GDYARVE Chapter 4: I Promise Not to Swear!
Chapter 4: I Promise Not to Swear!
In just one day, Ye Feng’s game soared to the top of the Yogame download charts.
Brother Yin's live stream played a huge role in reaching this position, with countless marketing accounts clipping his funny moments.
Short video platforms were flooded with clips of him gnashing his teeth and smashing his keyboard and mouse.
In just 30 seconds, the short video vividly portrayed a rational human transforming into a low-intelligence being.
Just watching the video, seeing the little guy in the pot fall, could give anyone a heart attack.
Maybe because Brother Yin's antics were so abstract and hilarious, the video even got pushed to some non-gamers’ phones.
‘So funny. I don’t play games, just a passerby. Honestly asking, is your gaming community this intense?’
‘Feels a bit scripted, like it’s just to promote the game?’
‘Honestly, it looks fun. The marketing is very successful. I want to try it.’
‘I’m a fan of Brother Yin. Let me tell you, maybe other streamers have scripts, but Yin Zi definitely doesn’t. I watched him break down live for four hours.’
‘Everyone should try it. It’s really very easy. Anyone who says it’s hard is just bad.’
……
There were so many videos of Brother Yin circulating online.
Four hours of gameplay, and every frame was comedy gold.
“Is his mouse hot? He just fell, does he really need to throw the mouse?” Sister Zhou watched a few classic funny clips sent by her fans.
Seeing the pot guy fall, Brother Yin threw his mouse, frantically clawing at his face, filled with panic.
“He’s so dramatic. Is it really that frustrating?”
“I have to say, the monkey knows how to make good content for his streams. It’s brilliant!” Sister Zhou bit her finger, eyes full of mischief as she watched the screen.
“I have to try this. I don’t believe it’s that frustrating.” Sister Zhou shook her head, occasionally giving a coquettish wiggle towards the camera.
‘Stop wiggling, you’re not half as good as Tree Treasure.’
‘You won’t attract a moderator like that. Give it up.’
‘Moderator: This doesn’t even look like borderline content?’
……
Sister Zhou ignored the chat. She was used to these kinds of comments, just harmless teasing from her fans.
With a ding, the game download completed.
“I don’t believe I’ll break!” Sister Zhou vowed before starting the game.
Half an hour into the game,
Sister Zhou’s sleek, smooth hair had turned frizzy, and she kept scratching her head while playing.
“I swear, what kind of person designs such a game? Don’t they need to see a psychiatrist?”
Another half hour passed,
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The entire stream screen shook like an earthquake, the sound of her pounding the desk was incessant.
‘Thanks to the designer, I haven’t seen Sister Zhou slam the table in ages! Childhood memories restored!’
‘I wish I were that table, 5555’
‘Just a passerby, is this an earthquake? The screen’s shaking so much!’
‘Sister Zhou, give up, the world outside is full of hammers.’
‘As expected of Sister Zhou, so bad at this game!’
……
With the final slam, her water cup next to the keyboard spilled, soaking the desk.
Normally, if water spilled, Sister Zhou would have cursed.
But this time, looking at the spilled water, a subtle smile appeared on her face.
“Oh no, the water spilled! My keyboard and mouse are wet, I can’t play anymore! I’m so sad!”
“It’s not that I don’t want to play, it’s really because my equipment got wet. You all saw it, I have to take my keyboard and mouse for repair. Only after they’re fixed can I continue.”
“This game is really easy. If it weren’t for my equipment getting wet, I’d have finished by now.”
……
At that moment, the chat was filled with question marks.
As soon as Sister Zhou exited the game, a message from the game platform popped up.
“You’ve been playing for a while, please give it a rating! Would you recommend it to your friends?” Sister Zhou read the platform’s prompt.
She immediately typed furiously, not at all like her equipment was damaged.
【This game is too easy, isn’t it just using your hands?】
After writing the review, Sister Zhou quickly shared the game with her little fan Bo Bo, her eyes gleaming with a mischievous smile.
“Bo Bo, I’m recommending you a game, go play it!”
After recommending the game, Sister Zhou felt refreshed. She finally understood how the entire comments section was filled with “very easy”.
Damn it, they’re all bad people!
Not a single kind soul.
Would a good person trick others into playing a game?
Well, in the gaming world, tricking isn’t the right term.
It’s just sharing the fun!
On the other side, Bo Bo was streaming. After receiving Sister Zhou’s message, she immediately raised her phone.
“Wow, Zhou Zhou sent me a WeChat!”
“She wants me to play a game called Getting Over It. Is it fun?” Bo Bo curiously opened the game platform. She had been sleeping before her stream and didn’t know what had happened earlier.
“Zhou Zhou really loves me! This game has amazing reviews!” Seeing the comments, Bo Bo was startled. It had been a long time since she saw a game with such high ratings.
Of course, the game had some bad reviews too.
The reason for the bad reviews was “very easy”, and the reason for the good reviews was also... “very easy”?
“The more like this, the more it proves this game is good!” Bo Bo excitedly chose to purchase. Ten bucks was nothing to her.
Just as she was about to start the game, she noticed her chat was all asking one question.
【Do you remember the promise you made three days ago?】
She frowned, thinking for two minutes, then remembered she made a pledge in front of her viewers three days ago.
Saying a swear word would cost her fifty bucks.
“I remember, fifty bucks per swear word, right?”
“No problem! I, Bo Bo, keep my promises. I haven’t sworn in three days.”
“If I swear, I’ll give my fans a fifty-dollar red envelope. I mean it!” Bo Bo raised her hand, looking defiant.
But before starting the game, she frowned occasionally.
Why did everyone suddenly remind her of this promise?
She felt something was off, but couldn’t pinpoint what.
Entering the game, seeing the little guy in the pot, she couldn’t help but laugh.
“How did they model the protagonist to look so stupid?”
