JaguarByte, office building.
Employees are working overtime to prepare for the release of new games.
This game is "Legendary Gate" which has the most popular pre-orders today!
Of course, like other games in this world, it is a complete VR simulation game.
The project leader, Mr. Leonardo, was sitting behind his desk, lazily drinking tea. His new virtual reality game was about to be released.
The commercials and reservations made by the fresh meat I signed are also very good. Now it remains only to wait for the result.
And now.
There was a knock on the office door, and the marketing manager came in with a stack of documents.
He hesitantly asked: "Mr. Leornardo, there is a game from a small company endorsed by Wagner Moura, it is a computer game, should we worry about it?"
"Computer game? What's that? Mr. Liu frowned upon hearing this. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and waved his hand lightly, "what computer game? I've never heard of him. And Wagner Moura. .. it's just a star that once was, this kind of small business dares to go online at the same time as US ... Hehe, he wants to be cannon fodder, we don't have to worry about it, you can leave."
The subordinate dropped the document and turned to leave.
…
July 25.
JaguarByte'S latest VR game "Legendary Gate" was released in the first moment, the number of players reached 10,000 and became popular all over the Internet!
The entry appeared directly in Twitter's top searches.
And at the same time "Legendary Gate" was released.
There is also a small little-known company, the game "Legend" from the "IDL Game Company", which was also released simultaneously at this time!
But compared to the "Legendary Gate".
The game " Legend "looks a little"inconspicuous".
Not only was there no commotion on the Internet, but some marketing accounts in the gaming industry, as well as some famous Internet gaming bloggers who favor niche games, did not even mention it.
Espírito Santo, Vila Velha, Private Baptist School.
In a classroom.
The glare of the setting sun broke through the window and fell on the blackboard, leaving most of it yellow.
The school sign rang and the students below cheered, crowded and ran out of the classroom carrying their backpacks.
Several male colleagues were in groups, talking and laughing as they walked.
"Tomorrow is the weekend, let's play together, brothers. My family has a new set of virtual reality equipment this week and have long wanted to try it out.
"It's not fun to play the previous games. I thought JaguarByte would release a new game called "Legendary Gate" today. How about we play together?"
"Okay, by the way, Enzo, let's play "Legendary Gate" together!"
Enzo was the kid behind it. He wore a washed white denim jacket and a slightly long fringe covering his forehead.
Faced with the students ' questions, he just smiled awkwardly, shook his head slightly, and said, "No, Me... I really don't like to play."
After saying this, he said goodbye to his friends and quickly left.
When he was about to move away, he could vaguely hear the teasing sounds of several classmates behind.
"You idiot, Why Are you asking Enzo? His family has no money and can't even afford virtual reality equipment."
"No way. A VR gaming device costs more than 100,000 reias. What family can't afford more than $ 100,000 now?"
Enzo's head was slightly lowered, and his bangs covered most of his glasses. There was a deep feeling of inferiority and helplessness in his eyes.
The Batista private school is an important School in the city of Vila Velha.
Those who can come to study in this kind of place, even if they are not extremely wealthy, can at least be considered a middle-class and petty-bourgeois family.
But Enzo is different. He came from a rural area and his parents are farmers.
Although in this world a farmer can live a good life, at least he does not worry about food and clothes, and also has a lot of money on weekdays.
But high-quality fun like VR games is never enough!
Enzo felt luxurious just thinking about buying virtual reality equipment just to play.
Go back to the rented house and put away your backpack.
Sitting at the table, Enzo looked at the somewhat worn computer in front of him and sighed slightly.
At his age, why doesn't he like to play?
But now all games must be equipped with VR equipment. Without VR, no game can be played.
It would be great if I could replace my computer with a VR device. Then I could play "Legendary Gate" without being teased by my peers.
Enzo shook his head and threw these unrealistic fantasies back.
He turned on the computer and prepared to watch a movie or two to pass the time as usual before going to rest.
Weekends, for other students, are a happy time when they can play all night.
But for Enzo, it was lonely and gloomy.
Turn on the computer, browse the web and look for good movies.
"Uh-huh!"
Suddenly, an ad pop-up window appeared.
"The world's first computer game "Legend" has been released! Introducing a new version of game you've never played before! All equipment depends on the game, negotiation does not matter, we are brothers, come to "Legend"!"
The person in the video is none other than Wagner Moura, who wears a colorful and strange-looking armor.
He carried an exaggeratedly large sword to slay dragons and read his lines with a Spanish accent.
Enzo couldn't help but smile when he saw this announcement.
He likes to watch old movies and knows Wagner Moura very well. He is a real acting school, and Enzo is also very fond of him.
That's it... now that he started accepting such funny ads.
Just when Enzo smiled and was about to turn off the ad.
Suddenly, he frowned slightly, remembering the advertisement just now, and then suddenly concentrated and looked more closely at the advertisement.
I saw a line of big words written at the top of the ad.
"The game" Legend " does not require VR equipment, you only need a computer to play!"
"The world's first computer online game, you can play it for 250 hours for 100 reais with a monthly fee!"
"You will receive half an hour of free trial when you log in for the first time!"
Enzo's eyes widened and his breathing began to quicken!
Online computer games?
Games that can also be played on computers!
In addition, just for the monthly fee, which costs 100 reais, you can play for 250 hours, which is equivalent to 40 cents per hour!
This is much cheaper than going to a VR gaming lan house!
Most importantly, your allowance is fully affordable, even more than enough!
This is something Enzo never dared to think of before!
You know, the charge for playing in a VR gaming lan house reaches 80 or even 100 per hour!
Enzo swallowed hard, quickly moved the mouse and clicked on the ad page!
Enter the official website!
I carefully analyzed the introduction of the game on the official website and the history of the game.
"Game background: there used to be all kinds of creatures living on this mysterious continent of Marfa.
Human power is so weak among them that they are forced to establish various organizations on this continent in order to resist those beasts and monsters with supernatural abilities..."
"Game introduction: this game has four professions: Warrior, Magician, Taoist priest and Assassin. All plots, experience points, various hunts, mining and other activities take place in real time on the computer network.
The world of the game "Lengend" includes such concepts as day, night, trade and items. Players can get currency through mining, hunting, etc., and use currency for trade. "
The more he looked back, the faster his heart beat and his eyes became brighter and brighter!
So wonderful!
This game is even more exciting than all the virtual reality games I've heard from my colleagues before!
Such a great worldview, such a wonderful backstory and such rich and diverse game elements!
This is the real game!
Enzo did not hesitate, immediately clicked to download and at the same time bought a point card with his allowance!
As for the half-hour experience, in his opinion, it was simply not enough!
While waiting for the game to download, he ordered something to eat and browsed the forum on the official website.
At this time, although the number of posts on the forum of the official website is not large, they are all positive!
"Damn, this game is amazing!"
"I thought it was a lie, but I didn't expect to be able to play on the computer! Damn, it's really amazing!"
"I never thought I could play a game like this on a computer!"
"This game is simply amazing! In my opinion, all VR games cannot be compared to this one. I would like to call it a masterpiece!"
…
Enzo looked at these comments with a smile. The more I read, the more I waited, and the more I watched, the more I wanted to play.
And only then.
"Ding!"
A clear warning sounded in the background.
The game has been downloaded!
