When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 349 is still a historical issue!

In the scene Wei Chengjie imagined, Mr. Gu was probably waving a feather fan, chatting and laughing, and everything was under control.

But in fact, there was chaos in Gu Fan's villa at this time.

Lilith was so angry that she went crazy in the living room. She walked around angrily and ate potato chips in big mouthfuls to calm herself down.

Gu Fan huddled in the corner of the sofa, silently using his laptop to look through the underlying code of the game to find out the cause of the bug.

Obviously, the problems that occurred in the two games this time were an extremely heavy blow to Lilith!
Wasn’t the situation originally very good?

The ratings of "Endless Fantasy Legend" have stabilized, so it should be safe, right?
The new version of "Shadow World" was criticized crazily, and the negative emotions contributed by players who quit the game were endless.

But in the blink of an eye, these two games had problems again. Many players who had quit the games returned. Not only did they no longer contribute negative emotions, but they also generated a lot of positive emotions!
This was totally unacceptable to Lilith!
At this moment, she urgently wanted to know what the cause of this bug was?
If Gu Fan couldn't give her a reasonable enough explanation, she had already made up her mind to lose her temper!

"Boss Li, I think... I have found out."

Seeing Gu Fan looking up, Lilith immediately stepped forward, put her hands on her waist, and tried to put on a condescending attitude to Gu Fan who was sitting on the sofa: "Tell me quickly! What's going on! Let's start with the 'Breaking Oath' talent!"

Obviously, the collapse of the new version of "Shadow World" is mainly due to this "Breaking Oath" talent.

If it weren't for this talent that converted elemental damage into arcane damage, then players wouldn't be able to amplify other damage through arcane conversion. All the outrageous plots that followed wouldn't have happened.

What's more, this "betrayal of oath" sounds very suspicious. It is obviously the mutual transformation of light and dark spells, how can it involve elements and arcane?

I'm afraid someone is playing tricks!

However, Gu Fan was very frank. He turned the laptop around and showed Lilith a few lines of code on the screen.

"Boss Li, strictly speaking... this should be considered a historical issue. It was an abandoned project in the original version of this game."

Lilith was stunned for a moment: "Waste, waste case?"

Of course she understood the so-called abandoned projects, which were nothing more than some designs that were originally wanted to be done but not completed.

There will be abandoned designs in any game. After all, there are almost no games in the world that can be completed 100% according to the original design plan.

Lilith looked at the computer screen doubtfully, but the codes looked like incomprehensible books and she couldn't understand them at all.

Only after Gu Fan explained it almost word for word could Lilith roughly understand it.

“Boss Li, you see, in the design of the original game, that is, “Demon World Conflict”, it was originally hoped that players would be able to freely choose talents and skills to create the BD they wanted.

“So, in order to further enrich the gameplay, we designed the talent ‘Breaking the Oath’.

“In the design of the original game, many of the attributes in this game are opposites, two sides of the same coin.

"For example, light and dark, elements and arcane, physics and magic, and so on."

Lilith frowned: "Wait a minute! I understand that light and darkness are two opposite sides, so why are elements and arcane also two opposite sides!" Gu Fan explained: "This... According to their original settings, elemental power is obtained in the process of communicating with nature, just like shamans and druids. They can have a certain physical quality. As long as they have strong faith, they can gain power; while arcane power depends on one's own wisdom. There is an essential difference between the two.

“So, when a wise man who communicates with nature gives up communicating with nature and turns to seek his own wisdom, he will gain arcane power.

“According to the original design, the talent ‘Breaking Oath’ has many different conversion methods, which is also to provide players with more choices and more possibilities.

"But due to the lack of ability of the production team, they later abandoned this fancy plan and only retained the most basic one: the mutual conversion of light and dark spells.

"Then we changed this talent into a priest's exclusive talent and tailored a professional task for it.

“But…they didn’t change the underlying code that had already been written.

"After all, normally only priests can choose this talent, and priests only have three skills: light, discipline, and darkness. It is impossible for them to choose elemental and arcane damage."

Lilith was stunned. "So, this bug already existed in version 60?"

Gu Fan nodded: "Yes.

"The reason why players in version 60 didn't notice it was mainly because the elemental damage in that version was normal, neither too high nor too low, and players didn't think of converting it into other damage. In addition, after players in version 60 unlocked all professions, almost no one played arcane magic anymore, so no one had any bad ideas about the glyph of 'Arcane Conversion'.

"But in version 70, the elemental damage was increased too much, and players made too many attempts around elemental damage, and this bug was discovered..."

Lilith still had a look of disbelief on her face, but her reason told her that what Gu Fan said was most likely true.

Because this thing cannot be faked.

The 60th version of Shadow World is still running normally, and the code has not been touched. The original version of Disembodied is also still there.

As long as Lilith asks someone to check it out, she will know whether this bug is a historical problem as Gu Fan said.

Since Gu Fan dared to say so, he must be confident.

"Damn it!"

Lilith was very angry. This half-finished "Conflict in the Demonic World" had caused her so much trouble!

The previous inexplicable all-professional gameplay was due to the historical issues left over from "Demon World Dispute", and now "Breaking the Oath" is also due to historical issues!
How big a pie did the producer of "Disgrace" draw?
It's ok if you didn't finish the biscuits, but can you please not throw the leftover sesame seeds everywhere? It's very troublesome to clean up!

But Lilith obviously didn't want to let the historical issues take all the blame. She still said unjustifiably: "Okay, I know there are historical issues involved, but don't other people have any responsibility at all!"

Obviously, this "other person" is very likely to refer specifically to Gu Fan.

Gu Fan looked confused, like a programmer who didn't understand the ways of the world: "Boss Li, what do you mean specifically?"

Lilith was furious: "Then can you explain what the glyph of Arcane Transmutation is? And why are there so many elemental damage-boosting equipment?"
