To ascend, I had no choice but to create games

Chapter 607: 348 Chapter 607: 348 Fang Cheng Studio…

How did you associate “healing,” “relaxing,” and “15+” together!

Don’t tell us this is a relaxing game about chopping people up!

However, after playing, they found the game to be quite relaxing.

Players had numerous careers to choose from, they could be a postman in a small town or a little fisherman in a seaside city.

If they didn’t have a preferred profession, they could also customize one and then slowly develop it in a city.

But because of the “15+” tag, many players were a bit nervous at the start, however, after a period of play, they found the game to be quite leisurely.

Ten minutes in the real world was a day in the game, players could engage in their favorite jobs in the game, or do nothing at all and just laze away their idle days.

Although the game had its own main storyline, or rather personal goals, it didn’t matter if you didn’t complete them, leaving them be was also fine.

The quality of the game was very high, and all the settings were up to Fang Cheng Studio’s usual standard, but after experiencing it for dozen hours, some reviewers put forward their opinions.

“This game, could it be a bit too bland?”

“Yes, indeed. I won’t deny that relaxing games can be fun, but isn’t this one a bit too relaxing? I was always hoping that the mayor of my little town would be a psycho killer so that my martial arts would have a place to be used. However, he showed no such tendencies, he was just a pure good guy.”

“I’m working as a prison guard, but the criminals here are too righteous. They just follow the schedule I’ve laid out for them and have never even attempted to escape. The only time they did something out of the ordinary was having an extra piece of cake during New Year’s, which makes my neighbors seem more inclined to crime than they are.”

“Yes, that’s right, I wanted to be a mafia boss, but the underworld here is too polite. Assassinations are notified an hour in advance, and they only proceed after receiving a reply, really speechless.”

“Could it be that this game is promoting The Five Stresses and The Four Points of Beauty?”

“Previous commenter, you’ve just revealed your age.”

Compared to other games from Fang Cheng Studio, “Wonderful Life” was indeed a bit bland.

Players found no serious conspiracies, nor any grand narratives; their daily lives were just quietly going about their routines, like a lukewarm cup of water.

Of course, there were some players who liked this style, tirelessly living in this world, savoring a different kind of life, and then find different kinds of fun here.

However, among those who played the games, there were some who played while mocking it.

Qian Xiaohao was one of them.

They say “wealth doesn’t last three generations,” but Qian Xiaohao was an exception.

And the important means to maintain his family wealth was to forbid his relatives from starting their own businesses.

Qian Xiaohao’s grandfather was very self-aware; he knew that their money came quite unexpectedly, and that their family’s genes weren’t really meant for making money.

If he let his descendants try their hand at it, their family’s fortune would soon be squandered. It was better to leave the money in a trust and live off the interest.

Indeed, Qian Xiaohao’s grandfather’s judgment proved correct.

While other contemporaneous tycoons went bankrupt and disappeared without a trace, Qian Xiaohao’s family, on the other hand, earned a nice income by laying low, with estates and mansions bought abroad providing a substantial revenue each year. Although they weren’t very prominent, their lives were very comfortable.

However, people always have a certain suicidal inclination to prove themselves.

Qian Xiaohao originally wanted to make a name for himself in the gaming industry, but after blowing through his startup capital, he took the remaining money to invest in the gaming guild industry, aiming to create a large-scale gaming guild through capital.

“God of Cookery” was his first step, and while it initially went well, Gong Gong caused a setback in his plans, then Wu Wei snatched away the “Food God” title he was determined to win, making him realize he seemed to have failed again.

He was now so poor he only had a few million left, and could only live on pocket money from his family every month, but Qian Xiaohao’s restless spirit hadn’t faded, and he still harbored thoughts of making a comeback.

Researching Fang Cheng Studio’s games was one of the things he needed to do recently.

Fang Cheng Studio’s games have been such a success that there must be something unique about them.

As long as I can thoroughly understand these unique aspects, I’ll be able to excel in any field in the future.

However, after playing “Wonderful Life” for a few hours, he couldn’t help but lament, “This game is so boring.”

In the game, he plays a live streamer whose daily routine consists of playing games, writing review reports, drafting documents according to different game genres, and then publishing those documents.

This job requires him to stay in his streaming room all day, and audience tips are only enough for three meals, he would’ve starved to death if it wasn’t for the occasional charity from the lady next door.

Even though there are guides online and some say that the streamer route in this game is the easiest to achieve, Qian Xiaohao has always disliked following guides.

After all, why use your brain if you can solve problems with money?

Unfortunately, you can’t spend money in this game, and the multiplayer mode can only be unlocked through the single-player mode, otherwise he would have soared long ago.

Moreover, the lady next door is up to no good; several times, she hinted that her toilet was clogged, asking him to help clear it when he had time, so everyone could relax a bit.

Are you asking me to unclog the toilet?

You’re trying to unclog me!

The NPCs in this game play really wild.

And it’s not just the lady next door, the other female NPCs in the game are also very enthusiastic.

There seems to be a particularly adoring college girl downstairs who sticks to him closely every day, making him suspect that she has ulterior motives.

After all, his character is still at the starting stage, unkempt and without time to take courses to enhance his charm, seemingly without any appeal.

Would a vibrant, cosplay-loving girl be interested in such a person?

Feeling the game getting more and more boring, Qian Xiaohao wanted to switch to a different character and experience it all over again.

However, just as the thought crossed his mind, he discovered that his streamer persona had landed a small commercial deal.

His reputation as a streamer wasn’t great, so he hardly ever got deals like this. This one would give him some extra income, and he could add an egg to his meals to get some protein, slightly increasing his stamina.

This commercial deal sparked a bit of interest in him, and he decided to see what outcome it would lead to after completing it.

But when he opened up the game sent by the client, he found out that it was a streamer simulator.

The content of the simulator was quite mundane. It involved playing a streamer and progressing through the game, playing games, and it was even more boring than “Wonderful Life.”

However, as he played on, Qian Xiaohao felt that something was off.

The streamer in this game…

Sounds like me, doesn’t it?

The streamer in the game also had a passionate lady next door, a cute college girl downstairs, and a daily routine just like his own, essentially a carbon copy of himself.

Looking up in confusion, Qian Xiaohao wondered if someone had planted a camera near him, how else could his life be reproduced so accurately?

Ending his broadcast in bewilderment, Qian Xiaohao left his rental and then decided to go out for some food.

Just as he stepped out, he heard a door open. The lady from across the way came out with a bowl of tomato beef, smiling at Qian Xiaohao and saying, “Just in time, I’ve stewed some beef. Would you like to join me?”

Upon hearing this, Qian Xiaohao felt like his brain might explode.

He had heard that line before!

Right in the commercial game he just played!
