After you used up your quota of safe death, your character will be deleted.
There was no body that is immune to damage, always working properly even in death’s door.
There was no eternal youth, there was no undying immortal avatar.
You won’t be able to learn endless skills to prepare for the endless occasions you might have encountered.
You can’t equip all kinds of high-level armor and weapon to steamroll all opposition.
Having legendary equipment doesn’t make you automatically invincible and unbeatable.... more>>

In the age where all kinds of distinct and popular games had countless varieties of clones, being such a hard and demanding game was not a pro. Even the game banking on a sense of accomplishment doing a hard to achieve task as an attractive factor – where even the trash mob could kill unaware veteran player – was already so cliche. This is the time where putting an advertisement of “this game is a hyper-realistic VR game, 99.9 % indistinguishable from reality.” won’t cut it anymore.

Among the copious amounts of the game with similar genre, such a game with ridiculous rule and high difficulty is the kind of a game Finn wouldn’t bother to check up. But it was free to play; he could check it for a while and delete it when it doesn’t pass his standard. After all, what’s the use of a game if it was not fun and engaging? <<less

Sigh... Well, no use to keep questioning it... There is always shelter in games.

As as it happens, a certain newcomer is about to give us some insight into what that world is like, from a level 1 weakling onwards.

Though, something about this MMO is odd, can't put my finger on what exactly... but it feels... off.
