SIGN    A Playthrough of a Certain DUDE's
    VRMMO LIFE
SIGN    Second Round Player
    Registrations Now Open
[01:32] Daichi
    They're allowing about as many new players
[01:34] Daichi
    as there are existing players, huh?
[01:36] Daichi
    I guess that means the new
    servers have been installed.

[01:39] Daichi
    I heard that the shortage of
    VR headsets got resolved, too.

[01:43] Daichi
    Which means registrations
    won't be open for long.

[01:49] Zwei
    Hey, Earth.
[01:51] Earth
    Hey.
[01:52] Zwei
    They added a new status effect
    in yesterday's patch.
[01:56] Zwei
    How are you gonna handle it?
[01:57] Earth
    Break Arms, huh?
[01:59] Earth
    If you get hit with it, you can't
    hold a weapon for a while.
[02:02] Millie
    We'll have to watch out for
    paralysis and petrification.
[02:06] Millie
    It'll trigger if you take more than 25% of
    your total HP in damage to your arms, too.
[02:11] Earth
    Well, at least other players
    can't steal your dropped weapon.
[02:17] Earth
    I played another game where somebody swiped
    a rare weapon from me after I died.
[02:21] Millie/Zwei
    Really?
SIGN    New Update Announcement
    A new dungeon is coming!!
[02:26] GM
    It's time to announce our new update!
     A new dungeon is coming!

SIGN    Its name is
    "A Challenge From the Departed"
    !!!
[02:29] GM
    Its name is "A Challenge From the Departed!"
[02:32] GM
    The dungeon is entirely randomly generated.
[02:35] GM
    Each time you enter, it will be
    a completely new experience!

[02:38] GM
    And there are all kinds of traps
    awaiting unlucky players,

[02:41] GM
    so if you can't think quick, you'll be
    joining the dead in the dungeon!

[02:46] GM
    How far can you *get before the
    one-hour time limit runs out?
[02:49] GM
    Your first goal will be the tenth floor!
[02:52] GM
    It's up to you whether you accept
    this challenge from the departed!

[02:55] GM
    Look forward to our next update!
[02:58] Zwei
    A totally randomly generated dungeon...
[03:01] Earth
    That sounds like a ton of fun!
[03:03] GM
    Now, we'll do an advance
    showing of our trailer

[03:06] GM
    for the second round of
    player registrations!

[03:15] Zwei
    That's me!
[03:21] Earth
    Don't show that!
[03:23] Millie
    Aw, you look so cool, though!
[03:26] Earth
    If new players think bows are
    a lot stronger than they are,
[03:29] Earth
    they're going to regret it later...
[03:32] Earth
    If I'm going to get ready
    for the new dungeon,

[03:35] Earth
    then I'll need a shield!
[03:38] Earth
    I don't think I can get any further in the
    game with dodging as my only defense,

[03:42] Earth
    especially in a cramped dungeon
    without room to move around.

[03:54] Earth
    I specialized my
    Shield skill in "small shields,"

[03:57] Earth
    which makes it easier to use my bow.
[03:59] Earth
    Thanks to that, I can gather
    materials at the same time.

[04:03] Earth
    Next, it's time to make
    new equipment, but...

[04:08] Blacks
    What are you making this time?
[04:10] Earth
    I'm making a new compound bow
    with these plans I brought in
[04:13] Earth
    from the real world.
SIGN    Otherworld Bow
     A bow created using methods not from our world.
    The principles behind it are unknown, but it's
    extremely powerful and stable.
    However, it requires special arrows to use.
     Effect: Atk+38 Score: 3
[04:17] Blacks
    Its attack is that high
    even with a score of 3?
[04:21] Blacks
    Any archer would love this!
[04:23] Earth
    I can't recommend it to them,
    given how much the arrows cost.
[04:27] Earth
    And I just made it to learn more
    about how these things work.
[04:30] Earth
    I'm not going to use it.
[04:32] Blacks
    You mean you're trying to
    make something even better?
[04:35] Earth
    Yeah, but it doesn't exist in the real world,
[04:39] Earth
    so I'll have to draw up the plans myself.
[04:46] Earth
    It's finally done! That took forever!
SIGN    Secret Light Metal Shield
     A small shield made from light metal. Usable as a shield, but also has a secret functionality.
     Effect: Def+25
     Special Effects: Transformation Ability, Right Arm Only
     Score: 6
[04:53] Earth
    I used material from the
    rock ants' exoskeletons

[04:57] Earth
    on the sides of the shield to strengthen it,
[04:59] Earth
    but mostly to protect the compound bow
    parts that I've placed inside the back.

