01痛点与机会
痛点
Fans search 'gears of war e day' for canonical lore but find fragmented, outdated, or fan-made content violating Microsoft’s IP policies.
为什么是现在

- AI-extracted timeline from official sources (press kits, interviews, wikis)
- Interactive map built from geotagged canon locations (e.g., Jacinto City coordinates)
- Automated citation engine linking every fact to Microsoft-published URLs
