"Sun Yue, it's been a long time. I heard what you just said, and I happen to want to get back into the groove too. Want to have a match?"
Although Seiya had not logged into Shangri-La Frontier during this time, he had been diving into UW.
Though both were fully immersive virtual MMO games, their game engines were somewhat different.
Developed by RATH, UW placed greater emphasis on developing game characters. After all, it was a game focused on cultivating Artificial Souls. While it gave players an immersive feeling, that sensation came more from the environment.
If Seiya's memories of the Real World had not been sealed when he first dived into the world of UW, he would probably have felt that his body was stiffer than it was in reality.
Shangri-La Frontier, on the other hand, had a game engine that focused more heavily on the finer details of movement and control.
Gravity, attraction, repulsion, and so on were all reproduced in this game with near-perfect fidelity.
To be honest, when it came to the physics engine alone, Seiya believed that Utopia Company, the developer of Shangri-La Frontier, was even stronger than RATH, a company that was practically on par with international standards!
Despite also being a fully immersive virtual game, Shangri-La Frontier gave Seiya a far more natural command over his body.
With so many unwelcome guests at the dojo at home, he could not practice swordsmanship in peace. Swinging a blade around in Shangri-La Frontier now seemed like a pretty good alternative.
"You said it. This is the perfect chance to try out the Scorpion Cage Gauntlets Birak made for me using materials from those Crystal Scorpions."
Sun Yue had no reason to refuse Seiya's invitation to spar. If anything, it was exactly what he wanted.
