As the two largest game manufacturers in China, the debate between NetEase and Tencent about who is better has not stopped over the years. In the previous era of online games, Tencent suppressed NetEase with DNF, CF and LOL. However, with the decline of these three games and NetEase's own strength, more and more players have felt the excellence of NetEase games in quality in recent years. So some players have raised a question in Zhihu, that is, "Why do you feel that the quality of NetEase games is generally higher than Tencent, but the gap between them and Tencent is getting bigger and bigger?" ”
This question has been answered by more than 1,500 people, tens of thousands of people discussing it, and nearly 9 million people are watching. Some big guys pointed out that this is the difference in market position, Tencent can rely on a huge user base and innate promotion channels to complete the harvest of leeks, while NetEase has no user advantage, and can only increase the technical threshold by investing a lot of money.
In fact, this is indeed the biggest weakness of NetEase, without social tools such as WeChat and QQ, NetEase can only engage in technology. Therefore, the quality of NetEase's recent games has been widely praised by everyone. Take NetEase's best card field, after already representing Hearthstone and Duel Link, the two best CCG card games, NetEase is not satisfied with this. After reaching a comprehensive cooperation agreement with Marvel, NetEase developed a new competitive confrontation card mobile game "Marvel Showdown" through the role of Marvel.
In this new generation of card games, NetEase uses 3D holographic technology, so that the card game no longer has a simple "card collision" performance method during the attack and defense, and the character can really appear in the scene and can cause damage to the enemy. Like the familiar Iron Man, US team, spider-man, the game has restored their classic attack actions and special effects.
In addition to upgrading the game screen, Marvel Showdown is also quite friendly in terms of welfare benefits. Each activity will send players a bunch of rewards, and each time a new character is released, player card packs will be sent in advance, and the composition of player cards basically depends on white prostitutes. The only thing that the local tycoon can do is to collect a gold card, but the new deck of Marvel Showdown is reasonable and about 1W is solved, compared to those card games that can't draw anything at hundreds of thousands, Marvel Showdown is simply not too conscientious.
It can be said that it is precisely because NetEase has begun to take the boutique route in recent years that players can feel the improvement of game quality. In order to enhance the reputation, NetEase's new generation of games is much lower in kryptonite strength, which makes netease, which has its own disadvantages in terms of users, and the gap between It and Tencent is even greater. However, this is also temporary, because Tencent is becoming less and less like a game company, and NetEase has come up with such a 3A-level works as Forever Doom, and it is difficult to say who will be the winner in the future.
