[Theronus]

Nah, we're still 8 years away.
But I'll start saving money just in case.

[Realsykes]

Why did you show this to me, now I have to save loads of money for something hypothetical.

I hate you.

If it comes out, it will be expensive.

[Darksoldierr]

There is season 2? Thats kinda weird. The story from 1 kinda sucked at end .
Stupid hero revival from dead scene.

It has it's ups and downs, personally I found it interesting, although the second season kind of sucked...to an extent. The third season is what's coming out, idc if you count both of those as the first, that's two separate seasons to me, so the Gun Gale story arc is the third.

They have covered two arcs..

There is room for two more arc (probably going to do the same as last season and include both arcs). Anyways, if someone feels nostalgic about it, they can go watch Accel World which takes place in the same universe only 40+ years later.

Tomorrow? Sailor Moon and SA:O 2 the same day? Fuck yea!!!
Also the VR looks interesting until you get locked in there of course. Ha.

Oh come on!! you have a pic of Kuroyukihime as your avatar!!
You should know that by the time Accel World starts, they have already figured out the bugs... well.. those bugs anyways.

So whoever gets trapped in there, will have to wait less than 40 years.

Why would anyone want this? Didn't a third of SAO's user base die? That doesn't sound like a marketable product.

That was in the anime.

Anyways, VR is probably the next great innovation/frontier that awaits gaming. It seems we have exhausted most ideas that can be plausibly be attained, and now, we're just doing we what we know.

Kudos to Occulus Rift and whatnot.

Keep gaming alive.

Preeeeeetty sure that was a joke.

Is it the same universe? I've seen both shows, and I know they were made by the same person, but I wasn't aware it was the same universe. Guess that makes sense, all things considered. Good shows, indeed.


Anyway, on topic, it looks interesting, but it's kind of worthless. You can move your head around and see a field. In order for it to actually be interesting you'd have to be able to control everything your character can do, and that's a *long* way off, if it ever even happens.

I'd love to see it, but it just seems very far fetched for now.

There's actually room for a shit ton of arcs. The first season only covers the Aincrad and Fairy Dance arcs, the first 4 books in a 15 book series that's still ongoing. Season 2 may only cover book 5 and 6, depending on how they pace the story it could also include books 7 and 8.

I would hope bugs like that don't exsist ever, but, I wouldn't mind being stuck with a Kuroyukihime :c

[Zython]

Yeah, I know SAO's fiction and there's no real danger in VR (well, except maybe if you walk with it on, but that's their damned fault). I just think that marketing VR with SAO is akin to using Freddy Krueger to sell Nyquil. It's just not the image you want for your product.

Very.

Someone has probably already said this (haven't read all the posts and it's pretty late so Im not gonna:P) but Oculus Rift is really cheap. It's only going to be around $300 when it comes out and will most likely get even cheaper when the competition arrives.
