Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 343: 996? 627!
Actually, as professional ga strears, dostic strears like Ayin and international ones like Pew and Hideki usually have high sensitivity towards gas.
Making this their profession, they may not know every single released ga inside out.
But at the very least, when well-known dostic companies like the XunTeng and Yiyou systems, or international giants like Kora and CloudPower release gas, they're basically among the first to know and pay attention.
Although Golden Wind isn't a major ga developer currently, in terms of reputation, it's definitely comparable to those big companies.
So logically, Ayin should almost certainly know about Golden Wind's ga releases,
but with this "Stardew Valley"...
Ayin checked the ga's detailed information and found it really was produced by Golden Wind, feeling slightly surprised:
"Damn, it really is Little Yellow's ga, I thought it was just using their na."
Just as Gu Sheng had predicted.
Stardew Valley was so niche that even top dostic strears knew nothing about it.
After understanding the reasons, Ayin couldn't help but have a sudden realization.
"Oh—ah—no wonder I hadn't heard anything about it,"
Ayin said with a mix of amusent and exasperation:
"This is part of Yiyou's small ga overseas promotion event this year, so the marketing was already relatively light, plus it perfectly collided with Golden Wind's own Resident Evil 7,"
"No wonder I hadn't even heard of it."
As soon as he said this, the viewers also found it quite amusing—
"? Kill ?"
"Correct answer! Do it then..."
Little Yellow: re CloudPower and Kora aren't even as challenging as fighting myself
"Hahahahaha true, previously Kora and CloudPower's blockades didn't stop a single ga from Butter, yet the first ga whose promotion got blocked was actually by Little Yellow himself"
"But probably Old Thief didn't pay much attention to this ga back then?
Normal, how much could this small ga cost, Resident Evil 7 is the main focus after all
The key is Resident Evil 7 basically consud all the marketing resources, poor Stardew Valley didn't even get a chance to breathe
"Stardew Valley: Bro, save so for if you can't finish? Resident Evil 7: I can't save a fucking bit!"
"Hahahahahaha damn..."
...
As the viewers discussed, Ayin finished downloading the ga,
after all, it was just a small PC ga, only over 600MB, downloaded instantly.
The ga opened, greeted by a pixelated Golden Wind logo.
Then, electronically synthesized gentle piano sounds ca like a breeze, soft and lodious flute notes seed to carry the fragrance of golden wheat fields, as if lifting one's soul.
The emotions conveyed by music know no borders.
The pure feelings brought by instruntal music were like crystal, even sowhat moving.
Mixed emotions gathered together, montarily making Ayin sowhat dazed:
"...Wow, this soundtrack is really... really quite nice."
It seed to have so magic that made people rember childhood.
As he spoke, under the pure pixelated azure sky, a wooden sign dotted with sprouts slowly rose—
[Stardew Valley]
[Golden Wind]
[Proudly Presents]
Below the large wooden sign, three small signs were neatly arranged—
[New Ga][Load][Exit]
Clean and simple.
No difficulty adjustnts, no DLC, not even ga settings were condensed in the bottom right corner of the screen.
"Another pixel-style small ga, nice nice nice..."
Although the ga hadn't started yet, the opening art style already won Ayin's favor.
As everyone knew, the quality of Golden Wind's pixel small gas was considered top among tops.
"Vampire Survivors" and "To the Moon", one was the pinnacle of gaplay, the other was a masterpiece with perfect scores across all dia for its story.
Ayin really liked pixel-style Butter gas.
But whether it could reach the levels of Vampire Survivors and To the Moon remained to be seen:
"Co on! Let's—start the ga!"
Click!
As Ayin clicked the mouse, the ga began. After naming his farm [CSTG Farm] and simply creating a black-bearded Zhang Fei character, the ga officially started.
Flickering stove fire with pixel flas slowly swayed.
On a dark blue small bed, a white-haired old man who looked like Santa Claus lay peacefully, holding a letter in his hand, subtitles slowly scrolling below—
This letter is for my most special grandson, be sure to keep it safe, but don't open it yet, be patient.
