At Beijing …
Qiao Liang was filled with righteous indignation as he read the discussions about Repent and be Saved on the internet.
How could they misinterpret Boss Pei's intentions like that?!
Slander, downright slander!
These brainless haters, with one look, there were signs of the Internet Water Army's activities.
Who hired these fake reviewers?
It must be those despicable competitors!
These people did not put their heart into making games. All they knew was that they were jealous of Tengda's reputation and sales. They hated the fact that they could not earn money while lying down after Tengda's appearance. That was why they used such despicable methods to slander Tengda.
How despicable!
Qiao Liang hated himself for not being able to make a video to expose the evil intentions of these fake reviewers and clear the name of this rare and good game.
Fortunately, there was only one day left until his appointment with Boss Pei.
Tomorrow, Teacher Qiao would officially make his appearance and give those fake reviewers and haters a huge blow!
Qiao Liang checked the materials on his computer and the script that he had already written.
According to his plan, he was going to rush today and finish the new episode of Products of the Gods. He was going to summarize the exciting parts of Repent and be Saved.
After that, he would produce a walkthrough video.
It should not be a problem to produce ten or so videos for a game like this, right?
He could produce a series to show off the results of his hard work and his skills. At the same time, he could satisfy his fans who had been waiting for so long.
Products of the Gods arrived first. Then, the series would be like a dragon.
Perfect!
At that thought, Qiao Liang began to produce a new video.
Products of the Gods, Episode Two: Repent and be Saved, a hardcore game that interrogates oneself!
The materials for the video were all prepared. The script was almost done as well. The next step was editing, dubbing, and then publishing.
This time, the content of the video was not entirely focused on the game's difficulty. That was because there were too many discussions about the game's difficulty online.
From Qiao Liang's point of view, many fake reviewers and haters were focusing on the game's difficulty. That was detestable, but they would fall into a trap if they focused too much on that.
The goal of fake reviewers was to focus all the discussion on the game's difficulty. They wanted to demonize the game's difficulty so that passersby who were not confident in their own skills would back off.
If one were to dwell on this point too much, it would only make the concept of "the game is difficult" ingrained in people's hearts, and it would be even more detrimental to dragging people into the pit.
Therefore, the high difficulty of the game was a natural threshold. It was also the home ground for fake reviewers and haters to fight.
If he wanted to defeat these haters and fake reviewers, he had to strike from a higher dimension to prove the reason and meaning behind the game's high difficulty!
After suffering for a long time, Qiao Liang had found a new dimension.
That was the spiritual core of the game!
Combining the spirit and difficulty of the game was what the game truly wanted to express to the players!
Qiao Liang extracted some of the content that he had gathered from Zhongdian Chinese Network. He added some of the insights that he had gained while playing the game into the document and wrote the content of this episode.
Qiao Liang nodded in satisfaction after browsing for a while.
Then, he opened the video editing software.
"Don't worry, Boss Pei. I'm here to protect you!"
…
October 7th.
Pei Qian scrolled through the web to check Repent and be Saved's statistics.
After the previous period of commotion, the forum finally quieted down a little.
After all, a week had passed. Everyone who should have bought the game had bought it, and those who regretted being tricked into the game had basically refunded it. Some of the game gods had even quietly completed the game.
Under such circumstances, ordinary topics could no longer incite intense debate.
There was a golden period for the dissemination of games. Pei Qian thought that as long as he could get through this golden period, he would have an easier time in the future.
From the current situation, the debate about the game's high difficulty seemed to have an effect. The growth of the game's sales slowed down significantly in the next few days.
After all, the market was not very receptive to high difficulty games. There were many players who were lousy.
Once the 'high difficulty' of a game was deeply ingrained in people's hearts, its reputation would not be affected, but it would still affect its sales.
Many players would not admit that they were lousy, but once they heard that the game was torturous, they would vote with their feet and not buy it.
After all, there had never been a similar soul-related game in the country. Players had not developed a habit for it. There were still too few players who liked to suffer.
The existence of 'Pudu' had greatly improved this situation. However, to Pei Qian, the current situation was still acceptable.
However, he could not let his guard down.
That was because Teacher Qiao had not released his video yet!
Pei Qian would not be able to rest easy as long as Teacher Qiao did not release his video.
Pei Qian was more or less mentally prepared for Teacher Qiao to release his video.
Pei Qian felt that Teacher Qiao would most likely release a very detailed walkthrough video. He would talk about the pros and cons of various weapons, how to defeat each boss, and so on.
