We're not far from land-based drone warfare controlled remotely.

Just wait until we start fighting wars on distant planets with mechs connected to FTL comms.

The line between intriguing and scary blurs even further...

you are right, and the line between sci-fi and reality is also blurring in a scary fast tempo.
Who knows what the future might bring!

Wow. This is amazing. You truly are great storyteller. I was left entranced from the beginning to the last word. Looking forward to the next part.

thank you very much for your kind feedback. Makes me happy to hear that you enjoyed it so much, especially from a great writer like you!

Wow and a masterpiece again!!! You are unbelievable. Your creativity is limitless. Part II have to come soon....

glad you liked it! I will do my best to post part 2 soon!

No seriously this story has to become a movie! I am completely blown away. 1 day after you released it I am still thinking about it.

Pretty deep my Brother. This one could fill about 800 pages. My Kiindle awaits!

thank you, appreciate it! And we'll see about the kindle part. Maybe in the future!

Awesome stuff man check out my ideas of Steemit vs Virtual Reality :D
https://steemit.com/vr/@stealthtrader/the-future-steemit-digital-world

this storyline is a million dollar idea.
I'm waiting for "pro gamers" in the cinema. just sayin ;)

thank you - who knows what's to come in the future!

WOW. what a plot! your creativity is crazy!

I was so shocked when I read he was shooting real people. thats crazy, and scarily not far from the present technology.. :S

you sir are CREATIVE. wow. how did you come up with this amazing plot - a gamer that shoots actual humans?! so genius.

Wow once again reading your story felt like watching a movie! Can't wait for the next part :)

glad to hear that you liked it. This story would come to life even more in movie form!

This was fantastic!
The finding out that the 'game' was indeed real reminded a bit of Ender's Game. Which is a good thing :)

thank you, appreciate that!
I didn't actually know Enders Game before, but I just googled it and now I see what you mean!

Yea, I didn't want my comment to come of in the sense of "it's been done before." I love seeing how people deal ethical realizations like that.

I highly recommend the book (the rest in the series are ok, but the first is awesome) which is an easy read, on par with DaVinci code. The movie doesn't fully do it justice, in my opinion.

my favorite story of yours (so far). wish I had lots more SP because this story deserves to be on the front page. I hope many people read it

Really cool and interesting! Your writing is awesome! And you also added some good gif to keep the entertainment on!

Love this!!

thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it and makes me happy to hear that you enjoyed it!

I'm blown away by your story. that's such a crazy Idea and I could imagine a whole book or movie about this plot

I hope everyone reads this story because that idea is just genius.

obviously, scary in real life, but genius for a story.

when I read the part about killing real people, you totally got me. That's such a crazy but amazing idea.
and it's scary how close we are to something like that actually happening.
technology always has its good and bad sides!!

definitely, it all depends on how we humans choose to develop and use the technology!

so excited for part 2, wish I could upvote this multiple times! absolutely creative + unique storyline!

So interesting. I'm ready for the next post!

that is SUCH a great idea for a story. deserves all the upvotes!!

nice plot development

It sure seems we are heading this direction.

@sirwinchester did you post this or something similar before? Because I totally recognize the story.

nope I didn't, you must have read it somewhere else. This idea just came to my mind and I thought it would make an interesting plot!

This is a brilliant storyline. I actually just saw the Microsoft Vive virtual reality headset demonstration at a mall near me. And I have a friend who does this very thing for the military that was not able to tell me any details beyond that he flew drones.

It seems there will be more and more uses for drones (both productive and destructive) in the near future from military to delivery to selfie.

I feel like you should write a post about some of the things you struggle with @sirwinchester. I don'y know anyone that doesn't love your work, but I feel like some people would love to know some of the areas you have to work on daily or things in your life that you have had to battle.

I honestly cannot think of a post I didn't love or enjoy (except maybe the get togethers in Germany, since I live so far away and would love to attend).

Thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed it!
I'm interest to see as well where the drone industry will go in the future.

Well, I want to learn more and I'm definitely not good at everything yet!
I'm so active in many areas because I consider learning my hobby. And it's fun for me, which is why I don't tend to struggle with it. I enjoy the learning process, of course you are not great at the beggining, but you slowly get better and better. There are always new things that I want to learn.
I rather struggle with things that happen unexpectedly - business deals or happenings that turn out different than they were planned. But of course, I try to adapt to every situation and make the most of it!

You are very good at using your skills to problem solve and be creative. I'd be interested in seeing how you progressed as a young adult and what your family is like and support or criticism you have received from them for your many business ventures.

Even telling more about how you managed to save up for such a cool first car and what type of work you did to attain it. Whether or not you were inspired by your parents or friends to start businesses and some of the most important lessons you've learned. Like what you wish your past self would have known and benefited from (if that makes sense).

You have such a different life than so many I know, so I find it fascinating how you reached and maintain your impeccable work ethic and creativity. (Your quest for knowledge and passion to learn answers a large piece of that).

Looking forward to part 2.

Couldn't tell if this story is real or not.

Hey! I'm new in Steemit, i was navigating and saw your story. Oh my god! it is awesome, keep doing it. Greetings from Venezuela.

What a great story couldnt stop reading till the end.Excellent story thanks for sharing this blog.

what an awesome storyteller you are. the plot is so tense, I cant wait for part 2! Virtual reality is already VERY close to our actual reality, so who knows if this might happen in the future!
