RPG

 

 

Well gintama was also a manga with no goal at first except for laughs but look at it now, more than hundreds of chapters made.

 

There is this mystery in the story, why are both isley and raquia looked like they are hacked?, what happened to the 3rd member?, why can raquia manage to pay 3 days worth of virtual reality rental?, what is Appetizer's story?, is tainan really skilled? is katana a legendary blacksmith?

 

The story doesn't have to have a specific goal except to know the mysteries and character improvements, this manga is that type of story.

 

There was always a goal in Gintama. It just chose not to follow it. The story even lampoons this in the first few volumes.

But this drama had a point. To make Isleys and Raquia relations even funnier, especially when they will team up and decide to do next sesion of RP. That will be hilarious to see how other will interprate it.

 

 

 

Or how could he menage to pay it in his middle schoolers day's? I mean he was ther like alwyas. Three day in row fight. Week siege of a castle, and that's anly the stuff we know about.

 

View Auto Seved Content Dear good guys that made it are genius!!!

actually if you look up the cost for a pc room rental its about a dollar per hour, if you add a dollar extra for vrmmo it's still cheap, so a middle schooler should be able to afford this since an in game day seems less than 24 hours

'Now loading, please wait.

... 99%

... 100%!

Welcome to the world of Waiting!'

(what the beginning of chapter 25 looks like to Spanish speakers, roughly [and altered to make it funnier])

You guys don't seem to get it.
Comedy without a goal is fine.

Drama without a goal, is author-inserted angst and lack of ideas.
Think about what "Drama for no reason" means. It does not has the same reception for "Comedy for no reason".

Because a flying kick is too mainstream, how about a flying knee attack to the face instead.

...Because the "story" has no goal, and its based on senseless angst.
That was the point of the manwha when it started -- it had no goal. It was just random lol bullshit fun shit-for-giggles.
But now, it feels like the manwha will draw away from the comedy, in order to focus on the drama.

The horribly written drama.
RPG was fun at first, but now it feels like it lost its focus.
Time will tell.

Why story has to have a goal? That's not 'Lord of the Rings' (and thank God for that).

For me a story to be passable (latetly I really had dropped my requirements) has to be at least partiary logical (and few other stuff but right now it's unimportant) and all the stuff that happend so far can be axplained (again it's just my point of wiew) in some not completly unrealistic and higly improbable way.

My point I had the same doubt's as you but my trust in autor revived 5 ch. ago 'Departure Again' and with each passing ch. it's getting stronger. I'm aware that at this point story can go either way but while reading early RPG chapters I had this feeling that author knows what he is doing (and hopefully it isn't shit).

Spoiler

 

 

I had exactly the  same doubts (and some more) and Hero arc was a big let down but next chapters made me trust in the autor once again. As I see it transforming Isley's bad mojo has alredy begun but it can be only my wishfull thinking. I alredy dropped to many promising series because of such things (Gamer, Dice, ToG) and Am hoping that at least here author won't go that way.

 

But why not?

RPG was fun at first, but now it feels like it lost its focus.
Time will tell.

There is less than 10 manga/manhwa's that I enjoyed from begining to the end and mostly these things aren't well known. I mean how many of you have heard about "Save the world in 80 days"? For me it was an example how (in general) "drawings with text bubbles" shouldbe about and it has nearly the same amout of viwers as RPG with (for me) isn't even close to it in any aspect, even in comedy. Most of the jokes here aren't really funny. In fact I'm here for the story. And yes I know how that sounds: reading a Comedy for a story.

But why not?

So, basically -- this manwha now has both comedy and drama.
Soap-opera grade drama.

Sigh.
Whenever senseless angst and drama appears, is when you know the author ran out of ideas, and started complicating the story just for the sake of pushing it a few more chapters forward. One can say it was planned like such from the beginning, which makes it even worse.
Can't this thing...Just be funny? What's with the author-inserted drama here? The whole "Hero" arc was painful to read, I didn't came here for cliche drama.

I hope the author will actually utilize Raquia's mentality in his writing: "Wat? Is just a game, ye guys. Srsly, why so serious? lololol".
If the author will somehow transform the the bad-mojo Isley gives out for comedy....A prize. A very big prize will fall on his arse, because that'd be impressive.
Pointless-drama-cliches in stories, is just like Anal in Pornography.

Once you start doing it, you don't stop until you dig out all the shit you can find.
If he can reverse this thing, I'd be damned impressed. But just like Raquia, I ain't expecting much.

I have a feeling Raiquia and Isley will team up against a greater evil, possibly the next generation of middle schoolers.

 Do mages tend to have Slow Fall in Korean MMOs?

 

WTF, we were having a nice fight and now you're suddenly creeping me out. Cut it out. Don't post hungry.

