Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Where else on Earth could you possibly find such a beautiful place?

Oh, maybe there are, but how could I possibly have the chance to find such a place?

So he couldn't wait and started taking screenshots like crazy.

He was already planning to find some good photos to post on his social media platform later, and then show them off to those guys who weren't familiar with video games.

It might even fool some people, making them genuinely believe they've visited some magical natural landscape.

As he was thinking this, he didn't notice that his daughter had already come to his side.

"Daughter? What brings you here?"

"Dad, what's so fun about this thing? Is it more fun than a doll?"

"Well... how should I put it? For boys, video games are like dolls for girls. That's the difference between boys and girls."

"Can't I like video games like Dad?"

"That's not it..." At this moment, the man suddenly had an idea and said, "By the way, daughter, would you be interested in trying it out?"

"I want to see Daddy play."

"Alright, you just watch and see how your dad takes down those powerful monsters!"

The man became highly motivated; he couldn't back down in front of his daughter, and he had to do his best to demonstrate his fighting spirit as a father!

……

"Isn't it just a game of hunting monsters over and over again? What's so great about this kind of game? Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is getting lazier and lazier. They're making so many of these games where you just grind monsters over and over again. These players are blind. They've spent thousands of hours on this game. Why don't they use that time to read a book? Why don't they watch a good movie? Or buy one of my books?"

On the social media platform, Logan kept browsing the content shared on the social forum.

Recently, with the release of Monster Hunter by Yusei Electronics, there has been a surge in discussions about it on social media.

He always considered himself a successful person. He had published a book, although the sales were not high. At least he had made some achievements in the literary field. Even though the sales were not high, having published a book made him feel superior.

However, whenever he saw so many people engrossed in video games and wasting their time on such meaningless things, he felt a nameless anger rising within him.

Why do you all like this stuff so much? It clearly has no substance whatsoever. Compared to these meaningless things, my book is obviously much better.

But you don't pay any attention to these things at all.

He was disappointed in these guys who only knew how to share video games all day.

He was extremely indignant, wondering why someone like Zhu Youxing could gain such a great reputation.

Yet he painstakingly wrote a profound book, but remains so unknown.

The more he looked at the content shared on social media, the angrier he became.

In a fit of anger, he shut down the social media platform.

He wanted to calm down and think carefully about how to write a new book that would make a splash.

However, at this moment, he simply couldn't calm down.

The pressure he felt had nowhere to go.

In the end, he could only find some alcohol and get himself completely drunk until he was vaguely awakened by the phone ringing the next day.

"Logan, I've been calling you all night. Are you okay?"

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded very worried.

That was one of Logan's friends.

Logan is an author who has never been very famous, while his friend has been very successful in his career and now has a wonderful life.

But this friend never forgot Logan, because they had been friends since childhood.

Logan hasn't contacted him recently, which is making this friend a little worried.

"I'm fine, just a little upset."

"Didn't many books sell? Don't worry too much about it. These things can't be rushed."

"It's not just about books, there's more to it than that. But never mind, there's no point in talking about it. Are you free tonight? Shall we go out for a drink?"

"Oh, well, I've been a bit busy these past few days, so I might not be able to find the time. But if you could come to my place, it might be a good way to change your mood."

What would I do at your house?

"Hey, have you ever heard of the video game Monster Hunter?"

"..."

"Logan? Logan, are you listening?"

Logan had an urge to hang up the phone right then and there.

But since that was his best friend, he finally suppressed his anger towards the video game and said, "I don't really want to go, I just want to have a drink."

"Drinking? Sure, I've arranged to come over to my place with some friends to play Monster Hunter. We were only one player short, but the three of us can still play. If you want to play, you can join us. If you don't want to play, you can have a few drinks with us. What do you think? Maybe this will ease your anxiety. Who knows, you might suddenly have a burst of inspiration and go back and write an interesting book?"

Logan naturally wouldn't believe such things so easily, but if it's just about drinking... that's fine too.

