Chapter 239: (Auxiliary) Junior Developer NotesJunior Developer Note:
This is my journey with the character I created: "Gederick, the Golden Majestic".
Okay so the team leader said that every member of a team has to create their own NPC. This is to test our creative capabilities.
The ones with perfect or even mildly good lore and compelling personalities are added into the game as small DLC packs, coupled with unique rewards if the player defeats them.
I've always had a wild imagination. You know, the kind that children have. Mine was still very much alive well into my early twenties. I always had this dream at night where I lead an army numbering in the millions, ready to defend the divine realm. The God of War, a man braving through the frontlines to protect the land that he calls home.
Yes, I admit it's a going to sound like a bit of a self-insert but... I can't help it. Just imagine it: greatest warrior in the divine realm, a man capable of ending a thunderous storm with his roar alone, a man who could lift tectonic plates to create tsunami's and flood the nation of his enemies... That's the kind of man I want to be... Of course, fantasy is just that... fantasy. I'm not even sure if there's a second life for me after I die. Will I reincarnate and become a great magician, scholar or warrior in another world? Will I just fade to nothing?
Gederick is supposed to be the complete opposite of who I am: shy, awkward with girls, average looks, low self-esteem... I wanted him to be the perfect version of me. In any case, the team leader was taken aback by how much backstory and lore I put into the character to give him depth. So much so that she took it to the CEO. He agreed that we should add Gederick as a hidden boss to test Luke von Berkley's skills once he goes into the dungeon during the midgame arcs.
There was an issue though: He was way too weak to bear the title of [God of War] or [Golden Majestic]. Canonically, Luke was already a veteran swordsman by the time he enters the dungeon but still needed the power to fell a demon lord. If he goes into the dungeon after receiving the holy sword then he'd completely annihilate Gederick who is only level 33. The difference in stats wasn't astronomically huge but Luke was still far stronger at level 70.
I went back to planning. I decided to do more re
I enjoyed writing those characters' backgrounds, but not nearly as much as I enjoyed creating my original character Gederick.
Anyway, that's the end of my recording. I should probably add this recording to the system as a "congratulations" message once the player beats Gederick. Ah, but I should edit it first. Don't want my embarrassing stories known by every player out there.
Developer Note #3
It looks like there's some more news about the character that I created. This time it's really bad. Apparently, I accidentally left the level 33 and level 99 versions of Gederick's Character Files in the game. A player from one of the top guilds notified me of this.
I have no idea what kind of bug or conflict this will cause. I can't even remove it on my own since it would create bugs in Luke's Sky God Dungeon questline. Hopefully the team are able to patch it out in the next update.
Team leader is going to be so pissed...
