Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 244: Chapter 242: Players: I Don’t Understand!

Translator: 549690339

This Sunday, there were actually many people who qualified.

Camille Victoria and her Avengers Squad, Warehouse Bird’s Folk God Squad, the chat group that used to be called “What’s in the bathroom” and is now called “Mage” second and sixth team, and even a big celebrity with the label “Loves playing games” team…

In just one morning, as many as 1,400 teams successfully qualified.

But after qualifying, Camille Victoria can’t help but envy Shuihua. She howls with envy while asking Shuihua why she didn’t tell her she didn’t have a team.

Camille Victoria’s team was just missing one person and they didn’t want to add a stranger, so they entered the battle in the form of a 9-person team.

The fight was quite thrilling, and they almost got wiped out in the middle circle.

If Shuihua had told her earlier, Camille Victoria would have definitely invited Shuihua to join the team. Wouldn’t that indirectly help her?

Why did it have to be so hard!

Shuihua chatted with Camille Victoria briefly and then went offline. She was busy going to her uncle and aunt’s place to complain.

Although she was no longer angry, she still had to complain!

They were used to tattling on each other when they were young. Lance didn’t hesitate to complain about Shuihua to her parents many times from childhood to adulthood.

It was only in the past two years that Lance stopped complaining, but Shuihua had no intention to give up.

After all, tradition cannot be lost!

As Lincoln said, he really didn’t do any serious work that day.

Except for going out to eat hot pot with Yue Pengju in the evening, he spent the whole day watching the competition, daydreaming, and chatting about this and that with Mavis in the virtual world.

They even watched an absurd comedy film chosen by Mavis.

As for Liang Tian asking him to check out the location of the Experience Store branches…

Lincoln asked Mavis to help check the location, threw it into a city business district, commercial volume and pedestrian flow calculation model, added rent parameters, and after a comprehensive calculation, he chose to delegate again, encouraging Liang Tian to go ahead.

As for himself, he’d check it out after the renovation was done… one less trip is a trip saved.

In the whole day, the only thing that bothered Lincoln was that he saw a hot word on Spiritual Rhinoceros’s hot search-

“Pure Beauty.”

With a curious heart, he clicked in, thinking he would see a beautiful man with clear eyes and a pure smile.

But he saw himself…

And even right in front of Mavis…

Can you understand the feeling of being socially dead?

He simply wanted to directly buy Spiritual Rhinoceros and delete all the related content of this keyword!

Whoever dared discuss it again, ban their account for fifty years!

Unfortunately, this is clearly unrealistic.

There is no point in explaining, as players are just playing along.

‘l’ne only way IS to create a Digger news story, let tne players dlscuss tne new things and cover up this hot topic.

So, on Monday, as soon as he got to work, Lincoln found Cheryl and asked her to cut a cute video of Little Milkshake for him.

For Cheryl, this was a piece of cake.

She had countless video materials of cats and dogs on her hands, especially those of Little Milkshake.

She had the finished product within a few dozen minutes and handed it to Lincoln.

Lincoln didn’t do any further editing and directly posted it on Spiritual Rhinoceros and video websites with a catchy title.

With such a harmonious video, it naturally passed censorship smoothly.

Workers who were goofing off at work, players who were originally paying attention to the competition, and various game media all cast their eyes on it.

The number of fans of Cloud Dream Spiritual Rhinoceros had already exceeded 30 million, and the number of fans on the video website had also exceeded 5 million. Even the medals of 100,000 fans and 1 million fans were sent to the studio by the official.

So, newly published content can easily have a huge impact.

Especially since Lincoln’s title was very catchy: “Cloud Dream’s New Game ‘Fast XX’, Latest Information Disclosure!”

Players flocked in, eagerly starting the video.

The video starts with a close-up of Little Milkshake’s dog head. Every time the camera pulls back, it shakes its head and tries to catch up, with its mouth open, not knowing whether it wants to bite the camera or lick the lens.

“What’s going on? Isn’t this Little Milkshake?” “Is the new game related to the dog?”

“Speedy Dog?”

Instantly a bunch of question marks appeared in the comments section, with familiar audience members explaining: this is the dog raised in Cloud Dream Studio in reality, and its master is Lincoln himself.

Players began to speculate, wondering why the video is starting with a shot of a dog and what will happen later.

However, they soon realized that there is no distinction between “beginning,” “middle,” and “end” in this video.

From start to finish, it’s just the dog being cute!

Now they were a little confused.

“What’s the meaning? Is it a dog-raising game? Or a game where you play as a

“I don’t believe it! Last time they showed us a loom, but the actual game wasn’t a textile game!”

“It’s different though, at least the dialogues in the background music last time gave a lot of information. But this one, from start to finish, it’s just the dog barking!”

“Could it be that the key information is the dog’s lines? Can someone who understands dog language translate please!”

“What about the night club? You can’t just not make it because you were falsely accused, can you?”

“Who knows! After all, Lincoln is a free man!”

“Whether or not to make it isn’t the point; even if they are going to make it, what game combines nightclubs and dogs? I don’t get it! Can any experts explain?

“Expert: I don’t understand either!”

Players were discussing it in confusion but never came to any conclusions. Some even came up with the ridiculous guess of “playing as a dog running a nightclub.”

But Lincoln doesn’t care, nor will he explain.

His original goal was to shift the focus away from the “Pure and Handsome” meme and keep players from using it. Now that goal has been achieved.

With Randall leading the “Assassins’ Alliance” operation team for the competition, Lincoln has already stepped away and joined Fred’s “Speed Chase” group.

After uploading the night scene sensory data package, he begins working on creating detailed levels for “Speed Chase” with his employees.

However, players are no fools. Although they are baffled by the new game’s trailer, they still manage to glean two useful pieces of information.

The first one pertains to the game genre. Although no extra information was gained from the dog video, some guessed that the new game will still be a city gunfight game.

The reasoning is a bit far-fetched:

The first casual game is “Traveler of the Wind,” a flying, exploring, and traveling game.

The second casual game is “Light Encounter,” a sister piece to “Traveler of the Wind.” It is also a flying, exploring, and traveling game.

Following the pattern of casual-heavy-casual-heavy games, the next one should be a heavy game.

Since the first major game “Assassins’ Alliance” is a city gunfight game, the second one should naturally be a city gunfight game as well!

Although players complained about the lack of evidence and that it was too arbitrary, the Cloud Dream staff was at a loss for words.

That’s because the guess is correct! A wrong basis, yet the correct conclusion was reached.

The second thing players gain is related to the new game’s release schedule:

“Two weeks after Cloud Dream released the trailer for ‘Wind Traveler,’ the game officially launched.

Three weeks after the release of the first ‘Assassins’ Alliance’ trailer, the game officially launched.

One week after the release of the ‘Light Encounter’ trailer, the game officially launched.

As we all know, Lincoln actually only took about a week to develop Mirage while working on ‘Traveler of the Wind’!

So, my friends, when Cloud Dream starts releasing trailers, be prepared to welcome a new game!

Because it won’t be more than a month before the final launch!”

When Lincoln saw this theory, he was a bit dumbfounded: Is this window of time enough?

“Assassins’ Alliance” took two months!

He silently showed the ridiculous guess to Fred.

Fred lowered his head to read the content, then looked up at Lincoln, calculating silently in his mind.

And then, with a determined expression, he said to Lincoln, “Boss, as long as you allow overtime, we promise to complete the task!”