"Okay, I'll come to your place tonight, but are you really going to play that game? What's so fun about it?"

"Logan, let me tell you, this thing is absolutely addictive. Even though it's just hunting monsters over and over again, every successful hunt is so satisfying that you just can't stop."

Logan interrupted, saying, "Alright, alright, I don't really want to hear this. I'll buy the wine and come to your place."

Chapter 749 The New Hunt

749

"I brought the wine."

Logan brought his best wine to his friend's house.

"Ah, you've come at the perfect time! We were just about to start, and there's still a spot here. Want to join us?"

At my friend's house, there were already four television sets in the living room.

Each television set had a GSX game console in front of it, and all of them were already in the game.

"No, I just came to watch you guys have some fun."

Logan was very resistant to games because his work was unpopular, and he subconsciously believed that it was all thanks to video games.

"What a pity, we even bought another game console just in case you wanted to play together. Why don't you give it a try? Who knows, it might even spark some inspiration for your novel?"

"Heh, how could that be? A game is just a game; it doesn't bring any positive effects," Logan said dismissively.

As he spoke, he opened several bottles of wine and handed them to his friends and a few of his acquaintances.

"Thanks! Okay, here we go! Let's take down the Anjanath!"

The group first downed a beer, then joined the hunt.

"Tch, what's so fun about this thing?"

Logan was indignant. This thing should only be for children to play with, and adults shouldn't have any interest in it anymore.

As he drank his beer, he began to think about ideas for his new work.

Well, for my next book, I'm going to write about a beautiful woman, a woman who has to be absolutely stunning.

He began racking his brains to recall the image of that beautiful woman.

However, the people around him were very noisy, often interrupting his thoughts.

However, he didn't care; he was just thinking about it casually.

Every now and then, he would look at the three of them engrossed in playing Monster Hunter with a scrutinizing and disdainful gaze.

What's the point of a game where a bunch of guys in weird clothes wield bizarre weapons to fight a giant monster?

If it were him, he would definitely add some super cannons or ballistic missiles to it. Wouldn't that be much more efficient than greatswords or katanas?

I really don't know how this kind of entertainment, which deliberately sets a high level of difficulty for people, became so popular.

He continued to pour himself more alcohol, and before he knew it, more than ten minutes had passed.

"Wow! Hunt successful! Let's see what materials you got!"

"Hahaha, the Anjanath's jewel! Today is my lucky day!"

One of them suddenly jumped up and cheered. Logan couldn't understand why this guy was so excited; it was just a game...

At the same time, he was also a little envious, envious that a game could make these people so happy. He thought how wonderful it would be if his own work could have the same effect.

Thinking about this, he became even more envious.

Forget about that, let's think about the beautiful women coming up next...

"Hey Logan, when are you planning to go back?"

After the three of them finished defeating a monster, they seemed to be planning to take a break. They each grabbed a bottle of beer and started chatting about the game. Logan's friend remembered Logan and struck up a conversation with him.

"I'll just have a few drinks and see how things go. How long do you guys plan to stay together?"

"We're prepared to work late into the night because a new game is releasing at midnight, and we're all waiting for it!"

These people seemed very excited when talking about the new game; it was clear that the game was of great interest to them.

Logan didn't think much of it, but it was still nice to have a drink together.

"By the way, would you like to try some games? I actually highly recommend you play games; you should relax sometimes."

"No, I'm not interested in that."

Logan declined; he really didn't want to get involved in these things.

That's a real shame.

After Logan's friend finished speaking, he looked at the two acquaintances he had invited over to play games and asked, "Shall we go hunting again?"

"Come on, this game is amazing! How can we not play it to our heart's content?"

The other two were still in high spirits.

This is a new high-definition remaster of Monster Hunter. Previously, due to the limitations of handheld consoles, Monster Hunter's textures were pixelated and had sharp edges.

This time, its direct release on the GSX console brought a major leap forward in the graphics of Monster Hunter World.
