Number One Game Designer

Chapter 303 Players' Expectations

For the sake of the income of the two platforms of PC and old consoles, IGN and GAME World have published news about the changes of the game platform in their own media during this period.

At the same time, it also conveys a message to the players: whichever game platform you like, support this platform! In this way, your voice can be fed back to the developers, and they can make your favorite games based on your favorite platforms.

Although it is impossible to know the sales volume of this game in a short period of time, based on the complete market data of other games, the two media can make their own models and make a prediction for future market changes. The details may not be accurate, but the general direction will not be wrong.

At present, the main comparison is the size of the two platforms last year: Hongyi’s revenue last year should be close to 10 billion US dollars according to media estimates, and the net profit is not clear, which is confidential.

Lao Ren's revenue last year was on the bright side, 16.8 billion US dollars. Net profit is also less clear.

Moreover, in the PC field, the Hongyi family now has more than 70% of the market, and the old Ren has experienced the defeat of WIIU, and the market share in the console market can be said to be extremely low.

So if you just look at this, you will feel: Compared with the PC market, the current console market is really in the dust.

But there is a difference that most of the old Ren's income comes from handhelds. If it is purely for home consoles and PCs, the old Ren's income is not so good.

The same is true for Hongyi. The biggest shortcoming of Fang Xi's company is that it is not listed: this way the funds can be opaque. Use your nose obediently, because you don't have any more real information in your hands.

Some of them are easy to talk about, and some are more nonsense. For example, in part of the financial report released by Hongyi, there is something called game script income. This thing shows one of Hongyi’s main expenses. The remarks explain this script It was provided by Hongyi's boss, Fang Xi. Because of these scripts, Hongyi Company needs to pay Fang Xi more than 20 million in labor income.

Let the outside world see that the money is almost taken from Fang Xi's left pocket to the right pocket, which is really farting when he takes off his pants, but because of these items, Hongyi's profit margin has dropped a lot, so at least it seems that Hongyi's profit is not that much. too much.

In short, initially it seems that the mainframe market is still exploding the PC market, but if you analyze it carefully, the PC market has entered a stage of vigorous development under the leadership of Hongyi. growth, because Hongyi’s three main games last year: Road to Survival, Portal, and Eternity, two of which are low-priced games, and Eternity is a standard free online game, none of which can make players’ wallets bleed, and last year Hongyi's Honghu platform has just started.

This year's Hongyi has 3A games, and there are more games on the Honghu platform. In short, this year's PC revenue may exceed many people's imagination.

Midsummer's tail hadn't passed yet, but Joe's fair cheeks had already been tanned with a tan.

Taking advantage of the bookshelf, considering that there are still a lot of things to buy in the fall, Joe and his friends went to the gas station to work for the summer vacation.

The two of them do chores at the gas station, collecting gas for people and taking part in convenience store cashiers. The two of them wash cars next to the gas station. The owner of the gas station is also business-minded and knows how to provide one-stop services.

In short, after a month of hard work, the four got their share of the money. Politely bid farewell to the gas station owner, agreed to come back next year to work as a summer worker, and then turned around:

"I will definitely not come again next year! I want to be an anchor and broadcast FANG games!" Qiao said angrily: "I have never seen such a picky boss. We agreed at the beginning that we would take care of our breakfast.

In the end, I gave us a piece of cheese in the morning to let ourselves figure out a way, F@ck! "

Others comforted that this summer job was the first social practice for the four and a half children. Although it was not good, at least they made money.

Back at the secret base of the four people, they sat on the ground and calculated their income and what they would spend this time:

"FANG's game is definitely a must-buy, it's 50 Euros."

"I want to buy myself a new pair of shoes when school starts, and I'll take out 25 euros."

"Ren's new host looks very interesting. I asked Qiao Fu at the end of the street, and he told me that the cheapest machine costs 280 Euros."

"When you buy a machine, you have to bring games. I also want to play the latest Zelda, and it will add 55 euros."

"I can buy another pair of shoes and a suit of clothes with the rest of the money."

It is not difficult for them to settle accounts with this little money, and Joe quickly distributed all the money contentedly, feeling sincerely happy:

"Then we're going to spend now?"

Several people looked at each other:

"Then what are we waiting for?"

...

The autumn tiger in August is a bit fierce.

Sun Daxing, who came back from the construction site, wiped off his sweat, and turned the air conditioner to 23 degrees with strong wind, which was refreshing!

After taking a shower and sweating comfortably, and lying on the mahogany sofa in front of the computer, Sun Daxing felt that his day had just begun.

As a standard successful old man born in the 1980s, Sun Daxing feels that there are not many ripples in his life.

The only trouble is that my wife separated from me with my daughter, which is fine, but sometimes I miss my daughter.

I fell into the pit of Hongyi Games last year, which was very cool, and I regret that I didn't have such fun games when I was young.

From raising Kun at the very beginning, to Hongyi web's last work "Legendary World" is Sun Daxing's favorite. eternal? I also play, but the reaction ability is incomparable to that of young people now. The record in two games is really ugly. The teammates can't be scolded again and again, and they can't spend money to become stronger, so in this game, Boss Sun basically just watches the game: I can't play it, but I think I am the strongest king!

Recently, although Hongyi's reputation has been getting better and better, Boss Sun's senses are getting worse and worse: Boss Sun thinks that Hongyi's recent games are becoming less and less friendly to middle-aged and elderly people like him. In the fashionable words, it means "forgetting the original intention".

He has several accounts in Raising Kun and Legendary World, and he has killed many enemies by throwing money at him. It’s been a long time since he felt that kind of excitement. He has been waiting for Hongyi to release a new Krypton Gold game. After so long, it is actually a stand-alone machine?

Looking at the continuous advertisements and the promotional CG that looks almost like a movie, Boss Sun felt a little loose:

Otherwise, just try it? Just this time?

Anyway, this game is only a meal, so it’s not a loss if you don’t enjoy it.

I don't know how Fang Xi will feel when he hears Boss Sun's evaluation of "forgetting the original intention".
