Chapter 343: 996? 627!

In fact, as a professional game anchor, people like A Yin from China and Pew and Ying Shu from abroad are usually very sensitive to games.

As they make this their profession, they must be familiar with every game released.

At least, when well-known manufacturers such as XunTeng, Yiyou and Konami and Yunwei from abroad release games, they are basically the first to know and pay attention to it.

Although Golden Wind is not a large-scale game manufacturer today, its fame is enough to rival those of the above-mentioned large manufacturers.

So it stands to reason that it is almost impossible for Yin not to know about the release of Golden Wind's game.

But now this "Stardew Valley"...

Ah Yin looked at the detailed information of the game and found that it was indeed produced by Golden Wind. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised:

"Damn, it really is Xiao Huang's game. I thought it was just a nominal one."

Just as Gu Sheng had expected.

Stardew Valley is so unpopular that even the top domestic anchors don't know anything about it.

After understanding the reason, A Yin suddenly realized it.

"Oh - hi - I didn't know that at all,"

Ah Yin was a little amused:

"This is the mini-game that Yiyou is promoting overseas this year. The publicity is not that great, and it also collides perfectly with Golden Wind's own Resident Evil 7."

"No wonder I've never heard of it."

When this was said, the netizens also found it quite funny——

'Me? Kill me?'

"Correct answer! Let's do it..."

'Xiao Huang: Yunwei Konami is just a mere ace, it's not as strong as my left and right fighting'

"Hahahahahahaha indeed, Konami and Yunwei didn't block even a single game before, but the first game to be blocked from promotion was actually made by Xiao Huang himself."

"But I guess the old thief didn't take this game very seriously at the time."

"Normal, how much does this small game cost? After all, Resident Evil 7 is the main game."

"The point is that Resident Evil 7 has almost used up all the publicity and promotion resources, and poor Stardew Valley doesn't even have a chance to stand out."

'Stardew Valley: Brother, if you can't finish it, can you leave some for me? Resident Evil 7: I can't leave any for you!'

“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha…”

"……"

As the netizens were discussing, A Yin also downloaded the game.

After all, it's just a small game sold on PC, only over 600 megabytes, and it downloaded in seconds.

When the game opens, you will be greeted by a mosaic Golden Wind LOGO.

Then, the gentle electronically synthesized piano sound came towards you like a breeze, and the soft and melodious flute sound seemed to carry the fragrance of a golden wheat field, as if it could lift up the human soul.

The emotions conveyed by music have no borders.

The pure feeling brought by pure music is like crystal, and it even makes people a little moved.

The mixed emotions came together, and for a moment Ah Yin couldn't help but lose consciousness:

"...Wow, this soundtrack is really...really nice."

It seems to have a magic that reminds people of their childhood.

As he spoke, under the pure blue pixel-style sky, a wooden sign with sprouts dotted around it slowly rose up.

Stardew Valley

【Golden Wind】

【Devotion】

And below the big wooden sign, three small wooden signs were neatly arranged:

【New Game】【Loading】【Exit】

Clean and simple.

There is no difficulty adjustment, no DLC, and even the game settings are miniaturized in the lower right corner of the screen.

"Another pixel-style game. Not bad, not bad, not bad..."

Although the game hasn't started yet, the opening scene has already won A Yin's favor.

As we all know, the quality of Golden Wind's pixel games is top-notch.

"Vampire Survivor" and "To the Moon", one is the pinnacle of gameplay, and the other is a full-media masterpiece with a perfect story.

Ayin still likes the pixel-style butter very much.

However, whether it can achieve the same level as vampires and going to the moon remains a question mark:

"Come on! Let's start the game!"

Click!

As Ayin clicked the mouse, the game began. After naming his farm [CSTG Farm], he simply made a figurine of Zhang Fei with a black beard, and the game officially began.

The glowing fire swayed slowly with tiny pixel flames.

