A Lie Has Become Reality

33 – Aetherna Hunter (3)

Kim Seong-woo’s YouTube channel opening was a big topic for gamers to know.

Opening a YouTube channel of a 3rd generation conglomerate who is more famous than most celebrities.

In a capitalist society, the daily life of chaebols is itself a good subject to draw public attention to.

Some for vicarious satisfaction, others for motivation, or just to satisfy curiosity.

Whatever the reason, if you have heard the name Kim Seong-woo at least once, he deserves enough attention.

“Wow, you already have a million subscribers?”

I am also one of those people, and as soon as I heard the news of Seongwoo Kim’s channel opening, I pressed the subscribe button.

Because I was curious about what kind of content Sungwoo Kim planned.

I was curious about other people’s reactions, so I checked the comments on the first video.

– 1 Million subscribers in 5 days…… It’s a walking giant.

-Isn’t this the highest record among ordinary people? Seeing a million for the first time in 5 days

There are many celebrities. Look for it and play your fingers

That’s why I wrote ‘among the general public’, you asshole hahahahaha

-What kind of video are you going to upload? Luxury Howl? Hocance?

No matter what you see, you will brag about it while posting things that cost money.

It’s so hard to live, but watching a video like that makes me really freak out hahahaha;;

Now the conglomerate even has YouTube lol It’s absurd, it’s just

ㄴ Why can’t chaebol do YouTube? I feel inferior hahahahaha

-Yapoomjwa YouTube Ipgal

“As expected, likes and dislikes are very divided.”

What purpose did Seongwoo Kim start YouTube?

Of course, the exact reason is still unknown.

Until now, Sungwoo Kim had never directly mentioned this.

“When will the next video be uploaded?”

I laughed and turned off YouTube and accessed the Etherna Hunter community.

As expected, the community was roaring with fire.

I clicked on the post at the top of the current most recommended recommendations.

[Title]

The developer, Ahoy, is the same pups as Patop (Five Tops).

[Text]

Where the heck did the saying that Ahoy was a victim come from?

The victims are probably our users, not Ahoy.

Is the Japanese server different from the Korean server? Japanese server Eterna is f*cking godgame?

Are you f*cking Japanese? Are you going to do a Japanese sub ethera ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

In the first place, when you see that only Korean subs are being run as sh*t, isn’t it normal to first think that they are looking at Koreans as dogs?

When Five Tops steals fan art without permission and hits marketing, when rankers neglect to abuse billing bugs, and when 6 months gap between live and update widens due to reckless management.

Ahoy, these 10 birds are just cubs who didn’t do anything and just squealed behind their backs.

From my point of view, Aho and Patop are all the same cubs.

In my future game life, I won’t even look at a game with two companies, Ahoy and Patop, even if dirt gets into my eyes.

Certificate the escape.

I’ve endured with my teeth clenched because the cash only costs close to 20 million won, but now I’m at my limit.

It was dirty together, let’s not see each other again.

This post is a condensation of the long-time user’s resentment.

As a user who has been playing Ether or Hunter for a long time, this is something I can sympathize with a hundred times.

[Comments] (+271)

-Ahoy, is it a part-time job to hear comments? Looking at the current game situation, I can’t shield Ahoy.

-I haven’t been dating for 3 months now hahahaha For reference, Ilseop is updated every week hahahaha

ㄴ I sucked up users’ money in the beginning, so now I’m going to follow the steps lol

N Ah, how come all the games that come with Helvando publishers are always like this?

ㄴFrom now on, Ahoy, you just have to believe in the patop ㅇㅇ

-Where did Ahoy, who said he was making games for otaku, go?

That’s a f*cking lack of responsibility. The users who like the games made by them believe only in them and hold on like this, seeing how they shut their mouths hahahahaha

This is correct ㅇㅇ

Users who were already exhausted did not have enough time to wait and believe that the developer would have an affair.

Besides, everyone has some expectations.

That this game will go through the process of ending service soon.

Then, what will happen to the efforts of the users who have been waiting and investing time and money in the hope that things will get better someday?

It’s futile and painful, but now it’s time to admit it. It’s time to let go of this game.

It was a car that was organizing such a complicated mind.

Diring-!

“What is it, Kim Seong-woo’s video is uploaded?”

At the same time, my mind was complicated, but I clicked on the video because I thought it was good.

