[00:07] Daichi
    Video games are wonderful.
[00:09] Daichi
    I might be a 38-year-old man,
[00:11] Daichi
    but when I'm in a game, I'm young again.
[00:13] Daichi
    And I can do things that
     I could never do in real life.
[00:18] Daichi
    Okay, time to start by making my character.
[00:22] Daichi
    I'll name him "Earth," I guess.
[00:25] Daichi
    Since Daichi's my real name.
[00:26] Daichi
    And I'll make him look... young.
[00:29] Daichi
    He can be the same height as me...
[00:32] Daichi
    And he definitely needs
    black hair and black eyes.
[00:35] Daichi
    There. That should do it.
[00:38] Daichi
    He doesn't exactly stand out, but I'm not
    the type to be the main character myself.
[00:45] Daichi
    I'm a salaryman in the real world.
[00:47] Daichi
    I can only play two or three hours a day.
[00:50] Daichi
    So I might cause trouble for other
    players if I tried to play with them.
[00:53] Daichi
    I'll be going solo
    most of the time, I bet.
[00:56] Daichi
    Now to pick my skills. I can pick mostly
    things that were underpowered...
[01:00] Daichi
    or, let's be honest, trash, during the beta.
SIGN    Archery
SIGN    Kick
SIGN    Long-Distance
    Vision
SIGN    Wind Magic
[01:04] Daichi
    Then the hardcore crowd will leave me alone,
SIGN    Production Fingertips
SIGN    Cooking
SIGN    Woodworking
SIGN    Medicine
SIGN    Sneak
[01:08] Daichi
    and I play the game at my own pace.
SIGN    Improved
    Physical Abilities
[01:10] Daichi
    Out of my ten skills, six are underpowered.
[01:13] Daichi
    Bows are supposed to have
    really bad accuracy.
[01:16] Daichi
    And potions are available cheap from NPCs,
    so medicine's pretty worthless.
[01:23] Daichi
    Kick has no special attacks.
[01:26] Daichi
    You can't beat an enemy in
    one hit just by kicking it.
[01:29] Daichi
    Wind Magic is worse than the
    other types for attacking.
[01:33] Daichi
    It doesn't work against Fire and
    it's useless against Earth.
[01:38] Daichi
    Sneak has a high MP cost.
[01:40] Daichi
    If you move, it's easy to find you, so it's
    not good for trying to run away from monsters.
[01:44] Daichi
    Improved Physical Abilities supposedly gives a
    bonus to running, using a weapon, or crafting.
[01:49] Daichi
    But it's a small bonus,
    so if you want to be strong,
[01:53] Daichi
    you should pick something more specialized.
[01:58] Daichi
    But by picking skills that are underpowered,
SIGN    Improved Physical Abilities
    
     Long-Distance Vision
     Sneak
     Bow
     Wind Magic
     Production Fingertips
     Cooking
     Medicine
     Woodworking
     Kick
[02:01] Daichi
    other people won't want to play with me.
[02:03] Daichi
    So I can relax and play my way.
[02:06] Earth
    That's it for making my character!
[02:08] Earth
    Time for my first log-in!
SIGN    A Playthrough of a Certain DUDE's
    VRMMO LIFE
SIGN    Episode 1
SIGN    Earth Logs In
[03:43] Earth
    The concept of One More Free Life Online is,
     like the name says,
[03:46] Earth
    that you can enjoy another life here.
[03:51] Earth
    There's no big "Beat the Final Boss" quest,
[03:54] Earth
    so you're free to spend all
    your time fighting monsters,
[03:58] Earth
    or being a craftsperson who
    specializes on making items.
[04:02] Earth
    Or you can just hang out
    and talk to other players.
[04:07] Earth
    You can play the game however you want.
[04:12] Earth
    It's the first day, so the place is packed.
[04:15] Myun
    You're a new player, right?
    How about some equipment?
[04:19] Myun
    We've got the good stuff!
[04:28] Earth
    I guess there aren't any archers, huh?
[04:31] Ward
    You there, loser.
