Why aren’t you showing some support? If this collaboration performs too poorly, who will come looking for Tianba Studio for partnership deals in the future?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba was anxiously worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s rare for a big brand to want to partner with their game for promotions. If the results are really poor, it might be very difficult to have similar collaborations in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To enhance the prestige of this collaboration, Chen Ba specially launched a live stream on Thunderbolt and the Tianba Official Website, showing off the \"Speeding Frenzy\" exciting meals in front of the audience!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sacrifice, doing a food live stream personally, did draw quite some attention. At least gamers watched intently, indicating they’d order some delivery to try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience’s interest in Ba clearly overshadowed the appeal of the fried chicken burgers themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, people were watching Chen Ba as a person, regardless of what he was eating. Golden Arches? Speeding Frenzy special meal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry, not familiar at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many viewers watching Chen Ba’s live stream were longtime players of Tianba Game, and their discussions in the live chat revolved around the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Folks, this is a Golden Arches special live stream, how about talking a bit about fried chicken burgers instead of the game?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba tried to shift the topic, picking up a burger with a determined look: \"Everyone, watch closely, I’m going to perform eating a burger in three bites...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crunch crunch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of lettuce is this? Why does biting into it feel like salted vegetable? Almost choked on the burger, Chen Ba quickly took a sip of water and looked at the live stream chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh yeah, this is what we’re promoting through our partnership with Golden Arches, the ’Speeding Frenzy exciting meal’...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Available at major locations nationwide!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has Magic Animation been released?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accidentally seeing a comment in the chat, Chen Ba immediately lost interest in selling burgers, picking up his phone to search for related information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The comment didn’t deceive him; Tencent had just released the beta sign-up link for its professional-grade AI animation creation software, \"Magic Animation\", mimicking \"Divine Grace Continent\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba clicked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To gain testing access, a reservation is needed, with phone number and identity information filled in for qualification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba closed the live stream and signed up for testing using Lu’s phone and details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Downloaded the software, installed and ran it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it’s a beta test and not officially launched, \"Magic Animation\" is currently in a \"temporary free\" state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meaning it will charge later?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba smiled, unsure of the pricing standard for this software, though seeing it’s targeting \"Divine Grace Continent\" professional version, it likely won’t be cheap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So here’s the question!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can this software live up to its charging standard? Can it reach the level of \"Divine Grace Continent\" professional version?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Full of curiosity, Chen Ba entered the software.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Magic Animation\", though called software, is essentially a game with a lot of backend setting windows and adjustment tools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps to avoid conflict or head-on competition with \"Divine Grace Continent\", the available genre in this software is, surprisingly, urban romance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Click to generate, and the software will automatically create a story background and character for you; move the camera to switch and lock perspectives...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the software’s instructions, Chen Ba quickly learned how to use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The process was akin to \"Divine Grace Continent\", one-click operation, foolproof animation generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preset scripts and dialogues can be input, but after some trials, Chen Ba found it not very useful, as the preset scripts didn’t match the generated scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then give up on preset scripts, choose random generation and let AI freely create!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba set up a rather decent protagonist template: both parents deceased, excellent academic performance, handsome appearance...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then clicked to generate animation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The AI started working, and suddenly the formerly empty main page presented new scenes and characters, and these characters began interacting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This protagonist Chen Ba designed, started freely moving around without any inputs or commands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, not bad at all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chen Ba couldn’t help but admire Tencent; criticisms aside, their foundation is solid, it’s produced rather professionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, speaking of which.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merely letting the character move freely isn’t enough; the critical point is the reasonableness of their actions. If any abnormal or illogical behaviors appear, it wouldn’t be very good.\u003C\u002Fp>",928,"2026-06-06T03:03:37.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","a0bdc53eda1420649ac4527ab43b521cb851bc2fb3524033fa6d0ae2a91e160e","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-249","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-247",479,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-cover.jpg"]
