Chapter 158: Chapter 76: A Victory for the Players! Pubg Unbanned Across All Platforms! Pubg Live Streams Galore!_4

...

"Crack!"

Lu Long’s receiver slipped from his hand, falling onto the desk with a crisp sound.

He felt as though he had been dealt a massive blow, his face ashen as he slowly slumped to the ground without any strength, his gold-rimmed glasses slipping down to one side of his cheek, his eyes dull and lifeless.

Lu Long couldn’t understand no matter what.

He hadn’t even figured out who his opponent was yet.

How could he have lost so miserably.

"wdnmd! It’s back! It’s all back!"

The day Pubg was unbanned across all platforms, Eggplant logged on immediately, his face brimming with excited smiles: "Damn the frustration! I’ve been practicing hard all this time, today I’ll show you what a real sniper looks like!"

...

"Hold tight students, ready to take off~"

In Dasima’s live streaming room, a square-faced, silly goose stretched his hands to the sides, mimicking a plane taking off: "If I die on landing this round, say whatever you want, thanks to ’Forcefully Pull Apart Dasima’ for the airplane! Thanks, Forcefully Pull Apart!"

...

In Yin’s live streaming room.

"Morning meowing... no wait, you guys are asking me to stream, I can’t really play this thing... Okay, okay, I’ll stream! Just don’t call me a noob later."

...

In Little Tuantu’s live streaming room.

"Coming Coming~ Bros! Log on and start playing!"

...

On the very day that Pubg was unbanned, countless live streaming rooms of various sizes were as if avenging the ban, all of them updating their covers with pictures of PUBG.

The popularity of Pubg also reached an all-time high in FPS history today!

NAA forum, Pubg board was bustling like a festival.

For players, today wasn’t just the day that Pubg was broadcast again.

It was also an unprecedented, historic moment in Blue Star gaming history, where individuals banded together for the first time to fight against capital—and they won a great battle!

Netcom game, on the same day Pubg was unbanned, also issued a notice.

Apologizing to the vast number of players, and to the Number One Player Company, to Designer Ke Jin.

Claiming the company had made a series of wrong decisions due to internal conflicts, and made the punishment results public.

And repeatedly assured that such incidents would never happen again.

This announcement was directly made by the players of the NAA forum’s Pubg board into the board avatar, treating it like a treasure.

It was the first time in history that a major manufacturer had issued an announcement to apologize and admit their mistakes! It had to be preserved as a family heirloom, passed down to every future moderator.

What path the gaming industry would take in the future, the players gathered here didn’t know.

Whether similar situations would occur again, the players also didn’t know.

Even if a similar situation happened again, whether they could unite once more was unclear.

But one thing was for sure.

At least for today, at least for now.

They had achieved a brief freedom of choice.

No longer constrained by platforms and major manufacturers, they could play if they wanted to play, stream if they wanted to stream!

Countless players who had contributed money and effort in this ban incident gathered here, their live discussion groups continuously scrolling with /cheers emoji.

"To Little Clip, the first-generation leader!!"

"To Brother Zhang, the second-generation leader!!"

"To Teacher Mao, the third-generation leader!!"

"To all players who bravely fought against capital in this battle!! My friends, you are the true heroes!!"

"Lastly, to our beloved Designer Ke, we send our sincerest wishes!"

"Wishing Number One Player ever-increasing success in their endeavors!!!"

Occupying a small space of your time, approximately 2 Starting Point Coins, for a plot summary. The author has alotted only 500 words, which simply can’t contain it all.

Aside from the protagonist’s reaction, which is yet to be written, the rest of this storyline has concluded.

This storyline, from the initial announcements, to the game content, to the turning points, to the player reactions, and finally to the story’s end, is probably the largest arc written so far in this book, spanning over a dozen Chapters with a rhythm that feels quite well handled, each part balanced in proportion. I personally think if there’s any flaw, it might be that the cheating player showed up a bit too early; perhaps following a sequence of ’first write the game content, then the oppression, then the player uprising, and after allowing national streaming, wrap up with the cheating player’s god-like performance’ might have been more satisfying. But what’s written is written, so there’s no need for too many regrets.

Some readers have said my Chapters are too short before, covering a game in just two Chapters before moving on. The previous ones were all small games, describing core gameplay, player reactions, and the impact of the games. Usually, after adding a plot twist to stab the protagonist in the back, there isn’t much content left to write. If I were to write more game content, it could lead to aesthetic fatigue, which I try to avoid, and continue to do so diligently. If aesthetic fatigue does occur later, I hope readers won’t rush to abandon the book and will wait and see—it might just be a momentary lapse of inspiration, and the next game could have a brilliant idea that brings things back.

Switch to the author’s words.
