>So... everyone has to wear shades outside all the time, and your computers automatically censor the eyes in any images?

Nah, Shades are just a fashion item. The worlds code was made so that all PCs eyes are censored. NPCs don't hold that code, so they're fine.

>What about a drawing of eyes?

Nah, drawings are just image files.

So... do you live in this world, or are PCs outside players that are jacked in?

I dunno'.

Does it matter? Regardless of either, I'm still a college student studying illustration in Ohio.

Oh by the way, you guys have the option of a Data Swap. Since Sean is a playable character, you can switch to him if he wants you to. He's cool with it, but you can stay with me if that's what you want.

Choice is yours.

What do you wanna do?

Grind for levels.

What does being a PC mean beyond having voices in your hand and not being able to see other PCs' eyes? Do you have any special Player Character abilities like gaining skills at an unusually fast rate, storing an arbitrarily large number of objects in an 'inventory', eating and metabolizing food instantaneously, or rewinding time through sheer Determination?

>What does being a PC mean beyond having voices in your hand and not being able to see other PCs' eyes? Do you have any special Player Character abilities like gaining skills at an unusually fast rate, storing an arbitrarily large number of objects in an 'inventory', eating and metabolizing food instantaneously, or rewinding time through sheer Determination?

Well, the general difference betwen PCs and NPCs is that a PC has both an Inventory, where they are able to keep a multitude of objects that tend to be both important to quests, and larger than the average person could casually carry, and a Stat Screen.

That Stat Screen covers a few topics. We have Levels, which tends to mean how physically skilled a PC is at some hidden stats, that you may or may not be able to unlock eventually. We also have Type, which generally means a persons age. YA stands for Young Adult.

There's abilities, which are specific latent abilities unique to each PC that can give them certain boosts depending on the situation, think pokemon.

Finally, there's Aura. Aura is the general mood that a PC will give off in the environment.

Also, nice reference.

>Grind for levels.

Grinding isn't really a thing in this world. You level up by finishing tasks, and different tasks level up not only your general level, but some specific hidden stats that were talked about earlier.

Do you wish to go do some tasks?

>Do you wish to go do some tasks?
Sure. What's on our task / quest list.

You currently have no items relevant to this NPC.

>Reflect!

While Kenzie looks at you for awhile awkwardly, you reflect on something about Kenzie.

You know that she runs an online webcomic.

"Uh Connor...you alright?"

You have gained the new option INTERESTS.


>"Not much, just making sure I don't go crazy alone in my room."

Kenzie smiles warmly at the comment. "Oh yeah, same here dude. Good thing I have this job or I'd just be watching Steven Universe all day."

Congratulations! You've gotten one social connection! Get four more social connections and you'll have won the social interaction!

You've learned something about Kenzie! You've stored it in your Reflection tab. These facts are free for you to use immediately when used in the same conversation that you've learned them, but will need to be reflected on in future interactions.

Ask about the webcomic.

Ask what specifically? And how are you gonna word it? You've got to be specific in this game, or else you'll just look like a moron!

You could reflect on the comics to remember more about it, or you could ask about what you know already.

Reflect on what you know about the webcomic (aside from the fact that it exists).

Ask what you know about the comic so far.

>Ask what you know about the comic so far.

HOW do you ask about it though? In a Social Interaction, you're the voice. You have total control over what you say, and it's important that you think about how to phrase things!

>Reflect on what you know about the webcomic (aside from the fact that it exists).

You choose to reflect on the comic, and remember that it deals with Kenzie and the ghost of a mummy exploring a world after the universe shatters.

Kenzie is getting a bit confused over the silence. If you don't talk soon, you may loose your Social Connection.

Your APATHY ability kicks in, allowing you to continue the conversation without caring if Kenzie is weierded out by your random block of silence.

Kenzie is luckily used to your way of talking, and you continue your conversation normally.

"It does, but I love doing it. I can still hunker down in my room and do it though, Haha!"

Kenzie smiles happily.

You Gain One Social Connection!

You figure that you've learned the basics of this game so far. Seeing as you said hello to Kenzie, you fulfilled your first task.

You feel one of your stats upgrade, but it will take a few more levels to observe them.

You say a brief goodbye to Kenzie.

"See you, have a good day!"

You also notice that the task screen actually has a font layout.

Sounds good. You use a spawn point to quickly get back to your room. You gotta admit that being a PC has its perks sometimes.

Witty. Very Witty.

>Check what you have to eat.

Being in college makes it difficult to eat healthy. Do you have anything particularly substantial?

If you have a hot plate or a shared dorm kitchen it's actually not that hard to *make* the food, just to store it before cooking. (so long as your dorm mates stop fucking stealing your cookware! What do you even need three cooking knives for?!)

Tell me what you've got and we might be able to suggest something decent out of it.

You stroll into the kitchen to both grab the garbage bag, which you do immediately, and check what you have to eat.

You currently have a box of fruity cereal, a half eaten jar of peanut butter, a box of raisins, and a 1/4 full box of spaghetti.

You could try to make something, or go down to the cafeteria to eat.

Peanut butter, raisins, and that cereal would actually mix pretty well to make a pretty good snack(like a breakfast bar); but the cafeteria might be a better bet for now.

Hmm, that actually does sound kinda good, but a savory meal sounds like a plan. You hold off on taking out the trash yet, and quickly use a spawn point to get to the cafeteria.

Whew...that point was a little far away, took a little out of you.
