NewWorld Online

NewWorld Online, or NWO, is the name of the game where much of BOFURI takes place.

Description
NewWorld Online is a virtual-reality MMORPG. Much like other MMORPGs, people logging in for the first time encounter a wide open space and are allowed to choose their preferred weapon. Their weapon has a high impact on the kind of character they can become as many skills are directly related to the weapon you pick.

It is also possible to specialize in crafting instead of combat.Crafters receive a massive penalty to any and all damage they would deal with a weapon or skill. On the other hand, thrown items such as bombs are not affected by this reduction. There is even a dungeon that is restricted to crafters-only. None of the monsters inside are hostile unless attacked, and they can be defeated utilizing crafting skills such as mining.

General
Layers: The game is separated into different floors as you will, much like SAO. NewWorld Online however is not a massive castle and each would-be floor is a Layer.

Environment: Players can find themselves in many extreme situations in NWO. Some of these situations could include being covered in snow on a mountain, walking through a desert or lava, and being covered in fire or other elemental attacks. These extreme conditions are offset by the system to prevent any health constraints. The snow that falls on your head doesn't feel cold and you don't become dehydrated while walking through a desert.

Quests: Players acquire quests through many means, such as picking up an item or talking to an NPC. The rewards vary greatly from a little money or experience to acquiring game-breaking skills. Many quests have simple limitations such as equipment-type, stat amounts, or a chain of minor actions.

Character
Stats: Refers to HP, MP, STR, VIT, AGI, DEX, and INT. These basic scores define a character. Every two levels, a player receives 5 stat points. On levels ending in 0 (10, 20, etc.), they receive 10 instead. HP and MP increase by more than 1 per point but the amount hasn't been specified. ''Based on web novel chapters 36 and 57, Sally's status is shown and her level goes from 21 to 24 (10 points) with her INT going up by 5 and her MP going up by 20. This could imply 1 point is 4 MP. ''
 * A high VIT score scales down the damage received by poison.
 * There are skills that affect the 1-for-1 ratio for stats such as Absolute Defense and Conqueror (Maple and Yui respectively).

Skills: Players can acquire skills by repeating actions while meeting their prerequisites. These actions might be as simple as defeating something with your shield 15 times, buying some items from a store, receiving multiple poison attacks, or using skill scroll. Prerequisites also may be as simple as having 10 in a specific stat. Though skills may be forgotten, the only way to acquire them again is paying a fee. The fee is either 50,000 or 500,000, varying between different media.
