Chapter 32 The Cowherding Cult Everyone Calls for Beating
Chen Ba entrusted a fan to design the studio’s logo icon.
Core players, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
When Chen Ba revealed in the fan group that Tianba Studio was about to change its logo, and wanted to ask everyone for their suggestions, a design guru unexpectedly emerged.
In addition, there are many big bosses hidden in the group.
There are employees who work on mobile games at a pig factory. They play "Household Simulator" while at work, and at night they are still in the group chatting with each other.
There is a low-key uncle who drives Cullinan. He carefully asked in the group whether his computer configuration can enable the highest image quality? Then everyone took a look, um... 3090?
The identities of these players who like to play stand-alone games are really diverse.
Chen Ba felt deeply about this.
If the other party hadn't taken the initiative to confess, he might never have imagined that the core player group he built included not only employees from the pig factory, but also an employee from the goose factory.
"Think about it seriously!"
The identity of this Goose Factory employee is unknown, but he told Chen Ba that Tianba Studio has attracted the attention of Goose Factory and may contact him in two days.
Do not misunderstand!
It is not about acquisition or investment directly.
Goose Factory sent people to contact Tianba Studio, simply wanting to bring "Hanchuang Kudu Simulator" and "Living Under the Fence Simulator" to their Wegame platform.
"I feel very good."
Regarding this matter, Yang Dong and Lu Jing both expressed their acceptance.
Wegame has a bad reputation among players. That’s from the player’s perspective. From the perspective of a game developer, why not accept the invitation?
You can’t make money without making money, right?
Although Wegame was once jokingly called an online game launcher, most players only play the above online games, and few people will buy a stand-alone game.
But the user base is still quite large. With such a terrifying user base, some stand-alone games can still achieve good sales performance.
The most important thing is that neither of Tianba Studio's two games are "XX platform exclusive" games.
Since it is not exclusive, then having one more sales platform will bring one more source of income. As long as the share ratio given is acceptable, why not?
The people from the goose factory came very quickly.
Probably because they often talk about this kind of thing, after understanding the situation, the two parties basically had no disputes and quickly reached an agreement.
Before leaving, the person in charge of the goose factory also left his contact information.
He told Chen Ba that he could contact him at any time if he encountered difficulties, and that Goose Factory would be happy to invest in a "promising" studio like Tianba.
"As expected of a rich goose!"
After sending away the guests from Pengcheng, Chen Ba looked at the business card in his hand and couldn't help laughing.
The goose factory is still the same as before, casting a wide net.
Don't worry about whether we can catch big fish or not. In short, we have money, so we can just cast the net everywhere. A blind cat encounters a dead mouse. As long as the investment is broad enough, it can always make a right investment once or twice.
Even for a fledgling small workshop like Tianba Studio, they were unwilling to miss out and became the first investor to extend an olive branch to Chen Ba.
It’s good to have money!
After casually putting the business card into his pocket, Chen Ba didn't have any other ideas.
When you encounter extreme people, your blood may well up at this time, and you may feel that you have dirty hands with the money from the goose factory, so you turn around and throw the business card into the trash can.
But he would not throw it away, nor would he object to such overtures.
It is always a good thing to leave yourself a way out. No one can guarantee that the future will be smooth sailing. Since life is full of uncertainties, why should you be too confident?
What happened to the money in the goose factory?
When life really hangs on a thread, whoever gives the money is the father!
…
In addition to Goose Factory's platform, Chen Ba also moved his games to several other PC game platforms.
The host platform is also available.
However, Tianba Studio has not made any optimizations for the host platform, which also leads to the game experience being completely incomparable with PC.
Especially the old Ren’s Switch.
Although this thing can be played, the experience is not that smooth. Anyway, Chen Ba has not optimized it, and few players on Switch have purchased and downloaded it, so it doesn’t matter.
PC is the current optimization focus of Tianba Studio.
No way, who made the proportion of PC players reach 99%? If you don't take care of the feelings of PC players, are you waiting to receive bad reviews?
When it comes to bad reviews, Chen Ba gets very angry.
On the steam platform, the evaluation of "Hanchuang Kudu Simulator" has changed from "rave reviews" to "mostly favorable reviews".
The reason is also very simple.
Many old players who bought the game in the early stage felt like they were stabbed in the back after seeing the latest discount on this game, so they changed their positive reviews to negative reviews.
"I bought it at the original price, I am Sabei!"
The comment area is full of this sentence, and along with it, there is a red thumbs down, which means "not recommended".
In addition to the 50% discount promotion and negative reviews from players who were stabbed in the back, some negative reviews of the game come from the abominable "Cow Herding Cult".
Because the Cowherding Cult is so rampant, the player community and official fan groups will immediately expel and ban members of the Cowherd Cult as soon as they discover them.
So, they resisted.
Under the call of the leader of the Cowherd Cult, countless followers of the Cowherd Cult poured into the game review page and gave the game negative reviews.
This isn't the end of the story. If it were just a matter of negative reviews, then Chen Ba wouldn't find the Cowherd Cult offensive, and would at best ignore them.
But this group is really too abstract!
They not only develop believers in "Hanchuang Kudu Simulator", but also go to other games' videos, comment sections or fan groups to spread the doctrine and develop believers.
This kind of behavior is commonly known as causing war!
Fans of other games are not vegetarians. If the Cowherd Cult makes trouble, they will definitely want to take revenge, but they can't do anything about the Cowherd Cult.
then what should we do?
Of course, he came here to write negative reviews for "Hanchuang Kushu Simulator", to criticize the spicy chicken game, and to teach everyone to get rid of it and punish it.
"I really cried to death..."
Chen Ba wiped the non-existent tears from the corner of his eyes and pretended to be moved: "Why are they working so hard to attract traffic to their beloved game?"
"Yes! I'm already in tears."
Yang Dong was also dumbfounded: "Being able to make everyone shout and beat him up is not necessarily a skill! Thinking on the bright side, at least this has nothing to do with us. We have been cracking down on the cattle herding cult."
Those who don’t know may think that the so-called Cowherding Cult is a fake army deliberately bought by Tianba Studio. After all, this kind of drainage method is really too low-level.
Fortunately, Tianba Studio released the Holy Separator early and cut off this group in advance, otherwise they would have been scolded even worse.
Alas, navy...
Chen Ba thought of someone.
"Brother Ba, don't worry, I will help you promote it in the comment section of each game video, and attract more players to the trap..."
Thinking of what Wang Kun once said, Chen Ba fell silent for a moment.
Could that leader of the Cowherd Cult, who has a mysterious identity, talks crazy words, and does things very erratically, be his good brother?
