When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 470 The Wind Direction Has Changed

As soon as these words were spoken, a bunch of question marks floated across the screen.

"????"

Obviously, the viewers of the video had never expected that Lao Wang next door would choose this angle to explain the hosts' ugly eating habits.

Everyone’s first impression, of course, is that it’s nonsense.

There should be a limit to your over-interpretation, right? Could it be that he is also using Ni Tian Tang's money to clean up the mess?

But after the previous foreshadowing, many things were indeed connected, which confused the audience again.

This video from Lao Wang next door has a special core from beginning to end, stringing together the three major controversial points of "game plot", "game mechanism" and "anchor behavior".

That is "having a clear self-awareness of the new reincarnation."

In other words, only when players realize that the content of the official chapter is not a recollection of the past, but a continuation of the prologue, can they better understand the game's plot and mechanism and make countermeasures against this special mechanism.

The depth of the players' understanding of "time travel" and "reincarnation" will directly affect their gaming experience.

And this time, the activities of the anchors happened to match the plot and mechanisms of the game!
In the game, the character has actually gone through countless reincarnations and has mastered very sophisticated GP skills, but players are unaware of this and think that the character has only come to Charlton for the first time. This is a scam;

In reality, the anchors have actually played "Blood of Lies" many times and have mastered very sophisticated GP skills, but the audience does not realize this and still thinks that the anchors are really new to the game. This is the second scam.

The game inside and outside is almost exactly the same.

The players were neither aware of the scam within the game nor exposed the scam outside the game. They were completely deceived by Against the Heaven.

It also corresponds to the keyword "lie" in "Blood of Lies".

……

Lilith was dumbfounded. She angrily talked to Lao Wang next door in the video: "What a bullshit theory! Even if the reality and the plot in the game happen to correspond, so what? You are not going to say that this is some special propaganda method? Or is this some special performance art?
"Guess whether I believe it or not!"

However, Lao Wang next door seemed to have guessed what these viewers wanted to ask and gave the answer directly in the next video.

“I know that many viewers may ask: So what if the game and the real storyline match? Is this also a promotional method for Against Heaven? Don’t you think it’s too forced?
“This is indeed one of the propaganda methods of Ni Tian Tang, and it is also a special kind of performance art that breaks the dimensional wall.

“Some people may find this explanation very strong, because it seems that it was a temporary worker from Ni Tian Tang who caused trouble and the matter could not be covered up, so it was finally exposed.

"But think about it carefully, has Ni Tian Tang ever made such a low-level mistake?

"The entire team of Against Heaven has always been known for its efficiency. According to insiders, Against Heaven has maintained a relatively flat and streamlined structure so far. We can also see from the progress of Against Heaven's game development that it can almost be said to be the most efficient game development company in the world.

“Games from Against Heaven are only released ahead of schedule, and there will never be any delays. Moreover, the game is by no means a half-finished product. Once it is released, it is the final and complete version that does not need any changes. There is no subsequent update, and only minor repairs by mod authors are needed to make the game have a long-term vitality.

“It’s just an incredible miracle.

“To achieve this, you need strong project management capabilities. Is it possible for a team with such strong management capabilities to make such a low-level mistake as a temporary worker posting in the middle of the night and deleting it within seconds?

"So I think this is more like an intentional act from within Anti-Heaven. They deliberately exposed a flaw to expose this matter.

"Then why did Ni Tian Tang do this?

"That's what I want to say, apart from the deeper reasons for publicity. This anchor event is not only a publicity event, but also a reminder of the game mechanics!

“We know that these two hidden mechanisms, or bugs, in the game are buried very deeply. It is difficult for players to discover them during normal play.

“Although there are clear hints in the game plot, considering that most players do not read the plot, it will be difficult for players to realize it in the short term.

“Therefore, in order to allow players to find these two hidden mechanisms faster, the official specially organized such a real-life anchor event.

“The purpose is to arouse players’ suspicion through this abnormal streamer activity, so that they can associate it with something abnormal in the game, and find the direction by cracking the plot, and then find the two hidden mechanisms in the game, so as to achieve the god-like ending more smoothly.

"I guess, according to the original plan of Against Heaven, the whole process should be like this:

“First, Ning Meng and a series of other anchors chose to show their hands to prove themselves because of the players’ suspicions about the GP success rate.

