Do you want to have children in the future?I already do!YupI can't biologically, but I'll look into adoptionHeck noVote ResultSee Old PollsUser Comments [ Order by usefulness ]Unique  by DracoXXX7 months agoRating: 7.0  / 10.0

It's 1 of a kind manhwa where the MC is genuinely evil & not for the sake of revenge.It started off really good cuz of the actions taken by the MC which was quite farfetched from the typical goody 2 shoes protagonists but as the story goes on it starts to falter.Though at times it does have it's moments but unfortunately it's never consistent. I also didn't enjoy the rushed ending, could've been dealt in a better manner but for what it's worth overall it was a fun & enjoyable read

It became shit after chapter 100, he's no longer pure evil and became a comedic villain. He's also not smart or even strong (there's like 100 people stronger than him, and he admit it himself), but he is cunning. There's also 0 romance or harem. It's just not worth it if you're looking for a calculative villain type MC, cause this guy power is literally luck/plot armor

“This does put a smile in my face.” I got a good laugh on how insane mc is.

I’m only two chapters in and it hasn’t grasped my attention so far. The mc’s personality seems very flat from chapter one. We know nothing about him so i’m not really interested to follow his journey. The story didn’t even set up good “let’s sprinkle info about him as the story progresses” characterization. Because from the first chapter, there’s nothing to grasp from the mc. Aside from his name and a few panels of him posing unnecessarily. Issa drop for me dawg.

I read all the way to chapter 85, but no good character development... there are issues with pacing, and the MC isn't as interesting anymore.

He is truly evil.. and ruthless. I'm not really that much of a pure evil fan though, so.. if you like evil villains, you might want to try this, I guess?

I read till 42 chapters.

Every bleeping Manhwa these days is “I’m in an MMORPG!” plus some twist.

This time the twist is “I’m in an MMORPG!” + Death Note.

At time of review, chapter 29 read the MC is lacking in talent compared to the 'top rankers' and thus decides to make up for it by being extremely selfish.

To get stats and even a slight tactical advantage, he's fine with killing. He'll act innocent or even play along. Try to divide and prevent the other players from reaching a peaceful conclusion etc etc.

While this much is true perhaps there were other ways the MC could have had the same outcome but without deaths and relying on pure trickery.

His existence is actually okay-ish inside the world itself. It's not like humans have to cooperate to beat it all. The gods organizing said 'game' have their own goals and thus there is a place for his character in said game world.

An entertaining read as long as you don't overthink it

Was this comment useful?  Yes   No     What is happening  by Jenkai4 years agoRating: N/A

Kind of random and unsatisfying. The main character's motivations aren't clear and the game he's stuck in doesn't seem to have any clear rules. Is he playing to survive? To be the strongest? What's the point

No character development. We don't really get to know who the main is (besides he's always been antisocial, he just had to hide it IRL before the game) There's a side character that has more interesting back story than him

I really like the concept and wish it were fleshed out better. The first chapter got me pretty excited for more, but dropped it