[04:34] Ward
    The one with the bow.
[04:36] Earth
    This is an unlucky way
    to start my first day...
[04:39] Earth
    You mean me?
[04:40] Ward
    Don't you know that bows are useless?
[04:43] Ward
    I guess some people are just weird!
[04:46] Ward
    And you've got the face of a loser.
[04:48] Ward
    You're such a dork!
[04:51] Ward
    Let's go!
[04:54] Bad Guy's Party
    Hah! Look at that loser lying in the road!
[04:56] Myun
    Hey, is the new player okay?
[04:57] Crowd
    I guess they didn't like the bow...
[04:58] Crowd
    Glad I picked a sword!
[05:01] Myun
    Hey, be careful, newbie!
[05:03] Earth
    I guess people really don't like archers.
[05:05] Myun
    Come back any time!
[05:06] Earth
    That's better for me, though.
[05:07] Myun
    Welcome!
SIGN    Training Hall
[05:13] Earth
    Oh, look at 'em all working hard!
[05:15] Earth
    Okay, I'll try, too!
[05:19] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:21] Earth
    I can't even shoot the thing...
[05:23] Earth
    Guess I've gotta practice!
[05:26] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:26] Earth
    Take this, and this, and this, and this!
[05:27] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:28] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:28] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:28] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:29] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:29] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:29] Sign
    Whiff...
[05:30] Earth
    It's even less accurate than I'd heard!
SIGN    Thock
[05:35] Earth
    I fired 100 shots and made it to level 5.
SIGN    Archery
[05:40] Earth
    Veni Ventus Volare.
[05:43] Earth
    Wind Needle!
SIGN    Wind Magic
[05:45] Earth
    It's more accurate than archery.
[05:48] Earth
    And my Kick skill's gone way up, too...
SIGN    Kick
[05:56] Earth
    Okay, I've got the minimum skills
    I need to survive out there.
[05:59] Earth
    Time to head out into the field!
[06:01] Crowd
    I saw one over there! Get it!
[06:03] Crowd
    Out of the way!
[06:04] Crowd
    That's my prey!
[06:06] Earth
    Looks like a mess.
[06:07] Earth
    I guess I won't be doing any combat today.
[06:09] Earth
    I'll focus on gathering herbs.
SIGN    Long-Distance Vision
[06:25] Earth
    So you don't know what it is
    after you pick it up, huh?
[06:28] Earth
    I guess I'll go back and appraise it.
[06:31] Earth
    I lost another one?
[06:34] Earth
    At first, I kept messing up and losing
    my herbs before I could identify them.
[06:39] Earth
    But I'm starting to figure it out.
[06:42] Earth
    And the reason for that is...
SIGN    Medicine
SIGN    Medicinal Herb x1
SIGN    Found In: First
    Explanation: Used for potions.
    Effect: Restores 3% HP
    Type: Medicine Item
    Rarity: Common
[06:45] Earth
    My medicine level is going up,
[06:47] Earth
    and I've been able to figure out
    which category an herb is in.
SIGN    Medicine
SIGN    Grass x2
SIGN    Found In: First
    Explanation: Just some
    ordinary grass.
    Effect: None
    Type: Medicine Item
    Rarity: Common
SIGN    Medicine
SIGN    Antidote Herb x1
SIGN    Found In: First
    Explanation: Useless on its own.
    Can be used as an antidote ingredient.
    Effect: None
    Type: Medicine Item Rarity: Common
[06:51] Earth
    The problem is that I found two of these!*
SIGN     Whoever eats this will instantly stop breathing and die.
    Do not eat under any circumstances!
[07:02] Earth
    What was I supposed to do if I didn't
    use appraise on these first?
[07:05] Earth
    What were the devs thinking,
    putting this in the first area?
[07:10] Earth
    I went to a potion store and used my starting
    cash to buy a beginner's medicine crafting set.
[07:16] Earth
    The method to make healing potions...
[07:20] Earth
    It's just what I thought.
[07:21] Earth
    You grind up the herb, soak it in
     clean water, heat it, and you're done.
