The Divine Genius’s Game Broadcasting - Chapter 700

Episode 700 – I Have Something to Tell You (3)
North American Community, Pertube Reddit.
As soon as the making film was first released, posts started to appear like mushrooms. This was because, as it was an advertisement video, subtitles and dubbing were provided even for non-members.
But the atmosphere was quite different from usual.
[I can’t expect that! I thought Purple would say something funny! But it’s because she has feelings for her fans!?]
[This means a lot to me, even Purple had a hard time. It makes me feel closer to him.]
[You are perfect, this is the first time I’ve heard those words in my life. Of course, there were many people who supported me. But most of them just said, ‘It’s okay’, ‘It’ll be okay’. But this… is really different.]
[We are Team Perfect, right? I’m not just saying to post it as a hashtag on SNS. Purple acknowledged it, right? We’re ‘Perfect’!]
Lee Kyung-bok’s message of gratitude and support touched their hearts. The moved fans shared their feelings and enjoyed the lingering emotions.
However, there were some differences in the expression due to the characteristics of the country.
[Just one sentence, I think that one sentence that Purple said was more effective than all the psychiatric counseling I’ve received so far! Of course, psychiatric counseling is good, but… they get paid in the end, right?]
[Seriously, considering the cost, this purchase of goods is a very good choice. I think listening to Perfect Voice every morning on my way to work will help my depression more.]
[Are you kidding? Not only is the cost a problem, but it’s also hard to make an appointment with a psychiatrist! But this voice figure is always by my side, right? It’s rude to compare!]
They accepted Lee Kyung-bok’s message more deeply than other countries because of differences in awareness and culture regarding mental health.
But still, the concerns were similar.
[It’s not easy. I don’t know how much merchandise Cap Company will prepare, but it’s sure to sell out as soon as it starts!]
[Oh god, please! Sales by country? That’s obvious! But America is so big?! Shouldn’t sales be determined by ‘state’ rather than by country?]
[Damn⋯! You should have included the voice figure combo option when I pre-ordered it! I would have bought it no matter how expensive it was!]
It was obvious that there would be a shortage regardless of the country. But fortunately(?), they didn’t have to just sit there and wait.
[Ok, I’m Ready!]
Some took action and posted their verification messages on the community.
[I shouldn’t write like this to reduce competition, but…
Should I listen to Purple?
Because I am perfect!
Here’s a tip especially for other ‘Perchungja’s.
(picture)
Can’t you see?
I’m next to ‘Game Start’ now.
Oh, of course I pitched my tent with the owner’s permission. We became close when I often came here to buy goods XD
Oh, these days gamers might not know about ‘Game Start’.
This is a store that used to sell packaged games before capsules came out. But when capsules came out and only downloads were supported, a change was needed.
Now it has become a store that sells capsules and specializes in goods.
(picture)
So why did I come here?
Of course it’s because of the goods!
We carry old games as well as the latest ones.
Can you see it? It’s a DMC Durante figure!
Well, it’s sold out online, what happened?
Here’s the answer.
Most game companies sell online, but they also supply to offline stores.
Of course, there may not be many of them, but if you look carefully, you can find such treasures!
I’m going to buy a Perfect Voice figure here!]
These were people who were preparing to open offline stores to avoid online competition.
At this, other fans’ eyes widened.
[Is it okay?! They haven’t announced what method it will be yet? We can only check it out after the PPL event is over, right?]
[He deserves it, I don’t know how much stuff will come in at game start, but if you put in this much effort, you deserve to buy it. Damn, I should go find a store near me!]
[Ok, I’m in! Actually, if someone who doesn’t know me sees me, they might think I’m pathetic. It’s not a luxury item, it’s just game goods. But it doesn’t matter. There’s one person in the world who’ll cheer me on!]
At first, people were skeptical about whether it would be okay, but they gradually became more enthusiastic and soon took action.
Although offline seemed to have less competition, there was another reason.
As we can see from the Korean case.
[It looks like Purple office, lol. I was jealous that it was only open in Korea, but it seems like we have a chance too! I mean, it’s just fans gathering and having fun, right?]
[Anyone in LA? I’m thinking about making a simple sandwich. When we were at Purple Office, Korean fans ate coffee and sandwiches, right? Let’s feel that way together!]
Even waiting for things related to Lee Kyung-bok was a pleasure.
* * *
Around the same time, Japanese Twitter.
[Japanese Trends]
[#You_are_perfect (9,231 tweets)]
[#皆さんは完璧です(8,451 tweets)
[#Perfect_Voice_Figure (8,136 tweets)]
[#Biocrisis2_Collaboration (7,285 tweets)]
Lee Kyung-bok’s message dominated real-time trends. Japanese fans were also touched, but their focus was different.
[Huh?! Huh!? Wait a minute⋯! Purple-san’s voice⋯! Isn’t it super dangerous? I can’t stop listening to it!]
[What kind of addiction is this⋯! Even if I try to hold it in, the regeneration in my brain won’t stop aaaaah! Huh? Do I like this?]
[This, this, are you all under some kind of hypnosis? Huh? The listener is perfect, isn’t that common sense?]
