I got out of my Mini Cooper and look up at the building where I worked. It was one story, and constructed of red bricks. The side with the dumpsters (overflowing) was covered with vines. The front was crisp and clean, though. The word "Bungie" , pronounced "BOON - GIE", was a neon light hanging from the wall. The IE in Bungie was out, so it just said "Bung". I chuckled and walked inside. It was a small building already, but it was smaller inside. The 4 desks for the developers were crunched into the right corner, while DeeJ and Cozmo's shrines took up the other part of that side. The beta testers room was a glorified cubicle crammed with TV's in the left side. You could see all the three year olds now, just shouting at whatever killing it and writing it down for a nerf. That was another place in the building. It was called the Furnace. The Furnace was in fact, a digital furnace, but it was where all the weapons that were getting nerf would go. Lucifer, one of the devs, would look at those requests and burn those weapons alive and bury them into the ground. Lucifer was pretty clumsy, so he tended to accidentally nerf other things too. Then Lucifer would normally go pray to Cozmo's shrine and Cozmo would grant Lucifer the gift of covering up his mistakes. I smiled and strolled to my desk. I was a developer here. I wasn't one of the stupid developers, I was one of the nice ones that took feedback from real players and sought to find the best solution to everything*. But today was a dark day. I could hear the play-testers screaming over in their cubicle. Something about Truth and Lies and Health Regen needing a...what was that? A NERF? I reeled in shock and plugged my ears. I couldn't bear to hear any more. I had to fix this before it got out of hand. *satire, no one like this exists.
