Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 279: What Are You Staring At? Pass the Food!
"Alright, dear viewers, welco to the live broadcast of Wang Laoju’s #¥%@#¥ show..."
Friday night at 8 PM!
Xiaopozhan livestream room, [Wang Laoju Future Technology Co., Ltd.] livestream.
Wang Laoju, sporting a bizarrely shaped face, stood in the dressing room, greeting the viewers watching the live broadcast through the mirror.
The chat barrage erupted with enthusiasm—
“This ga really should have the face customization disabled just for the chairman.”
“Chairman, can you stop looking in the mirror?”
“Shocked.”
“This face customization is honestly indescribable.”
“The chairman actually plays extre sports?”
“Hey, does it matter if he can or not? If he can’t do sports, won’t he just die?”
“True that...”
“...”
Exactly!
Just now, the "niche" extre sports ga Peak Kingdom, produced by Golden Wind Ga Company and known as a copyright fanatic, finally launched on schedule amid massive anticipation!
The reason for putting “niche” in quotation marks is because this ga, which has a niche the, is actually the hottest item in the gaming livestream circles both dostically and abroad!
Undoubtedly, this kind of copyright bombardnt approach is mindless, but as long as the copyright power is strong enough, the effect is explosive.
From China, to Neon, then Europe, and the United States!
Strears on major livestream platforms started pre-loading early and purchased the ga the mont it unlocked!
Laoju was one of them!
He had a lot of expectations for this ga.
Whether it was the thrill of wingsuit flying soaring through the sky, the freedom of gliding on snowboards through the white snow, or riding a mountain bike for a downhill mountain race, the feeling of pushing limits was very attractive to him.
He even prepared a brand-new livestream format specifically to introduce this ga—
“Alright, dear viewers, welco to our Future Technology Company’s annual product launch conference.”
“Today, we’re presenting a series of extre sports products newly developed by Future Technology.”
“As everyone knows, when our bodies experience impact or pressure, it’s because force acts upon us.”
“And our Future Technology sports products will, in such cases, automatically generate a corresponding gay force.”
“Helping you ‘gay hold’ to avoid so damage...”
Yes.
Laoju actually turned the ga livestream into a product launch.
He acted as both CEO and tester, showcasing the “products” to the audience.
Hearing Wang Laoju’s nonsense, the chat barrage exploded with laughter—
“Hahaha, the divine gay force.”
“To reduce fall and impact damage for gaplay, the chairman turned it into a new gay force product, truly the king of stories.”
“But honestly, the product’s technical na really sounds pretty gay.”
“Chairman is aweso.”
“Which excellent employee ca up with this masterpiece?”
“Shocked, the chairman personally tested it.”
“Probably the chairman himself designed the product (dog head).”
“Laughing to death...”
“...”
After the abstract face customization segnt, Laoju officially began his extre journey.
With the UI summoned, a huge world map appeared before him, densely marked with various global scenic spots and competition zones.
All kinds of events and locations dazzled the eye.
Among them—
“The event that best showcases our Future Technology’s product level is definitely this [Bicycle - Mountain Descent Race].”
Wang Laoju declared with conviction.
Actually, before the ga’s release, he had already noticed this sowhat niche but extrely deadly event, arguably the extre sport of extre sports.
DH, downhill mountain biking, or called mountain descent sport.
An extre mountain biking sport focused on downhill and large drops, different from everyday commuting mountain bikes, these bikes usually have exaggerated dual front forks, extrely strong fras, and overall lightweight bodies.
Due to venue constraints, it’s usually tid individually.
Laoju had seen videos of this sport before; if he weren’t afraid of death, he really wanted to try this life-or-death sport that contemplates the true aning of life.
And now, Peak Kingdom was here.
No need to actually die, yet experience the thrill of mountain descent.
While speaking, Laoju selected a D-level downhill map located in Utah on the map.
Because in the ga, various competitions and challenge maps are not fully unlocked.
Players need to gradually get familiar with the controls, adapt to the nearly fully realistic challenges in the motion-sensing pod, and accumulate trophies to unlock higher-level maps step by step.
So Laoju could only start from the beginner D-level map.
However, map selection had exceptions.
For example, the [Peak Eight Events] challenge.
That real-world-based Peak Eight Events challenge could be chosen by beginners or even real extre sports athletes right from the start of the ga.
