The Winner is King [Quick Wear]

Piracy, the sworn enemy of all creators.

Works that have been poured out with painstaking efforts are easily stolen by others and become a tool for them to gain money, fame and fortune. When producers defend their rights, most of them also curse victims and tout piracy because they take advantage.

This has chilled countless creators.

The domestic film and television industry, original music, online literature and other fields are all victims of piracy, and the most deeply affected by piracy is the domestic game industry.

People who don't play games, don't care about games, or younger gamers, they may not know that domestic stand-alone games were once prosperous, and there was also a golden age when a hundred flowers were blooming and flourishing. That, although the technology has deficiencies, but the gap is not too big. Game producers, burning dreams and blood, created many classics that did not lose to foreign games at that time. It also established a unique game theme type for domestic games - martial arts/Xianxia RPG.

"The Legend of the Heroes of Jin Yong", "Xuanyuan Sword", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "The Love of Swordsmen", "The Legend of the Heroes of the Martial Arts", "Qin Shang"...

Other genres also have excellent works, "Three Kingdoms Zhao Yunzhuan", "Fantasy World", "Fantasy of Wind", "Virtual Life", "Fantasy Western Restaurant", "Anti-Japanese: Bloody Battle on Shanghai Beach"...

There are many, many more names.

It was a time when a new industry took off that was supposed to thrive and catch up. However, game companies in that era barely made any money. Domestic piracy is rampant, fattening countless pirated merchants and making them rich. The developers and producers, however, make little profit, and even lose all their money.

Originally thought to be the golden age of industry development, but it has become the glory of this industry that cannot be returned.

Nowadays, I often see players scolding domestic games for garbage, saying "domestic games just don't work", "even products from small Eastern European countries can't compare."

Why?

Why is the gap getting bigger?

Because when it should be booming, it has already been killed by piracy. The efforts of a generation of gamers are not rewarded, and it is cold. Those who insist also have no money to learn and develop technology.

In the cold winter of single-player games, piracy is the culprit.

"How could this be... I thought the original environment was already good." Wang Ping jumped in anger.

The price of "Xingyue Lakeside" is 38 yuan. The platform and the connoisseurs who got the game in advance have always thought that the price is too low. With its quality, if it is replaced by European and American studios, the price will definitely exceed 100.

"People are aware of genuine copies, but when pirates feed free things into their mouths, how many people can resist the temptation?" Li Xinyue shook his head: "Greed is human nature."

"Someone must be behind the scenes!" Wang Ping shook his head: "No other company has released the cracked version of the game so quickly."

There is also a sense of protecting domestic games in China. Big-name game websites will not link links to cracked versions of domestic games, so that they cannot download them.

"You don't think it's so fast because a small number of studios silently paid 'protection fees' to pirates." Zhang Sa said helplessly: "This is obviously extortion."

Large manufacturers have their own legal departments, and they will deal with piracy issues and recover compensation through legal means. Small studios can only consider themselves unlucky.

The most ridiculous thing is that the pirated version **** the bone marrow of the genuine version. Some players also shouted that the genuine version should be tolerant of piracy. Some people even mentioned cooperation with pirate companies and crack groups. Let the stolen and robbed pay tribute to the thief, ridiculous!

"What should I do?" Wang Ping was anxious, she wanted to do something: "I'll send a friend to report it."

"No need!" Gu Junxin shook his head.

Her eyes were as clear as frost, calm and restrained.

Reporting, posting grievances on Weibo, these are all soft means, and ultimately it depends on everyone's self-consciousness, and even the mercy of the pirate cracker.

Weibo sells badly, this wave of piracy may subside, and domestic sales will pick up slightly, but what about the next time?

The cracking party who has enjoyed the sweetness will still continue unscrupulously, or they will be more daring and will blackmail her to collect protection fees in advance.

This time, her attitude couldn't be softer.

"I'm going to take the legal route." Gu Jun said in her heart, and she looked at Zhang Sa: "Every game sold on the platform has its own key, let's act as soon as possible, click on all download links, and download the files. I can finally use technical means. Go to the other party's Steam payment account, and finally lock the other party's identity."

Determine who is publishing pirated copies, record the number of downloads and forwardings by the other party, fix evidence on the network, and finally file a lawsuit.

How many copies are stolen, make up as many copies as possible, and let them compensate. If you don't have money, go to jail.

Why are small studios reluctant to take legal paths? They don't have the money to sue, they can't hire a good lawyer, and they don't have the energy. It takes a year or two to recover the loss of 1 million, and the cost is as high as 10 million. It is not worthwhile, and it also delays my own development.

However, Gu Junxin still has some money, and she can hire someone to file a lawsuit for her.

