This game is awesome

This short one and a half minute video made Luo Wenxiu stunned.

He sat staring at the computer screen for more than ten minutes, and squeezed out two words:

"Brilliant."

Kids nowadays are really good at making fun of themselves!

If he had this ability, his fan base would have exceeded one million long ago.

Although he is envious, Luo Wenxiu is not willing to bow down for such a small number of fans. The direction of this video is very bad - it encourages young people to give up their studies to pursue their so-called "dreams."

It’s not that you can’t pursue your dreams, but most young people simply don’t have the ability or capital to do so.

If you have a family background, are extremely talented, or simply have the bonus of being a time traveler like Gu Qingshi, then of course you can do it. But for most people, it is more likely to waste the precious opportunity to enter university to accumulate experience and connections.

However, this is also excellent material!

Luo Wenxiu picked up the keyboard and began to make dynamic and sharp comments.

But after he typed a line, he felt it was inappropriate and deleted it.

After repeating this dozens of times, it was really difficult to evaluate Luo Wenxiu.

Or, what's the point of giving a review? Can it persuade that high school girl to come back, other than increasing your traffic?

Luo Wenxiu hesitated to speak, and finally left a line of words in the post.

“Some things require you to fall down before you know how difficult they are.”

............

After posting the update, Luo Wenxiu went back to the homepage and was almost speechless when he saw the overwhelming comments from his peers.

"Let's talk about dropping out of school at 18 to make games"

"Sharp Review Star Studio, is this the only game you have?"

"How do you view "Industry 1800" by Star Studio? Review: A piece of gold foil defense"

"About the fact that I wanted to drop out of school to make games, but I accidentally got into a 985 university"

Everyone emphasizes speed, accuracy and ruthlessness.

Hot news requires timeliness, and so do sharp comments.

Luo Wenxiu clicked on a few videos and watched them, but found them boring.

Whether they are in support or against, everyone is just venting their emotions and following the trend mindlessly. Occasionally, there are one or two videos that carefully analyze the pros and cons of dropping out of school to make games, and the comment section is also led astray by netizens.

I can only say that the producer of this video is really amazing and has deeply grasped the core emotions of the Internet hot spots.

This child will definitely achieve great things if he studies communication.

It's just a pity that I was so stubborn when it came to the game.

Luo Wenxiu thought about it and turned on the live broadcast equipment, writing "A brief talk about game development" on the title.

The platform quickly sent the live broadcast message to fans, and the number of people in the live broadcast room increased rapidly.

In half an hour, the number of viewers exceeded 1000.

Discussions on the barrage are becoming more and more frequent.

"Old Luo, why don't you tell us about the Starry Studio?"

“I suggest Lao Luo publish a collection of shit works. I love watching this kind of stuff.”

Luo Wenxiu was randomly searching for games on the gaming platform, and when he saw that everyone in the comments was discussing Fanxing Studio, he simply opened the game page for "Industry: 1800".

"Although I don't encourage people to drop out of school to make games, I must say that the programming, copywriting, and art design of Fanxing Studio are quite good. But they met a rubbish planner, so their abilities are not put to good use."

"Of course, this game is really bad, and the subject matter is too bad."

As soon as Luo Wenxiu finished speaking, he saw that the "Developer Says" column on the page was updated.

"Lao Luo, hurry in and take a look!"

“Fuck, they’re actually updating hahaha!”

"I haven't given up yet."

"It would be strange if they gave up. They have finally gained some traffic, so they will definitely cut some leeks before running away!"

"666 has a point."

Luo Wenxiu was also very curious about what was updated in the game, so he clicked on it immediately.

Then, he froze.

It's not that there is anything extremely eye-catching in this update, but,

There are too many words.

After unfolding the folded message, Luo Wenxiu scrolled the mouse wheel for a full minute but still didn't reach the bottom.

“This was written by AI, right?”

Luo Wenxiu quickly scrolled over and took a closer look at what was said.

