Episode 156 – Perfect DLC

A periodic phenomenon has been occurring in the metagamer community recently.

[3. Lost Arcana]

At some point, the community's top rankings were almost fixed.

It was a phenomenon that changed in an instant.

The cause of this incident was not an intentional increase in traffic, such as a system error or a DDoS attack.

Surprisingly, the cause was the end of a streamer's broadcast.

[If you like it by doubling the bonus, please recommend (999+)]

[Collection of wise sayings of True Confessor Bitidasunim (914)]

[Uncle Godple playing with Gemmin clip (879)]

[Perfect Maximum – Fury Road Release (857)]

[The Trojan War, which became the motif of the Realm of Wrath, Araboza (831)]

Even though it was late at night, the viewers were still full of energy. As soon as Lee Kyung-bok's broadcast ended, they flocked to the community to chat.

But today, unlike before, a topic outside of gaming has come up.

[My younger sister asked me to make a Demerk reservation]

[I've never done a pre-order before in my life, but this time I'm seriously thinking about doing it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

But my little sister saw the broadcast and asked me to buy it for her too lol

So when I told him that he had to be an adult to do this, he started crying and making a fuss (he's now in his third year of high school lol)

He keeps complaining that he's missing out on the great reservation specials, but when I ask him if he knows what the specials are, he just sits there dumbfounded.

I couldn't believe how he was acting like he didn't know anything, so I hit him with a hammer. Oh my god

When I found out, it was the reflection of the mirror that was the geoshiaeoh hawawa

Was it cute that he was even curious about himself? Ah, my!

(Demuck's story) What special privileges should I reserve?]

[-Does dissociative identity disorder also have symptoms of perversion? ㅅㅂㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[NyaikㅋㅋㅋCrazy people come out every dayㅋㅋㅋ]

[I'm sick of the community-style questioning method lol]

[What kind of aggro-pulling skills are you talking about!]

[-I am a legend who was reading seriously]

[The fact that my high school senior sister watched the broadcast is a foreshadowing ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[LOL lol how does a high school senior watch the broadcast?]

[I learned how to make a double track while watching Demerk]

[This is why you have to read community posts from the beginning to the end ㅋㅋㅋ]

The advance purchase that was revealed during the broadcast has emerged as a new topic of conversation.

[-ㅅㅂ I'm answering because the effort is admirable ㅋㅋ Look at the replies]

[I’ll pass on the goods and art books because I have to decide based on the quality]

[The in-game special feature is a bit of a problem. When I watched the broadcast, the original design looked pretty good, so is a skin really necessary?]

[ㅇㅇㅇ It really came out well this time]

[If you think about it based on the console version, it was mainly pistols, swords, and outfits, but it seems like a demon skin will be added this time]

[I think the one with goods included will be the best, and the skin will be the basic bonus? I expect the price to be around 150,000 won or less.]

Those who talked about the privilege realized one thing.

[-So then you’re not demonizing Godple?]

[Oh yeah lol lol]

[ㅋㅋㅋ I used it once during a tutorial and haven't used it since]

[Wow, f*ck, that's right ㅋㅋㅋ I couldn't even think about it because it was so awesome]

[Isn't it obvious that God can't become a devil?]

[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ Even if you are a training assistant, you can't be a god]

[ㄴ???: Depending on your actions, you can become either an angel or a devil]

[Why is the assistant teacher with me, f*ck ㅋㅋ]

The story about pre-orders has once again turned into praise for Lee Kyung-bok's skills.

As the night deepened, the excitement in the community seemed to be dying down.

[Holy Land Reservation?) Did you get a tip from Riddit?]

One newly uploaded post caught my attention.

[I was looking at the reactions on Reddit and translated something that gave me a feeling.

Gotpl's voice is pretty hot in North America right now, but the person who uploaded this has been making mods since the beginning of the experience broadcast.

English specialists just enlarge the photo and write the translation ㅋㅋㅋ

<Do you guys know me?

I've been uploading the process of making the 'Durante Must Perfect' mod.

But now I can't make it.>

<I didn't give up

The developer requested deletion and didn't even give a reason.

But I wasn't mad lol

Rather, I was happy!

I had a feeling something!>

<Think about it.

Originally, Gaegum was very generous with mod creation, right?

How many bark mods have I made!

But you requested deletion of only the voice pack mod and not any other mod?>

<I believe you all know what this means.

Of course, it may just be my brainchild, but…

Anyway, I'm sorry that everyone was expecting this, but no, I'm not sorry.

