Please Follow the Rules of the Game Chapter 39 Discussion

  • #1
Let me sing some praises for the 39 chapters I've read.

Interesting world building that actually connects the MC's original world and the game in a meaningful way, there's an ongoing mystery that gets supplied every now and then.

The characters are quite nice, even cannon fodder and mini-side-characters are flashed out enough, they have a good dynamic with each other and distinct characteristics.

Games so far lean more towards action than puzzle, the aspects that have to be figured out aren't really for the readers to guess, lots of information just isn't shown but solely thought of by the characters. It's not thriller/crime but action.

There's some face slapping typical for OP survival game MC's: "weak newcomer lol" - "wow, so strong".

I'm VERY glad the writer is obviously aware of how overused that is and always ends it quickly, often in the same or at least next 1-3 chapters. I just don't have the patience for this low-quality drag anymore.

Some players actually notice that his behaviour and reactions aren't normal for a newcomer and are wary of him right away. Very nice, very realistic touch I haven't seen often.

MC is mostly OP, there are some instances in which he has to rely on others but they are rare.

He's well-rounded and has a characters that fits his background.

If he can realistically safe an innocent player, he will do so.

But if a player hurts other people, MC not only does nothing for them, he directly kills that person.

He cares for humans, tries to be very nice, but in contrast to most novels of this kind, he's a true survivor of the last days instead of a goody-two-shoes who makes you wonder how he managed to live through an apocalypse.

And he's a little bit crazy, which is fitting as well.

ML is a violent lunatic towards all living things, he's charming, frightening, blood-thirsty, and very OP.

In short, he's pretty insane and matches well with MC, they both have a somewhat warped perception and character and seem to be evenly matched in terms of strength.

They respect each other, work together, and have a nice chemistry.

So far there have been some homoerot*c moments and neither of them acted like a 14 years old kid, no blushing or other bulls not befitting of adult characters.

I have expectations for the rest of this novel, right now I can only recommend it to those who like action, horror, some gore, and a truly strong MC.
