Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

"This...this is truly amazing! How can a game be made like this?!"

"I can't say anything anymore."

A dozen seconds later, the support from 'Giant Hard Group' also exploded.

And this time, support arrived once again.

A support program called "DSLR camera will bankrupt three generations" has arrived.

Boom!

Support called 'Headphones Ruin Your Life' has arrived.

Boom boom boom!

A support mission called 'Nintendo is the world's most powerful and invincible' has arrived.

……

Every time reinforcements fail to withstand the explosion, new reinforcements will arrive.

This time it's like they've activated invincible mode.

The shock in the audience's hearts grew stronger and stronger.

This is absolutely insane.

This is what everyone is thinking.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the BOSS that unleashed endless barrages was defeated.

The ending was thus rewritten.

2B and 9S, who were originally dead, were rescued in time by two POD units.

On the other side of the screen, A2 also seems to have been reborn.

The story finally comes to a complete end at this moment.

"A perfect ending! A truly perfect ending!"

"So this game really does have a perfect ending!"

For some reason, players and viewers began to cry tears of joy because of a game.

Even people who haven't cried in a long time shed tears today.

This battle was incredibly difficult.

But the reward after the hardship fulfilled everyone's hopes.

Although the final scene ends abruptly with two POD units appearing in front of 2B and 9S's corpses.

This seems to be another open ending; no one knows whether it's truly a happy ending.

But at this moment, the players are completely satisfied.

In the very end, the POD machine posed a soul-searching question.

Are you willing to help the vulnerable?

Helping the weak?

Upon seeing this question, the girl immediately thought of the names of all those who had helped her.

Are those people also willing to help the weak?

"However, if you help the weak, the price is that your data may be corrupted, that is, your archives."

The girl fell silent.

This save file was created with great effort and time; is it just going to be wasted like this?

The SL method might work? But it's still somewhat hard to accept.

But then the girl thought of the users who had helped and supported her.

She finally smiled knowingly, and tears streamed down her face.

Those were tears of joy.

And she now has a choice.

Of course, we should help the weak!

Even if the data is corrupted!

And this will be a scene that will be recorded in history.

Chapter 763 A Good Harvest

763

The story and walkthroughs of NieR: Automata are spreading across the internet at an astonishing rate.

The girl's live stream had already been recorded by someone with ulterior motives and uploaded to the internet for others to watch.

So even people who didn't watch the live stream knew about the girl's gameplay and the final ending of NieR: Automata.

This game isn't entirely dark; there's still a glimmer of hope.

Of course, this glimmer of hope is indeed very difficult to achieve and may require a great deal of effort.

But there is still hope.

Before long, related discussions began to spread rapidly online.

The discussion in various forums has shifted from the initial question of who 2B's wife is to the deeper reflections that the game brings to people's minds.

They began to seriously consider the story of the game itself and the insights it offered.

It seems a little ridiculous.

Many people consider video games to be worthless, but now some are starting to discuss their value.

At least NieR: Automata has its value.

Its emergence makes people seriously consider things they have never thought about before.

What is artificial intelligence?

Is it possible for machines to also become living entities?

Once machines become living beings, will they have the same status as humans?

For a moment, it seemed that the game itself was no longer so important.

The game's final ending is also a topic of much discussion among players.

This is a single-player game that you play alone, with no online multiplayer functionality.

However, through simple data exchange, NieR: Automata seemed to have gained a soul.

You may not be able to communicate directly with other players in the game.

However, you can choose to contribute your save file to help other players successfully pass the final level and achieve the perfect ending.

This is about giving players a glimmer of hope when they are in despair, and fulfilling their needs.

Of course, the process of achieving satisfaction also requires enough obstacles.

Just like the final stage of Titans' fall.

In Titanfall, players can display terrifying patience when faced with the wicked woman, dying repeatedly in the hopes of achieving victory and eliminating the enemy.

At this point, even the most difficult challenges can be accepted by players.

Players' tolerance threshold for high-difficulty games is also rising rapidly.

This has also created some chain reactions.

The popularity of games like Monster Hunter, which were previously very difficult, is also slowly increasing.

Players seem to have discovered that high-difficulty games are not so unbearable after all.

They even felt that a difficult game was a challenge, and that as long as they could beat it, they would have something to brag about to others.

In traditional games, there is no concept of becoming stronger by spending money, or rather, spending money is not emphasized.

Therefore, the only way to prove one's strength is to challenge high-difficulty games, win the final championship in e-sports competitions against other players, or achieve the world's fastest speedrun record in speedrunning games.

In short, the satisfaction that games bring can be ever-changing, and even the most difficult games have finally come to fruition at this moment.

Let's return to NieR: Automata itself.

Because the game's final, brilliant design served as a lesson for every game developer.

Games should never be confined to a certain mindset.

The purpose of a fixed mindset is to help you quickly master game development, not to make you proficient once and for all.

True creators are always looking for ways to create new things.

NieR: Automata achieved a remarkable feat by relying solely on very simple online interaction features.

Countless players responded to the game's call, willingly contributing their game saves to help the weak and give them a chance to experience the final ending—that's enough.

Even if it destroys your save file.

Then let it all crumble.

After all, I have also received support and help from others in the past.

Helping each other is something that players should naturally do.

Especially in games like this, sharing is the greatest achievement and reward.

NieR: Automata thus successfully gained wider popularity.

Sales, which had been slowly declining, suddenly surged again.

This led to a discrepancy between expected and actual game sales, and physical game cartridges began to be in short supply in some regions.

Zhu Youxing immediately ordered his flash memory factory to speed up production.

If necessary, the production lines for other game cartridges can be temporarily shut down to focus solely on producing NieR: Automata.
