Light of Arad: Forerunner

It’s the largest “alright” I can give to a story. I like the setting the MC is set in, one which I’ve always thought of ever since I saw the “stuck in a game” type stories. Being stuck in an online multiplayer game while other players are still in the game. The execution is so lacking though, the MC is unable to fully interact with said players. It feels like such missed potential, I was already foreseeing an arc where players who entertained the MC’s realistic attitude in game pleading for help to get back to his real world, discovering he’s still in the real world, or something.

I like how the MC feels the need to eat despite never becoming hungry.

Other than those tidbits, the story itself is really basic. “Stop the corruption before it takes over the world”, y’know the gist.
