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 431: Puppet Transformation

Qiu Qinghong decided to test the puppet form's combat capabilities again.

He had a feeling that the human form might be a bit of a letdown. Although one would imagine it to be agile, cool, and strong, in reality, it was as fragile as paper.

According to Wei Chengjie, to prevent players from feeling too discouraged due to part destruction, like previously being decapitated by a monster's upward thrust, it seemed that the game had armor-like equipment such as helmets, meaning you could specifically stack the defensive power of certain body parts.

But this was just a demo, and those armors weren't available yet.

Moreover, Qiu Qinghong highly doubted whether there would actually be helmets in a game set in the Victorian Era.

Even if there were special armors to protect the head, they probably wouldn't be easy to obtain.

So if he couldn't beat them, why not join them? If puppets were strong, why not become a puppet himself?
