I Regressed but the World Didn’t Fall Apart - I Regressed but the World Didn’t Fall Apart chapter 63

The World Didn’t End When I Returned -63-

063.

As evening approached, as if waiting, a video was uploaded on Lee Dohyuk’s YouTube channel.

[Hmm, first-ever full dive into life… is that so?]

[Video Length – 11:30]

The first thing that went up was the collaboration between Lee Do-hyuk and Ji-an, “It Kills Two,” a match-up.

The video that had been uploaded to the original BlackOrc’s YouTube received a message saying they would voluntarily take it down due to the news of Lee Do-hyuk opening his own channel.

Nevertheless, as it had already been uploaded once on BlackOrc’s YouTube with a similar content, the video was not that long, compressed to a shorter length.

The content of the video was slightly different from the original BlackOrc’s videos.

Through Lee Do-hyuk’s full dive history, stats, it showed he was a newbie, and at the same time, it was an introductory video filled with his insane physical abilities.

Given the vast world of YouTube, it was a way to briefly introduce Lee Do-hyuk to viewers who still didn’t know him, while also serving as a stepping stone to the next video.

[Viking Does Not Tolerate / Rise of Valhalla Episode 1]

[A Mysterious Master Appears in Alpah···? / Ultimate Fighter Episode 1]

That’s why, instead of uploading just one video, from the beginning, they also uploaded one Valhalla video and one Alpah video each.

Combining the first “It Kills Two” and the Valhalla video resulted in a total of three videos uploaded at once.

Even though the first video was short at 10 minutes, unlike the rest, all the other videos were over 40 minutes long.

[Kim Yoon-seong (Editor): Hyungnim.. It’s been whitewashed..]

[Kim Yoon-seong (Editor): (Tomorrow’s Jo emoticon)]

It was all thanks to Kim Yoon-seong staying up for several nights.

Of course, Lee Do-hyuk signed a contract with Kim Yoon-seong today.

This meant that Kim Yoon-seong had been preparing for Lee Do-hyuk’s video production even before the contract was finalized.

It turned out he was such a fan that he hadn’t missed a single one of Lee Do-hyuk’s broadcasts.

So, after hearing Ji-an’s request for the first time, he started production with the mindset that it didn’t matter if the contract fell through.

If he couldn’t become Lee Do-hyuk’s editor, he was thinking of getting permission for a fan tube to upload without generating revenue.

‘Well.. considering his editing skills, he might not have thought of failing from the start.’

Being the same age as Ji-an, Kim Yoon-seong was also in his twenties.

He was already a veteran Twerker for over six years.

It was said that Kim Yoon-seong was the one who suggested Ji-an try internet broadcasting.

Hence, he had a good sense of editing points that viewers would definitely like.

‘Not only editing, but also about broadcasting itself.’

[-Hyungnim, it’s actually very easy for a niche YouTube channel to turn into a failing tube]

Yesterday, Kim Yoon-seong mentioned the direction of the channel for the future.

A similar conversation had also taken place at BlackOrc.

Streamers who play a variety of games find it very difficult to grow on YouTube.

The reason lies in YouTube’s algorithm.

The algorithm is YouTube’s artificial intelligence that recommends appropriate videos to users.

It analyzes users’ viewing patterns to find videos they might be interested in and recommends them.

Therefore, for YouTubers, this algorithm is as important as the content of the videos.

[-But if you play a variety of games, forming that algorithm is difficult.]

[-There’s a saying. A famous streamer once said that, in YouTube terms, a variety gaming channel is like a gimbap heaven. But what works well on YouTube is not a gimbap heaven but a restaurant that only serves gimbap, or a tonkatsu restaurant that only serves tonkatsu.]

The algorithm is not formed by just one or two videos.

If it’s League of Legends, it’s League of Legends, if it’s Overwatch, it’s Overwatch.

So, you had to keep playing one game and uploading videos related to that game.

Or at least choose a genre like horror games, RPGs, shooting games, and only upload videos of that genre.

But a variety game streamer is a ‘variety’ game streamer.

They don’t just focus on one game, but rather, those who make a living by rotating through various games.

That’s why they needed to approach YouTube a bit differently.

“So, even though most streamers stick to one main game and build their algorithm around that on YouTube.”

The method used by successful streamers on YouTube.

First, they concentrate on one game to develop an algorithm, gather YouTube subscribers based on that algorithm, and then gradually transition to other games.

