52. - strangely good, yet boring and bad ? How so? It’s well built, there’s good character balance and dynamic But the universe is just boring … and well disturbing too It’s another story where virtual reality has become dominant ( as the ai mentioned, that’s already strange and never discussed, despite how unhealthy it should be Without entering a polemic The biggest part of the story consists of fights to death in the virtual world, these are called games ; and the story revolves around a school which teaches teenagers how to be the best at killing games This is plain boring It’s also strongly disturbing : how brain has evolved for millenias to adapt to the world, there’s no way it has a second circuit to separate virtual from real when both send as much information It’s already debated with our mere 2D games : does tv and games influence our perception of violence ?, there are some strong evidence pointing toward a yes Now if you can be lured to spend much time in a killing game that feels next to real, there is no question that it would have a strong impact on your entire system - Maybe it’s not so strange tha bunnch of people easily became ok with terrorist actions, killing people for real doesn’t make much difference when you are trained to doit repeatedly ? How to you expect teenagers to still mzke thr difference between real and fake ? Most of their experiences showed killing brings victory qt no cost , their opponents don’t actually die Even if you want to bring out moral concepts such as rights and wrong, you need to bring forward a strong sense of « this is real this time « But how could that work? The brain built habits as a survival mechanism, this mechanism as been intentionally trained to make them win Now theire is one good killing and a bad one For us who play regular video gameor watch movies, there is an obvious distinction,, so it might not make much sense, nonetheless, even regular video games can become part of a training to desensitize soldiers : killing other humans is not in our nature While playing is In a world in which even food tastes and smells the same, can repeatedly killing leaves no problem in the social perceptions of the population ? In the player’s mind ? It should not be so easy to think of killing someone, just because they bothered you or because you feel inferior ( the bully)
c52 - basically League of Legends inspired virtual world, even a character Faker exists in this world as a legendary player lmao. MC is unexpectedly funny and although he is pretty OP, he still has to make an effort because his OP skill still has a negative effect since he still hasn't mastered it. this is pretty exciting to read!
Nice art, decent plot but no, this isn't the game world and the real world merging fantasy. It's just plain e-sports. Dissapointed. Others may like it but I don't I couldn't stand it till Chap 5 so I'm dropping.
52 Not bad. The art quality is good and the plot is simple but effective. the country is divided into cities, A, B, C, D, F and Z, ranging from the richest to the poorest. A professor from the most popular VR game's Academy challenges the norms by recruiting talented people from cities D, F and Z. The MC is from city D and only after he enters the Academy will he be faced with prejudice and snobbish hierarchy. But talented people can never be overshadowed...
