This week’s sudden break in immersion, brought to us por an automated system maintenance warning, brought to mind something I hadn’t really thought about until now. Just how much of ALO’s playerbase participates in roleplay? It’s always been a big part of MMOs and I can only imagine it would become even mais widespread with the introduction of VR as immersive as that displayed por SAO and ALO. To the player, the world must seem real – just how many of these people actually live out fictional lives within the game, going beyond merely playing to hit things with a stick? Kirito and Leafa...

Here i just give you my take on SAO. And for why i like it so much.

Sword Art Online is a really good Anime. I used to hate SAO. I used to think it was a ripoff of .hack//, but one time I was at Game Stop and I saw them advertising a trailer and talking about the SAO lost Song game on the GameStop TV.

I doubt she’d be able to urso the idea that others were fighting while she spent all her time having fun with Kirito. Heck, we can actually see a little bit of discontent from Kirito at points during the episode – he’s...

Kanji lyrics

いつからかこの胸で揺れてる光 手放したくはない
遠回りしても 躓いてもここに
ずっと ずっと 光ってる…

遠くに聞こえた鐘の音が少し寂しくて
もう一度強く今度は高く駆け抜けた

ただ繰り返す現実も星の数の願い事も
目指すべき明日を見つけた この想いには勝てない

目の前に開かれた果てない世界 たとえ仮想(ゆめ)でもいい
迷い続けても胸の奥で強くずっとずっと響いてく

幼いリボンを捨てた夜から見た夢は
輝いた街で理想の日々を送ってた...