SIGN    
     The most basic of all healing items.
[07:31] Earth
    In this game, once you've made
    an item, you can batch craft it.
SIGN    Crafting
SIGN    Batch Crafting
[07:35] Earth
    The items aren't as high-quality,
    but it's much easier.
[07:40] Earth
    Guess I'll make some potions
    and antidotes for tomorrow!
[07:45] Sign
    
    The weakest antidote potion.
[07:51] Sign
    Medicine
[07:51] Earth
    My medicine skill is at level 7!
[07:54] Earth
    And my Production Fingertips
    skill went up a bit, as well!
[07:58] Earth
    But you can get potions for
    really cheap from NPCs,
[08:02] Earth
    so nobody's going to want these.
[08:07] Earth
    Now it's time to go hunting!
[08:12] Earth
    It's finally emptied out!
[08:15] Earth
    I won't have to argue with other players
    about who gets to fight a monster.
[08:26] Earth
    You can't fire quickly with a bow,
    so the first shot is really important.
[08:33] Earth
    It noticed me?
[08:39] Earth
    I got it!
SIGN    You got rabbithorn meat
    and a rabbithorn pelt.
[08:55] Earth
    I'm less of an archer and
    more of a kicker, huh?
[08:58] Zwei
    Gwaaaahh!
[09:03] Zwei
    That was hilarious!
[09:07] Earth
    What?
[09:08] Zwei
    "What," he says!
[09:10] Millie
    You're laughing too much.
[09:13] Zwei
    But, Millie!
[09:15] Earth
    So, what was so funny?
[09:18] Zwei
    Sorry, sorry!
[09:20] Zwei
    I've fought rabbithorns before, but I've
    never seen one make a noise like that!
[09:26] Zwei
    It was like, "Fwraaaaaagghhh!"
[09:32] Zwei
    Humor is justice!
[09:34] Earth
    So you're a comedian or something?
[09:36] Millie
    Sorry.
[09:39] Zwei
    You seem pretty cool.
[09:42] Zwei
    I'm Zwei.
[09:43] Zwei
    This is Millie.
[09:45] Zwei
    I can send a friend request, right?
[09:47] Millie
    May I send one, too?
[09:49] Earth
    Sure, but...
[09:51] Zwei
    Awesome!
[09:53] Zwei
    I've got a partner now!
[09:54] Zwei
    Time to aim for being a top comedic duo!
[09:57] Earth
    I'm not your partner!
[09:58] Zwei
    That was perfect!
SIGN    Send Friend Request
[10:00] Zwei
    Let's party up some time!
[10:03] Millie
    See you around, okay?
[10:05] Earth
    Sure.
[10:10] Earth
    It took way too long to take
    out a single monster...
[10:14] Earth
    I need to get more experience.
[10:21] Earth
    They notice me even when I try to
    hit them from their blind spots.
[10:25] Earth
    Veni Ventus Volare!
[10:27] Earth
    Wind Needle!
[10:28] [SONG] Sign
    Wind Needle
[10:32] Earth
    Wind Needle's a wind spell, so it hits...
[10:35] Earth
    But how do I stay hidden from them?
SIGN    Sneak
[10:39] Earth
    My Sneak skill?
[10:41] Earth
    It's worth a try!
SIGN    Critical Hit
SIGN    Secret Attack "Pinpoint Hit" successful!
[10:54] Earth
    The bow never hits, and you
    can't use sneak to run away.
[10:58] Earth
    But put them together,
    and they're really strong!
[11:02] Earth
    I think I'm seeing what my next step is!
[11:11] Earth
    The hardcore crowd will be
    up all night, I'm sure.
[11:15] Earth
    But I've got work tomorrow.
[11:18] Earth
    Time to go to bed.
[11:29] Earth
    What's with this bread?
    It's pretty unimpressive.
[11:32] Earth
    The stuff you buy from NPCs
    doesn't taste that good.
[11:36] Earth
    If you can taste stuff in this game,
[11:39] Earth
    I'd like to be able to eat
    something that tastes better.
