What the Heck? It’s a Free Game?
“I heard from the producer that the game should have been officially released on Steam. You can search for it on the platform. It’s available.”
However, the viewers weren’t satisfied with Angelica’s answer.
Angelica was forced to send a message to Su Ping.
“Su Ping, can you send me the download link? I’ll post it on the screen of the live stream room in case someone can’t find it.”
“Since the name of your game can be seen quite often. I think many games have the same name as yours.”
Su Ping replied as soon as he received the message.
Soon, a link appeared on the screen of the live stream room. Netizens immediately clicked on it.
Within a minute, numerous comments appeared in the live stream room.
[What the heck? Did you send the correct link, host? Or did I enter the wrong game? Is the game free? I can download it without paying?]
[What’s going on? Is it a free game? I’m puzzled about the situation. Did the host give the wrong link?]
[Host, please check with the producer. There must be a mistake. How can such a good game be free?]
After looking at the comments, Angelica asked Su Ping for confirmation. In the end, she got a firm answer.
Then, Angelica took a deep breath and spoke as calmly as she could in the live stream room.
“Everyone, as you can see on Steam, Zombie Apocalypse is indeed a free game!”
“Just now, the game producer told me he made the game free to promote the game easily. The follow-up plot should be free too.”
As soon as Angelica finished her words, the comment section was in chaos again. The comment section has been chaotic throughout the entire live stream.
[Fuck! It’s really free! I have to download it immediately in case the producer regrets his decision!]
[The game is definitely the conscience of the game industry. It’s unreasonable if the game remains unknown!]
[I never thought that I’d be able to play such a good game in my lifetime. Thank you so much, dear producer!]
Netizens were expressing their gratitude in the live-streaming room’s comment section. The gaming industry here was too corrupt and least developed.
The major game development companies didn’t intend to improve their games. Players could only play games released years ago with such advanced VR equipment.
Worldwide gamers were deeply affected by the least-developed gaming industry. They were touched and excited when they could suddenly play such a thrilling game.
Angelica felt the publicity was almost done and decided to end the live stream officially.
Suddenly, Angelica wanted to invite Su Ping for a meal and discuss his future work in person.
Although Angelica had said that she didn’t dare to play such a horrifying game in her live stream anymore, if Su Ping released Zombie Apocalypse season two, she believed she would be the first to download the game.
“Su Ping, let’s have dinner together. I want to meet you.”
Su Ping was surprised to receive the message. He thought, “A girl wants to meet me?”
Su Ping would definitely not turn down Angelica’s sincere invitation. Hence, both of them agreed on a restaurant to set off simultaneously.
Both of them met in a restaurant. Although it wasn’t Angelica’s first time meeting Su Ping, she was currently impressed by him.
The person sitting in front of Angelica was a genius game producer with great potential!
If Su Ping could maintain the quality of the following Zombie Apocalypse production, the gaming industry would have changed its structure!
While they were eating, Angelica said pitifully.
“Su Ping, your game has high quality. Players will be willing to pay even if it’s a little more expensive. Why did you make it free?”
“You’re getting the short end of the stick!”
Su Ping said with a smile.
“Haha! Actually, I’ve thought about making it a paid game. However, I’m not a famous game producer at the moment. I have to make it free for promotion.”
“Once I’d gathered a group of fans, and everyone approved the quality of my games, I can release a paid game.”
“Moreover, the Zombie Apocalypse you played today is just the game’s first season. There are still several follow-up plots!”
“If we charge for everything, it will become a substantial financial burden to the players. That’s why the game is free.”
Angelica’s eyes suddenly lit up when she heard Su Ping’s words. Then, she immediately asked.
“There are still a few more seasons? How many are there? When will I be able to play season two?”
Su Ping said with a smile when he saw Angelica excited.
“Don’t worry. It’s almost done. The response is good thanks to your publicity. I’ll continue to work with you in the release of the following series.”
“I’ll let you know as soon as possible when I’m done!”
With Su Ping’s promise, Angelica could finally put her mind at ease!
The reason Angelica invited Su Ping for dinner was to confirm that she would be the one to promote his following work.
Angelica would be melancholy if she saw other streamers play the second season of Zombie Apocalypse earlier than her.
During the night, as the popularity of Angelica’s live stream gradually increased, the popularity of Zombie Apocalypse became greater. It had become a trendy game.
Since Angelica had gone offline early, netizens were asking about the game producer’s identity.
There were even netizens who questioned the existence of the game. Even if they had seen Angelica’s live stream replay, they still insisted it was a movie!
[It’s impossible for a game to be as realistic as Zombie Apocalypse. Even the Storm Gaming Company can’t produce such high-quality games. There’s no such high-quality game as Zombie Apocalypse on Steam. It must be false publicity!]
[That’s right. Furthermore, did some claim that Zombie Apocalypse had just one producer? Are you kidding me? How can someone make such a game alone?]
[Hmph! I’ll make sure to ask Angelica directly during her live stream tomorrow. I’ll make her admit that all of this is just hype!]
The unexpected success of Zombie Apocalypse made many game development companies feel in danger. Especially Storm Gaming Company, the producer of Apocalypse Tomorrow.
The Storm Gaming Company had spent a lot of money to promote their game. However, the game’s popularity was inferior to Apocalypse Tomorrow, which an unknown producer produced.
The Storm Gaming Company couldn’t accept such a result due to their pride.
Therefore, in the evening, numerous trolling comments began to appear on the internet, which tried to smear Zombie Apocalypse with fake news.
The Storm Gaming Company wanted to destroy Zombie Apocalypse before it was too late!
