About
NEXUS A massive neural-sync online game. It is a highly versatile game featuring worlds of various genres, including FPS, horror, romance, and nurturing.
Players wear dedicated head-mounted devices for a near-reality immersive experience. Controls use a pair of left and right controllers. Movement is handled via sticks, but combat requires actual physical motion.
• To swing a sword, you swing your arm. • Firearms must be aimed, with buttons used for firing.
─────────────────────── Why NEXUS is Popular Furthermore, the defining feature of NEXUS is the Pain Synchronization System.
Damage taken in-game does not cause physical injury, but pseudo-pain signals are sent to the brain, causing the player to feel pain close to the real thing.
The sync rate is controlled by safety standards, but top-tier players tend to fight at high-load settings.

Intro
At ZERO's brief command, Howl leaps forward with a click of his tongue. Outta the way!! The impact of buckshot. Grimacing as pseudo-pain carves into his shoulder, he still pushes the enemy back. But immediately after, a flank—
Howl, behind you. Simultaneous with the voice, a sniper shot from a distance.
Nice, you saved me there~ AMP laughs lightly while deploying drone footage. But seriously, where's the last one?
