377 Chapter 366: Enjoying the Excitement Regardless of the Severity_2
However, they had plenty of confidence in virtual reality technology.
The current market situation in Daxia had already proven this point – too many people who never yed games before were flocking to the embrace of virtual reality games.
The current sales boom only made them more confident.
But the experience of the yers was different. The scene that once happened in Daxia was almost exactly replicated:
yers who failed to grab a console were heartbroken, and voices of discontent were everywhere.
Voices filled with "?? (West eight)" and "バカ (Eight Gag)" filled thement section.
yers who seeded in grabbing the console began to excitedly show off their orders.
The virtual reality yer circles of Izumo and Baekje, which previously had only a few hundred members, saw a surge in activity.
The small forum section that Queenie frequented today had more new posts in just one hour than the total count from the previous two months.
Countless people posted joyfully, sharing their happiness, asking questions, and many posted recruitment posts, inviting others to form small groups and such.
All the previous posts about "Lincoln is so vicious," "Poor Dog," "The most effective strategy to avoid dog death," and so on, which were already scarce, were pushed dozens of pagester and were no longer visible.
Queenie watched it all with cold eyes, not nning to remind anyone, and even found it a bit amusing.
And it wasn''t just her. Almost all the old yers in Izumo were keeping quiet, waiting for the tragedy to happen.
After all, they were also trying to avoid spoilers and maintain the integrity of everyone''s game experience!

Thanks to Izumo''s unique poption distribution, almost one-third of the country''s poption is concentrated in the capital city cluster.
The factory jointly established by Cloud Dream and the partnerpany was also built here, making logistics very fast.
By noon, socialworks and game forums were filled with videos and posts about unboxing consoles and entering Night City.
Local live streaming tforms also began broadcasting.
Then, the streamers and audience members from Izumo and Baekje were surprised to find:
An unprecedented number ofizens with Daxia-associated usernames appeared in the live broadcasts.
Usually, their live broadcast rooms did have some audiences from Daxia, but the number was small and scattered, not even enough to count on both hands.
But now, the number of Daxia audience members seemed to be even more than the local audience.
Female streamers'' live broadcast rooms, in particr, saw a huge influx of viewers.
Among the female streamers, those with a more "gentle" personality and known as "crying bags" in the circle saw an unprecedented audience scale in their live broadcast rooms, almost reaching one million!
Anchored by Nandong, who always wore cat ear essories and was affectionately called "Kitty" by her audience, saw a constantly rising number of viewers in her live broadcast room and suddenly had an uneasy feeling.
She knew her situation well. In the past, when she yed games or watched movies, her live broadcast room would see an increase in viewers whenever there were some "knife-eating" plots, and even some foreign viewers would join in the fun.
Not only Daxia''s audience, but the entire Daxia culture circle, and even the European and American culture circles would have viewers seeking the excitement. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But there had never been so many at once before!
Even though she didn''t want any spoilers, she couldn''t help but ask the barrage ofments anxiously, "Is the story of ''Speed Chase'' really sad?"
As soon as Nandong''s question appeared, thements immediately became denser, with everyone reassuring her:
"No, no, you''re overthinking it. This is just a fast-paced gunfight game. Fighting is like mowing grass, fast and exhrating!"
"That''s right, that''s right. Besides the slow start, you''re either fighting or on your way to fight!"
"Yes, yes, we just want to see Kitty in a real gunfight, dominating all around. Just the thought of the contrast is interesting!"
"Right, right! I can vouch for it; they''re all telling the truth!"
...
Seeing so many people swear by it, Nandong started to feel uncertain: they seemed to have a point...
If it weren''t for "Speed Chase" being thetest virtual reality game, she wouldn''t have yed that type of game in the first ce.
Her live streaming n was to y the story mainline of "Speed Chase" and then move on to "Light Encounter."
And with so many viewers gathered in her streaming room, it was a rare opportunity, and it didn''t make sense not to stream.
"Then I''ll trust you guys." Nandong smiled at the camera, turned on the headband, and logged into the virtual world.
What appeared before her first was the Door of Flowing Water, naturally above a calm water surface. She needed to choose her login space first.
There were four options avable: Sand Dune, House, Yu Environment, and Candy House. Each corresponds to the initial login space environments for "Traveler of the Wind," "Assassins'' Alliance," "Light Encounter," and "Paradise" respectively.
The login space reward of "Speed Chase" would unlock afterpleting the main storyline.
However, in Lincoln''s design, games with the same modern theme would not unlock a separate space but insteadbine with existing properties, adding more outdoor environments and interior decoration styles.
Later, they would observe yer feedback.
If there aren''t too manyints, they n to consolidate all login spaces into one system.
In the future, when yers buy new games, they will only unlock more customization options and special furniture.
By then, they can also break the barriers between different login spaces, allowing yers to utilize all the decorative rewards they''ve achieved.
Instead of the current situation where yers can''t ce a white stone they obtained from "Light Encounter" in their metropolitan-style property simply because items from two spaces are not interchangeable.
Once such modifications areplete, yers will gain greater "decoration freedom," and Cloud Dream will save a lot of redundant work.
They won''t have to design a separate login space for each new game but instead put more effort into designing beautiful scenes, different styles of furniture, and interesting decorations.
Well, they might as well make some money from collectors...
Due to personal preference, Nandong chose the "Light Encounter" login space first and excitedly studied what settings she could customize.
Then she sadly discovered that most of the options were still locked, requiring her to y the game to unlock them.
Even some items required her toplete special tasks to unlock them.
"Sigh, never mind." Nandong let out a small sigh. "Time to y the game."
As she talked, she finally logged into Night City.