SIGN    Secret Another Bow
     The shield with its secret mechanism deployed.
    For a hunting bow, it's small, but it's extremely lethal and accurate.
     However, it requires special arrows to use.
     Effect: Atk+60 Def+5
     Special Effects: Transformation Ability, Right Arm Only, Accuracy Bonus (Weak)
     Score: 6
[05:07] Earth
    Maybe the Accuracy Bonus (Weak) came from
    the little scope sight I put on it?

[05:13] Earth
    If I let go of the grip, it goes
    back to being a normal shield.

[05:19] Earth
    The reason I raised my Shield
    skill on my right hand,

[05:22] Earth
    and made that compound bow for practice,
[05:24] Earth
    and went through all that trouble trying
    to figure out how to draw plans,

[05:28] Earth
    was all for this.
[05:30] Earth
    It works in a semi-weird way,
    and the handle's upside-down,

[05:33] Earth
    but it's a weapon intended
    just for me, so that's fine!

[05:39] Earth
    Okay, now even if I get hit with Break Arms,
[05:43] Earth
    I won't immediately lose my
    ability to attack at long range!
[05:47] Earth
    It took five whole days to finish it,
    but it's good to be ready.

SIGN    Earth Gets Excited Over a New Dungeon
[06:07] Earth
    Look at all the players!
[06:09] Earth
    I guess that's what happens the
    first day after a big update.
[06:12] Earth
    Now, time to check out that new dungeon!
[06:16] Seller
    We're having a big sale!
[06:18] Seller
    Don't go in there without potions!
[06:19] Seller
    Who wants potions?
[06:21] Seller
    Cheap, powerful potions!
[06:23] Seller 2
    Buy now or cry later!
[06:25] Seller 2
    Who wants to try my new potions?
[06:26] Earth
    The merchant players are all fired up, too.
[06:29] Earth
    This is where they make their money.
[06:31] Red
    You there!
[06:32] Red
    Listen to me!
[06:39] Earth
    Um... what is it?
[06:42] Red
    I am Red!
SIGN    Red
[06:46] Blue
    I'm Blue!
SIGN    Blue
[06:49] Yellow
    Mah name is Yellow!
SIGN    Yellow
[06:52] Pink
    I'm Pink!
SIGN    Pink
[06:56] Green
    And I am none other than Green!
SIGN    Green
[07:00] All
    Together, we are...
[07:02] Earth
    Stop, stop! You can't say another word!
[07:06] Red
    But we're just getting to the good part!
[07:08] Earth
    Absolutely not!
SIGN    Gang of Six Rangers
    One More Rangers
SIGN    Gang of Six Rangers
    One More Rangers
[07:19] Earth
    I see!
[07:21] Earth
    A party that's modeling themselves
    after Sentai rangers?
[07:24] Earth
    Where's Black, then?
[07:26] Red
    He said he had a stomachache today.
[07:29] Pink
    Well, don't worry about that, okay?
[07:32] Earth
    You guys don't really sound like rangers...
[07:34] Earth
    But I guess I'm supposed
    to ignore that, right?

