    Overall review: Worthy of a shot, but I'm not sure if I'd recommend it yet. Due to the low amount of chapters published, I'll be waiting for more updates.
    Ehem, detailed review:
    Style
    Uniquely expressed, especially with the different fonts and the use of symbols. The paragraphs are easy to read, but I believe that your vocabulary can be extended (not that it falls short, just a suggestion). Try to give more descriptions about the visuals and the mc himself to give more 'life' to the sentences. E.g. The signature medieval buildings presented towering arcs that oversee the central plains, or something like that– whatever fits you.
    p.s. There is this blue box thing RR readers absolutely love. It's actually a table you can insert from one of the writing features.
    Story
    As I said, the plot alone is interesting enough to garner a lot of readers, so I don't think there's an advice to give at this early moment. The reason I put a 4 is because I need more content.
    Grammar
    In this aspect, I have no right to say anything, but 4★ means a decent grammar. Why? Because I'm not a native English speaker and though I'm fluent, it doesn't necessarily means my grammar excels the same way... I'll leave it to other readers who can review it better.
    Character
    I wish there was more depth to the characters, maybe it was just my preference, but maybe it's also because LitRPG focuses on plot. I tend to like stories that delve into thoughts and emotions, regardless of personality (sorry... the standard is so engrained in me). If your work does not focus on this aspect, no worries, I'll still come back once you're in more chapters. And change the ratings once you have that significant 'character development'.
    I see potential, but definitely needed the effort to let it grow prosperously.