[“Hmm, first full-dive in life… Is that so?”] – 1 minute ago

[(Real Mode Challenge) Vikings Don’t Endure / Rise of Valhalla Episode 1] – 1 minute ago

[A mysterious master of a new fighting game in Elphae…? / Ultimate Fighter Episode 1] – 1 minute ago

However, despite saying that, each video on Ido-hyuk’s YouTube channel featured different games.

There was a reason behind Kim Yoon-sung’s judgment.

[“But you’re different, hyung. You don’t have to do that. The people who are fans of you right now are not here to watch the game, they’re here to watch you.”]

Ido-hyuk had an irreplaceable uniqueness.

[“I’ve been a professional gamer for 10 years, you know? I’ve seen Inbang even before Full Dive, but there’s no character like you.”]

Many people are good at horror games.

But on the first day of Full Dive, no one can show such a performance.

Many people play the Valhalla Real Mode Challenge.

But no one can defeat Yorund in just 10 seconds.

There are no others who can showcase an assassination technique called “Viking-style Assassination.”

As for Ultimate Fighter… Well, there was no one as skilled in Elphae as Ido-hyuk to begin with.

Especially considering how he excelled from day one and two of Elphae.

And if we add how Ido-hyuk was currently performing in Iron Fist?

[“You’re not following the algorithm of some game, you’re creating an algorithm called ‘Ido-hyuk’ itself.”]

[“Maybe in a few months, just searching for ‘physical’ or ‘genius’ will bring up your videos, right?”]

As if to prove Kim Yoon-sung’s confidence-

-Wow

-Kya, finally

-This is awesome~

-Three videos, wow

-Wow, triple ace hahahaha all crushed hahahaha

Even though only a minute had passed since the upload, Ido-hyuk’s YouTube channel was flooded with hundreds of comments.

The number of views was also rapidly increasing by the second.

Ido-hyuk’s Twitch community.

“It seems like you picked a good editor?”

This one and the Blaup video have the same content, but this one is even more enjoyable.

-Yeah, they captured the key points well.

-Connecting separate scenes as if they were one continuous scene was really cool hahahaha

“Wow, Elphae criticism is so s*xy hahahaha”

Knowing that it’s from Sensei Ido-hyuk, rewatching the Hmjoa episode is really hilarious.

-hahahaha, did they really cut the video at the moment when Geomhee met Manhae?

[Inside Valhalla, Isaki Idohyeok ＜- If this guy isn’t just insane, I don’t know what is.]

First up, kekekekekeke

– Seriously, not delivering the final blow during the mission because of the mission, that’s just for real keke

– Keke This guy isn’t just different from us in terms of law, his way of thinking is different too

The talk of the town today was about the videos uploaded on YouTube.

The videos everyone had seen once through live broadcasts.

Not to mention those who rewatched them on replay.

But still, the buzz around YouTube was a testament to the editor’s exquisite editing skills.

In this way, the relationship between streamers and editors can be likened to that of ingredients and chefs.

Even with the same ingredients, the outcome varies greatly depending on who’s cooking.

Of course, in Isaki Idohyeok’s case, he could be seen as an exceptionally delicious S-class ingredient from the Do region, but with the right processing added to it, the taste became even more vibrant.

Ding- Ding-

However, the uproar in Isaki Idohyeok’s community over YouTube talk was short-lived.

The community, which had been continuously posting new threads until just a moment ago, suddenly fell silent.

– Wae

– Kyah

– Another surprise live broadcast??

– Thought it was Coral and have been waiting for an hour kekekeke

Despite clearly stating he would go live during the regular broadcast time yesterday.

Even though there was still about an hour left until 8 o’clock, Isaki Idohyeok unexpectedly started the broadcast.

[Current viewers: 814]

“Well.. Quite a few of you have joined. Welcome, everyone.”

– Said he’d start at 8!

– Almost lost half of my life

– Doha!

– I stopped watching something to come here

– Sir, are you addicted to surprise broadcasts now?

“Oh, uh. Can you hear me well? Actually, I was planning to go live at the scheduled time today, but I happened to come across a certain content and started early.”

– What kind of content?

– Oh, what?

– Dkdkgkdkg

Continuing with the opening comment, Isaki Idohyeok started the game.

Today’s first part is the same Iron Fist as yesterday.

