When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay

In addition, players also started a big discussion on "Is this a BUG or a core mechanism?"

In fact, this kind of debate has always existed, and just before the release of "Fire Thief", there was a big melee between the "BUG faction" and the "Mechanism faction" because of that interview.

The result was that the mechanism faction completely suppressed the BUG faction.

As for why this topic has become popular again?

The reason is very simple. The situation in "Fire Thief" is really like a BUG this time, more so than in any previous game!

If you have to say it is a mechanism, it would be too forceful! This mechanism doesn’t look like it could be designed by carbon-based organisms, does it?

How could a game require players to use such harsh conditions to activate the core gameplay?

Can you say it's a BUG? It greatly improves the fun of the game, and there are so many bugs that are closely related to each other. It really doesn’t seem like they can be discovered by chance.

In short, these bugs look man-made, but they don’t look like they are man-made.

In this way, the BUG faction resisted and launched a counterattack, which made a huge noise, but was quickly suppressed by the mechanism faction.

…

September 5th, Thursday at 6pm.

All the employees of Nitiantian Games gathered together to prepare for the meeting.

Gu Fan sat in the first place with a small notebook, but he was not the one attending the meeting.

The person who is going to hold a meeting for everyone this time is Lilith!

The content is to discuss the design plan for the next new game.

Lilith had previously conducted one-on-one interviews with all employees, but found nothing.

Obviously, all employees felt that this was a 100% natural bug, and there seemed to be no trace of man-made factors behind it, which made Lilith a little helpless and furious.

She was confused. Even if the angel was playing tricks, there would always be some clues left behind, right? Angels always have to exert their divine power through some medium in the human world, right?

Just like the devil must achieve his goals through contracts and other means.

It seems that Michael has indeed taken action himself, and the powerful enemy cannot be underestimated!

Of course, as a suspicious, fickle and moody hell demon, Lilith has not completely eliminated her suspicion of Gu Fan.

So, this time she decided to come to the company to discuss the new game with everyone.

There is nothing that can be done about it. There are only so many materials and inspirations in hell. Under the high-intensity output, Lilith's imagination is on the verge of exhaustion; she tried to ask Gu Fan for help, although it did have a certain effect, but The final result is always unsatisfactory.

Perhaps if other employees of Nitiantian Games work together this time, there will be different results?

With this attitude, Lilith participated in the development meeting of Nitian for the first time.

It's just that although the employees looked serious and serious on their faces, their attitude toward the investor became worse.

are you crazy! Why do you have to work overtime at night?

Originally, everyone was happily getting ready to get off work at five o'clock, but they were forced to stay for the meeting.

And I guess this meeting will be open until eight or nine o'clock.

All I can say is that this doesn’t quite fit the stereotype of stupid leaders in the workplace: they don’t come during the day, they don’t leave at night, they have meetings after get off work, and they do team building on the weekends.

Three words: Live breeding!

Of course, for the sake of Mr. Gu, everyone still didn't show it.

The meeting hadn't officially started yet. Gu Fan sat in the second seat next to Lilith with a small book in his hand and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Li, so Lao Lu didn't make things too difficult for you this time, right?"

Lilith glanced at him and also lowered her voice slightly: "That's not true.

"Although this game is an unprecedented failure in collecting negative emotions, it... also has some unexpected surprises."

"Oh?" Gu Fan was a little surprised.

In fact, Lilith was in a rather embarrassing situation during the previous "Destiny of Crouching Dragon". According to her own words, if the next game can no longer collect a large amount of negative emotions, something will probably happen.

That's why Lilith wants to directly harvest all the reputation accumulated by Nitian Game through "Fire Thief", completely transform it into negative emotions, and make a lot of money at once.

I just didn’t expect that it would backfire.

So far, "Fire Thief" has become the game that has received the least negative emotions among the Nitian games.

Because whether it is construction or adventure in the Kingdom of God, it can generate a lot of positive emotions!

Especially in the Kingdom of God adventure, each of the famous scenes in the slices can generate a lot of positive emotions in the players. They will not be too happy when they see their teammates die suddenly.

The only good news is that new players will still contribute negative emotions. Many players have been persuaded to quit before they had a chance to try the hidden mechanism. There are also lone wolf players who do not have a good experience playing this game.

