Have you ever made games? Then you should write about games!

the other side.

Within the gaming community, there are quite a few people who share the same thoughts as Su Tao.

Enter the main page of "Vampire Survivor" on the Steam platform, scroll down, and you'll see that the comment section is full of blue positive reviews and recommendations.

Moreover, the players who gave positive reviews all played for more than two hours.

They bought and played Vampire Survivor almost as soon as it was released on Steam, and played for more than two hours, meaning they couldn't get a no-questions-asked refund according to the platform's rules.

This alone is enough to tell the outside world that StarCard Games did not pay online trolls to flood the comments section.

All the positive reviews and recommendations in the comments section are spontaneous expressions of support from players.

While watching the live stream, Chen Dong logged into the Steam platform and quickly browsed the comments under "Vampire Survivor".

"It's simple and easy to pick up, extremely beginner-friendly, and the gameplay is incredibly fun! I'm going to go play now!"

"I never expected a pixel-style game to be so addictive. By the way, I've been able to survive for half an hour without dying. Proud.jpg"

"Awesome, so awesome, incredibly awesome, so awesome I've lost all sense of time and place!"

"A cup of tea, a cigarette, and you can play games all day!"

"How did you develop Star Card? You were able to create such a fun game."

"I hereby declare that Vampire Survivor will replace Devil Roulette as my number one game!"

Seeing that players had spontaneously labeled "Vampire Survivor" as "simple" and "incredibly fun," Chen Dong couldn't help but nod in agreement.

This game only requires players to control the character's movement by pressing buttons. In theory, even players with only one hand can easily play it.

In addition, the unique reward mechanism of "Vampire Survivor" allows players to release a large amount of dopamine in their brains as soon as they start playing, making them feel happy and refreshed, thus attracting them to continue playing.

The thought of how he missed the release date of the chapter in his previous life because he was so engrossed in "Vampire Survivor" that he lost his full attendance bonus for the entire month sent a chill down Chen Dong's spine.

So, Chen Dong casually left a comment in the comments section.

"Moderate gaming is beneficial to the brain, but excessive gaming is harmful to health."

Unexpectedly, the comment attracted replies from players as soon as it was posted.

"The poster is right. Ever since I started playing Vampire Survivor this afternoon, I've felt like time is being drained away, and before I know it, it's dark."

"I felt completely drained, so I ate... Sorry, wrong set."

"Please, please, just let me play one more round of Vampire Survivor, I'll do anything!"

Looking at the abstract replies from the players below the comments section, Chen Dong couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Having an active and diverse player base is a good thing for any game.

Scrolling down the comments, a splash of bright red stands out among a sea of ​​blue thumbs-ups.

"Terrible review. The game has absolutely no difficulty whatsoever. Do the developers think players are idiots?"

"This game is garbage, a complete waste of time, refund my money!"

"The game is completely boring; it's just endless monster killing, utterly uninteresting!"

Seeing three consecutive negative reviews, and noting that none of the three people who gave the reviews had played for more than 10 minutes, Chen Dong couldn't help but frown.

He never expects a game to be recognized and liked by everyone, nor does he believe that there is a game that can satisfy everyone.

However, these three people clearly did not have a basic understanding of "Vampire Survivors" before giving it a bad review in the comments section.

This left Chen Dong feeling quite helpless.

Fortunately, after discovering these three negative reviews, many players spontaneously refuted them on behalf of the Star Card game.

"Dude, you've only played for less than 10 minutes. Did you just buy the game and come here to give it a bad review?"

"I glanced at it, and the other users who gave negative reviews also didn't play for more than 10 minutes."

"Why does this feel a bit like a competitor's alt account?"

"These people are suspected to be paid trolls hired by Teng Yan. You can check the comments section of 'Yan Du Yu'. Most of the positive reviews and recommendations were played for less than ten minutes. I even saw a few familiar IDs."

"Really? I'm going to check it out."

"That's true. And this user even gave it a positive review in the comments section of 'The Rocky Isle,' making the ingredients very clear."

Upon discovering that these negative reviews were most likely posted by paid trolls hired by competitors, Chen Dong shook his head helplessly.

Instead of focusing on developing better games, they've poured their energy into these crooked and unethical practices. No wonder China's game industry is gradually declining.

This behavior can be said to have severely damaged the ecosystem of the gaming industry.

"Are you trying to achieve the effect of 'bad money driving out good' through underhanded tactics?"

After scoffing twice, Chen Dong picked up his phone and checked the trending topics.

The third most searched topic: [Starcard Games' new title, "Vampire Survivor," surpasses one million units sold within one hour of its release!]

Fifth on the trending search list: 【Vampire Survivors, a simple yet incredibly fun roguelike game!】

The sixth trending topic: "If you love him, gift him a copy of 'Vampire Survivor'."

The tenth most searched topic: "If you could only play one game, would you choose *Devil Roulette* or *Vampire Survivors*?"

Four out of the top ten trending topics were related to "Vampire Survivor," which shows how popular "Vampire Survivor" is, even reaching the point of going beyond its original niche.

The vast majority of gamers are men abandoned by capital, whose purchasing power is even less than that of a dog.

However, the appearance of "Vampire Survivor" has given a lot of capital a hard slap in the face.

Sales exceeded 10,000 in three minutes, 300,000 in ten minutes, 500,000 in half an hour, and even reached one million in one hour!

Who says men have no spending power? Who says men are lower in status than dogs?

It's just that you worthless capitalists can't come up with anything that can touch a man's heart.

Chen Dong clicked on the two top trending topics and focused on reading the comments section.

However, just like the gaming community on Steam, the comments section under the trending topics was filled with positive reviews and recommendations.

A few disparaging comments are quickly drowned out by a large number of positive ones.

To be honest, Chen Dong really hoped to see a few genuine negative reviews.

Sometimes, criticism can offer more help and direction than praise.

As a result, no matter how many trending topics Chen Dong searched through the comments sections, he couldn't find a single genuine negative review.

They're either all positive reviews, or they're just paid trolls hired by competitors.

Chen Dong even posted several critical comments in an attempt to attract like-minded people.

"I feel that 'Devil Roulette' and 'Vampire Survivor' still have quite a few flaws, so there's no need to hype them up like this."

"Devil Roulette is poorly made and has monotonous gameplay. Vampire Survivor was good at first, but once you quit, you never want to open it again."

"Does Starcard Games lack modeling and rendering skills? Either it's a poorly rendered version of Devil Roulette, or it's just a pixelated style that doesn't require much graphics polishing."

however.

The owner of StarCard Games criticized the games produced by StarCard Games, which drew a rebuttal from a group of players.

"If you don't like it, you don't have to play. What kind of graphics are you looking for here?"

"The problem you're experiencing isn't with the game at all; it's that you've developed electronic erectile dysfunction."

"OP, if you're so good, you do it yourself. If not, shut up and stop your whining!"

Looking at these comments, Chen Dong suddenly realized...

"Oh no, I've become a hater?!"
