591 – Call of Duty (3)
The card game ‘Call of Duty’, which began to be sold at Musk’s suggestion, hit the jackpot as expected.
To be honest, as soon as it was released, it ran a tremendous sales procession, to the extent that it is not enough to even say that it was a jackpot.
To put it bluntly, it seems to show the peak of Zenon’s life. It meant that all who entered were sold out.
[Call of Duty will be born as a new culture! A game that can be enjoyed by children as well as adults.]
[It doesn’t matter if you don’t like the game. It is also worth collecting.]
[Call of Duty mixed with blood and steel as well as Zenon biography cards. Zenon’s works are gathered together.]
The ratings couldn’t have been better. It is a card pack that is only 50 copper at the price of this era and 500 won in won.
You can buy it with the money you have buried in your nose, and due to the nature of cards, rare cards can be sold at a higher price.
In particular, among the cards related to the life of Zenon, the grades are divided. From golden yellow, which can be picked up with an extremely rare probability, to normal white.
Even among the golden cards, there is one higher grade. If you draw this, it is virtually no different from winning the ‘lottery’ in your previous life.
That card was not ‘painted’ in gold, but ‘gilded’. Whoever you are, if you draw that card, your life will be reversed.
‘But if it’s released randomly, the value will go down again.’
Here, too, Musk’s tactics, not tactics, were invoked. Plated cards, or lottery cards, have to live on one rarity, so they only release 3 cards a month.
It’s a method that would come out of a chocolate factory movie in a previous life. Moreover, Zenon’s life has more cultural value than the chocolate factory.
Currently, the plated card is the Jin that consumed Diabols soul, that is, the ‘Jin: Diabols’ card.
I don’t know where even Musk will appear.
[trot! A plated card from Hadikhan Kingdom appears!]
[Jin picked by a child: Diabols card. Currently, a lot of people gather in front of the child’s house…]
However, after about two days, the Jin: Diabols card appeared in Hadikhan Kingdom.
The card appeared not in the Minerva Empire, which is famous for its vast territory, but in a small border kingdom.
Unsurprisingly, there was bound to be an uproar around the world. It is a gold-plated card that could disappear without the knowledge of mice and birds if there is no luck.
However, since the kid who received the good fortune of the gods pulled out the card, his eyes went wide. I made threats mixed with requests just in case.
[It doesn’t matter what culture you create with the cards. However, if you damage the person who drew the card, we will immediately stop selling the card.]
Thanks to this request, the children and their parents were not harmed.
To be honest, even from the perspective of Hadikhan Kingdom, it would have been chilling. The life of Zeno is not a national culture, but a global culture.
There are people all over the world who just look at one card and foam at the mouth. It must be difficult for a small, remote kingdom to handle.
Although this happened, it was simply because of the plated card, and not everyone was paying attention to Zenon’s biography alone.
Call of Duty, which used the card game of the previous life as a motif, was also slowly establishing itself.
[It’s a game that seems simple at first glance. However, you can catch a clear concept, or on the contrary, you can fight randomly.]
[You can see the US rolling Nazi Germany’s tanks. Conversely, Japan could use Soviet soldiers.]
[It is a game with a very high degree of freedom and looks simple, but the deeper you dig, the more various strategies and tactics are expected to emerge.]
Call of Duty, based on a card game from a previous life. Until now, most of the games were gambling games like poker, but Call of Duty is different.
It is a trading card game and entertainment where you create your own deck and play against opponents. Of course I’m halfway through the game.
The right to speak is terrifying, but the overall rules and balance are left to Musk. I heard they hired a scholar or something.
[Here comes the unique charm of blood and steel. Not only does the hidden effect appear when certain conditions are met, but the card called ‘Oil’ is important.]
[Whether to use oil to further increase the power of steel weapons, or to use infantry primarily.]
[In addition, you can use the Commander to set which class to raise the stats.]
[The same goes for the background ‘battlefield’ card. Battlegrounds related to the sea raise the navy’s stats and lower the army’s. The opposite is also true. On the other hand, the Air Force is a card that maintains its abilities everywhere…]
It included rules that were both simple and complex than expected. He said he hired a scholar, but it is a bonus that it was elaborately organized.
However, at the moment, packs related to Nazi Germany were Tier 1. I can’t help it because the development is unfolding.
Fortunately, the ‘Tiger tank’ is not shining. The Tiger tank is being evaluated as a nuisance complex.
Call of Duty’s stats will change according to the serialization of Blood and Steel, but the initial Tiger tank card appeared with ugly stats.
Considering that the Tiger tank appeared as ‘horror’ itself in the Allies from the very end of 1942, it is a little interesting phenomenon.
[Japan can wipe out all of them with a powerful navy if you roll your resources well. Thanks to militarism, the impact of the battlefield is also small. but······]
[Other countries have cooperative abilities, but Japan doesn’t. It seems to show the confrontation between the army and navy of the Japanese army.]
[A unique characteristic of the United States is democracy. However, there is a penalty of not being able to gather at the beginning, and the more you fight, the stronger you become…]
Each country also has its own characteristics. Nazi Germany has early empowering traits, and Soviets have mid-mid empowering traits.
