"The royal sword comes by the wind, and between the heavens and the earth, there is wine and happiness, and I am also insane without wine."
"The Legend of the Paladin Sword" after 27 years, although the IP has experienced great ups and downs, but it has always been an eternal classic of domestic games, is the white moonlight of the fairy theme in the hearts of many players, so whenever there are other games linked with the Paladin Sword, the Sentiment Party will be willing to pay for it.
Before the "King" Yao's Li Xiaoyao skin was not sold first, the animation special effects were restored to the original setting, and the price was relatively conscientious. Recently, the martial arts chicken eating game "Eternal Destruction" that is more suitable for the Immortal Sword also plans to have a linkage, and the character skins of Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er will join the activity.
However, this linkage has different sounds in the sound of "buying, buying and buying":
"Why is it that the character skin, eternal doom can obviously link weapons like the Spirit Snake Staff and the Wangshu Sword?"
"How the Immortal Sword has been linked now, I originally felt that whoever could link with the Immortal Sword would be powerful, and now I feel that the other way around, as long as the money is in place, the Immortal Sword and anyone can link."
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that all kinds of news about the linkage of Xianjian seem to have appeared in recent years, and it is more and more frequent, almost after 2015, the developer of Xianjian, Daewoo, and Zhongmaoyou began to cooperate. The work released that year was "The Legend of the New Paladin Sword", a turn-based card RPG mobile game, which was also the original popular partition roll-on mode, which also confirmed the decline of the Xianjian IP. Especially in the same year, after the word of mouth of "Paladin 6" because of the quality, optimization, combat system and other issues, the player's disappointment with the developer was overflowing, and the life of this IP was coming to an end.
The pain is fixed and the linkage begins. In 2016, the linkage between "Monopoly 9" and Xianjian, jointly developed by Daewoo and NetEase, and the linkage with "Xuanyuan Stegosaurus Dance Cloud Mountain" in 2020, are all their own games and their own linkage, and the look and feel is good.
After that, the linkage with Tencent's strategic mobile game "The King of Chaos" really gave people a feeling of change, and the old players all sighed: The Immortal Sword has fallen to this point? These two games do not match at all, can only say that the forced linkage is too short of money, "Paladin 7" to do no money that is done.
In the middle of the following year, Mobile Games purchased 49% of the shares of Softstar Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Daewoo Information, and obtained all the rights and interests in the mainland IP region of "The Legend of the Paladin Sword". The Xianjian IP that has been obtained at a large price should naturally contribute to the profitability of the mobile game. "Paladin 7" was affected by the bad reviews of the previous game and sold 600,000 copies, and new games such as "The Legend of the New Paladin Sword", "My Royal Sword Diary", and "Town Soul Street: Born to Be King" could not be released because of the two BH winters. Alleviating the dilemma, linkage is a good way.
Now the mobile game will be linked every three to five, do a good job can also go out of the circle, which is a million profits for the mobile game, others pay money, he out of the IP, look at the two years and the "Heavenly Knife Mobile Game", "Heaven and Earth Robbery", "King" and other games of the rotation linkage, it is because the activity is too frequent, the feelings are constantly consumed, which leads to players will feel that the Xianjian IP fell from the high position in the heart, at the current speed, you simply do not know how many games are lined up behind to enter the field and want to rub a wave.
When I was a child, I envied Li Xiaoyao to be able to enjoy the sword and the rivers and lakes, but when he grew up, he found that he was not at all idle, whether in the plot of the game, or now in various games to show his face, he will always be subject to the reality of hardship and helplessness. To be honest, I really want him to have a good rest and stay in the hearts of the players.
I am a game fungus, like ACG related information, eat melon spit, just point a concern ~ thanks
