Nope, it's the other one: Kono Sekai wa Fukanzen Sugiru.
Hmm. Reading that manga now.
I dunno. The main character kinda seems like an idiot?
Like, he's been locked in a game-world for over a year and he's... continuing to do his job? Literally a year of unpaid work while being imprisoned in the game because he thinks that maybe the developers will let him go if he does a good enough job?
I understand that everybody's gotta find a way to cope with this shit, but him getting mad and bitching out the other debuggers who showed up for daring to use the dev-console?
You're the weird one for
not doing it. Like anybody cares what 'proper bug-testing etiquette' is in this situation.
Honestly, it feels like the villains of this scene are way more reasonable than the MC, so the author had to belatedly have the guy blurt out that they love to murder, rape(?) and torture npcs, so that the MC would look better in comparison.
Like, I get that some people might have empathy for the npcs and other people would not, and how that could cause conflict between the two groups...
But this feels too hamhanded.
Edit: You get an expaination of why he won't use debugger-mode later (all of his friends used it and fucked themsleves up by getting caught in a jump-loop or phasing into your ground/flying off into the sky and never coming down) but... most of those feel like problems that could be easily solved by debugger mode?
Like, he's leaving his friends to suffer fates worse than death because he's too scared to toggle Noclip on for 2 seconds to pull a dude out of the ground, or use Flymode and a rope to haul the lady out of the instant-death trap that she's constantly dying-and-reviving in.
Rather than just stupid, now he actively seems like a bad person?
I get the impression that the author knows about game-glitches, but hasn't actually use a debug-mode before.
Edit2: And then an AI takes over the little girl's body and tasks him with removing all of the other debuggers debug-permissions, so that they stop messing up the game and it can actually be released.
... that's obviously not going to happen, right? Dozens of people had their conciousness trapped in this game for over a year. There's absolutely no way they're going to be able to ship this game at all. That's why all the bug-fixing is such a moot point to begin with.
Even if they can fix whatever issue is preventing them from logging out, a game that kidnapped dozens of staff members for over a year is going to be scrapped just as soon as the people inside are rescued, and the technology used to create it will probably be
abolished.
Edit3: Wait, the bug reports he sends off ARE resulting in bugs being fixed?
What the fuck?
The dev team are still working on the game?
Then why havn't the freed the testers?
