The stakes WERE high. Everyone lived, worked, and played in the Oasis. If you lost everything you had accumulated, it would be like losing your car, home, bank account, clothes, literally everything, all at once. Alive? Sure. But level 1. Penniless. Everyone lived in poverty, but the Oasis was an opportunity to escape into something better.

Even if it were just a game, losing all the gear you’d spent thousands of hours grinding for would be a devastating. But then character reset’s also tied to real-world finances and opportunities? Short of anything truly “life or death”, that’s about as high-stakes as you can get. 😮

@@DraconimLt Congrats, you have now entered an age long discussion on which is better. Savable progress or hard resets. There is no short answer to this but I doubt you want an essay as a response. So I will try and keep a simple overview of this. Traditional games will go the safe route letting people save their characters and progress as they play and adding respawn points that don't make you loose too much progress, etc. However, a lot of these games have a common theme that once you beat the game and have the high end gear, the inventive to keep playing drops significantly. So, the proposition for a more high stakes setup came up, where progress could be permanently lost along with gear, items, currency, etc. The reason this idea came up was that even though people might lose and have to reset, they were not losing the ability to still reach the objective. They would just have to put more work into it, progress again, and cross the point they failed at. Now, I do believe in real gaming, this is taken at a half measure and is not as penalizing as the Oasis. But the debate of the possible viability of a high stakes game has been open to discussion for years. Some games have made a crack at it. But no major end titles yet. My bet is the Oasis has a "limited" storage system but your avatar could not be tied to it. Enough to get you going in the event of a reset but not so much that you would be permanently rich.

@@DraconimLt Have you ever played EVE: Online? There are no "Save" options, and every place has the potential to shift to PvP -- even the normally safe "core" systems -- if someone pays the "War Declaration" fees. When you go into combat in an expensive ship in that game, it can represent hundreds of hours of play. If you lose it, you lose most of the effort that went into it, even if you managed to successfully salvage parts -- but that never happens, because the ship(s) that killed you usually loot the wreck before you can get back to it. That makes combat in EVE: Online *surrealistically* intense. It's a continuous shot of adrenaline straight to the brain. And when you *win* ? 🤯🥳😲😊 No game offers anything like it.

​@@christopherpoet458 I get what you are saying, but I also think that whole 'hard reset' thing only works if you have a game that actually has an end, cos then you have to restart but the end is only a certain distance away. But the Oasis is open ended, so it doesn't really work. Unless you have a way to save your stuff, or at least a certain amount of it. Like a bank in the real world. Personally I wouldn't play a console game without a save option tbh. I can still replay it from the start again if I choose to. But in the case of something like the Oasis, I think a bank system would be best. I get it's meant to be based off real life in that sense, but in real life - short of (permanent) death, people don't lose *everything* very often (hopefully), but in the Oasis 'death' isn't permanent. It's therefore more like being knocked out or something, so you restart, which doesn't happen after real death (unless you believe in reincarnation, and then you'd be reborn a baby with some sort of support system so...), so in real life most of your stuff would still be there at home or in the bank when you 'wake up'. - You should lose everything on you, but have the option to not carry everything - it would work on a balance scale of risk vs reward - the more you carry the more you *might* win by being more prepared, but the more you might also lose if you fail, vs carry less to risk less, but have less chance of winning, you know?

The story behind the Easter egg in Adventure is actually really beautiful. Back then Atari didn’t allow coders to have their names in the credits. It actually caused them to be unable to really argue for more royalties, because there was no official recognition of their contribution. Games that sold millions of copies only got their creators a few thousand dollars. The maker of Adventure wanted to have their name in there somewhere, so they hid it behind some convoluted actions that were impossible for his bosses to accidentally stumble upon. It was only discovered by a kid after the creator had quit working for Atari. Back then game code was physically built into the computer chips (read-only memory), so removing the Easter egg would mean redesigning their chips and assembly line, so Atari decided to let it go. Not technically the first secret in a game, but the first secret to be named an Easter egg.

⁠agreed. For one, the stakes are much higher. Two, the existential questions emerge with a lot more clarity. What I WILL say is thst Spielberg inserting the Shining sequences is a smuch like Halliday and Morrow as we have in real life. A very famous take on the movie "A.I." is essentially that Steven made it for Stanley, because he died before it ever got made or finished (I believe he wrote several drafts of the script). In that way, referencing his old friend in a thing so far removed from what his friend would have imagined is a very touching thing to do.

They ate ingame and it gave them the sensation of eating and fullness. While irl the body was withering away. Limits to the vr had to be reached. What they did was set up a timer system. An alarm would go off and then if they didnt leave they would be kicked out. Once out they would not be let back in until ate, exercised, and showered.

