Sword Art Online: The Game Begins

[DekuNut]

((The one in the games, where you just kinda lie there. Not like the full-body experience seen in the trailer for the movie))

 

[Alita the Pun]

((yeah don't understand those words storm,)) ((Whoops sorry dek,))
instead of opening it on computer he puts on the helmet waiting for this expensive technology to do what it was supposed to.

(The nerve gear intercepts the signals sent to your body from your brain and turns them into inputs in game. This isn't normal vr though. It's fully emerssive meaning that you only hear, see, smell the in game things. As far as you can tell it's like walking around in the real world but it's a game. No pain sensor but you feel fatigue and hunger. Your body in the real world doesn't move and you can't hear anything in the real world. Basically, video game world replaces real world.)

 

[Alita the Pun]

((ok))

 

[Woyogoyo]

((I edited an earlier post, so now I have a beginner's guide.))

Oregano gets into position behind the boar and activates the skill Horizontal.

Domozilla sanders around aimlessly looking for another player. He seemed to have spawned in a remote part of the world.

 

[Woyogoyo]

((The players all spawn in the same location.))

 

[Storm]

(let Dom flounder. it's better that way. if he has questions, He'll ask)

 

[DekuNut]

((Nah, it's best to correct Dom so he knows what kind of world he's dealing with. If he has any problems with us correcting him he'll tell us))

 

[Violet Link]

She flipped through the handbook and there were various guides on how to properly use your sword with the Sword Skill system on the game. Amazed by the countless of skills available, she then wanted to tried one of them...

"Okay..." She heaved her lungs as she closed the book, handing it over to Ulrich, and let some breath out.

Holding the hilt of the rapier tightly, she slowly walked towards one of the boar that was eating grass, haven't spotted Boxer.

"Here I go!"

She held both of her hands to the rapier and to her shoulder, and then a glow appeared at the hilt as she charged at the boar, thrusting it's body. After she passed it, the boar laid down in defeat and shattered.

"Whew! I feel there are more complicated Sword Skills than what I did!"

 

[Woyogoyo]

((@DekuNut : So, do you want to continue the fight, or did my sword skill kill it?))

 

[Libk]

"Hey good job!" He finished off another one of his own and sheathed his sword. "Be careful with your sword skills too. There are more powerful omes, but the more powerful they are the more open you are to counter attacks afterwards. There should be a little icon to show its cooldown timer too. You can't use a skill until it's off cooldown, but you can use other sword skills during that time. It's a lot to keep track of, but you'll learn it."

 

[Alita the Pun]

((Oh sorry, I know nothing of SAO, is there anyone in the town still or did they all leave?))

 

[Mido]

Ardeel, amidst his awe of the game, scrolled through his inventory. Having acquired a small quantity of materials due to his logging on a bit early to get them, he began thinking about potentially acquiring a new weapon. He did not mind the standard bronze sword already in his inventory, but swords were not necessarily his forte as far as weapons went.

"I should probably get going then," Ardeel noted. "Best be prepared for the-" His speech was interrupted by a sudden observation. As he was about to exit the inventory menu, he noted something was missing. Something important.

((Most of them seem to be out of the town, but my character's still there))

 

[Alita the Pun]

((TBH, I'm a little lost as to what is happening... can anyone give me a summary of what has happened and who is grouped together?))
