This is identical to Underworld Gamers. 😑 do these people just copy and paste but change slight details? I was hoping for something more creative but it’s basically the same except in space. There’s even “dark” goblins being referenced as cheap labor. Wonder where they got the ideas for goblins? 🙄 this is such a pathetic copy and paste novel. It’s like copyrights have no meaning to these Chinese novelists. Let’s say, even if this novel came first, (which maybe it did) it still doesn’t change the fact that this is nearly identical to Underworld. It’s even got the whole earthlings reviewing the game aspect. What a disappointment.

Well, that’s pretty much what happens. They take a storyline and just change the details. “What story should I write?” “This is popular, let’s copy this”

Its actually incredibly different you just didn't care enough to pay attention to it. While the theme may be the same, the approach is entirely different and actually a lot better imo. First of all the Mc has a lot more hands on involvement with the players and actively gives them more options unlike gamers of the underworld where we're expected to believe that people would be happy sitting around and doing dull and monotonous manual labor for 8 hours a day. Second of all the world building is much more satisfying and clear for the reader, in gamers of the underworld we know next to nothing about the world and it stays that way until it becomes relevant, whereas in this novel you find yourself immersed in the story and world within the novel. It may be a rehash of one concept but it's a much more complete and fulfilling novel. Just think of it as a sequel, except that the prequel of the novel was actual garbage and this version just straight up fixes everything that was wrong with the first attempt.

Nah bro it’s literally identical except for it being space version. All of the elements are exactly the same from the boss to the butler to the players to the review system to the entire freaking premise. Sure, more world building, uh.. okay? Literally every other aspect is identical. You’re just arguing over semantics that JUST because there was a tiny bit of additional info given it’s somehow a completely different story? I mean you start off saying i didn’t pay attention because it’s so different at the start of your argument but then you end it saying for us to imagine it’s a continuation of the same book just done better. Bro, which is it? You’re making my argument for me. Just admit it. It’s literally identical except for being “in space” and there’s a little extra time spent on world building.

Oh man I never saw this comment so it took til now for me to respond. First of all in the other novel there was never any threat of attacks from other dungeons which is a new take on the way the players will be used. in addition to this rather than just having the players be a bunch of weak and ****ty goblins, they start off as an although cheap race, strong with potential. and second of all my point was that it was never something brand new, its just a better version of something that had potential but was wasted. Additionally there are countless differences that enhance the story for the readers such as it happening in the same universe and in the same galaxy to boot, conflicts with other lords, players gradually realizing that this is in fact set in the real world, the way the players influence the real world, the way the mc isn't a stingy piece of ****. and these are just the main differences, that make it much more enjoyable. and thats my entire argument

It's identical yeah, but you don't have to get mad about it. Author even admitted to being the author for both at chapter 100 or so just having used a different penname. You are right though plenty of people copy paste and even forget to change character names occasionally.

It's funny how you used a wall of words to try and refute but ended up verifying him. Besides the author even admitted to being the author for both under another penname.

Card Apprentice Daily Log

Dalton Wyatt, a world-renowned scientist and inventor, is transmigrated into the body of a high school student, also named Dalton Wyatt, who had tragically committed suicide due to unfortunate circumstances and a complicated life. The enchanting world of cards he finds himself in is vastly different from Earth, yet eerily similar in certain aspects. Unlike the peaceful Earth, where humans fought only amongst themselves, this new world is plagued by dungeons and monsters. Here, humanity's survival hinges on battling these mythical and legendary creatures. Ordinary mortals lack the strength to stand against such formidable foes. Thankfully, a select few are blessed with the ability to harness their souls, manifest soul power, and become card apprentices—humanity’s last hope against extinction. Card apprentices are individuals who form contracts with grimoires, mystical artifacts that allow them to wield powerful and versatile cards to fend off monsters and conquer dungeons. A grimoire provides card apprentices with abilities such as card creation and card fusion. Most importantly, it enables them to unlock their full potential in card battles. While this world shares the concept of science with Earth, its focus is not on electronics or industrialization. Instead, cards replace the need for most technologies, fulfilling even the smallest of daily necessities. This world revolves entirely around the grimoire’s abilities, particularly card creation and card fusion. Transmigrated to a place where strength can be bought with money, Dr. Wyatt is forced to earn a living to ensure his survival. Fortunately, with his otherworldly knowledge and expertise, card creation comes naturally to him, setting him apart from other card apprentices. Dr. Wyatt crafts and sells perfect, powerful, and resourceful cards, steadily growing stronger in this monster-ridden world. --- "What did you say? Making good cards is hard? Bah! Card creation is a breeze." "My friend, let me enlighten you—there are no 'trash card ingredients,' only incompetent card creationists." [Commencing card creation using ingredients, i)Bloody Veins - G Rank, Mortal Grade ii)Nyon Rope - G Rank, Mortal Grade iii)Common Core - G Rank, Mortal Grade Card creation… complete! Card Name: Bloody Rope Card Type: Item Card Card Rank: E Rank, Common Grade Card Rating: 3 Stars Card Durability: 100/100 Card Effect: The Bloody Rope can bind and incapacitate its target. When in contact with a target’s wound, it triggers paralysis and blood drain effects. Additional Effect: Paralysis, Blood Drain] "This can’t be real! You used G-rank mortal-grade ingredients and yet crafted an E-rank common-grade card with full durability and a three-star rating? This isn’t real—I must still be dreaming! I couldn’t possibly have woken up today—this has to be a dream!"
