I found "Lan Kong VOEZ Collector's Edition" on tap, and when I looked at the price, it was 18 yuan, a buyout, and 156 songs. I was stunned at that time. Are there any manufacturers doing this these days? Rhea's music foundation and the combination released by Longyuan are indeed reliable, and I have played the mobile version before. But to be honest, I was really touched when I saw this pricing strategy.
For those music games marked "free download", you can only draw cards, songs, and characters when you enter them. You may spend hundreds of dollars to get the song package you want. Do you want to play the full version? Sorry, please krypton.
What is the experience of buying out a single machine? Pay money once and a sense of belonging is established. All 156 songs are unlocked directly. There are no physical limits, no daily check-ins, and no various achievement traps designed to trick you into going online. Practice which song you want to practice, and play whenever you want. This is called gaming and consumption.
What's the most ironic thing? This game has 156 original songs, which is many times better than those in-app purchase audio games with the slogan of "massive music library". Those games break down a song into several difficulty levels for sale, or create limited song packs or linked song packs, which can never be enough.
Let's talk about the difference in experience between stand-alone games and online games. Online audio and video games are always busy with events, ranking the list every week. Missing the tracks in limited-time events may be a permanent regret, forcing you to sign in every day. Playing a game is as tiring as working, it's pure negative energy.
In a stand-alone game like "Lan Kong", all you face is music and rhythm. There is no pressure from other people's rankings, no social pressure, no need to join a guild, and no need to waste rest time for that stupid × ranking. Open the game, choose a song you like, and the world becomes quiet. This is the original pure appearance of the game, now it has become a luxury product😔
The game itself is also worth the price. The interface is cleaner than before, the characters can be read clearly, the details are optimized, and the protagonist's diary is updated with warmth. The core of VOEZ's gameplay is the sliding track. It's easy for beginners to get started, and it can be perfected by advanced players. This design is still playable today. The quality of Rhea's music is unbeatable. The original tracks span a wide range of styles, from electronic to rock to lyrical. The quantity of 156 songs is worth the price.
Let me put it this way, 18 yuan is just the money for a takeaway meal, and what you get in exchange is a stand-alone experience that you can take out and enjoy music at any time, without any commercial routines or social coercion. If this stand-alone game market had more of this kind of attitude, would I fucking scold those junk mobile games every day? Anyway, I jumped on this wave, the game has been ordered, who knows who plays it. Again, let the good stand-alone games survive and let the rubbish online games go away👊
