I Became a God in a Horror Game Chapter 237 Discussion

It's a good story and well written. I just feel like based on the reviews I didn't ENJOY it as much as I expected.

Plot: Our MC gets dragged into a horror game due to his excessive desire for money after being layed off. After a tumultuous first round he has to return to the game world at least once a week. Satisfied with rewards, that's no problem for our MC. He meets various people both inside and out the game. Together they complete various instances while also drawing closer to the figures behind the scene.

Characters

Bai Lu - money hungry, pragmatic, risk taker: Our MC. He's an antihero that as the story progresses continues to lean more to good. The narrative reiterates many times Bai Lu has the capacity to be completely evil and apathetic, but due to the current environmental supports from friends and others he restrains himself. We've seen from the parallel worlds that given different circumstances he would be a villain.

Lu Yizhan - intelligent, highly moral, kind: Bai Lu's childhood friend and the main reason he's not evil. Yizhan is like Bai Lu's father in a way. In the orphanage he took good care of BaiLu. He becomes a cop so he can better manage Bai Lu. Forced Bai Lu to go to therapy (although it didn't work, in Bai Lu's defense the therapist was doing a poor job).

Mu Sicheng - perceptive, loyal, college student: BaiLu's first victim comrade. He eventually trusts Bai Lu after some emotional manipulation combined with the pressure of the instance. He begins to genuinely trust Bai Lu and never turns back.

Mu Ke: - smart, obsessed, cry baby: He's initially very dependent on Bai Lu but is forced out of it. He's desperate for Bai Lu's approval and his world kind of revolves around Bai Lu.

Liu Jiayu - intelligent, suspicious, and independent: more or less Bai Lu's adopted daughter. She's also my favorite character. She's an 8 year old blind girl that thrived in the games even before Bai Lu. She's a brocon which causes her to make poor decisions she's eventually left in Bai Lu's care by her brother.

Er Kang (idr his name tbh) - decisive, powerful, traumatized: He gave the most trouble for Bai Lu to recruit like pulling for a 5 star character. He initially hated Bai Lu due to him traveling through time from parallel worlds. Currently still opening up to Bai Lu

Xie Ta/ Tawlin - powerful, accepting, chill: An inhuman creature that just being near him can drive someone insane. Loves Bai Lu and so far he mostly just follows Bai Lu's lead supporting him from behind as much as he is allowed.

Supporting Characters: There is a large cast of characters that is not confusing due to the being slowly introduced.

Pros: intriguing story with well thought out likeable characters. Few plotholes. Emotion provoking,

Cons: Bai Lu does have some plot armor. It slowly becomes a bit boring. I heard the ending is rushed.
