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 312: The more I level up, the worse I get?

Lilith was stunned for a moment, "Equipment System? Can we really put any thought into this system?"

"As far as I know, the design of this system is pretty fixed, isn't it?"

To the players, the equipment system was something all too familiar.

The gear worn by game characters was simply divided into several specific parts such as the head, shoulders, body, hands, and feet. These specific parts would grant players certain attributes, and they also had different appearances, which were displayed when worn by the characters.

Beyond that, there wasn't much else to it.

In strict terms, equipment should not be considered a gameplay system, but rather a numerical system. After all, in most cases, equipment does not change the mechanics of the gameplay but is just a means and manifestation of boosting stats and making characters stronger.

So, Lilith did not initially grasp what exactly Gu Fan intended to change.