But at the moment of the unexpected title, I thought I had clicked on the wrong channel, so I checked the title again.

“I will snipe the evil publisher Five Tops… ? What is this?”

When you say Five Tops, are you referring to the publisher you chewed and ripped to your heart’s content?

I clicked on the video like a ghost.

As meaningful music played, a middle-aged man in the video opened his mouth.

[ Hello, I am Hiroyuki Shimizu, CEO of Ahoi. ]

A man with a serious expression began to greet me in Japanese.

Thanks to the subtitles inserted at the bottom of the screen, there was no difficulty in understanding the meaning.

[ First of all, I would like to apologize to all Korean users who have believed in and played the Eterna series we developed. ]

Her man kept her head down and squeezed her words.

[ Exactly one year and three months ago, we signed a Korean exclusive publishing contract with Five Tops for Eterna X. ]

[ For us, who were aiming to enter the Korean server for Korean fans, the terms of the contract offered by Fivetops were a poisonous holy grail that was hard to refuse. ]

In a lonely voice, he recited the reason he signed a publishing contract with Five Tops.

[ My first conflict with Five Tops was sparked by the unauthorized theft of fan art. ]

[ As soon as we heard the news, we posted an apology to Five Tops and demanded compensation from the original author of the fan art. ]

Are you saying that Ahoy wasn’t just neglecting it?

His shocking remarks did not end here.

[ However, what came back was an absurd answer that said, ‘According to the terms of the contract, Fivetops has the sole right to operate the Korean server, so the developer Ahoy should not interfere’. ]

[ There was nothing we could do despite Five Tops’ continuing eccentricities. ]

[ We thought about canceling the contract dozens of times a day, but a small game developer like us couldn’t afford the huge penalty that would occur if we unilaterally notified the contract termination. ]

The voice and expression mixed with self-help made me indirectly feel how sincere he was.

At the same time, anger toward Five Tops was growing.

[ Fivetops blindfolded users to make a justification for ending the service, left a big scar on users’ hearts, and threw the game we made into the pit. ]

My head was pounding at the fact that Ahoy was a game developer tied to a vicious publishing contract.

[ I have been contacted by Mr. Kim Seong-woo. He can’t forgive Five Tops for trashing his favorite game. ]

[He said he would help, so let’s fight. ]

Now I understand why this video was uploaded to Sungwoo Kim’s YouTube channel.

Isn’t Kim Seong-woo one of the names that gamers can’t possibly know?

I thought that attempting to publicize it by posting it on Kim Seong-woo’s channel was truly a stroke of God.

[ Just in time, I recently received a call from Five Tops suggesting that Aetherna Hunter’s Korean server service be terminated. ]

[ Under the contract, Etherna Hunter’s server operation cost is borne at the rate of Five Tops 7 Ahoy 3. In other words, if you continue to operate the server, the damage on the Five Tops side will increase. ]

[ We will decline the offer to end the service. The damage on our side will be great, but I can’t bear to forgive Five Tops’ atrocities. ]

The man in the screen showed bloodshot eyes and clenched fists with both hands.

[ I’m not ashamed, but please ask the users. ]

[ Please log in to the game. Please do not do any billing and only log in. ]

[ More is better. We need the help of many people to the point where we need to expand the server. ]

Generally, publishers have responsibilities and obligations related to server operation.

The contract signed between Five Tops and Ahoy must have a similar character.

Ahoy is now shouting that he will risk his Five Tops and fall even if he is destroyed.

How great is the hatred towards Five Tops that such an action is possible?

I was somewhat moved by his sincerity.

Lastly, the video ended with only a tear and a word of apology to the users.

“Five Tops, these f*cking bastards… ….”

When he learned the whole story of the incident and Ahoy’s inner story, his anger surged up.

To release the anger that had nowhere to go, I reconnected to the Etherna Hunter community.

The Etherna Hunter community was literally devastated.

[ Five Tops These bastards were rare bastards. ]

[ Kim Seong-woo came to the mound. Aether and Hunter can also be resurrected like the Eocene. ]

[ Let’s open a general public channel for this. ]

[ 10 Ways Users Can f*ck Five Tops. ]

[ Seongwoo Kim Is he a rookie? Sungwoo Kim Is he a rookie? Sungwoo Kim Is he a rookie? Sungwoo Kim Is he a rookie? ]

When identification of peers became clear and goals were established, users finally came together as one.
