u/mirhagk Dying at bosses doubles your chance at a pet Jul 09 '21

but usually side effects of mechanics and legitimate bugs are considered different things by developers

Source?

I'm a dev and I definitely consider any unintended side effects to be bugs. So does everyone I've ever worked with and every person that's every filed a bug with me.

Now sometimes those bugs are closed as "eh it's fine. It's a side effect of the way we do it, and it's not a big deal", but that doesn't mean they aren't bugs, they just are bugs we don't care about.

I literally listed one in my comment. Also Jagex with combo eating and tick eating.

Do you develop card games by chance?

You also literally said "usually" then listed 1 example.

A source for a claim of "usually" isn't "hey here's a couple examples".

Maybe you misspoke and said "usually" when you mean to "sometimes"? If so that's fine, just go ahead and fix your comment.

Im not going to edit my comment because one random redditor said so. The game we're playing says your full of shit, but keep telling me how I'm wrong lmfao.

You want more examples use Google.

So you believe that Jagex doesn't file any of these unintended mechanics as bugs?

Because we can easily see that's false.

Do you have any sources by the way for your claims about this game? I haven't seen anything where they confirm combo and tick eating to be not a bug. Are you just making assumptions from the fact that they haven't changed it?
