Not really. More like Sword Art Online.

I think there was an American horror movie with this concept long before Sword Art Online even.

Yeah, wasn't it something like a VR game with a weird host? And turns out the murders the player was doing in the game were actually real?

Brainscan, with Edward Furlong. Not something I would call "good," but it can be a fun watch.

I don't know. Never actually watched it. I just remember the trailer

That's the one! I was trying to find it for about an hour or so and came up with a bunch of other movies featuring VR, but couldn't find that title.
I only watched it as an 11 year old and I remember the twist blowing my mind at the time. Now I'd probably guess how it was going to end within 10 minutes as it is terribly clich.

If im.not mistaken a guy has done this. Never used it or is gonna sell it but he just wanted to prove more less it could be done. It was something you wore your head. Forget what it did but it was some science shit rather than splattering your head or something

That already exists. Demon's Souls, the Dark Souls trilogy, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring all have specially-marked Euthanasia Edition versions of their respective games, which come with a USB-linked cyanide syringe peripheral that automatically injects you with the contents the first time you die (the second time for Bloodborne, since dying once gets you into the Hunter's Dream for the first time).

Rumor has it that ActiBlizz was looking into doing something similar with Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time (albeit with an alternate, cartoonier method of death, in the form of a huge, heavy anvil held above the player with a rope and pulley), but I think the Microsoft buyout and then the mass layoffs might have screwed over those plans.

Guess no one's getting very far in Demon's Souls

Major lawsuits and they would get shut down in a month at most. Only a fucking idiot would make a game this way as it would not be profitable and it would make the game makers and creators legally responsible for the murder of people.

No shit. I could however see it as a form of torture on like POWs that they don't really care if they die or not.

How would you go about beating a real-death Dark Souls? Grind for a year on weak enemies before proceeding?

This was one of the arguments against Dungeons & Dragons back in the 80's.
People were claiming that players were committing suicide IRL if their character died.

They were basically making Dungeons & Dragons a cult thing.

T'was some crazy shit back then.

I had a dream about this once as a kid. But instead of me that played it, it was Darren from Bewitched. Naturally, he died because otherwise it wouldn't have been much of a story. I remember Sam was p upset.

I dunno, I had lots of bizarre dreams as a kid.