Gu's family repurchased her shares for a full 1 billion. The money is being put in the bank to invest in appreciation.

Originally, she planned to use the money as future research and development funds to support the studio in developing its own game engine and 3A games in the future, but now she has decided to use the money as her exclusive rights protection fund. She's going to hit the ground running!

"Zhang Sa, I'm going to set up a legal department. Help me ask the seniors and seniors to see if they are willing to continue to file infringement lawsuits. Everyone is welcome to come here for an internship." Gu Junxin said.

"Okay." Zhang Sa reminded: "Since there is going to be a lawsuit, before fixing the evidence, don't act rashly, so as not to startle the snake."

If the pirate party deletes the link, although Gu Junxin can find it out, he doesn't know if it has any effect.

"Okay!" Gu Junxin asked again: "But I am suspicious if I don't act. Can I send DLC to genuine players to give benefits?"

Only genuine users of the game landing on the distribution platform can receive free DLC.

"Yes. It just feels like you're at a loss." Zhang Sa replied.

"It doesn't count." Gu Junxin chuckled.

That DLC is a dress-up system.

Unlike other games, which feature beautiful dress-up systems, these clothes don't sell for good looks. But putting on different clothes to work will have different degrees of influence on the speed of labor, planting efficiency, and harvest volume, of course, to a slight degree.

The positioning of "Xingyue Lakeside" is a casual simulation game, an atmospheric game, and it is not very competitive and does not need to be too livery. There are a variety of agricultural tools and props in the system, pay attention to meet the needs of the game. The gain of the clothing system seems tasteless.

But there is nothing wrong with making things that are tasteless and relaxing as a free gift.

The action against piracy was discussed, and everyone began to act.

Gu Junxin released a DLC that rewards genuine players on the Internet. Fans were brutally abused and only lamented why the environment was so bad.

Because of the DLC, the domestic sales of “Xingyue Lakeside” began to pick up, but it was still not as good as expected. However, overseas sales continue to rise, and the daily sales are more than 100,000 within a week of release. The discussion is not as hot as "Crybaby", and the evaluation is even higher.

The platform has estimated with a mathematical model that the second game released by Junxin Studio in less than half a year is very likely to surpass Xiaokubao in sales.

This is a fragrance that blooms inside the wall and outside the wall.

Piracy is rampant, and "Xingyue Lakeside" is popular in China, but this popularity only stays on the impression of another piracy victim.

To release DLC, Gu Jun's heart is in the liver program. Although it's a free gift, do it well.

To fight a lawsuit, Zhang Sa, Li Xinyue and other law students all help to find evidence and follow formal procedures.

Wang Ping handles the operation alone, and basically no one does domestic publicity.

"It's not that the movie also pays attention to a schedule. The quality of the game is here, and the word of mouth is also there. You can promote it again when you are free to cooperate with the platform." Gu Junxin was open to it.

It is not easy to make a good game, and it is not easy for players to play a good domestic stand-alone.

When a high-quality game is in hand, enthusiastic players will spontaneously Amway.

At the beginning of the release of "Xingyue Lakeside", there were twists and turns in China, but players who liked it gradually uploaded the video. Although it did not have the momentum of Xiaokubao's blood-washing website at the beginning, it has gradually become a hot division.

Mercury, a hard-core technology boss, opened the live broadcast room, and today he broadcasts "Xingyue Lakeside" live.

[Mercury Mercury, what are the good live broadcasts of casual farm games? 】

[I’m still playing QQ Farm myself, it’s no longer fun, it’s quite boring. 】

"I am curious about the technology of my sister." Mercury said: "The size of the game is only about 8GB, but the quality of his video is comparable to that of 3A, and the character modeling and actions are real and delicate, so you are not curious about the official experience of the game. Is it? I'm curious about what's inside. Besides, the game has been blown to the sky in foreign countries, there must be a good place. Anyway, it's the game producer from our website, so I have to support it anyway!"

With the mind of curiosity and inquiry, Mercury began to play.

Enter the story mode and choose one of the four characters to play.

A 16-year-old high school girl, a handsome 20-year-old boy, a beautiful long-haired royal sister, a female professor with gray hair and a calm temperament.

"Then I'll definitely choose the boy, the role of Xinmei is not balanced by gender!" Mercury sighed casually.

【Hahaha 23333】

[The roles are balanced, and Sister Yu is actually a big boss in women's clothing! 】

After selecting a character, the interface suddenly went dark. In the silence, the sound of the electrocardiograph sounded, and the sound of rapid breathing.

The soothing and peaceful music sounded, and after the protagonist was rescued, he returned to the shore of Xingyue Lake.

