《Amphigory》What Have We Become
Advertisement
We're all trying to win the same race
Never slowing down
All keeping the same pace
Attempting not to drown
As we paddle each stroke
As we run each stretch
Ignoring the fact that we're broke
Searching for something too far fetched
Taking what isn't ours with greed
Wishing for sunshine during the cold of night
Turning a blind eye to those in need
Afraid to climb just because of the height
What have we become?
Needing to keep a streak
Bargaining for likes on a post
Life is way more bleak
Than what we claim and boast
Yearning for a ding
A notification of some kind
Something to keep us comparing
Taking over and consuming our mind
More, more, more
We can never get enough
What do we need all of this stuff for
Judging wanting to "live it up"
What have we become?

The Realm Reborn: Small Closed Demo (LitRPG)
One of the world’s top competitive gamers, Theo Robinson, has been invited to demo The Realm Online, Radical Interactive’s second attempt to delve into the VRMMORPG industry. Their first attempt had critics cringing at blocky graphics and less than realistic NPC interactions. Now, after over twenty years of marrying virtual reality and medical technology, Radical Interactive is ready to try again, and they have something really big in store.But Theo Robinson has no interest in The Realm Online. A MOBA player, RPGs have never been his thing. The only reason he accepted the invitation was because of another secret project that Radical Interactive has been working on. Word has it they have been trapping people with brain injuries inside of The Realm Online. When Nancy Shelton, YouTube's most famous female Let's Player (and Theo's best friend online), got into a car accident and ended up in a coma, it was suspected that her consciousness had been ported into the game. Theo's quest isn't to demo The Realm Online but to try to find his friend. But will he even be able to look for her when the immersion is so intense that he forgets who he is?
