93 – Nightfall DLC Public Broadcast, Reaction (1)

After Yuria succeeded in squeezing another woman, Yuria, and subduing her.

First of all, Eugene decided to end today’s broadcast at this point.

As far as Eugene knows, the boss of this DLC is none other than the Demon King, a being created using his battle data

And wasn’t Yuria the one the production team set up as the Demon King’s closest confidant and at the same time his most loyal subordinate his?

But now, after only one day of playing the game, Yuria, who can be considered the middle boss of the DLC, has been defeated.

And looking at that, the general director felt something ominous.

So, roughly speaking, the nightmare-like image of Eugene beating up bosses while ignoring all the gimmicks set up by the production team, like when playing the main game of Nightfall, is lingering in his mind.

I had an ominous feeling that if I left Eugene like this, I might clear all of Nightfall’s DLC in less than a day!

In the end, there was only one choice for the general director at this point.

“Everyone, I think we should end today’s broadcast at this point.”

– You’re finishing it already? I don’t think it’s been that long since the broadcast started?

– Look at how sharp Somajwa Bangjonggak is, really haha

– Will you do more broadcasts if I pay your friend fee? Please say yes… ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

– Wow… Tvui… I’m a babu babu guy so I don’t know difficult words… Just keep broadcasting…

– Wow… Ah… Wow…

– ㄴ Why is this way of speaking so popular these days? Crazy;;

– Just let the world end then haha

“Hmm… Actually, I would like to broadcast a little more, but today’s broadcast is not something I can do of my own choosing; it is a commercial broadcast requested by Powell Software. So, we ask for the viewers’ understanding.”< Br﹥

– Powell Software, then are we enemies?

– So, to sum it up in one line, this is all Hayao Misaka’s fault? Haha

– If you have already entrusted the broadcast to Somajwa, you should just turn it on and let it run. It cuts off like this in the middle. Ugh haha

“Then we will end today’s broadcast with this.” Next time, if possible, we will try to extend the broadcast time compared to today. Then, truba!”

Eugene, who ended the broadcast like that, came face to face again with the general director, who looked like he was reminded of something in real life.

“Uhm… First of all, thank you for your hard work on today’s broadcast. Indeed, it was a broadcast in itself worthy of the name and reputation of the Lord of the Swords.”

The general director who said that asked Eugene a question in a somewhat cautious tone.

“First of all, I’d like to ask you what impressions you got from playing the Nightfall DLC we produced, ‘Descent of the Demon King’. Did you enjoy playing it?”

“Yes. It was really fun, this DLC.”

And to the general director’s question, Eugene answered that question without any hesitation.

It was definitely as he said.

Eugene’s answer his just now was not simply a courtesy answer for a business partner, but words that came straight from the heart.

“Starting with the fact that the background of this DLC feels quite different from the background of the main game, and by introducing new monsters that did not appear in the main game, it feels fresh rather than stale. Overall, the main game of Nightfall I felt like I wasn’t that far behind compared to others.”

The general director shows a satisfied smile on his face as if he is truly satisfied with Eugene’s words his.

“It really puts my heart at ease when the Sword Lord says that. However, although our production team created the game, the person who truly completed this game is none other than the Sword Lord.”

“… Me?”

At such a remark from the general director, Eugene inadvertently tilted his head.

What on earth does this mean?

Is Eugene the person who truly completed this DLC?

“Swordlord, do you know what game developers like us are truly afraid of?”

“… Well, are they creating a shit game without even knowing it?”

The general director burst out laughing, perhaps because Eugene’s answer was funny.

Haha! That’s not entirely wrong. However, there’s something else we’re truly afraid of. That’s the game we put so much effort into being buried without a word.”

“… A game is buried without a word?”

Eugene didn’t really understand what the general director said.

That’s because Eugene heard from Winter and Sia that there were several games that became box office hits through word of mouth, even if sales weren’t that great at first.

“Well, there are certainly cases like that. But in most cases, the factor that determines a game’s sales is none other than marketing. No matter how great a game you make, if people don’t know about it, eventually sales will plummet I will throw it away.”

That’s why game companies tried to promote their games in any way by spending a large amount of money before officially releasing the game.

“Of course, if it’s a well-made game, it may spread through word of mouth and become a hit… But that’s only a what-if. In the end, we wanted to say that only when sales are large can the game we made be truly completed.”

And the general director who spoke up to this point smiled at the corner of his mouth.

