Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 2 Episode 7
3. Zombie School (1)
There was a reasonable reason.
‘This is an ad from the Kingdom production company, so if possible, I should choose a related game.’
In fact, if it were another streamer, this choice wouldn’t have been special at all.
The problem is that the game Kingdom Age has a special meaning in Almond’s room.
-Wow, King Taesik is really back!
-ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
-ㄴㅇㄱ
-Kingdom warriors are going to Holy Fire as a group haha
-Rozenita ㅠㅠ I’m finally going ah!
Kingdom is Almond’s first game and the game that laid the foundation for its fan base. It was also the game that Almond had the greatest influence on.
It even temporarily increased game sales.
As such, Kingdom and Almond have a significant relationship. Unfortunately, this is the game I played the shortest time.
That’s why there were many people who were enthusiastic about Kingdom’s comeback. This is what they have always been waiting for.
May the King of Kingdom Age return.
-The Return of the King (Steamed)
-K… Mondya. After you did it, the percentage of bow users increased hahaha
– Kingdom’s proud bow ㅠㅠ Is it back?
-Why are we so evil?! Just be tall…! If you don’t do this! almond! I’m not even interested in the Kingdom!
-Assemble the Kingdom Armour!
There are those who are called Kingdom Musae.
It’s Kingdom A, but it means shouting like a parrot. Although they are few in number, their firepower is considerable.
Since Kingdom is a game with quite a few characters…
Of course, not everyone wants Kingdom Age. In fact, an absolute majority of the public does not want Kingdom Age.
-There’s an uproar, Kingdom Warriors haha.
-Just make fun of Raina ㅠㅠ
-Lil, aren’t you doing it anymore?
The game that Almond became famous for was Reel, not Kingdom.
That’s why most people wanted Reel rather than Kingdom. Otherwise, I would rather play a new game.
To begin with, Kingdom is an unpopular game.
However, if you look at the chat, it is overflowing with Kingdom Mushrooms. As if it were a super popular game.
The reason is ‘Concept Kingdom Moose’.
-There are a lot of concept junkies these days.
-Phone Kingdom Mu Sae haha
– It’s obvious that it’s an influx, but the shouting for Kingdom is really haha
– They’re just following it because it’s a trend
– The Jamminis are here.
This was a very strange phenomenon from Almond’s perspective.
‘You’re asking me to play Kingdom when I’ve never seen it or played it before.’
Of course, people who have never played Kingdom or even watched Almond broadcasts at the time are shouting for Kingdom.
Joo-hyuk interpreted it as because he wanted to feel a sense of identity with Almond’s broadcasting culture.
Of course, despite all the ‘Kingdom Effect’, what Almond was trying to do now was a completely different game.
[Zombie School]
-???What kind of game is this?
-Why don’t you do Kingdom!? Why don’t you do Kingdom!? Why don’t you do Kingdom!? Why don’t you do Kingdom!?
-Wasn’t it a Kingdom ad??
-Nut Shack… they fooled us again ㅠㅠㅠ
-Is this a test play?? yes?
Ignoring the heartbreaking chatter, Almond greets you with the loading screen of a new game in the background.
“Tha!”
-aha!
-Ahahaha!
-Hello.
Greeting chat coming up.
“Preparations are a little late. “I just downloaded it and tried it out.”
-What game is this?
-Is this an advertisement?
-Why is this ‘that game’ Nut Shack
? -Is the title aggro??
Although criticism started popping up in the chat immediately, Almond had no hesitation.
At least in his head he’s confident!
“no. “It’s not aggro.”
-Then what? Haha
– You’re being criticized, you have a shameless face haha
– No haha, you don’t have to tell me the reason haha
– It’s not aggro. “ This
is an advertisement from the Kingdom Age production company.”
-Wow
– ㄴㅇㄱ
-ㄹㅇ??
-Wow
-Is this a new work???
-When I looked it up, it was real.
Everyone was surprised to hear that it was an advertisement for the Kingdom production company. This is because it is quite difficult to directly receive advertisements from overseas production companies.
Moreover, I quickly realized that I did not receive it through punk.
-Not in punk?
-What is it, a beta test?
-When
a streamer plays a game, there are always a few viewers who immediately buy it and try to play it together.
But I can’t find the game.
“It’s not punk… um… hmm.”
Almond, Punk’s partner streamer, seemed to have a hard time telling him to buy it from Higames, so he just glossed over it.
-Is this exclusive to HiGames? Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk –
This
is really so-so lol
-???: Buy it at Higames!
“Well, someday it will come into punk. “This is an advertisement for that time.”
