WTAF? Reality gone weird. VR ‘Headset That Kills the User If They Die in the Game’.

I have seen Sword Art Online. A big part of the storyline is the players did not know the whole "your headset kills you if you die in the game". They were playing what was supposed to be a normal video game. The creator of the game was in the game with them.

People outside the game did not know what was happening to the people inside the game. They only knew they couldn't disconnect anyone from the game without killing them and sometimes people just died.

So, the people outside the game didn't know who to punish. Because other game developers who were also victims, not perps, were stuck in the game as well.

The guy in the game did not care about the legality or morality of what he was doing.

But, the people who weren't stuck in the game and didn't even do anything wrong were sued out of business.

There were traps in the game that would kill people, too.

It is a good anime, but damn. It is sick someone would try to make this even as "office art".

Also, you don't get to play as a character. You have to play as yourself. So, you have to be in athletic AND very good at games. You can't improve your physical stats because irl, you are in a coma.

It would be illegal. And between criminal charges, trillion dollar law suits if your loved one died, or just ending the fucker swiftly in revenge, which I could really see happening these bastards if the courts don't step up, this guy isn't legally able to do this.
