Drama Recap: Does the New Title 'Thrud' Copy-Paste Popular Mechanics?

Recently, the ACG-style mobile game 'Thrud' launched its test phase, triggering heated discussions on the forums. The original poster expressed curiosity, citing rumors that the developer has a history of 'pump-and-dump' tactics, and mentioned an interest in the character design while unable to secure a test key.

The response was immediate and critical. Many users pointed out that the 'biggest drama' lies in its UI and progression systems, which are nearly identical to 'Genshin Impact.' Netizens sarcastically remarked that the game offers 'zero-cost learning' for players. Some users even provided Bilibili links as 'evidence,' accusing the developers of being lazy 'copy-pasted' imitators who 'learned all the bad habits but none of the good ones.'

The term 'taking from the pool' (a play on words implying the game's design was crowdsourced from forum complaints or existing successful templates) became a common joke. Critics argue that while the game might not be strictly illegal, the lack of original design choices feels insincere and lazy.