[11:47] Earth
    I've got my seasonings and cooking set...
[11:50] Earth
    Time to get to work!
[11:54] Earth
    First, I'll start by just frying
    the meat to see how it tastes,
[11:58] Earth
    then season it with salt and pepper.
[12:01] Earth
    My very first rabbit steak!
SIGN    
    A simply-prepared serving of rabbithorn meat.
[12:08] Earth
    It's tough! It's way too tough!
[12:13] Earth
    So its score is 2, huh?
[12:16] Earth
    Now I'll try making cuts in
    it and preparing it properly.
[12:21] Earth
    And I'll put some herbs in to
    get rid of the gamy taste.
SIGN    
    A serving of rabbithorn steak prepared with fragrant herbs.
    Proper preparation has made the meat much more tender.
[12:32] Earth
    It's tender and delicious!
[12:36] Earth
    It's got a score of 5, huh?
[12:38] Earth
    I'd love to get it up another point or two.
SIGN    Score: 5
[12:43] Earth
    Scoring it was definitely the right idea.
[12:46] Earth
    Now I'll try to parboil it a little before frying.
[12:55] Man
    What's that tantalizing,
    herbaceous aroma I'm smelling?
[12:58] Woman
    It's making me so hungry!
[13:00] Crowd
    Why would I smell meat in a place
    like this? It smells so good!
[13:01] Crowd
    I've never smelled anything like it!
[13:02] Crowd
    Where's it coming from?
SIGN    
    The meat of a rabbithorn, lovingly prepared by parboiling it before frying.
    The parboiling liquid was flavored with herbs, as well.
[13:08] Earth
    I finally got a score of 7!
[13:11] Earth
    I'm satisfied with this!
[13:13] Crowd
    Let me have some!
[13:15] Crowd
    You can't make something that smells
    this good and not give us any!
[13:22] Earth
    O-Okay!
[13:25] Earth
    A hundred gloh per steak!
[13:28] Earth
    How about that?
[13:29] Earth
    That's about 20 times what
    it costs to buy bread from the NPCs!
[13:32] Crowd
    I'll take it!
[13:32] Crowd
    I'll pay, just give it to me!
[13:37] Crowd
    Is it ready yet?
[13:38] Earth
    Just a little more!
[13:40] Crowd
    Where's mine?
[13:41] Earth
    Wait, I said!
SIGN    End of Line
[13:43] Earth
    And so I spent the evening in cooking hell,
    but I crafted enough to get to cooking level 20.
[13:46] Crowd
    Why is everyone lined up?
[13:48] Crowd
    To try the delicious rabbit steak!
[13:50] Crowd
    Hold this and stand here, okay?
[13:52] Sign
    Cooking Promotion
[13:53] Earth
    And I learned Cooking Promotion!
[13:55] Earth
    Here you go!
[13:57] Earth
    Thanks to that, I was able
    to cook at high speed,
[14:00] Earth
    and finally escape that hell.
[14:05] Earth
    And now I'm making a bow.
[14:08] Earth
    There's no demand for bows so
    you have to make them yourself.
[14:12] Earth
    I'm going to start by making the
    simplest bow out of just a piece of wood.
[14:18] Earth
    I'll sand it down carefully and add
    something to make it less slippery.
[14:21] Earth
    Make the grips and tie the string...
SIGN    
    Probably too weak to use against monsters.
    Atk+4 Score: 3
[14:30] Earth
    A score of three and an attack of four, huh?
[14:33] Earth
    It's better than the basic
    beginner's bow, I guess.
[14:36] Earth
    I guess I can try some other stuff.
[14:38] Earth
    I can put together three pieces of wood,
[14:40] Earth
    two made from a harder material
    and one that's more flexible...
[14:44] Earth
    Then sand down the parts that face each
    other so they fit together and bend.
SIGN    
    A bow made by combining multiple types of wood together.
    Atk +12 Score: 5
[14:53] Earth
    It's got an attack of 12!
[14:55] Earth
    That's a big improvement!
