[QUOTE=Carnage2323;36772233]Also [sp] That was kind of forced drama with him not accepting the health pot [/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]Despite what the visuals show, SAO doesn't operate on an Earthbound style HP system. Once you hit 0 you're done. Blue hair didn't want him to waste the pot because it wouldn't have done anything.[/sp]

[sp]Why would it have not done anything, he was losing HP over time and health pots in SAO heal over time. He would be fine[/sp]
[QUOTE=Carnage2323;36773515][sp]Why didn't he just say "I was trying to tell him to stop because it wasn't the weapon he described, and probably had a different attack pattern than what he was expecting"?[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]Because that would've been boring as fuck and would've gone the annoying as fuck "excluded from group" route. Unless they settled it with a duel or some shit, which obviously wouldn't happen. Also as you said, they're emotionally distraught, I doubt they'd listen[/sp]

[sp]His decision could have been made partly because he's generally a loner anyway? Not sure what he's like yet, but I can imagine someone who would sabotage themself by ruining their reputation like that, to force themselves into staying a solo player, by forcing everybody else away. Just a thought. Don't think he's really that angsty though.[/sp]

[sp]He technically already hit 0. Just that the transition to animation meant that they had to show it dropping somehow. Dead is dead, no matter what.[/sp]

wrong quoted post bro
Hmm aparently in the LN they did the scene completely different
[sp]>His face and name were completely different from what I remembered, but we have previously met face to face in the other Aincrad, and maybe I even talked to him. As expected, Diabel was an original beta tester like me. And like me, he fought hard to hide his identity until today. No, as I had made close friends while in hiding, my worry was probably several times his.
>Although I do not remember him, he remembered I was called Kirito, and although the appearance of me during beta testing is not the same, he remembered that the name of the player who was good at placing the LA on the boss during the beta testing period, so he tried to confirm my identity earlier on. Subsequently, he believed that I would probably try to do the same thing here. The Floor Boss drops high performance items including «Unique» one-of-a-kind items, and in a death game like SAO, combat ability and viability was the equivalent. In order to survive in this world, Diabel ――instead of being a solo player, chose to be a Knight leading a crowd―― tried to get the rare drops from Illfang by all means.
>At the moment I thought that, I considered Diabel on the floor. His eyes, as blue as his hair, twitched, but he immediately emitted a pure light. From his trembling lips, in a voice soft enough for only me to hear, he said.
>"......Please, Kirito-san. The boss, defea―"
>Before his sentence ended――
>The commander of the Aincrad Boss Raid Forces, the Knight Diabel, turned into blue shards of glass which shattered and scattered. [/sp]
Would of preferred that but oh well.
[sp] also the transition from episode 2 to 3 is going to be a one year time skip[/sp]

would you really want to see him grinding for an entire episode? it's an asian mmo pretty sure there's a lot of grinding involved.
SAO episode 2. Just wow.
[QUOTE=Teto;36773845]WWWWHAT[/QUOTE]
They have 100 floors to beat and it took 2 months to beat just 8, it probably gets harder to beat a floor each time too.

I suppose so, but still quite a lot of time to pass without anything happening. How long is this series set to be again?

Incoming spoilers don't click if you don't wanna get spoiled
[sp] They never make it to floor 100, instead they make it to floor 75 by the time two years pass and face the creator(might be wrong on that.)
There is 10 volumes to the SAO light novel, and only the first volume takes place in SAO, all the other ones dont.[/sp]
I still find it cool that Space Bros use legit names instead of names that resemble the legit name.

a fact that doesn't make any sense.

Yeah I don't understand it myself
SAO EP2:
[sp]I like the guide book part. So true, there are lots of players who never ready anything, but just go straight to questing, then ask questions later.[/sp]
That ending.
So badass.
[sp]Cunts calling him cheater and flaming beta testers. Still, he should've said that Diabel was a beta tester too...
Sure, it could've probably been resolved in a much better way, but damn. It reminds me of those kids in games that cannot be dealt with no matter what. They'll just keep on hating you.[/sp]
[sp] They are also skipping from floor 2 to floor 46[/sp]
The NO MAGIC ALLOWED thing seems pretty random though
Maybe it's explained better in the LN

Its a game called SWORD art online.
Why would it have magic.
Plus having magic would kind of ruin the severity of the situation if you could just sit back and lob fireballs at stuff. I'm guessing the creator wanted them always be in a lethal close up encounter
swords are for unimaginative faggots anyway
lances motherfucker

For a series called Sword Art Online there's apparently very little Sword Art Online!!
Pfft..
I'd make a bow firing SWORDS.
Ha!
