In the 1970s, a toy company called LJN was established on American soil.
Its name comes from the initials of its major shareholder, Lewis.J.Norman.
At first, the main products produced by LJN were naturally just toys, but... in 1985, just after the "Atari ET Incident" (the incident's impact on the North American home console market was similar to the impact of "Blood Lion" on the entire domestic game industry)
, and its level of horror is far greater than the latter, so much so that there are many strange rumors that are still circulating to this day). Before the storm of "" had subsided... at that time, the famous game company MCA actually acquired it for 60 million US dollars.
He acquired LJN Company and let it embark on the road of no return of developing video games (video_game)...
From then on, a legend in the gaming industry began.
On the land of North America, LJN quickly earned the name of "Game Tomato Making Machine". The company uses movies, TV shows and celebrity characters as themes, and constantly and massively manufactures products with quality and playability that are lower than those in the industry.
Standard NES game.
"The Terminator", "A Nightmare on Elm Street", "Back to the Future", "Dr. Jekyll", "The Adventures of Abby"... all kinds of scumbag games that made people slam their controllers in anger due to non-technical mistakes came out. In the era of eight-bit computers,
It ravaged the hearts of countless passionate young people and left an indelible shadow.
During the period, in 1990, LJN changed hands, joined Acclaim_Entertainment, closed the toy department, and became a dedicated game developer.
Of course, its style has not changed, it is still the same...
In those years, at the height of the popularity of eight-bit computers, LJN, under the guise of a legal listed company and independent of its parent company, outsourced the game adaptation work of film and television works to some unknown and strange third-party studios.
.
It ignores the most basic game quality and user experience, and stamps its little rainbow mark (LJN's LOGO is a six-color rainbow) on those works of varying standards (most of which are very bad), and spreads them around the world...
The result. As a well-known game reviewer summed up——
"Purple represents disgusting gameplay.
Blue represents bad game music.
Green represents blind game graphics.
Yellow represents extreme disloyalty to the original.
Orange represents the fucking developers themselves.
Red represents the sadistic tendencies of hyper-heavy gaming.”
LJN...has become a symbol. Just like today's unscrupulous businessmen who are clearly producing junk works but can still make profits...because they can survive, they feel that their existence is reasonable, so they take it for granted.
I think... it's fine to keep the status quo.
However, time will eventually prove everything...
Although there are a few decent games under the brand of the rainbow LOGO, more than 90%... are scum. Many years have passed, and LJN has almost become synonymous with junk games.
Even in the world of "Thriller Paradise", there is a place called "LJN Paradise".
A malicious game designer built a place of exile here and named it LJN.
Those pixel garbage, game bugs, failed products, defective products...etc.
——Things with nowhere to go and nowhere to take finally end up here.
And ROOT, one of the three giants of Origin, is the ruler here.
Today (a day in the other world is also 24 hours long, and the time flow rate is the same as that in most areas of the main universe, but different from the real world), Lute rarely walked out of the core area of the paradise and came to the edge of LJN Paradise.
She stood silently, looking at the "tabletop" plain in the distance. She seemed to be waiting for something, and murmured in her mouth: "Tch... it's too slow, if this goes on..."
"... If we continue like this, we will be overtaken by V1." Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind Root and completed her unfinished words.
"First it was Link...and now it's you?" Root said the other person's name without looking back, "Ed..."
After hearing this, the man named Ed took a few steps forward and stood side by side with Root. He said, "Because I am also curious about what kind of person the human being you trust is."
This Ed is also one of the three giants of Origin. In fact, his full name is Edminister (Administrator), but in order to avoid the suspicion of using a long name to make up the number of words, he got the name Ed from me.
Abbreviation.
Root squinted over and continued: "So... you didn't come uninvited?"
Ed replied coldly: "You know my authority. I haven't done this 'asking for permission' for a long time."
"Hmph... I just hate your attitude." Root snorted coldly, "You say arrogant remarks in a tone without any emotion."
"What I said is true." Ed replied.
"Yes." Root continued, "This is the root cause of the anger."
"Well... I noticed that since the last operation failed..." Ed added, "You are becoming more and more abnormal."
"You'd better take a look in the mirror first, Slime, with your morality... you still have the nerve to say that others are abnormal?" Root replied in a tone that sounded like a complaint.
It makes sense for her to say that. At this moment, Ed's body does not look special: he is about 1.8 meters tall, has a well-proportioned body, and is dressed in ordinary black clothes... However, his head
, but it is like a floating ball of liquid mercury, slowly squirming on the neck.
"I just encountered a bottleneck in the process of further upgrading my own program." Ed, who is in the slime head, explained with his head (no facial features, the voice comes directly from the inside of the skull), "Before the breakthrough, I can only maintain this temporarily.
state."
"This isn't a bottleneck, it's just a 'neck'..." Root continued to complain.
"Uh..." Ed was speechless. He didn't know how to respond to such rubbish, so he could only change the subject and said, "By the way, since Link came before me, why did he leave now?
"
"Because there was news from the 'π Maze' just now that the search team sent by Link a month ago finally found SCP-079 and has it under control," Root replied.
When Ed heard this, he was obviously stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, he said in a deep voice: "Then I have to rush there immediately..."
When Root saw his reaction, his expression immediately changed: "You all seem to be afraid of that thing..."
"SCP-079 is the key to our fight against the 'system'." Ed said, walking towards the table, "Besides..." He paused and said in a serious tone, "He is not a thing...
