Chapter 218: Slow Heat, Monthly Pass)
With the launch of "My Time", countless players entered the game and played.
But soon, many posts appeared on the Internet to express their views on the game "Minecraft".
First of all, there is pixel art. Many players who have previously questioned the pixel style of "Minecraft" have completely changed their views after they really entered the game.
Because although it is a pixel, the material is not that kind of eye-catching. In addition, with the special effects of light and shadow, "Minecraft" is not first-class from the picture, but it is definitely above the passing line.
The only thing that players have discussed more is the building of houses in the game.
Many players are first exposed to this type of game.
Many players have not even played with building block toys.
Because building block toys are actually quite luxurious toys.
In the past, you thought that those who play Lego are all children, but later you realized that those who play Lego are all rich people.
Those with less building blocks start at a few hundred yuan, while those with more complex building blocks cost thousands of yuan.
It is precisely because of this that the "building blocks" gameplay of "Minecraft" also makes many people feel curious.
Of course, no matter how curious it is, the players who can really create good-looking houses in the game are basically rare at present.
For more players, they all build matchboxes and small black houses.
And some players in survival mode are even more direct.
At first they were excited to collect materials and build houses.
But wait for the house to be built and see.
I'll go, what's this thing! Did this ugly thing really make it myself?
It's so embarrassing to tear it down!
So for these players, they embarked on an alternative Minecraft survival journey.
What house should I build?
Find a larger mountain range, then dig a hole, a bed, a workbench, a storage box, and then insert a torch.
When I waited at night, sometimes I was afraid that monsters would come in, so I just used the materials on my body to seal the hole?
At this stage, players officially became people from the Peak Cave and entered the stage of primitive society.

After "Minecraft" was launched, many game designers have been paying attention to the movements of "Minecraft".
But the overall performance can only be said to be lukewarm.
Although the players of "Minecraft" have given a lot of praise, they don't seem to feel that it is so amazing.
Including the rating, the current rating of "Minecraft" is 9.0 points.
This also made many designers in the industry feel confused.
"There is not much stunning feeling in Chen Xu's "Minecraft"!"
"What else do you expect to be amazing for a pixel game?"
"I feel that's not right. It probably won't be a simple building block, right? Otherwise, Chen Xu would seem to be much higher than "Famine" in promotion, and he has already come according to the standards of the masterpiece!"
"That's true."
"Does Minecraft have more in-depth content?"
"Stop talking about it, what depth can a pixel building block game have?"
With the launch of "Minecraft"'s first trial, designers in the industry also felt strange.
Especially as the time for "Minecraft" to be pre-trial has passed a little bit by bit.
Although players have found more gameplay in the game, for example, there are villages, livestock and other creatures that can be tamed...
And there are also some powerful players who finally made it not matchboxes, but some beautiful duplex villas.
But overall players' evaluations of "Minecraft" are basically just good and excellent.
The popularity of the game is just lukewarm. With the topic of trial, it played a 50-50 match with Tenghua's "Voyage".
It even feels worse than the previous "Famine", which makes many designers in the industry puzzled.
Including Meng Zuo, who had talked about Chen Xu before and decided to postpone "Wasteland", was also in deep thought when he was watching the scene of "Minecraft" in the office.
Although it was first launched for five days, can there be any more money to spend in the game?
After all, although it is first launched to experience, players have actually experienced the content.
Moreover, in five days, for some games, even if they are 3a-level masterpieces, they can basically pass the level according to the thread plot.
But now this "Minecraft" is not very popular.
In addition, Meng Zuo felt that what Chen Xu said to him before didn't seem to be lies.
As a game designer and with so many excellent works, he doesn't believe that Chen Xu will misjudgment on the quality of the game.
So what are the characteristics of this game?
Compared with these designers who have no interest, Zhu Yi, the main designer of "Navigation" in Tenghua, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the popularity of "Minecraft" online.
Recently, for some reason, he had an ominous premonition.
After all, the sandbox game was started by Chen Xu.
But judging from the current situation, "Minecraft" should only be considered a pretty good work.
And he also tried it, and it felt very strange. If you want to say it wasn't fun, it was okay to play, but if you want to say it was fun, you can't say where it was fun.
There are no explosive points or attraction at all. Zhu Yi feels that it should not be enough to threaten the achievements of "Voyage".
Thinking of this, Zhu Yi couldn't help but laugh.
Especially this time, "Wasteland" on NetDragon retreated without a fight. Although it is said to the outside world that the game needs to be polished before it is postponed, everyone is in the game industry. Isn't it clear?
"Minecraft" is lukewarm, "Wasteland" temporarily retreated, and Zhu Yi had a premonition that sales were about to explode.
………………………………………
Chen Xu did not have much influence on various remarks, and he was still calmly building the building.
However, the others in the Nebula Game were affected somehow.
"Mr. Chen, the current sales seem to be a little unoptimistic!" Qin Yi said.
"Yes, the current pre-order sales are only 810,000." Ruan Ningxue also said nervously.
Although it was a pre-order trial, it has been five days, and it has been estimated to be widely promoted before.
The pre-order sales of 810,000 cannot be said to be very outstanding.
"Don't panic, you are in control, and have you also felt the charm of "Minecraft"? There will be a wave of big publicity in the future." Chen Xu came to the front, looked at the relevant data in the background and smiled.
Judging from the current data, although "Minecraft" is lukewarm in terms of popularity, the background data will not lie.
The player's time in the game has not only not decreased, but has also increased. It can be seen that the popularity of this game is increasing little by little.
And this is normal, because "Minecraft" is a relatively slow-heating game.
Unlike other games, you won’t feel so amazing when you first meet.
But the more you play and see, the more you feel, the more you feel and the more you feel.
And in terms of publicity, this is just beginning!
You should know that when the sandbox game was first launched, players were still in the exploratory stage, and the fun of the game was not discovered at all.
Even now, players have not felt the true charm of "Minecraft".
And this part was only released in the second stage of publicity.
Chapter completed!
