On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

"If this game doesn't add any pay-to-win systems to disrupt the balance, it could potentially change the entire landscape of the holographic game industry. As I said before, small studios are either exceptionally good or exceptionally bad; congratulations, this one is the former."

Someone replied to him: "Didn't you say before that you couldn't find any information about the production company? What about now?"

Star Traveler replied: "Still can't find it. Eternal Studio, there's nothing on the entire StarNet except a homepage, not even an office address. It's ridiculous that no one knows who they are after making a game of this caliber."

Players obviously can't find it.

Lingling herself is the headquarters of Eternal Studio. She is the server, the engine, the operations and maintenance, and the customer service.

She was the only one on the entire development team.

But this does not affect the quality of the game at all, because her computing power is sufficient to support the operation of an entire universe-level game.

As for why the name "Eternal Studio" was chosen...

It was because her master's spaceship was called Eternity, and she felt it was only natural to use that name to credit her development team.

Forever and ever, forever and ever.

Five hours after its release, God Realm has already surpassed 10 billion concurrent online users, spanning seventeen major star systems.

"God Realm" occupied six of the top ten spots on the trending topics lists of major social media platforms.

The positive reviews were overwhelming, with apology posts from review bloggers, scenic screenshots from players, class guides, and live streams of dungeon raids flooding various communities.

The wind direction changed very quickly.

"The Endless Tower is supposed to be endless, but the game has only been open for a short time, and someone can already reach the thousandth floor with ordinary equipment?"

A new headline appeared, its wording sharp.

"A thousand floors in the Endless Tower? That's cheating, isn't it?"

Endless Tower is the most difficult PvE challenge mode in "God Realm". Each floor has an independent boss with different mechanics, attributes and skill combinations. The higher you go, the more challenging it becomes. It is a hardcore challenge carefully designed by Lingling.

When Lingling saw this post, she retrieved that player's game data.

Data doesn't lie.

The idea of ​​cheating is utter nonsense; who could pull such a trick in front of Lingling?

Lingling checked it out, and then a meaningful smile appeared on her lips.

The forums and the internet are already in an uproar.

"Are we supposed to keep cheaters around all the time?"

"A thousand floors in just five hours? That's practically cheating!"

"Where are the officials? Get out there and do something!"

"I told you so, the anti-cheating system for this kind of small-scale game is definitely not going to work. Let's call it a day."

The criticism grew louder and louder, with posts full of insults, ridicule, and disappointment pushing down the previous positive reviews.

Instead of issuing an announcement, Lingling added a challenge replay feature.

This feature was launched extremely quickly, appearing quietly on every player's game interface almost at the height of the criticism.

Clicking on any player's name on the leaderboard will allow you to view a complete replay of each level of that player's challenge, including all inputs, damage data, and real-time status changes, without missing a single detail.

That player wore the initial equipment from the first floor onwards.

By punching the boss repeatedly, drop by drop, the boss's health was reduced.

During this time, he relied on his agility to dodge all attacks without dying once, without using any weapons, and without making a single mistake.

From the first time to the thousandth floor, I brute force my way through it all by taking minimal damage.

Once the replay was shown, all the doubts ceased abruptly.

The players who were just cursing fell silent. After a while, the trend on the forum began to change.

"Could this guy be some well-known martial artist?"

This statement caused the discussion among all players to gradually veer in an even more disheartening direction.

"Could this guy be that famous fighter? His predictions and positioning are clearly beyond the reach of ordinary players."

"Others bring the fighting skills from the game into real life to practice, but these guys are already exceptionally strong. In the game, where there are no stamina restrictions, they are even more at ease."

"Why are fighters not training properly and instead coming to our gaming world? This is like a dimensional reduction attack."

In no time, "fighter" became the most popular meme across the entire server, with all sorts of emoticons and jokes flooding the internet.

Someone edited a video of the mysterious player slowly whittling down the boss into a short clip, adding the caption: "When fighters retire to play video games."

The number of views exceeded one billion within half an hour.

Someone even started a guessing game thread to find out who will be number one in the Endless Tower.

Some guessed it was a free agent, some guessed it was a bounty hunter, some guessed it was a member of a special forces unit of some alliance, and some guessed it might be a descendant of the Eight Extremes Heaven who came for leisure and entertainment.

Lingling looked at the comments that were pretty close to the mark and chuckled softly, "These netizens are really interesting; their imaginations are too wild."

However, this incident also served as a reminder to Lingling.

The design took all types of players into account, but it did not stratify the fighter group.

The difference between a fighter and an ordinary player is not the difference in equipment and level, but the essential difference in reaction speed, combat intuition, and body control.

A top-tier fighter has experienced countless life-or-death battles in the real world, honing their physical instincts and combat awareness to the extreme.

Once you enter the holographic game, there are no stamina restrictions, and your reaction speed far exceeds that of ordinary people, which will indeed create an overwhelming advantage in challenges.

Afterwards, Lingling revised the Divine Realm.

A separate tiered system will be established specifically for fighters, removing those with exceptional skills from the leaderboards of ordinary players and allowing them to compete in their own exclusive tiers, separate from ordinary players.

These guys are playing "Gods of Valor" because they're aiming for high difficulty levels; they're not in the same league as ordinary players.

Independent combat allows them to spar with equally matched opponents, which protects the gaming experience of ordinary players while also allowing fighters to enjoy the game to their heart's content.

The virtual world and the real world are two completely different battlefields.

The former can start over after dying, with unlimited energy to try and improve their skills. For fighters, this is the perfect training ground.

But the latter is different.

Reality is constrained by physical strength, energy, pain, and environment; a single mistake can lead to permanent disability or even death.

The room for trial and error is extremely small, but the cost is extremely high.

Both environments have their advantages and disadvantages, but they can complement each other.

Lingling had a sudden inspiration: "That's right! Since the Divine Realm can attract so many fighters to challenge and train, then if Master wants to find sparring partners in the future, he can just go directly to the Divine Realm."

"Let's do it!"

The initial turmoil surrounding "Divine Realm" has been brought to a smooth end.

With the reputation stabilized and doubts dispelled, the complaints from ordinary players also subsided considerably after the fighter tier system was launched.

The number of online users remains high, and the revenue is also very considerable.

In just a few days, the net profit of the Divine Realm has exceeded tens of billions, and it continues to grow at an astonishing rate.