After all, to Teacher Qiao, this was his greatest advantage as compared to other UP Masters. It was also the easiest for him to produce content.
If Teacher Qiao released such a video, it would not affect Pei Qian much.
That was because even if Teacher Qiao did not release it, other godly players who had completed the game would definitely release it. That was inevitable.
Such videos would be very helpful to players who had already purchased the game but were stuck or to cloud players who wanted to complete the game through videos.
However, it would not have much effect on the sales of the game itself.
Pei Qian had already thought about this when he invited Teacher Qiao over to try out the game. It should not be a big problem.
As long as the 'game's difficulty', the final fortress, was not broken, Pei Qian could rest easy.
After refreshing Aili Island's website again, Pei Qian decided to take a break and catch up on some dramas.
However, a new video suddenly appeared on the dynamic page.
'Products of the Gods Episode Two: Repent and be Saved, a hardcore game that interrogates oneself!'
Pei Qian, "?"
He quickly clicked on it.
There was a small line of text in the introduction: "Many players give up because of the game's difficulty. That's really regrettable. To me, this is not a game that will dissuade lousy players. On the contrary, only lousy players can truly understand the value of this game! "
Pei Qian, "???"
What the hell?
Only lousy players can truly understand the value of this game?
What nonsense are you spouting?!
You'd better watch your words and actions. If the players misinterpret the game, you'll have to take responsibility!
Pei Qian panicked and quickly clicked on the video.
…
"Hello, everyone. I'm still your Teacher Qiao.
"Actually, when Repent and be Saved was released, some players had been urging me to release a video.
"However, the video was only released today.
"Is it because I stood them up again? No, no, no. On the contrary, a month ago, when the game was still in development, I received an invitation from the official platform to experience the game.
"I only released the video today because I promised the design team that I would not spoil the game for a week after it was released. I wanted everyone to feel the rich content of the game with their hearts.
"However, I did not expect everyone to focus on the game's difficulty and ignore its rich content. I have to say that this is a very regrettable thing.
"What I want to say is that the game's difficulty is to better express the game's rich content.
"This isn't a mediocre work, but an exquisite game that has reached the pinnacle of immersion, surpassing all other games!"
"Dear Daddies, please listen to me in detail!"
Pei Qian was dumbfounded after listening to the introduction.
Holy sh * t? This Teacher Qiao is not playing by the rules at all!
Pei Qian had thought that Teacher Qiao would also be bothered by the game's difficulty and make the video a walkthrough, focusing more on the game's combat system and details.
However, that was not the case at all!
It looked like Teacher Qiao did not intend to be bothered by the game's difficulty at all. Instead, he wanted to focus on the game's content. What's more, he even praised the game and said that it was a top-notch immersive game?
Pei Qian was confused.
Top-Notch immersive game?
Was he talking about Repent and be Saved?
What's so immersive about this game?
The game's setting was already so tragic. Players would be tortured by monsters the moment they entered. How could they be immersive?
Filled with confusion, Pei Qian continued to watch.
"Everyone, please take note. The following plot analysis is mainly based on three aspects.
"The first aspect is the details that I noticed in the process of completing the game.
"The second aspect is the official plot of Repent and be Saved on Zhongdian Chinese Network.
"The third aspect is the series of comprehensions that I've gained in the process of continuous suffering and improvement."
"Among them, Repent and be Saved's official content on Zhongdian Chinese Network is much richer than the game itself. I've found the answers to many of my questions about the game. If everyone is interested in this, why don't you take a look?"
"The website will be posted in the comments section. Please take a look."
Pei Qian shivered again.
Why was Zhongdian Chinese Network involved in this?
Pei Qian knew about the official release of Repent and be Saved on Zhongdian Chinese Network.
However, wasn't he scolded badly?
Pei Qian had gone to the comments section before. It was like a bunch of demons dancing in a frenzy. Pei Qian really did not know how Ma Yiqun and the others could withstand the pressure and still keep this up on the website's front page.
Pei Qian felt that not only did this not have any effect on attracting traffic, but it also dissuaded a large number of readers. It made bystanders wonder if Zhongdian Chinese Network was a scammer website that operated behind the scenes and specialized in promoting rubbish books.
From this point of view, this could be considered a great merit.
Thus, Pei Qian did not bother about this matter.
But now, why was he suddenly targeted by Teacher Qiao?
Pei Qian felt his heart in his throat as he hurriedly continued reading.
