Comment by vishi on The Ruined World Was Mistaken for a Game - Chapter 29

@vishi This isn't a game where boundary glitches exist. None of them realistically have any way to leave if he set up borders himself

@The Long Quiet yeah but, instead of glitches magic exists
plus they think its a game, so no fear of death or any boundary to mess with the "game mechanics"

also the moment the demons figure out what he's doing, they are not going to play along
there is no way he can manage this lie for long

if the players find out after getting invested
everyone's would probably be happy to help

its just, the player curiosity starts and stops with bothering the NPC's and nothing more
the moment i get in there, the first thing i would do is get range or chip damage items
and rush to the edge of the map looking to farm late game items/levels, and that's just the first thing that comes to mind

@vishi I think the mc just walked out of the barrier just fine in the first chap - it’s just that there’s high level monsters out there. A player isn’t going to get far looking for unreleased content before dying and respawning in the city. Doubtless they’d be people trying and streaming it though

I am surprised that the city hasn't had serious major problems with the players though. It's not uncommon for players to mass murder for fun at a dime, or grief other bases, torment npcs to oblivion, or steal everything in sight, ect.

100% they'd be looking sign up for a 'thieves guild' or whatever underbelly organisation the city can't control. Practically every player would wanna play undercover gangster given the chance.

The poor town guards. At least they respawn

@vishi yeah I wonder when demons would try to break the illusion it’s a game. A little torture or finding a way to damage souls would do it 

 people would most definately try and kill the cat girls to take the piss out of weebs or furries or kill the town people just to see what happens
maybe friendly fire is turned off for NPC's tho i would assume, right now everyone there is stronger than the players

plus this being just a real world with magic
you can craft stuff too
that be the worst case scenario, you cannot account for what that does
if i keep the exp even if you lose items
everyone would just max out speed/agility and suicide bomb there way to victory
or something else, like a automatic artillery that farms stuff for you

@Needtoread  if they could actually fuck with people's soul's, then yeah at that point the manhwa's over. 

@vishi the destructive capabilities and cheat seeking of gamers who experiences no consequences…