[07:37] Red
    Anyway, that means we
    don't have enough people.
[07:40] Red
    We were looking for another
    member when we found you!
[07:44] Red
    And so, of course, we had to approach you!
[07:46] Earth
    I don't think I can get too
    far in there on my own,

[07:49] Earth
    so maybe I'll go along with them.
[07:51] Earth
    You're inviting me to a
    pick-up group, right?
[07:56] Blue
    You're not wrong.
[07:59] Earth
    You're really into the role-play thing, huh?
[08:01] Red
    Then it's settled!
[08:02] Red
    We assault the enemy hideout, everyone!
[08:05] All
    Right!
[08:06] Earth
    It's not a hideout, though! It's a dungeon!
[08:09] Earth
    Well, whatever.
[08:18] Red
    All right! Let's go—
[08:20] Earth
    Wait!
SIGN    Threat Detection
[08:26] Earth
    Looks like we hit a nasty map.
[08:29] Earth
    There are fifteen traps in this room.
[08:33] Earth
    And four of them are instant death traps.
[08:36] Earth
    It's pretty typical for
    heroes to fall for traps,
[08:38] Earth
    but I don't want us getting wiped out.
[08:42] Blue
    True, that would be a problem.
[08:45] Earth
    I'll take the lead.
[08:46] Earth
    Follow my path exactly.
[08:48] All
    Right.
[08:56] Blue
    Red made the right call.
[08:58] Blue
    I was concerned when he wanted to
    add another member, but...
[09:03] Earth
    I bet.
[09:05] Earth
    You never know what'll happen when
     you add a new member for one session.

[09:07] Earth
    I'm surprised they decided to do it at all.
[09:09] Red
    No, we were lucky to meet the guy
    who married the Fairy Queen.
[09:14] Red
    There's no way he could be weak.
[09:16] Earth
    Um, are you talking about me?
[09:19] Red
    Who else could I be talking about?
[09:21] Earth
    I want to cry...
[09:28] Earth
    We're finally through.
[09:30] Red
    We'll take the lead from now on.
[09:32] Earth
    Sure.
[09:33] Red
    Come on! Swiftly!
[09:36] Red
    Swiftly!
[09:36] Yellow
    Swiftly!
[09:46] Red
    The enemy is here!
[09:48] Red
    We five warriors shall defeat our foes!
[09:51] All
    Right!
[09:53] Blue
    Too easy.
[09:55] Yellow
    Piece of cake!
[09:58] Green
    Behold my techniques!
[10:04] Red
    The power of justice prevails!
[10:06] Earth
    Oh, I guess you call yourself
    heroes for a reason!
[10:09] Earth
    I guess I can focus on finding traps, then!
[10:16] Red
    The stairs to the second floor!
[10:18] Red
    How long did it take us to get here?
[10:20] Blue
    Eighteen minutes.
[10:21] Blue
    We're taking too much time for
    a one-hour dungeon.
[10:26] Earth
    Sorry. I wish I could
    disarm the traps faster,
[10:30] Earth
    but it's dangerous to rush this stuff.
[10:32] Green
    None of us are so foolish as to
    complain about such a thing!
[10:35] Green
    Be at ease!
[10:36] Pink
    We're just glad to have you.
[10:38] Yellow
    I think we've just got
    to be careful as we go.
[10:43] Red
    Okay, let's go down a floor!
[10:47] Red
    It took us eighteen minutes to find the staircase
    from the first floor to the second, but...
[10:52] Pink
    We'll make it to the
    third floor really fast.
[10:55] Earth
    Sometimes a randomly generated dungeon
    is on your side, and sometimes it's not.
[10:59] Red
    Let's hurry on ahead!
[11:02] Red
    Swiftly!
[11:04] Red
    Hwaah!
[11:08] Red
    Wights and skeleton soldiers!
[11:10] Pink
    Leave it to me!
[11:12] Pink
    All right... Here I go!
[11:14] Pink
    Glorious Lovely Flash!
[11:26] Red
    Did we get them?
[11:30] Pink
    Oh, my!
[11:31] Pink
    The skeleton soldiers can
    dispel the spell, huh?
[11:34] Green
    They're different from the skeletons
    we saw on the first floor!
[11:38] Blue
    More wights!
[11:39] Red
    Don't worry!
[11:43] Red
    We'll destroy them!
[11:49] Yellow
    My attacks aren't working!
[11:57] Earth
    Wights can't take physical damage!
[11:59] Earth
    Leave this to me and Pink,
    and Blue's water magic!
[12:02] Red
    Thanks!
[12:04] Earth
    This Aeolian Dust Arrow
    has wind magic on it,

