Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

…

After the release of "Bullfighting" this time, although it was deliberately left blank, many players were upset.

However, if you look back and think about it carefully, this ending is not bad.

With the release of the game, public opinion continued to ferment. In the end, players gave Gu Yuan Chunqiu unanimous praise.

Of course, just send the blades as well.

The main market for the game "Bullfighting" is Neon, followed by Bangzi and China.

Originally, there was no plan to release this game in China, but considering the influence of Dandelion Game Platform, Qing Zhiyuan finally decided to give it a try.

If you want to be the future of Steam, you must cultivate users.

Although the market in this area is still blank, if you just want to enjoy it and don't plant trees, the entire payment cycle will have to wait for another ten or twenty years.

Qing Zhiyuan said he couldn't wait that long.

Therefore, "Bullfighting" can be regarded as the first official Chinese version of galgame developed by Neon that Chinese players have played.

The game was released in China and immediately attracted a large number of fans.

The quality of the Chinese translation is very high. At first, many Chinese players were a little nervous and shy when they saw the label galgame.

Because in their impression, many pirated galgames flowing into China have some minor plots.

Who would have thought that after actually buying Pokeni's "Bullfighting", many people would be a little disappointed.

I finally spent some money to buy a genuine one, and you’re just going to show me this?

Even after searching between the lines for a long time, they couldn't find any words that made them excited, let alone seeing relevant pictures in the game.

According to this part of the players:

[Pokeni's painting style is really amazing. The girls are very well drawn. The picture quality and character design are definitely the best among all the galgames I have seen.

The only drawback is that there are no benefits! 】

However, after Chinese players experienced the entire plot of "Bullfighting" for two weeks, they all gave thumbs up to Gu Yuan Chunqiu.

They finally felt the different strength from pokeni.

Without the benefits, we can use other methods to impress people through the plot.

Many people fell in love with pokeni, a gaming company, after playing galgame for the first time.

Before this, many Chinese players' impressions of P Club were based on fun multiplayer online games and some good action games.

Therefore, a good work can show its charm little by little.

"Oh my god, you don't know, I cried so much playing the game "Bullfighting".

When I was whining in the room, my mother thought I was doing something strange.

It turned out to be playing a game.

She also laughed at me and said, "Can I cry while playing a game?" "

"This is also the first time I have come into contact with the game category galgame. My college classmate recommended it to me.

When I first mentioned galgame, I was confused.

What is galgame? I have never heard of it.

I used to only know about RTS, SLG, side-scrolling... these, this time really touched my blind spot of knowledge.

However, in practice...

Oh my god, this is amazing.

I didn't know the game could still be played like this.

There is no battle, and there are not many places that require you to operate. The only things you need to do are to raise cattle and fall in love with girls, choose different dialogue contents, and search for clues...

But it is such a seemingly ordinary game, but after you invest in it, it completely occupies your heart.

The plot and characters of pokeni really moved me.

I'm very happy that the first galgame is pokeni's. "

"Yes, yes, me too, it's amazing. This kind of game relies entirely on characters and plot to advance.

Any slight crotch pull will make the whole game lose its fun.

But pokeni's "Bullfighting" has such a magical power that people can't stop playing it.

I always want to see what happens next. "

“The female characters are all very attractive to me, and they give me a heart-pounding feeling.

It’s strange to say that even though it’s about Neon High School, it resonates with me. "

"So, human emotions are all common.

Who doesn't like pretty girls?

Who didn’t have a crush in high school?

It's just that what we couldn't get in reality was created by pokeni in the game, which gave us enough satisfaction and emotion.

Everyone has experienced such green years, but it can arouse people's resonance. "

"You guys, it's your first time to play galgame, which is a game under pokeni, so you can have some fun.

It can be said to be quite lucky.

Because you may think that pokeni, a company that makes gun battles and shooting, or action 3D masterpieces, is pretty good.

But you've got this completely wrong.

The most amazing thing about P Club is actually their galgame.

So far, all galgames produced by pokeni are excellent.

And there are several masterpieces that directly changed the history of Neon games.

It elevated galgame to a level it didn't belong to, and once forced a magazine like Famitsu, which specializes in game reviews, to add rules for annual awards.

You can imagine how powerful pokeni is. "

"Huh? Is it true? Pokeni is actually best at galgame?!"

"To be honest, I only knew about the galgame category because "Bullfighting" was released on the Dandelion Game Platform. I didn't expect that Pokeni, the game master in my mind, is actually the best at galgame?!"

"How can I describe this feeling? It's that this person has clearly dominated the martial arts world with his Yang Finger, but in the end he took out a Six Meridian Divine Sword.

I finally got the idea that pokeni has a way of making this kind of beautiful girl strategy game. "

“I always thought galgame was just a shitty game, but this time I played pokeni’s game, it really surpassed my imagination.

And do you think that the Chinese translation of the game "Bullfighting" is also quite impressive? "

Qing Zhiyuan said, "I am the one who controls the Chinese language. If it's not awesome, I'll be damned."

“Also, I want to popularize some hot knowledge to you.

This time "Bullfighting" is directed by Tsubaki Furuhara.

In fact, he is a great figure in pokeni. If you know the history of P Club, you will know——

The reason why pokeni is what it is today is entirely because Gu Yuan Chunqiu single-handedly led it.

And you can even say——

Pokeni can sometimes miss, but Furuhara Chunqiu definitely does not.

He is the only true god in the neon game industry, especially in the galgame field. "

"Holy shit, is it true? Is this person so awesome? I've never heard of him before?"

This is the first time for many Chinese players to hear the name Gu Yuan Chunqiu.

In their impression, Shinji Mikami seemed to be more famous.

