285: Disclaimer

As soon as these words were uttered, all the viewers in the live stream were stunned.

"What do you mean it was created by a Nascent Soul Cultivator?"

"Damn it, isn't the state-stabilizing seal just a string of code?"

"To put it bluntly, isn't the official refusal to announce update content just a desire to make hidden changes?"

"I think Xuanhuan World has become a monopoly; it's getting more and more lawless now."

A flurry of bullet comments floated by.

In response, Jiang Feng merely said, in a light tone:

"Xuanhuan World is an open Great World, and many update contents cannot be announced."

"Because once announced, it would lose the fun of exploration."

"At the same time, Xuanhuan World is also different from other online games; we have the best open-world design philosophy here."

"We are like building blocks, only providing the most basic filling for Xuanhuan World, just placing some building blocks there."

"As for what it will ultimately develop into, what kind of results the building blocks will form, we officials cannot predict in advance."

The bullet comments in the live stream were once again dumbfounded:

"What do you mean 'officials cannot predict'?"

"Can I understand this to mean that Xuanhuan World has no bugs, only features?"

"It feels like Huan Meng is giving up and just letting things slide, huh?"

Looking at each bullet comment, Jiang Feng patiently explained:

"In Xuanhuan World, the higher the Rank of a Cultivator, the greater the role he can play."

"One person can create a city, can create a dungeon that tens of thousands of players can enter together."

"They can also completely change a large area of terrain, making the models and textures completely chaotic."

"With such powerful Cultivators, do you think it would be reasonable to still limit their action logic like other online games, turning them into boring NPCs?"

As soon as this question was posed, the viewers in the stream fell silent.

After much thought, everyone spoke up, one after another:

"Yes, powerful Cultivators who are not controlled, this is the charm of Xuanhuan World."

"The powerful Golden Core and Nascent Soul Cultivators now are the powerful us in the future. They can change the terrain, which means we can change the terrain in the future. This level of freedom indeed should not be restricted."

"Could it be that the state-stabilizing seal private server was really created by an NPC?"

Seeing that players all expressed support for the high degree of freedom of NPCs, Jiang Feng also smiled.

Xuanhuan World has many selling points: novel Realms, novel settings, novel maps... But the most important thing is the highly free NPCs in this novel world.

These NPCs form a unique Xuanhuan society, bringing players an extremely unique experience, as if they are truly in a new world.

Jiang Feng continued:

"Our Huan Meng uses the highest-grade AI in game NPCs, especially as the NPC's Realm increases, the NPC's thinking ability will greatly improve, which is consistent with the setting of cultivation improvement itself."

"Therefore, what a Golden Core Cultivator can consider is often greater than a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; similarly, what a Nascent Soul Cultivator can consider is often more meticulous than a Golden Core Cultivator."

"But there are also some exceptions; some Cultivators may not think comprehensively for various reasons, or simply be too lazy to think. This is related to the Cultivator's personal character, habits, or the Cultivation Technique he practices."

Jiang Feng paused, then continued:

"To put it bluntly, we merely provide a basic AI model."

"NPCs will have their own memories, which can also be understood as having their own experiences, so different NPCs will have different behavioral logic, manifesting as different individuals."

"In other words, every NPC is similar to a black box; even I, the designer, or other employees of Huan Meng, do not know what it will do next."

Speaking of this, Jiang Feng smiled and said:

"Therefore, it is completely understandable for an in-game NPC to create a private server and enable a faction reputation System for players."

"You can even imagine that maybe an NPC will destroy the entire Newbie Village, causing the entire Xuanhuan World to collapse; all of this is possible."

No limits, no constraints.

The NPCs in Xuanhuan World could create a big surprise for players at any time.

And currently, one thing the viewers in the live stream are curious about is:

"That's not right. Since it's something an NPC created, why can we see the UI interface?"

"And what about the Newbie Village, the newbie tutorial? What's going on with those?"

"Are you sure this isn't something the officials made?"

Looking at these bullet comments.

Jiang Feng knew that today's main event for the live stream had arrived.

The emphasis on high-Rank Cultivators must be communicated to players in advance.

Otherwise, if players are truly tricked later, they will attack the officials.

However... even if players were genuinely warned, Jiang Feng didn't think they would become vigilant.

After all, although they had some understanding of Xuanhuan, their comprehension of Nascent Soul and even stronger Cultivators was not enough.

They found it difficult to understand how a Cultivator could shape a Small World... Jiang Feng looked at the camera and said:

"Golden Core-Rank Cultivators already possess extremely powerful strength and can cast various Divine Abilities and spells."

"These Divine Abilities and spells not only include combat capabilities, but many of them are Divine Abilities used in daily life and cultivation, and a small portion have special effects."

"These special effects can achieve various miraculous results."

"For example, generating a light curtain before your eyes, creating a piece of music in your ear, or even letting you see a large area of illusions."

"Of course, due to the limited strength of Golden Core Cultivators, these Divine Abilities and spells are usually not perfect and can easily be seen through. They also cannot widely affect Foundation Establishment Cultivators; only some extremely powerful Golden Core Cultivators specializing in this Dao might be able to interfere with a large group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators."

"But at the Nascent Soul level, it's different."

Jiang Feng's lips curled up as he smiled slightly and said:

"The power of a Nascent Soul surpasses your imagination."

"This power is not just about combat capability, but an all-encompassing power."

"The Soul Power of a Nascent Soul is extremely strong, allowing them to possess various Soul methods, which enables them to cast more and stronger Divine Abilities and spells."

"You might think this is just a light remark now, but in the future, you will know the true value of this statement."

Jiang Feng looked at the camera and reminded:

"Pay attention, everything you see in Xuanhuan World could be an illusion woven for you by a Nascent Soul-Rank Cultivator."

"You should try to understand this illusion in a broad sense."

"It's not just visual and auditory illusions."

"Every Nascent Soul Cultivator is a Great Master of chess; the chess game they weave will make you completely immersed and unable to extricate yourselves."

"So I emphasize once again, the faction reputation System created by the state-stabilizing seal this time is entirely his personal action and has nothing to do with the officials."

"What will happen in the future, we officials do not know."

"Players, stay vigilant."]}
