As the dust settled from the TGN Awards Ceremony, Chen Mo also won the Game of the Year award.
This meant that Chen Mo accomplished two feats this year. First, Doomsday of the United States swept almost all the video game reviewers around the world. Second, Doomsday of the United States, Uncharted Waters, and PUBG were all huge successes.
All of a sudden, they were in the limelight.
Both foreign and domestic video game media released articles to record this historic moment as soon as TGN Game of the Year was announced.
"TGN Game of the Year: Doomsday of the United States takes all four awards, Thunderbolt Entertainment is the biggest winner!"
"TGN Game of the Year: PUBG wins Player's Choice Award!"
"All three of Thunderbolt Entertainment's games were nominated for the Game of the Year award!"
"Thunderbolt Entertainment Dominates TGN, Rise of Chinese Video Game?"
"Widely Recognized as a Masterpiece! Doomsday of the United States gets rave reviews, Chen Mo may become a God! "
"The Best Analysis! Why Doomsday of the United States is Widely Recognized as a Masterpiece! "
This time, both domestic and foreign video game media were basically the same, bragging about Doomsday of the United States.
It couldn't be helped, the results were there. Each of the three games released by Chen Mo this year was enough to dominate the VR platform, not to mention all three were released at the same time.
If it was last year, there might be some people who were jealous, saying that Dark Souls was opportunistic and Thunderbolt Entertainment didn't have enough resources, but no one dared to say that this year.
Three different types of games were all nominated for the Game of the Year award, and Doomsday of the United States conquered the video game reviewers all over the world with full scores. This result might not be unprecedented, but it was enough to stand out from the rest of the world.
The players in China were also overjoyed, feeling proud of Chen Mo.
They witnessed Chen Mo's growth step by step, from mobile games to PC games, and then to VR games.
From casual games, to strategy games, to RPG games, to top AAA games …
There was finally a Chinese video game designer who could stand at the top of the video game industry. This kind of pride was far stronger than some domestic video game companies bragging about their annual financial report.
Even if a video game company could make a lot of money, they still couldn't conquer all the players without a game.
The love and trust the players had for Chen Mo wasn't because he often lost money, but because he made something that everyone could be proud of, and made games that touched the hearts of the players.
…
As Chen Mo's popularity skyrocketed across the world, many players were asking the same question.
"What the hell are those glasses he's wearing?"
During the award ceremony, Chen Mo received quite a bit of attention from the glasses. Many tech geeks even downloaded the HD video of the award ceremony to analyze the pattern on Chen Mo's glasses.
At first, the players thought that this thing was just a convenient translation tool. However, after many technical geeks revealed it, the players realized that this thing was far from as simple as they thought.
Based on the video recordings, the tech geeks analyzed the functions of the smart glasses.
It can translate multiple languages in real time.
You can search for the desired information on the Internet and display it on the lenses.
It can record and analyze many key information and data.
In addition, there were many more complicated patterns on the lens, their meaning unknown. However, it was clear that the expressive power of the glasses was not limited to just a few lines of text. It was very likely to be a brand new smart device.
Moreover, it was controlled by mind. Obviously, it was the latest achievement of the miniature mind gathering device.
Many players expressed, "We want it too!"
Obviously, the smart glasses that Chen Mo wore fit the definition of "Mixed Reality". It was outstanding both in terms of appearance and practicality.
However, the players also had many questions. Before the specific parameters were revealed, it was hard to say whether the glasses would be the future direction of development, or just a concept that looked good.
For example, how long did it last? What was the price? Were there any safety issues?
If any of these were problematic, the glasses wouldn't be popular.
The players' attitude was basically to wait and see. Obviously, this was a product that hadn't been officially released yet. However, no matter what, Chen Mo wearing the smart glasses at TGN added fuel to the already popular "wearable smart devices", making them even more popular.
…
Before Chinese New Year, a large number of wearable smart devices suddenly appeared on the market.
There were glasses, helmets, smart control modules that could be connected to phones …
Obviously, these were all new smart devices developed by the hardware manufacturers using the miniature mind gathering device. In order to grab the market, they focused on selling them before Chinese New Year.
There were so many different brands and types that many players were confused. They had just released a good looking smart glasses today, and there would be better ones tomorrow.
Moreover, the configurations and functions of these devices were all different. Therefore, even the tech nerds who were preparing to get their hands on the glasses were confused. It seemed like the reviews would take a while.
However, the anticipated "Chen Mo's Glasses" didn't appear.
This was because Chen Mo hadn't been at TGN for long. It was too late for the hardware developers to ride on Chen Mo's popularity. Their products had already been finalized, and were even in production. This kind of high tech smart product wasn't like the small mass-produced products that could be easily copied.
There were a few smaller manufacturers that forcefully changed the appearance and labeled their products as "Chen Mo's Glasses". However, the tech nerds could immediately tell that this thing was completely different from the glasses Chen Mo wore. They were immediately flooded with negative reviews.
Many major shopping websites had already started selling them, and a bunch of tech nerds volunteered to be lab rats to review these new smart wearable devices.
"Hise Smart Helmet: Heavy, and has poor heat dissipation. Not very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Decent specs."
"Windmill Smart Glasses: Small and portable, simple and practical, but has few applications. Waiting for further observation."
"Phone Smart Control Module: Mysterious product. Not only does it require a mind gathering device on the ear, it also requires a bluetooth connection to the phone. Weird, whoever buys it is an idiot."
…
The reviews came out one after another.
After a group of dedicated pioneers bravely went through the mines, the players basically came to a consensus that the most reliable device was still the glasses.
In reality, the helmet and glasses were similar. The helmet's specs might be better, but the problem was that the helmet was very heavy, and heat dissipation was also a problem. The comfort level was nowhere near that of headphones.
