(A/N Notes: ... I ran out of ideas for what to write in my notes)

Inside a meeting room

"..."

Everyone inside was silent, as they all sat down around a meeting table

"... He defeated the secret boss"

"We know..."

"... And it was a one-sided fight"

"We saw it..."

"... And it was really cool so we should use it for our next major patch advertisement"

"Hell yeah! We should!"

They all agreed on that decision

"Wait, shouldn't we first ask for his permission to use his fight for our trailers?"

"I already asked him about a week ago, and he sent me an email containing an edit of his fight"

"You did? And how is his edit like?"

The dev who had the video made a troubled face

"... Do you remember those MLG's montages, with a bunch of dubstep music and memes?"

"Yes, why do you ask?"

"Think of that, but with mixed in with anime references and handmade animation"

"... You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention"

Another dev got really interested in what the video contained

"Well... I can show you guys how the video looks like"

The dev with the video turned on the projector and connected it to his laptop, and shared the video with the other devs

The video

*Starts with a motherfucking Jojo parody*

Two buffed figures, one of Red Null and the other of Luparious I were standing menacingly

"Ho? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right towards me"

"I can't be shit out of you without getting closer"

"Oh ho! Then come as close as you like"

Then a smooth transition of the first part of the fight changed the cartoony-anime animation to the actual footage, filled with memes of course. Then on the part where Red threw his tomahawk, another smooth transition happened that made his throwing look way cooler than it actually was

*Luparious I gets hit* *That's pretty big meme on the damage counter*

*Red retrieving his tomahawk with thunders and lightning bolts in the background*

And another Jojo like animation started

"You thought this was my end, but you thought wrong Gatturin Guran da!!!"

And when it was the part of Luparious I using his magical battling attack, it was back again to the in-game recording, but when the video closed up on Red, it once again became an anime style animation with his dodging with all sorts of parkour moves, that finished with him invoking the geo construct

*Red jumping on the geo construct followed by a Ricard* Milo gif slapped in front of him, followed by another animation with him jumping up like a certain prisoner anime character who has an attack with angel wings followed by a "Za worldo da!" slapped on top of him*

The video was paused

"Alright, I don't need to see anymore... Send that video to the marketing team immediately!"

"Aye, aye!"

And the dev with the video disconnected his laptop from the projector and left the meeting room

"... What were we talking about again?"

Another dev asked so

"... ... ... Hmm... Something related to the guy with the player name of Red Null?"

"Hmmm..."

They all began thinking together

"Ah! That's right! he defeated the secret boss!"

"That's right! We need to do something about it"

"How about we nerf the skills and magic he uses?"

"We can't, or else everyone else who also use those skills or magics will suffer if we nerf them anymore, they're all hanging by a thread now"

"Yeah, that's definitely a problem... How about we buff the other skills?"

"We can't too"

"Why?"

"What if he picks the buffed skills and causes more havoc by abusing some exploit?"

"That's true... Wait... My god... He'll become unstoppable"

"Why are you saying that?"

"Because if someone defeated Luparious I, they would receive some very generous rewards, right?"

"Yes, that's right"

"And most of those items, are either unobtainable by common means, currently unavailable, or have almost impossible rates, right?"

"Yeah..."

The devs were getting extremely worried

"And all of them are either OP or become very OP in the right hands"

"Yes..."

"And those items are now on the hands... Of someone who abuses every little exploit, he can find... Especially duping exploits... That will use them for making OP stuff for himself..."

"... Shit..."

The ambient of the meeting room became heavy, as all the devs couldn't stop thinking of the monster they created

"WE NEED TO FIX ANY DUPING EXPLOIT BEFORE HE CAN USE THEM!!!"

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

And the devs became all fired up, and quickly got to work to patch any duping exploit they could find, together with any other exploits they found along the way, but there was one single problem...

Inside the game

"*Whistling* ... Yeah, this amount is good, now let's start duping this item"

Red had already duped all of the items from the reward and was now in the process of duping even more of those just because he could, and because he knew the devs would be patching those exploits soon

"I still need to see, what I can do with these items... Something definitely OP I'm sure, just not sure what type of OP item it'll be"

He was just duping the items because he knew they were OP, he just didn't know how to use the items

Some days later

"..."

Riku was watching the trailer for the upcoming major patch, and he could only say one thing

"Majestic... That's how all trailers should always look like"

He was saying that because he was the one producing the video that he sent to the devs, of course, he properly credited and paid the other people he asked for help with the video. After watching the video he went to read the dev notes

"... And the servers will be down for the entire day... Well, it's a pretty massive update, so it's understandable... And they'll probably be using the entire day, only for finding and patching exploits. Not that they'll manage to patch all of them anyway"

After reading the dev notes, Riku went to do his other stuff, and after doing everything that he needed to do, he used his free time to play some other games so that he wouldn't get rusty on those games

(A/N Notes: Triple-A games trailers: Show great graphics, incredible movement, top quality, orchestrated music

Triple-A games in reality: Nothing that was shown on the trailer and filled with bugs

Indie game trailers: Simple, shows how the game is supposed to look like, makes jokes about the game itself

Indie games in reality: Just like how the trailer depicted it

That's all for today everyone!)
