It’s simple physiology

BY TYLER LOWRY

First an explanation

Sword Art Online Sword Art Online is a science

fantasy anime series adapted from the light novel series

Plot In 2022, a Virtual Reality

Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG) called Sword Art Online (SAO) is released. With the NerveGear, a helmet that stimulates the user's five senses via their brain, players can experience and control their in-game characters with their minds.

Hears where things get interesting

A guy named Akihiko Kayaba who is the founding creator of the game and it’s user interface changed the rules upon release.

Kayaba made it so the players can not loge out, and if their caricature die in the game they die in real life.

This change in the game obviously created a lot of panic and mayhem along with its phycological effects.

Many of the players were scared to say the least.

But what happened to Akihiko Kayaba?

Where was he hiding?

It’s simple, Where better to hide then in plane site?

There's nothing more boring than watching someone else play an RPG.

Akihiko Kayaba became a player known as Heathcliff

Why?

Right about now you may be wondering what physiological disorder did I choose for this project.

Well it’s an extremely common one that most of you have experienced, the disorder that I chose is Boredom.

Boredom There are a few conditions that need to be met for people to feel

bored. First, people need to have a reasonable level of psychological energy or arousal to feel bored. When people have low arousal and there is not much happening in the world, then they often feel relaxed. When they have high arousal, though, they have energy they would like to devote to something, but they cannot find anything engaging.

boredom typically occurs when people have trouble focusing their attention and they believe the reason for this difficulty is in the environment.

Akihiko Kayaba was board with his life and had factices of a world of his own design.

Akihiko Kayaba was an extrema case of boredom but we have all experienced boredom. Sitting in a class where the teacher is droning on about a topic you don’t care about, you may have found yourself daydreaming or staring at a clock that doesn’t seem to be moving.