"The picture didn't say it, it's beautiful! This part is the same as the trailer. Did you find that, Xinmei used her micro-movie lens movement technique in the game, and the effect was amazing. Of course, it depends on the specifics. Wait and see the official game content."

In the opening animation of less than 2 minutes, the boy chosen by Mercury has to learn how to drive through the bumpy country road.

"This small driving game is really good, and the small details are very interesting." Mercury commented.

Soon, the protagonist came to the shore of Xingyue Lake.

"OMG, this broken place is too broken!" Mercury couldn't help talking.

Although it is still a farm simulation game, Gu Junxin chose not to choose a cartoon or cute style, but to choose a simulation game. She almost moved the real, barren, messy farm into the game. Players have to start from weeding and land reclamation, and start over.

"I have a hunch that this is definitely not a simple casual game!" As an old gamer, Mercury has already smelled the game's routine. You got liver!

The players in the live broadcast room were laughing.

Mercury wanted to run away a bit, and his character wanted to turn around and run. But in the end he picked up the sickle and **** and started to work.

As a veteran player, Mercury gave the game an 8 as soon as the scythe and **** got started.

The cutting sense of the appliance and the real feedback of the use of the props are extremely real. The content of the game is very simple, reclaiming wasteland, planting vegetables, planting flowers, planting trees, and opening fish ponds. It is very simple to operate, turning a barren rural home into a paradise for self-cultivation.

At the same time, in the plot mode, the protagonist's past experiences, the ups and downs of his life, and the sadness and loss will be unlocked with the success and failure of planting and breeding.

The game has a time-of-day system, with twenty-four solar terms a year. Different dishes are grown at different times in different seasons, and there will be blows from different climates in the middle. Drought, torrential rain, blizzard, hail, and even devastating disasters, typhoons, earthquakes.

"My hairy crab!!!!!!!!!!" Mercury wailed.

All the hairy crabs he kept in the lake died.

Viewers can only brush gifts for comfort.

After Mercury howled, he analyzed it carefully: "The operation of this game is very simple. You can complete the game with a little bit of keyboard and mouse, but it's not easy to play well."

[Boss, the guy you chose is the most difficult, and it is simply an African chief. It's time to choose a little girl and experience the feeling of a European emperor. 】

Mercury ignored it and continued to lead the African male lead to open up wasteland.

At the end of the story mode, the story of the handsome guy from Africa is presented in full.

The golden phoenix flew out of the valley, and the golden phoenix worked hard in the city for the happiness of his family. 8 in the morning and 12 in the evening without rest 7 days a week, exhausted my body and saved money. However, he has the ability to support his family, but his family has passed away, and all that awaits him is the old abandoned house and the overgrown fields.

After suffering and with the help of his friends, the African-Emirates finally made his home look like he had when his parents were alive.

"10 points out of 10!" Mercury took off her glasses and wiped her tears, "No way, I'm going to cry."

This is a very simple story, but the plot is cleverly arranged, the language of the camera is excellent, the performance is excellent, the exquisite pictures, and the touching music are all tear-jerking.

In particular, Mercury himself came out of the ravine, worked hard in the city, and empathized with the characters.

In addition to this young man, there are high school students who escape the college entrance examination and do not want to grow up, there are transvestites who were abandoned by their parents and friends, and there are old people who lose their lovers as sunset.

Each character's story is simple and can be expressed deeply.

"I understand why this game is so popular." Mercury said: "It can bring inspiration to players, naturally it is praised again and again."

Of course, in addition to the excellent plot, the gameplay, and the continuous planting process of disasters are also very interesting.

Especially in the free mode, players can play freely and create their own pastoral fields. The developability of the game is very strong.

"I was curious, how did Xinmei compress such rich content into 8GB of content." After being moved, Mercury began to ponder the technology: "Could it be that she developed a unique compression technology?"

Many **** players have also begun to join the analysis, they want to open the encrypted package and study the content carefully.

*

Some games became popular after they were released, while others gradually accumulated and became popular.

"Xingyue Lakeside" instantly attracted attention abroad, but in China, it took a slow road.

However, the fire will eventually catch fire.

After a month of release, the popularity finally caught up slowly.

[If it weren't for piracy that dragged down Xuanfa, it would have been popular long ago! 】

[It's not easy for Xinmei, a team of one person can't handle it at all. 】

When the fans started, they still felt pity.

Piracy is still flying all over the sky, and there are people who spread seeds and links below the major comment areas.

They can only step up reporting.

Two months after the release of "Xingyue Lakeside", Gu Junxin finally posted on Weibo.

[Gu Junxin V: Although Junxin Studio is small, we are also from the Legal Department! 】

Junxin Studio has officially filed a lawsuit against those who wantonly spread and sell cracked games!
