The life of an author is one of constant learning, and I welcome Taius heartidly, it is important to know that this is meant to be constructive, not dismissive or derisive. Below is advice to be considered or thrown away freely.
Makin is Better Then Breakin has an alluring premise, one that has the potential to strike a chord in those who enjoy pieces like Sword Art Online, that said, the text has a long way to go.
Script (commonly referred to as greentext nowadays) style isn't an issue in an of itself. The work at hand however, needs serious polish. It subjugates itself to head talker syndrome, uncomfortably long spaces where one character speaks to the other with a dearth of description or nonverbal communication going around. Secondly, the content as presented is rather sparse. In many places, a little bit of prose could draw a lot of reader interest, like a semi-detailed description of the VR start up process followed by an internal narrative tract of Alex's feelings. What does he feel, smell and hear? What is opinion about his surroundings and can he relate it to other experiences? These things are instrumental in building rapport with readers.
For style examples written in script form, I would recommend Othello, The Crucible, and 12 Angry Men, the latter of which I found a pdf for on the top of Google's results page. Simply nix references to a stage, curtains and etcetera, and maintain spaced paragraphs.
On another case, the grammar can use help across the board. Comma placement, tense shifts and run-ons abound. This is becoming a trend with RRL fiction, I see. There are many free resources one can obtain through a few quick web searches.
That being said, the character building and story craft thus far isn't bad per se. I just wish there was more content per chapter. Much of the little points made can be expanded upon, the buds are already there, all that needs to be done is to comb through the story from the beginning to apply a bit of growth formula.
