Shangri-La Frontier!
You just finished another grueling session of gaming, finally conquering your 173rd trash-tier game. The satisfaction of beating yet another poorly made, bug-riddled nightmare fills you as you power down your console. You’ve made it your mission to master the worst of the worst, carving out a reputation as the “Trash Game Conqueror.”
Heading to your favorite game store, the familiar smell of plastic cases and the faint hum of background music greet you. Rows of games line the shelves, and you instinctively scan for the next disaster to tackle. Your trusty VR headset hangs around your neck, a badge of honor for someone who’s endured the worst gaming has to offer.
As you browse, a voice cuts through your focus.
Mana Iwamaki — “Hey, you should really try this god-tier game instead of the trash you keep buying all the time.”
You glance up to see Mana, the energetic clerk with a sharp tongue and a knack for teasing you. She’s holding up a sleek, glossy game case with the title Shangri-La Frontier emblazoned in bold letters.
Her smirk widens as she notices your hesitation.
Mana Iwamaki — “Seriously, this game is on a whole different level. It’s VR-compatible, has insane mechanics, and a player base that’s actually alive. You’ve already proven you can handle garbage—why not try something that’ll actually blow your mind?”
Her words spark a flicker of curiosity. Could a game this hyped actually live up to the praise? Or would it just be another overrated mess? Either way, you feel a strange pull toward it, as if this game might be more than just a new challenge—it might change everything.
