Amid the condemnation of the local media, GTA sales were extremely hot.

The unanimous resistance of the media has become the most powerful means of propaganda for New World, and even a large number of citizens who are not members of New World have joined the ranks of buying games.

It seems that buying a GTA game disc has become very exciting in itself. The more it was reported, the more people wanted to experience this supposedly violent game.

On the first day of the GTA's overseas release, 60,000 copies were sold.

The next day, 63,000 copies.

On the third day, 62,000 copies.

Judging from the data, it seems that there is no increase, but this is because the sales at the sales point have basically reached its maximum capacity, and from the next day, the queue outside the sales point has been getting longer and longer every day, which has obstructed the surrounding traffic, and a large number of police officers have begun to assist Shinsegae in maintaining order on the scene.

Shinsekai was forced to add three new drop-outs in MC City.

The game is selling well with the "help" of the media, but what about the game itself?

In GTA, players don't have any pressure, no bosses, no equipment, dungeons, plots, and missions don't seem to be that important.

Destruction everywhere, crime, in the game, there is no need to have any scruples, the game magnifies the pleasure that the player cannot experience in reality to the maximum.

In a word, in this city, how cool is how to come!

Drive a taxi and hit hundreds of pedestrians along the way, no problem. Shoot in the street, rob the bank, as long as you can run away, no problem.

It's a haven of violence and the best place to vent your emotions.

The upload of game videos has allowed countless players to see what it means to "do whatever you want", which is a pleasant feeling that is even incomparable to any game in New World at present.

has been constrained by morality and law in reality for too long, and people's most primitive ** has been greatly cathartic in the game.

The game was launched for a week, and the total sales were only 2 million copies, but the game zone has already become extremely popular.

"This Nima, it's so cool to watch, I'm so worried that the game can't be listed in Huaxia. ”

"It's cruel, but I love it. ”

"The brain hole of the new world is really too big, such a game can be thought of, and after being suppressed in reality for a long time, people need to find a window to vent. ”

"Oh no, when is GTA coming to France? I can't wait to play this game. ”

Of course, the heated discussion among players is not overwhelmingly pro-game, on the contrary, after watching the video, a significant part of the players are very disgusted with the game.

"I still can't accept this kind of game.,People who like this game.,It's probably all perverted.。 ”

"Although Shinsegae restricts purchases to children over 18 years old, just watching videos can also affect children's minds, and they strongly resist GTA. ”

As a result, the game forum has become the main place for the two sides to fight.

"What's wrong with GTA? A game that wants to rise to the height of three views?"

"I really can't understand why New World has such a game? Isn't this promoting violence!"

"Friends, wake up, find out more of your own reasons, it's like a person telling you, you go and kill, it's cool to kill, and you don't have to be responsible at all, and then you go to kill?"

"Today's young people are already irritable, and under the stimulation of games, players may pursue a more realistic experience, and New World games are good, but they lack a sense of social responsibility. ”

"Why are young people nowadays so irritable? I'm a post-00s generation, and I think I'm fully capable of distinguishing the difference between games and reality. ”

The discussion on both sides is extremely intense, and if it weren't for the strict "shielding word" system of New World Games, it is estimated that the discussion would likely turn into a scolding war.

However, among the countless "discussion" posts, one post has been artificially pinned, and it can be seen that this post is somewhat horizontal.

"GTA hasn't been bought yet, but I can see from the video that killing people in GTA is to be chased by the police, and in Glory of Kings, killing people can be upgraded. ”

The glory of the king is innocent......

Below the post, the player's reply was also extremely violent.

"It makes sense, but I'm speechless. ”

"The glory of the king said, don't bring Lao Tzu!"

"CS kills to get money!"

"Warcraft can have honor for killing people!"

……

Players begin to use their imagination and stay in formation.

Shinsegae has been silent on the matter until April 2, when Shinsegae released its first announcement on the official news page.

"Reducing the global crime rate, New World works with you!"

THE ANNOUNCEMENT CITES A SOCIAL RESEARCH REPORT BY BLUEFLY UNIVERSITY, A WELL-KNOWN LOCAL UNIVERSITY IN MC, UK.

