Chapter 163 Start! Tokyo Game Festival!

Gu Sheng was stunned.

Then he walked into the house and turned on the light.

He looked under the shoe cabinet, sniffed softly, and tried hard to suppress the smile on his face.

After pushing the suitcase into the living room, he walked to the water dispenser without any hurry and filled himself with water. Then he deliberately raised his voice:

"Oh! I'm so tired! I've been working so hard for this company!"

"I went through wind and rain every day! I slept on straw and suffered hardships in Japan!"

"As a result, when I got home, there was no one to welcome me, and I didn't even have a bite to eat... Wait a minute?"

Speaking of this.

Gu Sheng suddenly paused:

"Why do I suddenly smell the fragrance of food?"

"Could it be that the snail girl has entered the house?"

"Hey! Forget it! What am I thinking!"

"As for me, I'd better go to sleep for a while, and then order some takeout when I wake up! Alas!!!"

That’s it!

Gu Sheng raised his leg and was about to walk towards his bedroom!

But the next second!

Behind the island counter in the open kitchen, a pretty figure with a bun on her head stood up, holding a bouquet of flowers in her arms, trying not to laugh:

"Why are you so dramatic?"

It was Shen Miaomiao!

“Yo!”

Gu Sheng pretended to be surprised and turned to look at Little Nezha:

"Snail girl! Take a photo and record it quickly..."

Talking about it!

Gu Sheng took out a Polaroid camera from behind him as if by magic.

The camera was pointed at Shen Miaomiao, and there was a click!

After the photo paper was developed, Gu Sheng pinched the corner and shook it.

In the photo, the girl holding flowers has a look of surprise on her face. She stands behind the island counter, like a blooming daffodil, pure and pretty.

“Polaroid!”

Shen Miaomiao's eyes were filled with surprise!

"How did you know I wanted this?!"

You know, she had never told Gu Sheng about this before!

She had originally planned to buy one after Lao Gu came back, to record the time they spent together.

But unexpectedly, Lao Gu actually brought one back from Japan!

"Ah? I don't know..."

Gu Sheng was also surprised by this.

He simply didn't know what gift to give little Nezha.

After all, little Nezha was born here. As a young lady born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she must have never lacked gold and silver jewelry, even if she was spoiled.

Thinking about how the two of them had gone out together so many times but never took a single photo, I bought a camera.

And this thing seems to have always been popular among girls.

Originally, Gu Sheng was worried that little Nezha would not be interested in this thing. After all, it was not something new.

But unexpectedly, it actually caters to his preferences!

Little Nezha poked the bouquet of flowers on the counter, ran over happily, and reached out to grab the Polaroid camera in Gu Sheng's hand.

Gu Sheng suddenly remembered what his emotional mentor Mr. Lu Bian said - [You should also take the initiative]

So, he raised his hand high, teasing her to grab it, and at the same time stretched out his other hand and gently pulled it!

The light and delicate Narcissus was taken into his arms.

"A polite hug,"

Gu Sheng chuckled and whispered:

"...I miss you so much."

Hey hey hey? !

In an instant!

Shen Miaomiao's mind went blank!

Feeling the burning heartbeat in Gu Sheng's chest and listening to that low and gentle voice.

Shen Miaomiao's face suddenly turned red!

Like a boiling kettle, red from the neck all the way to the ears!

No, no, no!

What's going on?

ah?

What is going on? !

This, this, this...why did this guy suddenly become proactive?

It's a foul! It's such a foul!

Shen Miaomiao's face flushed and her pupils trembled.

In her impression, Gu Sheng has always been a reserved man.

Although he usually doesn't say anything serious, but when it comes to expressing something, he is always like a wooden stake. I don't know whether he really doesn't understand or is pretending.

Although such behavior is indeed full of gentlemanly manners.

But Shen Miaomiao always felt that there was a gap between them.

It was a barrier and obstruction filled with a sense of distance.

original!

Shen Miaomiao has been worrying about how to break through this invisible and intangible, yet real barrier.

But now, when Gu Sheng took the initiative to attack, she couldn't help but tremble slightly all over!

The surging heartbeat seemed to carry an aggressive aura like a raging fire, deadly yet bewitching!

