Sounds like the premise of Westworld.

Now I want to see a game about a game that wants to be a movie instead.

LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Running an online multiplayer RPG, my god, this is so true. The game would be so much better if we just got rid of all the players. All they do is harass each-other and break shit!
I have the same feelings about RPG maker forums.

Huh... I kinda wanna make a game like this... where all the NPCs just wander around and interact with each other and cause problems, and people can watch it on Twitch and cheer for their favorite...

I guess at that point it's just a simulation, huh?


altho... watching players break the game you so carefully crafted is kind of enjoyable, if also depressing T_T

I mean, there are different ways players have of mucking with a game. Some feel like "polluting" it more than others, and I feel like I've probably experienced all of them.

Type A: "This mission has a 36 hour cooldown. But I discovered that if you cast Reflect on an enemy and then cast Spellsteal on it, it'll actually transfer your cooldown to the enemy. And then you can do the mission again. So I did that like fifteen times in a row and then felt like I should probably report it." Bro, I'm not even mad. Would you like to join the design team?

Type B: "I figured out you can kill this level 100 enemy at level 5 if you do some very weird buggy combination of skills. So I did that and got to level 100 in an hour. And then told all my friends how, and they told their friends, and now every single player in the entire game has hit max level this weekend." OK, now you're kind of a dick. If you wanna skip the entire game on your own character, that's one thing, but don't ruin the game for everyone.

Type C: "I made a botting script. Anybody want to buy a copy of my botting script for $10? I included a way to trick the admin's method of checking for botting." Fuck you, asshole. Don't you have anything better to do than ruin my games?

Type D: "You stupid fucking bitch, do you think this isn't serious? Your life is at stake, and you'd better send the nude vids this fucking instant. You won't be the first person I've killed. I know several third parties who'd be interested in ending that life of yours and you know I already have your real name." Holy shit. This guy actually showed up in my game once. Another time we got a gang of neo nazis! This sort of thing is almost enough to make me close down the game to avoid dealing with it.
Type Helazz: "Hey guys I am totally not Helazz... okay, you got me. But I promise not to fuck things up this time. Pretty please can I stay? c'mon!" *proceeds to fuck things up. Again.* "I declare war!!!" *sends spambots* Repeat entire thing x100" *sigh*
