I give five star to translation quality and updates, I give poor rating to story development and world background. why? First time I read this novel, instantly I'm in love with it. so i decide to look for the raw. But what greet me isn't something beautiful, remember Dr. Strange vs Dormamu scenes in marvel movie? thats how it feels when reading this novel, you have been put in a time loop! Yes, this novel selling points is only repetitive story about "what kind of reaction the customer will make when...", MC broadcasting game? reaction time! New game? reaction time! Watching new movie? reaction time! New food? reaction time! I read this novel until c.500 and this repetitive thing is still going. Even the main story is I think only 10%-20% from the whole chapter that I read, I don't know if that was the main story, from what I know, things start getting interesting when its outside the internet cafe... I don't hate sub-chara reaction to something in a novel, instead I love it! I like when they amaze with something MC do. But, if its something like that repetitively used in a novel, its getting boring, its lost its value... Last, If you don't mind that repetitive thing, this novel may be enjoyable for you, the translator do a good job with their translation, and they generous with the updates, so if you can, make sure to support them... Thank you...

LIKESeleniium:the main story is BASED ON a internet cafe, of course its gonna have the story AROUND the internet cafe. you were missing the whole point just based on the meaning of both of the Title and Synopsis
agreed...... and i also like that reaction time part of every arc what i find boring instead is them talking, conversing, dedicating many chapters to some chinese stuff that only chinese can relate....... and also it is boring (for me) whenever author tries to dedicate many chapters repeating same mission on games or repeatedly doing same story quests
update. actually its quite good in the 600-8xx? especially when WoW game released. what makes this novel boring is all about chinese stuff (games, movies), because I never play or watch any of them maybe? but from the description in the novel they sounds boring. you can just skip chapter about chinese stuff like Legends of Swords and Fairy, its boring af. Last, the ending is meh, actually its good when they start opening an Arcade Game Hall in new realm, but the author want quickly to end this novel because he understand its just the same fukin' reaction to game or movies if he keep writing this novel, XD
