Chapter 98 If the light does not tolerate me, I will become darkness
"This is a huge planning effort! This event is too big!"
"Wife, please knock on my thigh bone. Am I dazzled? Did the God of Death change the planner?"
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen an official welfare event since I entered Death God's Scourge!"
"You bastard! You are not a human! You have no shame! Do you look down on veteran players?"
"I'm a new player. I think the game experience is great. I love the planning dad. I want to be a level 19 new player forever!"
Once a new game event is launched, players will have different reactions, whether in the game forum or on the world public screen.
Obviously, except for the fifth activity that increases the number of titles, the other activities, no matter how attractive or powerful they are, have nothing to do with old players.
Among the five activity contents, four are related to new players!
This made many veteran players beat their chests and cry out that it was unfair.
However, the new players felt the great kindness and help from the game officials at the first moment. These four activities can definitely help new players become old players in a very short time.
The feedback from new players is generally good, with most of them praising it with words like "conscientious planning!" and "Death Scourge is really fun!"
When Xu Xiaofan saw this scene, he felt very relieved.
To be honest, Xu Xiaofan really invested a lot of money in this event.
Especially for the activity content in Article 4, the life points required for upgrading are reduced by 10%!
This means that before the players reach level 20, Xu Xiaofan will have to at least reduce many sources of life energy income. If the number of new players continues to increase, Xu Xiaofan will have to reduce even more sources of life energy income.
However, this part of the lifespan is not considered a loss, but rather is equivalent to being invested in the strength growth of new players, helping them grow faster.
Xu Xiaofan knew that if he wanted the players to become strong, he had to invest in their training.
If you raise a cat, you have to feed it cat food, and if you raise a dog, you have to take it for a walk every day. How is it possible to train a player without cutting any meat?
As long as new players grow stronger quickly and integrate into the group quickly, the overall strength of the player camp can be improved and more benefits can be brought to Xu Xiaofan.
However, having said that, Xu Xiaofan still felt a little pain in his heart when he thought about the huge cost he would have to invest.
It hurts so much!
Xu Xiaofan comforted himself: "As a god, I have to have a long-term vision. Anyway, I have no shortage of life energy now, so of course I have to focus on improving the strength of the new players."
The announcement of this event did have some negative impacts.
The old players were clamoring to quit the game. Even within the first hour of the mission being issued, Xu Xiaofan saw more than 40,000 old players go offline!
Old players are angry!
They came to the game forum to vent their anger and posted messages to curse the planner!
"You bastard, get out of here! I've offended you, you old player. Why can't I participate in the first four activities at level 20?"
"Damn it, I just reached level 20 today. If I had known, I would have lowered my level so I could get more points from public missions and free draws."
"Really, I suspect that if the planners continue to drive people away, the rubbish planners will ruin this good game, Death Scourge."
"It's really ugly that the planners are greedy. They ignore the old players for the sake of traffic."
"It's confirmed that the planner is a scumbag! He's the typical person who forgets his old love when he has a new one!"
Looking at the game forums filled with posts scolding him, Xu Xiaofan felt a little annoyed.
It’s not that he is afraid of being scolded. After all, being scolded by players will definitely cost him some money. He is just worried that these old players will not really quit the game.
Just when Xu Xiaofan was thinking about this problem.
The second hour, the third hour...
Forty thousand old players who had been offline gradually came online. After a lot of noise, those who needed to level up did so, those who needed to go to dungeons did so, and those who needed to do public quests did so.
Some new players couldn't help but post a mocking message.
"Hey so-and-so, I just saw you say on the forum that you were going to quit the game, and you even posted a message as proof. Why are you online again and trying to steal my monsters?"
What did you say?
Did I just yell that I was quitting the game?
No, no, no, you heard me wrong. When did I ever say that?
Old players are just lip-service to their game. Who doesn't criticize the game planners when playing games? This is a common practice in the gaming industry. It is impossible for them to quit the game.
"Quitting the game... I can't possibly quit the game. I won't quit the game in this lifetime. There are no good games out there. I can only sustain my life by playing Death Note."
"Yes, yes! All the players in Deathly Hallows are talented and speak well. I like this place very much."
The old players are all smiling and laughing. It’s okay for them to have a fuss, but it’s impossible for them to really quit the game.
I've been playing for so long that I've developed some feelings for the game. How can I just give up on the account I worked so hard to train?
Besides, Death Scourge is really fun!
There is no way to give up Death Scourge. I feel uncomfortable if I don’t play it for a day!
Old players don’t know that this is a sequelae of a high level of faith.
Every player is a believer in the God of Death, and the level of faith subtly influences them, making them love the God of Death's Scourge from the bottom of their hearts.
"In short, we have to play the game and criticize the planners."
An old player stood up and posted a serious post: "I will open a post to criticize the planner. From now on, everyone can criticize the planner here to avoid polluting the forum and letting newcomers say that we old players have no quality."
The post was quickly pushed to the top and became the most popular post in the gaming forum.
"Okay, brother, I'll scold you first. If you plan to play chess, you will be criticized! If you buy groceries, you will pay twice as much! If you eat instant noodles, you will not have the seasoning packet!"
"The scolding above is too mild, the planner is my son!"
"We are all civilized people, how can we curse people casually? However, planners are not people, so cursing planners does not count as cursing people."
…
Xu Xiaofan was stunned as he flipped through the content of the post, somewhat unable to believe it.
"Am I so unpopular?"
Xu Xiaofan suddenly understood why the planning profession was so difficult.
This is all because of the long-standing tradition in the gaming industry, an excellent tradition of players that has been passed down from the keyboard era to the present day - "scolding the planners."
The more popular a game is, the more its planners will be criticized.
This is a theorem, a theorem that is more correct than the theorem of physics.
However, when Xu Xiaofan occasionally looked at the various swear words used by the players, he felt his eyes were opened.
The deeper the love, the more severe the scolding.
So Xu Xiaofan read the posts with great interest.
At this moment, the door to the Hall of Death was pushed open.
“Squeak.”
A thin figure walked into the Hall of Death. Her beautiful reflection was cast into the dark and gloomy hall. She stood at the door, hesitant to move forward.
"I...I go in alone?"
Arya looked up at the cloaked priest of the Tower of Destination in front of her, her beautiful big eyes filled with anxiety.
"Yes."
The priest nodded. Although his face could not be seen clearly, his voice was old and gentle, full of peace of mind: "This is God's favor and guidance. Only the luckiest people can have it."
"Child, you once said that you no longer believed in the light, but today you will understand that darkness is light."
“Only by entering here and facing the true God can one feel the purest darkness.”
The priest's words made Alia stunned and she murmured to herself: "Do gods really exist in this world?"
"The great god of death is waiting for you inside. As a believer, you should give everything to the great god of death without hesitation."
The cloaked priest pointed to the Hall of Death. Seeing that Alia was still hesitating, he smiled and said, "If you don't want to, let's go back."
"No!"
Alia suddenly spoke, shook her head and said, "I don't regret it, I do! This is my decision!"
"I must see the difference between darkness and light!"
"I want to see the real God."
Alia took a step forward, small but firm.
She has to be the master of her own life.
If the light does not allow me, I will become darkness.
