Changes | Final part
Moris was walking the streets. Aizen asked him to buy the new VR, so he came. Aizen did not like to leave the house.
The city looked peaceful today, People walked the streets with a smile on their faces. Glider cars carried passengers to their destination. Other people walked as they stared at the floating screen in front of them. Augmented reality. People nowadays don't use Smartphones anymore, even though TV still exists (with augmented reality). Walking a little further, you could see humans with mechanical body parts, such as arms and legs.
City:
After walking for a few more minutes, Moris arrived in front of a building with more than 200 floors.
"Welcome to DoMinus center, what do you want?" The receptionist greeted Moris
"I want the newest VR model from DoMinus, the most comfortable version possible. White color. Besides, I also want all kinds of Supplements, the best possible quality."
"Okay, the total is 1.7 million Zen." Zen is the local currency.
"Here it is." After paying, Moris get the supplements. Supplements serve to keep a person's body healthy during the game. This is not necessary for anyone playing with the first VR, as it is only connected with the brain. The second VR is connected with the person's entire body.
After waiting a moment, he received the VR. Moris didn't open the VR because he knew Aizen wanted to see it firsthand. He paid for a glider car and took the VR home.

Aizen looked at the giant box in front of him. The new VR looked cool, when he opened the box, he saw what the new VR looked like.
The VR looked like a coffin (format), but much prettier. White with golden ornaments.
'The supplements serve to enhance the rejuvenating effect and make your body healthy.'

Supplements do not affect game mechanics or anything like that. They were just things that very rich people would buy to feel more comfortable and increase the rejuvenating effect, but they wouldn't help any further.
The new VR wouldn't change the game mechanics either. Players who want to play on the old VR will not be harmed at all.
'These guys don't want to go easy on the rich.' Of course, the rich will always have an advantage, however minimal. However, other players could easily make up for it.
Now that the currency exchange system has been added, players will be able to make the game their profession. As the exchange system only enables the player to convert the game currency to real money, the rich will not be able to take advantage of it again.
After installing the new VR in his room, he decided to get back into the game. When he entered VR, he felt his body taking the supplements.
'Link Start.'

While Aizen was at stake, the world was a little turbulent. The Arcane Universe had a gigantic explosion of new players. The second batch of VR sold out within hours. The number of players already exceeds 1 billion. That's a huge milestone. With the arrival of new players en masse, things within the game will start to change. Who would be affected by these changes? What will come from now on?

FÓRUM:
>Fame and Honor | Hot topic☆
>Hi, it's me, Haz. You're tired of seeing me, aren't you? Well... in today's thread, I'm going to explain about Honor and Fame. I spent many traveling between cities and ended up noticing interesting things. I found unique quests that require a certain level of Fame and Honor to accept them. Furthermore, I also witnessed a change in the behavior of NPCs towards players who had a certain level of Honor and Fame.

>After spending some more time trying to get information, I found that Fame and Honor can influence missions, business, the way you are seen, etc. It may seem small, but this is VERY important because Guilds or players with high Fame and Honor can even select special quests in the adventurers' guild, if available.
>The last information I discovered is a bit confusing. As I said, Fame and Honor influence the way people look at you. I found out about… the official guild and team system
Players who read the Haz thread felt that this guy just dropped an atomic bomb on the gaming community.
—The official guild system
That was the atomic bomb.
The official guild system had yet to be discovered. Guilds were still guilds and such; however, they could not enjoy all the functions that an officially recognized guild had. The first one was communication.
Guilds communicated with players (mass communication) through the real world. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't practical.
The second and main problem was recognition. Guilds created by players were not recognized as guilds by NPCs, therefore they could not do guild quests that are requested by NPCs, buy land on behalf of the guild, etc.
When a guild was officially recognized, it would unlock the teleport function. Players could teleport to the bases created by the guild. This function is extremely important, especially in wars.
Buying land on behalf of the guild is also very important. Guilds need money to support themselves. Currently, they were going through a rough patch, most of the members didn't even have decent equipment. Why not build restaurants or stores to sell your items? Guilds often have useless gear, but it would be useful for low-level players.
—Our Heroes
Our Heroes, So what people call groups of adventurers. Our Heroes are people who decided to form a group to help each other, explore, and complete quests without having to join a guild and sign a bunch of contracts. They are much freer.
In Arcane Universe, solo players are growing quite fast. What would happen if they created groups to go head-to-head with guilds? Many players prefer to join adventurous groups than guilds.
The main difference between a group of adventurers and a guild is the freedom and number of members. Adventurer groups don't have as many members as a guild.
Our Heroes can also use the teleport function in their bases, communication, etc.
>I found out that for the system to officially recognize a guild, you need a token. This token can be acquired in many ways, by quests, Boss Drop, or pure luck. Well, I wish you all the best of luck.
Haz finished his post.
Guild leaders were elated when they read the post. They urgently needed this Token. The first guilds that get the Token will have advantages. A guild needs expansion. Needs to grow up. This Token was just the beginning of his goals.

Dungeons Are Bad Business
Vee Vales has been kicked out of his home and directed to make his own way in the world. Along with his friend Alforde Armorsoul, Vee travels to the city of Oar's Crest. Once a prosperous and well-to-do city, Oar's Crest has fallen into depression and disrepair. After finding a strange stone that takes up residence in a tattered top hat and introduces itself as Reginald, Vee and Alforde decide to open a dungeon in Oar's Crest to revitalize the city and, more importantly, make some fleurs. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: Dungeons are Bad Business (DABB) is a slow burn slice-of-life dungeon core litRPG citybuilder that's focused on the day to day experience of running a dungeon. There will be some action, but it won't be the focus of the story and Vee and his friends will usually overcome their problems with their minds and their pocketbooks instead of their weapons. Since I'm participating in the writeathon, I will probably be uploading chapters almost daily for the duration of the event. Thanks for reading!
