Dataverse in the Physical Sense - Shade - 10-22-2015
Quote:Okay, so the Dataverse looks like Tron does in the most recent movie? With cities and program/people? Where within this would you find the entrances to the various sub zones then? I do at some point wish to enter the Dataverse and traverse it, as well as I may resumbit my Code: Lyoko sub-zone for consideration, with better definition of course, and I'm confused on how would would actually travel to a secotion of the Dataverse that does not fit within the confines of the Tron-like setting. With a Megaman Net style Dataverse, then that would easily be solved, as there are teleport-pad-like things that take you to different section of net, a physical representation of entering the objects port to the net.

Quote:The Dataverse is as varied as it is vast, and contains many areas created by programmers and programs alike. All the separate areas of the Dataverse are connected by the Information Highway, a massive 'river' of data. There are many junctions and crossings that lead off into separate 'sub-worlds' in the Dataverse.
Quoted from the Dataverse information.
Essentially, One area may have a Tron styled setting, but when you travel to another area (say File Island) It's appearance can change and look like the Digital world.

So... You just like, grab a boat and float on down?

I guess so? Be creative.

Well I'm not getting a lot to go on really. Kinda makes it hard to come up with something without knowing if it's exactly correct or not...

Proto described the Highway as a jet-stream of information with Space Invaders enemies in it, Ditto described the Highway as an actual highway with actual cars. If you so choose, I'd say you'd be fine making it a river. It's open to interpretation.
As for locations, if past threads are any indication, it's similarly open to how you want to describe it. Both parties that were in the Dataverse so far went through portals off of the highway to get to new areas. Ditto wrote his zone as a Gotham-esque city and Proto described visiting an iron-works. I'd imagine there's few things you couldn't see there. I like to imagine it as Matrix-ish.

I imagine it as being like a very wide tube of sorts, with exits off like a normal highway. Inside the tube, ships of all sorts are flying back and forth. Like from every video game imaginable. Boats, 8-bit ships, nothing is too zany because it's a virtual world. Maybe there are cars driving on the bottom of the tube too?

I imagined it more like the Dot Hack Games meets Wreck it Ralph

It was kind of a 'meh' game, but I always like Shadow the Hedgehog's version of a digital landscape.