“But from this moment on, we no longer need to worry about that, because the Sword Lord has done a really great job.”

“… ?”

“I just received specific materials from the previous headquarters. What significant changes occurred while the Sword Master was broadcasting this DLC experience?”

The general director lightly manipulated his smartphone and showed one piece of data to Eugene and Winter, who were standing next to him.

It was none other than a graph comparing the indicators before and after Eugene’s experience broadcast began.

“First of all, we confirmed that the search volume for ‘Nightfall’ and ‘DLC’ in Korea has increased by more than 50% since the broadcast of Lord of the Swords began. In addition, when Yuria appeared during the broadcast, the number of viewers instantly increased by more than 15%, and the search volume exploded by more than 120%.”

This is probably because viewers who were watching the broadcast posted posts about Yuria on the community site the moment another Yuria appeared.

Among viewers who watch Internet broadcasts, there are rare people who write comments on community sites while watching broadcasts.

“Also, it is said that the search volume has increased tremendously on community sites in Japan and North America… That is, sites such as 6ch and 5cham. So, roughly… About this much.”

Until then, it had maintained a gradual upward trend, but since Eugene’s broadcast began, the figure on the graph has skyrocketed to an almost vertical level!

The figures before and after Eugene’s broadcast began were literally the difference between heaven and earth.

“One reason people have become interested in this DLC is because of the Sword Lord’s play. The ridiculous super play that the Sword Master showed off just now has led to this current response. It would mean that it was paid out.”

Of course, this interest from people was sure to return in the form of game sales in the future after the DLC was officially announced.

Although Powell Software went through a lot of trouble, such as creating a difficulty level specifically for Eugene, for this broadcast, I am confident that I will endure that kind of hardship if I get a clear reward in this way!

“Oh, now that I think about it, I have something to say to the director regarding the difficulty of the DLC… “

“Is there anything you want to say to me? I will listen carefully to whatever the sword lord says.”

Seeing the general director answering so willingly, Eugene cautiously opened his mouth.

“What I’m saying is that because of this broadcast, many aspects, including the difficulty level of the DLC, were completely reorganized… “

Eugene ended up scratching his head in a truly embarrassed manner.

“I had no idea that Powell Software had prepared so much for this broadcast. If it was a game prepared for broadcast, it wouldn’t be usable for sale, but I think they are really being considerate of me. “I wanted to at At least say thank you.”

When Eugene lowered his head towards the general director, he looked blank for a moment and then burst into laughter.

“Ha, haha! Sword Lord, did you actually believe what I said earlier? It was just a comment for broadcast.”

“… Yes?”

The moment he heard those words, Eugene’s face changed into something strange.

So, just now, the general director was making a joke in front of all the viewers?

Did Eugene naively fall for those words and feel grateful to Powell Software?

“No, no. It is true that the production team reorganized the game to suit the level of the Sword Lord for this broadcast. However, the game was not completely reorganized just for this broadcast.”

The general director spoke with a sinister smile.

“Because, apart from the DLC, we also plan to sell this completely rebuilt version of the game.”

“… Yes?”

So, are there plans to sell a reconstructed version of the DLC that Eugene played earlier in the future?

‘Does that make sense?’

To be honest, the difficulty level of the previous DLC was such that even Eugene felt that it was a little too difficult, but can ordinary people play it?

Do you think it would be a good thing if the game starts freaking out less than 10 minutes later and doesn’t give you a refund?

“No, that’s not true. Because the current Sword Lord is beyond the level of a simple streamer.”

In the general director’s view, Eugene’s influence goes far beyond the level of celebrity and he is on the verge of stardom.

No, at least in the fields related to Powell Software, it is impossible to find anyone more famous than Eugene.

According to Powell Software’s analysis, many of the viewers who watched Eugene’s broadcast and those who pre-ordered the DLC wanted to be like Eugene, not the main character of the game.

In other words, just as people look at a brightly shining star and feel a sense of admiration, Eugene also became an object of people’s admiration.

And for those who regard Eugene as an object of admiration, the difficulty of the DLC is not such an important issue.

The only thing that matters to them is that they are playing a game with the ‘same’ level of difficulty as their idol, Eugene!

Therefore, Powell Software was confident.

The reconstructed version of the DLC they created this time exclusively for broadcasting is sure to sell like hot cakes!

‘My cross is nothing but faith and faith in the Lord of the Sword.’

In this way, the general director lost his strong faith in Eugene deep in his heart.

It was truly severe.
