This is the first fic I've recommended to anyone ever in the years I've been on WN. It's that good. The author has found the perfect balance between Canon, VRMMO elements and an original storyline for the MC. This isn't one of those stories where the MC is supposedly not focused on gaining a harem or fucking the female cast into mindless slaves like so many others. Its not the usual world domination, the sith bs or the wannabe jedi bs nor the usual supposedly grey Force user. This guy is just like you and I, a real person, one who uses Jedi as his class but isn't some monk or depraved idiot, this guy is like a regular gamer whose moral spectrum remains that of a regular person, one whose out for profit without it being vulgar, one who has fun without it becoming some random slice of life shtick. I'm seriously fond of the story so far. It makes you feel like you're at the forefront of a true exploration in the VRMMO world at the dawn of full emersion technology, and Disney is right there capitalising on it and pushing it with the Starwars VRMMO that we have all dreamed of as fans. Stats exist, but the game isn't entirely centric on them, nor is the story, they add to your characters capabilities, a bit like expandable perks to be build up upon in call of duty, instead of perks like last stand. Its simply awesome. I go to bed dreaming I'm in this mmo at night, in the guild with this MC. It's just really cool.
So far, everything has been good. There is no problems that I will nitpick on, the time is not quite ripe yet for a review since there has been only 6 chapters so far, but since the author has requested for it, I have shown up, I am not able to give a definite score because of the low amount of chapters to review but I would definitely keep this in my Library as long as it doesn't drop in performance.
A very well written story that draws you in and leaves you wanting more. The character design and world building are top notch, which, alongside the excellent story development make for a extremely entertaining novel. (Fair warning that this novel whilst based in the Star Wars universe is not written canonically.) ♠️💚
This book is in my opinion a masterpiece, the quality for the author, as an amat*ure, is amazing. With the majority of books on this site being either good grammar with a bad plot or bad grammar and a good plot, it is refreshing to see one with both positives. I love the idea he went for and the way in which the author has executed it, it is marvelous, and I wish that my own were of this quality. The update rate is very good and the chapters are long as well, which is always a plus. It is also refreshing to see non-2D side characters.
Why did I get divorced? Well, last week was my birthday. My wife didn't wish me a happy birthday. My parents forgot and so did my kids. I went to work and even my colleagues didn't wish me a happy birthday. As I entered my office, my secretary said, "Happy birthday, boss!" I felt so special. She asked me out for lunch. After lunch, she invited me to her apartment. We went there and she said, "Do you mind if I go into the bedroom for a minute?" "Okay," I said. She came out 5 minutes later with a birthday cake, my wife, my parents, my kids, my friends, & my colleagues all yelling, "SURPRISE!!!" while I was waiting on the sofa... naked.
The concept of the story is really good. Who has not wished for an open world Star Wars story. A good one. But the development does not make sense. It is way too rushed. It is said that the force user class is difficult to get and to master. He gets it by visiting the hangar in Naboo (visiting a movie place). That’s it. Ok, I’m a Star Wars fan, and I want a Jedi main character, let’s pass on that one. Once he joins the Jedi, he learns that he has to master the skills by himself (there are no skills learnt by default in the class Jedi or with. You have to explore and learn by yourself. Love the idea. In a week he is a Jedi Palawan ready for missions. A bit too fast, but still within the acceptable. Not even a month (in game, outside not even a week since it’s a 4 time dilation) and he is a jedi knight, a senator and owns a planet. Instantly a millionaire in real life…really? This story just needed time to develop, but it has been in my opinion developed in such a speed that is not possible in a game. You don’t become powerful and rich in a galaxy wide game in less than a month time in game.
I've never enjoyed a fanfic so much as I have enjoyed this one, the way the history is handled, the implementaion of lore that we don't really see in the movies, the WoW thing caught me by surprise but it was a welcome one (See what I did there? 👀) and the book overall is great, it makes me wish for a VR Game like it so bloody much, the release schedule is a bit weird and leaves much to be desired but I, as a writer understand it cus' I do the same, props to you author!
