Chapter 37
It wasn’t just about popular streamers with millions of fans. Even many passersby chose to start their live streams.
Even if only a few people watched their live stream, they were willing to share their gaming experiences with more people.
Meanwhile, PDD was also live-streaming A Quiet Place. However, his performance was inferior to Mikuya’s. The monsters were torturing him in the game.
“Please don’t kill me! I didn’t mean to make a sound! Please spare me!”
PDD controlled the body of the mistress and ran for his life. However, the character was already pregnant. Shortly after he started to run, the monster caught up with him, and the game was over.
It was the fourth time he had been killed by a monster!
Moreover, he had been playing the game for three to four hours. He started live streaming at almost the same time as Mikuya.
However, not to mention clearing the game, he had yet to even start the last stage!
[Haha! PDD, why don’t you change to another game? I remember you haven’t cleared Zombie Apocalypse I yet, right?]
[Forget it, forget it. This game is obviously not suitable for you. Let’s change to another game.]
[The host’s entire life is just to make us laugh. It’s too funny. Although you’ve been dying, you won in terms of entertaining us!]
[Host, can you stop making noises? You’ve already killed the family of four several times. Don’t you feel any guilt?]
PDD’s face turned red while seeing the viewers’ mockery and ridicule.
He said it because he refused to accept his failure.
“Hmph! I just haven’t shown my strength yet. Besides, this is just for the live stream to be entertaining. If I’m serious, killing those monsters is like killing a bunch of ants!”
“All of you, watch closely. I’m going to show my skills!”
After PDD finished his words, he started the game again.
In the latest round, the viewers could clearly tell he was much more serious.
However, dreams are always better than reality.
As usual, the family was wiped out again after a small mistake that attracted a monster in less than half an hour!
Finally, he couldn’t find any reason to explain his failure and chose to end the stream in shame!
On the other side, Wesley was also streaming A Quiet Place.
A game that required absolute silence, as A Quiet Place seemed to be opposed to his personality.
As a result, Wesley’s failed the game in a more miserable way than PDD. It had only been three hours since he started live streaming, but he had replayed the game more than ten times!
On average, he restarted the game every 20 minutes!
In addition to the two of them, the world’s major live broadcast platforms were filled with screams of the streamers who had been killed by monsters.
Only a few game streamers could safely overcome the difficulties in the early stages, reach the final battle, destroy the monsters, and clear the game!
Soon, all sorts of news and search terms related to A Quiet Place were at the top of the global trending list.
The most searched trend on the list was A Quiet Place!
Zombie Apocalypse made Su Ping famous. It let countless players know that there was such an independent game producer who was only interested in making good games.
On the other hand, A Quiet Place made Su Ping’s game a big hit. His games became a big IP known by everyone!
Many people didn’t even sleep to play the game as soon as possible.
Players from the other hemisphere, in particular, opened Steam at 12 a.m. in the middle of the night to download the game. They stayed up all night playing the game and fell asleep after getting exhausted in their frightened cries.
Three hours after the release of A Quiet Place, global sales reached 30 million downloads!
Once again, A Quiet Place had broken the record that Su Ping had personally set through Zombie Apocalypse II!
If the situation continues, the number of downloads of A Quiet Place would likely reach a new peak, which might even reach hundreds of millions of downloads in the future!
Many netizens felt sorry for Su Ping. If such an excellent game was released as a paid game...
Su Ping had become a billionaire!
However, after witnessing the success of A Quiet Place, Su Ping finally announced that the new games in the future would no longer be free!
Instead, it would be paid games!
Not long after the announcement was made, the players reacted strongly to it. However, how the players responded to Su Ping’s announcement was completely different from when Storm Gaming Company announced the price of their games!
[Support! You have my full support! You’ve finally started to charge a fee. Otherwise, I’d have to worry about you not having enough money to continue making games!]
[That’s right! Su Ping should’ve charged us a long time ago. We have money to pay compared to the quality of the game!]
[As long as you maintain your standard and produce good games, it doesn’t matter if the price is slightly higher. Everyone will be willing to pay!]
Su Ping was relieved to see the comments.
Although Su Ping’s game had a high reputation online, he was still worried that it would cause some adverse reactions if he suddenly changed his games into paid games.
Now, it seemed that he had indeed been overthinking.
Then, Su Ping made another announcement. His latest announcement officially set the selling price for the new game, Zombie Apocalypse III.
“The price of Zombie Apocalypse III would be 298 yuan!
The price includes the game Zombie Apocalypse III and a set of Alice’s combat suits and equipment! It’ll help you clear the game faster and more smoothly!
I hope everyone will enjoy my game!”
Su Ping found that he got a meeting invitation from Steam as soon as he made his announcement.
Su Ping was curious, and he joined the meeting. Soon, he found the man on the screen familiar.
It seemed to be the guy who often spoke at Steam’s press conferences. The guy would appear whenever Steam promoted a new game!
“Hello, Mr. Su. I believe you know Steam has always been paying attention to you.”
Su Ping nodded and asked confusingly.
“Of course I do. What’s the matter today? If you want me to join you, then forget it. I don’t have such plans!”
With a smile, the man said.
“Haha! You’re overthinking it. We’ve always respected your decision.”
“Today, I contacted you mainly because I have a suggestion.”
“Mr. Su, have you ever thought about starting the pre-sales of Zombie Apocalypse III to get back some funds for yourself?”
