Almighty Game Designer

Soon, the emperor's mutual entertainment received a reply from the ga. For the "League of the League" information provided by the emperor and the follow-up amendments to the cog, the ga aspect was very important. Raman Clive personally replied, but still Did not reveal too much meaning to modify.

"I understand your philosophy very well. If League of Legends really gets such a high retention rate, then this is really a very bad news for cog."

“But I still think that complexity and diversity are the key to this kind of game. Simplifying the operation can really make more people easy to use, but it is very likely to damage the fun of the game itself and overdraw the vitality of the game in advance.”

"For a game, the difficulty of getting started determines its audience, but the depth and complexity of the game skills determine its competitiveness and upper limit. I think the simplicity of League of Legends is a short-sighted behavior, is it Reasonable need to be treated with caution."

"Of course, I will also seriously consider your suggestions, adjust the difficulty of some heroes, and thank you again for your support of cog promotion."

After reading Raman Clive's reply, Lin Zhaoxu sighed. Obviously, Raman Clive's attitude was ten refusal, although the emperor's mutual entertainment provided a very detailed experience report and game data. But Raman Clive still insists on his own point of view.

He certainly understands the importance of simplifying the game for promotion, but he is right. The game is too simple and will make the game itself lose depth. The types of games that are relatively hot in e-sports, such as fps and rts, have a very high game depth. The game has never heard of casual mobile games can play esports.

Lin Zhaoxu understands that Raman Clive is obviously a more dictatorial person. He has a strong confidence in his own design, which is a common problem for many talented designers. Maybe the cog will have some simplification, but it is absolutely impossible to simplify it to the League of Legends.

Lin Zhaoxu was somewhat disappointed, but he accepted the matter very quickly.

Yeah, anyway, the emperor's mutual entertainment has decided to do "the ancient catastrophe", and there is a simplified version of the "League of Legends", so that cog to maintain its complexity and competitiveness is also a good choice.

Both games are pushed at the same time, which one will be used.

......

Years later, League of Legends continued to be hot.

A special name was quickly spread among the player groups, and many players began to be happy to refer to "League of the League" as "撸 撸 。".

This abbreviation is derived from a microblog of Chen Mo.

"The overseas version of "League of Legends" is being planned. The English name is "leagueoflegends", which is referred to as lol. What should the short name of Chinese name be?"

Under this Weibo, many players have a message to watch the lively and uncomfortable attitude, and the short names are also varied.

Like "British Union", "Alliance", etc., but the most praised is the homonym of the English translation: "撸 撸 撸".

Soon, this name spread quickly among the players, and "playing two games of "League of Legends"" was also said by many people to be "two" or "two." ".

Although this name seems a bit cumbersome at the beginning, its appearance has greatly promoted the spread of League of Legends.

Because the name "League of Legends" is very formal, it is not enough to show the full nature of the game itself.

In terms of English abbreviation, lol itself is a short laugh (laughoutloudly), which is a idiom, so in foreign countries, this abbreviation is very popular.

However, the Chinese name of League of Legends has always lacked a very simple and easy to remember name. If it is referred to as "British Union" or "Alliance" by convention, it sounds like a very formal international organization. Not like a game.

The emergence of “撸 撸 撸” is a good solution to this problem. This short name fits well with the relatively young player group of League of Legends, and the name of the grounded air helps to quickly gather popularity. So in a very short period of time spread the entire "League of Legends" player group, and even many people who do not play this game know the name.

The second creation of some video authors, such as a video column "Altar News", also allowed the name to spread out at a faster rate.

At the same time that "League of Legends" is hot, various anchors and video ups have also played a role in fueling the game.

At present, there are three or four million-level "League of Legends" anchors in China, and there are several series of videos with higher popularity.

Some talented players who quickly hit the diamonds in qualifying and even hit the king opened the live broadcast, and soon they gathered a lot of popularity.

Of course, this is mainly because Chen Mo brought a good start. During the live broadcast of Chen Mo, the anchor, the audience, and the live broadcast platform all saw the powerful potential of the game "League of Legends". After Chen Mo stopped broadcasting, these audiences There is nowhere to go, and soon a few million-level big anchors are spawned.

And the major live broadcast platforms are also tapping some potential players, raising the price of the "League of Legends" anchor, and even the anchors of some other games have begun to switch to the embrace of "League of Legends."

In terms of video, there are three relatively well-known video sections in China, namely, "Xintan Express", "Weekly Big Show" and "Lol Pottery Collection".

The directions of the three video columns are different.

The "Altar News" is mainly to share and introduce some of the latest news, version changes, new hero information and so on.

"Weekly Show" is a highlight of some videos, high-end operation.

"Lol Pottery Collection" is a pothole operation and funny operation of some players, mainly based on the low end.

As the saying goes, "early birds have insects to eat," and this is true in any field. The emergence of a new game has changed the entire anchor circle and video author circle. These forerunners have a more olfactory sense and are the first to launch content for this new game, which is easier to change in the context of rapid changes in the big environment. Eat meat.

This is a win-win for the anchor, the video author, and the game of League of Legends itself.

......

As for Chen Mo, it is beginning to shift the focus to the development of new versions and the production of overseas versions.

At present, all the work of "League of Legends" has been on the right track. In the country, the entire PC circle is being swept at an extremely fast speed, and the player group has shown a trend of automatic proliferation.

In terms of promotion, as long as the original promotion plan is maintained and the current growth momentum is maintained.

At this stage, the promotion method is no longer important. The key is to keep the game sticky to the players and constantly introduce new content.
