Best Videogame based novel read in a while. The balance between the real world and in-game world is amazing 😍.

I’ll start my review of this novel by saying outright that Pancakes is my favorite author on webnovel, and I throughly enjoy their novels, so there may be some inherent bias in my review. And everything written below is personal opinion. I have currently read up to chapter 132, and really enjoy this novel as it differs from Pancakes other works like Epic of Caterpillar, DQR, and World Traveling. I really enjoy the balance of slice of life elements that are vital to the understanding of the MC Elayne and the other supporting characters like her daughter Elena, friend Rika and others. Mixed in with the action elements that occur through the VRMMO that is the key element of this story. The main reason that our MC started to play is quite admirable as she wishes to get closer to her daughter after passing of her husband 5 years ago. None of the characters so far feel one dimensional or flat and each adds a unique aspect to the world building and overall story. While some readers may question certain relations between characters I found overall that the characters are very well thought out. The world building in this novel has been developing at a steady pace throughout, both in elements of the “real world” and BNLO VRMMO world. Pancakes has an extremely firm grasp on mythological and fantasy elements as seen throughout their writing and other novels. The hinted possible fusion of the “game” and “reality” hints to more elements to be revealed about the world and universe at large that Pancakes has constructed in their other novels. While having read the other novels provides more insight into these foreshadowing elements it is not require at all in order to understand and enjoy this novel. The pacing of this story may seem slow to those that enjoy quick paced and action packed stories. The slower pace of this novel really fits the characters and the world in my opinion. As I mentioned earlier the slice of life elements and action come together to form in my opinion a cohesive plot line. Pancakes has great update stability, and in my time as a reader of theirs I cannot remember a time that they missed an update ever. In terms of writing quality grammatical errors are few and quite rare, however my own grammatical knowledge isn’t the greatest. Give the novel a try!

Re: Evolution Online

On just another normal Monday, a new virtual reality game called "Evolution Online" launched out of nowhere and took the world by storm. People were blown away by the game’s hyper-realistic features and endless adventures. Everyone from small companies to big corporations and governments scrambled to get a foothold on this mysterious video game. But what they didn't know was that this game was actually a tutorial for the upcoming apocalypse that was about to hit the planet! The game was a precursor to the Earth's first evolution, where mana was going to be unleashed into the real world! Liam, a high school student who had faced numerous setbacks in his life, turned to 'Evolution Online' in the hope of changing his fate, but instead, he got trapped in the game's twisted world, and things went from bad to worse. When the apocalypse finally arrived, Liam barely managed to escape, but his situation didn't improve. Along with millions of others, he died a miserable death, unable to fight back and filled with regret. However, Liam's story didn't end there. He found himself inexplicably transported back in time before everything started! Armed with the knowledge of what was to come, Liam was determined to become the strongest and most powerful player, unleashing destruction upon the world that had ruined him before! This time, things were going to be different! ******************* Discord Link for chatting with author and character art https://discord.gg/XS7gWScKn8
