My Attic Connects To Other Worlds - v2 Chapter 158
It has been more than a month since the release of Imperial Technology’s online game “Interstellar”.
Domestic sales are about 280,000 copies.
To be honest, this number has made Wang Huan and Empire Technology very satisfied.
These 280,000 players are playing under the pressure of huge public opinion, because in the current environment, people who play Empire Technology games may be criticized as traitors.
Among these 280,000 copies, there may be tens of thousands of copies, not real players, but schools.
This is weird.
It’s just that the movie may appear as a school bookstore, but the game is even underwritten by the school?
Is it a forced apportionment?
It’s really not. This is because the professor of the astronomy department of a top university is also a game fan of Imperial Technology. He bought and downloaded “Interstellar” in the first time.
Then he was shocked.
For several days, he didn’t really play games, but explored on various planets.
It’s really mesmerizing.
Especially a few planets in the solar system, they have done too well and are too realistic.
Of course, this is just a game after all, and it is impossible to completely restore the landscape of the entire planet.
But it was already amazing enough.
First of all, when looking down from the sky, when flying at high altitude, the appearance of several planets in the solar system has been incomparably in line with all the existing data.
Geographical features, weather features, etc. of several planets.
And when you land on a certain planet, it will also give you a very detailed and complete map.
This map has mountains, rivers, etc.
It is also automatically generated by AI, but it is very consistent with the data characteristics of these planets.
As a result, this game caused an unprecedented sensation in the small circle of the astronomy department.
One pass ten, ten pass a hundred.
Almost the entire astronomy circle has downloaded this game.
Then I forgot to sleep and eat, and I indulged in it almost all day long.
God knows how hungry these astronomy lovers are.
Now in 2012, the British BBC documentary about the solar system “The Miracle of the Solar System” has been released.
Countless astronomy enthusiasts regarded it as a masterpiece and watched it over and over again.
At first I was very satisfied, but gradually became very dissatisfied.
Not high-definition, not detailed enough, and related materials are still not enough.
Of course, in 2019, it will still be the “Planets” produced by the BBC, and then there will be ultra-high definition. The production pictures of the various planets in it will be much more detailed.
And there are already a lot of CG inside, and there are several simulation images of the planet’s surface, which are no less than movie images.
But it’s really far from enough.
After all, it’s just a documentary, and you can only watch videos.
But now this game “Interstellar”, you can really explore it.
And it’s Ultra HD.
Almost hundreds of astronomers are looking for faults in the game.
Of course, this is a very friendly provocation.
This process has caused a huge controversy.
An astronomer found an error in the game and discussed it in a small circle.
After fierce debate, finally came to a conclusion.
They are wrong, they are right in the “Interstellar” game.
again and again.
In the end, all astronomers were conquered.
Of course it is correct, because three hundred years later, several planets in the solar system have already been thoroughly studied.
Countless pictures, countless videos.
There is even a trip to Mars.
Of course, many of them are confidential. Therefore, Imperial Technology chooses to play games, and many important data and important models are not disclosed.
But it was enough to shock all astronomers.
Astronomers and astronomy enthusiasts all over the world have one copy.
Immediately afterwards, all astronomy departments in universities around the world have to buy this game, and all students have a copy.
After this group of people bought the game, they didn’t enter the plot, they just explored obsessively.
Moreover, basically all the time and energy in the early stage was put on the planets of the solar system.
Many middle schools and even elementary schools around the world are teaching astronomy.
They also directly quote the game screens of “Interstellar”.
Obviously it was a game, and it became a textbook.
This makes people resound in another world.
After Notre Dame de Paris was burned, Ubisoft said that we are willing to provide detailed data for the restoration of Notre Dame de Paris.
Because in the game of “Assassin’s Creed Revolution”, Notre Dame de Paris is completely reproduced.
Ubisoft’s games are hard to say, especially the Assassin’s Creed series, formulaic, repetitive, and the plot has no soul, etc., and others are constantly complaining.
However, in landscape and architecture, Ubisoft games are textbook-level.
France in the Great Revolution, Greece in the Odyssey, and the game scenery inside can all be dedicated to sightseeing.
Of course, Imperial Technology’s “StarCraft” is much better.
Because it restored the solar system.
As for the Milky Way, we don’t have any information, and we don’t know what it looks like. It’s just speculation.
