Bab 5: 05 - Streaming Mode
"Hmm, the food looks good, 1 Gaming point for a pack of 20 CupNoodles? Doesn't seem like a bad deal." Alex was entertained looking at the system store.
He had looked to the other tabs for what might be useful to him, and aside from everyday things that were cheap, the rest was very expensive.
He could get powers from anime, movies, but it was very, very expensive.
[Dominic Toretto Driving Skills: 3,000 Gaming Points. ]
[Deadshot Weapon Mastery: 10,000 Gaming Points. ]
[Gray Fullbuster Ice Magic: 100,000 ]
[Megumin Fire Magic: 500,000 Gaming Points. ]
Unfortunately even Dominic Toretto's driving techniques were at a price Alex couldn't even think to pay.
So he just contented himself with looking at the price of food for now. He was rooting for Minecraft to succeed and generate more Gaming Points for him.
Alex didn't know what the world he was like, since he got here he was trapped in this mountain, with no contact with the outside world, so he was afraid of meeting a dragon, or a demon lord who controlled this world.
"These 20 CupNoodles can last for 10 days, I think that in 10 days Minecraft has already generated me at least 1 Gaming Point, right?" He asked himself a little uncertainly.
But because of the hunger he was feeling, and the lack of industrialized food he was feeling, Alex gritted his teeth and spent 1 Gaming Point to buy these CupNoodles.
"This is divine… I missed this so much!!" Alex exclaimed happily as he feasted on the noodles.
Until he saw something that caught his attention on the computer screen.
[1 Active Player in 'Minecraft' ]
"What? Has anyone already bought Minecraft? But it's been less than 30 minutes since I made it online..." Alex asked himself both surprised and confused.
Opening the [Game Following ] program, Alex saw that there was an icon of an active player, with a small one-eyed button next to that player's icon.
Curious, Alex clicked on the icon and saw that his computer screen was playing a world of Minecraft, as if he were in spectator mode.
On the screen, there was a worried Steve looking around, apparently afraid of something.
"He's been playing for just over 20 minutes...so he's past his first night? This is surprising, I remember my first time playing minecraft I had died to a skeleton's arrow at night and nearly died for that player to survive the first night in such an immersive game is commendable." Alex said to himself with a smile as he sucked some CupNoodles.
Gradually he became more and more entertained watching this player venturing into the world of minecraft.
When he saw the player about to have a heart attack when he saw a Creeper exploding next to him Alex almost died laughing.
"This is like watching one of those well-crafted animations from my previous life, those people had so much talent that they could make such compelling stories in minecraft, this kid seems to have a talent for entertaining people." Alex smiled as he continued to watch.
Without him noticing, an hour had passed and he was still watching this boy's adventures in this new world. "Maybe this is the fun of those gods who reincarnate humans in unknown worlds? Maybe I'm fun like that for someone? Nah, I just sat in front of the computer and made a game, I guess I'm not that interesting."
But after saying that, Alex realized something. "But this player is interesting, how about I develop a way to stream this?"
With that idea in mind, Alex minimized [Game Following ] and opened [Game Developer ].
Using the mind commands for the system made it very easy to implement streaming mode in the game, unfortunately this cost Alex another 30 Gaming Points as it wasn't part of the basic Sandbox game mode. But he was satisfied with that, after all, he knew the power that livestreams had in his previous life to convince players to buy games.
Hitting the [Update ] button, Alex smiled and looked at that player's screen again. Unfortunately he had been the only person to buy Minecraft so far, but it wouldn't stay that way for long.

Ned was having so much fun, he hadn't even noticed that almost two hours of play had already passed. After discovering that he could make swords, pickaxes, shovels, armor, Ned became addicted.
He wanted to mine deeper and deeper into the caves, but he was afraid of encountering some unknown monster.
After he saw that green monster that explodes he was shocked.
But that didn't stop Ned from venturing into the surface and shallower caves. So he got his first iron armor.
Looking at the shining armor between his arms made Ned very proud, he had conquered this armor with a lot of effort, which made him value it even more.
But as Ned admired his iron armor, a floating screen appeared in front of him.
