If you haven't played *Honkai Impact 3rd*, you might have blown some praise towards *Girls' Expedition*.
But after playing *Honkai Impact 3rd*, you come back to play *Girls' Expedition*...
He really couldn't think of any words of praise, even racking his brains.
*Honkai Impact 3rd*'s character movements are smooth and natural, with strong feedback from the combat, beautiful character art style, and innovative gameplay...
While *Girls' Expedition*... the character movements are stiff, the combat feels terrible, the character art style is bizarre, and the gameplay... almost 80% is exactly the same as *Honkai Impact 3rd*.
Many things are just renamed.
Even this red-haired, mature woman, might be based on Kiana's character design.
Not to mention the soundtrack and voice acting...
It's like an unfinished game!
While playing, a pained expression even appeared on his face.
"xdm, this game... isn't bad... but I choose *Honkai Impact 3rd*."
After saying that, Doluo directly ALT+F4...
He immediately opened *Honkai Impact 3rd*.
The barrage:
【Hahaha... that's hilarious, where are Tencent's leeks? Why aren't they speaking?】
【Really... even Doluo is speechless hahaha...】
【To be fair, Zera is still very beautiful in the short film, but... why is she so weird in the game? Hahaha】
【Look at Doluo's pained expression... I finally know why he doesn't want to test games anymore】
【That's hilarious, I want to swear, but I don't dare hahaha...】
Looking at the barrage of teasing comments, Doluo could only smile wryly.
In the gaming streamer community, he's also considered a very famous streamer.
Therefore, when he streams, he always considers his words carefully in his heart.
For a giant internet company like Tencent, he really wouldn't dare to swear in public.
But unfortunately, with *Honkai Impact 3rd* as a comparison, he couldn't find a single reason to say anything good about *Girls' Expedition*.
"Sigh... xdm, calm down, actually, I think you guys can give *Girls' Expedition* some time, I guess many players have already sent feedback to the official."
"As long as Tencent makes adjustments in time and studies the anime rendering of *Honkai Impact 3rd*, this game is still playable."
"After all, this is also considered the only alternative to *Honkai Impact 3rd*."
【So, is this the excuse you thought about for half an hour?】
【Goose, goose, goose... what are you guys talking about? Doluo just thinks that since he spent money on *Honkai Impact 3rd*, he's just losing money if he doesn't play for a while】
【Comparing these two, miHoYo is truly amazing... they're a small workshop, but they've completely dominated Tencent】
【miHoYo: You flatter me, it's all thanks to the help of my peers】
【This time, it's safe to say Tencent underestimated them】
…………
At the same time, many *Honkai Impact 3rd* players downloaded and tried *Girls' Expedition*.
But without exception, they were all shocked by the bizarre art style.
Almost none of them lasted for half an hour.
And those who lasted for half an hour were mostly gamers who hadn't played *Honkai Impact 3rd*.
However, even those who hadn't played *Honkai Impact 3rd* couldn't accept the bizarre art style of *Girls' Expedition*.
Just two hours after launch, Tencent's inbox was almost filled with feedback emails.
"Xiao Yi, how are the stats?"
"Download numbers are very impressive, but... the later stats are a bit concerning."
Zhao Wenbo glanced at the backend data and discovered that the player retention rate was pathetically low.
After these days of preparation, *Honkai Impact 3rd*'s popularity in China was completely unstoppable.
Therefore, he didn't have any illusions about defeating *Honkai Impact 3rd* upon launch.
But... the data shouldn't be that far behind *Honkai Impact 3rd*...
Only one-tenth of players play for more than half an hour??
"What went wrong?"
Zhao Yi scratched his cheek, a little embarrassed, "Most players' feedback... is that the graphics aren't pretty enough, the art style is a bit strange..."
"Graphics?" After hearing Zhao Yi's words, Zhao Wenbo's face immediately turned cold, "Call the art director over here!"
Soon, a bald man rushed over, his face full of anxiety.
"Mr. Zhao..."
"Tell me, what's the situation."
The bald man looked distressed, "Mr. Zhao, I can assure you that the character modeling is definitely no worse than miHoYo's."
"Then tell me why the player feedback is almost entirely about graphics issues?"
"This..." The bald man was a little helpless, "It's a problem with the rendering..."
"At first, we assumed miHoYo was also using the same rendering technology, but when we tested it, we discovered the issue... and by then, the game was about to be launched..."
After listening to the bald man's explanation, Zhao Wenbo finally calmed down.
This wasn't the art team's fault, after all, even he hadn't expected this.
"Go back, you guys need to work harder recently and see if you can adjust the art style issue a bit."
"As for whether to develop new rendering technology... I need to ask higher-ups about that."
Seeing that Zhao Wenbo wasn't blaming him, he finally relaxed.
But he didn't know that Zhao Wenbo was already planning to shift the blame onto him.
After all, the game had spent so much manpower and resources, and it crashed upon launch, someone had to take the fall.
"Xiao Yi, send out an apology notice and announce our partnership with Yu Weiwei."
"Tell Yu Weiwei's side to cooperate with the promotion, then tell the art team to work overtime and get Yu Weiwei's model done as soon as possible."
"This time, we can't lose so badly..."
PS: I had something to do today, sorry for being late.
