Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch - Chapter 480 - Chapter 480: Chapter 463: Everyone, roll it up!

Chapter 480: Chapter 463: Everyone, roll it up!

[Player’s Public Vote] The waves caused by the Internet are not to be mentioned first, but the first impact on the player’s circle is the magical joy.

It’s all because of the content of the vote:

[Vote 1: Animal Feces Smell Modification]

[First, completely delete the smell of animal feces]

[Second, reduce the odor of animal feces]

If this option is chosen, a sub-vote will appear, allowing players to make their own choices between reducing by [10%], [20%], [30%]…all the way to [90%].

Of course, this sub-vote will be counted in option [Two].

[Three, replace the smell of animal feces]

There are also sub-votes under this option.

Players can choose [Fruit Flavor], [Grilled Meat Flavor], [Garlic Flavor], [Durian Flavor], [Snail Rice Noodle Flavor], or [Other].

[Four, keep the current smell of animal feces and don’t change.]

[Five, double the smell!]

Option [Three] and Option [Five] were added after Lincoln read Samuel’s submitted plan and gave a little thought.

The starting point is still the same: fully respecting the diverse needs of the players.

How is it said?

You are not a fish, so how do you know the joy of a fish?

How do you know that players don’t need this if you are not a player?

As a result, these options have received a great deal of ridicule.

And…

The number of votes for option [Five, double the smell!] soared!

Many serious gamers and anchors are simply howling in despair:

“NO! NO! NO”

“Don’t mess around, brothers! Cloud Dream will really change it!”

“Wake up, friends! Don’t be evil for Lincoln!”

“This is clearly a trap set by Lincoln! Don’t vote anymore! Please!!”

“If it gets any stinkier, it’s going – to – not – be playable!”

Yelang, in the live broadcast, hesitated for a while and voted for [Four, keep the current smell].

Fun-loving people in the comments were surprised:

“What’s going on? Weren’t you just deeply detesting it?”

“Really? You fell in love with the smell so quickly?”

Are you such a hypocritical man?”

Yelang shook his head and said, “No, no, I just think that I’ve been smelling it for a few hours, and if the game is released and you guys don’t have to smell it, I won’t be balanced in my heart!”

“Aren’t we all brothers, shouldn’t we share the blessings, hardships, and smell the shit together?”

Instantly, the teasing jokes in the live broadcast room paused, and a bunch of new comments emerged: “???””Evil!””Be a human!”

Many people finally realized: they couldn’t participate in this vote, but it didn’t mean they could stay out of it.

–The result of this vote directly affects their game experience after the game is launched!

Now everyone couldn’t sit still! They started to urge each other in large numbers in various live broadcasts, gaming forums, and social networks to be rational and to vote for [One] or [Two] and not to just be fun-loving people.

However, sadly, it has long been proven that shouting across the mountain is very ineffective.

Other than the fun-loving people, the most chosen people were actually [Four, keep unchanged].

Even the relatively reliable Super Tomato in many people’s eyes voted for this option.

Facing a bunch of question marks in the live broadcast room, Super Tomato calmly explained, “I can now roughly judge the type and age of feces based on its appearance and dryness.”

The comments exploded instantly:

“Let me translate for everyone: I don’t need to smell the shit anymore, so it doesn’t matter if it changes or not.”

“Wrong, a more accurate translation is: This shit smells unique, my brothers must smell it too!”

“The world is declining, morals are dying, and ethics are sinking!”

“It’s over! It’s all fucking over!”

“Give up illusions and get ready to smell shit, friends!”

A large number of players who could not participate in the closed beta spent a fairly pessimistic day watching the changes in voting data.

In comparison, the[url=http://t.cn/zWxA5qp]Limit Open Pay to Win[/url] vote, although it sparked considerable discussion, was not comparable to the previous one.

Players who agreed to open pay-to-win options overwhelmingly outnumbered those who disagreed.

The discussion among players revolved around the point of “why not open up shotgun purchases.”

As for fully opening cash-to-virtual-currency exchange, it wasn’t added from the beginning.

In the afternoon, something important happened.

Flying Fox released the last trailer for “The Last Moment” before its launch.

Surprisingly, they directly used the phrase “Flying Fox’s last VR game” in their promotional slogan.

Players expressed shock, but also understanding.