So at present, this game can barely make the income from negative emotions slightly higher than the income from positive emotions, so that it will not become a complete loss-making business.

But no matter what, for Tianhu's start to turn into such a mess, this is absolutely unacceptable to Lilith.

Lucifer probably can't either.

So what is the so-called "unexpected surprise"?

Lilith said proudly: "Although the negative emotions collected by this game are very limited, it was unintentional and Laolu praised me in another direction!

"That is, this game slanders Angels, oh no, the offensive propaganda is quite successful!"

Gu Fan was a little surprised: "Oh?"

Lilith explained: "You also know that Heaven and Hell have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years, but due to various restrictions, we cannot directly attack the human world, so the influence of both sides in the human world is gradually weakening.

"But! If it can subtly influence human beings' views on angels and make them resist and rebel against angels, then it will also be very beneficial to my plan in hell!

"The depiction of angels in "Fire Thief" played this role, especially this angel... What do you call this? Oh yes, Cthulhu style. Lucifer was very satisfied with it and thought this game was worthy of It is called Hell’s benchmark product in terms of publicity.

“As long as we can continue to launch products like this, humans may naturally become close to demons and increasingly reject angels.

"So, although this game was a bit of a failure and didn't collect much negative emotions, Lao Lu still praised my performance and called on all the demons in hell to learn from me!"

Gu Fan thought for a moment: "Mr. Li, I'm not taking credit for myself. I seem to have come up with this idea, right?"

“I also provided all the creative ideas for monster images in Paradise.

"At that time, you also said that it was not good to smear the angels like this. If I hadn't persisted, maybe "The Fire Thief" wouldn't have had this effect at all?"

Lilith coughed twice: "Ahem, as I said before, I will remember all your contributions. If the Negative Emotion Collection Office rewards you based on your merits, I will definitely give you a top credit!"

Gu Fan didn't believe a single punctuation mark about this.

Mr. Li has been a professional painter for a hundred years, and will fall out whenever a new bug appears. This kind of drama has been played out countless times.

However, Gu Fan still needs to take credit. This is an attitude.

Just like the emperor tried hard to get good land and beautiful houses before Wang Jian went on an expedition, it could effectively reduce the leader's suspicion and improve his own safety.

The two of them chatted for a few words in low voices. Others were far away and couldn't hear what they were saying.

Everyone just judged based on their expressions, this must be another unreasonable request made by the stupid investor!

Poor me, Mr. Gu, I have a lot of talent, but I can only swallow my anger.

Unconsciously, everyone's hatred for this investor quietly increased.

Gu Fan looked at the time and announced that the meeting had officially begun.

He was still the one to host this meeting, and Lilith mainly listened in, mainly to get inspiration during everyone's brainstorming.

Of course, if Lilith feels that there is a deviation in the theme of the meeting, she will correct it immediately.

"The reason why we are holding this meeting today is mainly to hope that everyone can work together to think about the materials for the new game, and also to provide more inspiration for Mr. Li."

Gu Fan paused for a moment and looked at Lilith: "So Mr. Li, what is the theme of this new game?"

Lilith coughed twice: "It's not completely determined yet, but I want to ask you first, if you are in a chaotic and disorderly environment, such as a war environment, what do you hate or fear the most?"

Everyone looked at each other, this question was a little confusing.

After waiting for two minutes, when no one spoke, Gu Fan hurriedly smoothed things over: "Today's meeting will be a brainstorming session. Don't be restrained and just speak freely."

Su Tong thought for a while and first said: "What are you most afraid of not having supplies? After all, in such an environment, the primary goal should be to survive."

Zhao Haiquan: "Uh, a very vicious villain? For example, a warlord who takes pleasure in killing people?"

Feng Hui: “Do plagues, diseases and natural disasters count?”

Everyone put forward some conjectures, but obviously, these seemed not enough to satisfy Lilith.

Zhou Yang thought for a while: "I actually thought of a sentence, but it may not be appropriate to put it here, so I just said it casually.

“Do you know that there is a saying: ‘In troubled times, kill the Virgin first’?

"Of course, I don't think this sentence actually makes sense, and I don't really agree with it, but if you analyze it carefully, does it really represent the attitude of some people?"