"They have proven that their GP skills are genuine, but there are still obvious doubts about the whole thing. If we continue to dig deeper, we may come to the conclusion that 'they have practiced in advance.' "Secondly, based on this point, comparing the plot of the prologue and thinking about the changes in the GP success rate between the prologue and the official chapters, we may come to the conclusion that 'the high GP success rate in the prologue is also a hint', and thus realize that 'the protagonist of the prologue has also experienced countless reincarnations'.

“So how can we bring the abilities of the protagonist in the prologue to the main chapters?

"It's nothing more than tossing around the weapons on the ground after defeating the Liar Hunter. Combined with the old bugs of Endless Fantasy Legend and repeated attempts, players may find this hidden mechanism backdoor left by the official, thereby reducing the difficulty of the game and naturally achieving the God-like ending.

“But the officials never expected that the players’ reasoning ability was a bit poor, and it ended when Ning Meng and other anchors showed their hands to prove themselves!

"The players actually accepted this obviously unreasonable conclusion and even gave Ning Meng the title of 'Innate GP Holy Body', causing this combo to get stuck at the first step and not be able to move forward!
"What should we do? If we just let it go, wouldn't all the efforts made by the authorities be in vain?

"The authorities cannot expose themselves and make the truth of the whole event public. That would be like the author of a detective novel revealing the ending, which is a very disappointing act.

"So the official had no choice but to sell such an obvious flaw, hoping to arouse everyone's suspicion and return to the step of 'Ning Meng and other anchors proving themselves' to continue the cycle.

"But what was unexpected was that the players skipped the previous steps and found these two hidden mechanisms by accident or by unpacking the game, rather than by speculating through the plot.

“This has caused a huge misunderstanding among players, who have mistaken the hidden mechanism for a game bug.

“And this anchor event organized by the government has become the biggest scam in the history of gaming in this world.

“I personally think that Against the Heavens is a bit unfair, and the anchors are also wronged.

"Let's think about it carefully. If Against Heaven is really deceiving people on purpose, they could have many other ways. How many people can they deceive by hiring anchors to deceive players? How much can it boost the sales of the game? It is completely meaningless except to disgust people. With this spare money, they might as well hire some Internet users to hype up the game, or use formal channels for promotion. The income they can get is much more than hiring anchors to act.

"Against Heaven can't spend so much money just to disgust everyone, right? This is totally unreasonable.

"And if according to my explanation, this is a real-life event linked to the plot of Blood of Lies, and a special reminder of the hidden mechanism of Blood of Lies, isn't it much more reasonable? Many details can also match up."

……

At this point in the video, the direction of the barrage has changed.

Although there are still many people who don't believe it, the mainstream comments have turned into shock, conviction and enlightenment.

To be fair, is this explanation far-fetched?

It's still quite far-fetched.

Many of the connections are fabricated and there is no strict logical relationship between them.

However, whether an explanation is convincing or not depends not on how it is compared with itself but how it is compared with other explanations.

The "Anti-Heaven and anchor joint fraud incident" itself is full of unreasonableness. Under the premise that players do not know that Lilith is deliberately collecting negative emotions and destroying the reputation of "Blood of Lies" and Anti-Heaven, the original explanation of this fraud actually has many doubts.

It’s just that there was no more reasonable explanation, so the players subconsciously believed this fraudulent explanation.

Now, Lao Wang's video next door puts forward an equally unreliable and flawed explanation. If this explanation is given alone, most people will definitely not believe it, but the original "fraud incident" is even more unreasonable.

Comparing the two, it is Lao Wang's new explanation next door that is more reasonable.

More importantly, compared to a "grassroots team", most people are more receptive to the term "playing big chess".

For example, in some current affairs or international events, when some incredible mistakes occur, most people’s first reaction is not to think that it is caused by a makeshift team, but rather that there is some internal conspiracy or power struggle.

Or in literary and artistic works, low-level mistakes are generally not tolerated, but conspiracies with complex links are generally recognized.

Readers can accept a complex conspiracy that requires the involvement of hundreds of people and involves several twists and turns, but they cannot accept that the protagonist or villain makes a low-level mistake.

But in reality, even the wisest people are likely to be confused by the situation and make incredible decisions; and a complex conspiracy with several links reversed is almost impossible to happen, because the cumulative probability of failure in each link will be an astronomical figure, reducing the success rate of the entire plan to an unacceptable level.

The logic in reality is completely opposite to that in literary works, which also reflects the general mentality of ordinary people towards such things.

"Against the Heavens made a low-level mistake" is more in line with factual logic than "Against the Heavens is playing a big game", but it does not meet public expectations.