"Does GTA really lead to crime? Studies have shown that within seven days of GTA's release, the crime rate in MC City dropped significantly. ”

The report uses the crime rate data of MC City in the same period in the past five years as a reference, and then compares the crime rate during the release period of the game, and finally forms a table to display it.

The crime rate in MC used to be between 7.31% and 7.62% during the same period, but in the days when the game was popular, the crime rate in MC City actually dropped to less than 4%.

In the report, this strange phenomenon is analyzed mainly from human psychology, criminal psychology, human brain science and other fields.

IN THE FINAL CONCLUSION OF THE REPORT, PRUSS, A RESEARCH PROFESSOR AT BULEFLY UNIVERSITY, GAVE THE FINAL CONCLUSION.

"The previous view that violent games cause crime** is a pure misjudgment, and there is no evidence that there is some kind of malignant promotion between the two. According to our research, violent play can lead to a 'disabling effect'. In other words, if you commit a crime in the game, then the crime in real life will drop a lot. ”

As soon as this announcement came out, it immediately attracted countless onlookers, and the entire public opinion was in an uproar.

GTA doesn't induce crime, but it can also reduce the crime rate?

"Brother has long said that crime is its own reason, don't try to blame the game, but I really didn't expect that GTA can actually reduce the crime rate, this is indeed a bit refreshing. ”

"Is this report really true?"

"I don't think the game is going to be trustworthy, and it's impossible for them to deceive players all over the world with a fake report. ”

"I know that the world's top 100 universities are very good in the field of social science research. ”

"What else can I say? This is the new world, it's a terrible mess! Playing games can actually reduce the crime rate, and I'm drunk. ”

SOON, THE MAJOR MEDIA BEGAN TO REPRINT THE BLUEFLY UNIVERSITY RESEARCH REPORT, WHICH ALSO CONVINCED THOSE WHO WERE SKEPTICAL OF THE REPORT THAT THE REPORT WAS TRUE.

……

Pete was driving to NY with a few friends, and the four young men were dancing to the rock 'n' roll on the radio while making the most of the broadcast.

Finally, a song ends.

"Brothers, how do you feel? Did this TT song make you feel good? Okay, let's take a break. Let's take a look at what's in the news. ”

"New World Games officially opens GTA release channels in 17 cities in the United States on April 2nd!"

"Oh my God, GTA is finally coming to America! My brothers, are you ready, shout, let's free ourselves in the game!

"Pete, hurry up! It's going to go on sale tomorrow! Don't you know how long those stupid X's will have to wait in line when the UK release?"

"Fuckyou, Bran, I'm fast enough!"

A dilapidated old Sturt car sped past the intercity.

When the world realized that GTA was not a game drug, but a good medicine, more and more cities took the initiative to find a new world and asked to introduce this game. This is the polar opposite of the previous scenario when the GTA was rejected.

At the same time, with the emergence of more research reports, GTA can relieve stress, release the crime in people's hearts**, and ultimately make people's role in reducing crime rates in reality more people are also more accepted.

However, New World has always insisted on one thing, players under the age of 18 are prohibited from buying GTA, and once discovered, the player's entire New World account will be permanently blocked.

"Will GTA reduce crime?" said Lindy on the beach, lying on a recliner, smiling and shaking her head.

WHEN IT FIRST INVESTED IN BLUEFLY UNIVERSITY TO DO RELATED RESEARCH, NEW WORLD REALLY ASKED TO REPORT ON THIS MATTER IN A FACTUAL MANNER, AND IT WAS PRECISELY BECAUSE OF THIS THAT BLUEFLY AGREED TO DO THIS RESEARCH.

Anyway, it is realistic to seek truth from facts, the other party is still willing to invest, and it can increase its popularity, so why not.

However, perhaps only a game god like Lindy, who has experienced countless games, will understand that GTA is like a fast medicine that can reduce the crime rate, it can indeed alleviate people's crime **, but Chinese understand a truth, is the drug three poison, the accumulation of drugs in the body is good, but once the overdose, or in some case triggers the toxicity of residual drugs in the body, then it will also break out more violent diseases.

Lindy doesn't have much social responsibility, but that doesn't mean he wants the world to be bad.

"If it's under control, GTA is still good medicine. Lindy put away her phone and walked reflexively to the game development center.