[No no, this isn’t an ASMR video. There’s too much timeline in the comments!]
This was because it was a mixture of fans of the game and those who were captivated by Lee Kyung-bok’s voice.
[Also, for followers who can’t find the comments on YouTube because there are too many of them. Just remember the Perfect Message section as 13:12~13:15 and 18:23~18:28?]
[Hey hey hey, how many times have you all been rewatching this? The views are rising, and you have no intention of stopping!?]
[Wow?! A great discovery! If you set the video playback speed to around 0.75, you’ll get that perfect inner voice feeling!? No, no, of course it won’t be as good as the original!]
Fans shared their admiration and tips(?) on how to enjoy the show. But they were also worried about the challenges ahead.
Since Japan is a country with an active goods market, its fans are particularly active.
[Damn it! You can at least tell me where to buy this! It’s hard from the start of the open run!?]
[Etc., but since it’s related to Purple C, wouldn’t Gokukiya be a strong candidate?]
[Huh? But Harvey Heaven is the largest, right? If it’s Cap Company, wouldn’t it fit there?]
[Ugh…! Was coming to Akihabara actually a trap? There are just too many store candidateswww]
With so many choices, fans had no choice but to wander.
Maybe that’s why.
[Oh my, you guys are still a bit immature waiting in front of the store. The most certain thing is the factory, right?]
[Wow! It’s a good thing I live in Osaka! The Kokukiya factory sells them too, huh? I might be the first buyer?]
Some fans sought a more fundamental solution. Most were surprised by the sight of fans even going to the factory, but one person took it for granted.
[Ah! Seriously⋯! If Shunko were in Japan, she would have gone right away! Shunko, this is the first time I regret coming to Korea! Why aren’t there any specialty goods stores in Korea!?]
[No, no, but online shopping is huge in Korea! Shunko, I was surprised to see the item I ordered arrive in front of my house at dawn! Ah, how great would it be if Perfect Goods were like that too! It’s a night when I really miss Purple Office!]
This was the account of Shunko, an enthusiastic fan that most Japanese fans would know.
[No no, Shunko-san! You’re too greedy. There are more people who haven’t been to the Purple Office!]
[Ah, as expected, there’s no end to the loss of points! Even Shunko-san, who went to a fan meeting, said something like this. Or rather, Shunko-san already received the perfect message?!]
[Hey, hey, really! Shunko, you’re aiming for a voice figure with a personalized perfect message!]
When others playfully pointed this out, she jokingly expressed her frustration.
[Huh? Are you kidding me? I own all the perfect goods, isn’t that common sense? Seriously⋯! There’s no way I could resist hearing that message from Purple C, right?]
[(picture)
Okay! This is Mr. Purple’s autograph!? Mr. Purple, you gave Shunko the best day ever? But with this voice figure, it’ll be upgraded to a perfect day!]
[This is your chance to become the Perfect Shunko, and on top of that, if you buy it once, you can hear Purple-san’s gentle voice for the rest of your life⋯! This is something I have no choice but to buy, right?]
Everyone agreed with this, but expressed regret. The situation did not go as planned.
[Ah, this goods will probably be hard to get right away⋯]
[What, do I have to hold out for a while with Qtube and wait for the supply to be released?]
[Also, if Cap Company isn’t stupid, they have no choice but to sell it all the time (laughs)]
Shunko didn’t have the confidence to overcome that fierce competition. However, she was bewildered by it.
[Huh? What are you all saying? It gets harder to get it as time goes by?]
[Oh, sorry. Forget the previous tweet! Everyone do whatever you want!]
Her sudden change of tone in her tweet caused others to question her even more.
[Ugh…! Shunko, your fingers are acting up! Well, I’ll tell you something special! Because Purple-san said it’s important to be ‘together’! Everyone should thank Purple-san?]
[Actually, you know. The competition rate is the lowest when sales start, right? But, this goods are perfect goods, but they are Bark 2 goods, right?]
The tweet, which came out as a gesture of goodwill, did not solve the question but rather made it bigger. Isn’t the content itself a fact that everyone knows?
[No, no, think about it! We’re all fans of Purple C, so we watched the broadcast! But there are also fans of Bark 2 who didn’t watch the Pertube to avoid spoilers, right?]
[What do you think will happen when those people see the ending and see what Purple-san is up to? Shunko, I think the waiting line will get even longer.]
At this, everyone’s head lit up.
The people who are waiting now are Lee Kyung-bok’s fans. Of course, that number is large, but what would happen if the game’s fans also joined in?
The original purpose of the collaboration was.
[Hey, hey, this isn’t a joke? If you find out about Mr. Purple’s activities in Chapter 5⋯!]
[It’s dangerous, this is really dangerous!? As Shunko said, the competition rate will increase!]
[Wow, there’s even a latecomer. This, this, even the competitors are collaboratingwww]
The idea was to bring together consumers from both sides in one place.

Early in the morning, streamer D’Artagnan’s broadcast.
“Damn it! Please just die!”
