In 2017, if it wasn't for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wilderness, the Game of the Year award would have been given to Odyssey. Games like Horizon and PlayerUnknown's Battleground would have been relegated to the background.
However, the situation was different in the parallel world.
In the parallel world, the Dark Souls series released two games at once. It was the pioneer of Souls-based games, the most popular VR platform, and it even used the latest AI engine.
As for Super Mario Bros. Odyssey, it relied on the Switch platform. In his previous life, the Switch was on the same level as the major consoles, but in the parallel world, it was obviously inferior to the VR platform in all aspects.
It was because of this that the TGN judges gave the Game of the Year award to Dark Souls. However, one thing was for sure, even without Dark Souls, the Game of the Year award would have most likely gone to Super Mario Bros. Odyssey.
After getting off the plane, Chen Mo couldn't help but wrap his down jacket tightly around himself.
Even the most pretentious person would still feel cold.
Although Chen Mo managed to show off in front of all the players in the world during his trip before Chinese New Year, it was also quite tiring for him. It was only a few days before Chinese New Year, and he had to take the train home to see his parents.
Perhaps due to the time difference, Chen Mo still felt a bit dizzy, but he couldn't sleep as he still had to take the ferry back to the airport.
There were quite a few passengers on the ferry, all of them looking travel-worn. Chen Mo happened to have a seat. Seeing that there was still a long way to go, he took out the Switch from his bag to kill some time.
Sitting next to Chen Mo was a young man in his early twenties. He was wearing a bunch of branded clothes, obviously from a rich family.
No one would believe him if he said he was from a rich family at this age.
When the young man saw Chen Mo taking out the Switch from his bag, he came over curiously, "Handheld?"
Chen Mo nodded, "Yep, haven't you heard of the Switch?"
"Never heard of it. People still play handheld games in this day and age?" The young man looked at Chen Mo with disdain, obviously not having heard of the Switch before.
Chen Mo laughed, "What's wrong with handheld games?"
The young man snorted. "Bro, you're only four or five years older than me. Why are you so retro when you're playing games? Mobile phones have long been obsolete. "
Chen Mo laughed, "You're saying it's going to be eliminated? From what I know, the Switch is selling quite well. "
The customer furrowed his eyebrows, obviously thinking that Chen Mo was bickering, "That's not interesting at all. Sigh, let me ask you this. Can you play King of Glory with this broken handheld? You can't even play the most popular mobile games right now. Tell me, what's the point of buying it? "
"Oh …" Chen Mo sighed, "I'm sorry, I really can."
"Ah?" The young man was dumbfounded.
Chen Mo quietly closed Dark Souls and opened Kings of Glory.
The young man was stunned. He felt that his worldview had been overturned.
It really was King of Glory!
The young man looked at the screen of the Switch in disbelief. On it was the familiar Kings of Glory game, and the screen was really huge!
Not only that, the entire UI layout seemed to have been changed. After removing the messy virtual buttons, the entire game looked much cleaner and more comfortable to look at.
Big screen, high definition display, and even the models seemed to be much more detailed …
The young man scratched his head, wondering if he had opened it the wrong way …
Chen Mo handed the Switch to him, "Want to try it?"
The young man received the switch in fear and trepidation. It was obvious that the way he looked at the handheld was a little different …
Chen Mo turned on the Switch for him, and the young man started playing with it curiously.
"Wow, this physical joystick feels great!"
"The screen's so big? It's so much better than the small screen on my phone … "
"Movement and skill casting are pretty good. Eh? It's surprisingly good! "
The young man felt like his worldview had been overturned. Why did playing Kings of Glory on the Switch feel so much better than on my phone? You wouldn't know if you didn't try it out. The experience of playing with a physical joystick was so much better!
The young man asked curiously, "How much is this handheld?"
Chen Mo replied, "Oh, it's not expensive, two thousand RMB. There's an event during Chinese New Year, and the Chinese New Year edition is around two thousand RMB with a bunch of free games. "
The young man was shocked, "Two thousand RMB?! That cheap? Two thousand RMB is only enough to buy a low-end phone, right? Any high-end phone would cost four to five thousand RMB, or even tens of thousands RMB! "
Chen Mo laughed, "Yes, it's that cheap."
The young man seemed to have discovered a new continent as he started to look at the other screens of Kings of Glory.
"Bro, you … you have a full set of heroes and skins?!"
The young man was shocked. This account actually had all the heroes and skins. It even had all the heroes and skins from the Diamond and Treasure Hunt. Not a single Rare skin was missing!
But from the game history of this account, it was obvious that he didn't play much …
The young man looked at Chen Mo differently, "Bro, you have such a good machine, and an account with a full set of heroes and skins, but you don't play?! You're a real tycoon! "
Chen Mo laughed, "Sigh, I'm not a tycoon at all. It's just a matter of how much I spend."
The young man was shocked, "Why do you say that?"
Chen Mo explained, "You can buy a shirt for a few thousand, a pair of shoes for tens of thousands, and a bag for tens of thousands. But who are you buying it for? Am I right? "
"For the rich people in my circle to see? They're all wearing branded clothes too. For those who don't have money to see? They don't even recognize the brand of your clothes. "
"But skins are different. Take this account for example, it's full of heroes and skins. No matter where you go, no matter who you play with, as long as you're playing King of Glory, say, hey, my account is full of heroes and skins. Wouldn't it instantly kill everyone? "
"It's much better than buying a few branded clothes, right?"
The young man's eyes lit up, "That's right! You make a lot of sense, bro! "
Chen Mo laughed, "And how much does it cost to have a full set of heroes and skins? Take a guess? "
The young man was dumbfounded, "This … I've never calculated this."
Chen Mo laughed, "Look at you, you're not professional, I've calculated it."
The young man perked up, "You've calculated it? Then tell me, how much does it cost? "
Chen Mo explained, "Let's calculate it higher, alright. A full set of heroes is around 3800 RMB, Wu Zetian 6000 RMB, Han Xin 1000 RMB, so it's basically within 11000 RMB.
"A full set of skins is around 15000 RMB, a full set of glyphs is a bit more expensive, 50000 RMB. But you don't actually need a full set of glyphs, because some glyphs are trash and can't be used at all. You just need to save up for two sets of glyphs.
"If you calculate it this way, a full set of heroes and skins is around 20,000 RMB, and that's on the higher end. If your face is better and you save up, you might not even need that much money."
