Chapter 15

Listening to Shen Qinghan's words, a strange look appeared on Zhao Ming's face:

"Core?"

"The core of this game is to torture the players."

"Only from the perspective of the Polish Federation can players experience what true despair is."

"Otherwise, no matter which angle you stand from, the Empire or the Federation, it's easy to be censored."

"So I chose the angle of torturing the players."

"However, it's not that we won't open the Empire and other federation factions."

"We have to wait until the Polish Federation's plot ends."

"Then players can choose freely."

Then Zhao Ming explained to Shen Qinghan.

The opening plot of the game indeed lets players play as the Prime Minister of the Polish Federation, controlling the entire country.

But the Empire's army is already approaching, and at this time, the survival of the Polish Federation rests entirely on the player.

At this time, players need to command and mobilize the army and analyze the surrounding situation, not only allowing players to integrate into the game world very quickly but also making players feel that they are equal to the Empire's Führer, the Anglo-French Federation's Prime Minister, and the Soviet Federation's leader.

This heavy sense of responsibility, as well as the Prime Minister's start.

Players who get this script.

Must already be imagining using everything they have learned to command the Polish Federation's army, invincible and conquering everything.

Finally unifying the world.

The corners of Zhao Ming's mouth curled up.

Once the game CG is completely released, players will easily be able to distinguish the two factions.

The Empire and other federations.

The Empire is clearly the invader, while the Anglo-French Federation and the Soviet Federation in the CG are clearly defenders fighting to protect their country.

Therefore.

The idea that other federations are the good guys will be deeply ingrained in the players' minds.

But...

When players find that the Empire's army is advancing rapidly, and they mobilize troops and lay out layers of plans, but still cannot defeat the Empire's artillery fire.

The players playing as the Prime Minister of the Polish Federation look at the federation behind them, thinking of the soldiers who, in those sky-filling flames, fought desperately to defend the country; such soldiers must be able to withstand the Empire's army.

And when players full of expectation send out a request for help~

Hey~

Guess what~

The home is gone~

Reality will give the players a loud slap in the face.

Letting Blue Star players experience what the sinister nature of society is.

You can't be Prime Minister anymore.

Then you enter the second chapter of the plot.

Because of the destruction of the Polish Federation, the protagonist will gain a new identity, and at this time, you can freely choose a faction.

You can choose however you want.

See if you become cannon fodder for the Empire, or cannon fodder for the Anglo-French Federation...

From Prime Minister to cannon fodder.

This gap in identity will definitely gain a lot of emotion value.

Think about it.

One second you were still engaging in offense and defense with the Empire's Führer.

The next second, your home is gone, and you become the lowest-level cannon fodder; by an order from the Empire's Führer, the protagonist controlled by the player is sent to the front line, and an artillery shell falls.

Boom—

The player can restart.

However, unlike the battlefield in "Normandy Landings" where you have one life per game.

Immersive plots can be revived, otherwise, it would be impossible for any player to clear the game.

Every time a player dies, they will change to a new identity.

Simultaneously entering a new life background.

When a player clears the game, the families of all the characters the player has played will become game CGs, appearing before the player one by one.

Watching the character they played die because of their own operational error.

How painful and desperate the character's family is when they receive the death notice.

Bringing an incomparable impact to the player's soul, interrogating the player's inner heart.

After listening to Zhao Ming's explanation.

???

Shen Qinghan was full of question marks.

She couldn't imagine how Zhao Ming could say such cold words with such a wicked smile:

"No way?!"

"Are you even human?!"

Zhao Ming spread his hands, saying indifferently:

"The more people scold, the more popular it will be."

Actually, anti-war and torturing players can only be considered incidental.

The central idea...

Is to mobilize the players' emotion value.

As long as he gets more emotion value, let the players scold him; anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat.

And on Shen Qinghan's side.

Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle.

Immersive plots can be revived, and every time you revive, you change your identity; it seems there is no problem.

But Zhao Ming's final move...