[12:07] Earth
    so it'll work on the wights!
[12:16] Red
    So we've finally found the way
    down to the fourth floor?
[12:20] Blue
    We lost a lot of time dealing
    with those tricky monsters.
[12:23] Earth
    It's been forty minutes already.
[12:26] Earth
    There's no way we'll make it
    to the tenth floor in time.
[12:29] Earth
    Why don't we aim for the
    fifth floor instead?
[12:32] Red
    No objection here!
[12:37] Earth
    What is this feeling, like the
    grim reaper's caressing my face?

[12:41] Earth
    Something's not right about this floor.
[12:43] Red
    Right!
[12:44] Voice
    Somebody help me!
[12:50] Earth
    Another party?
[12:51] Earth
    What happened?
[12:52] Red
    I'm coming!
[12:54] Earth
    Wait!
[13:04] Earth
    That trap locked us in here!
[13:06] Earth
    It's the type that won't let us leave
    until we complete this room's quest!

[13:15] Blue
    Look at them all.
[13:17] Red
    There's no time to think about this.
[13:19] Red
    Let's go, everyone!
[13:20] Green
    Understood!
[13:22] Yellow
    Time to kick butt!
[13:24] Earth
    Are there traps...?
[13:28] Earth
    No!
[13:29] Earth
    I can fight with my full strength!
[13:32] Earth
    Gatling Arrow!
[13:34] Earth
    Aeolian Dust Arrow!
[13:45] Adventurer 1
    Thanks, you saved us.
[13:48] Adventurer 2
    Let's join the fight, too!
[13:50] Red
    Okay! Finish them!
[13:53] Rangers
    Storm...
[13:56] Rangers
    Hurricane!
[14:02] Earth
    That's one heck of a flashy attack...
[14:04] Earth
    It does look strong, though!
[14:13] Adventurer 1
    You're the leader, huh?
[14:14] Adventurer 1
    Thanks for saving us from being wiped out!
[14:17] Red
    I just did what anyone would do!
[14:21] Blue
    Look, a huge treasure chest.
[14:24] Adventurer 2
    I can't wait to see what's inside!
SIGN    Threat Detection
[14:30] Earth
    No! Don't touch that chest!
[14:33] Adventurer 2
    What, you think we owe you
    this because you saved us?
[14:37] Earth
    No, it's a trap!
[14:40] Adventurer 2
    Don't underestimate me.
[14:42] Adventurer 2
    I've got the Thief skill, too.
[14:45] Adventurer 2
    I can tell if there's a trap.
[14:47] Earth
    Fine.
[14:48] Earth
    We won't touch the chest.
[14:52] Red
    Earth!
[14:53] Earth
    If you insist on opening it,
    wait until we're all out of the room!
[14:58] Green
    But then we won't get any reward...
[15:03] Blue
    We should do what Earth says.
[15:05] Blue
    Red.
[15:07] Red
    Right.
[15:08] Earth
    Let's leave immediately.
[15:11] Red
    Earth, if you abandoned
    that treasure chest,
[15:14] Red
    there must be something
    really bad inside, right?
[15:16] Earth
    Yeah.
[15:17] Earth
    This room had a double trap.
[15:21] Earth
    The first trapped you inside
    with a bunch of monsters.
[15:24] Earth
    And the other...
[15:30] Earth
    Kills you with your own greed.
[15:34] Red
    We're out of time.
[15:37] Red
    Earth, I don't want to offend you,
[15:40] Red
    but can I ask you a question?
[15:43] Red
    That adventurer said he had the Thief skill,
SIGN    Threat Detection
[15:46] Red
    but he didn't see the trap.
[15:49] Red
    I know it's considered impolite
    to ask about others' skills,
[15:52] Red
    but is your level above 20?
[15:55] Earth
    I can't give you the exact number,
    but I'll admit it's over 20.
[16:00] Earth
    It's actually above 30.
[16:02] Earth
    If it was 20, I wouldn't have
    been able to see that last trap.

