After the release of the Oculus Rift in early 2016, great strides had been taken in full immersion VR technology. By the year 2018, the DDVIS (Directed Dream Virtual Immersion System) was released to the public, and with it, the world changed. New businesses and enterprises were formed around the system, creating a economic-technological revolution even more significant than the dot-com bubble in the late 1990s, and without any crash coming afterward.
By 2025, full-dive MMORPGs have become a hot commodity, becoming nearly a $20 billion industry, with a number of different frontrunners for eating the time of the consumers who play the games. However, in the past months, a new game has entered the market. Strange as it seems, a F2P game, CyberDream, has started taking a market share, in spite of the stigma around the genre. The game is considered an oddity, to be sure.
A free game, with only the stipulation that players are only allowed to make a single character, and that if the character were killed, they would be barred from play forever. Citing dangers from different speculative fictions, many investigations have gone into the game, made by a complete unknown developer, to prevent any misuse of the technologies. Still, nothing has been found.
Is it just a game, or is there something more going on?
It all begins with a matchmaking system. A party of players from across the globe will find a secret behind CyberDream, one which they would never have imagined...
Right, so this is CyberDream, my current project of interest. As mentioned in the hook, this is going to take place in the eponymous MMORPG, with some possible real world scenes. The game itself is based around modern military with a bit of a Metal Gear sort of technological bent. Players are allowed use of pretty much any handheld weaponry they can think of due to the highly immersive/flexible nature of the game.
I'm looking to have 4-6 players including myself, and if there are any questions, feel free to ask me.
