Starting with Genshin Impact, the whole world is going crazy for it.

"Everyone, you have to listen to me! Go play this game right now!"

"Now, streaming CS on the Orca platform gives you a chance to win big prizes."

"There can't be anyone who doesn't know this incredibly fun shooting game, right? Really? Really?"

Zhou Tiankuo can see many videos about Counter-Strike by browsing a short video app.

Some of these were made by streamers, while others were made by ordinary players.

"Is this game really that popular now?" Zhou Tiankuo himself was skeptical.

He felt that some people were trying to drive traffic to the game, but the problem was that he hadn't taken the promotion and marketing seriously, so how did so many "ads" appear?

Zhou Tiankuo thought for a moment.

The game itself is probably very popular, which is why it has become a key to generating traffic on short video platforms.

He opened the system data.

On its first day of release, download numbers were indeed lower than those of Genshin Impact and League of Legends.

Zhou Tiankuo then looked at the next set of data.

But in the following days, the popularity of CS far exceeded Zhou Tiankuo's expectations!

[Day 2 downloads: 5894534]

[Day 3 downloads: 7856341]

……

"I thought the first day would see the highest number of downloads, but I didn't expect it to increase further afterward."

Zhou Tiankuo was genuinely surprised.

He originally thought that this game was only suitable for players who had experience with FPS games or liked this type of game.

"Look how wrong I was with this game back then..."

Zhou Tiankuo stared at the data in the backend, lost in thought.

However, the increase in downloads is certainly also related to the support from the Orca platform.

It was also related to Zhou Tiankuo's Weibo post that day, where he gave away prizes.

But what's truly important is that the game itself is excellent and of high quality.

Zhou Tiankuo's choice to create the CS game was also related to his childhood memories.

Now, seeing how many people love this game, even in a parallel world, Zhou Tiankuo still felt a distant sense of beauty.

It's like traveling through time and space to high-five your original self!

Zhou Tiankuo shook his head.

What's wrong with me lately? Why do I keep thinking about the past?

Zhou Tiankuo checked his plans.

Today is the day to update Teamfight Tactics.

He released a trailer on the official League of Legends website a few days ago, and it's unclear how people will react to it.

He opened his own live stream.

"It's been a long time since I've done a live stream, and this time it's a sudden broadcast. I wonder how many people will watch..."

Zhou Tiankuo murmured.

Unexpectedly, many people arrived within minutes of the broadcast starting.

Wow, is that Tiankuo Studio?

[Tiankuo Studio is awesome!]

I saw this on the trending topics list these past few days and came to support it. I didn't expect there would be a live stream after I followed!

[Newcomers should definitely check out the games from Tiankuo Studio; they're incredibly fun and so much better than those plagiarized games.]

Let's all give it our support! It's a great game, but the studio doesn't really know how to market it!

Zhou Tiankuo was deeply moved to see so many fans in his live stream.

"Did you all come to support me because you saw it trending on social media...?"

"Actually, there's no need for that at all. My opinion on this trending topic is... just ignore it. I'm not that pitiful. Plagiarism will always exist, and some game companies will definitely take this shortcut."

Even if a game is inherently original, similar games will still attract a large number of fans and downloads.

Because what's popular isn't just one game, but a whole genre of games.

This explains why, after a game becomes popular, a large number of manufacturers rush to release similar games. This applies not only to games but to many other products.

"You guys are way too optimistic. I don't believe it."

I agree. If my favorite game is plagiarized, I'll loudly condemn it.

Me too! Penguins are so shameless, I don't like playing their games.

In any case, just supporting Tiankuo Studio is enough!

Zhou Tiankuo was about to say something when he suddenly saw the colorful bullet comments.

[You think this way because you're not afraid of others copying you at all, because your game studio has always been at the forefront.]

But what about studios that don't have your continuous production capacity? They might spend a lot of money to make a game, only to have it copied by plagiarists.

They'll definitely mind, so I think protecting original content and preserving genuine works is very important.

Seeing these comments, Zhou Tiankuo seemed to be deep in thought.

"Okay, let me explain. Actually, what I just said, I don't think I'm that pitiful. I'm not afraid of being plagiarized; I just wanted to reassure you..."

"In fact, I have already made a request to the relevant associations to determine what is original and what is plagiarism."

"I just hope that everyone enjoys playing our games and that there's no need to get so angry about plagiarism."

"That would defeat our original intention of making games for people to play."

Plagiarism is subject to legal judgment, and Zhou Tiankuo will naturally not let plagiarists get away with it.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this for now. I know what I'm doing."

"Our studio will not let those who plagiarize get away with it."

Okay, okay, we're relieved to hear that.

[Tiankuo Studio truly lives up to its reputation!]

[This game studio truly brings joy to everyone, thank you...]

He's so good... I'm crying so much...

Zhou Tiankuo felt the atmosphere become cheerful after looking at the comments.

"I'm doing this live stream today to show everyone the new Teamfight Tactics mode."

"As you've probably already seen the announcement, the League of Legends client will be available tonight after maintenance and updates."

"So, as usual, let me introduce myself first."

Zhou Tiankuo opened his Teamfight Tactics test server.

That's one of the advantages of being a game designer.

That means that while others didn't even know what the game looked like, he was already playing it to his heart's content.

"Teamfight Tactics is an auto-chess game, which is actually a very new game mode... I haven't seen any similar games on the market before."

"Of course, if you have any information, you can let me know and I will investigate."

Zhou Tiankuo said this.

But secretly, I was laughing to myself.

He has already searched for the games in this world.

There is no similar game at all.

Therefore, even if Teamfight Tactics is a mode that was incorporated into League of Legends.

But Zhou Tiankuo is still confident that this game will definitely be a huge hit!

Check the player count before releasing the mobile version.

That completes the side quest given by the system.

Chapter 56 Update: Teamfight Tactics - A Brand New Game

This time, Zhou Tiankuo's live stream did not last long.

The main point is to give everyone a simple understanding of Teamfight Tactics.

Moreover, this special mode can only be played if there are players online simultaneously on the test server.

Playing against the computer isn't actually that fun.

"Okay, that's all for the brief introduction."

Zhou Tiankuo has explained the basic gameplay to everyone.

As for the specific gameplay and equipment, players will have to figure it out themselves.

But since the maintenance and update were scheduled for tonight and the game would be available the next day, many viewers were distracted.

[We can play it tomorrow, why would I need you to explain it here?]

This time is different from before; you used to keep everyone in suspense for ages.

[Yes, who decides the release date for your studio's game? Could you perhaps offer some feedback to them?]

We're really angry that you always fail to release the game when players are really looking forward to it.

[You guys don't even try to hide it during your livestreams, letting those who plagiarize your games see them! But the players can't play them, it's infuriating!]

Seeing that the comments were all like this, Zhou Tiankuo scratched his head.
