"Holy crap..."
A sigh involuntarily escaped Zhou Liye's lips.
—Chief Engineer Ming is truly a devil incarnate!! It's toxic, isn't it? Every time he plays the Blue Star game, he cries; he can't stop the tears from flowing…
—This is even worse! He cried so much that he didn't even realize he had been crying for so long in front of thousands of viewers in the live stream.
His eyes were so swollen and painful, but he was completely oblivious, immersed in the story.
No, he couldn't believe he was the only one suffering like this!
Zhou Liye returned to the black screen of the live stream and scrolled up to read the viewers' comments.
He was so focused on the game that he barely had time to look at the comments.
Now let's take a look—
When I saw the piece of paper in Bruno's arms, I cried.
My tears are worthless, waaaaaah!
[Thrilling! Magnificent!]
[I'm thirty years old, 1.9 meters tall, and weigh 200 pounds, and I'm crying louder than a young lady!]
[Damn, are these monsters on Earth even capable of anything?]
[On my way home from get off work, I was levitating and caught a glimpse of a live stream. I ended up crying so hard that I alerted the AI assistant, which is now taking me to the hospital...]
[It burst into tears with a single bark! I want to go back to studying physics!]
That's right, he knew everyone was like that!
Zhou Liye sighed and wiped his nose—his nose was stinging again from reading the comments.
He tossed and turned in bed, his mind still replaying the plot of "The Way of the Assassin," and Odin's lonely shadow...
He suddenly turned on his phone and changed his personal account signature.
—【No regrets about being born on Earth!】
After making the changes, Zhou Liye smiled contentedly and closed her eyes to sleep again.
...When he went to work the next day, he found that several of his colleagues had slightly swollen eyes, but that's another story.
In fact, the plot of "The Way of the Assassin" has been discussed enough in the past few days.
Players have gradually reached the ending, either by watching videos of themselves completing the game or by being spoiled by the ending.
The game's powerful emotional impact makes almost everyone tear up at least once or twice.
So, it's already been flooded with posts on social media!
The hashtags #Assassin'sWay# and #Bluebell# topped the monthly trending list, followed by a long list of NPC names: #PhantomOdin#, #Galileo#, #Bruno#, #Copernicus#...
Even NPCs are trending on social media, which is really baffling to people who don't play games.
The earliest gaming websites to review the game's storyline couldn't help but talk at length about "Assassin's Way," with many reviews turning into short essays of over two thousand words.
Editors are human too; they really couldn't resist!
VR Gamer gave it a score of 98/100, with a perfect score for the story.
PolyDrake gave it a score of 10/10, and wrote in the strengths section:
Novel Parkour System
Exhilarating battles
A magnificent and epic plot
Extensive Explorable Map
GameBlog is known for its critical approach, but this time it was no exception. When giving its overall review, it used the word "perfect" for the first time.
Chapter 155 A Cloud of Sorrow
Of course, besides Zhou Liye, there are also many people streaming "The Way of the Assassin" on live streaming platforms.
That's how the internet age works; when something becomes popular, everyone rushes to it, creating a massive frenzy.
Most mainstream streamers, like Zhou Liye, honestly experience the storyline. Some focus on commentary, while others advocate for an immersive experience...
Of course, some people emphasize their technical skills as a selling point.
A certain tech-savvy streamer, nicknamed "Erqikai," began his experience of attacking the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicking the Beihai Kindergarten.
That's right, he chose a double enemy, making himself an enemy of the world!
He spent a long time researching before he realized that he needed to disrupt certain plot points to begin this hidden route.
At the beginning, many viewers were furious when they saw him stab Copernicus to death. Many people left the live stream in anger and went to social media to scold him.
After all, the game's storyline is so compelling that no one can bear to see a great man die at the hands of others.
However, as time went on, the streamer eventually deviated from the main storyline and was no longer required to do such heinous things.
The popularity of the live stream gradually increased, because who doesn't love watching the protagonist dominate and invincible?