Therefore, I don’t know if the description in “Interstellar” is right or wrong.
But… super shocking.
Super stunning.
Because in this game, there will even be a black hole scene.
Of course, that requires civilization to develop to a high level before we can explore black holes.
Domestic players, except for astronomers.
Next, there are game enthusiasts, as well as fans of the “Doomsday” game.
After these people bought the game, they were also shocked.
After sightseeing for several days, a small group of people left because they were really not interested in the content of the game.
But most people insisted on completing the plot of the stand-alone part.
Then, they also understood why they should sell the 299 game body.
Because even as a stand-alone game, it is very shocking and amazing.
And the stand-alone part is just for you to understand the story background of this game and related technology.
Only after you are familiar with the background and settings can you really enter the part of online games.
And just the stand-alone plot, it also has a full 50 or 60 hours of process.
Therefore, even if it sells 299 as a stand-alone game, it is already very conscientious.
After playing the single player, after entering the online game part.
Many players can’t hold it anymore, and they retreat.
Because… it’s too difficult.
The data is too hard core.
Especially to develop the interstellar fleet, you really need to colonize the planets and mine resources.
Moreover, the relevant colonies really need to deploy strong defenses and create a large number of robots.
There are also drawings of various battleships and the construction of the interstellar arsenal.
It’s so unfriendly.
And it’s not friendly enough to Lone Rangers, because it’s really difficult to develop a powerful fleet on your own.
In short, it is difficult.
The threshold is very high.
Some game enthusiasts have worked very, very hard, but… it’s still difficult.
In the end, I have to give up.
But those who really like this game are completely mesmerized.
I can’t believe that there is such a game that can be so like-minded.
A group of highly educated talents, or low-educated, but enthusiastic sci-fi enthusiasts, enthusiastic astronomy enthusiasts.
I groped obsessively in the game.
First the lone ranger, then a few friends together, and finally the whole circle together.
Alliance.
Build power.
Colonies, city states, kingdoms, empires…
As long as the strength is strong enough, everything is fine.
Run for president in the game, or become king or emperor.
Of course……
This is very much later.
At the beginning of the game, it was destined to be a chaos.
But soon many people will find that war is not a very good choice in the game, and it is even a very cost-effective choice.
Alliance, trade is the better choice.
At the beginning of this game, many people were very interested and wanted to fight a national war.
Chinese players and American players are about to break out of an interstellar war.
Later, most of them found out thinking too much.
Because it is very, very far away.
You can’t even find out which planets the American players are in. Even if you know it, your fleet won’t get anywhere.
Unless the technology tree develops to a certain level, you can find your enemy and lock your enemy.
In order to carry out a real interstellar expedition.
In the beginning, everyone should pecking each other.
………………
“The game “Interstellar” is so awesome, should we take the initiative to promote it and bring more people in to play?”
“Don’t…, don’t. Other games are players picking the game, and “StarCraft” is entirely a game picking players, with insufficient ability and insufficient knowledge. It is also a crime to come in and play.”
“Yes, yes, yes, if there are a large number of kings in the “interstellar” game, and you encounter power names such as love in the corner, it would be too embarrassing.”
Gradually, the players of the “Interstellar” game formed a closed circle.
This circle is full of superiority, as if standing at the top of the pyramid of the game.
Speaking of other online games, a smile appeared on his face.
How to describe this posture? I want to despise you, but my integrity does not allow me to do so.
And this circle has gradually developed from games to reality.
Three months later!
“StarCraft” sold 390,000 copies in China, but only one hundred thousand people were recharged on a monthly basis.
At present, these 100,000 people are the **** players of “StarCraft” in China.
And this game caused a sensation abroad, even far more than “Doomsday”.
The world’s major game media once again scored a neat full score.
Last time I scored full marks, the major game editors were full of initiative.
But this time, it was totally trembling to score full marks.
Because, about the universe and astronomy, most game editors don’t understand.
But lethal astronomers all over the world are saying that “this” game restores the solar system to a terrifying level.
It was even taken as an electronic textbook by the astronomy departments of many top universities around the world.
There are actually quite a few game editors, and some of them can’t play, especially when it comes to online games.
Quite a lot of people can’t hold on anymore.
