What is more important to you, Gameplay or Graphics? *
Gamplay: You want to be able to do more actions in the game, have more fun. Graphics: You want a game that is visually beautiful.
What visual style do you prefer? *
Anime: The characters would have anime faces, the colors would be more flat and everything would look hand drawn. Realistic: Although we won't achieve photo-realism, the game would be looking more like real life. Textures would be more complex and based on real photos.

Your answer
1st person or 3rd person view? both? *
Do you want a traditional class system or more freedom in your style of play? *
Class system means you choose a style of play/role pretty soon in the game and build your character from there.
How much time do you think is enough to clear a floor? *
Do you mind us scaling Aincrad down to save devlopment time? *
Aincrad is a very big place. We estimated it at 4051 square kilometers, including all 100 floors. To compare, only for the first floor we would have to make a map roughly 2 times the size of Skyrim. There are two main things to consider here. 1:Bigger game = later release. 2: Bigger game mean more traveling and maybe more boring moments.
Combat system. How do you want it? *
Tell us about what type of character you'd be playing in SAO.
Maybe a brave knight, a guild leader or something more dark like an assassin, a rogue or even a red player! Maybe you'd want to be a blacksmith or own a place at the market. What ever you'd like.
Your answer
Are you in favor or against Permadeath? *
Permadeath means when you die, you're character is deleted and you need to start over.
Are you in favor or against Unique Skills? *
Unique Skills are skills that are given to only one single player who deserved it by proving his great abilities. Considering Dual weilding is a unique skill. If you really like dual weilding and some random guy on the server you don't even know get it before you, you won't ever have the chance to fight with two swords at the same time.
Do you want a very clean UI like in SAO or something more traditionnal with a map and other informations?
