MARVEL: GAME MAKER SYSTEM-Chapter 94: Royal Store

Alex was seeing the reaction of Tony and the viewers on his livestream and he was quite satisfied, after all, this was exactly the reaction he wanted to see, after all, all players imagined that they would enter Fortnite just to play a Battle Royale game , where they would use firearms to kill other players, which despite looking quite interesting for something on a computer screen, was also something very scary for shy people.

Despite worrying about it, as Minecraft had surprised them with so many new and different things they could do, these people also had a bit of faith that maybe Mojang had thought of them too and done something in the game that was a little less aggressive. .

Some players even thought about the scene of being able to drive the different cars and thought that that would be quite interesting. Mostly players under 18 around the world, who would hardly be allowed to drive, as it was theoretically illegal, and even if it was allowed, as in America, there were still many restrictions.

So the audience interested only in driving in Fortnite was just smaller than the audience interested in shooting guns, after all, that's what the game was about.

So when the information that in Fortnite it was possible to buy a car and customize it to be able to use it in a future Mojang game, car fans around the world started to pay even more attention to this game.

Alex had spent a few million GP to add functionality like this, sure, just adding the option to drive and customize the car wasn't that expensive, but adding up every little detail Alex had added in this lobby, only he knew how expensive it was been.

That was the main reason why it took him so long to develop Fortnite even with the help of the system, which made game development a lot easier for him.

With Minecraft sales increasing so much, Alex decided to spend the GP he received on it to start accelerating the virtual world he intended to develop, as he had no use for those points right away.

Following the idea he had from the movie he saw in his previous world called "Ready Player One", Alex also intended to make a complete virtual world, so he needed a lot of settings from a lot of different games added on that platform so that even players can make their own games, and their custom rooms in the future, just like the version Alex played in the previous world, VRChat.

Although VRChat does not compare to "RPO", even with technology limited to the year 2018, which was when it was successful, the game managed to deliver a fantastic immersive experience, and considering the freedom that players had to make worlds, Alex intended to release this to the people of this world after a while too, of course, a few years from now, as it was much more profitable to be the sole developer for now.

But seeing how players were reacting, Alex smiled happily knowing that the choice he made was the right one, even if the spending to develop Fortnite had increased so much, it would still be worth it. Especially as he looked at the game's stats and saw how many people were already spending money on it in those few minutes of release.

For the time being, being able to drive was exclusive to Fortnite, since the connection of worlds was disabled and the player needed a minute disconnected from the game to be able to transfer his consciousness to another game, which did not even have automatic connection with the other game, which greatly increased Alex's GP spending to support the exchange of information from the two servers for players who have VIP in Minecraft to have the same benefits in Fortnite.

Of course, 100 players paying $800 a month in VIP didn't spend as much GP as it generated, but that was still a large amount of profit that Alex lost over time, so he had a goal of buying the games link in the near future. .

With that, not only would he have less expenses for this exchange of information, but he could also make options such as for players to cross from one game to another, replacing the current wait of at least one minute, for a simple portal that the player would cross instantly, which he knew would make a world of difference to the public's opinion of the games.

Thus, the image in Alex's mind where a player dressed as a Chef would leave a game like Cooking Simulator where he would learn to cook and manage a virtual restaurant, would sit in a HyCoffee to meet friends, who were wearing armor after fight a powerful Boss in an RPG, thus making players from other games find each other, notice the particularity of each other, and become interested in the games that other players were playing, generating even more income for Alex.

Of course, with the development so advanced in the virtual world, Alex knows that this can generate complications for the real world, since people's minds were something very delicate and that a simple thought that it was better to live in the virtual world than in the real world real would be enough to extinguish the human race.

That's why he was already developing some plans so that players could enjoy the virtual world as well as the real world, especially with some of the more expensive options he found in the System store.

Seeing that Tony got distracted while buying a car and starting to customize it, Alex opened another tab and started looking for another livestream that was testing Fortnite.

Looking at the graph of Twitch viewers across the different games, Alex had a wry smile on his face.

While third place only had 100k viewers, Minecraft was in second place with 15 million viewers, and Fortnite in first place was at a whopping 50 million!

