Chapter 213 1 Some Controversies

Overall, the overseas promotion of "Diablo" did not encounter too many difficulties, and it was better than "Warcraft".

After all, after the release of "Warcraft", Thunder Interactive Entertainment also gained a certain reputation overseas, especially among some player groups who like this theme. It has attracted the attention of many players.

Moreover, the Western fantasy theme is more popular in foreign countries, especially in the European and American markets. "Diablo" itself is an RPG theme, which has a wider audience than RTS games such as "Warcraft".

Unlike domestic players, overseas players have not criticized the third-person perspective too much, because there are more independent games overseas, and there are more players who like stand-alone games.

Among these independent games, many small studios are limited by cost issues and can only develop such RPG games from a third-person perspective, so overseas players are more accepting of such RPGs than domestic players.

After the promotion and warm-up, in the expectation of players, the overseas version of "Diablo" is officially launched!

The overseas version of Diablo is priced at $49, which is much more expensive than Warcraft. After all, "Diablo" has more investment and better production. It is also an RPG game with a wider audience.

...

The overseas version of "Diablo" is officially released.

Soon, these players were attracted by the unique art style and sophisticated plot of Diablo.

Different from domestic players, overseas players, especially players in Europe and the United States, have a deeper understanding of this cultural background, and are more likely to resonate with the world created in "Diablo".

At the same time, the concepts of angels, demons, and Nephalem are too friendly to European and American players. The story of Nephalem saving the world is very in line with the values ​​of personal heroism in Western culture, and the role of Tyrell is to a certain extent. Get to the point of Western political correctness.

Without exception, these players are full of praise for the plot of "Diablo".

...

Supreme.

"Tyrael,

The ancient law of the highest heaven strictly forbids us to interfere in the affairs of mortals!"

"But you did it anyway, and... blatantly!"

Imperius stood on a high throne, his golden armor shone, his flame wings fluttered, and he looked like the incarnation of a god, full of majesty.

Wearing silver armor, Tyrael showed no signs of weakness: "Imprius, all my faults are to show justice! And you, you will only hide behind your throne secretly!"

"shut up!!"

Imperius turned into a streamer and charged straight towards Tyrael, grabbing the armor on his chest.

"Now, you must be punished for this!"

The golden light and the silver light started a melee, and in the end, Tyrael took the spear of Imperius and pointed the tip of the spear at the Archangel of Courage of the Supreme Angris Council, and he was righteous. "You have no right to judge me, because I am the embodiment of justice!"

"What we should do is not only fight the devil, but also protect those innocent people!"

"But if our supreme commandment leaves you alone, then... I will no longer be with you!"

Tyrael gripped his angel's shoulder armor with both hands and let out a growl of pain. The divine power of the angel began to burst out continuously, sweeping the entire hall.

Imperius involuntarily took a step back and said angrily: "Go against the sky and sin, and let yourself fall!"

Tyrael's wings fell and melted on the ground of the highest sky. The red flames began to burn his whole body, and tentacles composed of divine power grabbed his arms and dragged him into the mortal world.

Tyrael turned into a meteor and fell towards Tristram Cathedral.

...

The plot of "Diablo" has also caused heated discussions among overseas players.

"To be honest, I was most surprised by this story of Tyrael. The world view of "Darkness" seems to be very desperate. The protagonist fights alone no matter where he goes, as if he has never had an enemy, but Tyrael should belong to the ability The type that helps a little bit."

"I think the screenwriter's positioning of Tyrell's character is too accurate, and a series of plots also show Tyrell's character vividly."

"As an angel of justice, he strictly observes the law, rules and order, maintaining fairness and justice at all times, as it is the duty of the angel of justice."

"But at a critical juncture, in order to save the world, Tyrael chose to stand on the side of humans, personally violated the precepts of the Supreme Heaven, and abandoned his identity as an angel. I think this spirit is really precious!"

"Yes, there are very few foreign games that can give me this kind of touching from the plot and story. "Diablo" did it. Sure enough, Thunder Interactive Entertainment has continued their meticulous work on the plot. , this episode is really great!"

...

Similar to when "Diablo" was released in China, players had a high initial favorable impression of this game, especially after experiencing all the plots, the overseas version of "Diablo" once scored about 9 points.

Chen Mo estimates that the domestic and overseas sales of "Darkness" together, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com can reach 10 million sets, although it is far less than the 30 million sets in the previous life, but this data is already very impressive. .

However, while the overseas version of "Diablo" is selling well, there are more and more disputes about this game.

Part of it is from overseas players.

"I think I was cheated by the developer. Although the plot of this game is well done and the quality is great, the later stage is really boring! It's unbelievable, this game is really bad compared to "Warcraft" Too much!"

"Yes, even by the standards of a single-player game, it's a bit too monotonous. It reminds me of some Korean games. It looks beautiful, but it's actually a mess!"

"Uh, although I think the above two are a little harsh on this game, but I also think so. Although this game is impeccable in terms of plot and quality, its follow-up gameplay is not as good as those who are full of sincerity. Games. So I can only give it a 7."

"It's a very boring game. I don't understand why the designer has to make more than a dozen difficulties. Does he expect us to play it day after day until we reach the highest difficulty?"
