Chapter 335 - I just want to see you guys get abused

Chen Mo’s Weibo caused a huge wave of anger among the players. We’ve been tortured by this game and you’re still in the mood to tease us?

Beat this bastard to death!

Many players were calling for a boycott of excavating for Ascension, Chen Mo’s games, and Thunderbolt gaming platform!

Many players were calling on other players to uninstall the game to show their determination!

Although many people said so, their bodies still opened the game over and over again honestly. More players chose to tell other players, live streamers, and UP masters about the game. It became a trend to watch those who were tortured by the game.

Every time a streamer or video uploader reached a critical point in the game, there would always be a lot of viewers who would send bullet comments at the right time. The large number of repeated bullet comments would make the visual effect particularly shocking.

“Welcome to the Save point!”

“The place where dreams begin”

“Welcome home.”

“Go home often.”

“I feel bad for the table!”

“Carry him away, next one!”

“Another one has gone crazy, carry him away!”

Many people realized that watching others play this game was much more interesting than playing it themselves!

It was only then that many players realized the true joy of excavating for Ascension, and that was to watch others get abused!

In fact, this was indeed the case for the game. Its popularity was not because it was fun to play, but because of its explosive effects in videos and livestreams. Therefore, under the drive of major live streamers and video uploaders, its popularity had exploded and it had become a phenomenal game.

A lot of streamers figured out that the game could be saved through loopholes, but it was unknown if Chen Mo ignored it or did it on purpose.

However, streamers who used loopholes to save would be boycotted by the audience because it was completely contrary to the spirit of the game itself. Therefore, players would choose to save when they couldn’t play anymore, but the streamers would stubbornly start from the beginning.

……

On the question and answer community, a question was pushed to the front page.

“What’s your opinion on Chen Mo’s April Fool’s Day game, excavate for Ascension?”

Many people answered.

“Isn’t the game Committee going to do anything? If people die in other games, people die outside of this game!”

“This game should be called ‘dig the ground to get up’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’get down’,’I’m going to die!”

“If it were me, I would probably choose to smash the VAT.”

“Being popular is a scary thing. When the neighbors were discussing how bad sh * t tasted, you couldn’t help but take a bite out of curiosity, then frowned and ran over to join the discussion. It’s really bad. ”

However, there were also different opinions.

A video game media’s editor had written a long review of the game, analyzing the spiritual implications and philosophical thoughts behind the game.

“I don’t think Chen Mo made this game just to torture the players. There’s a lot of dark humor in the game that disparages the mainstream games.”

“They give the players false guarantees, follow certain rules, keep training themselves, and use one save point after another to advance step by step. In the end, you will win.”

“But is this really your success? You’re just the game designer’s marionette, and the clearing of the game is arranged. This makes the game experience like fast food, which is quickly consumed and thrown into the trash can. ”

“On the other hand, excavating for Ascension is the complete opposite of these games. As a designer who has contributed to many of our classics, Chen Mo has his own unique preferences and understanding.

“In this game, there’s no guarantee. If you fail, you’ll have to start all over again. The only thing you can trust is your own strength and experience, and this can only be obtained through repeated painful failures.”

“In ‘excavating for Ascension’, the frustration of failure is resolved by the brawny man’s humor. For example, there’s a saying about failure: What we mean by failure is not falling, but stopping. ”

“When you come to the last snow Mountain, even though the sign says ‘don’t play with snakes’, the narrator will still constantly tempt you to ride that snake. If you believe it …”

“I don’t think it’s just a bad joke. It shows Chen Zhao’s sincere thoughts: Enjoy these failures, they are sometimes more fun than success. ”

“Many streamers find ways to enjoy their failures after many failures, such as cosplaying as a burly man while continuing to’ dig the ground for Ascension ‘, but it’s not easy to do.”

“Sometimes, I feel that the experience in the game points to the life of each of us. The implication behind this idea is worrying. We may never reach the top. In the game, I am still stuck on the ‘mountain of modern garbage’, unable to move forward. Perhaps in reality, I am also living under a pile of modern garbage.”

“In any case, I suggest that everyone try ‘excavating the earth for Ascension’. There are a thousand hamlets in a thousand readers. I believe you can find more meaning in life and philosophical thinking from it.”

This super long comment received more than 8000 approval on the question and answer community, making it the most popular answer under this one. A lot of people were commenting. As expected of a video game media professional, their reviews were so in-depth!

But soon, the number of likes for this super long comment was overtaken, and the answer that overtook it was only two short paragraphs.

“You’re all thinking too much,” Chen Zhao said.”I just want to see you guys being tortured to death.”

“Besides, I don’t think those cosplay streamers found the joy of failure. They’re just purely crazy.”

This answer was quickly reposted and ridiculed by the players. Many people even took screenshots and reposted them on Weibo and major forums.

Even “kill that bastard Chen Mo” became one of the hottest topics on Weibo.

This completely free game that was created to take revenge on society suddenly appeared on all major livestreaming platforms, video websites, and game forums on April Fool’s Day. For a moment, it seemed like everyone was talking about this very special game.

Many players were trying to promote the game with all their might, making the game the most talked-about game and the most downloaded game during April Fool’s Day without any advertising.

On April Fool’s Day, the download count for excavating the land for Ascension broke 2 million. It was a number that would make any video game industry personnel break down.

Since it was a PC game, the installation package wasn’t small, and Chen Mo didn’t do any advertising, he just relied on the natural traffic.

Moreover, there was no way to play this game. The modeling was rough and the quality was low. Even a normal B-grade video game designer could make it without any difficulty.

But just like that, the number of downloads in one day had exceeded 2 million?
