The video also showcases the cat's character skills to the adorable rhythm of the music.
"The kitty's here~"
"Meow meow meow~"
The character's sharp and elegant fighting style, cute and quirky music style, and playful voice acting, including the occasional cat meow, all contribute to the captivating charm.
"Go, canned goods, smash them!"
Pado threw down her weapon, and a huge portal appeared in the air.
Immediately afterwards, a giant cat squeezed out of the portal and then crashed down.
The scene is frozen.
Several assassins were sitting under the giant cat's butt.
Pado then flashed a "V" sign at the camera, perfectly showcasing her lively and cheerful personality.
"Hmm~ I'll take a short break and relax... I hope I won't get caught~"
"Meow~"
……
[The picture shows a cat (the watermark is worn out)] and...
Chapter 198: New Character Card Given Away for Free? Players Go Wild...
The video not only showcased the character's skills and appearance, but also gave players a general understanding of the catgirl's personality.
After the PV finished playing, the scene returned to Rita and Bronya.
The two of them could clearly see the comments on the screen.
"It seems everyone really likes this Sister Paddo!"
Rita chuckled softly: "Perceptive players should already know who this catgirl is, right?"
Although it wasn't explicitly stated in the PV, Pado's identity is still quite easy to guess through some subtle details.
Cat girl?
Honkai Impact 3 doesn't have any orc races or similar settings.
Characters with animal tails and ears are generally warriors who have incorporated Honkai Beast genes.
For example, Ying, one of the heroes, and the Arlene sisters.
This alone is enough to clearly identify the catgirl.
"That's right~ She's also a fusion warrior from a previous civilization, one of the Thirteen Heroes—Padofelis, whose inscription is [Empty Dream]."
Upon hearing this confirmed news, the players immediately became restless.
As a fusion warrior, its strength must be quite high.
Just look at snakes and you'll know.
However, at the same time as the "557" game, players who are short on cash are already struggling with their decision.
Young Master, Yura, Aunt Mei, Paddo, and two other new characters...
Which two should I choose to draw?
Upon seeing this, Rita couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
That smile was incredibly radiant.
Actually, there's no need to worry about not having enough crystals~
"Because in the new version, Honkai Impact 3rd will only release a gacha banner for this one character~"
"As long as you attend all events, you can reliably get this catgirl character card."
"For the rest, just plan your Primogems carefully and spend a few minutes each day participating in Genshin Impact events, and that'll be enough."
The moment these words were spoken, the live chat exploded.
Although catgirls are cute.
But... Aunt Mei's popularity is terrifying.
If only catgirl character cards are released... does that mean Aunt Mei won't appear in this version?
Isn't this just teasing people?
The screen was filled with endless wails of agony.
That's why Rita couldn't help but laugh.
"That's not the case~ Mei's character will also be released in the new version, along with the other two characters from [Honkai Impact 3rd]."
"only……"
At this point, Rita paused for a moment.
This brief pause sparked countless speculations in the player's mind.
Could it be that it's a grindable character?
No way... That's Mei, and she's Aunt Mei, who appears in such a lovable way.
Before they could speculate further, Rita finally revealed a piece of news that stunned everyone.
"Three character cards from Post-Honkai Odyssey, completely free!!"
These words stunned not only the players.
Other game developers were equally baffled.
Will miHoYo make money?
You think you can just give away such a popular character for free?
"Furthermore, it doesn't require much grinding; just follow the main storyline, and you can unlock it in just a few minutes!"
Rita's words were even more speechless.
This is practically free...
[66666, is this the vision MiHoYo has?]
[The boss is generous!]
[The boss is awesome!]
[MiHoYo, please allow me to bow down to you.]
There's no need, no need to send it like this... I'm afraid my conscience will bother me...
[Daddy!! Daddy!! Ahhh...]
……
Although the character's specific skills and information are still unknown, the mere mention of "free" is enough to make everyone ecstatic.
While they were overjoyed, their goodwill towards miHoYo also skyrocketed.
The entire screen was filled with bullet comments like "[MiHoYo is so great]".
As the comments scrolled on... they eventually turned into a remarkably consistent message of blessing—
Wishing miHoYo continued growth and success!
This situation left other game developers speechless.
Even Mo Li hadn't anticipated this.
In his mind, this was actually a very normal phenomenon...
After all, that's exactly what miHoYo does on Earth.
But he actually forgot a very important point—
This world is different from Earth.
The game development is really outdated.
Before miHoYo came out, players were almost all being exploited by Tencent and NetEase.
Let alone free characters.
There are no free games.
It's either a prepaid card system or a buy-out system.
Mo Li's initial idea was that a free operating model would be more profitable.
To his surprise, this model not only made money but also gained a large number of players and positive reviews...
Although many copycat card pool monetization methods have appeared on the market since miHoYo's emergence.
But those manufacturers didn't grasp the essence.
There's no compelling storyline, no likable characters; it's entirely driven by a pay-to-win marketing strategy.
