Chapter 460
It's common for gamers to complain when a new game doesn't meet their expectations.
Ice Storm, thinking it would quiet down over time, diligently deleted negative comments. 300,000 comments were reduced to 10,000 overnight.
This action by the company further increased the gamers' animosity, and as a result, the statement by the Vice President of OTK Company to acquire Ice Storm, fire all the people who proposed developing Mephisto Infinity, and produce Mephisto 5, received tremendous support instead of criticism.
This spread not only in the gaming world but also became an internet meme, and thanks to this, the popularity of Lost Fantasy soared not only in North America but also globally.
In fact, after StormCon, the number of concurrent users in the United States increased by nearly 10 percent. This was the result of the combined antipathy towards Ice Storm and the favorable impression of Taekgyu.
Ice Storm, which had expressed its displeasure with the acquisition remarks on several occasions, sent a letter to OTK Company demanding a formal apology. However, instead of an apology, the Vice President released a response to the media stating that "the apology should be made by Ice Storm, which betrayed the expectations of the fans."
Under the Vice President's direction, OTK Games added new characters and campaigns in the North American region and attracted users by holding large-scale promotions and events.
-Don't you have a phone?
-Yeah. You don't have a job now. Because I'm going to acquire you and fire you LOL
