Chapter 21 – Amazing!
Glen used the counter's computer to surf the internet. He read the new pinned post by the developer.
[A New Update For Beast Life] was the title of the post.
[Hello everyone, we are the developers of Beast Life. Thank you to everyone for playing our game and supporting us. We heard loud and clear about the complaints and immediately made this update. I thank you all for telling us about this. We apologize for the mistake and we thank you all again.
Also, we are releasing a new support app for Beast Life to help with other complaints made by many players. Click on this link to find out more about the app. [Link]
Thank you.] This was the summary of the post.
The developer wrote a long post explaining what the update was for and many more. The update was to fix the HP and AP. The developer heard it loud and clear and fixed it immediately.
The HP for the pet beast would be five times the points distributed to them. However, the wild beast would have seven times of their HP. They did this to make the wild beast stronger and make it harder for the players to defeat it.
Other than that, Energy was updated too. The developer made it that the pet beast and wild beast would have three times their original Energy.
They did not increase it to five times or seven times similar to the HP because they did not want the players to spam the skill. They also did not want the wild beast to be reliant on their skills too.
With this limit to their Energy, they would fight strategically. Still, three times was more than enough to execute a lot of skills.
As they fixed the HP and Energy, they also fixed the Advancement Point (AP). Now, if the players defeated a wild beast of the same rank, they would receive the original amount of AP based on their beast's talent.
If the wild beast was a rank lower than their beast, they would receive only 40% of the original AP.
If the wild beast was two ranks lower than their beast, they would receive only 10% of the original AP.
If the wild beast was three or more ranks lower than their beast, they would not receive any AP. They would receive the drop as usual but no AP.
Also, if the players managed to defeat the wild beast with a rank higher than their beast, they would receive 40% more of the AP and the next would be 100% more and the AP percentage they gained would keep doubling.
Still, theoretically, it would be hard to defeat beasts of higher rank. Be that as it may, the developer prepared for it because they did not know what would happen in the game since everything was computer generated.
[Nice! Now I am more pumped up to play this game! My pet and I will not get knocked out after one hit!!!]
[I can strategize more while fighting and I will have more time to escape from danger! Good job developer!]
[Hahaha! With this, there will be no player who will be too strong in the game!]
[Still, those that manage to exploit the loophole before are now at the top of the game. We need to work hard to catch up to them]
[Thank you!]
[I love you!]
[Marry me!]
[Above me… what?!]
After the post was made by the developer, the fans commented on it non-stop. In a minute, thousands of comments were made on the post.
Furthermore, immediately after the post, a new trending topic climbed to the top in social media, and this topic was not related to the fix but the new app launched by the developer.
The developer did not explain about the app in the post but asked the fan to click on the link. This looked like a scam but it was the developer who wrote the post, so it was impossible for it to be a scam.
Glen clicked on the link and immediately after that, he was redirected to the no 1 popular video hosting site, MooTube. The iconic logo of a cute white with black spot cow appeared on the screen.
After that, a video appeared. Glen looked at the views and it had reached a million in a minute after uploading. The likes were in the tens of thousands while the dislikes were less than a hundred.
'The views and likes are insane!' Glen gasped in surprise. He wondered what the content was that made the views shot up like that. Not only that but the viewers loved the content too based on the likes and dislikes ratio.
Glen played the video and a handsome young man opened his comm bracelet and downloaded the new Beast Life app.
Glen recognized the young man immediately because he was the currently worldwide super popular actor, Freddy Heirden. At the age of 28, all the films and dramas he was in were at the box office and critically acclaimed by fans and critics.
It was not a surprise for a big game like this to use popular celebrities like Freddy. After Freddy downloaded the app, he transferred something to the app and a picture of a Blue Lizard appeared on the app.
Then, he connected the app to a device and suddenly, the BGM started playing. It was an upbeat BGM and in the video, the Blue Lizard suddenly materialized in front of Freddy.
Freddy was smiling while the Blue Lizard was excited to see him. It also was curious about its surroundings. However, it ran to Freddy and nudged him on his leg.
Then, the same scene appeared but with different celebrities and pet beasts. All of them materialized in the real world and interacted with their tamer.
[We are tamers in both worlds!]
(Author's note: I am not that good at making a catchy sentence for this type of thing. If you guys have any idea, do leave a comment)
Glen's eyes were glittering with stars. He knew what this was all about. After that, the video switched to the developer presenting what was happening.
After listening to the developer, Glen understood everything and he realized why the views and likes shot up like that.
In a simple explanation, the app lets the players connect to the game. After that, they could transfer their pet beasts to the app and with the hologram device, they could materialize their pet beasts in the real world!
It was an amazing thing to do on their part. Although the pet beasts were only a hologram, they retained their personality and acted the same as in the game.
Moreover, they did this to give the players an easy time to take care of their beasts. When they left the game, the time in the game moved too fast and it was hard to feed their pet beasts.
However, with this app, they could take care of them like real pets and the beast could also interact with them in the real world.
This was an amazing feature and Glen loved it a lot. He might not be able to touch Bubbly but it was better than nothing.
"I want to take Bubbly right now!" Glen was excited. He gave the video a like and wanted to enter the game to bring Bubbly to the real world!
thank you~
If this happens in real life especially for pokemon, I will immediately play the game :P
