CG：5%
Map：50%

Thank everyone for your continued support, and many of you give me a lot of great suggestions. After careful consideration, and since many people want me to add 1 or 2 scenes before AF in event of 7/12, I will spend some time to make that. Creating works that bring joy to everyone has always been my core motivation. I will continue to take each update seriously as always. And sorry for the limited production capacity, as an individual part-time creator, I could hardly spare more time to make the game. I want to ensure the quality without ignoring any event details, so it always takes a lot of time. In addition, the way of expression I used in the events is subtle, so it may cause some misunderstanding. I decide to make a Q&A from time to time. I will pick some frequently-asked or important questions from comments to answer without giving any spoilers in the next report.

e.g., Q&A

Q (No one asked this though): How is the world in this game different from the original anime work?

A: The "Fairy Dance" and "Phantom Bullet" stories did not happen. Since the SEED was not open-sourced by Kirito, there are no large numbers of VR games like in the original work. FOG is the best choice available to all players.

Q: Why is the CG action design so conservative this time?

A: Considering the particularity of Asuna and Inoda's first voluntary real-life sex, she may refuse some advanced sexual positions. As the plot develops, the interaction between the two will escalate. Please look forward to it.

目前的進步報告：
文本進度：20%
事件進度：10%
CG進度：5%
地圖進度：50%

一些說明：
首先感謝大家一直以來的支持，以及不少玩家提出的寶貴意見。因為不少人希望我加入一些7/12事件中正戲前的描寫，經過慎重考慮，我會追加一到兩個場景到這個事件里。
創作能被大家喜歡的作品，始終是我的核心動力。若有一天我的作品無法達到大家的期待，那一定是我才思枯竭之時。但我絕不會為維持贊助而勉強應付，如果沒有人喜歡的話，我也會自行退場。在那之前，我會一如既往地認真對待每次更新。當然，也請大家理解個人創作者極其有限的產能水平，以及我對自己的一些要求，儘量不忽視事件中的細節，小到道具的擺放一致，大到人物的行為和心理，我希望至少不會有太大的違和感。另外，關於敘事風格的說明：我更傾向"隱晦敘事"的表現手法，這可能會造成部分玩家對SAO劇情理解的偏差。為此我會偶爾在更新報告中增設問答環節，在避免劇透的前提下解答代表性疑問。大家可以在評論中提出問題，我會隨機選一些不涉及劇透的，或者爭議較大的問題，在下一次報告裡簡單解釋。

首期Q&A：
Q（這個沒人問，我自己想問一下，哈哈）：氣息遮蔽的世界和原著有什麼不同？
A：妖精之舞和幽靈子彈的故事都沒有發生。由於SEED沒有被桐人開源，所以目前也不存在像原著那樣大量的VR遊戲。FOG是所有玩家可選中最出色的。

Q：為何上次CG動作設計較為保守？
A：一開始是考慮到亞絲娜與豬田首次（半）自願現實性行為的特殊性，一些過度的姿勢要求可能引發亞絲娜的拒絕配合。至於後面，二人的互動將不斷升級，是這樣的一個思路。

最後，再次感謝願意支持和鼓勵我的人。