[A new update has come up, do you want to update the game now? You will need to restart the game to apply updates. ]
Seeing this Ned was surprised. From what he had seen when he bought the game, it had been released today, and was there an update already?
But despite the doubts, Ned decided to accept and disconnected from the game for three seconds before returning to the world again.
"So fast? Maybe it could just be a little bug fix…" Ned said out loud as he went back to admiring the armor in front of him.
When he went to put his old leather armor in his backpack, Ned saw something different there.
Next to the backpack was something that wasn't there before... a camera!
"When did I get a camera? I don't remember crafting this." He said to himself a little uncertainly.
When he took the camera, he saw a small screen explaining what it was,
[This is the streaming camera. To start a live broadcast it is necessary to log in to the desired platform account. ]
"This... should I? Last time it didn't work out very well..." Ned wondered before shaking his head. "Damn it, I won't lose anything with this anyway, why not give it a try? Certainly other people will be amazed by this game too, this could be my opportunity!"
With conviction, Ned logged into his Twitch account and pressed the camera button to begin streaming.
As soon as the camera light turned red, he got a little shy as he held the camera not knowing what to do.
[PParker: Hey Ned, are you trying streaming again? What is it? It's a movie? Dude, be careful, you could get sued for this... D: ]
Seeing his best friend's text, Ned smiled and replied. "Hi Peter, this isn't a movie, look, it's me!" And he started to move his arms as he waved from side to side.
[PParker: What?! How are you doing this? Are you using body tracking? How did you get so much money?! ]
"Hahaha, it's not body tracking, look, this is the house I built, in the beginning it was just an earth castle, but then I took some stone with my pickaxe and managed to exchange the land for stone, now it's much tougher!" Ned said as he started to show with the camera and explain the things he's done in the world since he started playing.
[PParker: Woah!! How are you doing this?! Pls tell me! I want to try too! ]
[dark _knight: Hey bro, what's this? I was passing through other livestreams and saw that yours seems to be using CGI, are you a V-Tuber? ]
And so more people started arriving on Ned's livestream, some came out of boredom, others came because friends called, but after joining this weird livestream, no one could leave, everything was very new and magical for them, Ned often had to explain the most basic things in the game over and over, but no one got tired of hearing it as he walked around this world holding the camera.
Viewers were feeling like they were somehow watching a human from another world as he explored it, it was so much better than a movie!

Bab 6: 06 - Mutant in Minecraft?
Alex was thrilled to see people liking the player's livestream, who apparently was named Ned.
"Finally some entertainment!" Alex squealed in happiness.
He didn't have any form of contact with the outside world, only being able to do things related to the game, so being able to watch other people interact was already a big step forward for him.
[Ding ]
[Ding ]
Two new notifications came from the [Game Analytics ] app.
In this show he could see how the game was doing, how much it sold, how long players were online, and that sort of thing.
Those two notifications only meant one thing, he sold two more copies!
Ned's livestream had 40 people watching him, and the number was continuing to grow. For someone like Ned who only had 1 follower before he started playing, getting 40 people together was awesome. And these people calling more and more friends was becoming a great free publicity for Alex's game.
[Units sold: 3 ($60) ]
"My game has already sold $60! This is amazing!" Alex was happy as he rushed to open the [Converter ] tab to calculate how many points he could earn from these sales of copies of the game.
[$60 = 0.3 Gaming Points ]
"Urhgg... that's not even 1 Gaming Point? So I'll need $200 to get 1 Gaming Point? To make another 200 Gaming Points Sandbox game would I need $40,000? Damn, that's too expensive! What a conversion! ridiculous is that?" Alex yelled in frustration.
"I need to calm down, $40,000 is only 2,000 units sold... not a lot, right?" Alex wondered uncertainly.
Minecraft in his previous world had sold 600 million copies, which was equivalent to 120 billion dollars if it sold at $20 each copy, with such huge potential, Alex didn't have to worry that it wouldn't yield anything for him. The game would probably take a while to start generating more profit, but he shouldn't be in a hurry.
With his mind made up, Alex thought about eating another CupNoodles to celebrate, but remembering that each CupNoodles this one was costing $10, he felt a little guilty for eating this, after all, it was almost 20% of what he had already earned with the game so far...
