Chapter 109: Chapter 108: RTS Community Gone Wild!

The entire chat group flipped out when Kaiser sent that message.

“Oh my, did K-god get hacked? I’ve never seen K-god praise an RTS game like this!”

“K-god are you serious? Is the game that greaT?”

“I trust K-god, I’ll try it out now!”

The chat group was filled with long-time RTS players. Upon hearing from Kaiser than this game was way better than Legion Conquest, they couldn’t wait to try the game.

Xue Kai was so happy with the game, he felt that it wasn’t enough to promote it in the QQ group. He went on Weibo and praised the game yet again.

He even decided to livestream the game as he decided it still didn’t receive enough praise.

A game like this can’t be enjoyed alone, the more players the better!

Moreover, it’s rare that a Chinese company releases such a nice game, of course he was going to support it!

Xue Kai launched the streaming software.

Xue Kai didn’t receive as many viewers as was still the afternoon, and Xue Kai usually streamed during the night. But there were many fans who followed Xue Kai who started watching the stream.

“Wow, K-god is streaming? It’s only afternoon, that’s weird.”

“Wow, I’ve got nothing to do this afternoon anyways, feels good to watch K-god.”

There were more and more people watching and chatting, and it didn’t take long before he reached two hundred thousand viewers.

Xue Kai had a million fans following his stream, so this number wasn’t much. RTS games weren’t as popular as MOBAs in the previous world too, combined with the fact that there were usually less people watching streams during the afternoon and less people watching streams in general, this number was reasonable.

However, Xue Kai was still quite a big streamer with a million followers.

Xue Kai started displaying Warcraft on his stream, then changing the title to “Trying out Warcraft”.

Xue Kai said as he controlled Arthas to beat the level, “I’ve discovered this new game called Warcraft today. It’s made in China and from the few moments I’ve played before this, it felt quite nice. I’d recommend everyone to try it out.”

The viewers also started discussing the game. There were many that had their eyes on the game and started promoting it to others.

The other fans who hadn’t paid too much attention to it couldn’t help but download the game under all the peer pressure.

Xue Kai was one of the first Warcraft streamers, but he certainly wasn’t the only one. The news spread quickly in the RTS community, and many viewers went to other streams begging the streamer to play Warcraft. It didn’t take long before it became a phenomena on the streaming platform.

The next day, many Legion Conquest streamers were now playing Warcraft.

A lot of players have been drawn in by the high quality cinematics, charismatic playstyle and incredible story, it didn’t take long before Warcraft became immensely popular in the PC community.

Xue Kai forked out money to buy Warcraft with no hesitation. He thought that he game was going to be popular for sure, and eighty-eight RMB for a game of this quality wasn’t bad at all.

As time went by, Xue Kai started to discover that the game had rich gameplay and heart grabbing story.

There were now eight hundred thousand viewers watching Xue Kia playing Warcraft, greatly surpassing many other RPG streamers as well as being his new top view count.

After beating another chapter, another cinematic started playing.

Xue Kai was shocked, another cinematic? The designer must be rich to be able to throw this much money based on how detailed they were. How many of these did he make?

A far away bell sounded.

In the sacred and magnificent melody, the camera flew over the city of Lordaeron and returned Arthas.

Arthas enters the city after a drawbridge was dropped. The citizens of Lordaeron cheer with petals filling the air as they welcome the return of their price.

As the petals fell, Arthas who had a black hood on looked up and grabbed a petal.

At this moment, the melody turned depressing.

The petal slowly wilted in Arthas’s hand.

Arthas threw the flower to the ground and looked towards the sky with his cold, lifeless eyes.

Arthas then entered the hall of the palace.

Arthas greets his father kneeling with his sword out. Nobody noticed that the weapon in the price’s hand wasn’t a holy battlehammer, but the dreadful Frostmourne.

The king stood up to welcome Arthas, but there was another voice in Arthas’s mind.

“You don’t need to sacrifice for your people.”

“You don’t need to take up the responsibility of the king.”

“I’ve arranged everything.”

With the voice of Frostmourne in his mind, Arthas walked forward with his sword in hand.

The camera panned to the shadow of Arthas on the wall, with the king yelling, “My son, what are you doing?”

Arthas replied completely emotionless, “Continuing the legacy, father.”

The king fell following his scream.

As the blood flowed down from the throne, Arthas exclaimed emotionlessly, “This country will be destroyed.

“But from it’s rubble, a new order will be born, and it will shake the world to its core!”

Before Xue Kai came back to his senses, the chat was going wild.

“Oh my goodness, this is a Chinese game? You’re telling me this is a Chinese game?”

“This cinematic is insane! Mom’s asking me why I’m on my knees!”

“The righteous son broke in the end? My goodness, does the story need to be this good! The father and son are gone!”

“I knew from the beginning that it wasn’t going to turn out well!”

“Get a move on, K-god. We wanna see the end!”

—

The players were already going wild from the story before they even got the Versus mode.

The setting of the story completely outmatched Legion Conquest. Not to mention the otherworldly quality of these cinematics blew the stale and boring settings of Legion Conquest into smithereens!

This even drew up the visits to the World of Azeroth website. There were more and more comments under Arthas and Illidan, with several more comments every refresh.

Within the experience store, everyone had their eyes on the statistics for the game.

Although I Am MT had been on the best-selling leaderboards, PC games are on a different level to mobile games. Everyone was highly confident in Warcraft, but nobody knew for sure how well the game would sell.

Su Jinyu asked, “How’s the sales like, manager?”

Chen Mo replied, “Didn’t you ask that an hour ago? How much would it grow in an hour.”

“Quick, come take a look,” ushered Su Jinyu.

Chen Mo took a look and said, “It’s at twenty four thousand nine hundred and sixty right now, growing at about seven hundred an hour.

“Wow, that’s amazing! Over twenty thousand sales on the first day!” exclaimed Su Jinyu.

Qian Kun also said in a happy tone, “That means it’s more than a million RMB in a day! That’s amazing!”

Plants vs Zombies also had twenty thousand sales on the first day. But it was a mobile game after all, one priced at ten RMB at that, only resulting in two hundred thousand RMB.

Warcraft was a large game sold at eighty-eight RMB, and selling twenty thousand copies meant 1.7 million RMB, a completely different level from mobile games.

“You’re happy with that? I think the sales can go higher still,” said Chen Mo.

“Higher?” Su Jinyu was surprised, “Any higher and there’ll be no traces of Legion Conquest left. Isn’t that a bit unrealistic?”

Chen Mo laughed, “Unrealistic? It’d be unrealistic if that didn’t happen.”

Everyone else felt that the number of sales Warcraft had was already quite amazing, but Chen Mo was far from satisfied.

In his previous life, Warcraft sold 1.6 million copies in China. At that time, priating was commonplace in China, and being able to sell 1.6 million copies were

Although Chen Mo set the price a bit high at eighty-eight RMb, pirating games was a much rarer occurrence in the parallel world and was more or less non-existent. Combined with the fact that there wasn’t much competition among RTS games, Chen Mo was confident that he could sell around two million copies in China!

Moreover, this was just the sales in China. A game like Warcraft could totally be sold overseas and could get immensely popular like Legion Conquest did.Warcraft also happened to be Legion Conquest, but better in every single aspect.