“In order to provide a better gaming experience, the Victoria (formerly Industrial: 1800) development team is working overtime to update to version 1.1. The specific update content is as follows:

1. Major changes to the game content: Unreasonable wars of aggression have been cancelled, the game scenario has been shortened to the period between 1836 and 1917, new political reforms and government agencies have been added, a new POP economic system has been added, and a world market has been added...

2. Improved novice guidance: reset the novice tutorial and various national tasks, added a task tree mechanism, and customized game difficulty.

3. New scientific research and economic system: Add scientific research projects and build a POP economic system. Players will be able to intuitively experience the macro national and world markets...

........

86. Players who have purchased version 1.0 will be automatically upgraded to the Deluxe Edition on the day the new version is released, and will receive random physical gifts from the studio. Players who have not purchased version 1.0 will enjoy a 8% discount.

87. The promotional video "Victoria" has been released. "

Chapter 9 [Promotional Video]

Game planner, a profession that is often scolded by players and has a very high reputation, is also the top person in a game studio.

A good game planner can bring a bad game back to life and even win the reputation of players. The most classic example is "No Man's Sky", which took five years to polish and went from "mostly negative reviews" to "overwhelmingly positive reviews".

But such wise planning and production teams are rare among the rare ones, and there are more Sima planners who are criticized by players.

Luo Wenxiu had seen many Sima plans and Yingming plans, but none of them could be compared with the planning of "Victoria".

He could only sum up the planning of Victoria or Industry: 1800 in one word:

Outrageous.

Luo Wenxiu was almost dumbfounded after reading the update announcement. So much content had been updated, it was like changing a whole game.

No manufacturer has ever made such a big move before, and all the game content has been changed in the 1.1 version update.

This behavior is either a bold move to take advantage of the situation, or a complete amateur seeking his own death - Luo Wenxiu feels that the latter is more reliable.

Not only Luo Wenxiu, but also the audience on the barrage were shocked.

“So brave.”

"666, I have to give Fanxing Studio a 6 for this wave"

“Can so much content really be completed? Just paint a rosy picture for the players…”

"What the hell is this update? There's nothing good to look at. Can there be more female characters with long white legs?"

"It's so funny. A strategy game is looking for a female character. You must be horny, right?"

"The pie is very big, but I'm afraid it's just a lie."

Luo Wenxiu didn't believe that such a big pie could be won.

How long must it take to come up with so much content in the early stages? It’s only been two months since this cool game was released, and they came up with it so quickly?

"Lao Luo, isn't there a promotional video? Let's go check it out."

Luo Wenxiu saw the comments and clicked on the video link. "From the current perspective, I am pessimistic about these contents."

"But let's be honest, this marketing method is really powerful. Brothers in the live broadcast room, do the math and see how much more exposure Fanxing Studio can get by doing this."

"Let's take a look at their so-called promotional video first."

Luo Wenxiu said as he clicked on the video.

The promotional video was not long, only 49 seconds, and Luo Wenxiu was surprised when he saw it.

Nowadays, the longer the promotional video, the better. Manufacturers are eager to cram all the exciting scenes that can be played in the game into the promotional video, just like the little sister in Yihongyuan shouting loudly "Uncle, come and play".

Fanxing Studio took a different approach.

The video began to play, accompanied by a crisp camera shutter sound, and the studio's Chinese and English logos appeared on the black background.

"Stars"

"Stellaris"

The picture fades out, and then turns from dark to bright. The slowly emerging steam engine wheels raise a cloud of dust, and majestic music begins to play.

“Never before have people’s lives changed so dramatically in such a short period of time…”

"During this time, the steam engine first entered the stage of history with its roaring sound."

...........

Seeing this, Luo Wenxiu felt goose bumps all over his body. He watched the steam engine fade out of the screen, and then the steamer anchored in the port, the streets filled with dust, flames and oil smoke, people holding red flags and charging, and the pioneers of equal rights accusing the police of arresting them.

Later, these conflicting paintings were replaced by airships flying through the sky, and capitalists reached cooperation among the crowds of people.

The two pictures are full of tension, one after the other, making the audience hold their breath.

It ends with a painting of the Crystal Palace World Expo.