The number was small compared to the amount of spectators during the Fortnite Tournament that Alex held, but that was understandable, after all, while in the Tournament players could only watch Fortnite, now Alex had released it so that players could also play, so instead of watching the livestream, most people were playing the game.

But looking at the Streamers list, Alex saw a familiar livestream among the top 50 most watched Fortnite streamers.

[Crawler] was broadcasting to over 200k people. In the thumbnail on the screen, Alex chuckled as he saw Kurt and two players beside him, one named [Summers] and one named [Bee] customizing cars at the NFS dealership.

Ignoring these car fanatics, Alex looked at the list of streamers again and saw that the Top 1 Streamer was currently Ned, which didn't surprise him too much, since Ned has been the Top 1 Streamer in Minecraft since the game launched, it would be weird if someone passed him suddenly.

Of the 50 million viewers currently watching Fortnite, 20 million were on Ned's livestream, which represented 40% of the game's total, a staggering number, breaking all his livestream records.

In the thumbnail of the livestream that Alex was looking at, Ned was currently standing in front of a store with a large golden emblem in the center.

The appearance of the shop was quite noble, a majestic white with beautiful golden details while yellow magic particles surrounded the place, making the appearance of it even more magical.

Opening the livestream, Alex saw that besides Ned and Petter there was a crowd of curious players looking at that store.

Curious, Ned entered the store with Peter beside him as the other players followed behind, looking around.

"Good morning sir, may I help you?" A woman dressed in the clothing of a noblewoman from the Middle Ages said politely.

Looking at the woman, Ned realized that she was the NPC responsible for serving the players in this shop, and he asked in confusion. "What does this store sell?"

Hearing his question, both the millions of viewers on the livestream paid attention, and the other players in the store also became quiet.

The woman smiled politely as she answered. "Just like the name on the front of the store says, this is the Royale Store, here we sell only the best quality items, whether it's backpacks, gliders, clothing, skins, and all sorts of Fortnite related stuff ."

While she was saying the explanation, the woman started to walk while pointing to some places.

When she said about the backpacks, players followed her gaze and saw some backpacks glowing gold as they were equipped by some white mannequins.

Players were shocked at how cool those backpacks were, as these backpacks had quite different appearances, such as a baby dragon that belched fire every now and then, or a white eye that glared at every player that came close, even a blinking heart. blank every now and then, which apparently flashed harder the more people the player eliminated.

When she talked about the Glider, players saw a glowing golden disk that rotated beneath the feet of one of the mannequins, a magical Skateboard that apparently shot colored fire from the wheels as it descended from the sky, even a green oriental dragon was possible. purchase.

Seeing that they could ride a dragon while getting off the bus, several players felt that they would look really cool while doing so, and felt that they should definitely do it.

When she talked about the outfits, players saw some pretty stylish pieces of clothing, with some even boasting technological and magical visual effects that they'd never seen in real life.

And finally, when she talked about Skins, players were shocked by the Skins they could get, especially when they saw the Skin that was available in the center of the store… Herobrine!

"Is Herobrine a Purchasable Skin?" A player asked a little out of breath, excited to be able to use the Skin of his favorite Minecraft character.

The woman responded with a smile. "Yes, Herobrine's Skin is purchasable. All skins that appear here are purchasable, of course, in 24 hours the skins that are here will disappear, and other new skins will arrive."

"But is it possible to buy these skins from today another day?" Another player asked worriedly.

"Yes." The woman responded with a professional smile, which made the players a little more relaxed, until she continued. "I just can't tell you when it will show up again…"

Hearing this, players were shocked and almost choked, feeling that they should be sure to buy the Herobrine Skin today, as they didn't know when they could buy it again.

Especially when they saw the things that came with the skin, being an enchanted diamond pickaxe with the appearance of the minecraft pickaxe, this skin's backpack was a skin similar to the Ender Dragon pain, but with the face of a Ghast, and the hang glider was an Elytra!

"And lastly, this is our flagship item, something you can even use to get Fortnite Credits and earn free Skins in-game!" She said with a smile as she pointed to a golden brooch that looked like a noble shield with wings on the side.

When Alex saw her showing this pin to the players, an even bigger smile appeared on his face, as this pin was the reason why Fortnite was one of the most profitable games in his previous world, the Battle Pass...

'How much money will this make me today?' Alex thought excitedly as he looked at the game's stats.