“I’m not here to do content. As you all know, there aren’t many people I know in the Tworc community yet, right? So, I was catching up on the few acquaintances I have… and I stumbled upon something interesting.”

– ??

– What is it

From Noble mtl dot com

– No way…

– Ehekkekekke

– Why do I feel like I know it? hahahahaha

“Yes. That assumption is correct.”

Thud-thud du-du- thud-du-du-

◈Iron Fist◈

Thud-

While skipping the opening of Iron Fist, Ido Hyuk turned on Tworc, tuning in to someone’s broadcast.

[(TworcXEVO) Educational broadcast for participating streamers! / Anatol / 18,061 viewers]

**

“Anatol, long time no see!”

“Wow! It’s Anatol! This is my first time seeing you in person! Well, in virtual reality… anyway!”

“hahahaha, hello.”

Anatol greeted the streamers welcoming him with open arms.

Anatol, one of the three Korean representatives for the upcoming EVO tournament, had been living a life of practice, more practice, and even more practice in the recent days.

Training at the level of grinding bones and spilling blood to reach his goal of defeating Quabna that had been in his heart since the year before last!

He first met Quabna in the semi-finals of the world tournament a few years ago.

A monster rookie who overwhelmed all opponents with an overwhelming difference.

That was Quabna’s position back then.

On the other hand, Anatol was always a contender standing just behind the throne of the world’s best.

But what was the result?

Anatol, who had barely rebelled a few times, couldn’t seize a proper opportunity and ended up defeated.

At that time, he thought he had surprised the existing Iron Fist pros with his different play style.

However, witnessing Quabna improving with each match in that tournament, eventually clinching the victory, and facing him in the round of 16 at EVO a few weeks later.

Anatol realized that there truly existed a ‘monster’ in the world.

It had only been a few weeks since the last tournament, but he could see that the gap between him and Quabna had widened significantly.

‘But…’

The sense of distance he felt back then no longer tormented him.

Because Anatol had seen it.

Even though the game was different, in the same fighting game genre, Anatol felt someone’s distance from him much more significantly than he felt with Quabna in the past.

And he learned once again.

Even if his steps were slow, he could tread the path someone else had taken.

He could learn because he had seen it.

“It’s all thanks to Dohyuk.”

Lately, Anatol had been feeling it himself.

That his Iron Fist skills were improving day by day.

Truly, day by day, ever changing!

He might reach it now.

He wasn’t talking about Ido Hyuk.

He wasn’t talking about what he had said, but about Quabna, whom he had once met.

Of course, Anatole wasn’t sitting still back then, so he must have developed more than when he met him in the EVO top 16…

“I can also improve further!”

There was still time before EVO took place.

Even if Anatole now didn’t know, the Anatole at the moment it happened… perhaps he didn’t know.

These days, he’s progressing day by day!

“…As long as I don’t run into Dohyuk.”

If he keeps winning, eventually they’ll have to face each other, but even so, it would be better if it happened as late as possible.

It was a foregone conclusion that Dohyuk would come to EVO through the upcoming Tworke X EVO boat competition.

Anyway…

“I was so disappointed in the last competition. I was rooting for you!”

“Yeah, yeah. Really.”

“Ha ha, is that so? I’ll make sure to do well this time, so please cheer for me.”

“Of course!”

An event held by the team.

It was an event where pro gamers gave Iron Fist lessons to streamers participating in an upcoming streamer competition.

Anatole, who said he would participate in what was originally supposed to be handled by the youngest member of the team.

“I need to take a break too!”

Just because I’m a pro gamer, do I have to walk the path of constant training every day?

Sometimes you need to take a break, feel the wind, smell the flowers.

That’s how people can live as humans.

How much time had passed like that?

“Oh, you’re having trouble with the brain combo? Hm, how should I show you… Oh, I’ll play a ranked game first, would you like to watch?”

“Yes!”

“Yup!”

“Ha ha, great. Oh! Let me invite you. If you watch from the spectator mode, you can see from my point of view, which should help.”

And so Anatole started a ranked game.

“…?”

Before long, his eyes widened.

At that moment, a surprised reaction came through the spectator voice.

[-Huh? Isn’t that him? That streamer guy?]

[-It’s Dohyuk! I’m close with Chu!]

…Meeting this person here?

“Wow, what a coincidence.”

Dohyuk said as he shook hands with Anatole.
