An internet cafe in the Imperial Capital.
A young man with unkempt hair walked out of the internet cafe, just in time to see the rising sun.
He yawned as he prepared to walk back, he really needed to go back to his rented apartment and have a good sleep.
Suddenly, he seemed to have remembered something as he ran back to his computer in the internet cafe and grabbed the pack of cigarettes that he had left beside the keyboard.
"My combat power will be halved without cigarettes."
The young man walked out again.
This was an internet cafe. The matrix gaming pod and the computer each occupied half of the space. This kind of situation was very rare in the Imperial Capital.
After all, VR equipment had been developing rapidly over the past few years and the price had been dropping. The market share of PC games was being squeezed.
Many people said that it wasn't long before the PC became an office piece of equipment.
There were many posters pasted on the walls of the internet cafe. Although this relatively outdated method of advertising was being phased out, it still existed in some internet cafes.
Some of the more nostalgic gamers still liked this traditional method of advertising.
"Prepare for S8 with NRG!"
"The PUBG Invitational Tournament is about to begin. Come and watch Jadep Qin An ascend to the top!"
"Thunderbolt Entertainment's new game is about to be released!"
"Oasis is about to release version 20. More exciting content on Matrix Gaming Platform!"
The young man came to Fates Internet Cafe every day, he had seen the posters countless times.
Although PC games were going downhill with people saying that League of Legends was going to die, it was strange that the game somehow managed to survive. Moreover, the attention of the World Finals was increasing instead of decreasing.
Many players no longer played matchmaking or ranked matches. They would only go online during special events, but that didn't affect their passion for watching the matches.
Although PlayerUnknown's Battleground had decreased in popularity, the World Finals was on the right track. The Chinese team led by Qin An performed extremely well in the World Finals with the help of the Celestial Suit, bringing back countless glory.
"Why is he so good if he can't play games …"
The young man felt a little helpless. Qin An's story had been heavily exaggerated by various gaming media. Everyone knew that the world's strongest player in PlayerUnknown's Battleground came from an unknown internet cafe in the Imperial Capital. His spirit of living in a cubicle, eating instant noodles, and persevering on the internet had inspired countless internet-addicted teenagers, leading them onto the path of no return in eSports.
However, this young man could not learn from Qin An because he was poorer than Qin An.
At least Qin An could afford to go to the VR internet cafe, but he could only play in the PC area …
It could only be said, life …
"Jiang Huan, here."
Just as the young man was about to leave, the owner of the internet cafe, Zhuo Yao, who was doing the accounts, passed him a flyer.
"Hmm? What is this? "
Jiang Huan reached out to take it. On the flyer was written: "Thunderbolt Games Professional Tester, Hiring Now!"
Jiang Huan wanted to throw the flyer away subconsciously, "Zhuo Yao sis, don't screw me over. Thunderbolt Entertainment is such a big company, why would they send out flyers …"
Zhuo Yao laughed, "Why not? Fate Internet Cafe has a partnership with Thunderbolt Entertainment, so it's not strange for us to help promote. Don't you know what kind of person I am? I wouldn't screw you over. If you don't believe me, go take a look at Thunderbolt Entertainment's official website, there really is a recruitment plan. "
Jiang Huan suddenly thought of a rumor and asked quietly, "Zhuo Yao sis, I heard that Chen Mo really came here to play games?"
Zhuo Yao immediately became excited, "What do you mean by I heard it's true? It's true! Do you think I'd lie to you? You just came to the Imperial Capital this year, so you probably don't know. His experience store was right at the end of the street, and it was really quiet when it first opened … "
Jiang Huan felt that something was wrong. Zhuo Yao's words made it hard for him to stop, so he quickly said, "Alright, I got it, Zhuo Yao sis. I'll be going now!"
After leaving the internet cafe, Jiang Huan looked at the contents of the flyer as he walked back to his apartment.
"Professional Tester …"
"To undergo a full physical examination, one must meet the corresponding health standards, have strong mental fortitude and excellent reflexes …"
"Monthly salary, base salary of twelve thousand per month … increases based on performance in game …"
Jiang Huan was immediately tempted.
In fact, Zhuo Yao had tried to convince him many times to find a proper job and not spend all his time in internet cafes. He wouldn't be able to survive in the Imperial Capital with the little money he earned from his part-time job.
Zhuo Yao also said that Qin An was a special case. To be able to make it out of the Shenxian server meant that he had to have one in a million gaming talent. It sounded encouraging, but it was actually poison.
Who knew how many internet addicts had wasted their youth in internet cafes, only to end up with a sad ending.
Jiang Huan also knew that Zhuo Yao was being considerate as the owner of the internet cafe was trying to convince him.
Jiang Huan was also conflicted as he didn't seem to have much talent in PC games, nor did he have the gift of gab like many streamers. It was difficult to become a streamer.
"It wouldn't be a bad idea if I could become a tester," Jiang Huan mumbled to himself.
Jiang Huan had heard that testers at Thunderbolt Gaming were completely different from testers at other companies.
The testers of the other game companies were basically labourers. They were only responsible for finding bugs, loopholes, and design problems in the game. They had to play the game hundreds or thousands of times according to the test cases to find all kinds of problems in the corners.
It didn't require great gaming talent, it all depended on how attentive and reliable you were.
However, Thunderbolt Entertainment's games were different, as they never had bugs or design loopholes.
The game didn't require any testing or modification after it was made.
So what did Thunderbolt Entertainment hire testers for?
It was real game testing, testing the game as a hardcore gamer, giving suggestions and suggestions, testing if the difficulty of the game was reasonable.
In other words, Thunderbolt Entertainment's testers were all top gamers. They directly determined the upper limit of a game. If even these testers found the game difficult, then Chen Mo would lower the difficulty.
Moreover, these testers had more advanced tasks, which was to try out some high-immersion VR games and experience the most cutting-edge technology in the Matrix game cabin.
The development of the next generation of VR technology was far from over. The VR pod allowed players to enter one crazy and bizarre game world after another, but the high level of immersion also brought risks to the players.
