This Is Not a Bug but a Game Feature-Chapter 104 - 99: Why Isn’t Anyone Rescuing the Princess?
3:00 AM at Tianba, relying on Mu.
Tianba Community.
The official forum, which used to maintain a daily active user count of hundreds to thousands, suddenly saw tens of thousands flock in due to the popularity of Divine Grace Continent.
Guo Mo hasn’t visited the community for a long time.
He’s been quite busy lately, with his grandfather sick and in the hospital, and his parents unable to return from out of town. So, he decided to stop streaming for a week to focus on caring for his elderly relative at the hospital.
His grandfather’s surgery went very well. He was discharged just yesterday, and today he went out with old buddies for a walk and a game of chess.
With nothing to do at home, Guo Mo simply turned on the stream to update his longtime viewers about his grandfather’s condition and check out the latest news about Star Emperor.
That’s right!
As a Star Emperor streamer, after being offline for so long, how could he not catch up with the game updates?
The main thing is to check the update announcements!
During his time away from streaming, did Tianba Studio release any new characters? Were the characters he often played nerfed or buffed? Were there any changes to the game?
With these thoughts in mind, Guo Mo opened the Tianba Official Website, logged into his account skillfully, and clicked into the player community.
He was dumbfounded upon entering the community.
From his grandfather falling ill to him stopping streaming and entering the hospital, and then his grandfather being discharged...calculating the time, he hasn’t visited the community for more than half a month at most.
In just half a month, how did the community change so much?
Previously, when entering Tianba Community, you’d be greeted with familiar threads, whether it was Cowherding Sect, GuMua Sect, or those who have walked far on Path to Immortality like Immortal King and Immortal Emperor; everyone exchanging insights here.
But now, it’s changed, with the player community divided into different sections based on the game and crowd!
"Beef Cattle Breeding," "Real Estate Transactions," "Digital Technology," "Anime Online," "Ba Support," and "Site Affairs"...
What the heck? What are all these?
Each of these subdivided sections has a name that feels unfamiliar and hard to understand to Guo Mo. Only "Site Affairs" makes sense to him, which should be the section for feedback and handling issues in the community and official website.
With a bit of curiosity, he moved the mouse, selected "Beef Cattle Breeding" section, clicked the left mouse button to confirm.
[Rational discussion, is Ba gone? Why hasn’t Cold Window Study Simulator been updated in so long?]
[A review of the 6th offline meeting of Cowherding Sect, the location of this gathering...]
[Hard drive broke, brothers, please repost Old Huang Cow’s spicy drawings!]
Got it, this is the Cowherding Sect’s headquarters! Also the section for players of Cold Window Study Simulator to exchange ideas.
Guo Mo seemed to understand why this section was named "Beef Cattle Breeding".
Next up, Real Estate Transactions!
This section is even livelier than the last one, filled with all kinds of discussions about Living Under Someone’s Roof Simulator.
There are also veteran players sharing their experiences, telling new players that buying property splits into just-need and investment types, but regardless which, the earlier you buy a house, the better...
Next, Digital Technology!
Upon opening this section, Guo Mo instantly felt at home.
Sure enough, this is the Star Emperor player exchange section. Eighty percent of the posts here are related to the Star Emperor game.
Why is it eighty percent?
The remaining twenty percent of posts, while not entirely unrelated to Star Emperor, mainly involve "Xianyu Digital".
Glancing at the latest popular and pinned posts in the "Digital Technology" section, Guo Mo felt informed.
During the week he stopped streaming, Star Emperor did undergo a routine maintenance update but didn’t release any new characters or make game balance changes.
The community players were mostly criticizing Ba, saying he forgot the old love with a new affection, as it’s been five months since Star Emperor released a new character!
"Indeed, huh!"
Thinking carefully, Guo Mo realized it’s true.
It’s been five months since the last new character Celestial Beetle Venerable was released for Star Emperor. Reasonably speaking, a new character should come out to appease the restless players.
But Ba...
Not releasing new characters is one thing, but being lazy about new skins too, yet Xianyu Digital was quite proactive in restocking,
While the entire net was short on series 40 cards, Xianyu Digital never lacked in stock for 4090 and 4080; whenever you go to buy, they always have them available.
Really showing off connections!
And who knows how many times Ba has sold his soul to get so many graphics cards from the vendor, with even scalpers having to get stock from him, his background is incredibly solid.
The most absurd part is, someone once shared their shopping experience, saying they bought a defective card at a flagship store on Daren Shuo’s online shop, and instantly requested a replacement with customer service.
Since it’s a 4090, the flagship store didn’t have much stock either; a refund was manageable, but replacing it with a new card was quite difficult.
Finally, customer service helplessly stated, "I’ll give you a full refund, but if you really want to buy our 4090, check out Xianyu Digital next door; Ba surely has stock..."
"Ah, Ba!"
Guo Mo shook his head, already too lazy to roast Ba further, after all, Ba just released a new game, having no time to update Star Emperor is understandable.
Speaking of the new game, he instantly got interested.
He plays Divine Grace Continent too, and was among the earliest batch to get the early access version, his curiosity about this game remains piqued.
So...could this "Anime Online" section be the exchange area for Divine Grace Continent players?
With a touch of curiosity, Guo Mo opened the community’s "Anime Online" section and started browsing the posts there.
