Today is the day the first VRMMO comes out. Otus and many others have already preordered the game as well with the system to play it. To be exact over 50 million people pre-ordered it. Some reviewers say it is one of the greatest games of all time. Otus had to save up 500 dollars to buy it.
Ding!
Otus hears his doorbell. A man with a box, pen, and paper was at his door. It was the game! Otus was overfilled with joy.
“Alright, Mr…. Otus could you please sign here.”
“Alright, thank you!”
“No problem”
The man walks away and Otus slams his front door and runs to his room.
As he reads the instructions he gets even more excited. The system was quite easy to set up. All you had to do was plug the headset into the wall and play! The headset sort of looked like the one from an anime he watched some time ago. He decides not to read the booklet for the game because he thought it was self-explanatory.
Otus puts on the headset and enters the game. The game was an RPG called ‘World’. Otus thought it was a dumb name but from all of the gameplay he had seen, it did not matter. The game is set in a medieval world but with monsters and magic. What caught his attention to the game was all of the classes and races you could choose from. Each race has a side they are on. Otus wants to be on the evil side so he is gonna choose a random race on the evil side. As he was thinking about what race he would be he suddenly teleported to a white room. He couldn’t believe how real the game looked. A screen pops up.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

“These races look amazing! They even added some new ones!”
As he was looking through the races and checking their stats and skills he clicked something he shouldn’t have. He clicked the random button.
“AHHHHH SCREW ME WHY DID I HAVE TO CHOOSE THAT!?”
A bright light covers Otus.
Forgetting about what happened he was teleported to a town filled with all of the evil races. It was filled with every race except one. The skeleton race. Which was obvious because it was a garbage race. All of the base stats were at 1. The only skill it had was Play Dead. Which means you just lie on the ground and all of your bones fly all over the place to make it look more real.
As he was looking at all of the amazing creatures everyone near him started to look at him. He noticed this and got a little scared. He was going to wave at the people as a friendly gesture but as he lifted his arm he noticed something. It was just bone. FUCK. Otus knew what had happened. He chose the skeleton race. The same one he just said was garbage.
