Chapter 259 - : Players Eager Anticipation (1/2)

The pocket version of Minecraft was to allow players to experience the fun of the game on mobile, but compared to the PC and VR version, the mobile version loses out on a lot of content.

The mobile version didn’t support ‘Everybody’s World’ and ‘Chen Mo’s World’, but everything else was still there.

The VR, PC, and mobile versions shared the same code, meaning that the buildings players built on the mobile version could also be sold as blueprints and built on PC.

Chen Mo felt that the mobile version was in a good place, and the hardware wouldn’t support it even if he wanted to improve it anymore.

Thus, Minecraft’s PC, mobile, and international versions were all complete.

Minecraft was still continuing to gain popularity on various websites and forums.

And many designers were surprised at how well the game was still doing.

A month after its release, it already beat Thousand Hells’ in many aspects coming from a ten times price difference, making it an even more interesting topic.

Moreover, from the looks of the trending searches, topics on various forums, as well as various statistics, Minecraft kept its momentum as there were various types of content released daily as the player base continued to grow.

The most dumbfounded out of everyone was probably the designer of Thousand Hells, Yan Zhenyuan.

From an investment and game quality perspective, Thousand Hells was absolutely better than Minecraft, and from the feedback, player’s tastes as well as expert opinion, Thousand Hells was a flawless game.

But somehow, it just never gained popularity.

In theory, although Thousand Hells was priced higher than Minecraft, but because it was still within a reasonable price for VR games, there was no way it would lose out that badly.

But this game was lacklustre in many statistics and managed to earn a pretty penny, but it was completely overwhelmed by Minecraft, even giving the players an impression that Thousand Hells’ hype had already died down.

And even Yan Zhenyuan couldn’t understand this and concluded with this: Blackmagic.

And often when others talk about this topic, they’d think of what Chen Mo said during his video game announcement.

“Thousand Hells is a really fun game. It’ll surely sit at the top of the best sellers and be incredibly popular!”

Did Chen Mo really jinx it?

No way right?

Although this was completely ridiculous, Chen Mo’s jinx left an impression in the minds of many.

A most gained the attention of many players on Minecraft’s discussion forums.

It was titled: “Incredibly touching! Designer Mr Chen Mo’s gift to my daughter Nini.”

This post was from Nini’s father himself. Not only did he go through everything that happened, he even included a little clip.

The video was filmed from the father’s phone. In the video, Nini was focused on building a house in game with a tablet in her hand. Evidently, Nini’s building skills were much better than before, and even used stone to build a good looking wall.
