Chapter 968 Buy, buy, buy!
968
Du De, who ran home wildly, had nothing to do. He turned on the computer and entered the Battle.net platform. At this time, the Battle.net platform in the United States was calm.
He immediately went to the Facebook social platform.
Now this discount is being talked about everywhere here.
Many old facebook users who seldom came out before also jumped out.
The rise of Facebook and the popularity of video games were carried out almost simultaneously, and the two sides had a very high degree of overlap in users at that time.
Players who like video games will be more willing to share their playing experience on the Internet, hoping to find more friends who like video games.
In reality, it was difficult for them to find such a partner in reality.
So today, video game players account for a considerable proportion of Facebook users, and they are also the most visited group of Facebook users.
At about four or five o’clock in the morning, the hot searches on Facebook’s related social platforms are still some celebrity scandals, or what accidents happened in a certain area, and the American people protested in a certain area.
But after an hour, a trending search rose rapidly.
Summer Sale.
This is a very peculiar vocabulary.
At the beginning, many people didn't know what the sale was.
They thought there was a unique live sale event in some area.
But when I clicked in and took a look, I found out that it was a special sale about video games.
Some people are naturally lack of interest.
But video gamers are boiling.
The night owl players on the US side almost immediately entered the Battle.net platform or the game store page of the home game console to check like Dude.
But everything is calm.
No, it's not all smooth sailing, there's a countdown on the official store page.
The countdown is counting when the sale will arrive.
These people saw that they still had to wait, so they expressed their dissatisfaction on Facebook and the official forum of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Why did Japan open the sale first?
Are you looking down on our American players?
But this kind of dissatisfaction did not last long, they also know that this thing is calculated according to different times around the world, and it is quite normal for different regions to launch at different times.
This is the carnival time for players, and video game players are crazy about it.
They didn't even want to wait any longer.
Some chicken thieves are ready to use their technical capabilities to leap to the Japanese region through the Internet to experience the exciting discount activities first.
But most people were turned away without mercy.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment has very strict restrictions on the purchase of games across regions.
This is also to protect yourself and your partners, and it is also equivalent to avoiding cross-selling of goods in different regions.
This is a fairly common method no matter what industry it is in.
American players can only do this.
But at this time, the heat has not dropped in the slightest.
For a person like Du De, he started to become absent-minded during the day at work, and all he could think about was the summer sale.
How big will the discount be in the United States?
Will this discount be limited to Japan?
No, since it is a discount activity launched by Youxing Electronic Entertainment, it should not be treated differently.
But... it's so uncomfortable, I really want to rush to buy the game right away!
Time passed by like this, and on the Internet, those who didn't play games very much began to notice this carnival belonging to the players.
The previous video game players didn’t have a lot of voices on the Internet platform. Most of the time they only shared the game experience in the circle, and occasionally recommended some games to some non-game players who were interested in video games. Will not take the initiative to break the circle for a long time.
But today is very abnormal. They made no secret of their love for video games this time, and at the same time thanked the **** of games for the gift.
God of games, discount events, carnival days.
The keywords are accumulated one by one, and people who don't pay attention to the game can't do it if they don't want to.
So in this state they passively accepted the news.
Discount.
Zhu Youxing believes that the lethality of this word will not be limited to video game players.
Discounts are devastating to most humans, gamers or not.
This is a certain law of psychology.
A game player will be excited and binge when they learn that there will be such a big discount on video games.
A person who didn't play games in the past will be puzzled and curious at first, and then learn that games that used to require more money to buy can be bought at a third or even lower price in this discount event Buying, and video games are really not considered high-consumption things, they will inevitably be tempted.
Even if you don’t know how to play it yourself, if you buy it and experience it for a while, you will have more conversation resources with people around you in the future, so that you won’t have nothing to talk about.
Then just take a look.
It is with this mentality that this discount activity is gradually spreading to more audiences.
Before I only played free mobile games, because the one-time buy-out price of games on home consoles or PC games was slightly expensive, so I was reluctant to pay for games.
But now they didn't hesitate any longer.
When the bell rang at eight o'clock in the evening in the United States, the number of visits to the Battle.net platform and console game stores in the United States began to surge rapidly.
One hundred thousand.
one million.
three million.
five million.
At 8:10 p.m., the instantaneous visits in the entire American region surged to five million.
Countless players and non-players have poured into the official stores of major games.
Equivalent to the number of visits, there are also rapidly increasing game sales.
To celebrate the first sale, Youxing Electronic Entertainment also launched a real-time updated game sales leaderboard.
But this leaderboard is not mainly for players to see.
It is for the partners of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, as well as the game developers who had previously kept a wait-and-see or sneered attitude.
At 8:10, the number one selling game in the United States is GTA San Andreas.
This game is quite friendly to American players.
Because the city setting of this game is the mainland of the United States, playing this game is like experiencing another life in the United States.
Of course, the second and third games are not far behind.
The second is Uncharted.
This game has wonderful cinematic performances, and some of its lens language performances have even become textbooks in the eyes of many filmmakers.
And the game experience is also very good, and the current price is only eight dollars.
Buy, buy, buy!
