Do you have to say anything to activate a NerveGear? I was wondering if you had to say anything to activate a NerveGear. I remember Kirito saying something before he went into the SAO world but I can't remember what. I thought he might have said something to activate the NerveGear, but I don't know if he actually did or if my memory is playing tricks on me. Can someone please help me figure this out?
To use the NerveGear, the player wears the game console over the head. Then it is recommended for the player to find a comfortable position to station the body, commonly a bed. Afterwards, the game will load upon utterance of the initiation words, "Link Start".
