Chapter 441: New Game
Ten years was enough time to change the shape of rivers and mountains. However, that time still wasn’t enough to change the lives of modern people who busily lived out each day.
[Aeon Soft’s Life of a Lord market share holding at 0.7%, still failing to pass the 1% mark.]
[Hellfire’s new game WooWa abandons monthly subscription, finally declares free service.]
[Countless virtual reality games released over the past few years, yet the wall of the winged horse Pegasus remains too high.]
[The success factors and secrets behind maintaining popularity for Pegasus’ sequel to MID Online, Fantasia Online.]
[Pegasus’ Fantasia Online surpasses 60 million simultaneous users, total registered users reach 1.3 billion.]
[Beloved maps from MID Online, now a service that has ended.]
On the day of the final battle, Kai defeated Muldine and the game’s main scenario came to an end. There was still Demon Realm content left but players cleared that too before two years had passed. At that point, Pegasus simply announced the service termination. Of course they didn’t shut down immediately, it was three years after the announcement.
It had already been five years since the game’s service had ended. After that, the so-called second MID Online and second Ramus targeting the niche market hurriedly poured out. However, those games all failed to produce good results.
The reason was simple. The ones who made the new super A.I.s were geniuses but not on the level of Dr. Jim. The new super A.I.s were smart but not as smart as Ramus. It wasn’t for nothing that Dr. Jim was called a once-in-a-century genius.
“In that situation, Fantasia Online came out.”
The map and story were dozens of times larger than the previous game and the system was even more advanced. MID Online at most had continent-level maps but Fantasia Online boasted a size comparable to a planet.
