My Thoughts on I Became a Swordsman in the Cyberpunk Game
Alright, let's dive into "I Became a Swordsman in the Cyberpunk Game." This one's a bit of a mixed bag, and after reading through the initial reactions, I can definitely see why. The premise itself is intriguing: a gamer gets sucked into a cyberpunk world where he decides to buck the trend and remain fully human, relying on swordsmanship in a world of chrome and guns.
First Impressions
My first impression, based on the setup, was cautiously optimistic. The idea of a "what if" scenario within a game world, especially one as visually rich as cyberpunk, has a lot of potential. The protagonist's decision to forgo augmentations and stick to his swordsmanship feels like a fun twist on the genre.
What Works Well
The initial concept is probably the strongest point. The blend of fantasy swordsmanship within a futuristic, sci-fi setting offers a unique appeal. The tags suggest elements like gangs, firearms, and androids, all the staples of the cyberpunk genre, which could provide a lot of opportunities for action and adventure. The presence of a level system is always a draw for readers who enjoy progression mechanics.
Areas of Concern
However, some aspects raise concerns. The fast-forward in time after the initial entry into the game world, skipping over the MC's initial adaptation and development, feels like a missed opportunity. I can see how that might lead to a disconnect, making it harder to invest in the character's journey. It sounds like the world-building and character development might be lagging behind the initial promise, which is always a disappointment.
Final Verdict
"I Became a Swordsman in the Cyberpunk Game" has a compelling core idea, but the execution seems to stumble. While the blend of genres and the "humanity-first" approach are interesting, the potential issues with pacing and character development might make it a tough sell for some readers. If you're a die-hard cyberpunk fan looking for something different, it might be worth a shot, but be prepared for a potentially bumpy ride. Ultimately, whether or not you enjoy this novel will likely depend on how much you value the initial concept versus the actual execution of the story.
