American Fantasy Engine R&D Company!

CEO Carter Walker was sitting blankly behind his desk, looking blankly at the dimmed tablet screen in front of him——

"It's hard to turn around! The performance of the Fantasy VI engine is poor! Players expressed great disappointment!"

"SNG Review Editor-in-Chief Simon Rui commented: What truly conquers players is never simply showing off their skills"

"The market value has evaporated by 3 billion in a single day! Following the release of the price adjustment policy, the single-day market value of Fantasy fell by more than 20% for the first time!"

"The bubble of fantasy will eventually burst! Where should the fantasy that is hovering on the edge of total collapse go?"

"Disastrous performance! Atlantic Financial News comments on the trap of fantasy "high-profile publicity"!"

"The building is about to collapse? Fantasy VI, which had high hopes before, may be "the straw that breaks the camel's back"

"..."

Exploded.

It all exploded.

The reviews exploded, the stock price exploded, and the market value exploded.

As Golden Wind's "GTFO" was announced, sales exceeded four million units in a single week.

Fantasy VI's debut game - "Endless Undertow", which was originally overshadowed by "Rainbow Six" - finally encountered its darkest moment.

You said that "Rainbow Six" has a high investment, with technical support from Aurora Games, and a development cost of over 200 million. Like "Endless Undertow", it is a 3S-level multiplayer game. It is completely based on late strikes and caught them off guard. You can

.

But what about GTFO?

Lower cost, less publicity, and higher difficulty than Endless Undertow.

The same theme, the same type, the same multi-person collaboration.

But in terms of somatosensory experience, effect presentation, game sales and other aspects, it completely surpassed the endless undercurrent.

What will players think?

What will investors think?

A new generation engine built with huge investment!

I wanted to make a splash in my first show, lead a new trend, regain my market share again, and become the leader in the game engine industry!

But it became a joke in the industry!

No improvement! No features! No meaning!

"Golden Wind itself, combined with Yiyou's external full-sensory assistance, is not inferior to Fantasy VI..."

"I thought Huanmeng was going to have a big show, but I didn't expect it to be a big one..."

"The early publicity was so intense, it was unprecedented, and it was ahead of the times, but in the end it was nothing special, not even comparable to GW's non-3S GTFO..."

"It's okay if you don't use this new engine, but you'll die faster if you use it..."

"I just want to increase the price of the game and make another profit..."

"I was quite hesitant at first, but in the end I came up with this thing. It is simply the biggest scam of the year..."

"Cherish life and stay away from illusions..."

"..."

All-round sales crushing!

As the media said, at this time, after the last hope of a comeback was dashed, Fantasy encountered the most deadly dark moment in the company's history!

It didn’t take Carter Walker too much thought to predict!

Next up!

What they will face is not only the large number of investors who have completely lost confidence in them and left the market, but also the abandonment of more manufacturers who had barely maintained cooperation, and the more crazy market encroachment by their peers!

Looking back on this turbulent year!

Since the price adjustment policy was announced at the beginning of the year!

Nine months so far!

The Golden Wind engine was launched and "Battlefield: Rise" was produced;

Golden Wind announced that it will cooperate with Phenix engine to jointly develop "Dark Soul";

Golden Wind announced its cooperation with Aurora Games to develop and produce "Rainbow Six";

Three major works! Three major nodes!

Every node is a direct factor leading to the fluctuation and decline of their fantasy market value!

And as this moment comes!

Golden Wind competes with Yunwei and launches the first-person thriller FPS "GTFO"!

The fatal blow finally landed on their hearts!

The already crumbling and dangerous building finally collapsed, and the already fragile and pathological bubble finally burst.

The short-term revenue increase brought about by the price adjustment policy cannot escape the subsequent fatal side effects.

Returning to the top of the industry and becoming the leader is already a dream.

Their final destination is to be abandoned by the game industry that they rely on for survival.

"...President? President!"

"ah?!"

With a cry, Carter Walker woke up from his daze.

Looking at the assistant who opened the door and entered the office at some point, Carter Walker paused for three seconds before trembling his lips and asking:

"How is it going?"

"The situation... uh..."

The assistant looked troubled and pondered for a moment, then sighed softly and said:

"Yunwei said that President Kaunik went out to attend a meeting and would meet us later. It is said that... he is heading to Neon."

"oh oh……"

Carter Walker nodded slowly, as if he had expected this result:

"As for prestige..."

But he didn't wait for him to finish.

I saw the assistant slowly shaking his head.

it is more than words.

"Good... good... good..."

After saying hello three times in a row, Carter Walker picked up the coffee drink on his desk.

I wanted to take a sip, but couldn't pour out a drop for a long time.

"you--"

The assistant stepped forward, took the drink bottle, unscrewed the cap, and handed it back to him:

"alright."

"Thank you, um, thank you..."

Carter Walker took the cappuccino drink and took a sip. He felt that today's coffee was particularly bitter.

it's over.

There is nothing left to say.

Cornick won't be meeting them "later" either.

If the news is correct, Cornick may have really gone to Neon this time.

Go to Neon to meet Comella’s chief executive Itosuke—discuss the introduction of Comella’s self-developed engine.

There are not many game groups in the world that have reliable self-developed engines, and Camera is one of them.

Of course, it goes without saying why it needs to be connected to Camera’s self-developed engine.

As for Prestige...

Carter Walker took a deep breath and exhaled in despair.

Cornick is Vivendi’s mouthpiece in the gaming industry, and naturally represents Vivendi’s attitude.

Too.

A global game engine industry flagship company with a market value of 20 billion has shrunk and plummeted to a company with a market value of over 10 billion in just nine months.
