When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 592 I Resigned
Lilith nodded: "Alright, let's prepare thoroughly before going to the Liver Emperor to question him and see how he can argue!"

After saying that, she looked at the computer screen in front of Gu Fan carefully, ready to start overclocking her brain.

Just as Gu Fan was about to speak, Lilith seemed to have thought of something and said, "Wait!"

Gu Fan was inexplicably nervous: "What's wrong, Ms. Li?"

Lilith suggested, "How about this, let's rehearse it first. Suppose you are the hard-working person now, and I am the one who is in charge of questioning.

"You try to find a way to argue, and when you are finally speechless, I am almost ready.

"Then I'll question the Liver Emperor and make him convinced!"

Gu Fan raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this inappropriate, President Li? I have never been a traitor, so I don't have the experience of making excuses."

Lilith's face darkened. "That's enough. Don't make me mad! Just make excuses if I ask you to. Why are you talking so much?"

Gu Fan nodded: "Okay, then I'll state in advance that I'm just trying to figure out what the Liver Emperor would say. This has nothing to do with my own thoughts."

Lilith waved her hands impatiently: "I know, I know.

"Okay, first question!
"You could have completely omitted the special skills of the previous heroes in the plot. Why did you add it?"

Gu Fan flipped through the design draft and said, "Boss Li, this is what you requested.

“You think that ‘cutting down the rich systems of the previous game into a simple elemental reaction system’ can collect players’ negative emotions well, and during the test, this idea was indeed verified.

“So, in order to prevent players from forgetting this after a while, you decide to let players revisit the rich systems of the previous game in the middle and late stages of the plot, and then ban them after the players have simply had a great time, so that you can earn an extra wave of negative emotions.

"From the results, your plan was successful."

Lilith's face darkened: "But my request is that this ability must be taken back after the plot is over! Why hasn't it been taken back?"

Gu Fan explained: "Because this retraction mechanism was originally determined based on the third stage transition.

“The player used a special method to kill the boss instantly by creating overflowing damage in the first stage, causing the game mechanism to skip the second and third stages, and then the recycling mechanism did not work properly.

“It became what it is now.”

Lilith became even angrier: “But you obviously have many ways to avoid this kind of stupid bug!

“For example, you can separate the boss’s health into three stages! Or you can lock the boss’ health immediately after it takes a certain amount of damage!

“The simplest way is not to use the third stage settlement as the node to disable this function, but to disable it directly as soon as the character leaves the plot scene!
“Isn’t this a good solution to this problem?”

Gu Fan, who was playing the role of the hardworking man, was speechless for a moment: "Well... yes.

“I didn’t think of that at the time.”

Lilith was instantly furious: "Don't treat me like an idiot! You've come up with such a lame excuse!"

Gu Fan spread his hands and said, "Boss Li, I am just playing the role of a hard worker. I really can't think of any explanation for this situation."

Lilith calmed down a little and said, “Okay, then I’ll ask you again.

"Why do the lava blocks on the ground cause excessive damage to the Queen of Domination? And why can players grab these blocks? Also, why does the whole process of switching between the two bosses take several seconds!

"If these two bosses were switched instantly, there wouldn't be this problem!"

Gu Fan coughed twice and reluctantly explained: "According to the way our program is written, the lava rocks on the ground have a strong fire effect, which will react with the ice rain in the scene to melt.

“In this way, these stones on the ground cannot be grabbed and become traps. Players will lose health at the speed of light when they step on them, which increases the difficulty of the battle and is also more conducive to collecting players’ negative emotions.

“But… the stone in the strong fire state and the stone in the no fire state are essentially two different props.

"The two features of 'no prompt for selection' and 'bottom layer cannot be selected' happened to be developed by different programmers. Apparently the latter feature was accidentally omitted during planning, so the programmer did not develop it.

“And when we tested it, it just didn’t show up.

“As for the time required to switch between bosses… isn’t this for better visual expression?

"When the Queen of Domination appears, the surrounding environment will gradually change from blazingly hot to extremely cold. Ice rain will begin to fall from the sky, and the Queen of Domination's body will gradually appear in the ice...

“This process must be presented in a few seconds to suit the boss’s style.

"Otherwise, it would be a bit too weird if the monsters just respawned with a 'bang'."

The corners of Lilith's mouth twitched slightly, and she had entered a highly red-hot state.

"Then you can make the boss invincible for a few seconds when he appears!"

Gu Fan was speechless for a moment: "This... is indeed the case.

“However, locking blood is still too forced and not smooth enough.

"Also, the boss's health was set very high from the beginning, so it was unlikely that he would be killed instantly by players, so we didn't think of making such a restriction."

Lilith's face darkened: "I just didn't expect it again!

“Every time it’s just that little bit off, something just wasn’t expected here, something just wasn’t expected there, and then all of them came together to create such a serious bug!

