Compared to them... Lin Miao, can only strip... uh... reuse these original world employees' sleep time every day at most.
Eight hours or flexible working hours, freely assigned tasks.
What?
You're talking about salary and benefits?
That's not decided yet.
It should... probably... maybe... might... exist...
Or should I say, the company gives you work, lets you grow, gain experience and qualifications, how can you bring up the money with such a vulgar request?
Where's your conscience?
Where's your ideals?
You should be giving me money instead!
Just kidding, Lin Miao wouldn't treat players like this.
After all, he's not a demon, proper treatments should still be there.
Anyway, Lin Miao looked at the endlessly updating posts on the forum on the screen, and the flashing message icons in private groups, feeling a mix of emotions, couldn't believe that after waking up, he and the netizens he used to chat and game with are now worlds apart, truly regrettable.
But it's okay, I'll drag you all down to see me soon.
Lin Miao looked at the penguin group on the computer with only a few familiar faces chatting sparsely, already having a plan in mind.
[System, can you interfere with the original world's internet?]
[Yes]
It makes sense, otherwise how could it pull people in.
[Then set up a game website on the internet for us, name it "Future Horizon", don't add much content, just a video player, upload the trailer, and add an electronic neon-style logo at the end of the trailer, call it "Cyberpunk-2075", finally add a beta test reservation button, oh, and remember to add the suffix-0.1].
2075 is the current time displayed at the bottom right of the computer, Lin Miao didn't expect he would cross over five or six decades, surely it's not the same world timeline.
[Completed]
From the moment Lin Miao voiced this idea to when the system finished the website design, it took just a few seconds, the whole page was extremely simple, with a deep red gradient background containing visible streams of binary data, looking like a computer screen.
Upon pressing the play button in the middle, the background center collapses due to accelerated data flow, resembling shattered glass, the perspective zooms in behind the data stream, where there's infinite darkness, then after a familiar electric current sound and noise, the game's name appears in the darkness.
"Cyberpunk 2075-0.1 Beta Version"
Can't deny it's something capable of hauling people from another world, afraid that even the cyber AI drifting through the initial net couldn't match the system's capability.
Now, the task is to find a way to get a trailer up there to trick... should say recruit new players into the game.
But before that, there's something Lin Miao needs to understand.
[System, if the people I pull in die in this world, what would be the impact?]
[No impact, the player's consciousness is merely data-connected to the bio-modification pod created body, physical death would disconnect from consciousness, afterward, just need to reconstruct or repair the body to reconnect, besides that, sensory sensitivity can be set, reduce or amplify pain sensation.]
[What about hackers? Would hackers harm their soul?]
[Hackers and AI can only overload brain chips or neural components but cannot traverse the system to attack or modify the player's consciousness itself.]
.....
Lin Miao breathed a sigh of relief and envied the soon-to-arrive players, God knows how many lives he has, Lin Miao wouldn't want to stick his head in front of other's gun and bet on how many lives he has, even if revival is possible, he wouldn't bet.
So to give back, it's best to 'treat' these players well in the future.
[System, can you override the consciousness of those players, meaning I can give commands to them?]
[Yes, but better not issue strong directives, as there is no treaty restriction, system and host cannot affect player's log-out freedom, much less harm them, if players feel repulsive, it could cause mass negative publicity.]
Sounds like this system is more worried about the future development of the agency than Lin Miao.
[No worries, since it's a game, there needs to be a panel and task system set up to guide players' subjective initiative, but I'm not a coder, can only suggest, foundational setup of each system can only be accomplished by you.]
[Understood]
Besides these systems, Lin Miao cannot pull too many players into the game at once, otherwise it could cause trouble.
There's a classic joke:
A test engineer walks into a bar, orders a beer, no problem.
Orders a coffee, no problem.
Orders 0.7 beers.
Orders -1 beers.
Orders 2^32 beers.
Beats the owner.
Trashes the bar.
Drives a car into the bar.
In short, testing the bar in all sorts of ways, it never caused any issues, until opening day, players entered the game, went to the bar and ordered a fried rice dish.
The bar exploded.
Because even the game developers don't know what those players have in mind, they always find different ways to glitch and do stupid things.
Lin Miao doesn't know if this world has running glitches, but if Lin Miao doesn't establish a constraint system and task network, this bunch of lunatics might climb up Arasaka Tower the first day and jump off, or even get themselves into trouble with those major corporations and gangs. Their death isn't a big deal, Lin Miao knows not if he can revive, if he truly offends someone he shouldn't and gets himself killed with them, that'd be a huge loss.
