Lets Read Ready Player One Chapter Four

Notes while reading

• Finally learn what OASIS stands for!
• Oh, GSS licensed the world of other fictional universes! So that’s how they can appear!
• OASIS’ sectors are organised like a Rubix Cube.
  • Will the Egg be in the middle piece?
  • Will you havereorder the other sectors or the layout to get the Egg or clues?
    • ie like solving a regular cube.
• Microtransactions exists as fuel and teleportation costs.
• OASIS is Free To Play with microtransactions, and hopefully not Play To Win.
• Wonder what XP and levels are used for.
  • XP increases levels and abilities
• Gain XP, coins and items, like regular RPGs
• Oooh, at risk of being expelled. Harsh.
• Third decade of Great Recession, wow.

Overall

Another short chapter. More world building and explanation. Hope plot starts moving forward soon.
80s references: minimal. Makes up for Chapter 3 going OTT!
