After watching the CG video released by Lucas, both players and designers in the ga industry were dumbfounded.
Ordinary players didn't feel much, just marveling at how well the CG promotion for an RTS ga was done!
It was much stronger than previous gas like "Monster Hunter: World" and "Dark Souls."
A visible improvent!
But for industry insiders, what was this one-minute video in their eyes?
It was all piles of bright red money!
"Sadly, I don't have the words, just 'holy crap' will do. This CG is too aweso!"
"Yeah! If Lucas hadn't said before that 'Warcraft' is an RTS ga, I wouldn't have believed it at all!"
"Will the story of 'Warcraft' be done with this level of CG?"
"Probably not, right? How much would that cost?"
"Didn't Lucas say?"
"Holy crap, if that's the case, does that an a huge amount of money was invested in the CG animation?"
"No way? Nebula Gas is a ga company, not an animation company. Does an RTS ga really need to spend so much money?"
"I think it's impossible for other companies, but this is Nebula Gas! Look at the Nebula Gas platform. Could you have imagined anyone doing this before?"
"That's really aweso!"
"I'm more curious about the expression of the designers at Hero Gas. Before, 'Human Warfare' was having its graphics reworked and a new version updated, obviously targeting 'Warcraft.' Now, at least this CG has blown 'Human Warfare' away to who knows where."
Many designers and players in the industry were discussing the CG promotion released by Lucas.
And inside Hero Gas, Felix also looked like he'd been given a really bad experience.
Because the performance of this CG was just too good.
It was completely made by throwing money at it!
Could Hero Gas do it?
Of course, they could!
After all, this thing depends on money.
But he was sure that the proposal to rework the graphics could be approved.
But wanting to make this level of CG was basically impossible.
Did Lucas really spend seven hundred million on an RTS ga?
And most of it was invested in CG production?
Originally, he didn't believe what Nebula Gas had bragged about before, like 'redefining RTS' and 'cost 700 million.'
After all, who doesn't brag in their advertising?
When "Human Warfare" was released, he almost said it was the strongest RTS ga in the galaxy, without exception.
Just like those movies that claim to have cost two hundred million to film, but is that really the case?
No way!
But it can't be denied that having money is really good.
Looking at the video on Lucas's official blog, Felix felt a little jealous.
Of course, those thoughts were just for a mont, and Felix quickly cald down.
After all, what's the use of good CG?
This is a ga, not a movie or animation.
As an RTS ga, you still need to look at the gaplay!
Your CG is aweso, your graphics are aweso, but are these useful for RTS?
Moreover, Lucas had never been involved in the RTS field before. He didn't believe that this "Warcraft" could defeat him completely!
Many designers and players had the sa idea as Felix.
Many people were shocked by the CG of "Warcraft" at first.
But soon, they turned their attention to the ga content.
In so RTS communities and forums, many players who liked this type of ga were also discussing it.
"Have you guys been paying attention to the news about 'Warcraft'?"
"Of course, I have! That CG is amazing, but I don't know what the quality of the ga is like."
"I feel like it won't be bad, after all, Lucas made 'Monster Hunter: World,' 'Minecraft,' and 'Dark Souls' before."
"But RTS is different!"
"Yeah, RTS is different from general ga types. Graphics and CG are just extras. The main thing is gaplay and balance."
"Who cares, isn't there a free trial version later? Won't it be clear if you experience it yourself?"
"That's true."
............
Along with the discussions of players and industry designers, ti slowly ca to November 11th.
"Warcraft's" trial version has already opened download channels in advance, allowing players to download in advance, and then enter the ga to play at the first ti of unlocking.
The content of the trial version is similar to the previous "Monster Hunter: World."
Because Lucas directly made the Chaos Reign and the Frozen Throne of his previous life into one version.
So in terms of the plot, players can fully experience the content of the first chapter in addition to the prologue.
That is the story of the disaster of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
But the online battle mode is temporarily in an ununlockable state.
In addition, during this ti, Lucas also successively announced so new news about "Warcraft."
First of all, it is the ti of the official launch. This ti is different from the previous "Monster Hunter: World."
It is much earlier, and the official version will be launched on November 15th.
As for the price, the dostic price is 198 yuan, and the overseas price is 39.9 dollars.
As before, there is a steel box collector's edition. The dostic price is 899 yuan, and the overseas price is 159.9 dollars. Compared with the ordinary digital version, the collector's edition has a set of Blu-ray DVDs with all CGs, and a collector's edition Frostmourne figure, as well as an art collection album and related race, character, and world view background descriptions, which can be said to be quite a lot of content.
However, just talking about the pricing of the digital version, it is lower than so traditional action, RPG and FPS masterpieces, but it is considered a high level in the field of RTS.
"This price is a bit expensive!"
"Not expensive, look at Lucas's previous gas, the pricing is basically more considerate of dostic players, and the quality is beyond reproach. The pricing of this 'Warcraft' is much more expensive than similar RTS gas, but I'm looking forward to it more!"
"That's right, that's right. In the past, Lucas's gas were cheaper than similar types, and the quality was very good. This ti, Nebula Gas surprisingly offered such a high price, and I think it must be worth the money!"
"One digital version and one collector's edition, no explanation!"
"Aweso, bro, but I'll download a free trial version first to see what the quality is like before making a decision."
"That's right, anyway, there are still 4 days between the official launch and the trial period. If it suits my taste, I can just buy it directly."
Because the strategy of launching a free trial version first was adopted, many players had no worries at all, and they downloaded it one after another to see what kind of thing the ga with such aweso CGs released before was actually like.
