After finalizing the development plan for Xenoblade Chronicles, Chen Xu had plenty of work of his own to do.
For example, the music in the game. After all, the soundtrack from his previous life had been far too iconic.
Especially when Counterattack began to play—it was enough to give people goosebumps from sheer excitement.
There were also various system details, such as the Mercenary system. This system was essentially an idle minigame, mainly intended to help players build Bonds with their Blades.
Because every Blade in the game had different Bonds, and if players had to complete all of them manually, it would be an absolute nightmare.
So a special Blade named Seven Ice would be added to the game. Her mission duration could be reduced to an eight-minute cooldown, allowing players to quickly fulfill the Bond requirements of other Blades. It was commonly known as having Lady Seven Ice take the dogs out for a walk.
However, in the original version, players had to manually open the Mercenary Group menu, manually accept missions, and manually close it afterward. It was incredibly tedious.
So Chen Xu would make some special optimizations in this area, such as a loop mode.
After players set up their Mercenary lineup, missions could be completed and accepted automatically as long as they did not manually alter it.

And after purchasing those vouchers, what many players