It is not wrong to say that once the exclusivity period is lifted, funk will also enter.
– Invincible logic;
-This is the excuse skill of a former Asung assistant manager?!
– Haha, it takes less than a second to wrap around
– It’s amazing, I’m truly impressed.
Almond glances at the chat window and nods.
Viewers seemed to be somewhat convinced.
Now you can start playing the game.
‘I think it would be fun.’
Excited. Excited.
A new game I’ve been playing for the first time in a while.
The game concept and fun direction pursued were all things that stimulated Almond’s curiosity.
“I’ll turn Done back on first. “I turned it off for a while because I was afraid the Kingdom Warriors would get angry with Done because they thought it was Kingdom.”
– Collection time lol
– I knew this guy would be angry!
-You knew it. Tenkkkk
-As soon as the deal calculation Doratnu
sponsorship limit was lifted, donations poured in.
There were some big players who paid in increments of 100,000 won and even 1 million won to commemorate his return.
It took almost 30 minutes just for everyone to send their thanks.
After that, it was mainly question time.
There were a lot of questions asking how I felt about Evening Wide’s appearance, but in general…
[Isn’t it a reel anymore?? ㅠㅠ]
[Really, throw away Raina!?]
[If you take Raina’s lips and throw away the reel, Dehyeop won’t just sit still.]
There are a lot of questions about not doing the reel.
“ah. As for the Siege of Lille… I don’t think I’ll be able to continue it as long as I did last time. “I’m probably thinking of trying a convoy battle later.”
I didn’t even discuss it with Joo Hyuk. They both had the same idea.
-Raina: Phew…
-You’re in a convoy war.
-Oh! I’ll be good at that too. I think I’ll be even better at that
– Most of the convoy battles are really physical battles, so it would really ruin the balance haha
– Wow, I’m glad you did ㅠㅠ
– Now, following Kingdom Musae, there will be Lil Musae LOL
– It’s a reaction game like Baera. I’ll spend it. The Baera Radish has been exterminated haha.
“First of all…”
Almond pressed the button that had been floating in the air earlier.
“It starts with this game.”
[Zombie School]
[Single Mode]
As the surrounding area becomes dark, even all sounds disappear.
-ㄷㄱㄷㄱㄷㄱ
-Gazuaaaa
-Mom! I don’t want to go to school! Give me Raina!
* * *
‘what. ‘Why don’t you start?’
Loading takes longer than expected.
It’s not a very pleasant feeling to have to float in a dark space for a long time without feeling anything.
‘I guess it’s because it’s a new work.’
Almond waved his hand around to see if anything could happen.
“…Hmm.”
hmm?
It makes a strange noise.
For some reason, it sounds like a sleeping person makes it.
“hey! Number 12!”
puck.
Along with this loud voice, white light suddenly comes from all directions.
My eyes were opened.
“Are you sleeping again? Are you sleeping openly?”
A teacher with a grim expression is standing in front of me.
Yes. As the name Zombie School suggests, the setting of this game was a school.
“Get up from your seat. Number 12.”
A teacher with a harsh expression and a Gyeongsang-do accent. In a way, having trouble with the teacher from the beginning is similar to the Lan story mode…
but in fact, it was completely different.
‘what. here.’
Almond looked around and was startled.
A very familiar environment.
Sense of presence.
‘It’s school, right?’
It’s school.
Yes, of course it is school. That’s natural.
‘A completely Korean-style school.’
It is a replica of the Korean school that Almond spent his school days in.
I had never played or heard of a game like this before, so it felt like I was suddenly attacked without warning.
gulp.
Almond swallowed dry saliva.
I suddenly became nervous about this situation, which seemed so real.
This is unusual for him.
‘I can’t believe they implemented a Korean school in the same way.’
A dark green blackboard, a prison-like window above the children’s eye level, and the rough, rough paint on the wall. A creaky floor full of dust.
Meanwhile, the Korean flag hung in the center of the classroom and even the class motto beneath it.
[The closer your rank gets to Diamond, the closer your life gets to Bronze.]
-Wow, it’s a historical fact
. -It’s so cool hahahaha
-It’s a Korean school haha.
“That’s right… Diamond doesn’t work. “I have to take the Challenger…”
Almond mumbles without realizing it and then gets shocked.
Because I felt that life was harsh.
“Number 12.”
A teacher with a fierce Gyeongsang Province accent growls and approaches.
“yes!”
Without realizing it, Almond answers like he did in his school days.
– Haha, what is it, Almond?
– You’re scared of Mr. Almond.
– You must be good at immersing yourself~~
“What did you just say? Number 12.”
thud.