---
With a source of entertainment, the day went by pretty quickly. Alex used the rest of the day to continue watching Ned's livestream and felt that it was a lot of fun, way better than sitting in the cabin doing nothing like he was being forced to do before.
The next day, Alex opened [Game Analytics ] and saw the Minecraft stats.
[Minecraft ]
[Units Sold: 41 ($820 ]
[Average time played: 5 hours. ]
[Peak simultaneous players: 34 ]
"This... do I already have enough for 4 Gaming Points?!" Alex was excited. He would no longer have to regulate his own food for fear of not having enough money to support it.
Adding to the 19 Gaming Points he had previously, he could now convert that money and have 23 Gaming Points.
It wasn't much, but he had noticed that more players had started making Minecraft Livestream, which would draw even more attention to the game, providing more sales for it in the future.
"I think the next thing I should develop is multiplayer. This will attract even more people, but before that I need to collect 50 Gaming Points..." Alex chatted to himself.
He wanted to launch Minecraft with multiplayer mode, but to do that he would need to pay more points, which he didn't have much left, so he had to just leave the [Soon ] button next to multiplayer in the game.
With 50 Gaming Points he could buy a server that would support 5,000 people playing online, which was a pretty good number considering that 5,000 people would earn him 500 Gaming Points.
"For now all I can do is wait..." Alex sighed as he opened [Game Following ] and started watching Ned's livestream again. He was surprised that there were already 93 people watching Ned's livestream, that was pretty fast growth for someone who didn't have any followers yesterday.
Until a notification popped up in front of him that left him a little confused.
[Ding, a Mutant just purchased the game, do you want to allow the mutant to use his abilities in the game? ]
"A mutant? What are mutants? Maybe humans who killed a beast and absorbed the essence of it? Or a human who was born with problems?" Alex started to wonder curious, still thinking that this could be a world of magic. He knew the X-Men, but for some reason he was so focused that this could be a world of Dragons and Magic that he didn't think it was a mutant he knew well.
"What does it cost to allow this?" Alex asked the system.
[To allow mutants to use abilities in the game requires 25 Gaming Points for 1250 mutants, if user wanted to allow mutants to lend abilities to humans in game, 25 Gaming Points will be needed for 1250 humans to receive abilities. ]
Seeing this Alex was shocked. That would be very interesting to see. Humans are prejudiced beings, he doesn't doubt that these mutants suffer prejudice wherever they go, but allowing them to lend abilities could make humans see them differently.
"I'll do it when I have enough Gaming Points, it's good to be a considerate game developer!" Alex thought with a proud smile.
He just didn't know that this move would attract a lot more attention than he imagined around the world.

Kurt Wagner was looking for a fun livestream channel to watch, but he was tired of just seeing people playing shooting or war games, these games were cool to play for a year or two, but since he was a kid these were the only types game he had available to play, it became very repetitive...
Until one day, while rummaging through the Twitch website, Kurt found something different.
A livestream with a very intriguing title.
[Minecraft: Another World ]
Curious, he clicked on this livestream to see what was so special about this game, but what he saw surprised Kurt.
On his screen was a small square man holding a camera and talking to people while tending a large farm.
If the man wasn't square, Kurt would think this was just an IRL livestream from some farmer who just wanted company. But no, the square man was wearing armor on his body while he had a sword strapped to his waist, this was not something that happened on farms.
Curious he typed a message in the chat.
[Crawler: What is this? I am new here. ]
Kurt didn't imagine the man's answer would come practically in an instant.
"Haha, this is your first time friend Crawler? Don't be surprised, everyone is like that after seeing Minecraft for the first time. This is a virtual reality game where you go to another world and you can have your own adventures. side of the barn? I was the one who built it with my own hands!" Ned said excitedly as he pointed to the house he was so proud to build.
Kurt was very surprised to see this, as the man responded almost instantly. 'Is this really a game? I was thinking it was some kind of movie, or some new technology for V-Tubers, but the way this man is acting and showing everything around him while interacting with objects, it really feels like a game!' Kurt was excited.
With excitement he opened the game store and bought the game right away.
