Microsoft has announced a special event that will take place on January 22 at 7:00 PM in Spain, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the launch of the first Xbox. This event, known as Xbox Developer Direct, has become a tradition that many followers of the video game industry eagerly anticipate. The company has confirmed that the titles Fable, Forza Horizon 6, and Beast of Reincarnation will be present, although surprises that could add more excitement to the program are not ruled out.

A show that promises surprises

The show is expected to last over 50 minutes, similar to previous editions. Throughout the event, Playground Games will play a prominent role, especially with the anticipated return of the fantasy saga Fable and the new installment of Forza Horizon, which promises to continue to surprise with its characteristic style and vast exploration of open worlds.

Tragic Live Streaming Incident: Chinese Tiktoker Drinks Himself to Death in Shocking Event

Dying for fifteen seconds of video, something that could only happen in 2023. And yet, here we are.

It’s surprising that at this stage of life, we still have to explain it, but… Drinking excessive alcohol, especially when it exceeds a certain level of alcohol content, is not good. Putting your life at risk for a TikTok challenge based on consuming such type of alcohol is even worse. Dying for fifteen seconds of video, something that could only happen in 2023. And yet, here we are.

A glass of wine doesn’t hurt

Let’s start by talking about Baijiu, a Chinese distilled liquor that has an alcohol content ranging from 28% to 65% and, despite being rarely consumed outside of China, outsells any other spirit: five billion liters annually, which is three times the total vodka consumption on the planet. It is a cheap yet influential liquor in China, where it is a tradition to serve the highest-quality Baijiu to judge someone’s loyalty before starting a business. According to Chinese culture, you only truly know someone when they are drunk.

However, this wasn’t the experience for Sanqiange, a Chinese influencer also known as “Brother Three Thousand,” who on May 16th participated in a live stream on Douyin, the country’s version of TikTok that cannot be downloaded in the rest of the world. During the livestream, Sanqiange took part in something called a “PK,” a dare game where he rapidly consumed at least four bottles of Baijiu, one after another.

The livestream ended at 1 a.m., and he went to sleep. Twelve hours later, when his family found him, he was dead. Sanqiange’s death is shocking because doing livestreams while drinking was not something new for him; it was part of his regular content, similar to the “King’s League” in Spain or going to Andorra.

The death of Wang, the person behind the name, has sparked a debate about what streamers can or cannot do and how to regulate an industry that is both lucrative and young. It highlights the challenges of navigating a multimillion-dollar industry that is still relatively new, and the mixture of these factors can result in unfortunate outcomes like this.

Un Tiktoker chino bebe hasta morir en un directo… y le descubren 12 horas después

Morirte por quince segundos de vídeo, algo que solo podía pasar en 2023. Y, sin embargo, aquí estamos.

Sorprende que a estas alturas de la vida tengamos que explicarlo, pero… Beber alcohol en exceso, sobre todo cuando pasa de cierta graduación, no es bueno. Poner en riesgo tu vida por un reto de TikTok basado en beber ese tipo de alcohol, aún peor. Morirte por quince segundos de vídeo, algo que solo podía pasar en 2023. Y, sin embargo, aquí estamos.

Una copita de vino no hace daño

Hablemos primero del Baijiu, un licor destilado chino que tiene una graduación de alcohol entre el 28% y el 65% y que, sin apenas consumirlo fuera de su país, vende más que cualquier otro espirituoso: cinco mil millones de litros anuales, o lo que es lo mismo, tres veces todo el vodka que se toma en el planeta. Se trata de un licor barato pero tan influyente allí que, antes de empezar un negocio, los miembros tienen como tradición servir Baijiu del más alto nivel para juzgar su lealtad: según la cultura china, solo conoces a la otra persona cuando está borracha.

Esa no es la experiencia de Sanqiange, un influencer chino también conocido como “Brother Three Thousand”, que el 16 de mayo participó en un directo en Douyin, el TikTok del país, en una versión de la app que no puede descargarse en el resto del mundo. Durante la retransmisión, Sanqiange participó en algo llamado PK, un juego de atrevimientos en el que se ventiló él solo al menos cuatro botellas de Baijiu, una detrás de otra.

El directo terminó a la una de la mañana y entonces se fue a dormir: doce horas después, cuando su familia se lo encontró, estaba muerto. La muerte de Sanqiange es sorprendente porque lo de hacer directos donde se chuzaba no eran una novedad, sino parte de su contenido habitual, como puede ser en España la King’s League o marcharse a Andorra.

La muerte de Wang, la persona tras el nombre, ya ha impulsado un debate sobre lo que pueden o no pueden hacer los streamers y cómo se puede regular una industria al mismo tiempo multimillonaria, novata y joven, tres adjetivos cuya mezcla solo puede dar como resultado cócteles como este.