Shen Miaomiao, who had always been in the active state in their relationship , now became as docile as a cat with its neck pinched!

Fortunately!

Gu Sheng’s hug was just enough, which finally allowed Shen Miaomiao to retain some sanity.

"I... uh... that..."

Shen Miaomiao's mind froze after taking the Polaroid camera. She didn't know where to put her hands. She pointed at the kitchen and then the bathroom as if directing traffic:

"I...I'll go wash my hands...and cook some noodles for you..."

"In addition, the dishes I ordered are all in the kitchen. Please bring them to the restaurant..."

After saying that, Shen Miaomiao ran away as if escaping, went into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and washed her face frantically!

No, no! I can’t bear it! I really can’t bear it!

Just in that moment!

From what can be broadcast to what cannot be broadcast, everything flashed through her mind!

Electronic succubus!

Which cadre can survive such a test!

Turning the water to the coldest setting, Shen Miaomiao had to calm herself down.

That was a close call.

Today's welcoming banquet was almost impossible to eat...

…

Three days later!

Japan!

Tokyo!

International Exhibition Center West Building Hall 1!

Crowds of people!

At this moment, the huge exhibition hall covering over 160,000 square meters is hosting nearly 600 game developers from all over the world, nearly 1,000 booths, and more than 200,000 visitors!

Game enthusiasts from all corners of the world, of all skin colors and languages gather here to join in the fun!

Some of them are pure players, some are dedicated journalists, some are platform anchors, and some are professional game reviewers!

Among the many exhibition halls, this is the most popular and busiest one!

Of course it’s the Konami booth!

It is an international giant and with local operations, it is naturally very powerful!

The biggest booth, the best booth, the most advanced venue introduction ranking!

For a moment, the Konami booth was bustling with noise!

There was a long queue of tourists waiting to try out the games in front of the experience area.

laugh--

As one of the somatosensory cabins in the "Yakuza" experience area opened.

A foreign guy with blond hair walked out of the somatosensory cabin.

This man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, very young, with high brows, deep eye sockets, and a stylish beard that was obviously carefully groomed.

The hoodie he wore had the logo of [UTube], one of the world's largest comprehensive video platforms, printed on the chest.

And below the logo is a cartoon character that is very similar to him, with a big head and a small body, wearing a headset and holding a controller, with his head tilted back and his neck shrunk, looking extremely terrified.

In fact, theoretically speaking, as an international game expo, it is not surprising for people from all countries to appear at the Tokyo Game Festival.

but!

The moment the young man walked out of the somatosensory cabin, he saw many players and media reviewers queuing outside the experience area, and many of them exclaimed in surprise!

"Pewdiepee?!"

"Oh my god, it's really Pew!"

"Can you sign an autograph for me, Pew? I like you so much! I subscribed to your channel a long time ago!"

"Did you just experience "Yakuza"? How did it feel?"

“…”

Yes! This seemingly ordinary foreign guy is Pewdiepee, who has 89 million fans on UTube and is known as one of the world's most profitable game anchors!

This young man from Ruidian is 26 years old and is a comprehensive game video blogger.

Due to its excellent live broadcast effects and video quality, it is loved and followed by many fans.

Last year, he earned a total of $15.5 million through live broadcasts and UTube game video-related advertisements, and the cost of one promotional advertisement was as high as $450,000!

In the gaming circle, especially in foreign gaming circles, Pew's influence is huge.

There is even a saying circulating in foreign gaming circles: Maybe you have never heard of Taylor Swift's songs, maybe you don't know who Johnny Depp is, but as long as you play games, you will definitely know who Pewdiepee is.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is the world's top gaming anchor.

And today!

Tokyo Game Festival opens.

As one of the most influential players, Pew came to the scene as a special live guest to experience the games on display, both out of his own will and on behalf of UTube.

Seeing so many fans gathered around him, Pew smiled and signed autographs for the fans in a casual manner, while saying:

"Emmmm, how should I put it? This game is more in line with my expectations... or should I say... anticipation?"

"Exciting gunfights, Japanese Yakuza culture, wild racing... these are all I can think of, and in fact it has achieved these,"

"At least that's what I saw in the demo, which is pretty standard."

Hearing this, a dark-skinned female reporter asked, "If you were to rate it, how many points would you give to this trial version?"

