Let me preface this by saying that this in my opinion above the level of junkfood, but not at sushi level and definitely not at wagyu beef level (for now). I really don't think that this is special in some way as it is the tried and true time travel and video game story. I find the MC to be pretty enjoyable as he hasn't been a complete ass hole from the start even though he seeks revenge in a certain sense. He thinks with long term benefits and he isn't ridiculously OP from the start. Characters are very lackluster though. The side character roommates rarely show up and they are typical to say the least. NPC characters which I would hope have more personality seem more like NPCs which isn't bad, but it kinda sucks. I think my biggest problem is this question: Why not make the genre a wuxia or xianxia mix instead of making it a video game one? To me, it seems as if replacing the scenes with IRL with more in game stuff would be just fine as IRL doesn't seem to matter much anyways.
