Real Kite or AI?

Still new to the .hack// fandom, really new with me still playing the first game, but I'm reading facts and wikis on things and I love this series and wanna collect all the games, read the novels, watch the anime, etc. My biggest question however is from what I don't know about LINK.

Are all the characters from the guild Twilight Knights AI? I'm looking at Kite's LINK wiki page and his race is human and wandering AI so is he the same Kite from the original games or another AI Aura created?

He is AI created by Aura, since LINK is not really time-traveling but rather a simulation. But what are you doing reading about LINK? Go and play them all in order! There is a comprehensive translation of LINK for you to play when the time comes.

Cool, thanks. LINK's section on wiki is kinda empty. Does the real Kite appear again at all?

I'm on the last boss of game 1 and the next one's coming in the mail soon, I just like to research. I don't see any harm in it.

Just try not to read any spoilers, I guess. LINK has one of the best .hack stories!

The real Kite doesn't appear again, since the whole game takes place inside of the Akashic Record. The real Kite doesn't really show up at all after the first series, I'm sure he's off living a humble salaryman life by 2020.

I'm sure he's off traveling like he wanted so I can see how he wouldn't have time for a game, especially one that sends people (his best friend even) to comas, or if old player data gets deleted with the R:2 Updates then doesn't wanna play anymore.

You know any good LP's of LINK? I can't mod or play emulators so I won't be able to play it.

There is one full untranslated one on YouTube with no commentary, but obviously that won't do you too good.
No PSP? Computer not good enough for emulation? I would really look into buying a PSP, since hacking it makes it so worth the money.
I'd really appreciate it especially, since I worked on the latest translation patch!

Emulators and mods confuse me when I try doing them on my own. Plus my PC ain't the best

It's really easy these days. A simple step-by-step YouTube video will do the trick. I agree on emulators, though! Between all the plugins and settings and BIOS and so on I get so lost along the way, especially since it seems like everyone uses their own tailored settings through trial and error.

Yeah, they're just above my head. I wouldn't get a PsP/Vita Emulator but I might try a SNES when I buy a new laptop. So I'll just need to find a good LP on LINK (maybe the manga, unfinished or not) and play the ones I can