[16:05] Earth
    But I shouldn't tell that
    to somebody I've just met.

[16:09] Red
    Let's split up our winnings
    and call it a day.
[16:11] Red
    We didn't get much, though.
[16:13] Earth
    My Thief skill went way up,
    so I'm pretty happy.
[16:18] Red
    If you're satisfied, then so are we!
[16:21] Green
    I'm not!
[16:23] Green
    I wanted to explore the second floor more!
[16:25] Green
    There might've been good items!
[16:27] Yellow
    But there's that time limit!
[16:30] Green
    Clearing an entire floor before moving on
    to the next is one way to enjoy a dungeon!
[16:34] Green
    I enjoy mapping!
[16:36] Earth
    I get that!
[16:37] Earth
    You feel so satisfied
    when you complete a map!
[16:40] Green
    Behold! This is my complete
    map of the first floor!
[16:43] Blue
    I can never figure out what
    your maps are trying to say.
[16:47] Blue
    Is this map really right?
[16:48] Pink
    Green has a terrible
    sense of direction, too.
[16:51] Yellow
    These floors are randomly generated anyway,
    so that map'll be useless next time we come.
[16:58] Earth
    Good point.
[17:00] Red
    Earth, thank you so much for coming today!
[17:02] Red
    We'd love to introduce you to Black!
[17:04] Red
    Let me send a friend request!
[17:08] Earth
    Sure.
[17:09] Earth
    I was lucky I got to do a run with you guys!
[17:14] Earth
    If I want to get to the
    tenth floor within an hour,
[17:17] Earth
    I need to be able to disarm traps faster.
[17:20] Earth
    That's why I decided to build a tool
    that would help my Thief skill...
[17:26] Earth
    But if you make it too thin, it snaps.
[17:28] Earth
    And if you try to make it so it
    doesn't snap, it gets too thick!
[17:31] Blacks
    Making another weird item?
[17:35] Earth
    I'm trying to come up with a way to deal
    with the traps in the new dungeon.
[17:37] Earth
    I could do it faster with a picking tool,
[17:41] Earth
    but it's hard to get one that's
    thin but doesn't break.
[17:44] Blacks
    Let me see that for a second.
[17:51] Blacks
    Well? How's this?
[17:55] Earth
    Wow!
[17:57] Earth
    I can tell you're a pro!
[17:58] Earth
    It's even better than I could've hoped for!
[18:01] Blacks
    This one's on the house.
[18:03] Earth
    Thanks! I learned a lot!
[18:07] Blacks
    Sure thing! Keep it up!
[18:10] Earth
    Things will go much smoother with this.
[18:13] Earth
    Now I just need some more arrows...
[18:15] Fairy Queen
    Hey, how've you been?!
[18:18] Earth
    You always show up out
    of nowhere, don't you?
[18:20] Earth
    You scared me!
[18:21] Fairy Queen
    Does that mean I should make a big
    announcement before I arrive?
[18:25] Fairy Queen
    Maybe add in some music?
[18:26] Earth
    Are you trying to be a pro wrestler?
[18:28] Earth
    Well, whatever.
[18:30] Earth
    So, you're in your full regalia today.
    Did something happen?
[18:33] Fairy Queen
    I'm going to give out contract
    crystals to the new adventurers,
[18:37] Fairy Queen
    so they can make contracts with fairies.
[18:39] Earth
    Oh, right. A lot of new players just joined.
[18:43] Fairy Queen
    I want to hand over as many as I can today.
[18:46] Fairy Queen
    It's pretty tough to write all those emails.
[18:49] Fairy Queen
    I do have human helpers, but still.
[18:52] Earth
    Does she mean the game's GMs?
[18:57] Earth
    Still, going out of her way to deliver the
    crystals in person is pretty old-fashioned.

