Halfway there, Mo Li suddenly thought of something:
"Oh right, shouldn't the first part of our Genshin Impact Lunar New Year event be updated soon?"
Bronya rolled her eyes at him.
"What an incompetent boss, always urging us to rest..."
"If we really go on holiday and the update isn't on time, the players might really come after you with knives."
Mo Li gave an awkward smile: "It's precisely because you guys are here that I forgot~"
Bronya may complain, but...
But they were well aware of Mo Li's concern for them.
However, the more Mo Li told her to rest, the more she wanted to work a little longer...
It's not about being rebellious or anything.
She was somewhat addicted to the feeling of being cared for.
Although this idea is a bit naive... making games is indeed her hobby.
It'll make people pay more attention to you, killing two birds with one stone...
Chapter 174 shows some improvement, but not much...
At this moment, the girls had all gathered together and opened the live stream room arranged by Tencent.
A group of women gathered around a computer.
The taller one squatted down, while the shorter one stood on tiptoe, their little heads craning forward, looking adorable.
Wow! More than 800 million people are watching?!
"Hehe~ That's about a third of Eden's population~ But Eden's little angel is much cuter than this female celebrity~"
"There probably aren't that many people; they must have created a lot of fake numbers."
"This live streaming platform belongs to Tencent; they can add as many viewers as they want."
"However, this time, Tencent's new game seems to have improved a lot."
"They also created a character with an ancient Chinese background..."
……
Listening to the girls' discussion, Mo Li's curiosity was instantly piqued.
Although he has little confidence in Tencent's new game.
But the novelty still piqued his strong interest.
"Hi~ Boss Mo Li is here too~"
Alicia was the first to see Mo Li and quickly waved to him in greeting.
The girls who were gathered around also turned their heads to look over, and then they all kindly made room for Mo Li.
"Boss, the new game from Tencent seems to be of really high quality!"
"Our 26 competitors to Genshin Impact are here, are you nervous?"
Mo Li smiled:
"What's there to be nervous about? Genshin Impact's reputation is already established. Those who like it will naturally continue playing, and those who don't are perfectly normal to play other games."
"Furthermore, if Penguin can actually create a high-quality product, I would be happy about it."
After hearing Mo Li's words, Hu Tao immediately gave him a thumbs up: "Great job!"
At that moment, the female celebrity's voice could be heard in the live stream.
"Family~"
"This game is adapted from the famous Japanese anime 'Demon King and Warriors'."
"It's said that it cost 2 small goals to develop, with multi-platform compatibility and an open world..."
"Everyone has seen the famous anime 'Demon King and Warriors,' right?"
"The character I'm controlling right now is Tira, the protagonist of 'Demon King and Warriors,' and her skills are so cool! Opening a treasure chest!"
In the video, the female celebrity excitedly opens the treasure chest, her tone revealing a strong sense of surprise...
But... it looked so fake...
At least, to outsiders, it looks pretty fake.
Because of the existence of Genshin Impact, this kind of open-world treasure chest gameplay has long lost the amazing feeling it had at the beginning.
Anyone with a keen eye could tell that this woman didn't actually enjoy playing games, but she forced herself to continue for the sake of the advertisement.
After all, they are actors; they've entered work mode and the performance has begun...
However, most viewers don't really care about the female celebrity; what they care about is the highlights of the game.
But the female celebrity was clearly a complete novice at the game, and her progress was incredibly slow...
What the heck... I feel like Xiaoyu's acting is way too much...
[Upstairs, you're right, it does seem a bit fake, but it's understandable~]
I understand, it's about making a living... it's not shameful~
[It's so boring to watch... The scenery is alright, but the rendering technology is still a bit disappointing.]
[Maybe I've been seeing too much of the soft art style of Genshin Impact, but this more rugged style looks pretty good too.]
[It appears that the quality has barely met the standards so far.]
Indeed, but I still choose Genshin Impact...
[If this game from Tencent hadn't existed yet, I would absolutely rave about it!]
[Fine, I won't curse this time. Let's give the penguin some face.]
……
The barrage of comments was in full swing.
There are fans of that female celebrity named Xiaoyu who are praising her wildly.
Many real gamers are also discussing the quality of "Demon King Warriors".
Although the female celebrity was a complete novice when it came to games and progressed very slowly, Mo Li managed to get a general understanding of the game after watching for a while.
The game is similar to Genshin Impact, but with some new elements...
Well, that's not quite right. It still has a strong penguin vibe...
For example, leaderboards, teams, guilds, and so on.
Of course, there's also a world chat feature.
Terms like "CPDD" are frequently appearing on the trending list.
Meanwhile, the topic of Genshin Impact vs. Demon King Warriors has begun to frequently appear online.
It's obvious that this was something Tencent deliberately created to capitalize on the hype.
Mo Li didn't care, but the players had already started arguing with the online trolls.
Although players often say something like—
Defeat Genshin Impact, and the Demon King will live forever.
[A chance to win a five-star rating]
...such words.
But if someone is deliberately trying to smear them, players are still willing to defend them.
Moreover, it's obvious to anyone with a discerning eye that the two games are different.
Although "Demon King Warriors" also boasts an open-world theme, it is actually quite different from "Genshin Impact".
What players find most objectionable is that... the anime background of "Demon King Warriors" is pure Western fantasy.
After being adapted by Penguin, some elements of the Chinese nation were added to the story's background.
This was originally a commendable good deed.
However, perhaps Penguin went too far, resulting in this adaptation appearing extremely abrupt, and the art style was somewhat fragmented.
Originally, it would be a good thing if the gaming industry could promote Chinese culture more.
However, Penguin's method of adaptation seems rather incongruous.
The intention to curry favor with Chinese players is all too obvious.
Anyone who isn't an idiot can see that...
