Game Ratings and Player Discussions

A good day started in the morning.

At six in the morning, Tang Yu woke from his sleep.

After getting up and washing, he had a simple breakfast, then headed to his study.

Sitting in front of the virtual screen, he brought up the virtual keyboard and entered his password. The virtual desktop appeared.

Then Tang Yu logged into his Infinite Game Platform account and began checking the game's backend data.

It had been three days since Omnipotent God was released. With no promotion whatsoever, the game had now been downloaded 118 times, had around 95 players online at any given time, and had an unbelievable uninstall rate of 0%.

It was fair to say that every player who had downloaded Omnipotent God had become a loyal fan after experiencing the game.

For a game studio with no reputation to speak of, these results were already something to be proud of.

But Tang Yu wasn't satisfied.

He intended this game for all of humanity, so naturally, he hoped to attract as many players as possible.

With only a few hundred players, there was no way they could stand against the major factions and powerful native creatures of the Boundless Realm.

So, to Tang Yu, these results were only the beginning.

He opened the game details page and scrolled down to the ratings section.

Many players had already submitted ratings.

Without exception, every one of them had given the game a perfect five stars.

Five stars: 100% (89 people)

Four stars: 0% (0 people)

Three stars: 0% (0 people)

Two stars: 0% (0 people)

One star: 0% (0 people)

"After all these years, I've finally found the game I've been waiting for! Before it gets popular, I'd better claim the top spot in the comments. Here's a five-star review! (Rating: five stars)"

"The game is great, but why is there a Resurrection Cooldown after death? Even troops need to wait for their Resurrection Cooldown after they die. Can you just let me play in peace? Is this some kind of hunger marketing, getting us excited but not giving us enough fun? Still, the game is so well made that I have to give it a good review. (Rating: five stars)"

"You start with a pickaxe and have to dig for all your resources. This is just the kind of base-building, farming, and development game I like. It's a bit like Warcraft III, StarCraft, Warhammer, Red Alert... that sort of game, but with richer content. Add the immersive experience of a hundred percent realism, and the gameplay is fantastic. I'm looking forward to future updates. Also, my prediction: this game is definitely going to be a hit. (Rating: five stars)"

After checking the ratings, Tang Yu opened the game discussion board below.

Although Omnipotent God had only a little over a hundred players at this stage, the discussion board was lively.

Many players had gathered there to post and discuss the game.

By the way, a warning to anyone thinking of playing this game: don't die easily. There's a three-hour Resurrection Cooldown after death, and troops have to wait twelve hours to respawn. If you want to revive them early, you have to spend Divine Power (Note: Divine Power is the in-game currency. You can get it by selling resources to the Game Store; it can't be purchased with real money). So, in the early game, save your Divine Power for creating troops. Don't waste it on reviving them!

Death Like the Wind: Thanks for the heads-up, poster. I'll head back into the mine and grind after dinner. I want to assemble a hundred-man army as soon as possible. Let's go!

Not a Chance: Thanks, poster. In that case, I'll just mine White Condensation Stone near the entrance for now. No more taking risks!

I Don't Need Love: This game is seriously addictive, and the anticipation is killing me. The early game is pretty tough, though. What's worse, I looked everywhere and couldn't find a way to pay for anything, so I can't speed through the game. It's so frustrating. I hope they add in-game purchases soon.

[Choosing among the three starting Divine Realms: here's a guide for everyone!] Poster: Don't Touch Me

Post:

A friend recommended this game to me, and once I tried it, I got completely hooked. As a bit of a completionist, I naturally had to study the game's content and rules carefully.

The first thing I looked into was the three Divine Realms you could choose at the start.

Five of us were playing together, and we'd each picked one of the three starting Divine Realms. So I've tried all three, and I've also discussed them with my friends.

For anyone who hasn't tried the game yet, here's a quick rundown of how the three starting Divine Realms differ.

First, let's talk about the Undead Divine Domain, which I chose.

The Undead Divine Domain has very clear strengths and weaknesses. Its summoned Undead Type troops don't get tired while mining or working. They don't need rest or food, so they're basically perpetual-motion mining machines. They're very useful. The downside is that the troops you can summon early on have the lowest combat power, and their mining efficiency is also the worst. (I haven't saved up enough Divine Power to summon the later troops yet, so I'm only comparing the two lowest-level troop types.)

Next, there's the Blood Divine Domain, which my best friend picked. Its troops are strong and have high stamina, so they're very efficient at mining. Among the three Divine Realms, they have the highest combat power at the start. The downside is that they consume a lot. After about six hours of mining, they need to go find food or they'll become hungry, which lowers their mining efficiency. At least they aren't picky eaters and can eat anything.

Suggestion: If you pick the Blood Divine Domain, keep plenty of food in your inventory. The plants growing all over the island are edible, and if nothing else, you can even eat tree bark.

Finally, there's the Winter Divine Domain.

The troops produced by the Winter Divine Domain have high stamina and can mine for a long time, while still being fairly efficient. Their performance is between that of the Blood Divine Domain and the Undead Divine Domain, and they consume less food while working than the Blood Divine Domain's troops. At this stage, the Winter Divine Domain's troops don't really stand out, so I'd tentatively rank it last.

Five Tiger Generals: Thanks for the guide, poster! The Blood Divine Domain really is the best fit for me. Glad I picked it! (beaming.jpg)

Winter War God: What do you know? The Winter Divine Domain is the best of the three. Don't believe me? Here's a screenshot I took from the Divine Domain Shop! (slams table.jpg)

So Handsome I Don't Need to Wash My Face replies to Winter War God: Holy crap, those legs, that figure, that face... Thank goodness I picked the Winter Divine Domain. The future suddenly looks bright! Don't stop me, I'm going mining!

Ephemeral Blossom replies to Winter War God: After seeing that picture, my Blood Divine Domain suddenly doesn't seem so appealing. Damn it, all the creatures I summon have red skin. They're ugly as hell and they hurt my eyes!

Farmer's Three Punches replies to Winter War God: Bro, when you have enough Divine Power to summon an Ice Maiden, could you lend her to me for a few days? Thanks in advance! (nosebleed.jpg)

I Am Pure of Heart and Free of Desire: Heh—ptoo! You bunch of horny old men. When I can summon a Nether Dragon, I'll spit on a hundred Ice Maidens at once and show you that strength is what matters.

As Tang Yu read through the players' comments, he couldn't help chuckling.

Just then, a message from the God-Demon Space appeared in his mind.

[Notice: A large number of players have died in a short period of time!]

Thinking something had happened, Tang Yu immediately sent his consciousness into the God-Demon Space. His gaze passed through the space and landed on the area where the players had gathered, and he began observing the situation.