Still, Laoju was not that reckless yet.
After all, dying once in Peak Eight ant you couldn’t participate again for a while.
Very soon.
Laoju quickly traveled to Utah, United States.
Whoosh—!!!
With the wind howling, gravel scraped past outside Laoju’s helt, making rustling sounds. The dusty valley wind sneaked into his nose through the helt.
A huge flag with the GW logo flapped fiercely.
Laoju opened his eyes and saw himself riding a bizarrely styled mountain bike, his ID — Future Technology Wang Laoju — printed on the bike’s side.
Looking around, the surroundings were desolate and rugged earth brown. The peak he was on should be the highest nearby elevation.
His footsteps and bike wheels crushed the ground, making a rustling sound.
The top-tier ga graphics were almost indistinguishable from reality.
The imrsive full-sensory technology made every blade of grass, every particle of dust, even the scent of wind and sand incredibly lifelike.
Around him, layers of spectators cheered, AI viewers shouting excitedly in various ways.
Laoju twisted the handlebars left and right, pinching the brake carefully.
Very detailed.
Whether it was the texture of stones and gravel rubbing under the tires transmitted through the handlebars or the friction and reaction force when braking, everything was so realistic that if he turned off the in-ga HUD, he might really lose the boundary between ga and reality.
Perhaps this was the fundantal reason Golden Wind didn’t allow players to turn off the HUD.
Thinking of this, Laoju took a deep breath and pedaled the mountain bike slowly toward the starting line:
“Alright, dear viewers, through Future Technology’s space-ti teleportation technology, we have arrived at the Utah test site.”
“As you can see, the enthusiastic rabble... the audience attending the launch is still quite large, damn it!”
The mont he reached the starting point, Laoju’s voice suddenly cut off!
What he saw was—
The track was incredibly narrow, only wide enough for one person.
After less than twenty ters of starting track, there was a cliff.
A drop of several ters led to a winding, twisting cliffside track.
Looking further ahead!
To the right was a rugged cliff, to the left a sheer cliff with a drop of two hundred ters.
That wasn’t the scariest part.
The most terrifying was the following track, almost entirely slanted paths with an angle close to 40 degrees!
That ant he needed to hug the cliff tightly, shifting his center carefully, all while constantly praying the mountain bike’s grip wouldn’t betray him!
After this terrifying slant track ca a canyon fissure!
About five ters long, he needed to jump from a curved ramp, fly through the air over the canyon fissure, and finally reach the foot of the mountain.
“Ah?”
In an instant, Laoju’s mind went blank, even forgetting he was hosting a “launch conference.”
Wait?
This thing... you call this a mountain descent race?
It didn’t quite match what he understood before.
From videos he’d seen, mountain descent riding usually followed a very narrow ridge down toward the mountain foot.
Even that was already full of dangers enough to make your heart race!
But this track...
Even had a cliff jump segnt?
Laoju was stunned for a mont.
The chat barrage was also full of exclamations—
“Chairman’s hesitation.”
“Holy crap! This track is way too exaggerated!”
“Ah—?”
“No way, such a narrow path and even a jump in the middle?”
“Damn... just looking at it makes my palms sweat.”
“Wow, the UI shows a 238-ter drop; falling would leave you bruised and battered, for sure.”
“Here and there bruises...”
“You poke, I poke...”
“Hahaha damn, just fast-forward to the action, huh?”
“Even Future Technology can’t ‘gay hold’ this one...”
“...”
Frozen for a full three seconds!
The audience watched as the chairman’s heart rate rocketed to 110, but he still forced himself to speak calmly:
“Good! Very good! Now I see so people questioning whether our product can ‘gay hold’ this track.”
“Next, I, as the chairman of Future Technology, will fully demonstrate the extre limit of our company’s product’s gay force!”
Saying that!
Laoju took a deep breath.
Then, gripping the handlebars tightly, he lightly pushed the pedal.
Shara—!!!
With the tires kicking up dust, though he only pedaled lightly, the huge steep slope instantly gave him a strong boost!
The vibrations of the road transmitted beneath his feet, the whooshing wind noise blasted in his ears!
The scattered gravel and rocks flew around, and the rapidly passing track made his heart race!
Moreover.
Even scarier.
The mont he dashed out of the track, a weightless feeling nearly indistinguishable from reality hit him!
