I have really enjoyed Awaken Online so far and plan to continue for now. The one dark spot is the Axholion story line, which I find tedious and cliche. Yet another overdone story about an entitled teenage bully? This made a good springboard in book 1, but the character should have been left in the dust by now. Much more about him is likely to spoil my overall enjoyment of an otherwise fresh approach to the LITRPG genre.
