Chapter
One. Return to Barliona
“Welcome to Barliona. While the capsule configuration is in progress, please
review the latest update notes…”
A soothing female voice began to list
off the updated game mechanics and their particularities; however, I’d already
examined these back in reality. Stacey had summarized the major changes to me:
The level of the Emperor NPCs had been raised from 500 to 1000, which meant
that even a dozen scrolls of Armageddon wouldn’t pose any danger to these
characters. The levels of Advisers and Heralds had also been raised to 900 and
800 respectively. Meanwhile, the developers had played a mean trick on the
players and removed the max stat cap entirely. Now, the most stubborn among us
could increase their stats infinitely. At the same time, the stat points gained
from every new level had been decreased. The gaming forums immediately burst
into flames with the outrage of high-level players who had long ago reached
their maximum stat points and therefore lost the bonuses from all the levels
they had gained since. Still, the Corporation stayed firm and no one would be
receiving any extra bonuses. The greatest concession here was that players were
still permitted to allocate the unused stat points they had saved up, and at
least now everyone knew what the deal was. We’d have to be happy with that at
least.
