Chapter 6: The Most Absurd Thing on the Plains, Where's the Website for This Broken Game?

"If any game developer in this generation still had a shred of dignity, I wouldn't have to keep delaying updates..."

Game blogger Tonghao Mama put down his mouse, sat numbly in his chair, and weakly complained.

Burning the midnight oil to test games isn't scary.

What's scary is burning out your liver and gaining nothing in return.

He stayed up all night testing over a dozen newly released games, yet not a single one allowed him to last more than an hour.

Let alone any new game that could make his eyes light up.

At this moment.

While cursing the game developers, this game blogger couldn't help but begin to deeply worry about his own future.

If this continues, his show "Weekly Xiancao Game Report" will likely be dead and buried very soon.

The audience isn't stupid; who would want to watch introductions to a bunch of terrible games?

Thump!

Thump!

Thump...

Just as Tonghao felt restless and his scalp tingled, the door behind him was suddenly knocked on lightly from the outside.

Immediately after, a young woman with short hair walked in slowly.

The visitor was none other than his assistant, Xiao Song.

"What's wrong with you? On your first day working here, I told you: while I'm editing video footage, do not come in to disturb me unless it's an extremely urgent matter!"

After feeling depressed and staying up all night, one's liver fire flares up a bit, and he might not even realize it himself.

Assistant Xiao Song was instantly stunned, and only after a long while did she stammer out a reply: "I-I'm sorry, Boss! There's something I need to report to you!"

Seeing the little assistant's uneasy appearance.

Tonghao Mama's tone softened slightly: "What important matter couldn't wait until I finished editing the footage?"

Assistant Xiao Song steadied herself and spoke:

"Here's the thing, Boss! Yesterday, a game developer sent over a game currently in closed beta. I tried it out and thought it wasn't bad, so I wanted you to take a look; maybe we can use it as footage."

A game currently in closed beta?

Upon hearing these words, Tonghao Mama's face immediately darkened.

To be honest.

If the assistant standing before him right now were a boy, he might have really cursed him out directly and asked if this was his first day on the job.

"You bring me a half-finished game to test?"

Tonghao Mama sighed and asked helplessly:

"Have you fallen in love recently? I'm starting to suspect your brain isn't online; how can you have zero ability to distinguish quality?

If we turn such a half-finished game into video footage, my family tree would ascend to immortality..."

Recently, the reputation of "Weekly Xiancao Game Report" had already plummeted sharply.

If he presented a half-finished game in closed beta to fool the fans, even he would think it wouldn't be excessive to receive a warm greeting regarding his ancestors for eighteen generations.

"Boss, try it out first! This is absolutely a good game; it's Xiancao without a doubt!"

Assistant Xiao Song puffed out her chest, placed the materials on the corner of the desk, and continued: "Boss, I'm going back to sleep now; I stayed up all night and my skin is all oily!"

Hearing this, Tonghao instinctively glanced out the window.

The sky had already brightened.

People jogging in the morning had already appeared in the park in the distance.

At this moment.

Tonghao suddenly realized that his little assistant had stayed up all night with him last night?

That's not right!

Xiao Song had worked overtime before, but she would definitely clock off by ten o'clock at night at the latest.

Yet last night, she stayed up the entire night.

Thinking of this.
