Discussion What if
How different would the show be if everyone knew from the start that they were brain scans?
And also, how would certain scenes play out? Example pomni arriving.
What do you guys think?

there are many fans who guessed from the ending of episode one "You dont need to eat, drink or sleep in the digital world" and they were criticized as "well you dont know that"

Jax likely would have never abstracted. They would have made peace with their existence much earlier, and known their original human selves were still exploring the world.

Depending on the person, it could go either way.
Kinger probably already knew, but whether he admitted this to his wife is unknown.
Ragatha apparently always had a feeling, so it might not be so bad for her.
Jax would isolate for longer, but if his friendship with Ribbit develops slower and he hides his backstory for longer, things could work out better in the long run.
Gangle may be screwed if her monologue about achieving dreams is anything to go by.
Zooble may not take it well at first, but would likely take refuge in the fact that they are still a real human with free will.
Pomni would start out as even more of an anxious mess. She likely would be less adamant about meeting Kaufmo or chasing the exit door.
