A New World, an immersive game experience

A full dive VR game has been released, A New World. While it is not the only VR game in the world, this one has one advantage over others: Being able to play it even while sleeping. Like one would think, many people jumped to try and claim the first headsets. Mostly gamers, but some other types of people too. Our MC, Eldrian, is naturally a gamer who could not wait but to try it. Quickly he and everyone else who bought the headsets found themselves in a world, not just a game. While realism is nice and all, the amount they were given was just too much... Players started taking emotional tolls from playing the game, and when the company made a shocking announcement. This was amplified. -------------------------- Chapter Length: 1500-2000 words (Chapters 1-390ish) Chapter Length: 1200-1400 words (Chapters 390-?) --------------------------

Shift in goals

Eldrian considered Constantin one of the few friends he had within the company. One of two, actually. Joren would be the other. 

Not that he considered himself close to either. But he thought their beliefs aligned. They were each stuck in their own situation. Trapped and forced to move forward. But their core beliefs were morally sound. Or so he hoped was still true. 

And due to this, Eldrian knew where Constnatin's drive came from. Why he had continued to try, and why he was the one to succeed. Yet, Eldrian did not know why the company would decide to make this public. 

Did they fear Eldrian would catch them with their pants down? Eldrian doubted it. If they did, something would have happened already. Perhaps they were afraid to antagonize him, seeing as what he had once wrought upon their militant division. But that wasn't the only way things could be approached.

Hostages were a powerful, if terribly dangerous, tool.
