Why the bug I wrote became a core gameplay mechanic?!

This book is also known as: "How Programmers Turn a Crappy Game into a Timeless Classic with a Single BUG" Recently, the president of Nitiandang, Gu Fan, once again fell from grace due to a minor bug in his new game. As a top-notch designer in the industry, all of the games designed by Gu Fan have very distinct characteristics: At first, players felt that these games were monotonous, dull, and purely revolting garbage. However, once players discovered a major bug, the gameplay underwent a drastic transformation, rendering them sleep-deprived and unable to quit! So, players once again launched a major debate over "whether this is actually a bug or a game mechanic." In response to this, Gu Fan clarified in an interview with all seriousness: "Hello everyone, I'm the game designer Gu Fan, but you can also call me by my English name: fan·gu (means rebel). "I want to reiterate firmly that these so-called 'core gameplays' were not part of our company's original design—they are bugs! It's just that we didn't fix them because the players liked them!"

Chapter 101: Brainstorming for the New Game (Three more updates, asking for monthly votes!)

Besides that, players have once again launched a grand debate over whether "this is a BUG or a core mechanic."

This argument has actually always existed, and right before the release of "Prometheus," it even sparked a major brawl between the "Bug Faction" and the "Mechanism Faction."

And the result was that the Mechanism Faction completely suppressed the Bug Faction.

As for why this topic has heated up again?

The reason is simple, the situation in "Prometheus" this time is really too similar to a BUG, more so than any previous game!

If you insist it's a mechanic, well, that just seems too forced! Does this kind of mechanic even look like it was designed by carbon-based life forms?

How could a game require players to activate core gameplay with such demanding conditions?

But to call it a BUG? It greatly enhances the enjoyment of the game, and there are so many BUGs, one linked to the other, it really doesn't seem like something you could stumble upon by luck.