“Even the players don’t think this is a bug, they think it’s intentional!

"Tell me! How else can you quibble!" Gu Fan had nothing to say, so he had to spread his hands: "What else can I say? I didn't expect it."

Lilith snorted coldly: "Okay, that's fine.

"Anyway, I have already figured it out in my mind. There is definitely something wrong with Liver Emperor. It is 100% or even 90% that there is something wrong with him!"

Gu Fan could only nod: "Boss Li is wise!"

He really couldn't find any good excuse, and even if he could think of it, it wouldn't be appropriate to use it at this time.

I can only agree with Lilith for now. What will happen next depends on whether the hard-working person has thought of other excuses in advance.

Lilith instantly entered combat mode: "Let's go, Gu Fan! Let's go find the Liver Emperor and ask for justice!"

For a long time before, Lilith was listless and rarely appeared.

The reason is simple. Endless Fantasy Legend 2 keeps exploding, and the negative emotions collected keep decreasing, giving Lilith a new critical hit every time.

But there haven't been any bugs yet.

This is quite uncomfortable.

In Lilith's opinion, every failure of "Endless Fantasy Tales 2" basically has nothing to do with the programmers, but only with her original design.

Whether it is the card pool, the plot, or other messy things, the root cause is that her original design was not thoughtful.

She really couldn't get rid of this blame at all and could only bear it silently.

How can this not be depressing?
Lilith was originally in despair, thinking that "Endless Fantasy Tales 2" would be the first game without any bugs, but it was ultimately a miserable failure.

This made her completely question herself.

Fortunately, the bug finally appeared now, and it was such an obvious and stupid bug that her anger instantly found an outlet.

Now I can go to the liver emperor and ask for punishment openly!

Lilith took Gu Fan with her and rushed to the villa where the Liver Emperor was.

When I entered the villa, I found that the liver emperor was sitting in the living room, watching TV leisurely.

"Liver Emperor!"

Lilith called out his name and Gan Di quickly stood up: "Boss Li, what brings you here? Please take a seat."

"I won't sit down! I came here to ask you what the latest bug in Endless Fantasy Tales 2 is all about!

"Players can bring the Brave Mode from the previous game to the big world. How did such a serious bug appear?"

Lilith glared at the Liver Emperor menacingly.

At this moment, she was quickly thinking about the "reconciliation" with Gu Fan in her mind. No matter what excuses the Liver Emperor used, she was confident that she could find the perfect solution to completely defeat the Liver Emperor's defense.

The Liver Emperor sighed: "Hey, President Li, blame me.

"I did not expect."

Lilith was stunned. How come they were almost at the "I didn't expect that" stage?

Normally, shouldn't you analyze the underlying code first, then look for design loopholes, then play some word games, and finally, when you can't find any other reasons, use "I didn't expect it" as an excuse?
what's wrong with you!

Are all the previous steps omitted?
This caused Lilith's brain to short-circuit, but she quickly said angrily: "You didn't think of such a simple thing, do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I would believe it?"

The Liver Emperor spread his hands and said, "Boss Li, there is nothing I can do if you don't believe me.

“I’m a layman, not a professional game designer!
"As a stranger who was forced to make a living, is it strange that I made some low-level mistakes and omissions while making the game?
“It would be abnormal if he didn’t show up, right?
"When your company invited me to come, I declined again and again, saying that my ability was not enough to be the chief planner. What did your company say?

“They told me to just go for it and if anything went wrong, it wouldn’t be my responsibility as a rookie.

"I took that seriously!"

Lilith was speechless for a moment: "You... But there is a fundamental difference between lack of ability and deliberate sabotage!"

The player was very calm: "I didn't do anything to sabotage it on purpose. Judging from the results, doesn't the appearance of this bug improve the players' gaming experience? How can this be considered sabotage?"

The corner of Lilith's mouth twitched slightly, and at this moment, the words "I did it on purpose, so what" seemed to be written on the face of the Liver Emperor. He was so arrogant.

However, just as she was about to continue her outburst, she saw the hard-working developer casually pull out a document from under the coffee table: "Hey, of course I also know that if there are bugs in the game, I, as the chief planner, am also to blame.

"So I completed the resignation procedures yesterday. In short, I am no longer the chief planner of the Against the Heaven game."

Lilith froze. "Who approved it?"

The Liver Emperor coughed twice and said, "Boss Li, I need to popularize some legal knowledge for you. Workers do not need anyone's approval to resign. As long as they notify the employer in writing 30 days in advance, the labor contract can be terminated.

“So your company’s human resources department also knew that it was useless to force me to stay. After confirming that I was determined, they helped me complete the resignation procedures.

"Anyway, I have nothing to do with the Anti-Heaven game anymore."
