MARVEL: GAME MAKER SYSTEM-Chapter 19: Help
"What the fuck…" Ned wondered aloud confused and scared.
"I…I don't know…" Peter also said confused.
Meanwhile in Ned's livestream chat there was confusion among the viewers.
[Hey guys, what the fuck? ]
[Fuck... I have no idea... ]
[Minecraft is also a horror game? ]
[What movie is this? ]
[This is not a movie, it's a game called Minecraft, it's on Steam! ]
[This is a game?!?! I thought I was watching a horror movie! ]
[Did anyone understand that song that was playing? ]
[I heard some "Herobrine" and some confusing stuff! ]
[Herobrine is the name of this player? ]
[Is this a player? I thought it was a monster! ]
[Maybe this is a Minecraft monster? ]
[It's quite possible, since he had his own music. ]
Various theories were popping up among Ned's viewers, people were stipulating whether this was a Hacker or a monster.
People even cut that part of the livestream and started posting it on other sites so that other people could also see what they saw.
Within hours, this subject became trending.
[Herobrine, a movie, a game, a monster, a ghost... no one knows. ]
It was the most viewed post about Herobrine.
Even though Shield was desperately trying to prevent users from accessing these articles, but apparently everything related to Minecraft was impossible to delete, the only thing they could do was prevent this publication from being recommended by the sites' algorithms.
But that didn't stop other players from telling friends and sending the links directly for them to join and see.
The publication was already with over 100,000 views and was rising rapidly.
The comments were diverse.
[Is this a new movie they're making? Why are the characters square? ]
[I have to admit, even though it's weird to see these square characters their animations are very realistic, the developers of this movie must have spent a lot of money to use motion-capture on it! ]
[Guys, this is not a movie, it's a game called Minecraft, you can look it up on Steam and you'll find the game so you can play and try it out too! This isn't even a Cut-scene of the game, but true Gameplay! ]
[A game? I'll search. ]
But suddenly, a print appeared in the comments of this publication leaving players a little relieved.
[Minecraft minor update. ]
[Herobrine has been removed. ]
Some players who didn't know about Herobrine were confused and went researching it to see what this removed Herobrine was, but when they saw what it was, they were very happy that it was actually removed.
[Damn, that was scary! If I had been playing and this happened to me I would have had a heart attack! ]
[I'm glad Herobrine didn't show up to me while I was playing... ]
[Damn, I wanted to see this Herobrine with my own eyes, he looked so cool! ]
[Me either! It must be fun to play a horror game on minecraft, has anyone found a server with this theme? ]
[I'm going to change my minecraft skin to Herobrine Skin hehe. ]
When Alex logged onto Hypixel the next day, dozens of players were wearing a Herobrine-like skin. Of course, their eyes were different, as Herobrine's eyes had no pupils and glowed, while players could only make their pupils white. But that was enough for them to enjoy themselves.
Several players asked to take pictures with these people with Herobrine Skins to post on social media.
Alex noticed that the number of minecraft sales had increased a lot. Of the 1,900 units sold the day before, today it had 7,000 units sold.
In order not to make Hypixel chaotic, Alex programmed so that only players with 2 hours of SinglePlayer mode could use Multiplayer mode, making the number of players in Hypixel not so crowded yet.
'Really, good publicity for the game is really always done by the players themselves. If I had been trying to do paid advertising, it probably wouldn't have attracted so many people, but by making a mystery to the players, they were already spreading the game to their friends.' Alex thought with a smile as he flew over the Hypixel.
The atmosphere among the players was very good, there were many players desperately playing Hunger Games and Build Battle, while other players tried their best to kill Ender Dragon, but still, there were casual players who just hung out in the Lobby chatting with friends and having fun when exploring the big city from the server.
Seeing these people happy, Alex thought it was worth developing Minecraft. Just as it was happy for a cook to see the dishes he made being enjoyed by people, for a game developer the same thing happened to seeing people having fun in the games he made.
After a while Alex spotted a well-known person walking around the city of Hypixel with a curious and shy look.
With a smile on his face, Alex flew into an alley that was empty of Hypixel and became visible again.
Walking casually through town, Alex "coincidentally" bumped into the person he had noticed.
Anna was startled when someone bumped into her, but seeing who it was she felt better. "Notch!" She said happily.
"Hi Anna, what a coincidence!" Notch said with a smile.
"Yes! I was looking for the Banner to buy VIP but with so many new people showing up I felt a little uncomfortable." She said as she scratched the back of her neck.
"Ahh yes, don't worry, it's a few meters in that direction, if you want I can accompany you there." Notch said with a smile as he reached for her.
Anna was a little surprised by how he was acting, since even playing Minecraft for a few days, she was still not used to physical contact with other people, after all, habits of a few years can't disappear in a few days, not to mention she must still maintain this habit in the real world.
But still, she decided to enjoy this experience of holding a man's hand while walking around town for the first time.
Cheeks slightly reddened, Anna took Notch's hand and followed him as she enjoyed the sensation.
It took them three minutes to walk from where they were to where the VIP Banner was, but in Anna's mind it was only three seconds. They didn't say anything to each other in that time, but they both enjoyed the silence as something comfortable.
So much for Anna who hasn't had any contact with a man like that for years besides her first boyfriend, who she left in a coma after a kiss, So much for Alex, who had only dated a farm girl in his previous life, but because they don't match, they broke up in just a week.
"Here we are." Notch said with a smile to Anna.
"Thanks." She thanked him with a smile that Alex found quite cute.
"Anna?" A voice asked in surprise.
"You know me?" Anna asked confused as she looked at a man with long hair pacing back and forth.
"Ohh, you're that public school teacher!" Notch said with a smile after recognizing the man.