Because a better future might be waiting for us.>

As soon as this came up, there were a ton of comments lol

Only a few of them came to mind

<Oh my god, was this removed by 'official' request?>

<F*ck, this is crazy. This is the most correct decision in the history of dog gum!>

<Mod production has stopped but no one is sad lol>

<If you don't understand this, then it's not time to play games lol. Go back to school!>

It's still just a rumor, but doesn't it have the potential to be a king? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

There was news that the production of the mod that extracted Lee Kyung-bok's voice had been discontinued.

But everyone accepted that fact happily.

[-This guy really consistently translates Godple's overseas reactionsㅋㅋㅋ]

[Thank you, Translation Wagon!]

[Nah haha I need to hear news about overseas compatriots too]

[N overseas compatriots f*ckㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Nthose people also subscribed to Pertube, so they're the eldest Koreans ㅋㅋ]

[Now you only need to know Korean!]

[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ The Korean language proficiency test is required for naturalization]

[-Is this an official voice pack release?]

[You can tell just by looking at them ㅋㅋㅋ]

[But why didn't you say anything about it on the broadcast?]

[It may not be confirmed yet?]

[But from the dog's perspective, it is necessary to prepare in advance]

[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ If the user mode comes out first, I might lose the desire to buy it]

[-Wow ㅋㅋㅋ If you give me the voice pack, I don't need any other goods]

[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ Do you get sick of the goods if you look at them? Don't you get sick of Godple's voice?]

[The balance is definitely broken lol]

[I'm going to buy Mujisung!]

Korean fans were no exception.

The next day, early afternoon.

Lee Kyung-bok and Park Joo-ho visited the CAP Company building again.

Park Joo-ho glanced at the time and said to Lee Kyung-bok.

“Let’s do one last check.”

Park Joo-ho received an email from the developer requesting renegotiation at the same time as revealing the pre-order purchase schedule yesterday.

While Lee Kyung-bok was on the air, he organized the stories and materials he heard from the attorney.

“The percentages vary from 0.5% to 10%. But what’s more important is the amount we get back for each sale.”

Based on the data organized in this way, Park Joo-ho consulted with the attorney again.

“Yes. The amount recommended by the attorney is 1,000 won per case, right?”

“I’m asking again.”

It was a very simplified matter, so it wasn't hard to remember. Still, there was a reason why Park Joo-ho checked it again.

“But are you still going to do it for 500 won?”

This was because the final decision maker, Lee Kyung-bok, thought that receiving only 500 won per unit would be sufficient.

Lee Kyung-bok responded with a laugh at his serious attitude.

“Hey, how much money can you make from this? I think it’s better to focus on fan service rather than profit.”

“That’s definitely not wrong.”

“Yeah, the more people enjoy it, the better.”

Park Joo-ho let out a short sigh and nodded, but his face still looked regretful.

“And you were the one who did it first?”

"what?"

“Even if you hold the knife, don’t swing it.”

This was a story that came up when discussing the previous experiential broadcast contract.

“Actually, if you just look at your current income, it’s not insufficient. There’s no need to be greedy.”

Lee Kyung-bok said confidently.

That's no wonder, since his genius was quiet even with this decision.

“Okay, I got it. It’s almost time, so let’s go up.”

Park Joo-ho adjusted his glasses and straightened his clothes. Unlike his attitude, which seemed as if he was going to battle, Lee Kyung-bok looked relaxed, as if he was going out for a walk.

The two people with such contrasting atmospheres entered the conference room with guidance.

“Oh, welcome.”

As with the previous meeting, the Korean branch manager, Frank Choi, was waiting for them.

Lee Kyung-bok also smiled and greeted me.

“Yes, it’s nice to meet you. I wonder if I come here too often.”

“If it’s Purple, you’re always welcome. Even if you don’t have any business, you can come and rest and leave.”

The atmosphere was very gentle. But Park Joo-ho did not let his guard down. Business was not a realm of emotions.

'This time, the North American branch is participating again.'

Same seating arrangements as previous meetings.

As expected, the North American official I had seen before appeared across from them.

<Now, let’s talk about the suggestion Purple mentioned earlier… … >

After exchanging greetings, the real agenda came up. The eyes of the officials and the branch manager became sharp.

The cheerful atmosphere from just a moment ago became heavy as if it were a lie.

'Kyungbok said he didn't mind receiving less, but he'd like it to be around 1,000 won per unit.'

Park Joo-ho looked at the hologram that appeared before his eyes without showing any sign of nervousness.

I told him not to be greedy, but that didn't mean I would lower the price on purpose.

What they have prepared is only the minimum standard, and they have decided to sign a contract if a higher standard is met.

“These are the conditions decided upon through discussions between head office and branch executives.”

Along with the CEO's words, a holographic document appeared before my eyes.

