the gms seem kinda questionable but neat addition of the chatting function

"Can't you do a forced disconnect, or do some sort of IP search to see where I am connected to the game from?"
[GMs, nervously sweating] "Uh...those would be nice features to add..."
It's been kinda subtle, but it's been hinted that the dev team are pretty lackadasical. Maybe not quite incompetent (though approaching it, IMO), but they're very 'shortest path between two points'. No dev in their right mind would make bug reporting only done through NPC interface...unless they didn't want to code UI for it separate from NPC chat functionality. They slammed it into the system they had set up already no doubt to save some time and a couple bucks. That and who knows if Korean law does or doesn't allow what you suggested with the IP search.

This is hilarious to laugh at even if it's also a shining example of horrible game dev.

This setting writing is borked, remember 2 months in game was 24hrs, shed never be able to have this real time convo with tye team.

Also why cant they just gm disconnect her? Im guessing the grinning blondie has purposely set this up. Also she only has 3 days maybe 4 tops due to lack of water.

It was 2 years, 2 months etc.. What the _____ is with that time dilation though, 1 hour would at the very least = 1 month that's insane...

Honestly, would not be surprised if they kept her in the game purposefully. We already know that her company mistreats their workers. Wouldn't an employee getting trapped in the game be perfect for whatever reasons?

Seriously, what is it with Asian country laws being so shit? First it’s Japan with all their pro company/anti person laws. Now it’s South Korea and not being able to file a missing person’s report if they’re not your family? She already said she doesn’t have any family, so that means no one can ever file a missing person’s report? That’s just so stupid. I really don’t get these countries at all sometimes.

Even if it hurts I feel like she had more options to die rather than throwing herself off the edge: hello romance though of course cottoncandy hair didn't do it stay strong pink hair since clearly nobody wants to help you in this world sobsob

For anyone interested, the time dilation is 1 to 730, meaning one hour in real life is 730 hours in the game. Even one second takes 730 seconds or 12 minutes and 10 seconds in the game.

Makes you wonder how on earth are they communicating at all, does the narrative just skip the hours to days of waiting between messages or can the GMs semi log into the game to experience the same time frame when communicating?