“Holy crap—!!!”
Laoju was truly shocked!
As a strear with considerable knowledge of ga production, he knew how difficult it was to simulate such realistic weightlessness in a motion-sensing pod.
Not to exaggerate, even Golden Wind’s APEX and PUBG, among all gas worldwide, had no title that could depict adrenaline-inducing weightlessness so vividly!
Swish!!!
With the whistling wind in his ears, he instantly passed the first twenty ters of the starting track!
Then!
Air—
Laoju’s body soared into the air, the cliffside scenery rapidly flashing by. The stronger weightless falling sensation made his adrenaline surge!
The temporary freedom from gravity even gave Laoju a brain-oxygen-deprived euphoria.
“Oh oh oh—holy crap—”
Thump!!!
The bike landed heavily on the next track section, kicking up thick dust!
The huge shock numbed Laoju’s legs.
With a screech, the wheel slightly skewed, scattering gravel and soil that tumbled down the cliff below!
But, with the precise motion assist system’s help, Laoju’s eyes and hands moved quickly, his whole body tensed, and just as the bike was about to lose balance, he stabilized himself and firmly gripped the handlebars!
“RUA—!!!”
“Gay hold!!!”
Whoosh whoosh!
Amidst the rolling dust clouds, Laoju sped away like a shooting star!
The next second, the livestream exploded, and the staff all scread in unison—
“OHHHHHHHH—!!!”
“Chairman is aweso!”
“Damn! Truly Future Technology! Gay hold! Chairman gay held it!”
“Aweso! Future Technology is aweso!”
“Chairman of the year!”
“Damn, this ga looks insanely fun!”
“Just watching gives goosebumps.”
“To be honest, my legs are even a bit weak...”
“So that’s what a mountain descent race is—real mountain descent!”
“Hard to imagine anyone dares to play this in real life...”
“Trivia: those who dare are all rich guys because average people can’t afford the high-end gear.”
“Crazy risky.”
“Damn, I can’t stand it, I want to gay hold too.”
“Red chicken...”
In-ga, AI spectators standing on the cliffside waved flags and cheered!
Outside the ga, chat viewers scread nonstop in the livestream room!
The adrenaline surge almost overwheld Laoju’s mind. The blurred line between life and death didn’t scare him; instead, it ignited a strange, passionate heat within!
Swish—!
With flying gravel, the bike rushed forward again!
Laoju struggled to control the angle, hugging the cliffside tightly while staring fiercely at the cliff edge ahead!
However!
Just as he was about to reach the cliff’s end!
The miraculous motion assist system activated again.
A technically demanding but not extre 360-degree backflip, deadly dangerous here, flowed through him like second nature, instantly enlightening Laoju!
All movent essentials, precautions, power points, even subtle adjustnts, felt innate!
This was Golden Wind’s advanced motion assist technology— the world’s most cutting-edge motion-sensing pod movent application.
And now!
A choice lay before Laoju—
No flip?
Safely pass, land smoothly, reach the finish line, but no trophy.
Flip?
Extrely dangerous, could crash fatally, highly probable, but at least earn a bronze trophy!
Huff—!!!
No ti to think!
The mountain bike, kicking up swirling dust, suddenly leapt off the slope!
The next mont!
Laoju leaned back!
Both hands gripped the handlebars tightly, his body tilted backward, maintaining full body tension, raising the front wheel high, pressing the rear wheel down—
At this mont, ti seed to slow down.
“Chairman is about to...”
“Heavens...”
“Backflip with rotation...”
“This is insane...”
“Go for it!”
“Pedal-pushing big brother!”
“Maybe the chairman will really create sothing...”
Whoosh!
Bang!
Clap!
The mountain bike crashed onto the ground, bounced up, rolled along the cliffside, kicking up a cloud of dust!
Parts scattered everywhere, and Laoju’s head slamd hard against the other side of the cliff!
A crisp crack!
The sound of a broken neck bone pierced the ears!
The screen instantly turned black and white, and Laoju rolled out like a broken puppet, tumbling all the way down the cliff.
Silence.
A deathly silence.
All the viewers felt their scalps tingle, mouths involuntarily parted, pupils dilated, palms soaked with sweat!
After a long, long ti!
One red chat ssage slowly floated across the screen—
[What are you all staring at? Pass the food!]
