In the meantime he would collect some information that available about the game. The official name for the machine is to long so the community gave it nickname capsule it derived from it shaped that like tube. The information he got are scarce, some are from official teaser video that have 10 minute duration and other are from some first user that lucky enough to be able to play the game on exhibition in game conference. There are other source about earlier version and it came from military personnel. From their testimony, the first generation are taste like hell. Because sometime it give side effect like pain level that are too high or sometime give us nausea and other are delay in our response because our body action isn't synchronize with our brain yet after enter virtual space. But the following year, the experience they're describe was 180 degrees from before. It was like bliss and all side effect are gone.
