The Story:
...
You of course immediately pick Hanzo. Just because everyone logged on first doesn't mean they are the only ones that get to play DPS. You feel your face as you grow facial hair for the first time ever and laugh when you talk with a funny Japanese accent. You immediately spot the nearest building and try to run up it but just smack right into it. Ok, you'll have to work on that. You test out your new bow now, taking shots at small critter rabbits in the area. They aren't worth any XP but you kill a good few with poorly aimed scatter shots. Suddenly in the middle of your VR gaming experience the sky goes dark and an ominous voice sounds over the entire world.
"Muahahaha!" The voice sounds filled with maniacal laughter. "It is I, the game developer! All of you that have bought the pre-release version of my game are now trapped in the VR system!" The voice continues filling you with dread. "Think of Sword Art Online, but completely different! But the same. You must defeat the game to escape back to the real world! That is all." The voice finishes just like that and the sky turns back to normal.
You immediately panic and pull up your menu screen and gasp as you see the exit button is grayed out. What do you do now? Not knowing what else to do you attempt to climb walls a few more times, fail, then continue on to the tutorial. To your surprise it is a bloons tower defense game. Confused, you line up next to a lane and start shooting red bloons as they come. Your arrows pierce through them but they keep coming. One of the attendants tells you that if you lose the game you'll die. You stare at him unknowingly gaping and let two bloons go by while. When you realize you glare at him but he just responds by telling you it is fine, you'll just respawn!
Attention focused on the tutorial you start to kill red bloon after red bloon. At least this is on easy! Then the blue ones come. You use your scatter. It is effective! Eventually camo bloons come but you use your sonic arrow and detect them. But you know that lead bloons are coming and you have no way to deal with them. You don't want to die on the tutorial! You pull up your options as you finish the next wave and spot two players in range that could join your party. Who do you invite?
