"Could it be that the Dark Group really created a rubbish game just to make money?"
This question popped up in Zhou Guangyuan's mind.
But why does the Dark Group do this?
Are they short of this little bit of money?
It seems that there is no need for this at all. Not only will you lose your good reputation, but you won't gain much benefit either.
However, including him, the vast majority of players did not have a very good gaming experience on the first day, and it could even be said to be quite bad. Most of them actually quit the game with a "starving to death" experience without gaining anything.
Many impatient players simply threw their virtual helmets aside or requested a refund.
The next day, the number of players online at the same time dropped from 18 million yesterday to 10 million, nearly halving the number of online players.
However, the content of the game has not changed much. After the players are resurrected on the spot, they find that the place they are in is still an endless prairie. There are still no buildings, NPCs, or monsters. It is as monotonous as a piece of white paper.
However, there were a few players who finally met other players on the map.
A player named "君子不立" posted on the official forum:
"Today I walked around in the game for a whole day, until my hunger level was close to the point of fainting."
"But I'm not walking aimlessly. I'm walking straight ahead in one direction. I want to confirm whether this is an online game with tens of millions of players online, or a single-player game that's deceiving players."
"Two days of walking, covering hundreds of miles in total. Just as I was about to faint and lose the ability to move, I saw a man walking up the hill in the distance. He also happened to notice me. It was a bit like a reunion scene in a TV drama. We trotted towards each other, our faces full of excitement... even though we realized we were both men when we met face to face."
"As expected, I met another player. Coincidentally, he was also using the method of walking straight to determine the size of the game map. The only difference was that I was walking east and he was walking west. Then we bumped into each other."
"...The conclusion we draw from this is that the game we're playing isn't a single-player game, but a truly large-scale online virtual reality game with tens of millions of players online simultaneously. However, the size of the game map is far greater than we could have imagined. On average, each player is allocated an area within a 50-kilometer radius. Based on the area formula, each player is allocated 7,850 square kilometers of land."
"Multiply that by ten million, and we're standing on a map that's at least the size of two hundred Blue Mercury planets, and it's a fully connected, networked map."
"This will undoubtedly consume a considerable amount of server resources. Compared to other virtual games that advertise a game map equivalent to the size of a medium-sized country, the scope is far more than an order of magnitude larger. However, just for the sake of such a vast game space, we should all explore it thoroughly."
This post has received a lot of attention.
After being pinned by the official, it received over 10 million hits and received over 1 million replies.
Many players were shocked by the vastness of the game map and planned to wait and see and explore.
But there are even more players who choose to quit the game permanently and are labeled as "trash".
So on the third day.
The number of online players in the game has dropped to around 5 million, halving again compared to yesterday.
If the situation continues to develop in this way, even though the huge map of "Construct the World" is a good highlight, due to the lack of any essential game elements, it is estimated that this virtual online game will be completely unpopular in a week at most.
After all, players' patience is limited.
But it was on the third day.
The situation has changed significantly!
A post published by a player gave a boost to the spirits of all the players who had not given up the game, and also reignited the interest of those who had given up the game.
I know how to play this game!
The player excitedly said in this post:
"I found the trick to make the game go smoothly!"
"These past few days, like all other players, I've been trying to figure out how to play this game, trying to find a way to avoid starving to death and quitting. As long as I can survive normally, this game is playable."
"Eat grass. I've tried eating the grass you can find everywhere on the ground, and I've found it really works. As long as you lower your sense of taste to the lowest setting and lie on the ground eating the grass, you can slowly eliminate your hunger points. Eating grass for about an hour can reduce your hunger points by 20, which is equivalent to having a half-full meal."
"But as my hunger bar went down, my HP started to drop. The price of reducing my hunger bar by 20 points was that my HP also dropped by 20 points... Those damn plants are poisonous."
"Eating early can prevent you from starving to death, but it will kill you instantly. It will only extend your survival time by five hours at most."
"Is this virtual online game really a rubbish game?"
"But I don't believe in evil. I don't believe the Dark Group would develop such an unplayable game to fool us players. There must be some trick in it!"
"So today, I, unwilling to believe anything, entered the game again and wandered around for over ten hours. My hunger bar dropped to 80, and my HP dropped below 30, putting me in a double negative state of weakness and fainting."
"I lay on the grass and looked at the blue sky above my head. Many hallucinations appeared in front of my eyes. It seems that I will gain nothing from today's gaming experience."
"Right at this moment!"
