Since the success of the linkage between the Peace Elite and the Maserati luxury car brand, Photon has tasted the sweetness of "linkage". The so-called linkage is to reach a cooperation agreement between brands and brands, and carry out a wave of commercial mutual blowing in an agreed period of time. The most common linkage method in the game circle is basically in the form of launching skins with brand elements.
After observation, the skins designed by photon pure in the past, because the design theme did not meet the public taste and aesthetics, many of the debut skins were complained about by players. Because of the ip effect of the third-party brand, the linkage has frequently won praise after it was launched. In contrast, the current route of the peaceful elite out of the skin is basically based on linkage, drawing a scoop according to the gourd. Instead of taking the risk of independent design being complained about, it is better to directly link with well-known IP for mutual benefit and win-win results, killing two birds with one stone.
However, just recently, the Peace Elite announced the linkage with EVA, and this "blind box" way of unboxing was unexpectedly resisted by many players, yes, resistance. The reason is that the EVA series linkage skin is 2 times the price of the last Ultraman "blind box" event, a single extraction as an example. Here to explain, the price of the previous Ultraman linkage was 60R per time, while the EVA character skin was 120R at a time, and there were also hidden models.
For the launch of this EVA, it is not that the price is sorry for the quality, in fact, the linkage gameplay in all games can be described as a matter of opinion. Under rational discussion, Ultraman and EVA Evangelion both have different loyal fan groups, and these two series of anime are also the childhood memories of many people. Since the linkage method is to "open the blind box each time a bottom skin" on the shelves, why is the price difference before and after doubled?
Or is the EVA IP more valuable than the Ultraman IP? Obviously illogical and common sense.
Therefore, some players have resisted this kind of arbitrary pricing without a lower limit, and called on other players to rationally kryptonite. It has to be said that like this kind of game skin that can be copied infinitely, the "pricing" given by game manufacturers often has no specific scope. Last time shouted 60, you will buy, this time even if it doubles to 120, there will still be people to pay, obviously the photon is spoiled by the player.
So will it be directly 240 times next time? This kind of malicious price increase behavior, to use the term "ugly to eat", seems to be not excessive at all.
After multiple versions of the change, it is not difficult to find that according to the current speed of the peace elite out of the skin, many skins may not be used more than ten times after being pumped, and they must be placed in the warehouse to eat ash forever. At the same time, the game system, which does not have the function of equipment and skin circulation, makes the account retention rate of the Peace Elite only 10% to 15%, which is lower than before.
In other words, an account that has krypton for 10,000 yuan, regardless of other factors, can return 1,000, which is already a very good ending. The account retention rate of The high krypton number is relatively high, but there are fewer people who take over the order. Because of the many platforms that did account recycling in the early stage, there were also a large number of peaceful elite accounts in their hands.
