Chapter 65 Lu Xian's Concerns
When it was dinner time, Lu Yu couldn't wait to come to the dinner table.
"Son, go call your mother out for dinner."
Lu Xian poked his head out of the kitchen and gave instructions to Lu Yu.
"Okay!"
Lu Yu nodded, opened the bedroom door, and walked in.
"Mom, it's late..."
His voice stopped suddenly and he was stunned for a moment.
Lu Yu pushed the door open and saw his mother sitting in front of the computer. On the screen was the game he had been playing since his childhood, "Minecraft."
"Eh? Mom, why have you started playing "Minecraft" too?"
He has never seen his mother play games a few times since he was a child.
"I saw an advertisement on TV today, and suddenly I wanted to play for a while. I want to look back at the feeling of playing games in the past. I really miss it."
Yin Li sighed. With so many things going on at home, and her poor health, how could she have time to do this?
She also saw the advertisement for "Minecraft Online" on TV today, and then her hands were itchy and she couldn't help but start playing.
She was also an Internet addict when she was young, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to see Lu Xian in eye-to-eye.
When Lu Yu and Yin Li walked to the dining table, Lu Xian had already put all the dishes on the table.
"Is it possible that today is a holiday? Why are the dishes so rich?"
Yin Li opened the chair and sat down. She looked at the delicacies on the table and asked curiously.
"Honey, today is a very memorable day, do you still remember it?"
Lu Xian chuckled and pretended to be mysterious.
"today?"
Yin Li was stunned when she heard this, and her mind fell into deep thought.
After thinking for a while, she still didn't recall it, so she had to shake her head at him.
"Then I won't lie! Today is the 20th anniversary of the day we met in the game!"
Yin Li suddenly realized that she remembered that it was on such a day that she met Lu Xian in the game.
It's not that I didn't know, but I was shocked. Time flies. In the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed since the two first met.
"Dad, can I ask you something?"
Lu Yu asked curiously.
"What's up?"
"Which of you chased who first back then? I want to hear the truth, so don't fool me!"
Yin Li and Lu Xian looked at each other, not expecting their son to be such a gossip.
"Son, I am not bragging to you. Your father and I were a well-known big shot in the server back then. He was proud of the whole server with his precise shooting skills. Your mother was my ultimate little fan girl back then. If you don't believe me, just ask her. ”
As soon as he talked about his heroic deeds back then, Lu Xian couldn't stop. He praised him so loudly that it made Lu Yu feel a little dizzy.
"I don't know which fool he was. He secretly stuffed diamonds and equipment into my box. He even wore a suit of armor and went around looking for fights. In the end, he was hacked to death with a few swords."
Not to be outdone, Yin Li also revealed Lu Xian's embarrassing things.
"I...I, isn't it because you are too skilled! So I took off all my equipment and weapons for you to wear. Otherwise, how could you beat me with the strength of Milk Tea?"
Lu Xian blushed at what he said and explained quickly.
The majestic image he had finally built up in front of his son could not just collapse.
Lu Yu looked at his parents helplessly and sighed.
Why did he feel that these two people were not quarreling, but showing naked affection?
Have you never considered the idea of being single?
"Okay, okay, you two, stop arguing. I haven't even eaten yet, and I'm almost fed by your expired dog food."
Lu Yu stretched out his hand to signal the two of them to stop talking. He was like an outsider now.
Lu Xian and his wife looked at each other and smiled, with a hint of sweetness on their faces.
"By the way, Dad, Mom, I bought you two a pair of the latest gaming glasses. "Minecraft Online" will be in public beta in two days. If you are bored at home, you can go play it. It's quite good. Not bad, almost no different from the original mc. ”
"Is that the game that made you a full ten million?"
Lu Xian asked curiously. He had seen various advertisements these days, but he couldn't make up his mind for the moment.
"Yes, I heard that after the open beta, gold coins can be exchanged for real money. One gold coin is worth one hundred real coins. Now many online game unions are recruiting offline gold miners. I heard that they can make money."
When he heard about money, Lu Xian frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
As long as it has a relationship with money, it will change.
As the earliest batch of veteran MC players, they have an extraordinary affection for MC.
In their eyes, MC is not just a game.
The emotional value and meaning it places on it cannot be compared to ordinary games.
Therefore, old players like them are somewhat resistant to "Minecraft Online", which is known as the latest sequel of MC.
Or, to be more precise, trepidation.
They are afraid that if this game is poorly made, or if it is just a new game with the MC name to make money, it will most likely destroy the last bit of nostalgia they have for MC.
This is the belief and sentiment of MC players. They would rather silently cherish the past than break this beautiful period with their own hands.
Sometimes, new does not mean good.
Many of the masterpieces in the gaming industry were destroyed by various poorly made sequels or remakes a long time later.
These game companies are targeting the pockets of these former old players, forcibly reheating old games and creating a wave of nostalgia.
They only have money and interests in their eyes, and they don’t care about the feelings of old players.
In the early stage, various vigorous publicity was made, saying that after playing this game, you can find your original intention back then, but in fact it is selling dog meat under the guise of sheep, using some inferior games to perfunctory old players.
This is a naked consumption of the sentiments of these old players, which is an extremely disgusting behavior.
To put it in an analogy, it is equivalent to you spending money to order a dish that you once liked the most, but the restaurant served you a plate of dog shit and lied to you that this thing is delicious, but you still ate it with great expectations...
Although this analogy is a bit disgusting, it is the truth. (The author specifically criticized the Warcraft 3 remake, the Diablo series, the Chinese Paladin series, and some mobile games adapted from classic anime IPs. They are simply unbearable to watch.)
"Okay, I'll go check it out first."
Although I'm a little worried, since my son strongly recommends it, I think it should be acceptable.
(Even if I'm bored to death, I won't touch the game "Minecraft Online"! Advance warning!)
