The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

Two days later.

As time went on, the reputation and popularity of "The Great Angler" began to rise.

But as the saying goes, what you learn from books is never enough; you must put it into practice to truly understand.

Previously, a group of players in Chi Cheng's live stream who spammed the chat with comments, offered their opinions, and even boasted about their ability to escape were finally able to use the gold coins they had painstakingly saved to open the door to a new world after the fishing ban area was unlocked.

Then, the entire game's comment section turned into a chorus of lamentations.

The comment section of "The Great Angler" was almost completely flooded with posts of the same type.

[Beware! The overpriced, shady spots in the suburbs are too difficult to find! I feel like there are practically no good drop points; this map is even worse than the World Cup group stage!]

[Guys, I'm totally broken. I'm bankrupt... Who designed this game? It's so damn realistic and so damn torturous!]

[No bites at ordinary fishing spots, but bites at prime fishing spots, though it's difficult to break even.]

[This game, could you at least give me some money back? This journey has been so difficult!]

And all of this is just about black pits.

If the Black Pit map showed players what the true face of capitalists is, then the [No Fishing Zone] map perfectly taught all players a lesson about human greed and destruction.

Everyone who enters the no-fishing zone, after pulling up their first fish, will involuntarily have a fatal thought pop into their mind:

"It's only taken a minute, there's still plenty of time. How about... I cast again? Just one more cast! I'll leave right after this!"

Then there is no more then.

Because fisheries administration is completely unpredictable!

It could be the first cast, or it could be the second cast; it's very random.

The forum is filled with videos of people being caught red-handed and arrested in various ways.

Some people thought they were clever and brought the cheapest beginner bamboo poles to scout ahead, thinking they wouldn't lose anything anyway. But when they got caught, they were treated like their homes were confiscated!

Only a very small number of anglers with willpower as strong as steel, who can pick up their rods and leave immediately, can successfully evacuate from the no-fishing zone.

These very few survivors were immediately hailed as gods on the forum, and the comments section was filled with worship.

"Brother, how did you do that?"

Please send me the route map.

Are you cheating?

Did you bring the fish out?

[Did they open a back door? Are there any bribery options?]

The successful person was very low-key and only posted one sentence.

Take a quick look and leave.

These few words left everyone speechless.

If you don't fish, how can the fishery administration catch you?

I've been admiring you for nothing!

……

At this very moment, in Chi Cheng's live stream room on the Yinlang live streaming platform.

The man who was once full of vigor and boasted that he would drain the black pit and become the king of the no-fishing zone is now slumped in his gaming chair without any regard for his image.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he had dark circles under his eyes.

Clearly, this skeptical man stayed up all night last night.

The image on the screen remained frozen on that most rudimentary and desolate beginner river.

Holding the bamboo pole, Chi Cheng watched the fishing float occasionally move on the water's surface, feeling somewhat distressed.

"Brothers..."

"I feel like I'm experiencing a very severe withdrawal reaction right now."

"I've been spoiled by the big fish in the reservoir!"

"I don't even want to talk about those small fish and shrimp!"

"It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frug

Chi Cheng fished a few more times, but became increasingly annoyed.

It's not that the game isn't fun anymore, it's just that the difference is too obvious!

He had tried using a bamboo pole to explore the map behind it, but it broke in one go.

He's in pain!

It feels like someone who just drove a sports car is then asked to ride a shared bicycle.

This is not because it cannot be ridden.

It's a feeling of unease in my heart!

So, after catching river shrimp once again, Chi Cheng finally put the handle down.

"no."

"There are still problems with this design."

The comments section immediately perked up.

[It's starting, it's starting! The anchor is about to give a sharp commentary.]

[After their home was raided, they finally couldn't take it anymore.]

Actually, I think it's quite interesting. As long as you avoid fishing-prohibited areas, you can just pretend this map doesn't exist!

I agree! I haven't experienced such a realistic and fun fishing game in a long time!

