Dr. X also wanted to bow to him at the door of Microsoft.
Tip: LSP loses its defense line! Genshin Impact character modeling is harmonious
022 At the beginning of the new year, it should have been a festive day, but "Genshin Impact" poured cold water on the players without warning, and announced that it would adjust the appearance of Qin, Amber, Rosalia and Mona, mainly reducing the exposure of some characters. As soon as the news of
came out, the players were in an instant. After all, many people just drew cards for XP. The rhythms started by players have been wave after wave, but it cannot stop Mihayou from changing.
This harmony has been launched at present, and the leisure replacement clothes compensated by Mihayou have also been distributed. Although my wives' clothes are indeed wrapped tightly, I feel that the modified clothes are not completely unacceptable.
What players are really worried about now is whether boxers will attack more sexy characters like Gan Yu and Shen He in the future. This is something that players would rather give up the compensation of thousands of raw stones than see.
is a coincidence. After the outbreak of "Genshin Impact", the 9.2 version test server of "World of Warcraft" under Blizzard also broke into a lawsuit for "Black Life". Because of the equipment too white, some "Black Life" organizations believed that Blizzard painters deliberately borrowed the clothing styles of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist hatred group, forcing designers to modify the appearance styles overnight.
This operation cannot be said to be exactly the same as the "fabric door" of "Genshin Impact", it can only be said to be exactly the same.
points out the key points: " PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds " has increased significantly after free. After seeing it in 2042, considering imitating
"PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" is really saved by "free".
The number of people online at the peak is only 10% of the peak period. It finally switched to free games on the 12th of this month. This operation has actually activated this chicken-eating game with repeated declines in number of online users. A large number of new players have flocked to experience it. We can see obvious contrast fluctuations around the data around the 13th.
According to the news released by developer Krafton recently, after the game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was free, the number of new players increased by 486%, exceeding the player growth rate when it was first released in 2017. In addition, Krafton also said that after "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" is free, the growth rate of new players in Southeast Asia and South America has been higher, even reaching 537%. After the game is free, there are nearly 700,000 active players on the Steam platform.
At this time, a game that was despised by plug-ins after only two months of online launch and confiscated the homework. In the future, "Battlefield 2042" may be changed to a free system. But whether this precarious negative review can be saved is still unknown.
