This player believes that the main reason why there are so many nostalgic clothing studios at present is that Blizzard is not strong enough, because for Blizzard, both studio accounts and player accounts can provide income, so why bother to manage these accounts that can be paid by themselves? So the player suggested that a VIP server could be opened, and the price of the card tripled every month, but the official guaranteed that there could be no studios and scripts in this server.
This player's idea seems to be very good, because in this way, officials don't have to worry about the loss of their income caused by titles, and they can also enhance their reputation among players. For those studios and retail investors who have scripts, the high admission fee will also make it difficult for them to enter this server to conduct business.
In fact, this VIP server model has a precedent in the game industry. For example, a well-known FPS game has a similar concept. Only prepaid members can enter the priority matching bureau. The introduction of face recognition and other means greatly increases the cost of opening and hanging, so as to fight against plug-ins This is actually the VIP server that this player said.
But is this VIP server effective? Don't say other games, just say "World of Warcraft", such a VIP server actually has no practical significance. Because for the studio, their accounts are basically permanent, and they rarely buy extra monthly cards.
The stricter blizzard management, the better the studio's income will actually be. Because no matter what server, there is always a time when players need gold coins. Blizzard hits the studio crazily and increases the cost of the studio. Finally, those players who buy gold will spread the cost to the studio. If the VIP server is really opened, it is estimated that the studio will not die, but will flourish.
And more importantly, such a server may not have a good reputation among players. In fact, most players are still worried about the issue of point cards and monthly cards. Many players want Blizzard to resume card counting, because they think monthly cards are too wasteful. Then if Blizzard opens a more expensive server, I'm afraid it won't be blown up by players.
Generally speaking, this player's idea is very good, but VIP server is difficult to realize in World of Warcraft. Moreover, Blizzard has never given up its attack on studios and scripts. Some time ago, Gallywix, the largest foreign gold coin institution, was blocked. So Blizzard didn't really stop publishing, because the studio also created income for him. Most studios not only don't issue monthly cards, but also smoke? Blizzard? The blood of. It can only be said that World of Warcraft has a long way to go from the studio. Maybe TBC can think of a better way in the future.
