Game Removed from the Platform

With only three hours left before Omnipotent God was automatically removed from Infinite Platform.

Tang Yu received an email from Infinite Game Platform.

He could more or less guess what the email was about.

However, after opening it and reading its contents, Tang Yu was completely baffled.

Infinite Game Platform actually wanted to use the entire game company as a bargaining chip to exchange for a share of the profits from his game.

The email also included Infinite Games Company's annual financial report.

It listed everything in detail, from annual sales to company valuation... then compared those figures with the current exchange rate between Divine Power in Omnipotent God and real-world currency, hoping to get 2 billion Divine Power from Tang Yu.

After reading the email, Tang Yu stared blankly.

2 billion Divine Power?

Where was I supposed to get that from?

They might as well just come and rob me.

Clearly, Infinite Game Platform thought Divine Power was just a string of data. As the developer, Wonder Studio could create 2 billion Divine Power just by changing a line of code.

But in reality, even if the players mined every resource point on Dragon Scale Island until they were completely depleted, they might not produce 2 billion Divine Power.

Besides, he only took 30 percent of the Divine Power the players produced. He had no idea how long it would take him to earn 2 billion Divine Power.

Even if he really had 2 billion Divine Power,

using it for game updates, unsealing Gods' Inheritance, creating in-game events, and so on... every one of those was a better use of it than trading it for Infinite Game Platform.

What was Divine Power? It was the source of energy, hard currency in any world.

In a Tech World, it could serve as a super power source. In a cultivation world, it was purer than the highest-grade spiritual energy and better suited for cultivation. In a magic fantasy world, it could even condense into a super magic core, and so on...

After being converted by the Law of Unification, Divine Power became the most fundamental form of all energy. It was immensely valuable.

Cash, on the other hand, could only be used in the real world and had no real value in any meaningful sense.

Perhaps this deal was a loss for Infinite Platform, but to Tang Yu, it would make him look like an idiot.

Ever since he obtained God-Demon Space, Tang Yu's horizons had long since expanded beyond the mundane world.

As for real-world money, he only needed enough to get by.

If they couldn't solve the problem of the Boundless Realm's invasion, then no matter how much money they had, it would all vanish in the end, along with the entire real world.

Besides, this deal simply wasn't worth it.

After reading the email, Tang Yu rolled his eyes and couldn't even be bothered to reply.

Infinite Games Company.

After a board vote, Jiang Ming's proposal was unanimously approved.

They would use Infinite Games Company as a bargaining chip to trade with Wonder Studio for startup capital to help Infinite Company grow within Omnipotent God.

After sending the email, the company's senior executives waited quietly for a reply from Wonder Studio.

As far as they were concerned, the deal was already done.

Although Infinite Company had far less of a future than Omnipotent God and belonged to a sunset industry that would sooner or later become a stepping stone for Omnipotent God's development,

Infinite Game Platform was still the undisputed leader of the gaming industry.

Its channels, promotional reach, design capabilities, and more could all give Omnipotent God's development a significant boost.

And all they were asking for was 2 billion in-game currency. They were practically giving the company away.

Time ticked by.

With only half an hour left before Omnipotent God was automatically removed, they still hadn't received a reply from Wonder Studio.

At that moment, Infinite Company's senior executives were dumbfounded.

Seeing that time was running out, they grew anxious.

They wouldn't take a free bargain? Had they not seen the email, or had the person in charge at Wonder Studio lost his mind?

With only ten minutes left, Fang Chong decided to send another email.

But even after Omnipotent God was removed, he still received no reply.

Ten minutes earlier.

All the players currently in the game heard the game notification sound several times in their minds.

[Game Notification: Omnipotent God has been removed from Infinite Game Platform. Please go to "Omnipotent God Platform" to download the game again. The login portal on Infinite Game Platform will close in 10 minutes!]

[Game Notification: Omnipotent God has been removed from Infinite Game Platform. Please go to "Omnipotent God Platform" to download the game again. The login portal on Infinite Game Platform will close in 10 minutes!]

The players who received the notification were all confused.

Soon, the discussion boards were full of players speculating and debating about Omnipotent God switching platforms.

"Holy crap, Omnipotent God switched game platforms? Anyone know what's going on? Did something big happen?"

"Waaah, I was just about to uncover that Level 2 ore vein, but there wasn't enough time and I got kicked out! I'll download the game from the new platform first and get back to mining, then I'll ask what happened!"

"No way, Omnipotent God got removed from Infinite Game Platform? Did Wonder Studio get bullied by the platform's unfair contract terms?"

"I'm off to download Omnipotent God Platform. I love Omnipotent God!"

The news of Omnipotent God being removed from the platform sparked widespread discussion among players.

Players came up with all sorts of theories about why Omnipotent God had left Infinite Game Platform.

Among them, the speculation post by "Don't Touch Me" caused a stir among many devoted Omnipotent God players.

[Omnipotent God Removed from Infinite Game Platform: My Theory]

Posted by: Don't Touch Me

Content:

I was playing when I received the news that Omnipotent God had been removed, and I was just as confused as everyone else.

As for why Omnipotent God was removed from Infinite Game Platform, I think there might be a few possible reasons.

(The following is just my personal speculation. Take it with a grain of salt.)

Reason One: The number of Omnipotent God players has grown dramatically recently, but the game is still free to play. This has inevitably cost Infinite Game Platform revenue from in-game purchases. The platform's player base is basically stable, after all, and it wouldn't want a large number of players flocking to a free game. So it kicked the free-to-play Omnipotent God off the platform.

Reason Two: Infinite Game Platform wanted to acquire Omnipotent God, but negotiations fell through.

The potential of Omnipotent God is obvious. It's absolutely a product of a new era, a game capable of overturning the entire gaming industry.

As the industry's leader, Infinite Game Platform must have recognized Omnipotent God's potential. It may have tried to pressure and entice Wonder Studio into selling the game so it could secure its position at the top of the industry. But Wonder Studio wouldn't play along, and negotiations eventually fell apart, forcing the studio to remove Omnipotent God from the platform.

Reason Three,...

In player "Don't Touch Me's" analysis post,

Wonder Studio was portrayed as a victim, while Infinite Game Platform was depicted as using its monopoly to suppress Wonder Studio in every way, until the studio was finally forced to leave.

After reading player "Don't Touch Me's" analysis, Omnipotent God players were furious.

Soon, the major gaming alliances, clubs, and guilds on the discussion boards joined forces to call on all players to declare war on Infinite Game Platform.

An unprecedented upheaval, the first since the platform's founding, was about to begin.