[14:58] Earth
    Okay, next...
[15:00] Earth
    I need some armor!
[15:04] Myun
    Thanks for your business!
SIGN    Improved Physical Abilities Lv. 15
    Exp 5
    Archery Lv. 11
SIGN    Kick Lv. 12
    Long-Distance Vision Lv. 8
    Wind Magic Lv. 9
SIGN    Production Fingertips Lv. 17
    Cooking Lv. 25
    Woodworking Lv. 9
[15:16] Earth
    Cooking level 25?
[15:19] Earth
    Oh, I've got to hurry!
[15:23] Earth
    I used a lot of my money
    to buy that armor...
[15:30] Earth
    I need to earn some more cash.
SIGN    
    Effect: Recover 18% HP
[15:36] Earth
    And I'll also put in my new prototype
    grape-flavored potions to try them out, too.
SIGN    Potion (Grape Flavor)
    Rabbithorn Steak
    Fried Vegetables With Meat
    Pseudo Herb Tea
[15:55] Effect
    I'll start with the wolf,
    since it's closest.
SIGN    Sneak
[16:03] Earth
    Hawk Shot!
[16:08] Earth
    It's a lot easier to
    fight with this new bow!
[16:10] Earth
    Okay, time to get to work!
[16:14] Earth
    Veni Ventus Volare!
[16:16] Earth
    Wind Needle!
[16:17] [SONG] Effect
    Wind Needle
[16:21] Earth
    Veni Gutadia Acrus Ratula!
SIGN    Wind Cutter
[16:24] Earth
    Wind Cutter!
SIGN    
    Spider silk that's so tough,
    you could use it to climb out of Hell
    if you had to.
SIGN    
    Useful for making the
     joints in crafted items.
SIGN    
    A coating that can be used
    to make items long-lasting.
SIGN    
    An item that is perfect
     for patching armor.
SIGN    
    A sturdy pelt that is ideal for making capes.
SIGN    
    A good-luck charm
    that reduces the chance of
     unnecessary encounters.
[16:29] Earth
    My kick and wind magic skills have
    gone up along with my archery.
[16:35] Earth
    All right. I've got a lot of items
    and I'm running out of arrows.
[16:39] Earth
    Time to head back.
SIGN    It's good but I could
    only buy one. Add more!
[16:43] Sign
    The juice was amazing!!
[16:45] Earth
    But my excitement only lasted for a moment.
[16:48] Earth
    Shortly after this, we were all
    brutally attacked by a new system.
[16:54] Crowd
    I apologizing for using the shout function.
     Please sell me a potion!
[16:57] Crowd
    Does anybody have the medicine skill?
[17:00] Crowd
    I'll buy them for 30 gloh
    if you have spares!
[17:02] Crowd
    Please! I need potions!
[17:04] Earth
    What's going on?
[17:06] Earth
    You can buy all the potions you
    want from the NPCs, right?
[17:10] Earth
    Zwei, this is Earth.
[17:12] Zwei
    Is that you, Earth?
[17:15] Earth
    I got back from hunting and the whole town's
    filled with people looking for potions.
[17:19] Earth
    What happened?
[17:20] Zwei
    The NPCs have started
    saying they're out of potions!
[17:26] Earth
    That's pretty bad, though, right?
[17:28] Zwei
    It is bad! For you!
[17:32] Zwei
    Those potion juices you sold
    at the vending machine...
[17:34] Zwei
    They're gonna be begging you for them!
[17:38] Crowd
    It's the chef!
[17:38] Earth
    I guess you're right!
[17:38] Crowd
    The chef who can make potions!
[17:40] Zwei
    They're there already, huh?
[17:41] Crowd
    I'll pay! Just give me some now!
[17:41] Zwei
    I'm on my way!
[17:43] Earth
    Thanks! That would be a huge help!
[17:45] Crowd
    Please!
[17:46] Crowd
    We all need your help!
[17:48] Crowd
    You can make potions, right?
[17:51] Earth
    Wait!
