Of the five hundred thousand buyers, more than half of them were attracted by the advertisement, and didn't really buy Diablo because they knew about it beforehand.
But after a day of playing Diablo, these players were completely addicted to the game. They exclaimed loudly, "This is so f * cking fun!"
Then they became so addicted to the game that they didn't care about anything else. When they went to school or work the next day, they all had huge dark circles under their eyes. It was obvious that they didn't get enough sleep.
It couldn't be helped. Diablo was just too fun.
Although Diablo in this world only provided the framework of the game, the whole game was built by a new group of game designers. The main storyline, the names of the maps, and the missions were completely different from the previous world.
But because the gameplay was exactly the same, it still produced an incredible effect. Many young people on the streets felt like there were fewer of them. They were all playing games at home!
At the same time, Diablo reached an even higher peak with a report in Gaming Life magazine.
The Gerrard couple was a famous couple in Atlanta. The husband was an executive in a bank, and the wife was a member of the Senate. This was the most beautiful life, and everyone envied them.
But things weren't perfect in this world. The Gerrard couple also had their own difficulties. Their son, little Gerrard, was a hypochondriac.
Mr. and Mrs. Gerrard didn't know when little Gerrard got this damn disease. Anyway, since then, little Gerrard had tried to commit suicide seven times. If Mrs. Gerrard hadn't hired two maids and two bodyguards to keep an eye on little Gerrard all the time after the first suicide, this poor child might have already died.
"You're back!" Mrs. Gerrard looked at her husband tiredly.
"How's the child?" Mr. Gerrard asked with concern.
"Not very good. The maid found that a bottle of herbicide in the yard was missing. She rushed to the child's room and took it back before the child drank the herbicide. Otherwise, our child would be gone!" Mrs. Gerrard couldn't help crying when she said this. She was too tired in heart.
"Don't cry. As long as the baby is all right, our baby will get better!" Mr. Gerrard said.
At this time, Mrs. Gerrard found that Mr. Gerrard was holding a blood-red box with a picture of a horrible devil. She was shocked and asked quickly, "What is this?"
"It's a computer game called Diablo!" Mr. Gerrard quickly explained.
"Why did you buy this thing? You never play computer games. Didn't you say that they are the devil that erodes our healthy lives? "Mrs. Gerrard exclaimed.
"I don't want to buy it either, but I think it may help our child!" Mr. Gerrard sighed. "Do you know Mr. Carl from our bank?"
"Yes, she is the colleague who joined the company at the same time as you. She also had a baby on the same day as us!" Mrs. Gerrard nodded.
"That's right!" Mr. Gerrard nodded and said, "His child is also a troublemaker. He loves to play games, and now he is completely addicted to computer games. Look, this is Diablo. I heard that the child has locked himself in his room for three days and three nights. He has been playing this game all the time except for eating and sleeping. "
"Mr. Carl is going crazy, but there is no other way. This game is really fun!"
"What! Then why did you buy this game? "Mrs. Gerrard was shocked and said," Are you going to let little Gerrard play this game? "
"Why not?" Mr. Gerrard's eyes flashed with wisdom. "Our child's biggest problem now is not that he is unwilling to come out of his room, but that he has lost interest in this world. Including our parents, there is nothing in this world that can attract him to continue to stay!"
"So I think that if this game can really make a normal child unable to leave his side for three days and three nights, then maybe this is a reason to attract little Gerrard to continue to stay in this world!"
"Will this work?" Mrs. Gerrard asked in disbelief.
"Let's try and see. If Xiang Gerrard is really not interested, then it doesn't matter. It's just a waste of two hundred dollars!" Mr. Gerrard said casually.
"What? You spent two hundred dollars on this game!" Mrs. Gerrard screamed, "Are they robbing us?"
"No, you can't blame the game manufacturer. The original price of this game was sixty dollars, but because it was out of stock all over the country, I could only buy it through some special channels at a high price!" Mr. Gerrard sighed.
"Oh my god, what kind of game is this? It can actually triple the price! "Mrs. Gerrard was completely shocked.
A few minutes later, Mr. Gerrard took the Diablo game into his child's room and put it on little Gerrard's table. Little Gerrard did not even look at his father. Mr. Gerrard could only say helplessly behind him, "Son, this is a computer game that everyone has been playing recently. I heard it is very interesting. If you really think this world is boring, you can try this game first!"
"Take it away. This game is too low-level. It's boring!" Little Gerrard said without raising his head. In fact, it was not that Mr. Gerrard had never played games for little Gerrard, and little Gerrard did play a few times. But soon, these games became meaningless things in little Gerrard's mouth. Even the Mario Brothers were boring things.
"Forget it, you decide for yourself!" Mr. Gerrard said disappointedly. Then he left his son's room. He knew that he could not stay in his son's room for too long, or his son would go crazy and hurt him crazily.
As Mr. Gerrard left, little Gerrard's eyes fell on the Diablo game box involuntarily. After looking at it for a long time, the child sighed, "Forget it, I'll give it a try!"
So, little Gerrard opened the game box and took out the installation disc. He inserted it into the latest Dell computer that Mr. Gerrard bought last month and started to install the game.
Twenty minutes later, the game was installed. Little Gerrard created a character randomly and then landed on the Dark Continent …
