Chapter 226: Chapter 221 Player Benefits
Having ten thousand places implies ten thousand players. Since each player can bring along two family members, that means thirty thousand people. If everyone is included, a luxurious nine-day trip to the Malya Kingdom would cost each player almost 10,000 Flame Nation coins. This would mean the company would have to spend 300 million Flame Nation coins. Could this be called spending just a little money?
What would be considered a large amount then? WY is a gaming company, how much do we usually make per month for a game? However, if Finn Lewis decides on something, Yuri Johnson has learned that it’s impossible to deny. Therefore, after triple-confirming, Yuri reluctantly agreed to it with a wry smile.
“By the way, let the company start booking hotels in a bit; let’s schedule for three months from now. That would be around November when the peak season in the Malya Kingdom is over. This would be like our company’s carnival. To become a successful game company, the players’ carnival must be successful. Take a look at Blizzard; why do players all over the world adore the Blizzard carnival? If we want to become a company like Blizzard, we must treat our players as our bread and butter; to think from the perspective of our players.” Finn shrugged as he spoke.
“Becoming a company like Blizzard is also pretty simple.” Yuri, being a bit speechless, could not help but mutter.
“Really? Any ideas?” Finn asked, taken aback.
“Just buy out Blizzard.” Yuri shrugged.
“Hm, do you think that would benefit us?” Finn thought for a moment before probing.
Yuri blinked, “Director Lewis, you aren’t really considering buying Blizzard, right?”
“Why not? I didn’t buy Blizzard before because I didn’t think it would be of much use to us, given that WY could potentially become a gaming company like Blizzard. But since you said it’s useful, then let’s just buy it.” Finn replied with a counter-question.
Yun• : Yuri was utterly lost for words. He suddenly felt like he was just not on the same wavelength as Finn. Bloody hell, how was he supposed to engage in a pleasant conversation? Was it simply his harmless remark that led to this? Was it that straightforward to decide to buy? This… Yuri suddenly felt like he was a really poor man. A poor man worth fifty billion Federal coins?
“I think I’ll go and handle the tasks you assigned, Director Lewis.” Yuri decided he couldn’t chat with Finn any longer. The conversation was just too unsettling. Could it not be like this? Yuri always regarded himself as a successful man. But ever since he met Finn, Yuri felt as if he was just a bumpkin. Has he seriously become too old? He was only forty-four years old. Was he already out of touch with the times?
Ever since the press conference, NW’s “World” attracted the attention of almost all gaming companies worldwide, Blizzard included. An engine’s quality, although not everything, is undeniably an integral part of a game’s appeal. And its visual quality highly influences today’s gamers.
Monster World was pretty popular, right? But even with the highly receptive Federal players, many complained about the ugliness of the characters. If it weren’t for the cool and elaborate weapon designs in Monster World, the complaints over its overall design would probably be vastly amplified.
So when WY announced during the press conference that the game would only need about a month for public beta testing, most gaming companies didn’t believe it. They saw NW’s announcement as a publicity stunt. Since when can a game be launched for public testing just after a month of its reveal?
Of course, these gaming companies could not fathom how much a player like Finn despised those endless tests. For the love of God, don’t make the game if you can’t even develop it properly! As a player, it’s annoying that as soon as the framework of a game is set, it’s already being tested, with various trials that treat players like fools.
As if that’s not enough, they even open the shop during these tests, encouraging players to make in-game purchases. It’s just unbearable. Therefore, Finn decided to go public as soon as possible.
However, to these other game companies, WY had always been a big player in the domestic market and is now an even bigger player internationally. Even when foreign companies caught a glimpse of this game, they had a strange sensation of the wolf being at the doorstep.
Originally, the games that were preparing for public testing on 17173, or other kinds of tests, either postponed their trials or advanced them directly after IVY announced their test schedules. Now, there are no new games being tested within a ten-day span—only “World” remains.
Of course, these game companies were all waiting for I,VY to make a mistake. Once a slip-up is made, they would attack without reservation. Still, while waiting for to mess up, they probably swore at the company hundreds of times. Damn it, wouldn’t it be better if your game launched a few years later? Everyone is rushing to release new games and reap direct profits, isn’t that better?
A company like Blizzard, what’s so great about it? Yes, Blizzard made money out of Monster World, but do you think these domestic companies want to be like Blizzard? No, they don’t. Strictly speaking, they earn no less than Blizzard. Blizzard may make more, but consider the cost and time to develop a game like Monster World. Some of these companies can create two games a year, and each game can be developed with just a few million.
As long as they start charging, they can rake in a huge amount of money. If no one plays, they can simply shut down the server, repackage the same game under a different name and launch it again. After all, the market only offers so many games, and players have limited choices. Isn’t it nice when everyone tacitly agrees to go along with this?
Who the hell knew a tycoon like WY would come along? Of course, they mostly cursed not IAN, but this goddamned tycoon. Couldn’t you just play the game, maybe splash some cash on gear if you weren’t satisfied? Even if you bought the best gear for your character, how much could it cost? Who the hell buys an entire game company with money?
Okay, you said it was for Kay Lee. But for a celebrity, you could’ve bought any company to ask her for endorsements. Why did you insist on buying a gaming company? Not only did you ask for endorsements, but you also had to introduce this kind of game like WY’s? And at a nuclear level, isn’t this breaking the rules?
All this mess caused by WY only started after Finn Lewis bought WY. If you think there’s no link to Finn, do you think these game company bosses will believe it? Although they grumbled sourly about it, it was the classic case of sour grapes.
Everyone was waiting. As long as WY’s new game was all about graphics and lacked content, they would have a chance to attack. Besides, for players, it’s hard to abandon an old game that they’ve played for a long time. There are many friends in the game, and switching to a new game is extremely difficult.
Thus, the online rates of all major game companies recently plummeted. But they weren’t too worried. As long as players played WY’s new game for a few days, they would come back. This happened before. But unexpectedly, before WY’s new game went into public testing, they received news that one could say was a bolt from the blue!
“As a responsible gaming company, players are the foundation of our company. To reward players, we will officially launch a new leveling-up event for the new game, ‘World’! The first 10,000 players at full level across all servers will get a luxurious nine-day Malya Kingdom tour sponsored by WY! Each player can bring two family members. At that time, all IVY players will come together, and host their own WY carnival in Malya Kingdom!”

“…All expenses for this event will be provided by WVY’s new chairman personally. We can now tell all our players that in this event, all our accommodation, food and transport will be of the finest quality, with all hotels being five-star hotels. The top 100 players will get to stay in genuine beachfront villas…
“And events like this carnival, we will host one every year.”
After reading this announcement, these game companies were all dumbfounded. Are you serious?! Isn’t this blatantly breaking the game rules? If you pull tricks like this, how are we supposed to host player events in the future?
Could you please stop being so prodigal? Even offering such an event to the top 100 players on all servers would be considered an extravagant act. But you’re giving it to the top ten thousand? And they can each bring two family members? How much money can you make from a game company? You’re just throwing out a few hundred million like it’s nothing. Is that really okay?
Moreover…you’re putting them all in five-star hotels. What the hell are you up to? Some companies have practically gone insane. Usually when they host an event and give away a few phones, the players are already thrilled. Compared to IVY’s new chairman’s generosity, what are they? Playing house? Who’s going to give a damn about them giving away phones and computers in the future? The bosses of these gaming companies wanted to cry but had no tears to shed..
