Description

The year is 2245, and the world has undergone explosive growth in multiple industries. The age of Virtual Reality came long ago, opening up new fields for people to enjoy and seek employment. There were even those that chose to sacrifice their physical bodies, becoming digital existences that lived within internet communities.But with the age of VR, everyone still dreamed of that next step, the next level of adventure. And after a hundred years, it has finally arrived. The first consoles, known as Seeds, mass distributed among the people, with such realism that they no longer qualified as a Virtual Reality, but as an Artificial Reality. But what happens when things become too real?

    Well how to say it, style and grammar are really good, I often can't find errors in a whole chapter and there is a high possibility that it's just a typo. The paragraphs and stuff are pretty good, and if I can't find a fault, then I would say it's way more than 98% of FF here!
    Character - The character are rather bland... or not? Well they are, because they are REALISTIC! Yes, you will not find martial prodigies or intellectual genius or anyone similar: the MC is a pretty average guy, and that's fine by me! He however had enough personality to not bore the shit out of me, and taking in consideration the other characters (even here, no one stands really out because they are REASONABLE people - well or sometimes birds - that will usually behave in a slightly predictable way. It is by no means a negative point: i don't expect while going on in everyday life to have amazingly strange interactions without reasons... and you?
    Story - Simply amazing. I will not say anything since I would spoil it, but even only the story is worth reading the novel, without considering the good style, grammar and the reasonable character.
    Overall: 9.99999/10

    Personally I believe the MC is somewhat underpowered (although logically so), and for god's sake, should think more during fights!!! But I'm hoping this will be solved with his new processor which is very fast. And in all honesty all those points in INT and WIS should at least make him smarter than that in fights. However the MC is at least very rational, which is a very good thing!! Anyways, overall it's an extremely good story, and I really hope it can go on for much much longer!! :)

    Style- love it, flows like water in my mind
    story- very interesting to everybody who like this kind of style and made so well that  you create a different universe with different laws while still having everything make complete sense
    grammar- not my expertise so just said it by felling
    character- also went by felling so it is lower than the story and the style just because of how awesome they really are... it would be to much to ask to make the character give the same felling as the story and style give as that may as well be called personal tastes

    This is a truly unique story, with plenty of realistic action and hidden information just waiting to be revealed at the end. I'm counting off on grammar because of a couple of times that the Author forgot to include things that he should have.

    Let me first say that I love it!
    Then, let me say I'm not a native to the English languish.
    So, good critique!
    I think you found a good original setting for the story. It is a vrmmorpg kind of storyline but you managed to put your own touch in it.
    The style  is in my view quite good and the mc not too op right of the bat.
    Talking of the MC I have too say it is a well balanced one and is not omni in any way (actually have to ask, fails, and some times a thick one) and that makes him more easy to approach.
    I think it may be the harem setting but one of the major down sides of the story is the ladies. They are blocky, without a goal, shallow and quite predictable. A great author once said that every character needs to have a goal, even if it's just a glass of water. This I can't see in the females.
    But the story in it's whole has a great setting, an original plot-line, great magic foundation, and a good goal.
    I see only good things coming!!
    Wish you all the best and can recommend this with a honest mind!

    The story was decently interesting at first but as it got to the third arc, it just kept dragging on and on, boring me so much that I can't bear to read it anymore. I think that if  a rewrite cutting out a lot of stuff that isn't needed,  probably a fourth of the novel, I would revisit it.

    Just another story about a regular guy swarmed by brain dead harem

    Started out as generally interesting and then just kinda evened out and kept going at one pace, then the harem, and from there, you going down a slide.
    Back when I read this I forgot to make a review but still when i look at this novel, I get Weirdly mad from its presence. He did something in here to make me hate this and I dont remember what, i dont care to remember either.
