In 2046, one year after the exploration of the Oort Cloud, electromagnetic waves carrying massive amounts of data returned to the solar system through the long space of the universe, becoming the first official reply letter from the advance team.

"Did you get to Oort Cloud?" When Cao Chuan saw the content inside, he traveled so long that he had to protect the integrity of the information by resending and checking the code, which led to a decrease in the amount of real information, and he still saw a lot of new things.

"Oort cloud matter measurement? Comet dissection experiments? A cosmic lighthouse? When he saw the reports, his face was filled with joy, and at the same time he regretted that he could not go there in person.

The control of the solar system is not enough, assuming that he goes to the centaur alpha, it will take 4 years to convey the will to the other side of the world, the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty of the ancient Night Rabbit Kingdom, the emperor's control of the country is like this, and there is no need to say much about the result.

So he'll have to hold on for another 10 years, 20 years, until the solar system is more stable, and then he can be free, and now, let the advance team use their talents, but they seem to have a little problem?

Cao Chuan pondered, the limited information on it made him confused, he couldn't find the key to the problem, saying that there was so much uncertainty, it was normal to not find it, did the report of the advance team really tell him to solve the problem?

There is no way, as a consultant, sometimes you have to take on the responsibility of solving these problems, Cao Chuan complained while still watching patiently.

It turned out that the advance team had encountered an unexpected problem - a mass mental illness, no one knew the exact cause, no one knew how to solve it, in Cao Chuan's view, the only absolutely effective thing was to brainwash and instill some seemingly correct theories into the problematic employees. Let them fight for such a theory, so that the psychological aspect will be much more normal.

However, this solution is obviously not the most perfect, and the advance team is already trying, not as extreme as him, but through heavy work to reduce the possibility of the team's cranky thinking. This in turn reduces risk.

"So, what other way? For example, a more general approach. ”

Since the information given by the advance team was so vague and had to solve the problem, he had to find a way to find a common way, and a few hours later, after clearing Warhammer 40K Emperor's Road, which Blizzard had outsourced, he thought of something.

"Entertaining, relaxing the mind, this should be a universal solution... And. It has to be a time-consuming recreational activity, and you can't be too impatient, otherwise how can you make the players have a way to persist for 10 years, 100 years, so as to maintain their mental health? ”

"So it's only games?" Cao Chuan thought about it, and picked the most well-known games in the world, and those included in the list were-

Diablo 4 is a fun game of playing equipment, and it takes more than 6 months to graduate

Monster Hunter R is a game of monster abuse. Graduation is more than 12 months old

The Elder Scrolls 6 is fun with endless main quests and more than 3 years after graduation

Minecraft is fun with the sandbox-themed world. Graduated more than 5 years ago

…….

And the graduation time here refers to the process of players from the game rookie to the pit, and then to the peak of life, and then it is basically a burnout period, if nothing new appears, there will be no way to generate new fun.

Therefore. Only the game that has been graduated for a long time is what he wants, a game that can solve the mental illness of the advance team members.

I have to say that even if he seems to have plenty of time, he doesn't have the courage to challenge these games that have to be played on a monthly basis. If it weren't for the fact that Planet Frontier gave people a lot of free time during sailing, heavy games would have been defeated by light games 10 years ago.

To add that there is no online game, because of the 4-year communication delay, there is no way to set up any online game server, unless quantum entanglement is made.

"But what to choose?" Cao Chuan felt that his idea was not bad, and he didn't even use the rule simulation, and solved the problem strongly, the problem is what game to provide to the advance team members, and it is not necessarily necessary to copy the game as it is, it seems that it may be a little short of meeting the needs of interstellar travel in units of 10 years.

The conclusion needs to be improved, the best of these games combined, and most importantly, the characteristics of the crew of the astronautics, and find a way to burn the time further and recreate a new game.

Cao Chuan contacted Bethesda Moon Studio, an expert in the production of this kind of time-burning relaxation game, and invited a well-known script writer from the Rising Sun Country, hoping to provide more story lines for "spiritual healing", so that the spiritual world of the advance team wandering in the universe can be cared for with love.

No one will refuse the temptation of money, and the East Galaxy Company has not deliberately restricted their creation**, only asking them to guarantee the effect, which is definitely a good thing for a company or a writer.

The only consequence is a bounce, that is, a postponement, even if the content is added or deleted on the existing basis, until 2049, the virtual reality entertainment game "Starting from Zero" for the advance team members is split into countless bytes of information packets and sent to the other side of the vast universe.

While transmitting information to another world, Cao Chuan did not forget to make another profit, and launched a civilian version in the name of the world's top game studio and the ghost script writer of the Rising Sun Kingdom.

How to look at the combination of East and West is full of gimmicks, "Starting from Zero" did not climb to the TOP1 of the sales list immediately after its release, but the sales volume is still enough to pay for itself, and with the intensification of communication, the subsequent sales decline is slow.

In other words, this is a long-lived work, and as a result, many game producers have wondered what is going on, why such a patchwork or even time-burning work has a chance to make it to the world's most famous game platinum palace, that's a story for another time.

500G compressed resources, after at least one and a half years of transmission, can be received by the advance team, plus the transmission journey of more than 1 light year, the process will definitely produce a large number of data errors, verification and repair, and deployment.

So at least in mid-2051, the advance team members can experience "Starting from Zero". Fortunately, they are all sleeping during this time, and when they wake up, their bodies are still sleeping in the frozen cabin, and their consciousness will remain in the electronic virtual world, bringing excitement, pleasure, love, and anxiety through the simulated dopamine effect, so that all kinds of time passes quickly, work is boring, and the inexplicable mental illness brought about by the monotony of the environment will be solved.

Then, when they arrived at Centaur Alpha, they must be full of energy, full of confidence, positive, and move forward in the face of difficulties, at least Cao Chuan believes so much. (To be continued.) )
