_1 Chapter 1226: Chapter 1113: ‘Assassin’s Creed’, Alternate World Limited Edition?
_1 This result not only surprised the netizens, but also caught Lincoln off guard.
“Space City” sounded a bit ordinary to him.
However, upon examining the votes, Lincoln discovered that more than eighty percent of ordinary users had chosen this name, he began to comprehend why.
For the vast number of casual gamers, this huge space station was essentially another “Space Station-themed” city.
This name was well received by players who bought the game, played the main storyline, but did not intend to continue playing afterwards.
——Cloud Dream releases new games quite frequently, so a large number of gamers experience the storylines of new games and then return to playing their favorite ones.
The votes from these gamers also constituted a significant percentage.
Combining these two significant factors led to the plain and humble name “Space City”, eventually winning the final victory.
The moment the name was confirmed, the space station instantly updated online, and the confirmed name was official in the virtual world.
However, this change had a minor impact on the players for the time being.
For those who hadn’t bought the game, “Gravity” had been on sale for less than a month, and this public image was not yet available.
For the players who were already active at the space station, there wasn’t another large space station to distinguish it from.

The current state of space felt quite desolate.
Everyone piloted their mining ships through the hard flight in the void of space, without any means of space jumps such as “wormholes” or “space gates”.
The activity area was quite limited.
The player who had traveled the furthest distance so far had only reached Mars.
Mars was currently the best place for mining.
The areas farther away were a bit challenging for the mining ships, often requiring small teams equipped with more energy to reach Jupiter or even the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Saturn.
However, some players were bold enough to buy insurance, form a team, and attempt a relay-style deep-space voyage to see how far they could get.
Whether it was mining on Mars, exploring the sun, or venturing into deep space, they hadn’t discovered any other man-made facilities yet.
This was unsurprising.
After all, the requirements of the [Cradle Plan] had already been posted online, and everyone knew that they had to wait for the progress of [Cradle Plan] if they wanted to see a bustling universe.
The passionate workers in the space station were all amassing strength for the “new era” after the success of the [Cradle Plan] – mining, earning money, and building big ships!
Without a large ship of their own, how can they traverse the future era of space?!
Everyone was looking forward to the [Cradle Plan], and there were so many development teams participating in [Cradle Plan] that there was new news every day, never repeating.
The latest buzz was that France’s Blue Sky Studio released a suite of new game concept maps, twenty in total, just three days after successfully registering.
The concept maps were quite interesting.
As the main features of the concept maps were mostly buildings — grand Gothic cathedrals, magnificent Baroque palaces, layers of rooftops in the morning mist…

Only the last few concept maps revealed some game themes.
Those were squares crowded with people, towering guillotines, the French flag fluttering in the sky, and a white-cloaked assassin wielding a short sword moving against the flow of the crowd!
After releasing the concept maps, Blue Sky Studio openly stated: they were deeply inspired by the first two chapters of “Chang’an” and immediately had the idea of creating a “French Version of Chang’an”.
The entire studio has been preparing for this.
After the launch of [Virtual Paris], the developer asset library greatly expanded, which significantly lowered their development difficulty and gave them more energy to focus on game mechanics development.
Now that the [Cradle Plan] has emerged, they decided to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to improve this game as much as possible and present it to players.
The tentative name of the game is —
“Paris: The Revolution”!
Obviously, they followed the same naming format as “Chang’an” in naming the game.
With the release of this post, their popularity in Daxia and France skyrocketed, and the number of fans grew nearly tenfold in a day!
“Paris: The Revolution” has become one of the most anticipated Demos of the [Cradle Plan], with a swarm of players rushing to their comment section urging them to speed up the development.
Unlike the players’ reactions, Lincoln was full of question marks when he saw this news.
“Assassin’s Creed”??
Or is it an alternate world limited edition?
He kind of wanted to play it!
However, since the [Cradle Plan] had just begun, it wasn’t suitable for him to jump in too early, it would be better to wait until the Demo is released.
If the development team’s capabilities were sufficient and the game’s quality truly met the mark, offering some extra help wouldn’t hurt.
This was already the eighth game project he found intriguing since the announcement of the [Cradle Plan].
Even if only half of them would be successful and meet the developers’ proposed standards, it would still be worth celebrating!

In the successive days, Lincoln found himself enjoying an unusual respite.
The [Cradle Plan] was in full swing, and any issues the development teams faced were swiftly resolved by Cloud Dream’s tech team, so Lincoln wasn’t needed for troubleshooting.
The recent DLC for “Pokémon,” called [Night Parade of One Hundred Demons], had officially sold over two hundred million units and was maintaining its strong reputation.
It was also becoming more common to see players gallivanting around the globe with their [Eight Sides Headbands].
The first [Global Professional League] concluded perfectly, with Daxia’s professional players clinching two championship trophies.
As the professional players entered their off-season, Cloud Dream’s [Event Department] began planning to include more competitive games into the [Global Professional League].
The negotiations with the Persian Business Department officially concluded three days later.
They were indeed the anxious ones, especially when the three ten-meter-high mechs made their debut in Abu Dhabi.
—How could these billionaires pass up on such an extravagantly expensive, yet incredibly eye-catching toy like a mech?
Not only did they not pass up on it, they were a part of the first batch to place their orders!
The only reason the ten-meter versions arrived later than the six-meter ones was due to specification issues.
After videos of these three mech units dancing went viral on the internet, the Persian Business Department’s attitude changed overnight.
The negotiation progress skyrocketed and a preliminary agreement was quickly reached.
Lincoln skimmed through it, found the concessions acceptable, and agreed.
[Virtual Babylon] was initially a part of a long-term plan, so starting it a bit earlier wasn’t a big deal.
The traditional attire became the default clothing of Persian users in the virtual world, but it can be changed.
The demand for additional game auditing was approved, but the request to shut off the public world was denied.
The rest were minor details, such as not allowing local users to enter other religious locations and so on…
This made the number of places in the world where Cloud Dream wasn’t welcome decrease by one.
In the end, only America remained.
—Canada was, once again, merely an added bonus.
Even the [Digital Life] project, which he thought would immediately get a response, surprisingly remained silent.
When he asked Henry, he said that they were still discussing.
Clearly, this matter had significant implications and would require a lengthy discussion.
However, to prevent the senior scholars from growing restless, the hibernation process had already jumpstarted.
But hibernation could now be automated, so Lincoln didn’t have to worry about it.
And so, during this time, he relished in a deep, uninterrupted rest.
Until he was abruptly awakened by a call from Samuel—
“Boss, we’ve encountered a somewhat tricky problem.”
“What happened?” Lincoln asked, still slightly disoriented.
“Someone in the scenic areas of ‘Earth OL’ is erecting giant nude statues that are a few dozen meters tall.”
“???” Lincoln was immediately wide awake, “What did you say?”
“Nude statues, a few dozen meters tall,” Samuel explained succinctly.
“Are the statues vulgar?
Why don’t we just censor them?” Lincoln was puzzled.
“Because they are replicas of [David] and [Venus].”
“David and Venus?” Lincoln was momentarily at a loss, “What about them?”
Samuel sighed, “Technically speaking, they are works of art.”
“?” Lincoln paused for a moment, “So art allows nudity?”
“According to the widely accepted norms…
Art does seem to be an exception to the rule against nudity…”
