Players have been wondering for many years that there are still many works with good reputation in the popular era of "Chinese Paladin". Why do we only know "Chinese Paladin" many years later?

Take a look at the classic role-playing games that were popular in the DOS era, such as the Legend of Jin Yong Group, the Legend of chivalrous Heroes 3, the Legend of Maple Dance, the Dance of Maple, the Cat and Dog, Jianxiaqingyuan, the Knights of Yan long, and the Legend of the heroines of the three Kingdoms. The picture quality of the game at that time was basically not much different from that of Chinese Paladin 1.

Take a look at the "Biography of Heroes 3" at that time, can this fight picture throw the fairy sword for several blocks?

For players who have experienced that era, these games are rare boutique ah! And it's worth brushing over and over again. Players' dedication to the game in the early years is not something that players can understand today.

In the windows era, more and more boutique games began to appear, such as "Fantasy Sword record of the three Kingdoms", "Biography of Cao Cao of the three Kingdoms", "scar of Heaven", "The Demi-Gods & Semi-Devils", "knot of the whole Spirit", "Legend of Wulin Group", "double arrogance of the New Generation", "Fantasy of the three Kingdoms", "Society of the World", "Qin War", "Legend of Zhao Yun of the three Kingdoms", "Fantasy", "Fantasy World record", "Angel Empire" and "The Legend Of Three Kingdoms". Every game affects a generation.

When we entered the Internet cafe, we could pass the time with a casual game.

So why did the popular RPG games of that year finally disappear? Only those who have experienced it vaguely remember the glory of these games.

That is because Chinese Paladin's road to success cannot be replicated. after all, it is created by the times.

Now let's look back and see if the development teams and game companies that created those classic games have been disbanded. It's almost impossible to play a sequel these days.

This is true of any game, no matter how wonderful it is, no matter how fun it is, as long as there is no sequel, it will be forgotten by the players one day.

The myth of Xianjian to tell you the truth, it is not easy for the "Chinese Paladin" series to come to this day. The contradictions within the company and the change of the development team almost ruined the "Chinese Paladin" series.

But fortunately, in the end, the classic IP continues.

"Chinese Paladin 3", "Chinese Paladin 3 questions" and "Chinese Paladin 4" were built by Shangsoft before its dissolution.

In the later period, "Xianjian 5", "Xianjian 5 prequel", "Xianjian 6" and "Xianjian 7" were all created by Beijing soft Star.

Due to the lack of copyright awareness in the early years, did not form a healthy game ecology, piracy is relatively rampant, leading to the closure of many excellent and thoughtful game companies, which is a great pity for Chinese players!

The companies that developed those classic games either closed down, changed careers, or changed their careers, and not many companies like Daewoo Information have been able to survive for many years.

Look at today's "Xuanyuan Jian" and "Chinese Paladin", just authorized IP has made a lot of money, all kinds of mobile games, all kinds of comics, all kinds of TV series, all kinds of dramas, all kinds of periphery.

In the early years, those players who play piracy have all become potential customers, as long as the affectionate players will not let go of the sequels of "Xuanyuan Jian" and "Xianjian".

Nowadays, games are purchased through formal channels, and as long as the reputation of the game is good, the sales volume is definitely not a problem. Sales of "Chinese Paladin 7" have reached about 800000.

It is estimated that everyone is interested in the sales of the "Chinese Paladin" series. So how many works have been sold in previous dynasties?

"Chinese Paladin 1" sells 800000 yuan, but there are tens of millions of pirated copies.

Sales of "New Chinese Paladin" are 250000.

The sales volume of Chinese Paladin 2 is 300000.

Sales of "Chinese Paladin 3" are 500000.

The sales volume of "Chinese Paladin 3 Love stories" is 350000.

"Chinese Paladin 4" sold 760000 yuan.

"Chinese Paladin 5" sold 1.4 million yuan, and the first live-action dubbing game, coupled with the popularity of Xianjian 3 at that time, led to the popularity of the game.

"Chinese Paladin 5 prequel" sold 1.5 million.

The sales volume of "Chinese Paladin 6" is 770000

Chinese Paladin has given people a "sense of belonging" since it was first released, believing that this is the pinnacle of the RPG game. Therefore, every sequel released in the later period will cause an uproar and become the object sought after by the major magazines. If there were no piracy in the early years, it would be no problem for sales to increase tenfold.

It is a pity that only Xianjian persisted in the RPG game. But at that time, the players of "Xianjian" are too old to chase, and the return system is not suitable for today's new players. So "Xianjian 7" was built into ARPG.

This change is not only a farewell to old players, but also a kind of Nirvana.

I wonder if you still remember "Hantang International", which was called China Blizzard at that time. The products produced by Hantang must be boutique. At that time, the series of Knights of Yan long, the trilogy of the robbery of Heaven and Earth, the Battle of Amadeus, the Legend of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Chronicles of the three Kingdoms, the Water margin and the Wind Youth team once made many friends crazy.

However, it is a pity that the company, which has created numerous classic games, eventually went into decline, and the company announced that it would no longer build any games after the release of the "Atlantis knot".

After that, he began to do marginal work such as outsourcing art. After being acquired by Zhiguan Technology, it was changed to Zhiletang.

Nowadays, with the popularity of mobile games. Once Hantang also created a "heaven and earth robbery" related mobile games, it seems that they also want to rely on feelings in the circle of fans ah! Once those characters we are familiar with gathered together again, the two-dimensional painting style is obviously pleasing the younger generation of players, I do not know whether the players are willing to do this bowl of cold rice!

In fact, many game companies at that time, like Hantang, suddenly disappeared after issuing some super popular works, which made people feel sad. If these games can be remade today, I believe they will still receive attention.

A few years ago, the Legend of the chivalrous Man earned a wave of feelings and popularity.
