Back at his experience store, Qin Bin continued to polish so aspects of Demon Slayers 2.
This ga had been in production for quite so ti and the core gaplay was more or less complete.
But upon considering the effects it would have on Demon Slayers after release, Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt held off on releasing Demon Slayers 2 and chose to keep it in developnt instead.
It was a difficult situation as Demon Slayers was still capable of making more than forty million RMb a month, there wasn’t a need to kill off the previous ga yet.
As the successor, Demon Slayers 2 had so improvents in terms of combat. From pure card combat to a horizontal combat. Players can use different abilities as usual, all they have to do differently was to modify the positions of their characters.
Of course the characters were also upgraded from cards to 2D models. But as a Xianxia thed mobile ga, the characters would be throwing items at one another to attack and had no need to move.
There were still so differences between this and Soul Hunters from the previous world, but all in all it was slightly worse than Soul Hunters.
But Demon Slayers 2 looked amazing thus far. Although the characters still had a cuter artstyle, it wasn’t an immature one.
The shift in artstyle was to satisfy the demands of players for better quality, as well as appealing to as many players as possible. This artstyle would certainly make the ga more popular among the younger audience.
I Am MT had the sa cute artstyle. Qiu bin noticed that the cute artstyle can relieve how quickly the players get tired of the ga which fitted well with fragntation.
Qiu Bin was really confident in Demon Slayers 2 as many settings of this ga had been repeatedly tested.
Qin Bin could confidently say that Demon Slayers 2 will be the best mobile card ga on the market, bar none.
The art and music were all better.
The gaplay was the sa as Demon Slayers with slight innovations.
Moreover, Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt would never skimp on the promotion of Demon Slayers 2 following the success of Demon Slayers. With such a huge distributor behind it, the ga could easily surpass its predecessor.
Qiu Bin was confident that the ga can continue the success of Demon Slayers and continue to hold the best sellers top spot.
It could never make more than eighty million in revenue a month!
It would be incredible for a mobile ga to reach eighty million in revenue a month, but Qiu Bin was really confident because he understood the power of mobile card gas.
As Qiu Bin was dreaming about Demon Slayers 2’s release, his assistant ran out in a panic.
“It’s terrible! We just got news that Chen Mo is making a mobile ga!”
Evidently the assistant ran over the mont they got the news from the shaking in their voice.
Qiu Bin felt like the sky had fallen on his head. What’s going on, Chen Mo is making a mobile ga?!
Is he starting sothing?
But he cald his nerves not long after, asking, “Are you sure? What type of mobile ga is it, is it a card ga?”
The assistant said, “We don’t know, but it looks really likely!”
The assistant handed over his phone to Qiu Bin.
Qiu Bin took a few of the original arts, they all looked like japanese style monsters that were really high quality and their unique features were really clear.
Qui Bin asked, “Where did you get this from?”
“A outsourcing company. This company is the best art company in the country. I know one of the artists there because of our long term relationship with them. He sent it over because he noticed that Chen Mo asked them to do so artwork.” replied the assistant.
Qiu Bin nodded, “Alright, thanks. Did you ask him how many of these he ordered?”
“I’ve asked, he isn’t quite sure, but is confident that it’s over thirty,” replied the assistant.
“Above thirty?” Qiu Bin could feel a chill down his spine. This basically confird that Chen Mo was planning to make a mobile card ga!
The features of these characters were very obvious. Their quality didn’t seem to be split into tiers, and combined with the fact that the characters can change their looks, it’s most likely a card ga!”
The assistant asked, “Should we hurry Demon Slayers 2 along? We can’t go toe to toe with Chen Mo’s ga!”
Qiu Bin waved his hand, “Hold on, let think.”
Qiu Bin’s first reaction was to hurry the ga along to release the ga as soon as possible to avoid releasing alongside Chen Mo’s ga.
The outco of releasing the gas at the sa ti could be horrifying as Qiu Bin was reminded of I Am MT.
But he couldn’t just hurry it along as the quality of the ga may be compromised. Wouldn’t he be shooting himself in the foot?
Qiu Bin said after so thought, “Alright, we’ll do the ga modes that we were thinking about earlier. We’ll grab so testers from Demon Slayers and get their feedback and make changes accordingly.”
The assistant nodded, “Understood.”
“Basically, we need to increase the pace. We’ll get rid of any chanics that aren’t needed as long as they don’t impact the ga play. We’ll do this step by step, but we’ll need to move as fast as possible.
The assistant went off and started to work, but Qiu bin decided to find out more about where these images were from as he was still unsettled.”
“Folklore from the Heian period ? No IP?”
Qiu Bin felt really unsettled.
Any video ga designer would know that card gas depend on their IP, how could Chen Mo not know that?
Chen Mo made an animation and worked on World of Azeroth when he developed I Am MT. Didn’t he spend that ti and effort to make his own IP?
Obviously Chen Mo knew the importance of IP for card gas, much earlier than other designers did.
Then, what’s the new ga about?
Qiu Bin couldn’t believe that this ga didn’t have an IP. He did a lot of research and even asked a few friends who were familiar with Japanese novels about this period. He concluded that there wasn’t any!
Chen Mo didn’t have the backing of any popular anis or novels. Many who were interested in Japanese culture weren’t aware about this the either, not to ntion Chinese players!
Qiu Bin was confused, what was going on?
Could it be that Chen Mo was so good that he could make a card ga without an IP?
That’s not possible!
