Xanadu Adventure and Role Playing Scene

Xanadu Adventure and Role Playing Scene

To all who are into Role Playing Games (RPG) or Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPG) but rather than doing all the fighting  for quests and survival are more into simply experiencing the scene, capturing the moments, making videos,  or their very own movies, and meeting people with the same interest as you are, while making the scene even more real by exchanging ideas and stories. This scene fits you right. Xanadu gives you that sense of either being that damsel in distress waiting for your knight in shining Armour to come and rescue you, or you could be that mighty knight in shining Armour, king or prince, whatever you’d like to become that suits you — be it! Only there’s a limitation, because this scene is classified for adult players due to some scenes, and level of violence that not be suitable to minors. As expected this scene is within the 3D virtual World of IMVU.

The Wedding

Friday, November 21st, 2008

The long awaited day of our virtual lives has come. It’s our virtual wedding day, and we’re both ready to finally tie the knot and become an official couple here in IMVU land. In real life, we are engaged and planning to get married next year. But since it’s possible to get wed here, we have decided to get married now. I am excited, and Red Butterfly can’t hide her excitement too.

After visiting her last midnight, I went home and then went to bed, but I got up really early too. the feeling is like having butterflies in my tummy, and I just can’t wait. I was wondering how Red Butterfly, my bride, would look like in her wedding gown. Many things were running in my head, and I just can’t help but smile. (more…)

IMVU Fine Dining and Restaurant

Sunday, November 16th, 2008

After a long day of surfing at the online universities, we spent a very special dinner at IMVU Fine Dining and Restaurant. Red Butterfly shopped for something nice to wear, and I got myself something as well. I guess it’s about time we added something new to our wardrobes anyway. IMVU Fine Dining and Restaurant is one of the elite places to go and dine at. Although they have this dress code, and of course we have to follow it. And so we drove off to the place which isn’t really hard to find, only it takes a little time to load because they only cater ten people inside and that includes the staff of this huge place. Well just like any other place in IMVU, no matter how big the room is, only ten people are allowed in. This is to avoid the scenes going slow mo.  But slow motion or not, as long as I have Red Butterfly with me, I’m perfectly fine.
The beautiful songs played by the pianist even made the night more romantic than ever. After we had our dinner, we ordered red wine and had a toast to us, and for this new beginning. Then, I asked Red Butterfly to dance with me. I held her hand and took her to the dance floor and we danced as sweet slow love songs are being played.
It’s not just the place, the food, the ambiance, and definitely not the wine. It’s just me and Red Butterfly and our love, making the night even more special and warm. How I wished the night would not end, but Red Butterfly and I had to set off for home and rest the night away. Tomorrow is another day.

The New Beginning

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

Just like getting an online university degree, I wanted to start this new virtual life right, I don’t want this to be like how it’s like with other people who have just found something new to play for pleasure, or to explore and meet new friends virtually. Well, I have nothing against that, in fact I am open to meeting and making new friends, but not someone special.
I have Red Butterfly and she’s all that I’d ever want to spend and share everything with. I don’t want this to be just another virtual or online game that we play. We are already engaged in real life and I want to make it the same virtually. And so I proposed to Red Butterfly by giving her a ring and asking her to marry me. I wanted to take her to a place that is romantic and beautiful, but I dunno, no matter where I looked I couldn’t seem to find the perfect place. Everything always looked so common and plain, or maybe they’re just always out stood by my baby’s beauty. Her smile alone lights up every place that we went to… (more…)

The Mountain Drive

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

I was trying to browse some nice rooms when I accidentally clicked on the chat now button and unexpectedly met a filipina girl who is also into online games and taking online college courses. It turned out that she just signed up and created her own RPG 3D Avatar. I invited Red Butterfly over to the room to meet her. We were in her basic penthouse and she asked if we had other rooms and I said yeah. I asked Red Butterfly to switch rooms and then we took her for a short mountain drive as we were heading to the other side of the island to Red Butterfly’s beach house. (more…)

Rooms and Bubbles

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Virtual Citizens communicate through Text Bubbles. This is true in most RPG, MMORPG, or any other games where players have the ability to talk and interact with one another. although most games uses chat boxes, I still prefer the bubbles. It can be a little annoying at time, most especially when you’re taking screen shots, good thing there’s a way to remove it. Anyway many are confused on how it works, basically, you  just invisibly type something you want to say and then it appears in bubble on top of your character. there’s an option to switch it a usual chat window through by pressing Ctrl and B simultaneously.

The Virtual World and Environment

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008
Before I go to the topic about my avatar, I would like to talk about the Virtual World and environment in which my Avatar will become a virtual citizen of. If there are different types of Online Degree Programs, There are also a lot of virtual games and environment that you could choose from, either from single player and multi player games, realms, or chat softwares that includes a virtual environment and simulation games, otherwise known as RPG interface. There’s The SIMS with a lot of extensions and you can install in your machine and run with or without the net connection, there are also online multiplayer games with simulation environments and interactive 3D chat software fully loaded with so many features that you can install and run just like There, Kaneva, Secondlife, and IMVU. And in my case I have tried most of them but have settled with IMVU, a continously growing online network and Virtual world. The Avatars in IMVU are 3D and more detailed than the other counterparts most especially when it comes to skins, eyes, and even  the rooms and clothes, etc. I have had my other Avatar for about a year now, but for the sake of this blog and for a new beginning, I have signed up for a new account and created a new Avatar named awakekoholic.

The First Journey Towards Virtual Reality

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008
If getting a degree online has an enrollment process, the first step in becoming a part of the Virtual World is to create your own virtual entity. It could be a reflection of yourself in real life, a character that you desire to become, or a role that you’d like to portray in any online games, may it be RPG, MMORPG or what have you. A virtual entity otherwise known as Avatar. An avatar is the 3D pseudo physical representation of yourself and your existence in the world of virtual reality. Some create themselves into monsters, some into bots, some into elves, vampires, heroes, etc. But I chose to remain in the realm of humans. A real life avatar as what they call it. Human in form from head to toe, only an animated representation of yourself. Well, we can’t deny that not all human avatars are real life avatars, or a reflection of the owner in the real world. You are given the option to make your avatar good looking, sexy, perfectly proportioned from head to toe, or to look like any celebrity that you dream to be. Most virtual citizens choose to be those perfect characters, most especially those who dream to become famous, and some to fulfill their frustrations in real life. But still, it’s different when you make or customize your own real life avatar. Because that way, you get to experience the best of virtual world like experiencing it in real life, because you get to see a  3D reflection of you in every scene. In my next post I will be posting photos of my virtual entity aka avatar.

Taking A Different Route

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

Most people blog about things that happens in real life some about their online college degree. The things they do, their experiences, what they have observed, new discoveries, and all that pertains to their daily personal experiences. Some people write about what’s on the news, what’s the hottest product in the market, people dying and people killing people, the hottest trends in fashion, music and sports industry. Some blogs to share their passion in writing, poetry, music, art, and photography. That’s what the usual blogging is all about. I myself prefer to belong to the other side of bloggers, people who blog about their favorite online games, RPG games in particular the newest and hippest softwares to hit the web, but more specifically about virtual life. Sometimes there are things that we can’t do in real life that are possible in virtual reality, you discover people, make new friends, join a community, discover new places, hang out with your friends, and even become famous in the virtual world. A world that the only limit is your own imagination. An escape from reality, and sometimes a stepping stone to finding your dream in real life. A way to make real friends, and to become inspired to make those dreams and adventures real. Today, I will be taking a different route in blogging and take the same journey as those who have gone before me.
