Chapter 240: Trying Out
Editor: Exodus Tales
Finally, after all the hyping, Minecraft and Thousand Hells announced their release dates.
Both games were released on the first of August. Thousand Hells was priced at 1288 RMB, whereas Minecraft was priced at 128, a tenth of Thousand Hells.
Based on its pricing, Thousand Hells looked to be a middle of the road VR game, but in reality, its quality was below average.
Because it had a monotonous playstyle just like Diablo. There weren't many microtransactions in the game either, meaning that most of the profits would come from selling actual copies of the game. The game was actually relatively cheap compared to other VR games when taking into account the fact that players wouldn't have to spend a simple penny after buying the game.
Of course this didn't mean that Emperor Dynasty Entertainment had a change of heart. It was just that Thousand Hells didn't take up a lot of resources and many of the maps were reused, significantly reducing development costs.
