They wanted to make a trashy game, but how come it sold like hotcakes again?

Chapter 4 Tang Yi'er

Three months passed quickly, and "Three Kingdoms Kill" officially entered the release phase.

Hao Zheng, who was live-streaming at home, picked up his cup and took a sip of water. At that moment, he caught a glimpse of a bolded comment on the screen.

"Tang Yi'er, your dad's released a new game, aren't you going to go protect him?"

Hao Zheng paused for a moment, repeated the comment, and then continued.

"Thanks to SC for protecting the world's best brother, Yi'er. Has Tangren Games released a new game? What kind is it? I'll check it out after I finish this part of the story."

With this statement, the live stream room, which was discussing the content of the live stream, fell into a brief silence, and then an uproar of comments filled the screen.

"Protect the world's best son!"

"Who is Tang Yi'er from Witt?"

"No way, a sugar figurine dares to play games? A masochist?"

"Oh, oh, oh, oh! I just searched it up, and it's true! Sugar Man really has a new game, a mobile game called 'Three Kingdoms Kill.' I'm tired of this game anyway, Hao-ge, let's get a new disc!"

It's normal for the chat room to explode with comments.

First, there are two types of live streamers: one type started out as a live streamer, and the other type has a consistently active chat room.

Hao Zheng is a different case; he started out making videos. His fans usually treat his livestreams as hypnotic sessions, but now that something's happened, the chat is naturally exploding.

Moreover, this kind of content is about Tang Dynasty games.

It's worth noting that Hao Zheng is known as "Tang Yi'er" across the internet.

Meaning: The only son of Tangren Games.

He's known as Tang Yi'er for a simple reason: he's the only game streamer on the entire internet who says that the games made by Tangren Games aren't bad.

Those players who disliked Tangren Games also harbored resentment towards him, giving him the nickname "Tang Yi'er".

Hao Zheng never cared, because he knew the truth.

Someone is buying negative reviews for Tangren Games.

He had also received a quote from them, which was so high that it was far more expensive than any other game promotion quote. So the online trolls were very dedicated; when they were attacking Tangren Games, they also attacked him.

However, the reason Hao Zheng is able to make a living in the internet industry is because he has his own objective evaluation of all games. Unaffected by any factors, even when receiving promotional offers, he speaks his mind directly: good is good, bad is bad, so naturally he rejected the offer.

He can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.

As for why the truth isn't revealed?

He still needs to make a living in this industry. If he doesn't take orders, someone else will. If he offends everyone, how awkward will it be when they meet again?

Hao Zheng can only demand of himself what he demands of others, and cannot demand of others what he demands of himself.

The principle of being strict with oneself and lenient with others.

Pulling his wandering thoughts back, he saw all sorts of comments still flooding the screen, basically telling him to try out the new mobile game called "Three Kingdoms Kill" that Tangren Games was recently developing.

This wasn't the first time he'd played a game that was being streamed live, so he simply quit the game and opened the Steam gaming platform.

I typed that incredibly familiar string of numbers into the search bar.

Then he saw the game he had never seen before.

"Oh? The only cross-platform PVP card game on the entire internet called 'Three Kingdoms Kill'? Sounds like a complete flop. What's wrong with Tangren Games? Are they really giving up? Does anyone have any inside information?"

"I just arrived. I'm your uncle. My sister and this sugar figurine seller got divorced, and the court awarded custody of you to my sister. Nephew, stop pretending to be crazy and swindling money outside. Come home, and your uncle will steal electric batteries to support you."

"66666, and there's even an ethical joke."

"I think this company is just giving up. They want to make mobile games but don't know how, so they can only bring out their dinner from the smart lunchbox in the bathroom."

"Smart lunchboxes are here? So, does anyone know how well these things actually clean?"

"It's either ethical jokes or toilet humor, it's unbeatable, Brother Hao."

The game is downloading, and Hao Zheng is waiting for the time to reply to the comments.

"Uncle, uncle, my good uncle, let's check out the V50 first."

"Just buy the smart lunchbox, you won't regret it, it's super clean."

"There's nothing I can do, that's just how this live stream is. But you've already insulted the viewers, so you can't insult me ​​now."

Just as Hao Zheng was about to continue the interaction with the fans, his computer beeped. He turned his attention back to the computer, turned on his webcam, and started recording a video.

His main job is as a content creator on YouTube; live streaming is just a side job.

Now that Tangren Games has released a new game, he will definitely have to review it.

Since the live stream is so popular right now, and he can't end it, he might as well record footage while he's streaming.

"Good morning, afternoon, and evening, everyone. This is Hao Haopin from Game. Today, my dad, Tangren Games, released a new game called 'Three Kingdoms Kill.' According to their promotion, it's the only dual-platform PVP card game on the entire internet. Let's see what's going on."

The barrage of comments intensified.

"Oh my god, my husband is so handsome."

"Reject animal performances."

"Hello everyone, this is the Pet Lover Livestream. If you like the streamer, please help by reporting this streamer."

"Don't post scary pictures."

"There's no time to waste, so this will do."

As a piece of ancient music began to play, Hao Zheng entered the game, completing the tutorial quests while explaining things to the viewers in the chat:

"The Three Kingdoms period was an important period of division following the Eastern Han Dynasty and before the Western Jin Dynasty. Although the Three Kingdoms refers to the period when the three regimes of Wei, Shu, and Wu stood in a tripartite balance of power, the period from the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the warlord conflicts to the unification of China by the Western Jin Dynasty can actually be called the Three Kingdoms period."

"Great, this is my favorite science popularization segment."

"The plagiarism rate is 100%. Lao Hao definitely secretly used AI to check the data."

Teacher Hao glanced at the comments but didn't reply, as he was still recording footage.

He continued at his own pace, playing a card that was transformed from a dodge into a kill, and then began to introduce the game according to his own understanding.

"Kill, dodge, peach and some brocade pouches... I wonder if any of you viewers played a game called Kamehameha when you were kids."

It's like this game; there are attack, defense, and energy accumulation... I can't feel the game's appeal yet.

After finishing the first beginner tutorial, Hao Zheng opened the second beginner tutorial.

"Ah, it turns out it's not as simple as I thought. It feels like this game also incorporates some elements of Werewolf."

Lord, loyal minister, traitor, rebel—don't these correspond to God, commoner, werewolf, and independent faction?

So the most crucial thing in this game should be how to identify teammates, right?

Okay, I completely understand this game now. Let's start a match and see.