America has a characteristic that the more it fights, the stronger it becomes. It is a characteristic that has a very strong back heart while aiming for a one-shot turnaround.
Other than that, there’s a lot, so let’s move on. I don’t play card games and I don’t intend to dig deep.
Above all, blood and steel are also worth collecting. for example······
[Cards of leaders and politicians have the same abilities. However, the grades are divided.]
[Hitler and Führer Hitler during the days of the Bohemian corporal. Lenin’s successor, Stalin, and the great marshal of steel, Stalin. Which one to choose?]
Next to the Zenon Biography card, there will be a leader card that satisfies the collection desire.
The Blood and Steel Leader card is also similar to the Zenon Biography card. The higher the grade, the different the color.
Musk told me that Führer Hitler is chosen with a higher probability than a gold-plated card.
Instead, for the sake of balance, the leader stats are the same. Otherwise, the balance will go to the arms of the gods or something.
As I said before, I was in the position of watching with my hands half off, so I only nodded. If you get the balance right, it’ll be a god game.
However, as you can see from the initial release, concerns arose. Call of Duty that kids can buy with their nose money.
Conversely, what if you have a lot of money?
[Some rich or noble people buy everything every time Call of Duty comes in…]
[In addition, a situation was detected in which all goods coming in from the factory were purchased in contact with the top.]
[I bought it with money, but the shameless answer to what’s the problem. A card game for children is turning into a dirty fight for adults.]
Within a week, rich people started buying cards at random.
The upper ranks benefit from having connections with nobles, and nobles benefit from being able to collect their favorite cards more easily.
The moment even a plated card appeared here, no matter how wealthy aristocrats were, they were able to obtain enormous wealth.
Mass purchases by those who monopolized wealth like this are also a problem, but in fact, this is expected to some extent.
However, even so, mass purchases cannot be prevented because it was possible to shoot more than that with the advent of the ‘Factory’.
So, just as he was thinking of blocking the lobby between the top and the nobility, a problem arose in an unexpected place.
[People who are aiming for a turnaround. If you draw cards well, you can earn more than your daily share.]
[The playground of gamblers is not a gambling hall, but a pack of cards. The excessively low price is rather arousing gambling.]
[Scholars conduct research with the expectation that a good card will be drawn next time…]
A card game conceived as a simple entertainment street. However, there were signs that this would degenerate into the notorious ‘Gacha system’ of the previous life.
People who invest all of their daily earnings in order to draw a good card and aim for a turnaround.
There was even a gamble in which the person who picked a pack of cards and drew the one with a higher rating won.
Gambling is an act that is strongly suppressed in the religious world, regardless of age or age.
People who are addicted to gambling are called souls possessed by the devil.
This was an incident that even Musk had not expected, so I had no choice but to seriously discuss it separately with me.
“Shall we decide which packs we can pull out per day?”
“If that happens, sales will drop severely. Maybe we should buy it with adults’ money, not kids’ money.”
“This isn’t easy.”
I don’t know anything else, but gambling is an issue that needs to be dealt with seriously. I don’t have the slightest desire to train a gambling addict.
Even more so, isn’t it an act of strong oppression in the religious world? I’ve heard that it hit the ban even on Earth.
Nevertheless, gambling addicts are steadily being nurtured. It means entertainment so addictive that even the gods shook their heads.
Of course, it is not that there is no formal gambling place like a ‘casino’. What the religious world is catching is an illegal gambling place where gold goes around in hundreds.
This was flowing in a similar form to the previous life, but the problem was the card pack itself.
“Does the act of opening a pack of cards count as gambling, or is it an ordinary purchase?”
“That’s right. It’s because of Isaac’s notice, if it was someone else, I would have foamed at the mouth and regulated it.”
“Huh, true…”
I crossed my arms and made a troubled expression. I emphasize again, but a problem arose in an unexpected place.
I just had the idea of adding a fun entertainment street. Moreover, I’m taking a step back from Call of Duty.
I was planning to publish only blood and steel continuously and check what updates were made, but it has already gone wrong.
‘If you don’t want to regulate card drawing as gambling…’
Blocking bulk purchases is an overkill. As I said before, thanks to the factory, even if it is sold out, it can be filled quickly.
“Well······”
“······”
While I was thinking about it, Musk was holding his hands together and making an anxious expression. It seems like I haven’t seen that face in a long time.
After thinking about it for a while, I suddenly came up with an ingenious idea.
An idea that could possibly increase the faith of the gods, but also keep them away from gambling.
“It would be better to tell us the probability first.”
“Probability?”
“Yes. The probability of being drawn for each grade. That alone will be enough.”
First of all, it is going to break the anticipation itself.
It’s not the psychology of ‘next time!’, but ‘A. f*ck. A lucky card. So that you can be annoyed by saying ‘thoo’.
And I’m going to have another drink here. First, after telling Musk to spread the odds to the press, I headed to the temple.
Eventually, I entered the private worship room and asked Luminus quietly.
‘Aren’t priests generally lucky? It depends on your faith.’
A formula that can be found in any medium.
[That’s true, but luck itself is difficult for us to predict…]
‘It seems to have some influence.’
[Isn’t that right…?]
I plan to use the Faith = Luck formula.