But… Everyone feels that it is not that the game is not good enough, but that I am not capable.
I don’t understand, and I dare not ask.
Get full marks with your eyes closed.
Domestic players are also cautiously forming their own small circles, carefully showing their sense of superiority.
In foreign players, that is completely naked.
The core players of “StarCraft” have unabashedly listed the contempt chain.
Especially in the top universities of science and technology, if you don’t play “Interstellar”, then you are not behind, but ignorant.
This feeling is like in “The Big Bang Theory”, Sheldon seized the opportunity to mock Howard is not a doctor.
Even after Howard became an astronaut, he still had to be ridiculed by Sheldon.
Every time at a party, this group of learning tyrants talked about other online games, that kind of disdain, that kind of contempt.
Give a contemptuous face of classmate Shelton.
A few months after “Interstellar” was released, global sales finally reached 20 million points.
This data also completely frightened Wang Huan and Imperial Technology.
How could it be so high?
This is a very high barrier game, this is a very unfriendly game.
Even the stand-alone part, although it is very exciting, is not very friendly.
Belongs to an absolute niche game.
How could there be such a high sales volume, this sales figure can be among the top few in the world.
Later, related reports came out.
Part of the reason why sales are so high is because of the fan effect of “Doom”.
Countless fans of the “Doomsday” game, after playing this game, are extremely enthusiastic, extremely obsessed, and then enter the hunger and thirst.
Because on the market, there is no longer a game that will satisfy them.
Although the dream engine of Imperial Technology is used, it will take at least one or two years for the new game to be launched.
The picture of the “Doom” game is so realistic and shocking, and playing other games is completely dull and unsightly.
At this time, “Interstellar” appeared, also of Imperial Technology, and had a more shocking picture.
Coupled with the global game media, it is almost frantically touted.
Even higher than the praise of “The Last Days”, it is an absolute masterpiece.
As a result, countless players have entered the pit.
But… this game is too niche after all.
After many players buy it, they are really sightseeing in the solar system.
Many players have forcibly completed the content of the stand-alone part, and it feels like they have been taught a hundred math and physics classes.
When it comes to the part of online games, I can’t hold it anymore.
In the end, the number of stable monthly subscription users was only more than two million.
Among these monthly subscription users, there are many players who are sightseeing.
Some are casual, and there are many such players. They develop civilization and do not build interstellar arsenal, let alone build interstellar fleets.
After discovering a planet, they started farming.
Just build a house in it, the city, and a garden.
He didn’t deal with people, and abruptly turned the “Interstellar” online game into a playhouse.
Moreover, there are too many planets in it.
Even if a planet is discovered and the player desperately covers it, it can only occupy a very small area.
Then……
Inexplicably, there are more monthly subscription users.
A large number of casual players poured in to build a city in the game.
And for the safety of their city, they chose to take their city offline, that is, only store it on their computer.
Then, a few friends will be invited to go sightseeing with each other.
And most of these casual players are girls.
Faced with this situation, Imperial Technology was a bit dazed.
This this……
“Obviously” is a magnificent interstellar war game, you played “Minecraft” abruptly.
What’s even more bizarre is that such casual players and players who develop interstellar civilization do not interfere with each other, as if they are not in the same game.
Because casual players take their cities offline and basically join the universe trade.
Well, they can’t join the cosmic trade, because their civilization level is too low, and they don’t even have the qualifications to join the cosmic trade.
Then, Imperial Technology saw the global monthly subscription users rise from 2 million to 3 million, to 4 million, 5 million?
The number of casual players began to surpass **** players.
Those **** players are very sad and feel that their superiority has been taken away by a group of casual players who don’t know anything.
You…just you…
Such a stupid and sweet girl, even came to play such a **** “Interstellar”, you are afraid that you don’t even know the acceleration of gravity, right?
Is it true that the grand occasion of “Animal Crossing Friends”, where the fierce man picks up branches, will be staged several years in advance?
Then Imperial Technology also looked dumbfounded and found that after the game “Interstellar” was sold for US$2 billion, the monthly subscription fee also exceeded US$200 million.
A monthly subscription abroad is $50 per month.
You just spend 50 dollars and play “Minecraft” in it?
……………………
“Wang Huan, how many domestic players are there in Interstellar? I’m talking about **** players?” Han Qiu asked.