On the dark blue bed, a white-haired old man who looked like Santa Claus lay peacefully, holding a letter in his hand, and the subtitles below slowly scrolled -

This letter is for my most special grandson. Please keep it safe, but don't open it for now. Be patient.

Listen, the moment you feel overwhelmed by the burdens of real life, the moment your spirit fades in the face of emptiness, if there is such a day, then my dear grandson, you can open this gift...

Then, the scene changed——

There are densely packed cubicles. Under the surveillance of cameras with no blind spots, the little people who are working hard dare not relax at all. They are like clockwork toy machines, working non-stop in the narrow cubicles.

The depressing and cold atmosphere was lifeless, like a dark cage.

And right in front of the cubicles, on a tall and exaggerated iron wall, the name of the company is engraved.

【KomiVendi】

Komeiwangdi.

" Hahahahaha! This name is so awesome..."

A Yin burst into laughter when he saw it.

The barrage was also full of laughter——

"What is the ultimate evil thing in another world?"

"A combination of Konami and Vivendi, right? A collection of bad guys!"

'It's too sexy, this old thief is so weird'

'Some companies are known to be villains as soon as their names come out'

"It's also thanks to Xun Teng's good relationship with Gold now. If this happened a few years ago, I'm afraid the villain's name would be [Fuji Xun] (dog head)"

"Okay, okay, if you want to do this, I will buy the game. I will kill the two biggest villains in the East and West hemispheres with one wave of justice."

"It's so funny, this old thief is really too mean..."

"……"

The clicking sounds continued.

In the small cubicle, the pixel-style A Yin sighed deeply, obviously overwhelmed by the burden of work.

However, just as he opened the drawer to look for the stapler, the letter that his grandfather had left for him when he died several years ago came into view.

Brush——

The letter opened.

【Dear A-Yin】

My child, when you open this letter, you must be eager for change.

A long time ago, I was as confused as you. We were so busy with work, life and running around that we lost ourselves in this steel jungle.

But fortunately, I found a place, a place that can make my soul feel at rest, and that is where I truly belong.

Attached to the letter was the deed to the land that was my pride and joy: CSTG Farm.

It is located in Stardew Valley on the southern outskirts of Golden City.

This is my most precious gift. Now I am giving it to you. I believe that you will be able to find peace of mind here.

【——Love your grandpa】

[PS: If Lewis is still alive, please say hello to that old guy for me]

Crunch—hiss—

The bus stopped and the door opened.

A Yin got off the bus, and an orange-haired woman at the bus stop seemed to be there to greet him:

"Hey, you are A Yin, right? My name is Robin, I'm the carpenter here. Mayor Lewis asked me to pick you up, let's go~"

Soon, following Robin's guidance, a small courtyard that looked somewhat desolate, overgrown with weeds and gravel appeared on the screen.

On the north side of the courtyard is a small orange-red house with a pointed roof.

After some greetings, Yin learned that his CSTG farm was adjacent to Pelican Town. If he wanted to upgrade his house in the future, he could find Robin. The mayor also suggested that he could go to the town to visit some neighbors tomorrow. Everyone was very curious about him.

The game ends here!

A Yin could still understand it.

But then, he was a little confused.

Because after some greetings, the mayor and Robin left.

Go away!

Gone?

ah?

Ah Yin stood in front of the small house, looking confused:

"No... then what? What should I do now? What about my main quest?"

A Yin was stunned.

Originally, he thought that Komewangdi, who was introduced at the beginning of the story, would launch a lightning strike to destroy the world, and that Stardew Valley was like a mysterious sanctuary where he could learn some spells from the mayor, gather his strength to kill the bad guys, and finally save the world.

He is ready for battle!

But the reality is quite different!

Even after he searched for a while, he only found some... farm tools in the mysterious package in his slightly shabby house?

"Here's a pickaxe, here's an axe, there's also a sickle and a hoe, a kettle and some packets of seeds..."

Ah Yin frowned and looked through his backpack in confusion:

"I don't even have a sword? So this game is asking me to... farm?!"

