When the world's first virtual reality MMORPG comes out...
Will you be playing it?
That is, an mmorpg that requires you to enter virtual reality. I suspect we'll be seeing this soon. Within 2 or 3 years soon.
Why 2 or 3 years?
With Google Glass on the horizon, people are already finding inventive virtual reality things to do [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jpWiTVR0GA]such as this[/url]. But it's not just Google Glass.
Remember the [url=http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=484920]Oculus Rift[/url] virtual reality headset Kickstarter? It ended, and the guys got a whopping 2.4 MILLION dollars to budget their project with. It seems more and more like the industry is on the verge of going in this direction.
Games like Doom 3 and Hawken are confirmed to support Oculus Rift and will be the first time the current HD generation can be experience in virtual reality.
After Oculus Rift and Google Glass are released, we'll see Indie Developers and professional Devs alike start to release games in an all new medium, and it's only a matter of time before we see the world's first Virtual Reality MMO in this and future generations. Such an MMO will probably attract a huge audience, or, at the very least, a sizable community that will remain active for a long, long time. When such a time comes, will you be willing to give it a go?
How far would it have to go to lure you in, and how far would it have to go to turn you away?

OK so think about it would that happen to something like this that hasn't even gone past the gaming world (so to speak) it would probably never bring an idea like this back up for any thing including medical uses and gaming. but seriously i highly doubt that this people would immediately think of using it as a weapon. But i would love to see this come true and i would love to see such a game as Sao come to life.
