Wow, well did I just come to find one of the most intricate
and extraordinary places in Second Life on my journey through the virtual realm
today. I wanted to go from my futuristic cityscape that I so enjoyed last visit
to something a little more sci-fi and completely out there. What better way to
find that than outer space? I did a search for Mars, Aliens and Robots and one
place came up that seemed to be pretty popular – Necronom VI. It was rated
Mature, but that didn’t scare me off, maybe I’d have an interesting story or
two to bring back to the blog.
Looks Like I Took the Red Pill |
The moment I teleported there I was impressed with the
design and they layout of the introductory space. There was a rain of green
text, so very The Matrix like and as I explored the intro area I bumped into two
people. Both of them told me that it was their first times there, and one even
explored with me for a little while. I complimented the other on his outfit,
which looked like a martial arts instructor from the year 3000, and he said
that it was a free outfit from this market and was nice enough to even give me
a landmark tool that I could use to teleport to it in case I wanted to pick it
up as well. I said that I wanted to find something edgier and he replied that
I’d definitely find something more edgy than the intro clothes that I had on.
After I was finished talking to these few people in the
introductory area, I decided to find my way outside and explore the exterior of
the building before I went into the multilevel structure that I could tell
would hold many secrets. I was disappointed the first time that I left the
building since there was nothing that I could see. But after I went back
inside, I decided that I should fly around the top since my travels so far in
second life have proven that only the true explores go far in this world and
I’m so glad I did.
Apparent Space Sphere and Spaceship |
Once I flew up I was greeted with a space ship that I
unfortunately could find no way to enter. However, right next to it was a
sphere depicting outer space that really solidified how well designed this
place is.
The beauty of designing and being a player in a futuristic and sci-fi
themed place is that there is nothing else to compare it to, so whatever you’re
experiencing you’re also taking in with an open mind and not comparing it to
the real New York or the real London. Once I entered this
sphere, it looked like I was thrown into the true middle of the universe. There
were stars moving all around me and I couldn’t see the boundary. It was like I
was transported to a completely different world and I was incredibly impressed
with this entire realm. All of this made me even more eager to explore the
inside – a journey I could never have imagined.
Boundless Space |