The teacher, who was almost ready to kill someone, looked down and asked.
-Wow, this teacher is a boxer. Why did he become a teacher
? -This physical math teacher is hell.
What the hell is this teacher like a gangster leader?
Even from Almond’s perspective, this teacher was not an ordinary human being.
“Ah… I didn’t say anything.”
“….”
The teacher just glared at Almond without saying a word.
Then he suddenly asked:
“Why don’t you have a nametag? “What is your name?”
I guess I should say my name here.
“…almonds.”
“what?”
-Hahahahahahahahaha
– I don’t think it’s working?
-Where’s that name? It’s the eyes that say haha
– Wow, that’s it
-???: What? almond? Are you kidding me?
‘what.’
Didn’t I ask for your name?
As you play the game, you naturally come up with a nickname like this. The reaction is strange.
“almond?”
The teacher’s face is distorted like a pot lid thrown into a furnace.
“therefore. “Your last name is A and your first name is Mondra?”
Hahaha.
The kids next to me start laughing.
“That’s right…”
Almond looks around, not knowing what’s going on. All the kids laugh at that as if they are wondering if that makes any sense.
“Why is he like that?”
“I don’t know. Phew.”
“Here we go again.”
The teacher looks around sharply, as if telling everyone to be quiet. Then it becomes completely quiet again.
Those charismatic eyes that covered a 360-degree radius returned to Almond again.
“hey. Number 12.”
“…?”
“Are you kidding me?”
“Oh no.”
“What is your name?” I ask just one more time. “Speak properly.”
What on earth?
It’s not up to me to decide the name.
Almond worked hard to understand the situation.
‘Overly realistic background… great historical research… it seems like a game that prioritizes realism.’
First of all, the characteristic feature of this game is the sense of realism.
It wouldn’t make sense for a Korean name to be Almond in such a game.
‘Then…’
He thinks about it and then shouts out his name.
“It’s Kim Joo-hyuk!”
When it comes to Koreans, it’s Mr. Kim.
The teacher squinted.
I look at the attendance sheet. If I’m wrong again this time, that attendance record will immediately turn into a weapon.
“Be sure to put on your name tag. Did you understand?”
“yes!”
phew.
thank god. I guess it was acknowledged.
Only then did the math teacher return to his desk.
-Kim Joo-hyuk??
-What is it all of a sudden?
-Isn’t that the name of a walnut? That manager
– Why did you name the manager hahaha
– I’m going crazy haha
For some reason, Almond doesn’t know either. I just didn’t want to do it under my own name.
Ding! Ding!
It seemed like Joo-hyuk was sending a message, but Almond decided to just watch the class.
“How far did you see earlier? Ah… I mean. Cosine squared….”
Tak. Ta-da-da-da-da….
A gentle beat created by chalk in a leisurely, low-pitched voice.
‘Ah…’
Damn. It’s an ordeal from the beginning.
I’m sleepy again.
* * *
“Oh, it’s hot. “Fuck…”
PD Jang frowned at the cigarette burn that had already reached the tips of his fingers.
He lit a cigarette and threw it away without taking a few puffs.
Cigarettes weren’t important right now.
“What is this? It’s really not a joke.”
In fact, he had no interest in the game medium. In the past, when VR games first appeared, I bought them at home and enjoyed them. I thought it was amazing to see a game that I could enjoy in full dive, so I tried it a few times and didn’t stay for a few days.
‘It definitely wasn’t of this quality.’
Since he was born with no interest in games, his interest may have cooled down quickly.
This is largely because the Full Dive game at the time was so crude.
But this game called ‘Zombie School’ has just come out.
There wasn’t any particular story going on.
‘You can barely tell the difference, right? No, I can’t tell the difference at all.’
It is completely indistinguishable from reality.
Most games ‘deliberately’ show off their graphics. This is to avoid the uncanny valley phenomenon.
Even if you do that, there is no problem in enjoying it as a full dive.
But this zombie school did not work. Passed through head on.
[Ding~dong~dang~dong~]
The school bell rings and even PD Jang, who is watching, flinches.
It’s so similar to the old school bell.
Overwhelming memories, longing, excitement at the time, entrance exams that made me vomit, a reading room that felt like a prison at times….
The scent of an old desk and the noisy laughter of children.
This is conveyed even beyond this small screen. How immersed will those who actually play it be?
Moreover, school life fits perfectly with Korean sentiments….
“This… is okay. This is okay.”
Producer Jang had new ideas springing up in his head.
see.
An entertainment show that has never been done before.
New market.
No, a new beginning…!