One major aspect thats important to note is that The Oasis isn't "a game" in the strictest definition. It is more involved than that. It is a Virtual Reality within which one CAN play games. Also important - sonce you mentioned something about people not working and just going into VR, Nat - is that theres a system in place where a person can gain VR currency and have it converted into Real Currency. As such there are definitely activities in The Oasis that can actually pay very well. If I'm being honest, i would love a full dive VRMMO like this or really almost any genre. This one is a perfect Anything Goes kind of environment. But a specialized one such as a modern world with superheroes could be fun, or maybe you can be a special secret Government Operative like James Bond. Or Hell even a Dungeons & Dragons VRMMO. The possibilities really are endless. But fun as Hell if you're in to that stuff; which Iam.

This was a fun movie for everyone that's played video games and even seeing their avatars was cool. Great soundtrack. May I suggest these films for Patreon: Scanners, Shipwrecked, Condorman, The Seventh Voyage Of Sinbad, the original Time Machine, Let The Right One In, and it's remake, Let Me In.

When you said 'are these 2 going to have a crush on each other', I mean, we all know how it works, but she was an avatar - he's lucky she was even female in 'real life', let alone attractive... As for the 'closing of the Oasis on Tues and Thurs', that's great - unless those are the only days someone is able to spend on there for whatever reason. IMO they should have made it so everyone can only spend a certain number of days on it in a row or something like that instead, to be more fair to everyone.

I really, REALLY would encourage you to check out the book, as well. Or the Audiobook read by Wil Wheaton. The quests are different, more involved, and there were more steps. Start with a riddle, find the location of the first key, complete a challenge to get the key, get a riddle to the gate, complete a COMPLETELY different challenge, get a riddle to the next key... Some of the tech they've got in the book sounds a lot better, too XD Edit: They didn't include a server lag joke because they explain in the book that every user connected to the OASIS is also adding their system to a massive processing network. So the more users connected, the greater the processing power of the OASIS itself.

Spielberg and Kubrick were pretty close friends. So getting to recreate The Shining for the movie was a pretty cool love letter to his friend. I really enjoyed this movie when I saw it at release. It’s rubbed off on me a bit now and at times I think it’s got a very cringy self assured feel, this whole thing of only true gamers are capable of seeing the truth, and Wade being considered an acceptable hero and a decent guy for falling in love with an avatar and then the story kinda congratulating him for looking past the fact she’s not as good looking IRL, when he explicitly fell in love with how she doesn’t appear. Idk man, the recent bout of 80s nostalgia thing with the exception of Stranger Things has kinda drained me a bit how excessive it’s gotten lately. It’s still a pretty entertaining movie, loved the Iron Giant’s appearance just on the basis of that being an underrated movie and I’m happy to see him represented in movies. It’s well made and well acted and the heart’s there but this is like a 5 or 6/10 movie for me. Just imo.

So in the book its less about true gamers and more about gunters. The easter egg hunters. The people who put in the effort to study Halliday and his perspective. The people who are against capitalism running amok. The book also doesn't congratulate Wade. Firstly, nobody meets in person until literally the last few pages and secondly Wade gets a brutal reality check from Art3mis after he tries to say he's in love with her at the club which sends him into a depressive spiral he has to make his way out of. They also make it clear that Art3mis's avatar is almost identical to her real world appearance except for the one facial feature she wishes she didn't have which means they have the same body type which is a body type that is not typically seen in hollywood. That facial feature that i mentioned is in the movie and its what their conversations about her appearance are meant to allude to in the real world but the book makes it explicit and the feature is executed in a way more subtle way in the movie than the book describes it.

The story, much more so in the book, was made for us nerds that were actually there throughout the 80's and experienced all of this stuff when it happened. The games, computer systems and movies all faithfully referenced. I recall talking with others back then in the local arcade about that easter egg in Adventure and how excited I was when I went home and performed it myself. Sometimes I really miss the 80's.

Sooo happy you watched this. It is a really fun and nostalgic movie! But too bad Nat didnt understand gaming as much as she said she did. In an online multi world system, players could spend years building up their avatars. And the stakes get higher the longer you've been building. Because of the draw the Oasis had on people, it becomes an addiction. That's why the people in the real world lose their minds when their avatar gets killed. Some would have no doubt committed suicide because of the loss. Its a real addiction people have in the real world today. That's why the movie ended with them shutting down the Oasis twice a week. It tells the audience to get out of our computers and cell phones and go outside and do stuff unplugged.

Obviously hinting that IOI went to his apartment and pushed him out the window. Oh and each of them had a mecha like Daito's, which was obtained by doing a side quest in an old arcade room. The one thing that always amazed me about this movie was how he was able to get so many rights for all the easter eggs.
