Watching headline after headline on my computer's browser.
Charles shook his head, a little dazed by the two memories, and looked confused: "I've really traveled back in time..."
He had come to a parallel world where technology had exploded.
More peaceful and more advanced.
Technology is developing so fast that even humans can't react to it.
For example, two or three years ago, there were only movies and games that relied on screens to play.
Two or three years later, VR technology will reach maturity.
When watching movies or playing games, you should use VR, because VR is more immersive and has a sense of substitution.
For example, a few months after the appearance of Nokia cell phones, mobile networks iterated directly towards 5G speed.
Then, 5G signals started being transmitted directly and everyone started using 5G cell phones
...
Because technology is developing so fast, many things that should have appeared in this world never did.
Let's let this parallel world gradually evolve into a place where technology is powerful, but culture and entertainment are weak.
Of all the entertainment industries, this one has been affected the most.
This is gaming!
The games industry in this world, following the pace of technological development, has completely skipped consoles, computers, cell phones... and has come straight into the VR era!
And this has led to two very serious consequences.
First: The games of this world have only technology and no content!
Although the VR technology in this world is mature, the game has a strong sense of immersion, the graphics are realistic and the engine is extremely perfect, allowing players a gaming experience that is no less than reality.
But the content of these games is so simple!
At first, it was like Candy Crush, with extremely poor gameplay and scalability, but it was still a hundred flowers blooming.
Later, however, after a company called Tencent released a game called Assasination Simulator, VR games in this world fell into a strange circle of various simulators!
Volleyball simulator, car simulator, skydiving simulator, assassin simulator, sniper simulator...
It's completely stuck in a strange circle, it doesn't feel like a normal game at all!
Secondly: All the games in this world are chargeable!
There are only VR games in this world.
If you want to play VR games, you need to have a game booth or go to a VR internet café.
But the cheaper of these two items costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to obtain.
And precisely because the technical requirements of VR games are too high and require huge investments, each VR game must be bought as a stand-alone game or loaded as a card.
Even more unscrupulously, they even charge for both models, points cards and the stand-alone game.
So, in this world, games are something only the rich can enjoy.
'To play, the starting price is hundreds of thousands... It's simply outrageous! You really don't have the money to play"
Although Charles was surprised, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's so hard for my predecessor to think about it, so he hit the dead end of being a game designer..."
Although VR games are extremely difficult to produce, usually only large companies can complete them.
But there's no shortage of fools in this world who have dreams and continue down this path.
And Charles' predecessor was an idiot!
Because of my passion for games since I was a child, I started making games myself when I was in college. I successfully used my charisma to attract investment and founded a company.
Although the first game wasn't a huge success, it was still a small profit.
So the predecessor expanded and a large investment was raised, with the intention of making a game that would shock the world.
In the end, he failed as expected and failed completely. The goal was too big and it was impossible for him to do it with his skill.
Together with the break in the capital chain, the company is in crisis.
And in these circumstances, the friend who started the business together with the predecessor ruthlessly chose to betray.
Taking the idea of the new game, they joined JaguarByte and got a good position and salary, so they could sit back and relax.
The predecessor died of grief and anger when the company went bankrupt, he was left with a huge sum of debt and the core creativity of the game tragically leaked out.
Charles..."
"Why worry... Nothing is more important than living... I only owe a thousand... ten thousand...??"
"What the hell? I owe ten million? How long is it going to take to pay that shit off?"
Charles looked at his pale face in the mirror next to him. For a moment, he felt like it was hard to breathe, his organs were "failing", his heart was pounding and he was aging prematurely!
I had just been reborn, but I wanted to die
What should I do?
...
...
...
In the end, Charles still didn't choose to give up this hard-won new life.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary university student. He had to pass away in his early teens due to illness.
His only wish before he died was to play.
So for the last two years, he spent almost all his time playing various games.
"Maybe this is the real reason why I traveled back in time and became a game designer!"
"Let's analyze my current situation first!"
"The company went bankrupt and has a huge debt of 10 million..."
'You only have... five hundred thousand reais left? Damn, you're very rich, but compared to your debt... it's still a drop in the ocean!"
"So the only capital I have left is this office building that will expire in half a year... and the 500,000 reais I have on me. This amount of money.... is definitely not enough to make games... it's not enough."
"If I can make games... with the level of games in this world, no matter what I do, I can definitely crush them. After all, the two blue oceans of computer games and mobile games have yet to be explored."
"And all the games in this world are paid for. If I just throw away a free game, won't that be a fatal blow?"
"It's a shame... I can't..."
After some thought, Charles finally came to a decision:" There's no other way... It looks like the only option is to die..."
"Ding... it has been detected that the host's industry is the gaming industry, and the most powerful gaming system has been activated!
"This system will help the host create games that will become popular all over the world and reach the pinnacle of life!"
"Ding the gift package for newbies has been opened! It is stored in the system space and the host can open it by himself."