She was also enthusiastic about building houses and gardens in the game.
“Just barely one hundred thousand.” Wang Huan said.
Han Qiu said: “What about America?”
Wang Huan said, “Five hundred thousand.”
Han Qiu said: “The gap is so big?”
Wang Huan said: “Yes.”
Han Qiu said: “Then when a national war breaks out in the future, won’t our China suffer a lot?”
That is inevitable, and this is not even shifted by the will of Imperial Technology.
Although in the game, the players of China and the United States are still far apart.
But one day, the colony planets of both sides will collide.
In the future, an interstellar war will definitely break out.
Wang Huan has read relevant data, and the overall strength of American players is much stronger.
In the future interstellar war, Chinese players will suffer a lot.
“What should I do?” Han Qiu said, “Will you change the data in the background so that Chinese players can win?”
Wang Huan said: “It’s impossible, just to make them feel the real interstellar war.”
Han Qiu said: “Well, if this goes on, Chinese players will never win.”
Wang Huan said: “In the future, the situation may change.”
Han Qiu said: “Change your fart, Chinese players are opening treasure boxes in garbage online games. They are all scolding “Interstellar” garbage games for making money online, and calling you hard to die.”
Then, she was a little worried and said: “Your company will have no problems lately, right? It’s been spreading that your company will be punished and the “Doomsday” game will be completely taken off the shelves.”
………………
Recently, Imperial Technology has indeed encountered relatively big disturbances and troubles.
First of all, the blacklist matter.
Put millions of people on the blacklist and make them public.
Many leaders are uncomfortable.
In a very high-level meeting, a certain high-level leader criticized Imperial Technology by name.
When it comes to blacklisting, it is completely creating opposition and creating social contradictions.
So the relevant departments directly ordered Imperial Technology to cancel the blacklist.
Implementation within a limited time.
Then, the “Doomsday” game triggered a **** incident.
A student in the first grade of junior high school fought with someone in a black Internet cafe and cut someone with a knife.
In this group fight, three died and five were injured.
Therefore, it caused a huge wave.
In an interview on a TV show, the murderer’s mother said that the child’s father played the game “Doomsday” every day.
This game is extremely **** and extremely violent.
The child is watching his father playing games every day, so he becomes so cruel.
Next, on the TV screen, a large number of images in the “Doomsday” game appeared.
After all, this is the end of the world. The world environment is very bad, and of course it is full of violent conflicts.
Of course the picture will be bloody.
Many TV stations and even newspapers list these violent and **** images separately.
In an instant, it stimulated countless parents.
Countless people in society.
Suddenly, countless people shouted and screamed.
Many experts, professors, and many people have written to relevant departments requesting that this game be banned.
However, in fact, after relevant investigations.
Those children were playing a certain free online game in a black Internet cafe, and they were exploded in the game, causing hatred, and then quarreling in reality.
The battle shifted from online to offline.
This led to the tragedy.
Although afterwards, some media reported the truth.
But it is no longer useful. The first version circulated was because the child watched his father play the “Doomsday” game, and the pictures in it were too bloody, that led him to use a knife to kill people.
For a time.
Public opinion is surging.
“Completely block the “Doomsday” game!”
“The “Doomsday” game is a poisonous weed that persecutes the growth of young people.”
“This kind of **** game shouldn’t be listed at all, and the relevant departments should be held accountable.”
“We don’t know, how did this game pass the review? It’s hard to say that there is no right and money trading.”
However……
This game is clearly written in the most prominent place. It is an 18+ game.
Minors are not allowed to play.
Moreover, Imperial Technology bans the sale of this game to teenagers under the age of 18.
But in China, you say that grading is completely useless.
There are only two levels that do not need to be classified in the country. ,
One level, health.
One level, die!
……………………
Imperial Science and Technology has ushered in two working groups, and the officials who lead the teams are not low-level.
Both working groups brought ultimatums.
“Mr. Wang Huan, this blacklist must be cancelled within three days, otherwise we will impose severe punishment on Imperial Technology!”
“Mr. Wang Huan, the game “Doomsday” must be completely deleted. All the violent and **** pictures in it must be deleted, otherwise we will ban this game and impose penalties on Imperial Technology.”
………………
Note: The second one will be sent, there is a monthly pass, please give me a few!
