Chapter 833 (1/2)
In the expectation of the players, ”assassin creed: Origin” has updated two promotional videos one after another.
Castle: the middle ages is not idle. It also updates some videos about how to play.
In fact, strictly speaking, the difference between the game types of these two games is quite large, and there is no absolute sense of competition, unlike ”mysterious sea area” and ”lost treasure” in which the crash is serious.
Many die hard players like similar themes, no matter what Castle: Middle Ages is made of, they will basically buy it.
But this doesn't mean that the two games have no competition. Their main competition is not in their core fans, but in the players who like both types of games.
In fact, in many cases, the division of player groups is relatively vague. Many players play SLG, MoBa and FPS, but they like RPG best. Players like this don't have an absolute preference for a certain type of game. When choosing a game, they will consider other factors, such as the theme of the game.
Castle: the middle ages is not just a simulation build or simulation business game, because this type is not particularly successful in VR games. Compared with PC, the biggest advantage of VR game is the sense of substitution. If you just build a house in the castle and observe the life of farmers and soldiers in the castle from the perspective of God It doesn't make sense to spend money on VR.
Therefore, in castle: the middle ages, simulation management is only a small part. The core experience is to experience the life of the middle ages as a Lord.
For example, walking in your castle, watching blacksmiths forge iron, farmers transport grain, soldiers training, etc., and the real stimulation for players is fighting.
In this game, the cool feeling brought by fighting to players is far greater than that of simulated operation, which is a VR game after all.
Players can experience many different ways of fighting, such as siege, garrison and field battle. For players, the best part of the whole game is to command their own troops to fight outside the castle. After defeating the enemy forces, they take advantage of the situation to attack the city and plunder resources in other castles.
In this part, the combat system of Castle: Middle Ages is very similar to many RPG Games and act games, and even many players consider buying Castle: Middle Ages, mainly to experience its combat system and experience the kind of cold weapon battle that highly restores history, but they are not interested in castle management and construction.
After all, the simple simulation business game, in the VR platform field, has been very unpopular.
So, although Castle: Middle Ages and Assassin's Creed: origin have no absolute competitive relationship, the simultaneous listing of these two games will definitely have a certain impact on each other's sales, especially for those large numbers of marginal players, they are likely to buy only one.
……
Two new CG's released in Assassin's Creed: origin are named ”Egyptian customs” and ”the beginning of legend”.
In ”Egyptian customs”, the whole CG publicity is still all in-game live pictures, but the protagonist is no longer a historical figure, but the scenery of Egypt.
In this propaganda CG, in the melodious and soothing ballads, scenes of desperate situation appear in front of all people.
Pyramids in the long yellow sand.
The hardworking Egyptian people.
The shimmering of the setting sun on the Nile.
An Egyptian city-state in an oasis.
A hippopotamus with a large mouth and a crocodile bite.
A male lion that catches antelopes on the prairie.
Crocodile swimming downstream of the water.
A hyena that Forages on the prairie.
Egyptian slave workers who were building gods.
At the end of the picture, bayek is riding on a camel, overlooking the Egyptian territory at the top of the mountain, which is even more beautiful under the sun.
In the beginning of legend, the whole propaganda CG focuses on bayek.
