“Cynthel is amazed at how real Mysteria looks and feels. Before he can even get a whole minute to enjoy it, trouble is brewing. Word is spreading that the log out buttons are all disabled, as well as the support system that could have been used to call for help from the admins. But surely, they’ll be fine if people in the outside world take the NVR’s off of them.”

How do they go to the bathroom
Nobody goes to the bathroom in video games. Heck, lots of games don’t even have bathrooms to go to.
So, here’s a thought. Most armor in games like this would be pretty damn impractical in real life, either to fight in or just to wear. Does the game compensate for that? For instance, there are presumably different environments. What would happen if, say, the brunette with the purple lipstick went to a snowy zone? That’s not exactly cold-weather gear she’s wearing… (For that matter, a guy in the third panel has a hood and short sleeves. Either his head is going to be too warm, or his arms are going to be too cold.)
Just noticed that this comic has chapters
As long as this doesn’t become like SAO, where they die, this is going to be good.
Must resist urge to compare to SAO…
Oh, you silly trapped gamers. The NVR is probably loaded with some kind of “deadly if the safety systems are forcibly disabled” thing in them, and if you remove them, you probably die. Probably. That, or Foxx has decided to have some kind of enchantment from an evil magus imbue the game’s code with some kind of “your real bodies are empty husks, your souls are in the virtual world” kind of deal.
Yes, I’ve probably read too much SAO related stuff, and other similar stories… I’m too prepped for this 😛
Just a few hours, hmmmm, good luck with that!!!
The thing I find strange is why in all films/comics etc where there is some kind of neural device information is always displayed as a head up display in front of the eyes, why press an imaginary button rather than just think or know it?
I’ve seen some that aren’t. Still generally I believe its explained as a combination safety/trigger effect. That is humans find it easier to have a visual/aduible que to structure their thoughts. Thinking Run scan is easy, thinking a complex series of commands to vent a gas is harder unless its tied to something like a vent gas button. The second reason is even in games you don’t want commands going off by accident so the visual representation of pressing a button serves to prevent accidental usage. e.g. almost at the end of a boss battle Leena thinks I’m exhausted after… Read more »
Oh I expect it to be much more just 2 hours
Why do I have a feeling that this part of some giant scheme to Break the Masquerade, the results of having the helmet taken off are worrying me a bit if it’s not death.
This couldn’t be Chris, he can change into a woman on a whim why would he want to be one in game, especially his being angry at Holly for forcing him to be one.
It was that Holly was forcing it too much. Given the entire comic of Different Perspectives before Holly knew anything, Chris has no problem being either gender. Given his abilities, I doubt what gender he is really matters to him much any more, except that Holly is taking advantage of that fact too much for his liking.
I’m not really happy with the Chris/Holly breakup that’s brewing I liked them as a couple.
His problem was that Holly didn’t want him. He didn’t have a problem pretending to be a woman sometimes. It had to be his choice. it confirmed to me it was Chris when he new ‘boob mechanics.’. lol
Yeah, the “breast jiggle mechanics” line had me thinking, “And how does he know, hmmm?”
worst senario, trap for few hours…. that guy hasent watch SAO.
The brunette is the hottest
There’s a brunette coming. 😉
I’m talking about the obe right there?
Hope it’s somebody we know
SAO theme?
Hopefully this does not go SAO where the NVR sets are rigged to kill the user if forcefully removed and if you die in the game you die for real
What is SAO?
Sword Art Online, an anime.
Nah, they do something much more interesting than that.
I sense the deviousness in you Fox; I can tell this is going to be a very interesting comic.
I am thinking that the wrong mind might returned to the wrong body.
they become their characters in real life?
As I said earlier while interesting if that’s the case then its going to be a reality break point when you have thousands, potentially millions of elves suddenly real its going to change the way that world works and that doesn’t even consider things like the shaman and their fire elementals.
I was thinking that it would just do nothing but if sam say’s it’ll be interesting then that’s probably not what’ll happen.
That’s what I thought would be more entertaining.