I have never heard of it, and I don’t have much impression or understanding of it. The reasons may seem complicated and unbelievable in summary, but if you analyze it carefully, it is quite simple.

First of all, galgame is originally a niche category, and China has very strict control over this area.

Most of Neon's stand-alone games are basically impossible to enter unless they are pirated.

When most pirates choose galgame, they basically only choose works that are more popular. On the contrary, there are relatively few pirated games like pokeni that have no boundaries.

But anyone who has played it will definitely give Chunqiu Furuhara a thumbs up.

The number of P club galgames flowing in is originally small, so the spread is naturally not very high. That is to say, more people in the Baodao area of ​​China know about the old thief Gu Yuan.

On the other hand, Gu Yuan Chunqiu is quite low-key.

In more than ten years of working in the industry, I have never made a public appearance.

Even at the pokeni annual meeting every year, no one has seen Furuhara Chunqiu, such a great figure with zero presence.

Only when the game is released, you can see the name Furuhara Chunqiu.

So much so that there are rumors that Furuhara Chunqiu and Qing Zhiyuan are not getting along, so they refuse all activities in the company except work.

"Perhaps I also have a low-key and reserved personality.

It's normal that you don't know. Those who know the old thief Gu Yuan are basically senior galgame players, and they have to speak Japanese.

But, that’s okay, because you all don’t know, then the old thief from Gu Yuan is my collector’s game master. "

"Sorry, we already know Gu Yuan Chunqiu from today."

"I have decided to redo the games that Gu Yuan Chunqiu made before."

"How can you make up for it if you don't understand Japanese? The pirates here in China don't even make their own pirated copies."

"Ah... this is forcing me to learn Japanese."

"Or wait a little longer until pokeni re-Chineseizes the old galgame."

…

Less than a week after "Bullfighting" was released, the total global sales exceeded 1 million copies.

More than 600,000 of them are from die-hard Neon fans.

The remaining part is played by players from Bangzi Country and players from China at 55.

Even more sales were purchased by Chinese players, reaching an astonishing 180,000 copies.

Moreover, it has just been released, and many players, especially those in China, have not yet realized how powerful it is, and its reputation has not yet exploded, causing it to spread virally.

But judging from the growth rate, it is already quite remarkable. While game sales in other regions are still slowly climbing, game sales in China are rising at a steep pace.

Many people were surprised.

If this trend continues, the sales volume of "Bullfighting" may reach a new peak, breaking 5 million or something.

In the field of galgame, pokeni is also unique.

After this wave is over,

Gu Yuan Chunqiu once again stood on the altar.

Needless to say, Neon's old fans have no doubts about Gu Yuan Chunqiu's abilities.

The Chinese players were shocked for a moment, but they did not fully realize where Gu Yuan Chunqiu's god was.

Bullfighting has created a new wave of sales, and Neon game developers are accustomed to this.

galgame, as many netizens commented, Chunqiu Furuhara never fails.

Just one million sales, no big deal.

Everyone was shocked to the point of numbness.

However, there is one thing that is more likely to attract the attention of friends and competitors, and that is——

The sales volume of "Bullfighting" is quite high, and this time many Chinese players downloaded it through the Dandelion game platform, which set a sales record.

However, given that the selling price of the game in China is only 69 yuan, although the base is large, the overall profit is not high.

Colleagues are also relatively relieved.

You must know that the same game is sold in Omi region, and the price on pokeni is US$69.

The same number, but the exchange rate is different.

In 2001, 1 U.S. dollar could be exchanged for more than 8 soft coins.

This is a 7 times price difference all of a sudden.

“China, although many people want to enter this market because the population base is here.

With a population of 1.4 billion, even if we give it a fraction, there are hundreds or tens of millions.

But from a profit margin perspective, it’s too low, right? "

"Yes, if you sell the game to an American, it is equivalent to selling 8 copies in China. The gap is not a big one.

But the problem is that when I look at pokeni’s data, the number of players in China is not that exaggerated. "

"There are more Chinese people, but there are still too few real galgame players. In their minds, this should be a seductive game."

"Is it possible that Chinese people are too poor and don't want to spend money to buy games?"

"Oh my god, why do you still think like you did ten years ago?

It can be said that the Chinese people have made rapid progress in the past ten years, and their per capita income is no longer low.

It’s true that I don’t have a paying habit. "

"Hey, no matter what the situation is, I still hold a wait-and-see attitude. If pokeni really takes off this market, I will follow them."

…

Since pokeni introduced the world to China through two online games in the first half of this year, the word China has appeared more and more in conversations in the game industry.

It can be said that P Agency has single-handedly brought China into everyone's field of vision.

However, so far, apart from online games, no one seems to be able to see their value in the stand-alone game market.

According to sample surveys conducted by relevant people, Chinese players rarely have the willingness to pay for games.

For example, this time for "Bullfighting", many people were put off when they saw the 69 yuan price.

It's not that they don't have money, it's normal for them to spend one or two hundred per month on online games.

However, from the bottom of my heart, I have no desire to pay for a single game. I always feel that it is not worth it, especially for a game like galgame, which is just about looking at the text and pictures and moving your fingers.

Dozens of hours of experience cost 69 yuan, which I always feel is not a good deal.

After the investigation came out, many game manufacturers began to retreat.

It’s not as famous as pokeni, and its games aren’t as good as others’. Maybe it’s going to be a hit in the Chinese market.

…

And just when everyone is talking about [China Fever].

On the pokeni side, Qing Zhiyuan focused on another thing.

Just in August this year, a new work was published in Mutong Comics Magazine under P Agency. Once it was launched, it was immediately sought after by countless animation fans.

The name of this comic is——

"Big Sword"
