For the next month, boss Jia has been accompanying his wife and children, even E3 in the United States.
However, there is no need to go this time, because Daqian has no new tricks in E3 this year, just releasing some new games.
One of the more important games is probably the trailer of Red Alert 2 and Warcraft 2, which has set off a huge wave in the whole game circle.
What boss Jia didn't expect was that when the "Legend of fairy sword and chivalry 2" was announced, the whole scene actually reveled. Although the voice was lower than the previous two games, it was the third highest game in the audience.
This makes the whole production team of "Legend of fairy sword and chivalry 2" very excited. They always think their game is a free game that no one likes.
In fact, the whole Daqian game is full of controversy about whether to make the legend of Xianjian Qixia 2, because looking at all aspects of data, the data of the legend of Xianjian Qixia is not good.
Although the total sales volume is up to more than 50 million copies, everyone knows that this is the legend of Xianjian Qixia. It is a game that can be bought and given away. The sales volume it sells has nothing to do with the quality of the game itself.
Therefore, many people think that the legend of Xianjian Qixia is a very bad game and is not worth making a sequel. It was not until boss Jia made the decision himself that the game had the possibility of a sequel.
So when the production team of swordsman 2 saw the cheering of the whole audience, the production team was very moved on the line. It seems that they don't have no fans.
In fact, even if a game is no matter how bad, even if it is free, as long as more than 50 million copies are sent out all over the world, it will have huge fans.
After all, Qianji change is the first game for many children who have never played a game console, and the legend of Xianjian Qixia will become the first game they play. This feeling is incomparable in any case.
In fact, the entire production team did not conduct a detailed investigation. If they went to BBS around the world to investigate, they would find that the number of forum users of the legend of swordsman is actually the fourth largest game forum in the world after Pokemon and Diablo, and Super Mario.
Around the world, the legend of Xianjian Qixia has a large number of fans.
In addition, Daqian game has also announced the production plans of more than 30 games. Of course, many of them are just cannon fodder, but as long as one of them can rise, it can bring huge profits.
In addition, the most important news on the scene is the performance of the steam game store.
At E3, Zhong Yu, President of Daqian game, announced excitedly that after nearly a year of development, the steam game store has 2321 offline physical stores all over the world, and 892 games have landed in the steam game store.
In this year, the steam store sold 723 million games, bringing happiness to 98.75 million players all over the world!
Then, the steam store announced two ranking lists of games in the whole year, the first sales ranking list and the other player evaluation ranking list!
After buying the game, players in the steam store can fill in their own evaluation of the game and send it back to the steam store, so this game evaluation ranking list appears.
Needless to say, the game sales ranking is a simple sales ranking, and then the first is Pokemon gold and silver. From last July to this July, 46.82 million copies were sold, and there is no doubt about their strength.
Then StarCraft.
Then there's the go kart
Anyway, in the top 10 list, Daqian games are self-produced, and the games occupy seven positions. The other two belong to EA's genesis and Capcom's street overlord, and finally the imperial era of Microsoft.
Yes, Microsoft, which seems not to be involved in the game industry at present, also launched the Empire era, a game of great significance in the history of games.
So when Microsoft announced the release of games in the steam store, many industry leaders exclaimed that the wolf came again.
Eh, why say again?
As for why Microsoft chose to release its own games in the steam store, it is normal, because the steam game store has now become the largest game chain store in the world, and Microsoft does not have its own game distribution platform, so the steam game distribution is the best choice.
This is a very normal business choice without any problems.
In fact, after the release of the steam game sales ranking list, it did not cause much surprise, because the ranking list can be calculated according to various data already released. The whole audience has already known the order of the ranking list. What other surprises can be said?
However, when the game scoring list appeared, a shocking scene appeared, because the game that finally won the first place in the list was Zelda · flute of time.
Yes, the number one game in this ranking is not Daqian's game, nor even any game subordinate to the steam game platform, but Zelda · flute of time, which was not sold on the steam game platform at all. It comes from Nintendo's N64 game platform and was released on December 31, 1996.
Historically, this game was released in 1998, but because the current game market is much worse than that in another world, when Nintendo invested power, Zelda flute of time, the largest masterpiece on the N64, was released on the N64 platform more than a year in advance.
But no one expected that the game would eventually dominate the ranking list.
Ask yourself, "Zelda flute of time" is really the best game in 96?
This is certain for most game media people and even players, because Zelda flute of time is so excellent. Even among the top 100 historical Global Games selected in 2018, Zelda flute of time can rank second. There is no doubt about the quality of the game.
Just, how can Daqian really give the first place in the list to Nintendo games?
In fact, even if you don't give it, it won't have any impact, and it won't greatly affect the fairness of the whole ranking list.
Because of the ranking list selected by Daqian, all players default to the game sold in the steam game store. "Zelda · flute of time" has not landed in the store at all. In fact, he has long been excluded from the candidate list by all relevant people. Without him, it is the most normal.