Listen, when you feel overwheld by the burdens of real life, when your spirit fades before emptiness, if that day cos, then my dear grandson, you can open this gift...
Then, the scene changed—
Dense cubicles stood everywhere, under the surveillance of omnidirectional caras, the tense working figures dared not slack off in the slightest, like tightly wound chanical toys, working nonstop in narrow cubicles.
The oppressive and cold atmosphere was lifeless, like a sunless prison.
In front of all the cubicles, on an exaggeratedly tall iron wall, was engraved the company's na.
[KomiVendi]
KomiVendi.
"Pfft hahahaha damn! This na is too aweso..."
Ayin burst out laughing as soon as he saw it.
The chat barrage also erupted in laughter—
"What kind of ultimate evil thing from another world is this?"
"A combination of Kora and Vivendi, right? Evil bastards united!"
"So savage, Old Thief's sarcasm this ti?"
"So company nas just scream big villain as soon as they appear"
"Good thing XunTeng has good relations with Golden Wind now, if this were a few years back, the villain na would probably be [TengXun] (dog head)"
"Good good good, if you're making gas like this then I'm buying, executing justice against the two big evils of east and west hemispheres"
"Laughing to death, Old Thief is really too an..."
Clickety-clack sounds continued incessantly.
In the narrow cubicle, pixelated Ayin sighed deeply, clearly overwheld by the burden of work.
However, as he opened the drawer looking for a stapler, the letter his grandfather left him years ago when he passed away ca into view.
Swish—
The letter opened
[Dear Ayin]
Child, when you open this letter, you must be desperately craving change.
Long ago, I had the sa confusion as you, we're busy with work, busy with life, busy rushing about, to the point of losing ourselves in this concrete jungle.
But fortunately, I found a place, a place where my soul could rest, that was my true belonging.
This letter includes the deed to that place, a place that filled with pride and joy: CSTG Farm.
It's located in Stardew Valley in the southern suburbs of Golden City.
This is my most precious gift, now I give it to you, I believe you too can find peace for your soul here.
[—Love, Grandpa]
[PS: If Lewis is still alive, say hello to that old fellow for ]
Screech—!
With the sound of the bus stopping and doors opening.
Ayin got off the car, where an orange-haired woman at the bus stop seed to be there to greet him:
"Hey, you must be Ayin? I'm Robin, the local carpenter, Mayor Lewis asked to pick you up, let's go~"
Soon, following Robin's lead, a sowhat desolate-looking small yard overgrown with weeds and rubble appeared on screen.
North of the small yard stood a small orange-red house with a pointed roof.
During so small talk, Ayin learned that his CSTG Farm was adjacent to Pelican Town, and if he wanted to upgrade his house later, he could find Robin. The mayor also suggested visiting the town tomorrow to et the neighbors, as everyone was curious about him.
The ga progressed to this point!
Ayin could still sowhat understand.
But next, he started to feel confused.
Because after so small talk, the mayor and Robin left.
Left!
Left?
Huh?
Ayin stood dumbfounded in front of the small house, completely bewildered:
"Wait... then what? What should I do now? Where's my main quest?"
Ayin was stunned.
Originally, he thought the KomiVendi introduced at the beginning would deliver an opening shock intending to destroy the world, while Stardew Valley would be like so mysterious sanctuary where he could learn magic from the mayor or sothing, then build up strength to defeat the bad guys and ultimately save the world.
He was already prepared for combat!
But reality was completely different!
Even after searching around, in the mysterious package in his rather simple house, he only found so... farming tools?
"This is a pickaxe, this is an axe, plus a sickle and hoe, a watering can and a few packs of seeds..."
Ayin frowned, confused as he checked his backpack:
"I don't even have a sword? So this ga wants to... farm?!"
Stepping back outside.
Ayin stood before the ssy small yard, feeling his brain was as chaotic as the yard.
As for the audience, they were even more puzzled—
"So? The player's task is to farm?"
