Chapter 118 This is not a bug, but a mechanism
Chen Dong quickly browsed the comments section under the video and found that many people left screenshots of the shipment and a message in the comments.
"Me, little mouse, it's time to eat again!"
"Mommy found a Bitcoin in the cabinet today!"
"Red items might also spawn inside the bot's box!"
Looking at some people in the comments section who identified themselves as "rat," Chen Dong shook his head helplessly.
According to his plan, Starcard will not take the initiative to create an online version of Escape from Chickenkov, but he cannot stop players from developing their own if they want to.
Let alone the online version, there's always the possibility that skilled players will develop a PvP mode in the Steam Workshop.
Therefore, Chen Dong could only offer a few seconds of silent sympathy for the players who might be attacked by rats in the future.
After turning off the video, Chen Dong reopened the Writer Assistant, but when the typing interface occupied the computer screen, Chen Dong's hand hovered over the keyboard, unable to type a single word for a long time.
He was struggling to decide which game to choose next.
As a AAA title, "Black Myth: Wukong" requires a significant investment of funds, manpower, and time to create stunning visuals and excellent soundtrack. Furthermore, AAA games are characterized by high investment, high quality, and large scale.
Chen Dong chose to make this game with the goal of winning the Best Game of the Year award at next year's TGA Awards.
At the same time, it can also break the international gaming industry's stereotype that China is incapable of producing AAA games.
In addition, Chen Dong also remembered Ren Kang from the Steam platform, who planned to create a Chinese game award.
If this were the first edition of the award, the participation of "Black Myth: Wukong," China's first AAA game, would likely attract significant attention both domestically and internationally.
To be honest, the prestige of an award is secondary to the difficulty of its selection process. What matters more is whether the award attracts attention and whether it can generate buzz for the nominated or winning games.
Chen Dong did not rush to make a choice, but first typed out the current situation of the Star Card and its needs on the computer.
"Currently, Starcard has four games under its umbrella, and there is also a AAA title in development. In order to keep Starcard in the public eye from time to time and prevent its popularity from declining rapidly."
The next game should be one with a relatively low budget and a short development cycle.
With a clear need in mind, Chen Dong immediately eliminated AAA games from his shortlist.
After some searching, Chen Dong set his sights on the couples' market.
"The investment and scale aren't too large, the production cycle isn't too long, and it balances fun and quality—it's the one for us, 'Two People Together'!"
"It's time to give couples in relationships a little more intensity."
Chen Dong wore the smile typical of villains.
The thought that some guys might be disliked by their girlfriends for their gaming skills after the game is released makes Chen Dong want to laugh.
After making his choice, Chen Dong's mind went completely straight, and the subsequent plot developments poured out like a torrent of diarrhea.
While Chen Dong was working hard on his writing, Pianbianjun, who was far away in his rented room in Huadu, posted a video he had edited on his Bilibili account.
This is a new direction he has pioneered, mainly editing live stream clips of expert game streamers to provide guides for ordinary players.
SliceJun plans to attract more diverse fans and raise the account's growth potential by editing game guides and similar videos.
After posting the video, Slice Guy could no longer hold on, slumped down on the soft bed with his head hanging low.
To be honest, making a living online is more tiring than working in a factory.
When I was doing day jobs, I could work up to 12 hours a day and then work one day and rest two days.
After dedicating himself to the internet full-time, he worked 16 hours a day, with rest time compressed to the extreme, excluding meals and bathroom breaks.
The job itself is simple; you just need to watch the streamer's live broadcasts and edit clips of those broadcasts.
However, in order to produce some late-night live stream clips, the clip creator is always forced to stay up very late, and his biological clock has been completely messed up, so he can't get any rest at all.
Even though he made a lot of money from making video clips, he didn't have the time or energy to spend it.
Whenever I have free time, all I think about is sleeping.
Slice-kun, who was sleeping like a log, had no idea that his newly posted video would soon attract a large number of viewers.
This video is not only related to the most popular game at the moment, but also solves a pain point that many players encounter when playing the game, namely that the BOSS is too strong and they can't beat it no matter what.
The video is titled, "[One video teaches you how to easily defeat Zone Zero boss Iqbal!]"
Many Escape from Chickenkov players were immediately interested upon seeing the video title.
After all, although BOSS Ekkun is the first BOSS in the beginner map, defeating BOSS Ekkun is not an easy task, given that most players do not have good equipment, good guns, and good bullets.
The video is a clip of a popular gaming streamer, but judging from the number of viewers in the upper right corner of the room, this streamer has very low popularity.
If it weren't for the captivating title of the video, many viewers would have turned it off the moment they saw the unfamiliar face of the streamer.
Their patience was certainly not in vain.
SliceKing knew what the target audience of this video wanted to see, so he directly edited out the streamer's previous ramblings to whet their appetite and solicit gifts, leaving only his introduction on how to easily defeat BOSS Ikun.
"The streamer didn't know whether this was a bug in the game or a mechanism that the Star Cards were designed to make things easier for new players."
When challenging the BOSS Ekhun, players can control their characters to stay close to the sandbags.
This way, enemy bullets will be blocked by the sandbags, while our bullets will not be blocked and will hit the enemy directly, causing damage!
After saying this long speech, the video screen flickered noticeably, and then the host began the practical demonstration.
Clearly, the host rambled on a lot in the middle.
The streamer's character, Little Chicken, was already standing outside the highway camp, but had not yet attracted the attention of the BOSS, Aikun, inside.
Before challenging Aikun, the streamer specifically showed off the guns, bullets, and bulletproof vest in his backpack, all of which are ordinary equipment that can be found anywhere.
For the average player, trying to kill the boss Aikun with this set of equipment is simply absurd.
However, the streamer smiled confidently, decisively pressed the left mouse button, and fired two shots in the air to attract the attention of the BOSS in the camp.
With a few crowing sounds, BOSS Aikun and his henchmen quickly approached the streamer.
Before they appeared, a series of bullets were fired.
The streamer remained calm and controlled the chick to stick close to the sandbag, using the sandbag to block all the bullets.
And upon seeing the enemy, they decisively opened fire.
To the surprise of the video viewers, the bullets fired by the streamer were not stopped by the sandbags, but instead all landed on Aikun and his underlings, with a series of red numbers appearing above their heads.
