World Seed

There were even those that chose to sacrifice their physical bodies, becoming digital existences that lived within internet communities.

The first consoles, known as Seeds, mass distributed among the people, with such realism that they no longer qualified as a Virtual Reality, but as an Artificial Reality. But what happens when things become too real?
