The Zai Zong was stunned in front of the screen.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

They all expressed regret over the man and woman in the trailer, saying it was a pity.

Meanwhile, the Zai Zong roared out loud.

"I've been proven wrong!"

"Holy crap, I've been proven wrong again!"

"I thought these two were the main characters in the game. I was just wondering if their escape was the main storyline, and then they died!?"

"Holy crap, if these two aren't the main characters, why is the trailer focusing on them?"

The live stream chat responded to the question of Zai Zong being proven wrong.

"This should be the main character, it's just that the trailer spoiled the ending."

"Give me a break. If these two are the main characters in the trailer, I'll eat the screen right now."

"I also think they shouldn't be the main characters. The trailer killed off these two, so when we play the game, we'll already know the ending, right? The production team probably wouldn't do that."

"The trailer only features them, not the main characters? No, these two should be the main characters. Judging from the trailer, they seem to have gone through a lot from meeting to death. Isn't that the treatment of main characters?"

"If the developers dare to kill off the main character, do you believe the players will refuse to buy it?!"

"Are you a casual gamer? Do you think the Only Game has a good ending? Apart from 21 Points, which protagonist survives? They all die, okay?"

"I don't care about the ending, I just want to play now!"

Just as the comments section was filled with heated debate, the trailer suddenly caught everyone's attention.

Above, a line of text appeared, announcing the game's release date.

The players stared intently, their eyes widening in disbelief! Holy crap? It was...

Two weeks later!

The game "Control Failure" will be released worldwide in two weeks!

The game will be available on both the Cyber Platform and the IGame Platform. It has already been submitted to various organizations for evaluation, so we hope players will wait patiently.

But

Two weeks!

this.

That's way too short and too fast!

They even thoughtfully said to 'wait patiently'.

Keep in mind that waiting only two weeks after the trailer is already incredibly generous!

How many games release trailers only to have no further news for a year or two?

How many games have released trailers only to flop immediately?

Although I know that Only Game releases a trailer, it means the game's release is just around the corner.

But the fact that players could play "Control Failure" after only two weeks still left them feeling incredulous and excited.

The video was viewed by over a million people the following day.

And in the Fourth Calamity Club, players still talk about it with great interest.

The forum was filled with numerous posts on related topics.

One of the posts, "[How to evaluate the various anomalies in the trailer?] ", received explosive popularity.

The various replies all expressed the players' joy and anticipation.

"Putting everything else aside, that humanoid statue at the beginning was incredibly awesome! I watched the trailer over and over again, and even downloaded it and played it frame by frame in slow motion in the app, and I still don't know how it attacked. People died in an instant, it was really powerful!"

"Actually, that statue should be W-FBC-0173. In the trailer, there was a cracking sound when it moved. And in the true ending of Skyhill, the protagonist also heard cracking sounds when he was dying in front of 0173's door. It's so obvious!"

"Holy crap, the mysterious W-FBC-0173 is that humanoid statue? To be honest, I'm a bit shocked. I thought it would be some kind of terrifying monster, but it's just a hard statue! It's a pity the trailer didn't show its face, so I don't know what it looks like."

"I'm very curious about what those two camera lights are for, what the three men and one woman inside are trying to express, is it just an inappropriate performance for children? Don't they have any other methods of attack? Will the three demon projections inside walk out of the backdrop?"

"That crystal can definitely be used as a weapon! The guy in the trailer turned into crystal the moment he touched it. That's it! I've got it! If guns are useless against statues, could this crystal crystallize them?"

"I agree with the comment above; we should use exceptions to defeat exceptions."

"That bell that summons the butler is also very useful. It can be used to draw fire or to scout ahead. I think the two in the trailer escaped because the butler attracted the rotting corpses."

"Holy crap, don't even mention those rotting corpses! They're so damn horrifying and creepy! I didn't sleep well at all last night; I was woken up by every little noise."

"Those corpses were truly gruesome. They were rotten, yet somehow they could still move, and their attack method was disgusting—they were eating."

"Has no one discussed the Little Boy's voice that said 'Happy Birthday'? There's only one D-Class Personnel in that cell. How could he make Little Boy's voice? Sing an English version of 'Happy Birthday' in a riot-stricken facility? There must be something going on inside!"

"What I'm more curious about is that pool of black water at the end of the trailer, numbered A-FBC-0106. I wonder if it has any other abilities besides dragging people into it. Will the monster inside come out of the black water?"

"Please release the game quickly! Please release the game quickly! Two weeks is too long, I can't wait!"

"I'm also suffering from electronic erectile dysfunction."

"***You're always giving feedback, do you think the forum members are all judges?"

At this time, in the club forum, besides those discussing the trailer, there were also those concerned about the Control Bureau.

For example, a post titled "[The new game is FBC Control Bureau's home ground, do you remember what kind of the Control Bureau is?] " is also very popular.

The replies inside were quite lively.

"Finally! I've been waiting for this forever! I've been eagerly anticipating finding out what this Control Bureau is all about. Now the production team has finally granted my wish! I'm a die-hard fan now!"

"Based on the four games we know so far, the Control Bureau gives the impression of being a military organization that disregards life. After all, using people for experiments is just too despicable! The soldiers in the trailer are even killing people indiscriminately with guns."

"I disagree. If the Control Bureau were really that evil, why did they send people in to investigate and seal off the Staircase when W-FBC-0087 appeared? Besides, judging from the trailer, they also controlled a lot of anomalies. Isn't that like putting a bomb in their own house? What benefits would make them willingly do that?"

"Stop washing upstairs, go check who went into the Staircase. A demoted PhD student and a 23-year-old girl. They really have no regard for human life!"

"When I played Horror Games before, I felt that the Control Bureau was mysterious and unpredictable, but after watching the trailer, I feel that the Control Bureau seems to be quite ordinary. They just collected a lot of anomalies that humans cannot understand. Otherwise, as you can see in the trailer, when the anomalies break through controllable, they are helpless and even shooting is useless."

"Whether the Control Bureau is good or bad doesn't matter; we'll find out when the game is released. The previous games have built up so much hype; now we can finally see what's going on inside the Control Bureau!"

The forum discussion continued in earnest from then on.

Although the price of the game has not been announced, players speculate that it will be similar to that of Skyhill.

That is, it costs around 300 yuan.

However, the price is justified by the quality of the game.

Skyhill's hundreds of hours of gameplay have thrilled many players, but have also instilled fear in them both physically and mentally.

More importantly, this is a VR Game!

Such a high-quality, long-running game gives players no reason to worry about the quality of Control Failure.

After all, even Skyhill, which is a 'spin-off game', has a playthrough of hundreds of hours.

Then how could the officially touted "large-scale game" "Control Failure" be short?

More than 300 yuan?

It was worth it!

So, while players were both looking forward to it and waiting anxiously...

Media reviews and overall scores for "Control Failure" were released globally at 7 p. m. a week later!

I've been too busy, sorry!