<The selling price was set at 5 dollars in North America, 5,000 won in Korean currency, and 500 yen in Japan. I think it would be reasonable to divide the ratio by 1:9.>

The gist of the document came out of the mouth of the North American branch manager.

Park Joo-ho sighed inwardly.

'Kyungbok got it exactly right.'

Coincidentally, isn't this a situation that meets the minimum standards they set?

But Lee Gyeong-bok’s reaction was different.

“I’m sorry, but is there a typo in the ratio?”

Park Joo-ho's eyes lit up at those words. He looked at the ratio written on the contract again and the same question came to mind.

because.

'It's not 9 on the other side, but our side's ratio is 9?'

This was because 10% of the '1:9' mentioned by the other party was towards the developer and not Team Perfect.

At this, the branch manager laughed.

“No, that’s not possible. We’re not a company that can’t even write a single contract properly.”

<Let me be precise. 90% of the proceeds from the sales of the voice pack goes to Purple and Team Perfect.>

Park Joo-ho blinked at the North American official's words. He couldn't understand it even after hearing it directly.

And one question mark popped into my head.

'No, why?'

The corners of the branch manager's mouth went up as if he noticed the question.

“I’m glad to surprise you both. But if you think about it, it’s only natural.”

“Of course?”

“Yes. We barely covered the production costs for this voice pack. Didn’t you already finish the voice sampling and editing?”

The answer flashed through Park Joo-ho's mind.

'Ah… …! All the cases that the attorney mentioned were cases where the company paid the production costs.'

It was a blind spot that I hadn't thought of.

But now, the company does not need to bear the production costs. So, even if the ratio increases, the company does not suffer a loss.

<We have already completed the quality check on our side. After analyzing Purple’s Q-Tube membership-only video, we concluded that there is no need for any additional modifications.>

“It was a part where you could really feel that Purple-nim was sincere about broadcasting. Recording and sampling with this kind of top quality is not something that just anyone can do. I don’t know the exact cost, but it must have cost a lot of money.”

The branch manager and the person in charge nodded their heads as they looked at each other. Park Joo-ho became nervous for another reason.

'… … No, that's a task I was assigned with a cup of coffee.'

Team Perfect offered the engineer a cup of coffee, and it wasn't even a very expensive brand. But the company representatives were completely unaware of this fact.

<Moreover, as Purple said, this is not a limited sale but a permanent sale. The promotional effect will also last longer, so this ratio is reasonable.>

“You may not believe it, but we made our decision because we thought it was the best possible deal.”

It was certainly as he said.

Whether B2B or B2C, isn't it usually the case that the smaller the scale, the lower the ratio?

'But 9:1? Isn't that too much of a concession? I would have been more than happy to accept 5:5.'

Park Joo-ho looked at the expressions of the two people and suddenly hardened his face. The conditions were so generous that he became cautious.

'We already have enough experience with contracts like this. However, it is still too far from the average ratio. Do you have any other thoughts?'

The company does not suffer losses.

Considering the effects they mentioned, there was no reason to increase the cost. Nevertheless, they chose to bear the cost.

'indeed.'

There is only one conclusion that emerges from this.

'Is this the concept of investment?'

If it's an investment that can yield greater returns, then the perspective changes.

It was clear that they were investing in the possibility called 'Purple', a possibility that was more certain than anyone else's.

“I don’t know about other influencers, but I don’t want to embarrass myself by cutting costs with Purple.”

<Haha, the series we make are not limited to BioCrisis and Demon Must Cry. You might be interested in other games we make.>

The two men added as if the idea was right. Only then did Park Joo-ho look back at his friend with a sense of relief.

'I told you, you really have a strong heart.'

Many thoughts crossed his mind at every moment. On the other hand, Lee Kyung-bok, the person involved, was consistent from the beginning until now.

The pure joy blooming on his face was proof of that.

'That's why there was no reaction.'

Lee Kyung-bok realized why the spirit was silent. No matter what criteria he and his friends set, the company had already decided on better conditions.

“It seems like good enough conditions to me.”

It was an offer that there was no reason to refuse.

He smiled and finished signing the contract.

“Oh, is this contract confidential?”

The branch manager then waved his hand in response to the question he posed.

“No, that’s not possible. Rather, I plan to release it as soon as possible.”

“Then I will reveal it myself on today’s broadcast.”

Lee Kyung-bok said with a smile.

“I want to tell the fans straight away.”

“Oh, if you could do that, we would appreciate it.”

This was what the company had hoped for as well.

So the meeting ended and everyone stood up.

“I’m really looking forward to today’s broadcast.”

Lee Kyung-bok nodded at the CEO's words. How would viewers react when they heard this news?

“Yes, me too.”

It wasn't just viewers who were waiting for the broadcast.
