38-> I can’t speak for other developers, but I assume many of our players will utilize any angle we give to them, intentionally or not. If you give them an inch, they’ll pound a chisel into that inch until they can split the entire system apart. That said, I do not have a negative opinion about players who use glitches. It’s in their nature and I’d say it’s in my nature as well ... In the case of [[VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas Dead Money]], specifically, I was always skeptical about glitch-proofing it. I only did system design on DM, but that was my opinion at the time. There are certainly many glitches in the engine and I was confident that players would find a way to get the gold bars[[note]]referring to a scene where the player must leave behind a vast fortune or suffer DeathByMaterialism, but a simple exploit allows escape with everything[[/note]] out without resorting to console commands or “true” ([[https://jesawyer.tumblr.com/post/625354433757347840/can-you-define-bushido-breaking-cheatsglitches bushidō-breaking]]) cheats.
