As the core mechanism of the game, Chen Ba believes this point is flawless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wenjie indeed lost health.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem is, the lost health seems to have disappeared without trace, and he doesn’t know how it got deducted. Anyway, there is a record, yet he still remains in full health...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, it creates a \"locked health\" illusion, which, after the community video spread, was deemed as evidence of \"cheating\" by everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba can clarify that Yu Wenjie didn’t cheat, but his words alone aren’t enough. He must provide evidence to prove Yu Wenjie didn’t cheat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s a solution now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing Ba’s changing expressions, Lu proposed a relatively reasonable solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to define this incident as a game bug, which would clear Yu Wenjie’s suspicion of cheating, and no one would attack or insult him anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba said helplessly, \"Using your method, Yu Wenjie indeed won’t be attacked, but what about me? What should I do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a masterful move to divert disaster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, someone has to be cursed. So why not shift the conflict, moving the players’ anger from Yu Wenjie to Ba?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up already!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember this, in our Tianba Studio, we can admit anything, take any blame, and shoulder any wrongdoing, but we cannot admit that our game has problems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba reiterated the core philosophy of the studio, stating that Lu’s thinking is flawed. How can one conclude it’s a game bug without any evidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it’s not a bug, what else could it be? Don’t tell me this is your special design?\" Lu said exasperatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe it is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling strange, Chen Ba reluctantly said, \"Don’t worry about it now. Let me ask you, where did the health that Yu Wenjie was supposed to lose go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How should I know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu replied, half-laughing, half crying, \"I’ve reviewed this game over twenty times. I dare to bet my career that everything in this game is normal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu extensively studied the game between Yu Wenjie and the victim player, almost losing his hair, and ultimately concluded: there is no issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There really isn’t any issue!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The parameters and codes within the game are all normal, without any anomalies or special situations, and the client server has been checked; this match was a normal game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So... what can be done?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu is perplexed, wondering why, as the game developer and operator, even after thorough investigations, they can’t find any issues in a game where both players reported problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be supernatural phenomena?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the eerie happenings with the \"Mountain Village Memories\" Divination System, Lu is starting to believe in this mysterious science.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene not only scares him, but it also makes him think that if no anomalies can be detected, yet the game appears abnormal, what could it be if not a supernatural phenomenon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Ba use a \"super administrator\" account to help Yu Wenjie cheat?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ba and Yu Wenjie have no connections; they don’t know each other. Why would Ba use a super administrator account to help him cheat and cover it up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anything, the probability of Ba using a super administrator account to privately chat with female players for online dating is probably a hundred times higher than this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excluding the only possibility, other than super administrator account intervention, this issue can only be described as \"haunted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t talk about feudal superstitions; this is clearly a game issue, we just haven’t found the root cause yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba said dismissively, \"Though it’s indeed quite strange — the health is locked, yet the game check reveals no anomalies?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s as if there’s an invisible hand forcibly intervening in this game, leaving no traces, or perhaps... it leaves traces, but its actions align with game mechanics, hence no problems are visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But another problem arises!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from the super administrator account, Chen Ba genuinely can’t think of any other possibilities to achieve this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that no traces are left is utterly puzzling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is also why Chen Ba refutes Lu and thinks this isn’t a \"game bug.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exactly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He doesn’t admit this is a game bug, not even privately, mainly because all these manifestations don’t meet the criteria for defining a game bug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A game bug needs to have anomalies and situations arise; in other words, if it were a game bug, they would definitely detect clues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No game bug can escape the keen eyes of a game maker once exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Players eagerly await, while Chen Ba and Lu fiddle at their computers for ages, unable to provide a response, nor can they issue an announcement proving Yu Wenjie’s innocence, because of this very root.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheating? No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Game bug? No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what exactly is going on? Why is there a situation where a player gets hit but doesn’t lose health?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ba, should we call it quits?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu is a bit hungry, and doesn’t want to continue toying with Ba anymore, mainly because it’s totally futile labor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the fiddling could lead to some discovery, even if the issue can’t be immediately resolved after being found, the frustration wouldn’t be so intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after all their efforts, they still don’t know where the issue lies. Isn’t this just futile?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of wasting time, it’d be better to fill their bellies and think carefully whether some key detail was overlooked or find new ways to resolve the issue.\u003C\u002Fp>",919,"2026-06-06T03:03:37.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","2061fbaf592ab715b38269c933d5c78d74924eea1095d840928603de68cc05ad","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-446","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-444",479,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-cover.jpg"]