Duh, new type of trolling. Try to keep up, m'kay? *creepcreepcreep*

And I mean yeah sure if you insist I'll go eat a whole tub of peanut butter with ice cream right now sure yep yum. <3

AND GOSH DARN IT IT IS A SUBSCRIPTION

Gosh darn try hard Korean gamers. . . > .>;;;;;;;

BTW: that "shit for me" quest would be glorious in true game...

Ever been to Grizzly Hills?

The fun thing is how Isley keep on like nothing really happened and Raiquia will also do the same. If nothing raiquia may even go with Isley's plan just for the lulz.... BTW: that "shit for me" quest would be glorious in true game...

After reading ch. 25 pls tell me I wasn't right about this continent beiing a crap trap content that was supposed to buy game dev time.

And new Idea for Isley. He is actually sic, like really sic, bedriden all the time, no friend no fun and his only joyin life is througt Esteria. And he is a PC player. Or he has 60 years and is in jail but with acces to Internet.

God bless http://autosummarizer.com

 I'm at a lost for word. 

(or not)That's so perfect why I didn't know something like that exist? You are my Hero

For me its one of few series with world that actually make sense.
Cuz he was a little brat and liked the idea of beiing this one misunderstanded by world, with no reall friend dear God how many times have I seen it in manga/anime main heros and it never made sense.
Sorry guys i was 14 years old and was just roleplaying .
Like seriously just imagine what have to be addet to PC MMO in world creation.

Like always sorry for typos.
And If someone actually read it whole. WOW!

Appetizer is so adorable when she wants to go questing.

Spoiler

Why you guys are saying this story has plot holes? For me it's one of few series with world that actually make sense.

I lost my trust in author during Hero episodes (In Hero(6) I decided to wait 10 more ch. and drop this series) but next one seved it .

Spoiler

Why Raquia played along with Isley's shame? Cuz he was a  little brat and liked the idea of beiing "this one misunderstanded by world, with no reall friend" dear God how many times have I seen it in manga/anime main heros and it never made sense. Here? Sorry guys i was 14 years old and was just roleplaying . Poor Nibelungen I think she was the only one that was serious in this trio

, seriously she deserved better. (or maybe not? I have trust in you Gaechaban!).

 

Spoiler

Game having no updates in 2 years?

I can see wher it comes from:

Making a VR MMO is hard. Like seriously just imagine what have to be addet to PC MMO in world creation. It's creazy. And to ee more precise it's not "no update in 2 years" it's no mayor update at all since launching the game, This villan hero play take place in beta if I remember correctly.

 

Spoiler

New (floating) continent having a dungeon  that is a rip off from alredy existing one and items that even 10th tier blacksmith can't use.

As I said making a VR world is hella hard. Why do you think most VR manhwas feature some sort of AI? To much content for normal people to take care of (and they need some sort of deus ex machina to "fall in love" with main character and help him in his journey as an explanation to why some "comletly normall guy that reader !can relate to!" rocs the game, with at least one year handicap at that) <= sorry for that. So Game dev here made game, spend years on creating the world, made wordwide net of these capsule houses(not sure about it) where players can play and then they just wanted to sit back and hog all the honey.

Spoiler

AND THEN DURING THE BETA SOME ASSHOPER BEAT THE WHOLE GAME!!!! TWICE!!!

What could they do? As I see it they

Spoiler

made "Black" Tiger )bout him later( and Nibelungen tear as keys to new content and told players: "Yea there is more to this game. You just have to unlock it. Make a flaying ship and go conquer new continet. Muahahahahaha!." *whishper* "Sir you forgot to turn off the mic!" (Merrymerry father?). But here is problem. They wherent ready for it and had no way of making it in time. So what did they do? @Evil grin@ they took scraps from alredy exsisting content and put it togeder abd just made it harder (similiar like in some games you fight the same enemies again and again and they only change stats and colors), they even went furter and made it imposible to solo them (lerned after Black Tiger incident). I bet Isleys spell is just a copy of alredy existing one but with much higer dmg.

For me this new continet is a trap that was supposed to buy them enought time for creating, this time for reall, next update. Why they couldnt made it so dungeons has a min. numbers of participant? feedom in a game is latly a new trend so  game dev can make invisible wall but can made a mountain that is imposible to fly over (given max fly time in game with proper equip), or infinite sea, or boss that needs one player sit in certain place from where he cant fight and another one to fight the boss.

 

Spoiler

Why was Balck Tiger pink.

That was even mention in story. It was a Boss made to be undefetable. Immunite to magic and all that. Aperently

Looks like game dev has some sort of policy that players can't hit a wall. Never. No matter what.

Spoiler

 And since the only team that could possibly kill it consiste of 2 mages thay give him magic immunity, and limmits of teams fighting him. At least they didn't make him apper only once a day for on hour in 3 a.m.. Pink.

