I have to ask, did none of the mangakas ever play video games past things like DQ?

Because christ people, there exist no video games that out for like 1 year and your unique monsters/bugs/exploited haven't been found. Heck, give them like a day. At least put some kind of thought into writing.

On the other hand, at least the art is nice.

If this is the new generation of shonen, it's kinda boring. Eh, well, I guess I don't play these sort of games, at least in recent memory.

It can happen, although it isn’t common.

[ul]Batman: Arkham Asylum had a secret Easter egg which involved bombing an innocuous wall three times, which included a tease for the upcoming sequel Arkham City. It went unnoticed until Rocksteady revealed it around when they revealed City.[/ul]
[ul]Goldeneye for the Nintendo 64 has a full ZX Spectrum emulator, which was simply hidden in the game files. Technically it wouldn’t count here, but still.[/ul]
[ul]WaveRace: Blue Storm was released in 2001, and only in 2009 did a player figure out a secret code to change the announcer to a more snarky version.[/ul]
[ul]You know what, just go with this list.[/ul]

Well, I don't know what to think, they said that this would be a great thing and the first chapter does not show much ... it is obvious that the girl is the Knight that appeared in the city, and I imagine that the game is so great and gives so much freedom that people play it to have fun with their friends instead of focusing on the story, but it's really rare that it takes a year and not 1% has been done.

I don't understand why he sells so much in Japan and why they say he will save WSM, I guess I'll follow him closely. As long as it's something like SAO I'll be satisfied.

While this isn't breaking any new ground, it's a solid effort with good art.

I do question the fact that he's gotten multiple weapon drops but seemingly no armor drops yet.

@xyzzy We don't know if the "unique monsters" is a secret/easter egg or not though. Assuming that the snake boss is one of them, it was easily found in front of a bridge near a ravine or something. To me, these "unique monsters" seem more like raid bosses/world bosses found in MMOs like ESO.

Armor = Girl, Main female protagonist
Snake = Gate Keeper to gate content, i.e. you should be lvl 10 (at least) before progressing to the second town
Unique Monster = Main story characters, in the context of an advanced vrmmorpg would be an advanced ai, non mob npc, similar to
toaru ossan no vrmmorpg

That high level heavily armored knight character is most definitely a guy, it's totally not the girl from the store.

This is fucking garbage like Bofuri. Holy shit how can this be new popular manga from WSM. Do Japanese people lost their minds? At least Bofuri had cute girls and yuribait for dumb otaku but this has only an ok art.
