While the adjustnts led by Hayakawa Uenjin were progressing rapidly, Takayuki was preparing to release the second ga he was focusing on this year.
Civilization.
In Takayuki's original world, this ga was called Sid ier's Civilization.
Sid ier is the na of the creator of the Civilization series.
Being able to na a ga after oneself is a unique style of this individual.
Takayuki had considered whether to do the sa, but he figured many people would find it hard to understand why he suddenly added the na "Sid ier."
Blindly copying the na "Sid ier" would not be playing with a joke, it would easily confuse people and create unnecessary questions about who Sid ier was, causing unwanted trouble.
So, Takayuki quietly thanked the creator of the Civilization series in his heart.
Now, he would let the series shine in this world.

When the technical demo for Titanfall was released, the first trailer for Civilization was also unveiled.
At that ti, many players beca very interested in the trailer.
Later, Takayuki gradually revealed the gaplay and so of the ga's settings.
The gaplay, to put it accurately, was classified as a 4X ga.
The term "4X" refers to four key actions in English: Explore, Expand, Exploit, Exterminate.
When the full gaplay of the ga was released, it was no surprise that it received unanimous praise from simulation and managent ga enthusiasts.
A ga that simulates managing human civilization on such a large scale was a groundbreaking new creation, and just thinking about it felt incredibly cool.
Building a civilization from scratch and gradually developing it into a modern civilization imdiately felt grand, definitely worth playing.
Civilization was scheduled for release in August, and during this period, third-party ga developers associated with Gastar Electronic Entertainnt were also gradually releasing their own ga products. One reason for this was to avoid ga conflicts and prevent sales from being hindered.
One had to look out for their own, after all; it wouldn't be wise to only focus on one's own sales and risk alienating others.
August was a perfect window period and also one of the hottest months of the year. Most people didn't want to leave the comfort of air-conditioned rooms, so indoor entertainnt naturally beca their best option.
At this ti, the ga's sales would likely see a noticeable increase.
"Hurry up! If we're any slower, we'll miss the release of Civilization! I took half a day off today just to buy this, and this ti I'm definitely getting the signed edition from the creators!"
Two n, dressed in suits with briefcases in hand, were sprinting through the bustling streets of Akihabara.
At this mont, they were pushing themselves to the limit, like mad dogs.
It was only 7 a.m., well before their work hours, and Akihabara was not where they worked, but they were there for one purpose: to buy the soon-to-be-released Civilization ga.
They were loyal simulation and managent ga fans, and how could they miss a simulation ga released by Gastar Electronic Entertainnt?
Online shopping had now beco a very popular shopping thod, gradually replacing traditional offline shopping, leading to the slow decline of many physical stores.
Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's store was one of the few physical ga stores that managed to make significant profits.
The main reason for this profitability was that whenever a new ga was released, the ga developnt team would co to the official Akihabara store for a signing event, just like a book signing event.
Anyone with a slight belief in video gas would never miss the chance to get close to the creators of the ga.
To players, the creators were like deities, even requiring worship.
When the two n arrived at Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's official store in Akihabara, there was already a long line, with at least two hundred people in line.
"Phew, thank goodness! There are only a couple of hundred people. We should still be able to get Civilization this morning."
Seeing the line, the two n breathed a sigh of relief. The run was definitely worth it.
"Hey, you guys are here to buy Civilization too?"
A young man, probably in his early twenties, turned around and casually greeted the two n.
"Uncle? We're not that much older than you, right?"
The two n were slightly speechless, but still nodded in response: "Yeah, looks like you're here for it too?"
The young man happily nodded, "Yep, I'm Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's most loyal player. I've been playing their gas since I was seven or eight. I've played almost all their first-party gas!"
"Played all of them?" The two n were surprised.
This young man was probably Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's most loyal fan, or rather, a die-hard fan.
Just this one person had probably contributed so much revenue to Gastar Electronic Entertainnt.
"Hey, can I ask which version of Civilization you're planning to buy?"
The two n answered in unison: "Of course, the PC version. It's the most convenient platform for us."
"Oh, I was thinking the sa. I heard the ga will have online multiplayer. Why don't we add each other on Battle and play the ga together later?"
"Online multiplayer? I didn't notice that before."
The two n thought, since it's multiplayer, more people would be fun, so they exchanged Battle usernas and agreed to play together later.
During this conversation, the young man continued to talk about various gas he'd played. He could talk about each one with great detail, as if there were no ga he wasn't familiar with.
For the two n, they didn't have much ti to play gas usually, so whenever they had a chance, they cherished it.
Since the young man was excitedly talking about every ga he had played, the two n were happy to listen.
If any ga interested them, they would consider playing it when they had ti.
Ti passed quickly, and soon it was ti for the store to open. The line beca a bit restless, but with good security, everyone entered the store in an orderly fashion to prepare to buy the latest Civilization ga.
