    Steven Spielberg ventured into the world of Virtual Reality with Ready Player One this year, bringing us into the OASIS. Wade AKA Parzival teamed up with Olivia AKA Art3mis to take on the big bad guys from I.O.I in order to go on an Easter Egg hunt. This movie raises a WHOLE lot of questions. What’s up with the inconsistent VR tech? Why did Halliday try to get people to go into the real world by making them dive into the world of VR? What’s up with the thousands of pop culture references? Why are I.O.I. and Nolan Sorento considered super evil when the OASIS is ALREADY profiting off of gamers and taking over their lives? Step inside the pitch meeting that led to Ready Player One. It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Instead Hollywood decided to go with some kind of boomer friendly, stereotype-validating "spending everyday playing video games is bad lol". I'm sad Ernest Cline didn't veto that.

      Kyle knew it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he lied.
      The caller never got the reference. He kept calling angrily, asking why Kyle had told him it'd be easy when it wasn't. Kyle responding with "whoops" or "I don't know" or asking him to get all the way off his back about it only seemed to make the caller angrier.
      His boss had a stern talk with him about the recurring problems. His why-question being correctly answered "Because" didn't evoke the expected "Fair enough" response.
      It is a mad world we live in, where people don't know references to Ryan George's Pitch Meetings series.
      Kyle got fired from his job. But he returned to his former office, did a backflip, snapped the bad guy's neck and saved the day.
      The murder sentence was unjustified. Kyle got thrown into solitary confinement in one of the securest prisons in the United States. Escaping from there was impossible.
      Actually, it was super-easy, barely an inconvenience, so now Kyle is back among the living, carrying Pitch Meeting quotes to the uneducated and improving their silly ignorant lives.
      _The end._

      There are other logistical issues with that plan as well. Is that Tuesdays and Thursdays Cleveland time? So wouldn't that just mean people in certain parts of the world would have an advantage by playing at more convenient times? Or would it be the entirety of Tuesdays and Thursdays across the whole globe? Which would actually mean it would technically stretch from half-way through Monday to half-way through Friday depending on where you lived.

      I do not know the book, but it is pretty easy to solve that problem: If you unplug before you are in a safe spot or completed a level, your character is going to die with all the money. So nobody wants or can let that happen since most existences are related to the OASIS nowadays. So unplugging would render them useless against the bad guys and so they do not do that. Pretty simple mechanic that would just explain it all and very close to real video games too.

    • @Sue_D_Nymn
      @Sue_D_Nymn 6 лет назад +28

      If we're talking real applications of haptic suits, there are a number of reasons they could be useful, though any "pain" indications would be minimal as in more of a nudge instead of actual pain. There was a special I watched about one in development that the person could feel the virtual breeze that had been programmed. This could be useful for greater immersion and other avenues for sensory input like texture, resistance, ... and of course the mature content you mention.

    • @aesthera.
      @aesthera. 5 лет назад +13

      In the book, pain could be optionally turned off. The advantage from the suit was, obviously you could use it for pleasure, but it also gave a sense of surrounding and immersion. You could better tell if someone was behind you, feel a tap on the shoulder, feel like you were actually holding something, etc. The Oasis was posed as an alternative to reality, where people went to thoroughly escape their real lives.

His main character just so happens to have mastered every single thing that the plot's challenges require, unless the plot requires him to have a gap in that otherwise godlike and encyclopedic skillset or knowledge just long enough for him to somehow overcome that with his godlike and encyclopedic knowledge or skillset. It's fun the first couple times, and then it just gets tedious.

      Madwurst I don't agree about the book being improved; because what Haliday cared most about was getting people to love what he loved. That was his goal. Sure he was worried about people spending too much time in the Oasis, but I don't think he cared nearly as much about that as introducing people to all the things that he loved most in the world.
      Furthermore, he was a brilliant game designer (meaning he could code everything himself). While having no experience creating things in the real world so he would have needed to get people to help do everything with setting up the hunt. Then he would have had to kill them all to make sure that no one told people where the eggs were.
      Finally, travel in the real is extremely dangerous and expensive; and sure travel in the Oasis isn't cheap and safe either; but it's so much cheaper and safer than real world travel in the book's universe. So a real world egg hunt would have given an even bigger advantage to companies and rich individuals.

    The Oasis isn’t a game, it’s a virtual world that contains, well a lot of games. But some people get their entire education inside Oasis schools, people work inside of it, shop, do just about everything really, and it’s FREE for anyone to access. IOI was going to completely monetize it, effectively cutting off the Oasis to the lower classes. The movie did a poor job of explaining how integral Oasis was to a society that had fallen quite low.

      This is true for some existing games . In Diablo III, for exampe, your character can die when you disconnect, because it takes time to quit. And I think in some games ping also might be a reason.
      Many of the book features were not explained in movie. The book itself hardly a best-seller, but it makes some sense. Movie just looses most of it.