This is putting people on a rack to roast.

Because players can revive, they die recklessly.

And when the news of the character's death reaches home, the scene of the relatives collapsing keeps flashing before the player's eyes.

The heaviness of death will constantly impact and torture the player's inner heart.

The cruelty of war is concretized at this moment.

Who would still look forward to war?

If this doesn't win an award, it would be against the laws of heaven.

Shen Qinghan's eyes were full of admiration; this game is truly good, but the degree of torturing people... is truly ruthless.

No.

I have to hide my information a bit better later.

Otherwise, when netizens scold this guy, they might bring her along... after all, she is the main investor in this game.

The game company boss is like this; in the eyes of netizens, how could she be a good person...

Shen Qinghan looked at Zhao Ming:

"When will the game CG be released?"

"On the day the competition starts?"

The "Anti-War Competition" held jointly by the six federations, because of the difference in time zones, although it starts at the same time, the time zone of each region is different; for example, in the Great Xia Federation, it starts at three in the afternoon.

Zhao Ming touched his chin and said:

"Then let's do it on the day of the competition, at noon; let's see the moves of Emperor Penguin first."

"It's just lunch break."

"There will be many people browsing news, and a game CG, three hours of time."

"Even if the Emperor Penguin Group analyzes something."

"They can't make it."

He has the system's database, plus the continuous harvest of emotion value during this period, and it took him a week to finish the game.

In three hours, even if he were worked to death, he couldn't copy it.

Not to mention that it's just a game CG, they don't know the game content at all.

But from the player's perspective.

This game CG can clearly analyze the factions.

The Empire and the Federation.

So they have an idea for the upcoming game.

Shen Qinghan had no objections and agreed immediately.

Then she took Zhao Ming's virtual helmet, preparing to go home and stay up all night to clear the game.

Zhao Ming was also helpless when he saw this.

Then he opened his phone and ordered the latest model of a virtual somatosensory pod.

If you have money, you have to spend it.

——

Three days later.

Emperor Penguin Group, Game Department.

The time was approaching noon.

The games participating in the competition had been released and gone online one after another since the morning; some were paid, some were free, but the eyes of the Great Xia Federation were all focused on the Emperor Penguin Group and Polar Star Games Company.

Some netizens made a rough count.

In just ten days.

The money spent by both sides just on trending topics, buying trending topics, and suppressing trending topics had already exceeded one hundred million Federation Credits.

It is very rare in the Great Xia Federation for things to reach this level before the competition even starts.

Other games also lost their temper; after all, the promotion fee alone was enough to make ten or a hundred of them, so what could they do?

When gods fight, mortals suffer.

So today, when the competition starts, many netizens and game producers are paying attention to whether Emperor Penguin Group's "Ruined Future: 2100" has any new moves, and what kind of game Polar Star Games' new game "World War II: Rise of the Empire" actually is.

However.

It was already noon, the time with the most traffic.

But there was still no movement from Polar Star Games.

Xu Huan was sweating profusely; in three days, they had indeed made up the plot based on the short CG released by Polar Star Games, but Polar Star Games didn't release the full picture, so he was always uneasy.

Seeing that the time had reached 12:03.

There was still no movement from Polar Star Games, and they had already missed the 12 o'clock hour; Xu Huan gritted his teeth:

"Can't wait any longer."

"Release the DLC."

"Update the installation package."

The others also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began to operate.

A few seconds later.

The update DLC for "Ruined Future: 2100" was pushed to all the computers of players who had downloaded it.

Just one minute later.

Two trending topics rushed into the top three one after another.

#"World War II: Rise of the Empire" Game CG Officially Released!#

#"Ruined Future: 2100" Brand New DLC Update!#

Watching the Polar Star Games game CG trending topic at the top of the list, firmly suppressing the "Ruined Future: 2100" DLC update, Xu Huan's head throbbed:

"Damn!"

"Is there no end to this?!!"

A crappy game CG made it to the top of the list?

Damn it, how much money did they spend?!
