About the book: year / Another landing of elderly players in virtual worlds in the new book by Konstantin Reader. Each person, upon reaching retirement age, could submit an application to local authorities and become a participant in the “virtual games” program. At the expense of the state, the pensioner received a modern virtual capsule absolutely free of charge. Within a week, it was delivered, installed, and a subscription to one of the virtual reality games with the effect of complete immersion was paid for. In addition, a small cash allowance was paid, which depended on the length of stay in virtuality. Unfortunately, the amount sufficient to live in reality without financial difficulties began to be paid if the retired player was in the game for at least 18 hours. Why money is needed then, if a person is always in a different reality, remained unclear. The duration of stay in the game was stipulated at the conclusion of the contract and it was possible to change the specified period only after three years from the moment of the first entry into the game. Provided fourteen days of vacation per year, the player could use as he chose, without entering virtuality on any independently chosen day or series of days.
