Just to put this out there, SOMEONE NEEDS TO MAKE A FULL ON MMO OF ALO. The races and everything, and doesn't follow the ALO in SaO. It would be a huge hit!

I would be all for this. Personally, if a VRMMORPG became a thing, I'd want it to be similar to ALO in design and concept. Flight, in my eyes, is the ultimate expression of freedom. The ability to be able to go anyway you want without being restrained by obstacles like trees, cities, etc, is something I think pretty much all people want anyway. Especially if I had to choose between GGO and ALO, I'd go for ALO: not a gun toter to begin with.
I agree! Even though the technology depicted in the SAO novels is still more than a few decades away, I'd be willing to make do with Magic Gate goggles for the time being. The only downside is that creating a real-life SAO/ALO/GGO/etc. would require a HUGE amount of time and energy in terms of programming the game engine, creating graphics, programming the user interface, monster and NPC AIs, etc., so it's not exactly something one or two people could do by themselves, but if a group of skilled programmers and artists were sufficiently serious and put together a decent Kickstarter package, I bet something like a real-world version of ALO wouldn't be inpossible. I'd happily volunteer time and energy as I had it to writing for such a game! ^_^
