Fatal Bullet is a mainline title of the Sword Art Online game series. It's set Hollow Realization in a yet another brand new VRMMO game, one focused on Guns instead of Swords: Gun Gale Online! Fatal Bullet follows a new set of characters, with Kirito and his friends taking the supporting role for once.
Out of any SAO game, this is the one I wanted to play the most. For me, this game offers the best of both RPG gameplay systems and shooting mechanics. I enjoyed the Aim Assist system, and the PvE team battles. Though the most important reason for choosing Fatal Bullet over other SAO video game titles, is that I enjoy the prospect of playing as my own character. Sword Art Online is at its best when Kirito plays the support role in my opinion.
This game isn't perfect, though. The graphics are barely serviceable, and itsn't well-optimized. I used the Better Graphics Mod to fix that. The main storyline is good if a bit sparse. But side-quests, and character events are repetitive and dare I say, Boring! It's as if all the budget was spent on voice-acting. Still, the main gameplay loop is great, and best suited for two-hours daily sessions.
This is my Let's Play/Walkthrough of the game's Main Story mode. This will cover Single Player content only. I won't be uploading my grinding/item farming sessions. I hope you enjoy watching!

38 - Itsuki's Confession
"That's right... Yoyu can't hide your feelings in VR..." -- Itsuki
The protagonist has a one-to-one talk with Itsuki who left the party mid-way... He confesses that he sees me as a true friend, and he's sad that for the protagonist, he's only one of many friends and not special.
I was moved by this scene and I'm happy they used a trait of SAO anime/novel that in VR, your happiness and sadness always show on your Avatar, you can't hide them...
Another big thing that happens in this session is Kureha's declaration. She feels inferior to the protagonist so she decides to remove herself from our friends list, and be on her own for a while... Ouch!
If two big things happening wasn't enough, Kirito comes and reveals that a bunch of NerveGears have been stolen, and since these things are capable of killing people, the culprit must be Death Gun... This is where Kirito Mode opens, and I can play it before the next part of the game. I decided not to.