My guesses: A joke; A mistake and game dev simply had no way of correcting ot and saving their faces at the same time;

Spoiler

Game dev just take a companion that was supposed to be addet in next update (ther wasn't any mayor ones but Raqia mentioned that the game had some polishing done while he was out, and companions fall into this cadegory) give him OP stats and made him slaughter players.

They should addet him an aura of death that makes holy magic useless in his vicinty so players has to use potions instad and

Spoiler

Raqiua wouldn't be able to solo him,

but well humans are creatures made from mistakes after all.

 

Spoiler

Next update closed for 2 years cuz the only player that could open this conntend trowed a fit hissy fit?

Game dev just got lucky this time and had time to polisch next new content, correct some in game mistakes and take well deserved break

 

Game dev comments on 

Spoiler

forced resurections and blocked contend

?

Just plain troling. Considering characters we saw so far I think I can be right on this one.

 

Why players didn't quit the game?

I don't know how you guys but form me getting to max lv. just to have to do it again in half a year is not the most important part of MMO. It's about having fun (maybe even FUN for some of use), doing all these in game and personall achievement and when you think about how many things you can do in normal 3D MMO it's just mind blowing to think about VR MMO posibilities. Cusine trips all around the IN-game world to taste new flavors? testing how long can you sit in magma? Fighting wth oure animal instikts by jumping of the kilfs again and again(or testing beffor reall suicide what will kill you for sure with the least amount of pain). Games aren't neeseeary about new contents. It's about fun (or FUN) and It looks like Game dev succesed in making this game fun (don't look like FUN to me, maybe this

Spoiler

tier drop

. Hmm, dunno)

Actually some did but the game still live. I can think about some games that where left alone for months and there still where players.

 

Spoiler

Isley and Raquia

friendship.

As I see it. They actually are great budies. Apperently you guys don't remember how hard it was to find someone to play 

Spoiler

hero and a villain with you (especially villain) and play it like that. seriously considering that Raqiua was just a child (and I quess Isley is actually jounger than him) this sesion was preety neet. Sesion of Role-play. After all this is manhwa about VRMMOR(ole)P(lay)G. Poor Nibelungen.

Just a digresion. I belive Blaksmith san is just troling them with his 

Spoiler

typing

 

Spoiler

Isley and Raquia found in the same place with no equip.

My first touht was that Game Dev decidet to by themself few more days when they will fainally decide to go back and stole their equip but now I suspect Nibelungen:

She can't just be just cute innocent girl with big breast and even bigger sword. Not in story like that with characters we have seen so far. Thers got to be something unusuall to her like hacking other players as revenge. Wonder what happend to this Netkama guy/girl?

Black dragon lair. If she was going to dump them somewer it's the best playce to do so. We still don't know what happend ther but it had to something major for Game dev's to name the most important item in game "Nibelungen's Tears".

Tears of joy, regret, or despair? That's the question.

 

 

Things I love in this webtoon so far:

Word It really makes sense;

Game dev didn't turned their backs on PC gamers. In other series it looks like PC never exsisted;

Taian question in ch. 22 It's a question right from deeps of my soul. Well played Gaechaban, well played;

 

Things that worry me:

Spoiler

Isley just stealing equip from a player. What thef tier is he? Or can just any player take away equip from another? Seeing how Tain tries to take away Tear from Raqiua seems to prove it but there wasn't mentioned any problems with players PK each other and stealling stuff so far so what people just play this game nicly and don't do shit to each other. No why that's a multiplayer after all. I fope Autor will explain this.

Like always sorry for typos.

And If someone actually read it whole. WOW!

YOU sir have just been elevated from jerk to gem! <3

 

Does that make me shallow?* The degree to which that article tickled my heart. . . many thanks! X,D

 

*Well, while everyone has a certain degree of shallowness in their bones, I'm actually going to lean on the side of "showing me that awesome article is not why you are suddenly a very cool person in my book." More so, because of your generous attitude in this response of yours, where I had come back just now to possibly apologize to you, not sure if my attitude had been too forceful and feeling that I'd been a bit spiteful and mean spirited in saying the things I did. You sir were quite gracious just now, and I'm seeing you in a different light.

 

That article was just the whipped cream on top of the caramel brownie sunday, albieght the best gosh darn whipped cream I've had in awhile. I'm going to stop talking about food before I actually go and eat something this late at night. :/

 

WTF, we were having a nice fight and now you're suddenly creeping me out. Cut it out. Don't post hungry.

I'm basically doing the same thing:D My arguing for fun voice has jerk in it, I guess I watched too much ZP and Jimquisition. Or I'm just a jerk XD

Have you ever read http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=17692? I mostly agree with the author of that, so you can see where I'm coming from with my complaints, and I think you'd find it interesting since you argue about comics for fun It's a two part post, so click next if you like it.