-Seriously lol If you hit 31 you should die lol
-At this point, shouldn’t Jessica die because she’s so pitiful? LOL
-Jessica: Isn’t this John? Why can’t he shoot?
-Well, what do you mean there’s no suitable candidate for Dal-hyung?
-Unsuitable John lol
His broadcasts were closer to entertainment than to talent.
After much hardship and perseverance, he finally defeated the boss of Chapter 4, Jessica.
“Okay! Finally! Hi! I pooped blood in the first part, and I pooped blood here too.”
The chat window erupted in laughter at the sigh that came out naturally. After briefly gathering his exhausted mind, D’Artagnan played the cutscene that had stopped.
“Huh, but still, I managed to see the ending today.”
-omg
-?
-Ending?
-Ahem ahem!
-Be careful of the moons^^
The viewers could only laugh at her proud appearance. Of course, D’Artagnan, who had considerable experience in broadcasting, could not miss that reaction.
“What? Why? What else is there? You guys, you know you have to be careful, right? Even if I want to let you know, our manager will mercilessly ban you if he sees any hint of a spoiler?!”
The chat window was filled with ‘^^7’ at the half-joking, half-serious warning. D’Artagnan laughed at that, but also took a deep breath.
“Mr. Ha, something feels uneasy… Anyway, let’s take a look.”
His hunch was not wrong.
A sigh escaped his lips the moment Sandra was caught by Jessica.
“Ah! Somehow, from the moment the choices came out, something felt strong! But no, right? Should I buy Sandra?”
The results came out before the viewers could even respond. And the results were not what everyone expected.
“Child, our child must⋯”
John, his eyes reddening, climbed over the wall. And just as he was about to run down the hallway after Kreutz,
“Jessica, no matter how much you envy me…! You can’t take my place.”
“What? Stop it now⋯!”
John turned his head at the voice coming from beyond the wall.
“Sandra?”
The moment he looked at the wall with a look of doubt, a single gunshot rang out.
The silence that came with him.
Tears fell from John’s dazed eyes and the screen went black.
“⋯Huh? Huh?! The end? The end!?”
The staff roll comes up next.
Even though D’Artagnan was a seasoned broadcaster with a long career, he couldn’t help but feel flustered.
“No, wait. What is this?! Even in an apocalypse, there must be a way out. Did you call this a story?”
D’Artagnan was beyond embarrassed and even angry. Fortunately, the viewers were not.
-My brother got a lot of compliments for being a real guy.
-It’s not common for Dalhyung to do this lol
-But it’s such a bad ending lol
-Really lol. Even though it’s different, it’s so different?
-If I had watched it without knowing, it would have been the worst ending ever lol
Rather, thanks to that chat, D’Artagnan was able to regain his composure.
“Guys, what else is there? Okay! Then let’s skip the staff roll for now!”
When he returned to the main menu, it was as he had expected. The newly appeared guide introduced the hidden Chapter 5 and its requirements.
“Oh, right! It doesn’t make sense if it ends like this! There’s a twist like in the first part! And the convenience is great too? Ahem, Cap Company developers? You believed in it?”
-Oh my gosh lol change of position lol
-Suddenly a video letter with a different vibe ㅋㅋㅋ
-???: Did you write this as a story? (What you actually said)
-PlantWiki/D’Artagnan/Controversy
-Look at our brother’s reaction, lol
-Seriously lol I didn’t sleep to watch this lol
-Wow! Jokojoko!
Everyone couldn’t hide their laughter at the softened atmosphere. But soon D’Artagnan checked the time and rolled his eyes.
“Oh, but the timing is a bit vague… Can we run to the true ending today? What do you think, guys? Wouldn’t it be better to just rush through tomorrow?”
There was no reason for him to push himself too hard.
‘Purple-nim would have done it anyway, and judging from the ending, it seems like everyone knows the general idea…’
D’Artagnan knew what viewers wanted from their shows.
The most important thing is his reaction.
‘I think it’s because I’ve tried too many times, but I feel a little bit less motivated…’
In order to show honest and unvarnished reactions, it was important to avoid spoilers, but managing one’s condition was also key.
And the viewers also knew its importance as they watched him.
-No no no no no no no no
-Please go and see how the bad ending changes ㅠㅠ
-Really lol I have to see this right away somehow!
-Hyung, I think it’ll be over soon since we surprisingly rescued a lot of survivors?
-It’s not a second time, but a chapter replay, so I don’t think it’ll take long lol
But even those viewers urged the show to continue. D’Artagnan’s eyes grew wide and he asked.
“No, what is it? What the hell is coming out? Is it okay for me not to expect anything?”
Viewers didn’t hesitate to ask that question, as did D’Artagnan’s long broadcasting career.
-ㅇㅇ In addition, only up to chapter 5!
-Oh right lol That would be awesome too
-Wow lol I can’t stand it lol
-Just imagining it gives me dopamine ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
-Ah haha I can’t say anything because it’s a spoiler haha
-No matter what I think, it’s going to be more than that lol
-Hyung? Even if you can’t do King’s Perk, you have to do First Reaction!
-Seriously lol This guy is also invincible lol
Because they also had considerable viewing experience.
