Great story! Haters will hate, but it’s got it all! It’s got the action, the romance, cliffhangers n suspense, non omnipotent omnipresent MC making the choices and living the consequences. If you find yourself not enjoying the story I suggest trying nonfiction?

It's not worth it man. I read a lot of it and a lot of it is good, but the author is so annoying with the nerfs or bullsh*t happenings. John is made out to be this intelligent character with a high ass wisdom as a *stat* and yet he does so much stupid sh*t. It's not fun reading because the thing that will be very clear to the reader ends up becoming so painfully infuriating when John doesn't do it.

Furthermore, the story has so many filler arcs or episodes. A lot of this story ends up becoming training sequences, whereas the rest is genuine happenings or smut. I'm fine with training, but when it becomes 10 chapters in a row of training with changes here and there? It's a bit much, even if things do go on during that.

I really can't recommend you read this story unless you have an absurd amount of patience, as I've blasted these chapters for the past 3 days and deeply, deeply regret that time. Would I like it more if it I didn't do that? Maybe, but I think a story should be enjoyable in both short and long sittings.

I have read 150+ chapter at chyoa. Tldr: MC is a hypocrite and how the author tries to shove the 'harem' (it is more of a open relationship since the dragon girl also have s*x with other dude, gaia even pinged 2-way polygamy achievement or some sh*t, and I dont care if she changed after chapter 150+ since I cant be bother to continue) plot into ur throat forcefully. Dont waste your time like me, I wasted 2 days on this sh*t (could have done other things).

As a fan of Funatic's other two stories I was expecting great things, and as at Chapter 33 not disappointed - in fact surprised at how this exceeded my expectation.

The MC - John - is a nerd and typically socially awkward, but the arrival of a 'system' allows him to change his life by changing himself. Has all the typical LitRPG elements you'd expect, and while Funatic has the MC choose different options than, say, I would  if I was in his position, they are logical and consistent to the author's vision of the character.

As for the plot and world building, it is first class, and what I've come to expect from the author, but as will their other  stories, it is the character interactions that lift each from just being good to being outstanding.

I know this is more a gushing review of how good it is than an explanation of what you are going to read, but I don't think you need to know more than - try it, you won't be disappointed.

So I noticed a bunch of people dropped out early because MC had the IQ of a goldfish.

Well, I stuck through it, hoping that the "cunning protagonist" tag wasn't a lie, and yes, MC stops being a cringey idiot eventually.

Yippee.

Like the reading status says I'm caught up on CHYOA and this story is great. Since it releases nearly daily, it's become part of my daily schedule to enjoy a chapter. 

I have seen the other reviews here and some are really disappointing, , , This is a story that developed over multiple years in daily increments, so the beginning is obviously not as good as the latest chapters. But IMO this is definitely worth staying on.

This is my first story I’ve read by Funatic and I’m truly impressed! Great storyline and amazing character development. I hope this will one day be available in audio format.

As a general rule of thumb, if someone reads 200+ chapters of a story and doesn't have anything good or even neutral to say about it in a review, he's not really reviewing the story, he's just ranting. That is not to say the story is perfect, but it certainly has a lot of merit in my opinion, and as opposed to many other stories, this one starts a bit slow and gets better the longer it goes on. I'll just to address the case of the "Dragon girl" first

Now for the actual review, now as the summery says the MC is a nerd who got video game powers one day, the basic premise The Gamer Manhwa but everything from the characters to the rest of the world setting, MC's build is very different and the MC is not as OP but still powerful, the caveat to those abilities that they actually take some time to develop, that also goes for the MC personality.

MC probably starts off with one of the weakest personalities that I know of. He's timid, unwise and can barely talk without a stutter and is somewhat naïve, that alone will turn off a lot of people, but the thing is throughout the story his character actually develops, he becomes stronger, wiser, loses his naïve nature and becomes a bit more ruthless.
He also develops a lot due to his relationships in the story, be it his girlfriend, Harem members, friends or enemies. But the thing is again, it takes him some time to develop, and he does make a lot of mistakes.
That brings me to the characters in this story, which is one of it's strongest points, characters have actual personalities, motives and still continue to evolve as the story continues, the banter is also a very strong point of this author in general.
Especially true when talking about Harem members, which interact a lot with each other and not only with the MC, which also brings me to another point, Although the MC is the only male member of the harem and is the "centerpiece" Harem, the members do interact with each other a lot, both s*xually and not.
They are also not "discarded" as soon as the MC wins them over, which is fairly common in Harem stories.
This also causes the story to have a lot of slice of life parts, they are very entertaining but some might find that off-putting.

As for his powerset, for a large part of the story he's a fairly standard elemental summoner with some mage powers, that means he's somewhat squishy and weak but has a huge amount of mana and mana regeneration, his powers later on evolve beyond this basic build, that give him some control over his gamer mechanics, s*xual stuff and more.

As for the journey itself, it begins small and grows with time, I won't spoil much of it here but the stakes do get bigger with each arc of the story, it's also a larger world and the MC sometimes stumbles on enemies that he can't really handle and he does suffer for it, but that also makes the story feel more realistic in my opinion, and as I said before he learns from those mistakes.

Overall, if we go by the earlier arcs of the story I'd give it around 4.3 but as the story goes on the arcs really improve so I'd give it an almost perfect score if it wasn't for people giving it 1-2 stars. Give it a shot and you won't regret it if you have some patience.

So, if you are reading this, I will say that the start is slow. There may be themes that you find questionable. The main character may leave you scratching you head in a "Why did they do that?" sort of way. I completely understand. However, if you stay along for the ride, and watch where everything collides, it'll be a very interesting ride. Those of us over at the original version of this masterpiece, have come to the understanding that this is not a smut book with some plot sprinkled in, ore even a plot book with smut sprinkled in. Its an adventure where the plot and smut compliment each other. Could you have one without the other? Yes. But it would be EXTREMELY lacking. All in all, give it an honest chance. I you don't like certain bits, then skip them. There is plenty here for many people.
