1.

The 2010 was the era of smartphones. Smartphones have changed people’s lives.

But the world was unsatisfied there, and thanks to it, humanity moved beyond the age of smartphones to the age of virtual reality in the 2030s. Especially pitch.

Now the era has come when you can enjoy virtual reality at a low cost of $20,000 in a normal household.

The age of virtual reality was more remarkable than the age of smartphones. Virtual reality did not stop at the level of absorbing the content of reality. Various content has been developed that can only be enjoyed in virtual reality.

Among other things, virtual reality games were most popular enough to be called the flowers of the era of virtual reality.

In the first place, the gaming industry dreamed of an era of virtual reality and made a lot of investments and preparations, and they began to bring quality content to the world more than ever before.

It was also the beginning of war.

Whether it was thanks to a lot of investment or a long time of preparation, similar levels of games appeared on the market, and no one could easily get out.

The beginning of the Chuncheongwon-era.

In order to somehow increase its share, all the games began to use a desperate method. There were few cases where a giant gaming company was slamming in front of a crowd of strikes. The end of that dreadful era was not, ridiculously, a professional game developer, but a player who was famous for his AI programming.

It was a game made by Tobot Soft, Warlord.

Warlord.

The features of the game itself were not significantly different from those of traditional games. It had a medieval fantasy world view. There was no characteristic that war games in space could only be shown as virtual reality games, like games that fly in the sky, rather than two legs from start to finish.

Instead, the scale and stability of the game were unmatched.

The secret was not only management but also artificial intelligence programming technology called M.I.

Simply put, it starts with game creation and dedicates parts like game management to artificial intelligence, not personnel. The initial cost is huge, but instead the cost of running the game is dramatically reduced, and as the ransom of virtual reality game programmers soars to the realm of heaven,

It was the most obvious alternative. AI doesn’t negotiate salaries.

In addition, the number of artificial intelligence could be replicated and manipulated. It took at least six months to hire 1,000 professional programmers, but less than a month to acquire artificial intelligence.

The presence of an enormous scale of servers and the myriad of artificial intelligence that manages and operates those servers created a game that transcended the game, and Warlord was stunned by it.

On March 11, 2035, one million people created a character one year after the full service of the game began, and by the end of the fourth year of service, the number of character registrants had surpassed 10 million, making it the best game on the market. And even that number over and over again, it keeps growing and growing, and it’s not diminishing.

There was.

Ten million was not a small number.

A virtual reality device is needed to enjoy a virtual reality game. The cheapest Level 1 product is $20,000 for the pitch company VGear, which occupies 70 percent of the market.

The cost of creating a Warlord Character here is $2,599 and creating a Character here is free for 3 months, but after that you will pay a monthly fee of $799.

Based on South Korea, you buy over 20 million won gaming machines, pay close to 3 million won to create in-game characters, and play games for over 800,000 won each month.

More than 10 million people with that income and purchasing power?

An economist told me about this.

“If we were to calculate the average income of users who enjoy Warlords, we would probably get more than $80,000. With an average income of $80,000, the purchasing power of the market, which is also a common theme of gaming, is unquestionable in a country. ”

Companies that smell money like ghosts could not have known this.

Many companies were sponsors of those with awareness and influence at Warlord. Famous rankers, especially the top 100 in which the ranking is officially published, were walking billboards, and their body’s worth was at least one billion won.

Furthermore, Warlord had fun watching.

The process of hunting giant monsters with superhuman abilities using all kinds of magic and skills was more intense than any movie, and the world, which could die at any time, was more tense than any sport.

One official said:

“The biggest hit by the virtual reality gaming industry will be not only the professional sport and film industries. No matter how much the sport is thrilled, it does not fight with its life. But in the game, everyone fights with their lives. And no matter how cool a movie is, it’s just a movie.

is. The movie is set above the scenario, and the game is made in play. The game is just life itself. And there are no movies in this world that win life. ”

Now that 10 million users have created more film-like scenes than films in real time, it was natural for more than 100 million viewers to enjoy watching Warlord.

The fact that you play well is that there is an era when you get as rich and honored as the world’s leading football player and as a major league star. Of course, everyone wanted to be the protagonist of this era.

But!

“Famous for the game? That’s one in a thousand. Now that there are fewer than 3,000 people earning more than KRW 100 million as Warlords, try catching 3,000 of them. How much money do you need to spend in the top percent? That’s not all.

