If they believe in the Abrahamic God, then they get sent to that dichotomy. Though if they don't believe in an afterlife at all, then see atheists or samsara depending on the specific beliefs involved. And again, what you believe they have as entry requirements doesn't really count for anything unless they actually stick to them.
Which dichtomy? The Abrahamic God's associated afterlives have had a wide variety of entry requirements. Heck, different sects of Christianity not only have vastly different entry reqirements, but some have a whole different type of afterlife (Purgatory) added to the mix.
Not helping matters are the inconsistencies of Biblical verses on of it's deeds or beliefs that get you into heaven.

Point is, either God is somewhat schizophrenic or some are getting judged by the standards of other sects.

(It's entirely probably that I'm overthinking this.)

Probably.

Basically, heaven decides what the rules are. In this case, whether or not you are useful to them.

No... Maybe.

*twirls mustache* Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more!

In all seriousness though, I'm surprised everyone has made more use of the VR stuff.

VR ?

Virtual Reality.

((right, the solve every problem button. doesn't mean shit if your hands keep up with your mind))
Why would they need to keep up?
1. Will sees Hai.
2. Will determines where Hai, on a ballistic trajectory, will be when she zooms by his head.
3. Will outs his hand where Hai will be.
4. Will closes his hand when the lilliputian hits it.

sheer prediction does not replace hand-eye coordination. he needs to move his hand very fast and then close his hand at the exact right time. Dex plays a role here, and not a small one




I mean what, does Wills Mind stat completely replace his Dex stat?


I mean, he just predicts where every enemy attack will go, so of course he dodges them easily. likewise he predicts where they'll move, so he easily hits, all thanks to the power of minmaxing?


sheer intuition means nothing when your body can't keep up. the ability to make very precise movements, especially when moving very fast is hand-eye coordination and muscle memory from training, or put together, dexterity. It's the difference between putting theory into practise. Like a scientist and an engineer. I know a ton of stuff about the haber bosch process, because I study chemistry, but even if I had accurate blueprints, high quality tools and months of time, I'd not be able to properly built a fucking reactor

Smaller than you'd think. Where do you think Will is? How are you getting high speeds without being visible a good way out? Pretty much the only thing you need timing for, if you know their trajectory (which is exactly what Will's power can do), is close your hand...and wouldn't you know, people have a reflex for that kind of stuff.

Well, it's a possibility Elf and I discussed. In actual combat, it costs mana, but out of combat mana is restored fast enough that we don't actually track it.

Again, it takes less swift split-second timing than you'd imagine. Unless of course Hai was invisible and silent.
