The book started with great promise, particularly with its well-crafted world-building. The author clearly put thought into creating a unique and immersive setting, and for a while, it kept me thoroughly engaged. However, my enthusiasm faded as the story progressed. As the plot neared its end, it became clear that the pacing was rushed. Instead of building up to a satisfying resolution, it felt as though events were condensed, leaving many plot points unresolved. Frustratingly, it ended without truly wrapping up the story, leaving me feeling like I’d invested in a journey that never reached its destination. To make matters worse, the main character became more of a side character in the later chapters and he even got told that, yet he doesn’t care, making the character arc feel incomplete. This shift diminished the emotional connection I’d formed with them, and I found myself losing interest as they faded into the background. In summary, while the book offers a richly developed world, the story ultimately falters due to its rushed pacing and an unsatisfying conclusion. It’s a read that began with great potential but left me disappointed.

It literally ended In a way like this basically: -you’re a special item that I won in a tower. -oh ok. -they entered a 90th floor of a tower and the book ended That’s literally how this book ended, so disappointing, it didn’t finish the arc, it didn’t finish anything, he just became a two digit existence and it ended

Yeah the ending is way better, unfortunately it got rushed because of the author health, but at least I don’t feel so disappointed no more

I finished reading the raws after a week. It was a good story. The author really did a good job. Even though he was forced to end it at chapter 327 because of health problems. While I was expecting it to end soon, the way he wrote it didn't seem like it was rushed because it was a plausible possibility. The thing I liked the most about this novel was the plot, and how the author could always come up with ideas for simulations. Unfortunately the author is bad at fight scenes, but to be honest I didn't realize that until around chapter 260, because even if he can't write detailed blood-pumping fight scenes, and it's more like a general summary, the plot of the novel itself is great enough.To be honest, I usually hate romance in these novels, and I remember being annoyed when Wang Ping kept marrying and dying in simulations because of that in the first few chapters. But still, after Ji Bingyue and Xue'er were introduced and became Wang Ping's partner in those specific simulations. Because of the impact they played I liked their characters and I always wondered if he would choose them as a partner. Though that hope was killed when the truth about Ji Bingyan was revealed.The ending was okay. It ties in with the start but I feel kind of sad that it showed him alone rather than with friends/family or a partner.Though it ends at chapter 327 don't think it's short. Most of the authors chapters are 10k words long so it's actually not a quick novel to finish. I checked Qidian and it says the novel has 2.157 million words. According to the last authors note, the author said he originally wanted to write 5 million words, but because of health complications he was forced to end it and choose his health over making money which I approve of. Especially since the ending just skipped other things that just just extend word count, and only wrote the important plot.
