“The only fun in this game is honking the horn and listening to music. But the problem is, you can’t listen to the songs you want, you can’t even change the radio station. All you hear are some obscure, niche, or outdated songs, and you can’t even skip the unpleasant ones!”

“And what shocked me the most was the stroke of genius at the end of the game, where it actually mocked me with a line of subtitles! ‘Congratulations, you’ve successfully wasted 8 precious hours of your life!’”

“That’s right, this is a game that makes you reflect on life, and it really made me reflect on my life!”

“It made me realize just how precious my time is, and how much of a waste of time games can be!”

“If boredom could be rated, then out of a maximum score of 10, I’d give this game 100!”

“Of course, even a game like this isn’t perfect.”

“As the first hardcore player to finish the game (the leaderboard proves it), I strongly recommend the following features be added!”

“First, why does the game end when you reach the finish line? I strongly suggest that after reaching the end, you should be able to turn around and drive back, thus naturally creating an ‘endless mode’!”

“If you haven’t done at least ten round trips, how can you say you’ve conquered this game?!”

“In addition, I strongly suggest adding a multiplayer online feature, so other players can join the room, sit in the car and enjoy the scenery, or interact with the driver!”

“I hope the game’s developer can take my suggestions and update the game. That way, it’s sure to be a big hit!”

“……”

“Well, that’s the end of this episode of the roast show. The next 8 hours are the full gameplay recording. For those viewers who are bored out of their minds, why not try not fast-forwarding and watch the whole thing.”

“Trust me, after this, you’ll also gain some reflections on life!”

Eric Bennett dragged the video forward and found that the remaining 8 hours really were Mr. Clark’s full gameplay recording.

The comment section below was absolutely exploding, with viewers extremely enthusiastic.

“I watched the full 8 hours without fast-forwarding, and now I feel like I’m starting to ponder the meaning of life too…”

“Mr. Clark’s sacrifice is way too much, he’s really putting his life on the line for this!”

“Mr. Clark, stop it! Your hairline can’t take it anymore!”

“Does making a video now really require risking your life?!”

“I’ve already downloaded it. I believe I can find the meaning of life in the desert!”

“Hey, take me with you!”

“The full name of the game is ‘Lonely Desert Highway’. You can find it in the official game store. No need to thank me, I’m just that helpful!”

“Count me in +1”

“Let’s go, sightseeing group!”

……

Looking at the comments below the video, Eric Bennett was completely stunned.

There must be something wrong with this world!

I made such a crappy game, and yet a content creator actually used it as material, and the response is this enthusiastic?!

Although still confused, Eric Bennett more or less understood the cause and effect of the situation.

His game, by some stroke of bad luck, was discovered by this content creator who specializes in roasting games, Mr. Clark. Then Mr. Clark was struck by inspiration and made a roast video.

With Mr. Clark’s excellent script, wide audience, and meticulous editing skills, the video went viral!

Very soon, the video attracted a wave of “sightseers.” Many people wanted to see just how bad this game really was.

Most of them played for a bit and then stopped, since the game really was boring. But most people didn’t care about that one yuan, and didn’t even consider asking for a refund…

A few players even developed a sense of competition because of the leaderboard system, and some with ulterior motives even started spreading rumors???

Someone said that if you look into the desert in the fourth hour of playing, you’ll find a fun Easter egg!

Someone else said that if you beat the game three times in a row, you can unlock a hidden level!

There were even quite a few people in the comments asking if they could repost the video…

Eric Bennett realized that things might be getting out of hand.

This game… is it about to get popular?

Could it be… this game won’t lose money???

“This absolutely won’t do, I have to do something…”

Eric Bennett wasn’t going to sit and wait for doom—he had to save himself!

If this game really gets popular, Eric Bennett will lose everything!

Eric Bennett thought maybe the problem was with the game description he wrote.

It was too vague, which led to players misunderstanding!

He had to be honest with the players, had to persuade new players to stay away, and absolutely couldn’t let them spend any more money!

Chapter 8 Settlement!

But how should he persuade these players?

Eric Bennett was a nobody to begin with. Even if he revealed his identity and said he was the developer of “Lonely Desert Highway,” how could that news spread quickly?

After thinking it over, Eric Bennett decided it was best to write it directly on the game’s detail page on the official platform.