In the players’ view, VR games are already on the decline, destined to be phased out. NetDragon, Flying Fox, and Wild Island are all struggling, and it wouldn’t be too shocking if they suddenly died.

What many people were most worried about before was Flying Fox suddenly collapsing, leading to “The Last Moment” being stillborn and never seeing the light of day.

Now, the number of players still waiting for this game to come out has greatly diminished.

If Flying Fox delays the game again, then there might not be anyone waiting anymore — aren’t Cloud Dream’s virtual reality games appealing?

However, as one of the once-giant companies, Flying Fox’s last VR game before its “spectacular collapse” still has a strong sentimental pull, no less than the nostalgic effect of the previous Blaze 3 DLC.

After all, back then, NetDragon didn’t say they would never make VR games again.

It was always the players who proactively said goodbye.

But this time, Flying Fox has the first official farewell meaning.

Many people didn’t even watch the trailer and directly left comments in the comment section, saying: “Although I sold my VR equipment, I will still buy this game! Thank you for the happiness you once brought me, goodbye.”

Many people followed suit, saying they would buy the game even if they don’t play it…

As for those in the gaming industry, their feelings were much stronger than the players’.

Not only was there the huge shock of the giant’s collapse, but also the unavoidable sadness of a rabbit dying and the fox mourning.

During this time, everyone had noticed the colleagues who had left the three giants and re-entered the industry.

Facing the overwhelming pressure of virtual reality games, the three giants were the first to bear the brunt, while the PC and console games under them faced smaller impacts.

But even so, a lot of people left the company and looked for other opportunities.

Among them, the top talents who had no serious “wrongdoings” were basically taken by Cloud Dream.

The remaining people gradually lost contact after they completely left the industry.

However, looking at these changes, Lance, the boss of Flying Fox, was enjoying himself in his bitterness, even laughing at the comments section—

“What the hell! It’s indeed our last VR game, but we never said Flying Fox would quit the gaming world!”

“The team has been streamlined, and we still have enough cash flow for a long time. The new project was also successfully launched, so we will have a long future ahead!”

Flying Fox’s new project is a game temporarily code-named “Project X”.

A game that no longer pursues hardware and performance but focuses on player social interaction. It’s also a PC and console cross-platform online game!

Next, PC and console game developers will face a dimension-reducing attack from the former giant, Flying Fox!

Everyone, get ready to roll up your sleeves!

On the other side, Lincoln paused his work, greeted Randall, and left with Mavis to return to the small sofa on the Spaceship.

He was quite interested in checking out the trailer for “The Last Moment”.

Before this, Flying Fox had kept things tightly under wraps. The promotional materials released were all things like guns, battlefields, soundtracks, character designs, and combat clips.

Players had always been somewhat in the dark.

But Flying Fox has always loved pushing hardware to the limit. The graphics, details, and performance of their games are all very powerful, so even if players were in the dark, their anticipation was through the roof.

By the way, the biggest difference between NetDragon, Flying Fox, and Wild Island is that Flying Fox is almost insane in its pursuit of extreme performance and game details, digging the potential of hardware to the limit every time.

However, in comparison, the game’s storyline and gameplay are a bit unpredictable, and no one can tell if their latest game is a blessing or a curse.

On the other hand, Wild Island explores more possibilities for VR games, always leading the industry. Wild Island’s games often bring a sense of novelty to players.

Finally, NetDragon follows a middle path: there’s nothing extremely outstanding in any aspect, but there are no obvious weaknesses either. It is the “well-rounded” type, with steady performance and continuous output, eventually securing their position at the forefront of the industry.

Mavis picked up a glass of milk, squeezed into Lincoln’s side, and watched the trailer with him.

[2015]

[Mancijia Country·Three Treasures Mountain]

[15 days until the signing of the ceasefire agreement.]

“Huh?”

It only took one second for Lincoln to be stunned by the trailer.

“2015? The year of the ceasefire?” Lincoln said uncertainly, “A game about the ceasefire?”

Then, a sunburned face appeared on the screen. Even with dust and sunburn all over his face, his deep eyes couldn’t be hidden.

A voice came from off-screen: “When will this ever end?”

Without seeing any substantial content, just a time point, a shot, and a line, Lincoln suddenly had a strong intuition:

Flying Fox, who often has ups and downs, might make their last farewell work—

Divine!