"This ga is too weird"
"Feels like there's no task objectives at all"
"Maybe it'll be better tomorrow, didn't the mayor say for boss to visit the neighbors in town tomorrow?"
"Possibly, probably getting quests from town?"
"Probably today is just getting familiar, main story starts tomorrow..."
......
No one had ever played this kind of ga!
After a brief introduction, the NPCs just left, only leaving the protagonist with a simple set of farming tools.
Who am I? Where am I? What should I do?
The three great soul questions lingered in players' hearts, leaving them at a loss,
It seed all they could do now was go with the flow and do whatever they could
Thinking this, Ayin shrugged and picked up the sickle:
"Since we don't have anything else to do, might as well clean up the yard? Maybe it'll be useful later?"
Saying this.
Ayin swung the sickle, cutting grass.
Swish—swish—swish—
The blade cut through weeds, making light sounds.
As the sickle kept swinging, a small area in front of the house was cleared, looking sowhat tidier.
However, those ssy dry branches beca visible, quite eyesore.
So, Ayin switched to the axe, thump thump thump clearing the dry branches,
then switched to the pickaxe, clink clank clearing away the stones.
Actually originally, Ayin just wanted to tidy up a small patch of wasteland in front of the door,
but as he worked, even he and the livestream viewers didn't notice—
The cleanup work seed to be getting out of control.
After all!
"Since we're already here..."
"Might as well cut the grass over here too."
"Since we're already here..."
"Might as well break this stone too."
"Since we're already here..."
"Might as well clear this dry branch too."
"Since we're already here..."
From grass to rubble, from dry branches to small trees.
Every ti Ayin wanted to stop, new debris would appear on screen, instantly turning people into cleaning fanatics.
After all "since we're already here, it's just convenient to handle"!
Swish—thump thump thump—clink clank—
In the small farm, Ayin worked up a sweat, clearing one piece of debris after another.
The wasteland in front of the house gradually beca cleaner, neat and comfortable, OCD delight.
The chat barrage also praised—
"Boss works really ticulously?"
"Clearly has practiced a lot at ho"
"《Family Younger Brother Status》"
"Wait... although I still don't know what this ga is about, but... why does it feel so damn satisfying?"
"Hahahahaha true, so fucking absurd, feels like cleaning the yard is actually quite fun"
"I'd call this cleaning simulator"
"This is literally a ga made for OCD, not cleaning up properly feels uncomfortable...."
......
Bizarrely stress-relieving!
Clearly, this ga was very different from Golden Wind's previous gas.
Although at this point in the ga, everyone still didn't know what the ga was about, what they seed able to do was only "farming".
But!
Until the sun set in the ga!
Ayin hadn't even achieved the small goal of "farming"!
The weeds could never be fully cleared, simply impossible to clear completely!
Especially after discovering that resting in bed could restore the stamina bar, Ayin's farming tools clinked even more, with the stamina bar mainly characterized by dramatic rises and falls.
Until night fell, stars and moon rose, all sounds ceased!
Clink—clank!
As Ayin's hoe swung once more, just as the small stone before him was about to break!
Thump!
The pixelated Ayin on screen finally couldn't support himself, imdiately lay on the ground, fast asleep.
At this ti, looking at the in-ga ti—
2:30 AM.
The livestream chat barrage froze for half a second.
Then erupted in laughter—
"Hahahaha huh? It's already 2:30 AM?"
"Young people really have good health, fall asleep as soon as they lie down"
"Damn just realized, boss has been farming for a whole day?"
"You're even more badass than Qi Tongwei?"
"Hahahaha too ridiculous..."
"If I rember correctly, boss should have arrived at the farm at 6 AM, aning—"
"He worked 20 hours straight?"
"Now this is what you call fu! bao! (blessing/report)"
"Damn boss won't just die suddenly, right? That would be too damn crazy?"
"Hahahaha so absurd..."
"Wait? So why did we quit 996 again?"
"Hahaha quit 996 to experience 627 in Stardew Valley, right"
