Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Just like his uncle said, there are many, many things you can do in this game.

At the beginning, he remembered his uncle saying that the game was also about saving the princess and the world.

But he soon forgot about it himself.

Zelda?

Princess?

world?

Sorry, I don't remember any of that. All I remember is that I could steal chickens and set fire to mountains.

In this game, you can steal chickens and set fire to mountains without worrying about getting caught, which gave him a sense of curiosity.

He also discovered that the monsters would sleep at night, and if he sneaked over, he could see the snot bubbles that the monsters blew out while snoring.

I wish I could pop those snot bubbles.

The little nephew thought so.

Davidson frowned as he watched his nephew running around like a fool, and several times he couldn't help but want to explain to his nephew how to play the game.

Finally, when he saw his nephew running in front of a girl in the game wearing only shorts, and the girl exclaiming that it was inappropriate, he couldn't help but go back to his nephew's side.

"Alright, I'll teach you how to play this game instead. You should collect all the Yahaha items, conquer the shrines, and..."

Before Davidson could finish speaking, he noticed his reluctant nephew.

"Uncle, didn't you say that this game allows us to do whatever we want? Why do we have to do anything specific?"

Davidson was momentarily speechless when asked the question.

Chapter 855 A Notice

855

Yes, in this world you can do whatever you want, even though this game doesn't even have a clear guide. It doesn't matter if you never go to save the princess.

So it seems unreasonable to dictate how one should play games to one's nephew.

For example, he himself forgot the original main storyline of the game and became so engrossed in running around and having fun every day.

Searching for Yahaha seems to have become part of his obsessive-compulsive disorder; he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't find 999 of them.

This is just one example of Davidson's recent experience playing Switch launch titles.

……

In a remote rural town in Europe, a notice caught Carson's attention.

It was a notice recruiting esports players in Europe, and the games they were recruiting for included CS:GO team battles, NBA games, Need for Speed, Mario Kart, Super Mario speedruns, and video game triathlons, among others.

What attracted him most was the player recruitment feature in the football league game. If he was successfully recruited, he could get a job with an annual salary of 100,000 euros. If he could win the European Championship or even the World Championship, he could also get additional bonuses.

Earning money while playing games – is there anything better?

Carson used to be a football hooligan who caused trouble everywhere, but he hasn't caused any trouble for a long time. Recently, he has even started to become a good person, and many people have begun to praise him.

In the past, many people avoided him like the plague.

He attributed this change to video games.

In the past, he was incredibly idle. He would occasionally work part-time just to make enough money for food, and he had no other ambitions. He didn't even consider getting married. He spent his days drinking and gambling with his cronies, or watching the latest sports games on TV in bars. If his favorite team lost, he would go out with his cronies and get into a fight with the supporters of other teams.

He felt that it would be fine for his life to just pass by like this.

Later, after he discovered video games, he began to have higher aspirations. First, he wanted to be able to play games, then he wanted to own his own game console, and later he wanted to have a good environment to play games.

Now he goes to work on time and comes home on time to relax on his newly bought soft sofa and play the latest football game.

He enjoys this kind of life.

Moreover, he has recently become a very famous football player in bars.

Of course, it's the soccer player in the video game.

Now he is invincible in this small town.

Gradually, he began to feel somewhat bored with football games, only occasionally regaining his interest when the latest game was released.

He had just saved up enough money to buy the latest Switch game console and thoroughly experienced playing football games with near-console-level graphics anytime, anywhere on his mobile device.

Now, even when he's working, he can still find time to play a couple of games, and he's even successfully made a good friend through it, and even... a girlfriend.

This was something that would have been unthinkable in the past.

Just when he was starting to get bored, the recruitment notice posted on the town's bulletin board rekindled his enthusiasm.

"We cordially invite anyone passionate about video games to join us and become a professional esports player! Registration location: *** Street *** No.."

Without hesitation, he tore down the recruitment notice and ran home.

"Debbie, Debbie, I want to tell you something."

Carson ran home with the recruitment notice in his hand, and excitedly ran to his girlfriend in the living room without even taking off his shoes.

At that moment, his girlfriend was engrossed in playing a game with a controller when she saw Carson suddenly blocking her view and immediately panicked.

"Carson, move aside! I'm playing a game!"

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

"There's some food I made in the microwave. You eat first, and I'll play this game for a bit more before I eat."

Carson's girlfriend, Debbie, continued watching the television.

Carson turned his head and saw that his girlfriend was playing Titanfall. His girlfriend was very fond of shooting games, and the two of them got together because of their shared love for video games. They understood each other's hobbies and didn't have any disagreements because of them. This was also why Carson liked Debbie the most. As for her appearance, it didn't matter anymore.

