"..."

Looking at the flood of positive reviews and the continuously fooled, ignorant newbies, Wu Wei fell into deep contemplation.

It seemed society was quite sinister.

At least in the comments section of this game, the players who had played were as sinister as he was.

"Hmm,"

Wu Wei nodded solemnly:

"Thinking about it this way, I don't feel any guilt."

Hehe.

Through this game, Wu Wei also thoroughly understood the true nature of the masochistic tendencies within the gaming community.

Now, let's see who the real evil genius is!

Me! Game Designer! Ultimate Tormentor!

Streamers have a very powerful ability to make things popular!

Especially the influence of top-tier console game streamers like Ah Yin, which reached an exaggerated level!

Some viewers, after seeing the streamer's brain-dead moves, thought the streamer was deliberately acting foolish for the sake of the stream's effect.

Zhao Qiang was one of them.

"Tsk, needless to say, this is all about the stream's effect,"

Zhao Qiang, having watched many streams, considered himself knowledgeable about the streaming industry and confidently said to his girlfriend:

"If those streamers just breezed through, would the stream's popularity be high?"

"Oh—that makes sense too!"

His girlfriend suddenly understood, but then added:

"But I saw online that the reviews for this game all say it's very difficult."

"Pfft—"

Zhao Qiang waved his hand dismissively:

"They're just noobs who haven't played games before. What kind of skills do you expect them to have?"

If anyone else had said this mockingly, his girlfriend might have ignored it.

But when Zhao Qiang said it, she didn't argue.

Because she knew very well that her boyfriend had been playing games since he was a child.

He had cleared no less than eight hundred games, if not a thousand.

He had dabbled in all sorts of games and was a typical high-level player.

As they were talking, a ding sounded, and the game finished downloading.

"Just watch,"

Zhao Qiang smiled confidently at his girlfriend, his face full of self-assurance.

The screen opened, and the game began.

A little character, sitting blankly in a bucket, appeared on a flat rock. To its right was the tree that had troubled countless streamers.

Zhao Qiang wiggled his mouse, got accustomed to it slightly, and started moving towards the tree.

It had to be said, his gaming talent was indeed high.

Soon, Zhao Qiang reached the base of the tree.

This part, Zhao Qiang had specifically studied methods for when he played on the cloud.

He pointed to the tree on the screen as if showing off to his girlfriend:

"Many people get this part wrong, watch this."

Zhao Qiang, controlling the hammer, forcefully poked the ground!

Thwack!

With a crisp sound, the little character in the bucket was propelled by the recoil directly onto the second branch of the tree!

"Wow!"

His girlfriend exclaimed!

Her face was full of admiration!

"Honey, you're so amazing!"

Zhao Qiang is so good at this!

Hmph! Is that all?

What's so difficult about this?

"I knew it, those streamers are just faking it or they genuinely don't know how to play games."

As he said this, he poked his hammer towards the tree branch again, preparing to use the same trick.

Tap!

Thud!

Clang!

The little man hit the branch and was bounced back to the starting point.

Zhao Qiang: ...

"Heh, a small mistake, no worries, we'll try again."

A minor setback wouldn't affect his mood.

He tried once more.

Zhao Qiang sat on the second-level branch again.

"Here I go!"

Clang!

The expressionless, goofy little man once again sat down firmly on the ground.

Girlfriend: ...

"Hiss—Huh?"

After several failed attempts, Zhao Qiang's expression seemed to turn a bit serious.

He had discovered the problem.

Because the branch wasn't very long, no matter what angle he jumped from it, he would hit the treetop.

"Oh—I get it, I understand now!"

Zhao Qiang decided to change his approach:

"Since we can't jump, we'll just hook our way over."

As he spoke, he jiggled his mouse.

The little man inside also swung his hammer.

"This game is so simple, see, the hammer goes like this, then like this, and then you just swing it over."

Zhao Qiang gestured as he explained to his girlfriend.

"Mhm, mhm, mhm!"

His girlfriend listened to Zhao Qiang's plan and nodded in agreement.

"Watch this."

Zhao Qiang smiled slightly, feeling like he had found the way to get past this tree.

"First like this! Then like this! And then swing!"

Thud!

Clang.

Zhao Qiang:
