My Thoughts on The Golden Experience Point
"The Golden Experience Point" has been quite the rollercoaster ride for me. With a premise that initially grabbed my attention, I dove in hoping for a unique blend of action, adventure, and VRMMORPG elements. However, the experience proved to be a mixed bag, leaving me with some lingering questions and a slightly disappointed feeling.
First Impressions
The prologue definitely hooked me. It promised a compelling narrative with a strong female lead navigating a complex world. The initial setup hinted at something grander, perhaps even a transmigration story disguised as a VR game. But as the story progressed, it shifted into a more standard VRMMORPG trope, which, while not inherently bad, felt like a bit of a bait-and-switch.
What Works Well
Despite some of my reservations, there are aspects of "The Golden Experience Point" that I found enjoyable. The initial concept of a demon lord protagonist is intriguing, and the potential for strategic gameplay and army management is definitely present. I particularly liked the idea of a cautious and clever protagonist, which, when executed well, can lead to some satisfying moments of outsmarting opponents.
Areas of Concern
Unfortunately, the execution fell short in several key areas. The world-building felt inconsistent, especially regarding the VRMMORPG mechanics. The skill system, in particular, seemed poorly designed, with plot holes large enough to drive a truck through. The protagonist's ability to stumble upon hidden skill paths, supposedly undiscovered by beta testers and seasoned players, strained my suspension of disbelief. I also struggled with the protagonist's actions at times, particularly a certain scene involving sunlight, which felt out of character and poorly motivated. The lack of a traditional level system, while not inherently a flaw, contributed to the feeling that the game mechanics weren't fully thought out. I felt like the story had the potential to be great but was let down by the game design.
Final Verdict
"The Golden Experience Point" has potential, but it is not currently realized. While the initial premise and some aspects of the protagonist are intriguing, the weak world-building, plot holes, and questionable game mechanics ultimately detract from the overall experience. I'd recommend approaching this novel with caution and tempered expectations.
