The initial battle ended in triumph.
In the "Mirror World Story" project team's office, Gong Feng and his employees cheered and celebrated their success.
Fei Zhiyuan announced on the spot in the "Mirror World Story" project team's official group chat —
"Everyone gets a bonus, to be issued along with next month's salary!"
The group chat immediately replied in unison, like roll call:
"Thank you, boss!"
Fei Zhiyuan didn't forget those who weren't in the group but had also made significant contributions.
Kong Yaohui, who had traveled to Cologne to scout the enemy, and Chen Peng, who was undercover at Dream Building and whose current whereabouts were unknown, also received bonuses or promises of bonuses, respectively.
— Kong Yaohui received the money directly, but Chen Peng, due to his excessive slacking and frequent semi-disappearance, incurred Fei Zhiyuan's dissatisfaction, so his bonus was postponed.
To this, Chen Peng replied: "Oh, okay."
Then he continued to disappear.
—
In the following days, this momentum did not diminish in the slightest.
"Mirror World Story" stubbornly remained in third place on the mobile game bestseller list.
Industry peers were stunned by this result.
They were not only amazed by the boldness of Moyu Games but also by their greed —
Even in the testing phase, "Mirror World Story" offered double rewards for the first recharge, a 6 yuan starter pack, game material packs, and level-up gift packs every 5 levels from level 5, 10, 15, 20… all the way to the maximum level of 50.
It was a complete package.
But the most outrageous thing was that Moyu, under the guise of "allowing players to play their favorite characters" and "ensuring the comprehensiveness of the test," released the permanent pool and 6 character-up pools in one go!
Six limited characters, 3 male and 3 female.
Truly treating everyone equally.
To stimulate players to draw cards, they also announced in the announcement:
As long as you draw a character in this test, you will receive commemorative items and a thank-you letter from the character after the game is officially launched.
In addition, all players who spend money during the paid test will receive a weapon called [Pioneer].
Finally, all the money spent will not only be fully refunded after the official server goes online, but also additional draw tokens for the permanent pool will be given based on the amount spent.
Every aspect was considered.
When had anyone seen such a situation?
Seven card pools launched simultaneously, with three major strategies to stimulate consumption.
If this game wasn't developed by an established company like Moyu Games, they would have suspected that the game was just there to fleece players.
The intensity was simply too great!
"Can it be done like this?"
"Isn't the risk too high?"
"Why is Dream Building indifferent? Aren't they stealing their users?"
… …
Industry peers were in heated discussion.
But what shocked the industry peers the most was that such a blatant act of greed didn't provoke the players' condemnation.
This also baffled them.
In Mengjin's mobile game section, the discussion about "Mirror World Story" remained high, and Dream Building, as always, didn't care at all, just letting them chat as they pleased.
Without any external intervention, "Mirror World Story" had a very good reputation at the beginning:
"Finally, there is a second-dimension game that can challenge the scale of 'Frost Snow Project'!"
"Give 'Frost Snow Project' some pressure!"
"@FrostSnowProject, aren't you going to send out a 10-pull?"
"'Mirror World Story' is awesome! It successfully filled the huge market gap of 'Frost Snow Project' lacking lewd lolis!"
… …
This was truly without external intervention.
Not only did Dream Building not intervene, but Moyu also didn't intervene.
— Mengjin doesn't restrict players' discussions, but any hired commenters will be killed and their IPs will be blocked!
Under these circumstances, the overall reaction of the players was generally welcoming, and even somewhat delighted.
This fully proves that players have a great demand for this type of subject matter!
Just like Huan Yue said:
"Lewd things are always better in abundance."
In the past few days, he has been practicing this principle in person.
However, he didn't spend all his money to max out the card pool, but only spent a few thousand yuan to get two of his favorite female characters.
Then he went to play the story, wanting to see what the game was like.
He was a little uneasy about the fact that the card pool was half male and half female, and there was even a very lewd loli.
He always felt that something was wrong, but for a moment, he couldn't tell what was wrong.
… …
The Brave Sniper also tried it out.
However, he still had the burden of being an [Honorary Player], and in order to avoid being labeled a "traitor" after just removing the "scumbag" label, he decided not to spend a penny and be a zero-dollar player!
As a result, he drew [Wave Rider—Sukare] with the permanent pool draw tokens given by the novice mission.
A male character with eight-pack abs, huge pectoral muscles, and a rounded buttocks.
The viewers laughed:
"Let you pretend! Now you're stuck staring at a man's round butt!"
"This character is so weird… Did the artist used to make otome games?"
"I suggest you recharge, otherwise, it's uncomfortable for us to keep looking at a man's round butt, even if it's not uncomfortable for you!"
… …
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
The Brave Sniper was silent for a few seconds and performed a light-speed game exit and account deletion.
"Today, I will show you a traditional skill —"
"Brushing initial accounts!"
— So-called brushing initial accounts means constantly registering and deleting accounts, so as to repeatedly go through novice tasks, get the new account's draw resources, and draw cards in a loop.
Only when you draw the character you want will you continue to advance the story.
Although many second-dimension game players don't do this, they are not unfamiliar with this operation.
But which big streamer does this?
They watched with black lines on their foreheads as the famous streamer, the Brave Sniper, performed brushing initial accounts online.
He manually brushed 22 rounds in a row before finally drawing the character he wanted —
[Flower of Spiritual Language—Xingyue]
This is the character that players jokingly call "filling the gap of Dream Building not having lewd lolis."
It's just a pity that before he had time to appreciate this loli, who "wanders between life and death" and only has bandages to protect her body, he was hit by a double whammy!
"Mirror World Story" system warning —
[Warning!]
[Your account has been banned due to violations. If you have any questions, please contact customer service]
[Ban end time: 2025-10-31 24:00:00]
Next was a warning from the pilipili live broadcast platform —
[The live broadcast screen involves vulgar content]
[Live broadcast is prohibited for 30 minutes]
—
The Brave Sniper looked at the two warnings in front of him, fell into a double daze, and didn't know which one to complain about first.
After being stunned for several seconds, he said speechlessly:
"I forgot that 'Frost Snow Project' was also severely sanctioned by the platform back then."
"Didn't Moyu negotiate with the live broadcast platform?"
"No! Trash company, banning accounts for brushing initial accounts?"
"I didn't use any cheats or trade with anyone, and you ban me for manually brushing?"
The viewers also felt it was unreasonable and suggested that he contact customer service.
But the Brave Sniper was very unhappy.
"Appeal my ass, I'm not playing anymore, I'm going to find my wives in the harem."
— "Frost Snow Project"'s VR harem won the reputation of "cyber harem" on the day it was launched and is already the first choice for players to log in.
… …
… …
The Brave Sniper's live broadcast room being sanctioned by the super administrator is just the tip of the iceberg.
After a brief celebration, the "Mirror World Story" project team quickly fell into a state of anxiety —
A large number of streamers were sanctioned by super administrators for live broadcasting "Mirror World Story" and had to urgently avoid the risk and stop broadcasting.
The existence of this "risk" prompted other streamers to stop broadcasting as well.
For the current second-dimension games, not being able to broadcast live has an almost devastating impact on long-term promotion and community atmosphere shaping.
Harmony switch?
The "Mirror World Story" game itself was already frantically working overtime to catch up with the October test, how could there be time to make another batch of harmonized characters?!
Moreover, Gong Feng also couldn't understand:
Why is the treatment of "Mirror World Story" and "Frost Snow Project" so different?
Are they targeting us!?
