What do you mean the games you make are all real?!

"Fuck your system!" Fang Qingzhou finally couldn't hold back any longer and cursed.

He said that no game is released level by level. Obviously, the system saw that he couldn't beat the next part of the story, so it made him come back and release an Early Access version of the game to make money and hoard some resurrection coins.

He knew that the difficulty would increase significantly later on, since the Lickers, Tyrants, and G-virus mutants had not yet appeared, and these were monsters a hundred times more terrifying than ordinary zombies.

However, he didn't know how long it would take for those monsters to appear, but judging from the system's reminder, he would probably encounter them next time.

The system is now reminding him to come back and stock up on resurrection coins, which seems very considerate.

If it weren't for this damn system, why would he have entered that dangerous Resident Evil world? Why would he have had to face those monsters?

He really wants to smash this damn system now.

"System, release the game tomorrow!" Fang Qingzhou shouted.

He originally planned to wait two or three days until the public opinion had fully fermented before releasing it, but now he has to release it earlier, otherwise he doesn't know if he will be able to come back alive to release the second level next time.

"By the way, how are system games priced? Do I adjust the prices myself, or do you set them?" Fang Qingzhou asked.

The game price is set by the host.

"Can I make the game free, but I have to buy resurrection coins to revive after dying once?" Fang Qingzhou said with a strange expression.

If he has to buy resurrection coins every time he dies, then do his players also have to buy resurrection coins every time they die?

【Can】

The system's answer was brief and to the point.

Fang Qingzhou's eyes lit up completely, and he started calculating rapidly.

If the game itself is free and players don't need to spend a penny to download it, then given the explosive popularity of the "Resident Evil: Raccoon City" trailer and the billion-dollar marketing campaign, the number of downloads would probably be astronomical, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

In this parallel world where the gaming industry has expanded into the world's largest industry, it's not impossible for a truly free top-tier AAA game to surpass one billion downloads.

In this world, there has never been a top-tier game that is free before.

Once players get hooked on the game and are bitten to death by zombies, a pop-up window will appear saying: "You have died. Do you want to spend 10 yuan to buy a resurrection coin to continue the game?"

He didn't set the price of the resurrection coin too high, because if it were, no one would play it. The main reason is that the game only has one level right now, so he can't price it too high.

If he collects money at each level, he won't know how many levels there are, and it's difficult to determine how much money each level should cost.

Ten yuan is just the price of a cup of milk tea, and I believe many people will still spend that amount of money to experience this amazing masterpiece.

He understands players too well. Players are willing to spend money on a good game, players are willing to spend a lot of money on an addictive game, and players are even willing to spend crazy amounts of money on an addictive yet frustrating game.

For example, some top-tier Soulslike games will have players cursing the game designers for being brainwashed, while simultaneously continuing to play like masochists.

Fang Qingzhou quickly did some mental calculations: 100 million players, if each one dies once, that's 1 billion yuan; if each one dies ten times, that's 10 billion yuan; if each one dies a hundred times, then this game wouldn't be called "Resident Evil," it should be called "Resident Evil: Pay-to-Win Hell."

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

-----------------

In the virtual battlefield of "Battlefield Vanguard", Liao Yunkai lay in a shell crater, holding an anti-tank grenade in his hand, intently feeling the ground shaking.

When the pebbles in the crater were trembling slightly, he decisively poked his head out and threw the anti-tank grenade in his hand.

The anti-tank grenade landed precisely on the bottom of the half-track armored vehicle in front, and the armored vehicle was quickly turned into a fireball, and all the soldiers transported on it were killed.

As the half-track armored vehicle and the soldiers on it were destroyed, the victory sign appeared before Liao Yunkai's eyes.

And on the floating screen next to it, bullet comments kept scrolling by.

"Wow, this streamer is awesome! He single-handedly took on an entire squad and even destroyed an armored vehicle!"

"This streamer is practically a reincarnation of a legendary soldier! I feel like even active-duty soldiers aren't as amazing as him!"

"The streamer is awesome! That last comeback was so cool!"

"Yun Kai, Yun Kai, did you see the Resident Evil trailer?"

"Kai-ge, do you want to try that new game? I heard it's pretty scary."

"Let's forget about Mi Teng's game, don't get Kai Ge's hands dirty."

Liao Yunkai glanced at the comments and smiled: "Resident Evil? I saw the trailer, the visuals are indeed top-notch. Whether I'll actually play it or not is still uncertain. Let's wait and see when the game comes out. If the quality is really like the trailer, I might give it a try."

But a striking comment that cost 100 yuan immediately popped up, with a teasing and mocking tone: "Come on, Kai-ge isn't good at horror games, is he? Last time we played that haunted house game, Kai-ge was so scared that he dropped the mouse."

When Liao Yunkai saw this eye-catching comment, he immediately felt embarrassed, as it was a dark chapter in his live-streaming career.

"That was an accident! A funny face suddenly popped up in the game, anyone would be startled, okay?" He coughed slightly, trying to explain.

The screen was immediately filled with "hahahahaha" comments.

"Alright guys, that's all for the midday livestream. The streamer's off to lunch! See you tonight!"

After finishing his speech, Liao Yunkai closed the live stream and took off the virtual gaming helmet from his head.

"I'm exhausted..." Liao Yunkai shook his neck, stretching his stiff and sore shoulders and arms. The muscle lines on his arms were faintly visible under his T-shirt, traces left by long-term training, which had not completely disappeared even after sitting in a wheelchair for several years.

He then wheeled himself out of the room used for the live broadcast.

The dining table outside the room was already full of food, and people from other rooms also ended their live streams and came outside to eat, while greeting Liao Yunkai.

"Brother Kai, the live stream is over!"

Although Liao Yunkai is in a wheelchair, no one looks down on him. After all, Liao Yunkai is now one of the top streamers of "Battlefield Vanguard". Each live broadcast has 100,000 viewers, and sometimes even 200,000.

There are so many comments in his live stream that you can't keep up with them all. If you want to interact, you have to leave a prominent message with 100 comments per person. His earning power is terrifying.

"Let's all eat together." Liao Yunkai nodded with a smile and invited everyone to sit down. His smile was natural and unpretentious, just like an ordinary older brother next door.

A dozen or so people sat around the dining table in turn.

"I really envy Brother Kai, he's so good at games." A streamer named Zhou Luo put a piece of braised pork into his mouth and said indistinctly while chewing, his eyes filled with undisguised envy as he looked at Liao Yunkai.

Another livestreamer named Shu Yiheng next to him nudged him in the waist with his elbow. The force was just right, almost making Zhou He spit out the meat in his mouth.

"Brother Kai used to be a special forces soldier, he's been in war, how can you compare to him?" Shu Yiheng immediately lowered his voice and whispered.
