This Is Not a Bug but a Game Feature-Chapter 98 - 95: New Restroom Paper Industry Standard (2)
Do you habitually smell the scent of toilet paper before wiping your butt?
The most terrifying thing about "Divine Grace Continent" is that there are too many NPCs, enough to mass-produce toilet paper.
Moreover, each NPC is an independent character from the Otherworld; once you lock on their perspective, their journey can be a new season of Otherworldly animation.
What should we do about this?
The Otherworld genre was already crowded, and now there’s a cross-industry disruptor who directly set new benchmark standards for Otherworld toilet paper animations.
After this, new Otherworld releases that don’t meet the quality might find it hard to shamelessly air.
The audience won’t accept it either.
After all, if you’re not good enough, why would I watch your toilet paper when Divine Grace’s videos are available? Even though it’s a game, the output is massive, ensuring satisfaction without the worry of running out of paper.
"Divine Grace Continent, the new standard in Otherworld toilet paper!"
At the end of the report, the media furiously expressed that animation companies producing toilet paper should put in more effort.
You’re producing toilet paper with minimal quantity and, key issue, it doesn’t even clean well. Is that usable?
Look at Tianba Studio’s "Divine Grace Continent," producing toilet paper on a production line, strictly controlling quality, and the output is high!
If more effort isn’t made, high-end toilet paper might still find users, but lower-end Otherworld toilet paper animations will be completely outshone by "Divine Grace Continent."
"It’s already outshone!"
Yang Dong couldn’t help but laugh: "There are new Otherworld animations out, and the comments section is flooded with remarks like ’not as good as Divine Grace Continent’."
If it’s not even as good as Divine Grace Continent, what’s the use of your toilet paper?
Ba, the beacon of the toilet paper industry!
A top 100 creator in the Thunderbolt animation section, in the latest episode of "New Releases Guide," furiously criticized a trashy original Otherworld release.
"Honestly, I don’t know what the writers were thinking. The Otherworld theme is already so competitive, who even dares to embarrass themselves with this level?"
"My suggestion is, why not get a copy of ’Divine Grace Continent’ to play, and see how Ba makes toilet paper!"
"Some might ask who Ba is, and what new Otherworld work is Divine Grace Continent..."
"The answer is neither. Divine Grace Continent is an RPG adventure game developed by Tianba Studio, and Ba is the producer of this game."
"This game is also known as the international standard for toilet paper. Any animation not meeting this standard doesn’t even deserve a glance..."
As the saying goes, top-tier companies set standards, mid-tier companies build brands, low-tier ones make products, and the worst ones sell their buildings!
Although Tianba Studio lacks the capability to set standards in the gaming industry, in the toilet paper sector, "Divine Grace Continent" has become the new standard.
The audience is fine, they’re open to it.
Spending 68 bucks to enjoy a ’binge of toilet paper’ truly is a great deal.
However, animation companies look constipated, especially those producing Otherworld toilet paper animations, wishing to mince the so-called "Ba" into paste.
Why would a game developer like you come mess with the animation industry, do you even have a say here?
Security, where’s security?
Quickly escort this GameBugs out, don’t let him promote mass-produced toilet paper worth 68 bucks here!
"Huh? A new industry standard?"
Chen Ba, who unintentionally set an industry standard, was a bit taken aback hearing this. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Is setting an industry standard this simple?
Isn’t it said that only top-tier companies can set industry standards? So by this logic, does that make Tianba Studio a top-tier company?
"Actually, it’s pretty understandable."
Seizing a moment while Ba and Dong were chatting, Lu, who had just finished a pork knuckle, wiped his mouth with a napkin and said: "Don’t underestimate the phrase ’massive, ensures satisfaction.’"
"Think about it, if one day an internet company developed an AI game creation software. Enter some keywords and new games are generated. What impact would that have on the gaming industry?"
"That makes sense."
Yang Dong nodded: "If such software existed, it would undoubtedly be disastrous for many complacent game developers."
For top-tier game creators, such an occurrence would have some influence, but AI can’t reach that level.
But for the mid to lower-tier, those resting on their laurels, it would be catastrophic.
If the games they develop aren’t as entertaining as AI-generated ones, they won’t attract players, especially with AI’s terrifying ’massive output.’
"This example isn’t quite accurate, we should use today’s AI drawing as an example."
Chen Ba explained: "’Divine Grace Continent’ is akin to a large model in AI painting. While it has various flaws, its massive output and industrial production are its biggest advantages."
The highly skilled artists can still earn because AI hasn’t replaced them yet.
However, those who aren’t skilled and are lazy to learn and improve are destined for unemployment when faced with AI competition.
"Divine Grace Continent" has just these conditions.
Looking from the Otherworld toilet paper animation standard perspective, the animation produced based on this game isn’t particularly outstanding or impressive since it’s still a game!
So, those already exceptional Otherworld animations won’t be affected, they will continue to thrive...
But those shoddily made Otherworld toilet paper animations will feel helpless against the "Divine Grace Continent," not knowing what to do.
The industrially mass-produced toilet paper is more user-friendly, has more output, and is even cheaper in some respects, so how do you compete?
The audience isn’t blind.
Previously, they tolerated various poorly made Otherworld toilet paper because there was no choice, with only a few new animations.
Now, is it the same?
Spending 68 bucks allows a binge on "Divine Grace Continent," and poorly made Otherworld toilet paper animations have lost their reason for survival.
"But I didn’t intend to produce toilet paper, let alone set a toilet paper industry standard..."
Picking up a piece of braised meat only to find it was a potato, Chen Ba’s expression was somewhat bitter: "I just wanted to make a good RPG game and then go to TGA to receive an award."
"Don’t think about TGA anymore."
Yang Dong consoled: "The good news is, this year’s Best Online Animation award is likely going to ’Jen’s Adventure,’ so you might get to bask in glory and receive an award then."
Chen Ba: "..."
As a game developer, is it appropriate to receive an award at an animation award ceremony?
I want to win the TGA grand prize!
"No worries! If we can’t get TGA, we have other awards. It’s said Daren Shuo is going to give us the Best Distributor Award..."
Lu’s consolation not only didn’t work but made Chen Ba even more depressed after hearing it.
Best Online Animation Award, Best Distributor Award from a graphics card company... these awards don’t sound like formal awards!
Can’t Tianba Studio, as a game studio, win some game-related awards?
Otherwise, if people come to visit Tianba Studio and see the honor display wall, wouldn’t they immediately start questioning their life, thinking they’re in the wrong place?
"Game-related..."
Yang Dong pondered: "It’s not like there aren’t any, the Dream Building Engine official invited us to the annual developer conference! ’Star Emperor’ is a strong candidate for this year’s best development case."
The officials of Dream Building Engine highly value the game "Star Emperor," every time they promote the Dream Five Engine, they showcase "Star Emperor."
Of course, that’s not the worst.
The worst are Old Huang and Su Mom, every time N and A cards release new technology and card demonstrations, they use "Star Emperor."
Old Huang doesn’t mind gamers much, just chats occasionally.
Su Mom, on the other hand, is different.
The A card soared in "Star Emperor," to prove that A cards don’t just fight future battles but can compete with N cards even now, they have to bring up "Star Emperor," right?
