Video Game Tycoon in Tokyo-Chapter 880: But the female characters are so attractive!
Chapter 880 - But the female characters are so attractive!
"Host, I'm about to unfollow, and I want to ask for my tips back from the platform."
"That's right, if you don't tell us how to buy it, I'm leaving this stream right now."
The host from [** country] turned a little pale when he saw these comments.
Clearly, he had spoken too soon. He hadn't fully gotten the viewers hooked yet, and he should have waited longer to let more people watch his stream before revealing the secret.
Now, he was in a tricky spot.
But at the moment, he didn't have many options. If he didn't reveal it soon, those people would really leave because they were angry, and the method to purchase the game wasn't that hard to figure out—he was just the first to find it.
"Well, actually, what I want to say is that you can buy the digital version of the game, and where you buy it doesn't really matter, right?"
"Digital version? Where can I buy it?"
"It's pretty simple, you probably haven't noticed before, but on Gamestar Electronic Entertainment's consoles, there's an option to change the game region. And it's not just on their consoles; on their Battle.net platform, there's also an option to change the country and region. You just need to click it, and you can easily switch your account to another country. That way, you can buy the game from another country, right?"
...
...
After saying this, the host felt a bit smug.
Clearly, many people didn't know this secret. By revealing it, he was gaining some attention.
And this secret wasn't something he discovered on his own.
It was actually shared with him by a mysterious viewer.
Of course, this mysterious viewer didn't just share this secret with this one host.
Several other popular streamers had also received this secret.
Their fans simply needed to click the option to switch regions on their account platform, and they could easily change their region.
This was what they called "game migration."
"I'm going to try it!"
"Me too!"
Immediately, a group of people in the comments section closed the stream and rushed off to try switching regions.
The host, seeing his viewer count drop quickly, turned even greener with envy...
His hype had just slipped away. A moment ago, there were nearly 2,000 viewers watching, but as soon as he revealed the secret, half of them left in the blink of an eye.
The remaining thousand viewers were also quickly leaving without hesitation.
But luckily, more people kept joining the stream, which gave him a little relief.
McGill had already left the stream and clicked into the Battle.net platform.
On the U.S. region of Battle.net, there was no sign of Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball—the top recommended game was the Resident Evil series, which was currently on sale at 89% off. The third installment of this horror game was quite unique in the genre.
He ignored the promotional games and went straight to the personal account options the host had mentioned.
In this section, whether intentionally or not, Gamestar Electronic Entertainment had made the account region adjustment option very noticeable, right next to the personal username.
Without hesitation, McGill clicked to adjust the region. A new pop-up window appeared quickly.
"Do you want to change your region?"
"Yes!"
"Based on your account information, you still have unused funds in your account. Once you change the region, these funds will be seamlessly converted to the local currency at the current international exchange rate. A small processing fee will be charged. Do you confirm?"
"Confirm!"
It was just a processing fee, no big deal—he was more eager to play Dead or Alive right now!
He couldn't wait to enter that world and play volleyball with the beautiful women... Oh, no, he meant to play volleyball with them. The romance part was just a bonus!
Yes, that's right.
"Please select the region you want to switch to."
"England."
McGill had always had a good impression of England, so he instinctively chose this country he liked.
Of course, the more important reason was that at least in this region, he could understand English. He wasn't sure if other regions would switch the language.
"Switching, please wait..."
"Congratulations, welcome to the England account region. Your account funds have been automatically converted to British pounds. Thank you for visiting."
"That was fast?" McGill was a little surprised.
It switched regions this quickly?
This game migration was far easier than actually immigrating.
Now, he was back on the main interface of Battle.net.
In the England region, the game promotions had changed on the homepage.
Most users in England preferred football games.
And naturally, Gamestar Electronic Entertainment's football league was the top-selling game in this region, constantly occupying the top recommendation spot so all users would see it first.
Of course, he wasn't here to look at that game.
This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.
He went straight to the search bar and typed in Dead or Alive's name. Soon, results appeared.
Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball.
Ah~
It really was Dead or Alive!
This cover, these women, this... absolute territory, this...
Slurp.
He subconsciously licked his lips.
He found it strange.
It was just a game.
And it probably wasn't even that fun.
But he couldn't help it. He really wanted to play it.
Maybe it was a reverse psychology thing—some people just want to play games that others are trying to stop them from playing.
That's probably it.
Price... 59 pounds...
That's... a bit expensive!
Converted to dollars, that's over $60.
But compared to those scalper prices, it was much cheaper.
So, without hesitation, he used the money in his account to buy the game.
No matter what, he just wanted to play it!
By the time he finished downloading the game, it was already evening. He couldn't wait any longer. The moment the game's main interface showed he could start playing, he clicked to enter.
The fresh beach scene, and... those youthful and beautiful female characters—this was heaven!
Originally, he had been a little concerned about the game's price.
But as soon as he saw the beautiful women in the game, he felt it was totally worth it.
Even though the game's graphics weren't top-tier.
But the female characters were gorgeous!
Even though the game had a few bugs right from the start.
But the female characters were gorgeous!
Even though the game had a prompt saying that unlocking more female outfits required extra payment.
But the female characters were gorgeous!