[19:02] Fairy Queen
    So, anyway, I'm off!
[19:04] Fairy Queen
    Let's talk again later, my husband!
[19:09] Earth
    You and I are not married!
[19:11] Fairy Queen
    Aw, and I spent so much time on my hair.
[19:14] Earth
    She's a woman in that sense, I guess.
[19:16] Earth
    Maybe I hit her too hard.
[19:19] Fairy Queen
    I guess it's time to go.
[19:21] Fairy Queen
    Farewell!
[19:25] Earth
    I guess she's working hard
    at her job, at least.
[19:29] Earth
    I should work hard, too.
[19:42] Earth
    This should be enough for
    another dungeon run.
[19:45] Earth
    Now to do some cooking...
[19:49] Fairy Queen
    I'm back...
[19:52] Earth
    You don't look so good...
[19:54] Fairy Queen
    Handing over the crystals went fine.
[19:57] Fairy Queen
    But after that...
[19:59] Fairy Queen
    Who cares about my measurements?
[20:02] Fairy Queen
    Why do you want to know
    what kind of guy I like?
[20:05] Fairy Queen
    What's the point of asking
    me my favorite food?
[20:06] Fairy Queen
    And there were these weird questions
    about how I felt about having affairs,
[20:09] Fairy Queen
    and I'm obviously not telling any of you
    where you can come meet me!
[20:15] Earth
    I-I see. Sounds rough.
[20:18] Fairy Queen
    I felt like I had no choice
    but to summon everyone
[20:22] Fairy Queen
    who asked those questions
    to the battlefield,
[20:24] Fairy Queen
    then defeat them and revive them ten times,
    giving them a death penalty each time.
[20:28] Earth
    Wait... What were you thinking?
[20:31] Fairy Queen
    But... But when I did...
[20:33] Fairy Queen
    They said, "For us, this is a reward!"
[20:35] Fairy Queen
    And then they all got these creepy smiles!
[20:38] Fairy Queen
    Humans are scary.
[20:41] Fairy Queen
    I'm so tired.
[20:43] Earth
    I do feel a little bad for her...
[20:46] Fairy Queen
    And so...
[20:48] Fairy Queen
    Please, let me rest my head on your lap!
[20:49] Fairy Queen
    Give me head pats!
[20:51] Fairy Queen
    And sign this marriage form, too!
[20:53] Earth
    Wh-Where did you learn about that?
[20:56] Fairy Queen
    I got it from the town hall!
[20:58] Fairy Queen
    I've already signed it!
[21:00] Earth
    Which town hall?
[21:01] Fairy Queen
    Once you sign it,
    we'll be officially married!
[21:05] Earth
    Why would we get married?
[21:06] Earth
    Sheesh, how do you learn about this stuff?
[21:09] Fairy Queen
    Don't be so stubborn!
[21:11] Fairy Queen
    The husband comes home tired from work!
[21:14] Fairy Queen
    It's the wife's job to cheer the husband up!
[21:15] Earth
    Who's the wife and who's the
    husband in this scenario?!
[21:21] Fairy Queen
    It's so good!
[21:23] Earth
    Sheesh...
[21:24] Fairy Queen
    What's this called?
[21:25] Fairy Queen
    I've never seen it before!
[21:27] Earth
    It's a meat bun.
[21:29] Earth
    My Cooking skill finally hit level 50,
[21:31] Earth
    and I can use a steamer now,
[21:33] Earth
    so I tried making it.
[21:35] Fairy Queen
    So I'm your first customer, huh?
[21:38] Fairy Queen
    I'm so happy!
[21:41] Earth
    Well, I guess I can give her what
    she wants a little, just for today.

[21:46] Earth
    It must be rough being a queen.
[21:48] Earth
    She can't go on adventures
    whenever she wants like I can,

[21:51] Earth
    and I'm the only adventurer
    she gets to talk to, so...

[21:55] Fairy Queen
    Thank you, husband!
[21:59] Earth
    Stop saying that!
[22:00] Fairy Queen
    Look at you blush!
[22:03] Earth
    Maybe I shouldn't have given
    her what she wanted... sob.
