Crystal Plays Games
The paid cable channel thing is still nowhere in sight, but for Li Chen, it's still a good day.
Although he's been spending some of his time at the Hellfire Club these past few days, and also with the maids at home...
Now Nami is also wearing a maid outfit, but it's a bit too big to contain her ample bosom.
With three adorable little maids at home, and Psylocke, his pet who had already been trained, Li Chen naturally felt very attached to home.
The Hellfire Club, on the other hand, is the White Queen's temptation.
Although the diamond form was uncomfortable for them and not a pleasant experience, only Li Chen could do it, making it exclusive to him.
Getting back to the main topic, today is the release date of Bayonetta.
Following its pre-sale period, Bayonetta had already garnered over 200,000 pre-orders, and after its release today, it immediately climbed the Steam charts.
"We've already sold 250,000 copies, and we expect to reach 500,000 copies in the first week."
Polaris Lorna Dane has gotten somewhat used to this job.
She had never worked before, and hadn't even attended school for more than a few days, but she had a good ability to learn and absorb information.
Having such an attractive secretary would surely make Li Chen feel much happier.
Lorna Dane's green hair represents vitality and a vibrant, thriving world, making everything look much more pleasing to the eye.
"Not bad."
Li Chen didn't expect to get such good results.
In its previous life, Bayonetta sold over 2 million copies across all platforms.
On consoles, however, the game price is higher, so it's easy to recoup the cost.
The reason the Marvel Universe is so powerful is because Li Chen insisted on its release on PC.
Back in 2017, Bayonetta was released on PC, and it wasn't even translated into Chinese yet...
An eight-year-old game still sells like hotcakes on PC.
Now that it's directly synchronized to the PC version, it can be summed up in a few words: a game-changer.
Whether it's Bayonetta's figure and looks, or the combat feel of the game.
Both can be described as unparalleled.
Today is a good day.
Li Chen sang a song and, arm in arm with Lorna Dane, prepared to leave.
"Aren't we still on duty?"
Lorna Dane struggled slightly.
"As long as you have your job in your heart, you can work anywhere."
Li Chen replied, "We work the same way we do at the club."
"Oh, right, call Blink."
Fan Ye Bingbing has also been placed in the film crew to participate in the filming of "Lucy" as a minor supporting role.
She doesn't have many scenes, but let her accumulate some experience beforehand.
After all, there are plenty of Asian roles in Hollywood, so she won't lack work.
Moreover, Hollywood's approach has gone too far.
For example, they deliberately cast Black actors as leads, as if to tell the world that all Black men are ugly, stupid, and brainless...
Although it might be the truth.
There is also a set of deliberate discriminatory practices against Asians. For example, Asian girls are always portrayed as short, wearing silly glasses, and playing the role of the main character's sidekick.
Furthermore, the stereotype of being a good student is something Hollywood deliberately promotes.
It's like how they keep portraying squid as victims.
But in reality, they brought it all on themselves.
However, most people are completely unaware of these facts, so they are easily deceived by the values the movie tries to promote.
Li Chen naturally wanted to break this impression, otherwise it would be annoying to see all Asian characters as idiots.
But for now, let's have some fun.
On the streets of Los Angeles, Crystal, with her short orange hair, is heading purposefully towards an arcade.
After a period of preparation, she finally arrived on Earth from the moon.
Then of course we should have a good time!
She frequently visits Earth, and her favorite thing is human video games.
She especially loves fighting games; the visceral feeling of each punch landing is incredibly satisfying for her. Of course, she also enjoys fighting games.
So she went straight to the arcade, a huge mixed-use arcade, like a large supermarket, where products from various manufacturers were sold, and visitors could also experience and play games.
If people find it fun, most will buy it and play it at their leisure. If they really don't have the money, the manufacturers don't mind if they get it for free.
It's better to have some buzz here than to have nothing at all.
People have a herd mentality; for example, if a restaurant is packed, you'll subconsciously assume that the food must be delicious.
The same goes for games; with so many people playing, how could it not be fun?
As soon as Crystal entered, she saw several children gathered around the XBOX game console.
"What are you playing, little ones?"
Crystal's eyes lit up, and she immediately walked over.
Based on her experience, games that many people like are generally good.
Several children turned around, and upon seeing Crystal with her short orange hair and striking good looks, they, who hadn't intended to answer, spoke up, "Pretty sister, it's a new game."
"Let me see, what's it called?"
Crystal immediately moved closer, and the fragrance emanating from her made the children afraid to move.
Bayonetta!
The children said proudly.
However, after comparing them, they still felt that the 'Bayonetta' on the screen was cooler than this older sister.
Bayonetta exudes a mature and sophisticated aura in both her posture and figure.
It captivated several children, making them unable to stop.
Just like many people secretly watched "Cat's Eye" when they were young, liking beautiful women is a man's nature.
Bayonetta?
Crystal raised an eyebrow and began to read it seriously.
Several children were seen trying out the game, and Crystal's first impression was that the character models were exquisite.
Bayonetta's character model would still be competitive even a decade or more later, and it's absolutely dominant in this era.
She doesn't reject female protagonists; on the contrary, she finds it more enjoyable because it allows for a greater sense of immersion.
She couldn't enjoy games with male protagonists.
Then came the fight.
The game's story is simple: Bayonetta, a witch, kills so-called angels along the way.
"This is an angel? How can it be so ugly?"
Crystal was starting to break down.
If witches are beautiful, then angels are ugly.
These ugly angels instill in people a natural urge to defeat them, subconsciously leading them to believe that they are evil.
Otherwise, it's possible that some people might actually find it difficult to adapt.
People have an aesthetic sense; just like many people subconsciously believe that those who are beautiful are righteous...
Conversely, if someone is too ugly, they are born to be a villain.
This piqued Crystal's interest. If all so-called angels were such ugly creatures, then they certainly should be hunted.
It seems that Bayonetta is such a game.
She watched intently, then complained, "You're so bad at this, let me do it."
She snatched the controller from the child and started operating it herself.
The child looked aggrieved and almost burst into tears.