Chi Cheng sat up straight, his tone much more serious than before.

"Brothers, you don't understand. What's the point of fishing if you don't go to restricted areas? Otherwise, you wouldn't have made this map, but since you did, I have to go!"

"Furthermore, I'm not saying you can't arrest people in no-fishing zones."

"It's a no-fishing zone, so arresting people is reasonable."

"I'm not saying that black pits can't be scams; if a black pit doesn't scam people, what kind of black pit would it be?"

"The problem is that its current punishment is too one-size-fits-all."

"It's satisfying to wipe out all the items that players have worked so hard to accumulate in one go, and the show's entertainment value is definitely explosive. But if an ordinary player were to be hit like that, it would be very easy for them to have their mentality completely shattered."

As he spoke, he opened his empty backpack, and the more he looked at it, the more heartbroken he became.

"At least give us a follow-up, right?"

"For example, I'll accept a fine."

"I'll accept the deduction of the gold coins."

"Like I said before, you even asked me to do tasks, write self-criticisms, clean up river garbage, help the fishery administration catch electrofishers, and redeem fishing gear. I'll do any of that."

"You can't make me go back to square one overnight and then make me go back to fishing for river shrimp in the beginner village."

"This is too cruel for someone like me who has seen a lot."

"Besides, you've made drones, speedboats, and even shore chase sounds, so why not let the players control them?"

"You're letting me run away!"

"Also, the fisheries administration battle royale I mentioned—that's a really interesting idea! The development team should definitely consider it!"

"The screen went black, and I was arrested without even having to resist. What kind of law enforcement is this? Is this some kind of cutscene?"

The comments section started to incite a frenzy of criticism.

The cutscene of law enforcement is hilarious.

Indeed, it's much more fun if you can run.

That's right, it's the no-fishing zone escape mode, hurry up and play!

[The streamer is giving suggestions to Chaoxi Games.]

[Aren't you a big streamer? Just send them a private message.]

Chi Cheng was stunned when he saw this comment.

Then he touched his chin.

"Private message?"

"It's not impossible."

Moreover, as a large-scale game streamer, this suggestion is very constructive. If he gets a reply, it will generate more content for his stream.

why not?

With that in mind, I switched directly to the Deep Blue platform and opened the official page of "Great Angler".

The official account of Chaoxi Games still maintains its familiar style.

Quiet.

silence.

It was as if he were dead.

The latest update is still the game's launch announcement, and the comments section is already overflowing with tens of thousands of messages, from players praising and cursing to urging the developers and even crying.

Chi Cheng looked at the official title with a complicated expression.

"Okay, I'll send it a message today."

He opened his private message and started typing.

Hello, I'm your host, Chi Cheng.

After typing this line, he paused, then deleted it.

"No, that's too kind of you."

He retyped it.

[This is Chi Cheng. I played "Great Angler" on my live stream yesterday. The game is great overall, and I've genuinely recommended it, but I have some thoughts and opinions about the no-fishing zones and the later-game penalty system.]

As soon as Chi Cheng read this, the comments section erupted in chaos.

[Add one sentence: You owe me my fishing rod.]

[Add a sentence: Give me back my golden koi fish.]

[Add a sentence: I speak on behalf of all the arrested fishermen.]

Chi Cheng ignored them and continued typing.

First of all, I am very pleased to say that your company's "Great Anglers" does an excellent job in terms of underlying physics feedback.

However! As a long-time player of single-player games, on behalf of the majority of players, I strongly protest against the game's extremely unreasonable numerical imbalances and excessive punishment mechanisms (specifically, the complete elimination of gold in no-fishing zones and the unscrupulous interference from shady operators)!

If you are confident enough in your game design, then I wonder if your producer or lead planner would dare to accept my invitation to have an online interview with me tonight in my live stream? Let's chat face-to-face!

We hope your company will not evade the issue but will address the players' demands!

Looking forward to your reply!