[17:53] Earth
    I know you need potions!
[17:54] Earth
    But there's so many people here!
[17:57] Earth
    I'm putting a limit on how many you can buy!
[17:59] Earth
    Potions are 40 gloh each,
    and you can only buy five!
[18:04] Crowd
    Okay!
SIGN    Hurry up!
[18:06] Crowd
    Dumbass!
[18:10] Zwei
    Earth.
[18:12] Earth
    Zwei! Millie!
[18:14] Zwei
    I'll deal with the crowd control.
    You just make the potions.
[18:18] Millie
    I'll handle the money, okay?
[18:22] Earth
    Thanks so much.
[18:24] Earth
    I don't have a choice.
[18:25] Earth
    Everybody thought Medicine was a
     trash skill, so barely anybody took it.
[18:29] Earth
    I don't want all the players to be
    upset because nobody has potions.

[18:39] Earth
    I'm out of medicinal herbs.
[18:41] Earth
    I'm sorry! I'm out of medicinal herbs!
[18:44] Earth
    These are the last potions
    I have for the day!
[18:47] Man
    Seriously? Oh, well.
[18:49] Man
    Make some more tomorrow, okay?
[18:50] Earth
    Sure.
[18:51] Zwei
    Sorry, everyone!
[18:53] Ward
    Hey!
[18:56] Ward
    Hey, loser archer.
[18:58] Ward
    Give me all the potions you've got.
[19:01] Ward
    We'll make good use of them for you.
[19:03] Earth
    Sorry.
[19:05] Earth
    These are for the people who stood in line.
[19:09] Ward
    You've got some nerve, don't you?
[19:11] Zwei
    Hey! Leave us alone!
[19:15] Earth
    Zwei!
[19:17] Ward
    I'll show you what happens
    if you don't do what I say.
[19:21] Earth
    I'll say the exact same thing to you.
[19:25] Earth
    You don't seem to understand the
    situation everyone's in right now.
[19:33] Ward
    Who are you guys?
[19:35] Ward
    You're going to take this loser's side?
[19:38] Earth
    You shouldn't get any ideas
    about stealing them.
[19:42] Ward
    Fine. I'll pay.
[19:45] Earth
    What do you think will happen if we can't
    buy weapons and armor from the NPCs,
[19:49] Earth
    like what just happened with the potions?
[19:53] Earth
    You're going to need craftspeople!
[19:57] Earth
    Which means you'll need to get
    along with other players!
[20:01] Earth
    And if you make an enemy
    out of everyone here,
[20:06] Earth
    you'll end up with nobody
    willing to sell you anything!
[20:10] Ward
    Don't you dare lecture me!
[20:14] Ward
    Who do you think you are, anyway?
SIGN    Ward...
    has sent
    a request...
[20:19] Zwei
    Hey, don't try to PvP him!
[20:24] Earth
    Don't worry.
[20:26] Earth
    I can't just let players like
    him boss everybody around!
SIGN    Do you accept the duel?
[20:40] Earth
    He thinks he's won already, I bet.
[20:43] Earth
    That's fine by me.
[20:44] Earth
    His arrogance gives me a chance
    to hit him in his weak spot!
[20:56] Earth
    I shift to the side to dodge, and...
[21:03] Earth
    There!
[21:05] Ward
    Archers can't do anything but steal
    other people's points from long-range!
[21:08] Ward
    But he's fighting up close?!
[21:27] Zwei
    He's amazing, Millie!
[21:28] Zwei
    Get Blue Color together, now!
[21:30] Millie
    Okay!
[21:33] Earth
    Sorry for the trouble!
[21:35] Earth
    I'll go get some more medicinal herbs and
     open my shop again tomorrow, okay?
[21:41] Daichi
    All my hard work paid off today.
[21:45] Daichi
    I bet the guy with the mohawk and his buddies
[21:49] Daichi
    will find themselves ignored
    by all the craftspeople, now.
[21:53] Daichi
    And they'll end up quitting the game, too, I bet.
[21:55] Daichi
    Poor guys.
