Chapter 1149: The Game Changes the World (Three Changes)

Start with a hero and end with a hero.

No one expected the final ending, that it was the Duke of Berval who took over the burden from Verdin.

Everyone didn't expect this old friend to usher in such a cruel fate.

He was once the regent of Stormwind, the Grand Duke, the Grand Lord of the Dreadnought Expeditionary Force, and the commander of the Alliance's Seventh Legion.

He was ordered to assist the little prince Anduin in inheriting the throne, but he was also bewitched by Onexia, and it was not until the appearance of Marshal Wendsol that he came to his senses and launched an expedition against the Black Dragon Princess.

Without hesitation, he led the dreadnought expeditionary force on the journey of the Gate of Damnation, but was defeated by an ambush.

The Lich King brought the surviving Duke of Boval back to Icecrown Fortress to transform him into a Death Knight, but Boval's strong will made him torture and never give in.

Eventually, he took over the Lich King's helmet, and he was no longer the leader he was to follow, but he was destined to become an immortal hero to be remembered by all players.

At this point, the story of the Lich King has finally ushered in the final curtain call.

……

……

It's been three years since World of Warcraft went live, and the game has been loved by tens of millions of players.

This unprecedented work can be said to be almost unknown and known, from the beginning of its launch, it has been in a state of constant updates, and the continuous introduction of new content has always made players haunted and excited.

For such a game, in fact, there is no need for any ratings or evaluations, it is regarded as the pinnacle of the legendary designer Chen Mo, and perhaps in the next many years, even Chen Mo himself will find it difficult to develop a game that can surpass it.

After all, how many games did Chen Mo spend ten years paving?

But that doesn't mean players don't have new expectations, because Oasis 2.0 is about to go live.

In the new Oasis World, players will have access to a huge virtual globe, a new world based on the real one.

With this as the center, players can freely travel through different parallel universes and embark on exciting adventures in single or multiplayer.

To date, Oasis has more than 5,000 different game units and counting.

For many players, they may not be able to play all the games in Oasis in their lifetime.

Moreover, with the rapid development of virtual reality technology, people's lives are also undergoing earth-shaking changes.

After continuous discounts and price reductions, the price of the matrix game pod has been compressed to an unprecedented 20,000 yuan, and the time ratio of sleep mode has also changed from the previous 1:2 to the current 1:4.

In other words, each player can exchange 6 hours of sleep in reality for 24 hours of gameplay.

Every player has two lives.

It is precisely because of the low price and ultra-cost-effective sleep mode that the matrix game cabin has become a must for almost every family, with global sales exceeding 50 million, breaking 100 million, and soon moving towards 200 million.

Even for many families who are not wealthy, the demand for matrix gaming pods has been ahead of the queue for PCs and private cars.

For the wealthy, the matrix game pod is no longer a symbol of wealth, and they have turned to a new virtual reality device: the latest matrix glasses.

Matrix glasses are becoming more and more compact, but more and more versatile. Some people even speculate that in the near future, matrix glasses can replace the matrix game pod, and have both VR and AR functions, taking players to enjoy the game world of mixed reality.

Even at that time, it is difficult to say whether the matrix glasses are glasses or not, maybe it will become a small ring, as long as you stick it on your temple, you can travel through different fantasy worlds at will.

Games are profoundly changing the social structure of the entire world, and they are also changing many deep-rooted concepts.

More and more people are starting to see gaming as a special way of life, as another world, as another reality, rather than just some kind of entertainment.

More and more people regard the content of the game as an after-dinner conversation.

More and more people are gaining another identity in addition to their identities as students, freelancers, coders, teachers, workers, and so on: gamers.

Last year, there have been three theme parks in Magic City, Neon and Lighthouse Country, and although more and more people prefer to venture in the virtual world, there are also many big cities around the world that hope to enhance their attraction to tourists through such large-scale theme parks.

The characters on the Thunder game platform are about to become cultural symbols, deeply implanted in the hearts of every player around the world.

And the headquarters of Thunder Interactive Entertainment is about to become a holy place in the minds of players, and a large number of tourists will visit every day.

Many teenagers came to the headquarters of Thunder Mutual Entertainment, as if they were coming to the amusement park for the first time, and they were dizzying, and they didn't know where to look.

On the first floor of the hall, a middle-aged man with fairy wind and bones was holding a tourist's hand and wanted to tell her fortune very kindly: "This eldest sister, what are you?"

"Hey, eldest sister, why did you kick me when I told your fortune? Security, security!"

A few visitors were taking pictures of the statues of various game characters in the lobby and asking where the figures were sold.

Jia Peng, Wen Lingwei and Chang Xiuya were surrounding a capsule toy machine in the hall.

Wen Lingwei was very speechless: "How many times do you have to try before you realize the fact that you are really a non-chief?"

Jia Peng said unrelentingly: "This capsule toy machine is newly bought, I really still have a chance, you believe me!"

A player's mobile phone suddenly rang while resting on the sofa, and he immediately took out his mobile phone and started a crazy operation.

As a result, a minute later, the player shouted, "Damn, it's gone in the blink of an eye??" Zhou Jiangping, your uncle!! Does your women's commitment even count, huh??"

In the office, Su Jinyu was angry at several executives: "I said that I bought fruit to let you buy fruit mobile phones, who asked you to buy other companies for me?!"

One executive tried to struggle: "Well, Fruit Company is a new company that has risen recently, and we all agree that it has a good future in the mobile phone industry, and I didn't expect you to just want to buy a mobile phone...... Besides, isn't Mr. Chen quite satisfied with this acquisition......"

Su Jinyu glared: "Moving out of him can't cover up your mistakes!" Go back and give me the new horror game Resident Evil three times, and let your portable AI record and report back to me!"

A young female assistant was outside the door of the conference room and wanted to come in, but when she saw this battle, she decided to slip away, but she was immediately stopped by Su Jinyu.

"Don't go yet, have you changed the plan?"

The female assistant came in timidly and handed over the plan to Su Jinyu.

Su Jinyu quickly flipped through it: "Well, it's very well written. But to rewrite. ”

Female assistant: "???"

In another office, Qian Kun was screaming helplessly: "Why are you scolding me again!" This krypton gold event was obviously requested by the store manager himself! Why didn't this group of players listen to me??"

"Well, in that case, don't blame me for revenge on society, this week's half-price games will add ten more, no, thirty! I'd like to see how many hands you have left to chop off, huh......"
