Chapter 25: Chicken Box (4)
After the simple first greeting, we talked about this and that for about an hour.
I couldn't intervene because most of the stories were related to broadcasting.
However, since all three of them were streamers from a large company, I was able to listen to various tips from just listening.
By the way, with three streamers gathered, the audio is continuously filled. I have to say that it is enough to get tired just by listening to it.
"Ah right. Since we're here, should we go to the company’s capsule room and play some games?”
Dongsoo hyung seems to have gotten bored while talking.
Even if they play the game every day, would they want to play it again?
I'm in favor of it, but the rest…
"I was wondering when we were going to the capsule room."
“Should we do it comfortably without broadcasting?”
"Of course. I feel like I'm working if we were to broadcast.”
……Um, the rest of them also really love games.
In fact, a game streamer is a job that cannot be done unless you love games.
"By the way, what game?"
"How about <Samurai Wars>? It's our homework starting next week, and I think it'll be okay to prepare in advance."
Dongsoo hyung.
He's a person who's truly crazy about broadcasting.
Before sleeping or after waking up, I think he only thinks about broadcasting.
What's funnier is that the other two streamers also nodded and agreed with Dongsoo hyung’s opinion.
"That’s not bad."
"I've tried it a bit before, but it was really not fun back then. How the hell do Japanese guys play that?"
"I don't know. I heard that they added a lot of content during the update though? It'll be more fun than before.”
"Hmmmm, to be honest, I've burned quite a lot of Japanese virtual reality games."
Ah.
I have to at least do that much to succeed as a streamer.
It was an attitude that should be imitated.
Anyway, as soon as we made the decision, we immediately headed to the capsule room on one side of the company.
The total number of capsules installed in the large capsule room is 10.
It felt like there were unnecessarily a lot of them.
As expected, the capsule model was Infinity manufactured by Phoenix.
They said that it was a non-commercialized model, but everywhere I went, it was Infinity.
At this point, it’s suspicious.
Now that I see it, isn’t it a cheaply sold model in the capsule company?
"Sungjae hyung said he already installed <Samurai Wars>, so you can log in right away."
"Okay."
"See you at the game."
Like that the three streamers entered the capsule without much to say, and I copied them and accessed the capsule.
As soon as I started <Samurai Wars>, the intro video of samurais fighting with swords appeared.
And soon a notice appeared in front of my eyes.
[Welcome to the <Samurai Words>]
[There is no registered nickname. Please decide on your nickname!]
I roughly put the word that came up my mind and then proceeded immediately to the next step.
When I entered the waiting room, other streamers who had already logged in were waiting for me.
Because the capsule's line was connected, it was a system that could join without a party.
“Since we’re all here, let’s start with a quick match.”
Dongsoo hyung naturally played the role of leader and told others.
"Is the <Battle Royale> mode no good?"
“In this game, <Battle Royale> mode is only solo. It's a bit inconvenient to be together and the mode we will be playing is <Team Battle>. Serin, I heard you've played this game before though?”
"For about one till three hours."
"……if the trash game discriminator disqualified this, it seems like this game is a trash game."
Dongsoo hyung smiled bitterly and shook his head.
But in fact, you don't know about games until you try them yourself.
I moved my body and said to Dongsoo hyung.
"Let’s see whether it’s poop or soybean paste."*
TL/N : (In previous sentences I translated poop as trash since it suits more), so both of them have a similar color and its a saying in korea, what it means is that you have to try it first before knowing.
<Samurai Wars>, like it or not, it will be my broadcast debut game in the future.
Besides, my broadcast life might be determined by how I perform here.
That's why I had to show the most active movement.
If you can learn by playing the game yourself in advance, you will be able to create a more perfect scenes.
Dongsoo hyung nodded his head when I came out with a positive attitude.
"Yeah, let's try it first."
[Searching for a Match!]
[Moving to Osaka Castle!]
The screen flickered for a moment, and all of a sudden we were able to arrive at Osaka Castle, where cherry blossoms were fluttering.
Different from what i expected, it was a beautiful visual.
While I was admiring, Serin noona, who was next to me, frowned and uttered a word.
"I'll just care about the gameplay. What's the use of being pretty? It's not fun."
She’s the type to spit out spiteful words without hesitation with a pretty face.
That's noona's broadcasting style.
<Team Battle>, one of the modes of <Samurai Wars>, takes place in the form of occupying 3 bases with a total of 6 team members.
There were two conditions for victory.
Either occupy 3 bases or occupy more bases than your opponent at the end of the round.
It's one of these two.
I haven't played it myself, but I knew that much in advance. I've heard so many stories.
Our party has four people.
That's why two other players joined our team.
The two newly joined players were both Japanese, just like <Samurai Wars>.
This game does not support voice translation, but only chat translation.
The Japanese players assigned to our team soon began tapping harsh swear words into the chat.
– I will kill you, Korean.
– You're a piece of crap!
"Hey, what's wrong with them?"
Dongsoo hyung looked at me as he saw the reaction of the Japanese players, and I answered with a shrug.
"I think it's because of my nickname."
"Nickname? What the hell is your nickname…"
Dongsoo hyung, who checked my nickname, couldn't speak anymore.
The same was true of the other two streamers.
Dongsoo hyung, who had been speechless for a long time, asked me carefully.
"Will you really be okay?"
"Of course. I'm better at it when I'm criticized. And I'm… aren’t I a bad guy?”
Nickname Little Boy Fatman.*
TL/N : I'll explain why this nickname offend the Japanese players on notes
If you want to attract attention, you have to drag it hard.
Little Boy Fatman : So actually MC’s nickname consists of 2 words : “Little Boy” and “Fat man”, that were merged into one “리틀보이팻맨”. "Little Boy" was the codename for the type of atomic bomb dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima on 6 August 1945 during World War II and “Fatman” was the codename for the atomic bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki City , Nagasaki Prefecture on August 9, 1945. It also refers to only those nuclear weapons that were dropped on Nagasaki as actual nuclear weapons.
hyung : a term used by males to address someone older who has the same gender
