There is no girlfriend, in a big city like the magic capital, and there is no dating circle in his hometown, as a fat white otaku, the only way to spend this Christmas Eve is to play.

Perhaps on this damp winter night with cold rain, only the virtual world can bring him some warmth.

Back at his rental house, Chubby Bai ordered a takeout, settled dinner, and then sat down in front of the computer and opened the steam client.

He started by playing a few games of CS:GO. After going through several bad cycles of opening, buying guns, charging, and getting headshots, I quit the game in a fit of rage.

Then, Fat Bai opened "Doom Slayer" again, shot at the demons fiercely, and vented.

At about eleven o'clock in the night, Chubby Bai quit the game, yawned, looked at the hundreds of games in his Steam game library, and was stunned for a while.

"I always feel that the game is getting more and more boring now. Chubby Bai sighed.

Today's games, hidden behind the increasingly refined graphics, are more and more empty and boring game content, cookie-cutter gameplay, not polished at all, rough as sandpaper connotation details, making it more and more difficult to arouse interest.

On Thanksgiving, Fat White also took advantage of the steam discount to buy a few 3A-level masterpieces.

But for each one, he played for about ten hours at most, and then put it down.

Those shocking and grand cinematic performances, as well as high-definition images that can see the pores of the game characters, can no longer arouse his enthusiasm for gaming.

"Looks like I'm still going to have to watch Terraria. Chubby Bai thought.

He is a loyal player of "Oriental Gensokyo Story", and now he has accumulated more than 300 hours of gameplay, and all his achievements have been completed a long time ago.

Although this game borrows from many types of games in terms of gameplay, and does not have the new game concept of "Terraria", it is already a huge innovation to be able to seamlessly integrate so many game modes such as simulation management, role-playing, social development, etc. into one game.

Moreover, the picture style of "Oriental Gensokyo Story" reminds Chubby Bai of the happy time when he was a child in the game hall and spent a "huge sum" of three yuan an hour to play SFC.

Not only was he able to get the fun of the game from "Oriental Gensokyo Story", but he was also awakened to his childlike innocence and feelings.

So far, Fat Bai has become a loyal fan of Terracotta Entertainment and Qin Han.

He believes that this Chinese producer can bring one classic game after another to the majority of players.

Fat White is the first group of veteran players in China to pay attention to "Terraria".

From the debut of the Tokyo Game Show, to the continuous disclosure of new game information, to the overwhelming live demos, and finally at the TGA Awards Ceremony, it won the "Most Anticipated Game" award...... Fat Bai watched this game step by step to today, which is about to be released.

Seeing that there was not much time left at zero o'clock, Chubby Bai didn't have the heart to play the game again. He turned on his mobile phone and swiped the circle of friends for a while, and his eyes were full of the current people's experience of playing on Christmas Eve, and he suddenly felt irritable.

Chubby Bai simply threw down his phone and went to take a shower.

When I came out of the bathroom, I felt refreshed and found that it was almost twelve o'clock.

He immediately opened the Terraria sales page on Steam.

"Alas, why doesn't Terracotta Entertainment engage in pre-sales and deluxe editions? ”

Fat Bai sighed and stared at the time.

When the time jumps from "23:59" to "00:00" in the bottom right corner of the computer screen, he immediately buys Terraria.

"118 yuan, not expensive. And it is estimated that I can play this game for three or four hundred hours, and the game of terracotta warriors and horses entertainment is a good deal!"

He sighed.

During the time of waiting for the game to be downloaded, Fat White casually strolled around Steam, wanting to see if it also started from zero o'clock, and will last until January 3 next year, a full ten days of "Christmas-New Year's Day Winter Special", is there any exciting news.

At this moment, the chubby white mobile phone kept ringing the notification ringtone. He opened his phone and found that his mailbox had suddenly sent a lot of emails.

It's all the news of the discount on your own Steam wishlist.

"No, "Prince of the Desert 3" is actually 60% off?!" Fat Bai blinked, thinking that he was dazzled.

"Prince of the Desert 3" is an action-adventure game that was only released by Willedy in May this year. Well-known IP, 3A production, sales are very good.

The price of the game is 288 yuan. Fat Bai originally thought that such a new game that has only been on sale for more than half a year has good word-of-mouth sales, and in this Christmas special season, even if it is a discount promotion, the discount will be about 30% at the top.

This is also the initial discount ratio set by most game manufacturers for triple-A masterpieces that still have sales potential.

"Not only "Prince of the Desert 3", but also "Night Hunter" and "Chaos Theory 5", all of which are discounted by more than 60%?

Surprised, Fat Bai browsed the Steam page again, and found that it was not only the Willy family that went crazy.

Other major game manufacturers have also given their game products a high promotional discount. From the 50% discount on the new hit games, all the way to the 70% discount on the old games, and even the extreme, there is a 90% super discount!

Countless games have been sold at all-time lows.

Such a high-intensity, large-scale Christmas promotion detonated the steam community at once, and countless players discussed it, chanting slogans such as "XX conscience", "Long live XX", "I will never hack XX again", "XX road to fans", like a carnival.

As for the players who were originally hotly discussed and looking forward to the release of "Terraria", they had already entered the game at this time, and disappeared from the community for a while.

The same goes for chubby white.

Although the Christmas discount is very strong and very tempting, the budget he left for Christmas is only more than 100 dollars to buy "Terraria". In order not to eat dirt until next month's salary, he can only reluctantly ignore those tempting discounts.

"Don't think about it so much, let's start playing Terraria. ”

After the game is downloaded, the fat white dots the "Start" button.

Three hours later, because he had to go to work tomorrow, Chubby Bai struggled and forced himself to leave the game world.

"It's so much fun!" he couldn't help but praise.

"Terraria" does not disappoint, not only perfectly showing the selling points that Terracotta Entertainment has advertised before - random starts, a completely free sandbox world, etc., but also rich in content, completely beyond imagination.