To keep it, you have to spend that much money. Of the 100 million won users, there are more people who spend 100 million won on games than there are people who don’t. ”

There were only a few people in Segan who could be the owner of the rose.

“And virtual reality games are not what you used to play on a PC. Dying isn’t about leveling up. A gifted man can’t follow a gifted man even if he dies. Become a ranker with levels and items because it is an RPG genre? I assure you, if you start a Warlord with that idea, maybe one.

I’m not going to the moon, so I’m going to fold the game. Just enjoy it pure. Warlord is the most unfair game in the world. Compared to the rest of us, we can’t play games with inferiority. ”

Once a virtual reality game itself was more unfair than any game.

Even PC games with a keyboard and mouse are dramatically different from those with a cormorant and sewage. In a space called virtual reality, there can be no difference between users playing with superhuman flesh.

It wasn’t the only one.

The surest way to make money with a game is live.

However, there were only 30 places where Warlord could be assigned live broadcasting rights and channels. The devastation caused by private broadcasting, such as selectivity, gambling, and swearing, has surged in the past, and most countries have used private broadcasting as a government permit to prevent that devastation.

In the case of Warlords, only 30 channels were assigned. To put it simply, there were only 30 places available for private broadcasting.

The 30-year-old guild was born that way. Guilds who secured a live broadcast channel were treated as more than a guild.

Furthermore, after earning massive funding and awareness through live broadcasts and live ticket revenues, they used that funding and awareness to stop the challenges of the latter. At first, everyone dreamed of reaching the 30s, but the gap between the 30s and the ones that didn’t.

It just happened, it wasn’t narrow.

Their own league.

When Warlord’s service broke into the car four years ago, this wall no longer seemed to break down.

However, there was a guild that almost broke the wall.

Hajeetal Guild.

Having a concept that is not really funny when everyone goes into combat, they begin to see more of the thirties’ guilds’ abilities and results, despite the fact that most guildmen started the game about a year later than their traditional rankers.

At the heart of that storm was Hirkan.

Nickname is Hero Slayer.

It was a nickname for killing the rankers who represent Warlord.

He was a monster beyond imagination.

“Hirkan? He’s a real monster. It’s not a metaphor, he disrupts the ecosystem, he throws a 150-kilometre straight line, he throws a 250-kilometre straight line on a baseball bat. He doesn’t even play the game harder than anyone else. It’s called a virtual reality game. Oh, man.

You can’t beat a gifted man if you spend a lot of time, and a gifted man can spend time making something, but it’s useless in front of a talent that surpasses it. Hirkan, I assure you, is the culmination of talent and effort. He’s only a year early.

If he did, he might be the strongest of the Warlords. ”

Ecosystem disruption.

The expression was accurate.

And that was also why Hirkan was rejected.

“Why did the Hashtal Guild betray Hirkan? Otherwise, the rest of the 30s would have been excluded from the guild. At first, there was a Hirkan recruitment war, but Hirkan wasn’t the one who went under and bowed his head. Even if the bum can grow up feeding on the dog, the bum is the bum, and the dog is the dog.

You know what? ”

The guild in its thirties was already earning huge profits in the built ecosystem.

Then they did not want to take all of this that they enjoyed, a monster beyond the horizon of the ridiculous Hirkan. They even tried to defeat a monster called Hirkan, but they were overturned.

Hirkan, his nickname Hero Butcher was horrible, but Hirkan himself had never stepped up and committed butchery. Three or four rankers always hit him, and he only fought back. Hirkan, I never wanted to be a butcher myself.

Because of this, the 30-year-old guild promised full cooperation when the Urehunter absorbed the Hajj Tal Guild and decided to deal with Hirkan. At the same time, that was the reason for betrayal.

“The Hajj Tal Guild is grateful to Hirkan, but on the contrary, he doesn’t deserve it. Above all, betraying the Hircans and being a member of the Ure Hunter Guild, and holding the Hircans in their arms and having an all-out war with the 30-year-old Guild, was almost an option. ”

No matter how great Hirkan was, he could not win against the implicit collaboration of the 30-year-old guild.

“After all, Hirkan was so great. That’s why he was betrayed by Warlord. ”

In so doing, Hirkan and An-rereproduction were forced to fold the game, being excluded from the world of Warlords.

Of course, all of this is happening right now.

“Living like this, it’s coming. ”

It became a story that did not exist.

“Past regression….. ”

Anjae-hyun, he returned to 2036.

With all the memories!
