If you are going to only Skim this Review, then I'll tell you it is a ok story quality-wise, but it is a very fun story. Even though this is a story based around a mmorpg, the author did not think too deeply how mmorpgs work as a game and just used game elements to create story *******. Like how losing a level upon character death is used to create stakes and consequences for the players about to do a risky plays which is compounded as higher levels become very grind heavy. You can see how this would make fights more tense when the odds are against the heroes and death in a game substantial but not fatal. However, when viewed as a game, this mechanic is incredible harsh and not player friendly with how easy it is to die in this game. When you die, you lose the level, the stats that came with it, any skills that unlock on those levels and all proficiency with said skills, and maybe an equipment piece you had now free for anyone to take. These are very powerful reason to not die for a story character, but as a random player, this death penalty will kill alot of player interest. Now if you can ignore all of the game stuff as a possible game and just take those at face value, then you can focus on the best parts. The characters. Alot of main characters are quirky and memorable which leads to alot of fun interactions and situations. I could talk about them in more depth like with the game problems but that will ruin the fun. TL;DR: Story about a bad mmorpg with funny and enjoyable main characters.

Very accurate, thank you
All I will say is to look up Everquest, and that game's death penalty. Then look up the release date. Then the player numbers.

Thanks, Very Helpfull~!!!
Every (all the ones currently being translated at least) Chinese vrmmorpg webnovel has the same penalty for death.
Yeah, that Death Penalty would actually INTEREST a huge number of people that are sick to death of the current MMORPGs out there that hold your hand and coddle you. If you want to compete with others, the harsher the death penalty the better. It makes death matter and people who YOLO or Leroy Jenkins things will quickly be crushed under foot by those whoa re crafty, clever, patient, and intelligent.
The reminds me of Wizardry Online I think it's called.

thanks for the review! I'd like to know, does the rpg world affect the real world in any way? I mean, do people in the real world gain any abilities or powers? I am really not interested in stories where all there is is the mmorpg so people can be real careless because even with a harsh penalty there is no true consequence to death. The idea of constantly fighting and improving doesn't feel right to me because such an 'industry' must be finite and boring. Please, let me know

I don't want to look at it , if you know then tell me yourself
