Honest opinion? While I do like video game novels as I adore all fantasy based novels ,video games have been on the back burner due to how few of them turn out great but this is an exception. just the prologue alone is awesome.Venusean has always been an amazing author with awesome ideas but his one weakness was lack of experience causing his books to lack a certain humanity and causing them to be less than what they could have been but now it has improved. in just the first eight chapters I have seen him showing that he has begun overcoming this weakness and has written a wonderful video game based novel with foreshadowing, humanoid reactions even from Npcs a rare thing in any novel of such a genre even if they are said by lesser novels to be sentient. these ones truly feel as though they're alive just like with other characters specifically the players who he has demonstrated to have their own lives, rich and poor, their own personalities, independent and prideful, psychopathic and broken, kind but with sadness inside etc.I can truly say I can FEEL life in this one like the people are truly person who like what they do but also have their own problems, their own demons, their own pain and their own joys.the world building is moderately paced but unfolds like a divine flowers. as I read it while playing (eurielle - spacemen) I couldn't hold my self back from screaming out in joy.THIS is what I want to see more of. to be honest I believe this might be the point where I surpass a mere fanatic.This great old one known as 《redacted》 leaves you with one simple lesson. Read it. Read it then love it then kneel for you can never love it more than me. also if you ignore my warning I may or may not corrupt you in order to force you to do that but that has merely merely 1000% per cent chance of happening so......Read or die!
