Chapter 73 - Fifth Best Selling?
Chang Xiuya urged, “Don’t worry, just slightly buff the cheaper more common cards.”
Chen Mo said, “Sure, then you guys should try this out: MT, Shaman, Blood Elf Mage, Nosuke Shinsuke, and Druid. This is called the “Crow Team” strategy.”
Chang Xiuya said, “Uhh, Nosuke Shinsuke costs quite a bit…”
Chen Mo said, “Uhh how about the Pocket Rocket strategy? Barrel Bull, Priest, Thief, Warlock, and the Five Fireball Priests. These should be easier to obtain.”
Chang Xiuya paid extra attention to that, ready to collect the required cards.
In truth, Chen Mo had built up all the balancing numbers from ground up, and was completely different from the version in the previous world. This meant that the strategies would play differently in this world.
However, Chen Mo still referenced a few more classical strategies and made balance changes according to how easy they were to obtain.
Wen Lingwei said, “Is there really a strategy that could beat the “Unmatched Pro” strategy? I was using that exact strategy during the testing phase and it felt unbeatable!”
Qiu bin looked at the 7.1 rating of I Am MT, completely speechless.
—
Qiu Bin wasn’t the only one shocked, everyone in the industry, video game media, as well as the people following the whole predicament was also shocked.
Ever since I Am MT showed up on the best selling leaderboard, its growth had grown even more, and eventually got to fifth place and maintained that position solidly at the end of the month, when the bet was due!
There was no need for Chen Mo to publish his earnings, most could guess how much I Am MT was making based on the other games on that leaderboard.
Twenty million!
What caused even more head scratches was the fact that the rating for I Am MT always hovered around 7.1 to 7.3, and was as low as seven at its worst.
On the other hand, other games that were in the top ten of the best selling leaderboard were above 8.5, and some of them were above 9.2!
A rating of 7 would usually point to a terrible game, but I Am MT somehow manages to sit comfortably at the top five of that leaderboard, and the number of downloads kept climbing!
Many video game designers and video game media felt that this was completely abnormal and have never seen a game with such terrible reviews making so much money.
Many thought that Guardian of the Holy Spring had no chance of losing after looking at what it managed to achieve, and these people didn’t believe that Chen Mo could make a game that would double the monthly income of Plants vs Zombies.
And when Chen Mo got to making the animations, even fewer of them thought it would end up well.
And when I Am MT reached the top five of the leaderboard, everyone’s socks were blown off.
What’s this?
What’s going on?
Did I miss something?
I thought this game would be a complete flop, how did it do the complete opposite? And manage to completely destroy Guardian of the Holy Spring?
This makes no sense!!
