YM778.TV Chapter 16
At the moment, Zombie Apocalypse was getting more and more popular. Many streamers wanted to compete in its traffic to increase their number of fans.
However, Zombie Apocalypse wasn’t a game that everyone could easily clear.
Zombie Apocalypse was a game that contained a lot of terrifying scenes. Although its combat segment seemed simple, it required skills in controlling the game character.
That was why many streamers wanted to show their gaming skills while playing Zombie Apocalypse in their live streams, but most failed.
Some timid streamers didn’t even get to play the game for a long time since they were too scared to continue the game.
Meanwhile, the overly realistic immersive game revealed some disadvantages.
Its disadvantage was being too realistic. Especially for a game like Zombie Apocalypse, people might get too immersed in it and forget that they were actually just playing a game!
However, although the streamers didn’t get to clear Zombie Apocalypse, they were still willing to hold onto such an opportunity to increase fans.
As a result, a phenomenon appeared in the live-streaming industry. Many live streamers stopped broadcasting the games they usually played, nor were they playing Zombie Apocalypse.
Instead, they played the video of Angelica clearing the game in their live-stream room and watched it with the viewers.
Even so, the viewers in the live stream room were discussing it with great enthusiasm.
At this point, the netizens discovered a problem.
[I’ve watched a lot of live streamers playing Zombie Apocalypse these days, but only a few of them can clear the game. Is the game really that difficult?]
[I agree. The game doesn’t look challenging at first glance, but the fastest person to clear it is still Angelica! Even many streamers who are famous for their gaming skills can’t clear it in one try!]
[Isn’t this game a little too challenging? If the situation goes on, will Zombie Apocalypse II become even more difficult?]
[Does anyone know who is the game producer? I really want to report this problem to him!]
The netizens were worried that the following seasons would become even more complicated, which would cause them to be unable to play it.
As a result, netizens posted their request on the internet, hoping to find the game producer and ask him to lower the game’s difficulty.
Some fans even regathered in Angelica’s live-stream room.
[Host, can you talk to the game producer and ask him to lower the difficulty? I’ve been playing for a few days and am still stuck in the game!]
[That’s right, host. The game is too difficult. I can’t pass it no matter how hard I play it. It’s so annoying!]
[Host, can you play Zombie Apocalypse in your live stream one more time? I really hope to see you play it with my own eyes!]
While looking at the comments, Angelica took note of the problems raised by the viewers and planned to give Su Ping feedback after her live stream ended.
However, Angelica’s reply would be the same for those who asked her to play Zombie Apocalypse again.
“Don’t even think about it. You all just want to see me scared to death by the game and killed by zombies, right? I won’t fall for it!”
Although Angelica had cleared the game, she was extremely unwilling to play the game again.
Besides, it would be boring to play the same plot again. It would be better to rest and prepare for the Zombie Apocalypse II that Su Ping will release soon!
Angelica, who had already gained popularity due to the game, could imagine how lively the live stream room would be when she live-streamed playing Zombie Apocalypse II.
All the fans of Zombie Apocalypse might come to her live stream room to watch her live stream playing the game!
“During that time, will my live stream room explode from the crowd? Hehe, it’s exciting just thinking about it!”
Just as Angelica was live streaming, on the other side, at the Steam company headquarters.
The company was interested in Zombie Apocalypse, the global hit game.
As the world’s largest gaming platform, Steam’s success was based on constantly discovering good games.
Steam would be willing to spend a lot of money to explore and support the development of potential games just like Zombie Apocalypse.
“Have you found the producer of Zombie Apocalypse, which has been very popular recently?”
“It’s a waste to let such a good game be free!”
A director asked his subordinates in an office at Steam headquarters.
The subordinate shook his head and said regretfully.
“I’m sorry, director. The producer didn’t leave any contact information on our platform. He just released the game on our platform.”
“Also, the producer seems to be deliberately hiding his identity. He even forged the IP address when uploading the game.”
The director frowned in dissatisfaction after hearing it.
“So, we have no idea where to find the producer?”
The subordinate nodded.
After a while, the director seemed to give up on looking for the game producer. Then, he changed the topic of their conversation to other matters.
“Could you assist me in getting my directive to the game development team to promote Zombie Apocalypse? They should learn something from it!”
“I want everyone to experience the Zombie Apocalypse, but I’m not just letting everyone play games.”
“The game development team should look for reasons why the game is successful from the producer’s point of view while playing it. Also, they should find out the advantage of the game.”
“This will be a great inspiration for our original games! I hope we can one day make an excellent game like Zombie Apocalypse!”
The company director’s directive was quickly passed down.
At first, the employees of Steam disapproved of the order and just went to play games.
The director had allowed them some downtime. They could get their salary by playing games, so why not?
However, the employees of Steam soon realized the problem.
“Sigh, Zombie Apocalypse is too difficult to play, but the company asked us to clear it. What should we do?”
“It’s not a big deal to clear the game. The company wants us to write about our experiences and gains after playing the game, isn’t that the main issue? It is worse than killing me!”
“That’s right! Do we have to keep an eye on the zombies while playing the game? It is torturing me!”
Soon, the employees began to complain incessantly.
It was because of the harsh requirements given by the senior executives of Steam.
In particular, many employees in the company who weren’t good enough in terms of skills and lack of courage were soon tortured to death.
The company was filled with employees’ heartbreaking cries, and the office building next door could even hear their cries.
The employees of other companies even once thought that the Steam employees had encountered danger in the company!
