The author does a good job of setting up a classic litrpg world, where you enjoy the protagonist progression. but they fail in the literature department.
The stakes are weak to non existent. He does not like reality and can’t make friends because they all want things from him. But he constantly resists and pushes away from accepting the game is a new reality for him to live in. Almost all sessions are made because of game mechanics. The first time he treats the world like a real place he gets reward with renown. And then all subsequent decisions where he could have treat the game like a real world with real people he instead thinks of getting renown. This is a book of a person playing a game not a book with a person in a game like reality.
