fires of rubicon gameplay

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!"

Weak, powerless and pathetic. If anyone asked about Amon Ignis, this was all they would hear. Along with the occasional "his mom's kinda hot too." His mother, Lyssa Ignis, was the best on the Japan National Team. Everyone expected him to follow in her footsteps. And yet, he didn't. This is his adventure. And what an adventure it'll be. Did I also forget that he has magic.

Vaam had never expected much from life. He didn't wish to Love, nor to Hate, he never wished to cause pain, nor to end lives. All he ever wanted was to have a tranquil death... With the very concept of his identity shattered. With the lives of his people standing near the very trenches of hell. With the layers of filth and lies sinking to let place to his true condition. There was no other way anymore... Vaam would die at war.

"Let's just stop." She was adamant of what she said, she wasn't sure about everything, but one thing's for sure, she wanted to end everything. "Why?" He asked with his eyes full of sincerity— sincerity of pain. "This is just a game needed to be played," she answered. Having to live a life of riots and vehemence, she wasn't the kind who gets bothered with violence. She's not the one who gets soft, but what if she finds herself stuck with someone as powerful as her? Does she really know what's coming for her? What happens when they collide? Will it be a good thing or a bad one? Will it be their strength or their downfall? Who will be the protagonist or the victim between the two of them? Or will the both of them be considered as the antagonist of their own story of misery? But one thing's for sure... One burns. One falls.

Narrator voice— World in a world in a world~ My perspective to your perspective. We skip 4 years into the future after an international video game competition. “In the name of the game, we stay forever.” or whatever that means. There isn’t much I could say to make you crazy for this book but of course I would wonder if you were crazy to read such a book in the first place. Without further ado I present to you….. Oh did you not want me to finish there? Such an energetic audience. Ok where were we, 4 years into the story after a competition yadyadyada, in a city where anything and everything can happen. Anything you can think of is anything that this city has, but how will you know to think of it? You wouldn’t and you couldn’t and you really shouldn’t. The imagination is beautiful but it can be the most dangerous thing. Geneva rosetti navigates her way through this fantasy world. You would think of real life but real life and fiction meet, or more like they clash because they should never meet, to be honest. I will tell you there are hero’s and there are villains in this story but you just can’t tell who is who. That is the closest thing to reality in this book. What you see is always less than what you get, and if you want more you have to study harder ((sequel)). Okay now, that’s it because if I tell you more I ruin the book. And again, without further ado puppybear presents……