His girlfriend's favorite thing to do was play ranked matches in Titanfall. If he dared to interfere with her ranked matches, she would get so angry that she would throw him over her shoulder. He had experienced that firsthand. So he stopped bothering her and wisely went to the microwave to get the food that had already been heated up. Then he returned to the living room and patiently ate while waiting for his girlfriend to finish her match.

On television, Debbie's Pilot character seemed to possess the ability to fly and dart through the air, soaring and tumbling across an area, often managing to kill several opponents in a row within just a few breaths.

In the game Titanfall, Debbie is also very famous in the town, and she even has a place on the competitive leaderboard of Titanfall in the entire European region.

A few minutes later, Debbie successfully finished the game. Looking at her competitive score, Debbie smiled with satisfaction before putting down the controller.

"Are you hungry? Eat something first." Carson cleverly picked up a piece of cheese and held it to Debbie's lips. Debbie took a bite and then said, "By the way, were you trying to say something to me earlier?"

"Oh, that's what I wanted to tell you."

Carson quickly pulled a folded piece of paper from his pocket and spread it out on the table for Debbie to see.

While Debbie was looking at the notice intently, Carson spoke up, "I've been thinking about this notice for a long time. I feel like working in this small town every day is really boring. I really want to go out and see the world. And if I can do this job well, the salary is pretty good. Maybe in the future we can really buy our own house..."

"Carson, are you serious?" Debbie looked up at Carson intently.

"Yes, I want to give it a try. Even if it doesn't work out, it can still be a trip for us."

Debbie said, "But we don't have much money right now."

Carson answered without hesitation, "I can take on two more jobs recently. I've already calculated it. There's still a month until this recruitment, and if I work hard, I should be able to save up five thousand euros in a month, including my current money. Five thousand euros can also be used as a fund for a trip. What do you think?"

Chapter 856 Conquering Cities and Territories

856

Carson was trying his best to recommend this so-called esports recruitment to Debbie.

If successful, I will get a better job than I have now.

His current job is just doing odd jobs every day, which is enough to support the two of them, but it's obviously impossible to do anything better.

Unless he works even harder and takes on multiple jobs.

This esports recruitment notice feels perfect for me.

If it fails, then it's just like a trip for two to a big city, so it doesn't seem like a bad deal.

Now, he has almost completely lost his former troublemaking nature and has gradually returned to calm. However, the fire in his heart will not be easily extinguished, and it has been completely ignited by the e-sports recruitment notice.

"Debbie, what do you think?" Carson talked on and on, but Debbie barely responded, which made him somewhat worried, so he tentatively and cautiously asked.

“Look at this.” Debbie had actually been looking at the notice intently the whole time, and now that Carson had asked her question, she picked it up and pointed to a corner.

"Is this notice also about the Titanfall competition?"

Carson looked closely and found the figure of a fallen Titan in an inconspicuous corner.

Today, Titanfall and CS:GO have become two benchmark games in the first-person shooter genre.

Titanfall is a game that emphasizes high mobility and individual skill. The skill ceiling in this game is extremely high, and the difference between players can be enormous.

CSGO places more emphasis on teamwork. While individual skill can certainly influence the outcome of a match to some extent, the strategy and tactics of the on-site commander, along with other factors, have a greater impact on the game.

Having superior strength is only one factor in winning, which is significantly different from the fall of the Titans.

CS:GO has a loyal following, and since the introduction of loot boxes for rare weapon skins, some players have become even more enthusiastic about obtaining various items, creating a new revenue model for Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

But in terms of visual appeal, the Titanfall's flying and darting battles are the most dazzling and captivating, easily drawing casual viewers in.

In Titanfall esports competitions, there are both solo and team battles. The most watched games are the opposite of those in CS:GO. While CS:GO viewers prefer team battles, Titanfall viewers tend to enjoy individual free-for-alls.

Many people enjoy the chaotic battle mode where 32 players compete to determine the final winner.

At the time, when Takeyusei saw this trend, he was considering whether to quit Apex, as it might be quite suitable for the tastes of this world. However, due to limited time, he did not push the project forward.

As a popular title, how could esports competitions be complete without Titanfall?

“Debbie, do you mean to…” Carson blinked and looked at Debbie.

Debbie grinned: "Why not? You want to participate in esports for the football league, so take me with you. It's the same whether you participate alone or with someone else."

Carson was taken aback, not expecting that his recommendation would actually make Debbie interested in esports as well.

"Right now, I'm ranked in the top 100 in Europe. If I really play, I might actually have a chance."

"So, Debbie, you mean you agree?"

"Of course, I would definitely agree, after all, it features my favorite Titanfall!"

"Okay! Then I'll take on several jobs tomorrow!"

"No, let's take on more jobs together and split the burden equally. We can't put all the pressure on you. Since we both want to become esports players, we both need to have enough time to train hard and not waste too much time working."
