Summary
2044. The world of games changed long ago. "Ascension" has become one of the most popular VRMMO games. It is a huge world divided into a hundred Floors, with each Floor a boundless location with its own countries, tribes, and millions of players.
The object of the game is to unlock all the gates and conquer the top.
Having joined the game, Will Thomson doesn't realize that he is all by himself. Then he accepts the first quest....
Cursed Rat: level 46....

not sure if the author got better as it went on to but little works that got me at first didn't occur towards the end of the book.
slow start but got going

Translation on the whole was good. Maybe could have done with a final pass by a native English speaker to make some of the phrasing a little more natural (especially when cursing).
As for the story again it's OK. Not great, not terrible maybe a little below average. The main character is unlikeable, driven by greed and a bit of a dick. The world the author created (both real and virtual) has promise but lacks a backstory to help tie everything together. We're left knowing virtually zero about the real world and very little about the virtual one as well.
I might try the next book to see if it improves but overall this was a little bit of a chore to finish so I'm not driven to find out what happens next.
Average story about greed

Disjointed story, unrealistic (game-wise) level progression, impossible victories in combat with improbable monsters.
No. Sorry. I quit.