Go out again.

A Yin stood in front of the messy courtyard and felt that his mind was as messy as the courtyard.

As for the audience, they were even more confused——

'So? The player's task is to farm?'

'This game is too weird'

"It feels like there is no mission objective at all."

"Maybe it will be fine tomorrow. Didn't the mayor ask the boss to go to town to visit the neighbors tomorrow?"

'It's possible, maybe he got a mission from the town?'

"I guess today we'll just get familiar with the situation a bit, and the main story will start tomorrow..."

"……"

No one has ever played this game!

The NPC briefly explained a few things and then left, leaving only a set of simple farm tools for the protagonist.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I going to do?

Three soul-searching questions linger in the minds of players, leaving them at a loss.

It seems that all they can do now is to go with the flow and do whatever they can.

Thinking of this, Yin shrugged and picked up the sickle:

"Since we have nothing to do, why don't we just clean up the yard? Maybe it will be useful later?"

Speaking of.

A Yin waved the sickle and started cutting the grass.

Rustle——rustle——rustle——

The blade cut through the weeds, making a relaxing sound.

As the sickle was swung continuously, a small area in front of the house was cleared and it seemed to be a little tidier.

However, the messy dead branches were revealed and were quite an eyesore.

So, Ayin switched to the axe and started clearing away the dead branches.

Then, he changed the draft and shoveled away the stones with a clanging sound.

In fact, originally, A Yin just wanted to clean up the small piece of wasteland in front of the door.

But as he was doing it, even he and his friends in the live broadcast room didn't notice it.

The cleanup work seems to be getting out of control.

after all!

"Now that we're here..."

"Let's cut the grass here as well."

"Now that we're here..."

"Knock this stone away as well."

"Now that we're here..."

"Let's clear away this dead branch as well."

"Now that we're here..."

From grass to gravel, from dead branches to small trees.

Every time when A Yin wanted to stop, new debris would appear on the screen, making people instantly feel uncomfortable because of the uncleanliness.

After all, “since we’re already here, it’s just a matter of convenience”!

Swish, swish—tap, tap, tap—ding, ding, ding, ding—

In the small farm, A Yin was sweating profusely, cleaning up debris one by one.

The wasteland in front of the house gradually became clean, tidy and comfortable, and my obsessive-compulsive disorder was ecstatic.

The comments were also praised——

'The boss is really meticulous in his work'

'It seems like you've been practicing a lot at home'

'Family Brotherhood'

"No... I still don't know what this game is about, but... why does it feel so good?"

'Hahahahahaha indeed, this is fucking outrageous. I feel like cleaning the yard here might be quite fun.'

'I would call it a sanitation simulator'

"This is simply a game for people with obsessive compulsive disorder. If you don't tidy up properly, you will feel uncomfortable..."

"……"

Weird decompression!

Obviously, this game is very different from Golden Wind's previous games.

Although the game has been going on for a while, no one knows what the game is all about, and it seems that all they can do is "farm."

but!

Until the sun sets in the game!

But Ayin hasn’t even achieved the small goal of “farming”!

You can never clear all the weeds at any time!

Especially after discovering that lying on the bed to rest could restore his stamina bar, the farm tools in Ayin's hands jingled even more, and his stamina bar also fluctuated.

Until night falls, the stars and the moon rise into the sky, and everything is silent!

Ding ding—ding!

As Ayin swung the hoe again, the small stone in front of him was about to shatter!

With a gulp!

A Yin on the screen finally couldn't hold on any longer, and he fell to the ground and fell asleep.

At this time, look at the time in the game——

Two-thirty in the morning.

The comments in the live broadcast room froze for half a second.

Then the whole room burst into laughter——

"Hahahahaha? It's already 2:30 in the middle of the night?"

'Young people are in good health and can fall asleep as soon as they lie down'

"Fuck, I just realized that the boss has been hoeing the land for a whole day?"