"this……"

Pew shrugged awkwardly:

"Theoretically, I shouldn't comment too much on or rate a game that's not yet complete,"

"But if I have to say... 8 points, at least it shows what I think."

"Of course, this is just my personal evaluation."

Just finished.

Then another player's voice came : "Master Pew, what about Silent Hill PT? How would you rate it?!"

"PT..."

Speaking of this, Pew smacked his lips and thought a little hesitantly:

“To be honest, this is the game I’m most looking forward to at this show, but also the one I have the least hope for.”

These words, which sound extremely contradictory, also indirectly reflect the helpless reality of the decline of horror games around the world today.

Pew started out by making horror game videos.

As we all know, if you want to create a good show effect, horror games are definitely the best choice, no doubt about it.

Because whether it is live broadcast or video, it is a platform that emphasizes short, flat and fast.

The strong visual impact of horror games, coupled with the host's screaming reaction when frightened, can undoubtedly perfectly meet the needs of the audience.

but!

As the gameplay creativity of horror games becomes increasingly scarce, this type of game is gradually declining.

It can even be said.

The decline of horror games actually began to show as early as the PC era.

However , the emergence of the somatosensory cabin gave it a new lease of life.

But this breath is only temporary.

When the physical impact is over.

What remains is still the outdated core and the numbing, uncreative plot design that is designed to shock for the sake of shocking.

Speaking of this.

Pew seemed a little emotional.

He started out making horror games and has a special feeling for this type of game.

Over the years, he has collected and played almost every new horror game, whether it is for PC or somatosensory.

Every time, he wanted to find something new or something that would catch his eye.

But every time, he got the opposite of what he wanted.

If this continues, even Pew himself will soon have to admit that there is really no cure for horror games.

"And this time is no different,"

pew said:

"Honestly, I have absolute admiration and respect for Sam, and his TitanFall is the best FPS game I have ever seen,"

"Absolutely a work of art,"

"Oh my god, I even cried for two hours in the live broadcast room the day I cleared the game,"

"If Sam is the lead and is working with KONAMI on an FPS game this time, it would definitely be my first choice,"

"But……"

Speaking of this.

Pew shrugged and looked at the "Silent Hill PT" somatosensory area located at the side of the experience area, with a complicated expression on his face.

"But this time Sam actually chose a horror game, and it's a brand new IP that I've never heard of,"

"…Although Sam's previous work, Phasmophobia, was also of excellent quality,"

"But obviously, if PT is still at that level, I don't think it can be compared to Yakuza."

Pew's evaluation is relatively objective.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that the discussion about PT has remained hot.

However, there are very few people who truly believe in this game.

This can also be seen from the long queues at the scene.

Take a look at the experience area of Yado Fusion - located in the core position of the booth, KONAMI's main game at this exhibition. The people queuing up made three turns, like a long dragon.

Let’s take a look at the PT experience area - it is located on the edge of the booth. Although it has the most people queuing up to experience the non-main games, it is still half the number of people compared to Yakuza.

and.

The team in the PT experience area seems to be moving particularly fast.

Normally, the on-site trial time for a game is usually ten to fifteen minutes.

For example, at Jidao Kuangbiao, there were 30 trial motion sensing cabins, but the team was still moving so slowly.

But on the PT side, although there were less than 10 trial motion sensing cabins, the team was advancing vigorously!

It seems that the players who go to experience it have very limited patience, and usually leave after three to five minutes.

How bad is this game?

Pew glanced at the PT experience area and muttered to himself.

Not only was he unable to retain players, he even saw with his own eyes several players leaving with their hands on their chests, being supported by their companions.

His face turned pale and he looked disgusted.

Gift Crab——

Pew became more and more curious.

Logically speaking, shouldn't it?

That's the game Sam designed!

No matter how bad it is, it shouldn't make people feel like vomiting, right?

Even if he had no new ideas and just copied "Phasmophobia", the result wouldn't be like this, right?

The more Pew thought about it, the weirder it seemed.

So he raised his hand politely and motioned for everyone to make way:

"Okay my dears, uh, now I'm going to experience PT, could you please let me go to the queue? Thank you!"

Seeing this.

Fans and reporters also made way for them.
