Chapter 202  Dealing with Band and game principles 

Roan said in a calm tone, "It's simple. All I want is a musician class."

Silence…

A shaky voice came from the phone. [Leader, is there really a musician class?]

"Not for now, but the way the game progresses, there will soon be a musician discovery class."

[What boss are you serious about that? You know that getting a discovery class is all about luck, right?]

"Luck, sure minimal luck, but most of the time it's not luck. It depends on gameplay."

Mike asked, [Ahh gameplay? What gameplay leader? How can we get to this class? Tell me, leader.]

Vice also said, [Yeah boss, this is the first time I heard about this gameplay thing.]

Roan said in a calm tone, "See Liberty online learns all these discovery classes by examining players' gameplays. Now, how do you think this whole game-learning thing works?"

Vice said, [Don't AI just observe many stupid actions done by players and then when many players repeated this task, AI just create their classes based on that action?]

Roan shook his head. "Seem logical, but the thing was there were too many players, and observing all of them, especially to develop a class, is time taking and inefficient. By the way, none of this is official but my self-made theory."

[What you say sounds correct leader, but then what is the correct way according to you?]

"I think the creation of a discovery class has many steps involved. First Ai discovered some new movements performed by a player. Now Ai would search game-wide if there were other players doing the same thing. After a quick scan, it would get 2 results. 1st only a few players or one guy doing that action, this closed the path of class creation and instead lead to skill creation."

Vice said in amazement, [Wait, is this the secret code to get new free skills? All I have to do is perform something different.]

Roan nodded, "Well, you can try doing many weird things, but the success rate is abysmally low and who knows the skill you get will be useful or waste. Not worth it. "

[Oh okay.]

[Hey idiot Vice, do not disturb the leader. Leader, what about the second result of the scan?]

"If Ai found many percentages of players doing the same thing, it will initiate the making of the discovery class. Every discovery class means Ai learning new things about players. To learn about the weird action, Ai will short out many crazy players that repeatedly do this action."

[Ai will select only a few players. But boss, if we talk about music, then I believe there would still be many players that just casually sing their favorite songs. Will Ai select them also?]

"At the start, sure, then Ai will shorten the number of observers list with time. Take the entertainment class. This class works on the principle where a player does some action that attracts others' attention to him. Now there is not one way to do this right."

Mike said, [Yeah there is singing, dancing, and drama. I even heard many real-life celebrities get the chance to take an entertainment class while doing nothing.]

Vice asked, [But didn't this entertainment class have many branch classes like body entertainment, voice entertainment, and even visual entertainment? All of this sound like musician, dancer, and painters with just another name.]

"Nope, there is a thin boundary line difference between them. Now moving to the theory, Ai will take its time learning the new thing from a selected group of players. After it learned most about the extra activity, it will work on how to make this activity work in the game. When the Ai completed everything, it will award the discovery class to the player that contributed the most. It's not luck but the understanding of the game. The Liberty gives everyone a fair reward for their known/unknown work."

Silence once again...

Vice said, [wow there's so much behind the simple game. You are a great boss. You solve this mystery yourself.]

[Leader, you are great.]

Roan scratched his head, "you know all of this is nothing. The actual process may be far more complex."

[You are so humble, boss. ]

Roan said in annoyance. "Shut up vice." He knew that what he said was nothing special.

Mike asked him, [So Leader, what do we have to do? You said something about race and how much time we have before a musician appeared in the game.]

[Dude stopped panicking first.]

[Shut up Vice, it's about musician class you know-]

Roan cut Mike, "Calm down Mike, nothing will come out of panicking. I don't know how much time we have, but at least the good thing is your crazy band must be in that core list of Ai. "

[Yes boss, no doubt about that.]

Roan continued, "Now there are 2 things you guys can do. First, continue singing. Second, make sure you are not moving toward the Entertainment class. Remember the moment you got the entertainment class offer it would get impossible for you to get musician class."

Mike's tensed voice came, [but how do we know if we are going to entertainment class or not?]

Vice shouted, [I know, stop singing in front of players. If there is no player, then their no entertainment class.]

"Nope, bad idea. If they do not sing to the public, then how can they still be a successful musician? Mike, the only advice I can give you is to ask yourself a few questions. What is a musician? How is a musician different from an entertainer? How can a musician affect the gaming world? Is there anything in music that helps with the game? Remember, it is not about music but how music affects the game elements."

Mike said after some time, [I don't understand much boss?]

 Roan sighed and said, "Don't worry. Talk with your bandmates. If at any moment you think of some way, contact Vice. Vice the teams' new task is the survival of bandmates."

Vice said, [waa, I thought you contact me for adventure.]

Roan smiled. "I am busy these days, but I will make sure to take the team to a feast. A bloody feast soon."

[Bloody feast interesting. Haha, don't worry about the band boss. Nothing will happen to them.]

Roan said casual tone, "Good, and remember if any of this leaked out then just run. Run away from me with your family as fast as you can, OK?"

['Gulp.' Yes Boss.]

['Gulp.' Yes leader.]

Tak. The phone call ended.
