Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Even with his experience of living two lives, he still couldn't quite understand it.

However, this did not affect his game development progress.

However, amidst public opinion, there have been quite a few pessimistic voices.

They believe that such provocative behavior by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment will lose most of its fans, as players will absolutely not like a game that disregards human life.

Chapter 718 The Right Game

The popular game "Love and Justice" is now available for purchase with positive reviews!

The popular "Age of Magic" game series has revealed the latest news!

The game "Dragon Messenger" is about to be released. Click to get a sneak peek at the latest information about the game.

"So ugly."

"So ugly."

"So ugly! Why is it so ugly?! The characters in other games were so cool!"

In someone's home, a young man is constantly complaining.

He is a seasoned gamer.

My favorite thing to do when I have free time is play games.

However, he doesn't have any particular favorite games; he simply loves playing games for fun.

It doesn't really matter what game he plays; as long as the game isn't too bad, he'll give it a good review and pay for it.

This is the kind of person game companies love most.

However, he has recently noticed that more and more games are starting to show some changes.

The most obvious change is that the characters in these games have started to become increasingly ugly.

He doesn't mind if the characters in the game are ugly, but it's somewhat unacceptable that they're all ugly in a very distinctive way.

He then realized that he was actually a player who really liked aesthetically pleasing characters.

He can accept a person as long as their appearance is acceptable.

And now many of the games he plays have made adjustments in this regard.

Whether they are supporting characters or main characters, they are all heading down the path of ugliness with no turning back.

The explanations given by these companies were also very difficult for him to understand.

To be more realistic, because in real life there aren't that many exceptionally beautiful people; most are of average appearance. This is for the sake of human rights...

He was utterly bewildered by the news, his mind filled with questions.

I'm not pursuing realism in games at all.

Does magic exist in real life? Are there epic battles between heroes and dragons? Are there alien invasions?

Why don't you make these things real?

He just couldn't understand it.

However, these companies seemed to have all agreed on the same thing, and they all modified their games in this way at almost the same time.

The characters are made incredibly ugly, and you're forced to accept it all – this kind of setting is completely unacceptable.

He really couldn't accept it.

However, he still bought the games.

Because he has a high tolerance for games, and at least these games are of decent quality, he can just buy them and play them casually without worrying too much about anything else.

However, it's still a bit frustrating that the characters in the game could be made to look better and more beautiful.

In today's technologically advanced environment, game characters should be even cooler, more refined, and more visually appealing.

But now they're doing the exact opposite, which is really upsetting.

But these players' objections seem to have little effect.

Online, a group of people are still shouting at the top of their lungs about video games.

In fact, they are targeting not only video games, but also other categories.

Movies and animations.

Clowns are all the rage.

The term "human rights" has somehow become a distorted form of political correctness.

Video games and other entertainment products are becoming victims of this behavior.

"Mr. Murakami, do you have any good choices for this year's best video game award?"

In an interview program, they invited Kazuo Murakami, who is now very famous in the video game industry.

He was a pioneer in the video game information and review industry, and with the support of GameStar Entertainment, he was very popular.

Sometimes, some of Kazuo Murakami's words can be seen as a mouthpiece for certain people.

The once slightly shy junior high school student has now grown into a composed entrepreneur, which is quite an achievement.

Facing the camera, Kazuo Murakami smiled and replied, "Our evaluation and statistics work is still ongoing, and we welcome everyone to cast their precious vote for your favorite game."

The host followed up, "Do you have any games you prefer?"

Kazuo Murakami continued to smile: "I can't answer that for you either. Perhaps I'll talk about it properly after our annual game awards this year. It's a bit sensitive to discuss this kind of thing now."

The host, seemingly undeterred, tentatively asked, "What do you think of the game 'Deep Space Exploration'? It's been generating a lot of buzz lately, so it should be a very competitive title, right?"

Murakami Kazuo's eyebrows twitched slightly.

He knew about the game "Deep Space Exploration".

This is a very obvious politically correct game.

The company that developed this game is a very established American game company.

The games they create are generally of very good quality.

He actually quite liked this game company.

But recently, this company has gradually taken a liking to using all sorts of ugly characters as the main characters.

In Murakami Kazuo's mind, he didn't quite approve of this behavior, but he couldn't say for sure whether it was good or bad.

When faced with this question, Kazuo Murakami's tone became noticeably colder: "This game is still quite good, but I won't give a review for now. We'll have to wait until the Game of the Year is announced."

The interviewer was somewhat disappointed that he didn't get any useful information out of Kazuo Murakami.

However, this also demonstrates Murakami Kazuo's extensive experience.

He made too many mistakes; society is truly treacherous, far more complex than video games.

Now that he has become a well-known figure in the video game industry, the things he faces are bound to be more complex than those in video games.

He is no longer capable of saying inappropriate things simply because of some leading questions from others.

However, he still wanted to express his dissatisfaction with some of the strange changes in the current gaming industry.

But this wasn't the most suitable place to express this idea, so he decided to wait.

After the interview, Kazuo Murakami returned to his company and went to get off work as usual, occasionally giving reviews of games.

At the same time, he also began preparing for the 2007 annual game awards program.

These were all things that had been planned long ago.

However, he has been having some worries lately.

That interview program remained unforgettable for him, and not long after the program ended, his email inbox began to receive more and more anonymous emails.

These letters inquire whether Kazuo Murakami would give certain games a Game of the Year award.

They believe certain games are absolutely correct, so they hope to make those correct games the Game of the Year.

Chapter 719 I Believe in You

719

Kazuo Murakami consistently refused to reply to these anonymous emails.

At the same time, he also noticed that more and more votes were being cast for the so-called "correct" games on his review website's game voting page.

But those games weren't fun.

Murakami Kazuo watched all of this in silence.

Are some of my views outdated?

Since when did discussions about games stop about whether they are fun or cool, and start about whether they are "correct"?

Is he really going to give these games a higher rating against his will?

This is something he doesn't want to see.

Suddenly, he had a strong urge to get Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's games into the annual game awards.

Because the games from Yusei Electronic Entertainment are virtually uncontroversial, no one can voice any objections.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's games represent the pinnacle of the gaming industry.

If Yuxing Electronic Entertainment were to actually enter the annual game awards, it would undoubtedly become a perennial chart-topping force, with virtually no other game company able to compete with it.

Kazuo Murakami hoped things would develop this way, so that he could have an easier time.

However, he cannot do that, because Youxing Electronic Entertainment is already a member of the judging process. If Youxing Electronic Entertainment is also involved in the judging, it will inevitably cause Youxing Electronic Entertainment to be caught in a public opinion storm of being both a judge and a contestant.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment itself probably wouldn't be happy to see this kind of development.

correct!

Murakami Kazuo's eyes suddenly lit up.
