This night was destined to be restless.
When "The Seed" officially spread on the Internet and was downloaded by major companies around the world, setting off a wave of enthusiasm for creating a new VR world, the various criticisms and controversies that had been carried out against the full stealth technology disappeared invisibly. It was reduced by an unknown amount, and was replaced by the topic of "The Seed".
After knowing that this program allows any company to easily create its own imaginary world and develop new games, and it is launched by the state to ensure no harm, no disasters, and no worries, people began to The beginning was guided.
If someone else uploaded this program and claimed that it was absolutely harmless, people would not believe it.
After the social impact brought about by the SAO incident and the ALO incident, people have great distrust of complete stealth technology and will no longer easily believe such remarks.
But if the country personally comes forward and makes such a statement, then no matter what, some people will still choose to believe it.
Especially major companies, they already understand that it is impossible to completely ban total stealth technology, and there are even many who plan to make a fortune relying on total stealth technology. Now that countries have come forward, they will naturally provide support one after another. , intending to seize the opportunity and create a real world in today's market.
As a result, major companies not only expressed their willingness to trust the country, but also immediately bought the right to use "The Seed" after learning that the royalties were very low, and even required 50% of the income from using "The Seed". All the conditions for surrendering to the state were agreed.
Rather, it’s okay not to agree, right
In the future, complete stealth technology will definitely become the mainstream in all walks of life, and the country has made it clear that it wants to promote this technology, rather than stop its development. If you don't keep up with the big forces now, you will be eliminated sooner or later.
Moreover, even if the income is only 50%, it will be a very amazing income for major companies in the completely stealth technology society that is about to become mainstream.
Therefore, major companies are very self-aware, and one by one they have taken action on "The Seed".
Of course, there are also some voices who say that it does not matter even if you do not use "The Seed". As long as you develop better programs and systems than "The Seed", you will gain both fame and fortune.
Unfortunately, Luo Zhen also said before that, except for Kayaba Akihiko, not even the country can develop better programs and systems than "The Seed". If those companies could do it, Kayaba Akihiko would not be called a genius. , let alone achieve such a big reputation.
Under such circumstances, these companies are absolutely following a slow pace. In addition to stepping back from the brink and returning to shore, they can still have a place in the next market. Otherwise, they will have to fully deal with the consequences of overestimating their own capabilities. Just swallow it.
While major companies are using "The Seed" to create new VR games, those VR games that had once announced that they would shut down their servers have all been re-operated immediately.
For example, this is the case for the new student ALO.
Not only can the files of old ALO players be inherited, but also the original SAO players can inherit their previous character files and adventure in the new virtual world. Even Aincrad will be loaded and loaded. Incorporating various elements from both SAO and ALO, a brand new fantasy world was formed, the official announced to the world.
As soon as this incident came out, there were naturally countless people who responded.
Although due to the SAO incident and the ALO incident, both games have lost a lot of original players and will not return, but there are also many people who choose to return.
At least, in Agil's bar, led by Yu Luozhen, many people decided to settle in the new ALO and start adventures again.
As a result, the combined number of players of the two games was actually more than the number of players of either SAO or ALO game at its peak. The ratio of players between the two games was about 4:6, and a full 40% of them were original players. For SAO players, this shows how many people have announced their return.
So, when the new ALO resumed operation that night, the players who logged in were said to have reached a record that had never been achieved in the old ALO.
Then, players began to adapt to the impact of the new system.
SAO players need to adapt to the use of flight systems, racial characteristics, and magic settings.
ALO players need to adapt to the use of the sword skill system, guild system, etc.
After adapting, these players formed a vanguard and flew densely towards the sky of the new ALO.
Just because, there, a floating city came.
The floating city named "Aincrad".
The Demonic City that once imprisoned 10,000 players and caused the deaths of thousands of players has now become a high-profile new map in the new ALO, attracting challenges from countless people.
Players flying to the floating city need to start from the starting town on the first floor. Just like the former SAO players, they open up the wasteland step by step, go to the maze area step by step, and find the room of the boss guarding the floor. , and then defeat the boss of the defensive layer, then you can go to the second layer, and keep going up.
Of course, Aincrad is still the same Aincrad, but considering the strength of today's players, the difficulty of the challenge has been adjusted.
Otherwise, if the strength of the defensive boss on the first floor is still the same as in the SAO period, any player can defeat it alone.
Therefore, Aincrad in the new ALO is known as an extremely difficult new map. Even the monsters on the first level are much stronger than those in SAO. It is almost dangerous to fight alone. Players still need to form a strategy team to challenge. Just fine.
However, after the factor of death is eliminated, players naturally rarely want to form a legion regardless of the target to challenge. Either people from the same guild challenge, or people from the same race, in short, various situations They all appeared, making the first level strategy much more difficult than during the SAO period.
However, within just a few days, the defending boss on the first floor was defeated.
He was defeated by the original SAO strategy team led by Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen then euphemistically called it...
"After all, this is a place we have conquered before, so it is natural for us to get a good start."
As soon as these words came out, countless people followed him, even the ALO players were convinced.
Since then, Aincrad has been challenged by countless players, making players endlessly move towards higher floors.
Just like that, without realizing it, a year has passed since SAO was cleared and the victims of the death game returned.
In this year, full stealth technology has developed more and more rapidly, allowing various VR games to appear one after another.
The voices that once called for a ban on full stealth technology have disappeared.
However, new problems are still occurring.
