The emergence of the new game piqued Minato's curiosity. Seeing the description, it seemed like a very casual game, and he had a feeling that this game would be suitable for his wife.
"Oh, it's a sandbox open-world adventure creation game."
"Huh?"
A puzzled expression formed on Minato's head.
Currently, he could only understand shooting games, role-playing games, and so on. Liu Yuan bombarded him with so many professional terms that he, who had only played one game, found it a bit hard to accept.
Nyaruko, standing beside him, explained, "Just think of it as a life simulation and relaxation game. It's perfect if you don't have much going on. It's a shame I'm a bit short on cash and can't play."
On the other side, Tina asked, "Is it very casual?"
Nyaruko was puzzled.
She didn't know how to explain because she had only heard her friend talk about this game and had never played it herself.
Subaru Natsuki had played the mod version.
At this moment, Liu Yuan walked over and explained, "Very casual indeed. In survival mode, even pure newcomers who know the functions of materials and tools can defeat the Ender Dragon in a week. Besides adventure, you can farm, raise animals, establish your own city, or even a country."
The system provided not only the pixelated version of Minecraft but also the version with realistic experiences. In this version, the visual and tactile effects were identical to reality. The sun was round, and eating and drinking were necessary.
Items crafted also matched real-world visual effects, whether they were round or square. If it were on real difficulty, players would have absolute freedom and could interact with items and props from other games in the internet cafe. As long as they completed those games, the items and props could be transferred to their Minecraft homes.
After listening to Liu Yuan's explanation, Tina's face lit up with excitement. Having her own world, where she could live and build anything, even if it was virtual, made her very happy.
Tina directly purchased the game. Having already completed Resident Evil 8, she was now playing some casual modes to vent her emotions. Honestly, this game made her quite frustrated.
Whether it was the storyline, realism, or gaming experience, she would give it a full score. Especially Ethan, the father in the game, who, no matter what happened, was determined to save his daughter.
Even if his daughter Rose was dismembered into five parts in the story, he still wanted to bring her back.
She, being the cursed child, had similarities with Ethan's daughter in some aspects. Neither of them was truly human; both were infected individuals.
Yet Rose's father would spare no effort, even if it meant crushing his own heart, to save her with his infected body.
And herself? She was abandoned at birth, turned into an experiment, and a killer.
Even though Rose hadn't seen her father or talked to Ethan herself, that love could definitely be conveyed.
But herself? She had nothing.
But now it was different. If what Liu Yuan advertised was true, being able to create a world of her own, even if it was virtual, she would gladly accept it.
Moreover, who would dare say the things in this internet cafe game were fake?
At least after playing Resident Evil 8, she obtained the perfect Mold Virus.
However, this thing was a bit redundant for Tina.
As a cursed child, her body had very strong regenerative abilities, and the perfect Mold Virus only gave her similar recovery abilities to Ethan's, without affecting her mind. Its other effects were not significant.
Now with Minecraft, she was curious about what the crafting table she would eventually obtain could bring her.
If it could create a world where infected individuals wouldn't be discriminated against, that would be great.
"Give it a try. If you don't know what to play, this game is perfect. If you have other games to play, this game is also great. You can build a home, and items that can't fit in other games can be stored and displayed here."
"Give me one!"
This sentence further solidified Tina's determination. She directly paid for the game. Even though the price tag made her feel a bit reluctant, and theoretically, this game was the least profitable compared to the other two games because you couldn't obtain items without completing it, it was worth it for a world of her own.
After purchasing the game and opening it, as soon as she entered the game, she looked up at the pure world.
Blue sky, green islands, yellow sands, and the surrounding ocean. Several animals were running and jumping on the deserted island, and fish were playing in the azure sea.
This was a feeling she couldn't experience in her own world.
The sea in her world was already occupied by gastreas, and she didn't know what dangers lurked in the pitch-black ocean.
The living areas were also surrounded by huge rocks, especially for someone like her, a cursed child.
Being able to live well was already good enough; experiencing freedom was too luxurious.
But now, she felt what freedom truly was.
This feeling was truly wonderful.
The game was very simple. Even in the realistic experience version, there were basic tutorials inside, such as what materials could be used to make potions, weapons, or metal.
Moreover, things not found in the game could also be used in this world. If someone knew how to make firearms, building a firearms factory would be no problem.
A true sandbox open-world, a real world that belonged to her in the virtual world.
After fully immersing herself in the game, the useless noise around her was automatically blocked by the machine. Seeing the excellent environment in the game, everyone else also bought a copy without hesitation.
Except for Nyaruko, everyone else had various pressures in real life. The world's destruction, endless reincarnations, managing the village, and a wife going into labor. For them, such a world, exclusively theirs and completely free, was indeed very suitable.
Moreover, this world could also store items, which was fantastic.
The game system obtained after playing the game was indeed very convenient, but the items in the system were too messy. If she could have her own house to organize and display them, wouldn't that be great?
Seeing everyone start playing the game, Liu Yuan began his next plan.
"Just having games without communication isn't ideal. I'll apply for a free chat software called TT, which will also be installed on the computers. It's very easy to use. You can play games and communicate through TT at the same time."
This excited Subaru Natsuki and Kaede Fujimaru.
"What? Is it similar to Line?"
Liu Yuan nodded, "That's right. Make sure to read the rules carefully. Some situations require payment for communication, but it's completely free to use on the computers in the internet cafe."
This was also the most important reason why Liu Yuan chose Minecraft. Theoretically, any other game could do without communication. But not Minecraft; such a free game with no restrictions almost guaranteed that anyone who came to the internet cafe to play would buy it.
But without communication in the game, and people couldn't communicate all the time outside of the game, this was where TT came in. Letting them use it freely in the internet cafe would undoubtedly encourage bad habits, but when they had money or became premium users, sending a cross-world message would cost ten yuan.
They wouldn't make much money now, but in the future, with more people, this would definitely be a big source of profit.
