inside the room Rama, Arjun, Shaurya, Priya, and Kashyap we're sitting in front of a huge screen with some drinks and popcorn. Suddenly Karna enters the room with a huge popcorn basket in his hands "Hey did I miss something".
"haha no, sir they are giving their speech look now mr ayur's turn has come," Priya said as Karna take his seat on the sofa.
Inside a large hall, ayur stands in front of people and many cameras were focused on him. He then takes a deep breath and said "Ladies and gentlemen I the CEO of Ravon company thank all of you, who have come here to witness a rise of a game that will create history, Ladies and gentlemen this game is not our dream but our passion it is our hard work that we have produced, the first game in history that...." he then pauses to increase the tension.
"that had reached a whooping 80% reality level, yes the novels that you read about a game where you can feel like you are in some other world, yes, we have created it, ladies and gentlemen THE RAVON COMPANY INTRODUCE, ASHES: THE FIGHT FOR GLORY".
he then point his hands toward the big screen present behind him, and everyone's attention then shifted from him toward the screen.
After a sec the blackout screen lit up with the logo of Ravon company and the others company who have given their contribution then it's again blackout, after a while a deep voice resonated in the entire hall.
"they say do good and you will be sent to heaven do bad and you will be sent to hell".
After this sentence, the screen lit up with a man who was sitting on the throne which was placed on the elephant's back. Only the back of the man can be seen and behind him stands the long row of soldiers wearing different kinds of armor and weapons in front of him one can see the battlefield where many peoples of various races were fighting against his soldiers again a sentence resounds.
"but they forget to say" The man then suddenly stand up and lift the spear beside him and then suddenly he pierced the spear through the neck of an elf who tried to jump on him.
The man then lifts the neck-pierced spear high in the air and then he mutters the words "that, there is no such thing and only death is the truth".
He then throws the spear the throw is so strong that pushed the elephant and many soldiers back the spear then hit another man sitting on an elephant's back completely killing that man and the elephant.
After that, the man pointed his fingers toward the sky as if channeling the god
"So, sent your slaves and I will make them suffer those who go against me I will give them the gift of death, and those who choose to be with me I will give them, the pleasure that they can only dream about. SENT YOUR CHOSEN ONE BECAUSE THIS IS MY WORLD AND I AM THE ABSOLUTE RULER OF IT".
thunder rang in the sky and roars of various dragons and soldiers resound with it and then the screen changed and shifted towards a very beautiful lady sitting on a golden throne and we're directly looking at the people she then points her fingers towards the camera and says "not slaves, but the warriors, O, chosen ones head my call and lend me your hands to save the world of Shima".
And with that, the screen then blackout a few seconds later loud cheers rang in the entire hall and even the chats on their live channel exploded with cheers and shouts.
" Lfucking hell, that was cool" one user commented.
"Haha, wait for me to enter the game and I will kick that person's ass. How dare he call me a slave...although I would become a slave of such a beautiful goddess" another user commented.
"get the hell out of here you weird piece of monkey banana, ..anyway man the trailer looks so good hey guys they have uploaded the guide of classes and equipment price on their official webpage" another user commented.
"I checked it out buddy, man the equipment prices are ridiculous for this level of reality game you need a sleeping pod and not a simple vr set which makes sense because they are giving freedom to players to perform any actions" another user commented.
"yeah, man the normal gaming pod cost 70,000 Indian rupees, and if someone wants to buy it abroad they will have to pay the money according to their country like in America they are selling it for 30,000 dollars this is for fucking rich people" another frustrated user commented.
"sigh, and here we thought that it will be for the middle class, now I have lost all interest in this game" another user commented.
And just like that many comments like this started appearing on the live channel chats as what a game could do when they are not even allowed to purchase it.
The moderators try to delete the comments like that but they were in the majority as not everyone is rich so it's obvious that many people will comment about this price.
The Ravon company so we're not blamed here as everyone knows how costly the machines are so the high prices are reasonable and this high is very reasonable because to provide a game of this level required very high-tech equipment and power so the cost would naturally be higher.
After the trailer launch many news articles like "a game for Rich" started publishing and even many gamers started posting the comments like "Amazing but expensive" and "A product for the rich".
Inside the office, Karna is laughing his ass off as he points at the picture of Ayur who is shaking hands with many celebrities who have attended his events. "look at this moron, selling a gaming pod for 70,000 rupees hahaha, I knew it they don't even stand in the market yet they want to compete with us laughable".
Others though don't like the tone of Karna but they nod their heads in agreement as they to can see the prices are so high it will just become stuff for the rich And also for those who have seen and felt the legendary battle of their characters this game is a disappointment.
"look like after you play, our game then it's no going back to this kind of game" Rama sighed as being a game enthusiast he can feel that now a VR game does not excite him much because he now loves to play and train his new companion dodo, who he had received from Karna.
"Well, it's boring for us, "Priya says as she then looks at her watch to see its ringing signifying the remainder she had put. "sorry guys, it looks like Jiya's feeding time has come so ill take my leave".
"she started to treat her chip character as a real being "Karna whispered to others who weirdly look at him.
"why are you all giving me that kind of look," he asked to which Arjun says "Buddy they are like living beings and how many times do I have to tell you to stop reminding us that they are made up of data? They are now like our family," he says and others nod in his support.
After that, they all leave to do their work, leaving Karna alone who shrugged his shoulders and said "Man, why are they all so emotional about it ".
He then again looks at the screen and sees the ayur and an evil smirk appeared on his face he then says while chewing the popcorn "You dumb, did you think that you and your punny game will be going to defeat me and my game just wait for that day, 1dec and I will be the person laughing there and will be above you all".
As the trailer of Ravon became a wave everyone started talking about it, especially the rich class as they were more than excited because for them it felt like this thing is made especially for them.
Inside the Ravon company, Rahul who is seating on a chair in front of Ayur said
"your game has had hype among the rich but dead among the poor, are you sure your company made the right choice of pricing it this high," He said after gulping down a glass of expensive wine.
"What is expensive, they are cheap that the most cut-off I can do in the cost do you even know how much money it's required to make a single piece of the pod? They cost me 50,000 rupees per pod with the cheap materials and then cover the expenses of paying those fucking egoistic game designers and scientists and then the maintenance and running cost of those machines I am being very generous in pricing it at 70,000 otherwise I would have demanded more" Ayur said in frustrated tone and Rahul can say that he is speaking the truth.
"I can understand that but what if the holo-caster company and that Maya company sell their pod at a cheaper price," Rahul asked as he now get really worried because his votes mainly come from the poor class and the middle-class people so losing that big vote share will be going to cost him more harm than profit.
"you can relax in that matter, it can't be possible I had already talked with the experts in this field and they said that the cheapest pod one can make will cost 30,000 per pod and let me tell you the quality would be so worst that it's chance of explosion while gaming is 70%, so if even holo-caster and maya company would try to sell the pods at that price then it would harm them in the long run so you are safe just prepare for the party," ayur said as after that he stands and started walking out of the office.
