Review Detail of Aus_Aniki in The Power of Ten: Sama Rantha

As someone with no D&D background, I'm thrilled that the author succeeds in drawing in the reader by virtue of a fast-paced, action packed story that literally rips you past any numbers you don't understand as you are drawn to the next battle and evolution. Starting with an over-powered (and over-knowledged) protagonist instead of the usual weak-to-strong lets us revel as the characters rip through the world as they wish, instead of as the current week story arc requires. The characters in this lovingly crafted action epic are overpowered due to knowing the ins-and-out of their world and systems,n rather than chance encounters and storyline deus-ex-machinas gifting strength. I highly recommend you keep reading until Sama Rantha leaves the dream and the story splits (11 chapters in), it caters less to stat numbers and focuses more on world and character; it maintains both storylines at once to keep either path from getting monotonous.

Thanks for the review! As you noticed, the numbers fall off in importance as the story progresses, but never go away, being secondary to the story, but still important to the interaction with the environment. As the characters are all gamers, they are always going to see things in terms of numbers, because they know those numbers mean something, and exploit them for all they are worth.
