Chapter 330
Leon pointed out the blind spot in Sui Xiong’s thoughts .
He had pursued immersion so much and finally designed a game that was amazingly rich and immersive in content, yet the graphics were a bit simplistic . Therefore, the game could be used to teach low-level adventurers or soldiers basic knowledge .
Just like on earth, driving games that pursued the extreme immersion could actually be used to popularize basic driving knowledge for those who knew nothing .
A qualified adventurer needed a lot of knowledge, and much of it had to be mastered by practice, but if it was just to be used for popularizing written knowledge, this game was enough .
So as Leon had said, this game was more than just a game . If he connected the physical attributes of the characters to the attributes of players, it could be used directly as a simple training material . With a few modifications, it would be easy to teach soldiers some common sense .
Sui Xiong hadn’t expected this before, so when Leon had pointed it out, he was a bit confused .
I’ve been working so hard for so long, testing for this long, and finally, I’ve launched an informative tool to lay the foundation for adventurers?
Therefore, Sui Xiong had a problem .
For personal reasons, he hated words like “edutainment . ” In his view, entertainment was entertainment and should only be used for people to relax, relieve stress, and receive spiritual satisfaction . That was enough . If education had to be added into entertainment, then it would be the same as adding odd-tasting beans into drinks, as bad as the legendary Laoshan Oldenlandia Water . There were people who liked it, but most people avoided it like the plague .
He thought about it for a long time, and finally sighed deeply, starting to modify the game .
Too much of the immersive content was deleted, too complicated content was deleted, and too difficult content was deleted . Finally, it became a simple and clear adventure game on a small scale .
In this game, a player still played as an adventurer, but all the actions were simplified into options, with no room for free play . They could only choose fixed locations in the town, and there were fixed instructions in every location, as well as in combat .

There were still a lot of instructions, so the game was generally rich in content, turning combinations into puzzles and battles, as well as a lot of monster and scene designs . However, in contrast to the original game, which had a high degree of freedom, extremely rich contents, and extremely strong immersion, there was a world of difference .
It took Sui Xiong a month to finish the modification process . After expending all of his efforts, he was a little worn out when he finally launched the new version of the game .
However, his hard work paid off . This new version of the game won the praise of all the players . As long as the player was literate, they would feel that the game was very interesting . The various tasks and adventures inside were imaginative, so they couldn’t stop . Someone had even “tested” it for more than 40 hours in one go and had eventually fallen asleep in front of the computer .
Sui Xiong laughed in his heart, but his face was serious on purpose, adding an anti-addiction setting to the game .
Every player could only play it for up to eight hours a day!
If this was on earth, people who dared to be make a game anti-addictive would most likely be killed by their peers in the industry, but they would be praised by related departments . However, in this world, there were no peers in the same industry who competed with him, nor any department above him to manage him . Therefore, he could design and operate in any form he wanted .
Since he was rich, his will could be done to the extreme . However, because the players had never touched other games before, they still didn’t understand how anti-traditional and crazy his non-addictive design was . Every one of them actually expressed support .
Upon seeing this situation, Sui Xiong couldn’t help but laugh into the air loudly several times, feeling so proud with the happiness that he was finally realizing his ideas that day .
But he was happy for only a few days before he began to get busy again .

Based on the player’s suggestions, he decided to develop a spoken version of the game—instead of dubbing the monsters, he added voices of various tips and introductions in the game .
There were so few people in the world who were literate . As a sincere game designer, Sui Xiong felt that it was necessary for people who were illiterate to enjoy the game he designed, as well .
Therefore, spoken prompts and introductions were necessary .
Fortunately, this didn’t take much effort . A few days later, he completed the voice system .
When the game that illiterate people could also enjoy began to be tested, it was amazingly unprecedented .
After several tests, the workers in the land and the nearby residents had already known of the existence of this wonderful game, but to most civilians, it was still far from them . Just the need for literacy was a huge threshold that made them unable to play .
In this world, the entertainment that illiterate civilians had access to was very limited . They couldn’t understand menus in the restaurants, nor signboards in pubs, and they couldn’t integrate into the atmosphere in the opera houses, so their social lives were extremely barren .
As a lower level in society, they didn’t have any opportunities . They could only live mechanically and simply every day, like a negligible gear in a huge machine that was society . Most of them couldn’t get satisfaction from manual labor, so their lives became more and more empty .
They needed entertainment!
And the spoken version of the “Great Adventure of Mount Snake-sky” launched by Sui Xiong met their requirements—simple content, complete voice guidance, and easy to operate, even if they were illiterate .
After the first tests, a few civilians quickly became addicted . Then the news spread unknowingly . There were more and more people who wanted to try the game . In the end, they even queued up for miles . If the land hadn’t had so many people to maintain the order well, they might have already started fighting .
Sui Xiong was shocked, so he hurriedly increased the number of computers . He made 200 computers in one breath, but still couldn’t meet the needs of the residents around the land .
“This is the f**king contradiction between backward productivity and the ever-growing material and spiritual needs of the people!” Looking at the long line on the ground under his feet, Sui Xiong, who was flying in the air, sighed deeply .
He had planned to add more computers, but after thinking about it, he felt that it wasn’t necessary .
The needs of the people were endless, unless he realized something that wasn’t possible on earth: one computer per person .
That was absolutely impossible . He didn’t have that much Divine Power to squander .
In light of this, he changed his mind and proposed a line for a registration system .
Everyone who wanted to experience the game could register in front of a special computer, then they would get a piece of crystal that had no other use but telling them at any time how long it was until their turn to attend the tests .
This simple and straightforward solution solved the problem of long lines, and players had taken their own crystals one after another . Those who needed to line up for a short time were still waiting, but those who needed to wait longer left by themselves to finish whatever they were supposed to be doing .
So the small storm came to a close at this point . Soon after, Sui Xiong was surprised to find that literate people in the territory had actually increased rapidly .
The reason was very simple . Even if it was the voice version of the game, there was text as well . In the game, many people had learned some words on the common menus through the connection of voice and text .
This had also been an unintentional move .
After finding out the cause, Sui Xiong couldn’t help but laugh .
For the first time in his life, he felt that “edutainment” was actually reasonable!
