Painful and Boring to listen to

Revisado: 06-22-24

This is a hot pile of garbage story and plot... Hours of whining and self interspection. I have bad toothaches that were more pleasant than the aimless droning of the MC. No plot or direction in what happening in the story, just hours of listening of listening to someone's inner monologue.

Absolutely Dangerous recommendations and ideas

Revisado: 06-16-24

This book is written by an unsound cult follower of Dr. Kempner. Someone who took his program as an almost religious scrupture.nd failed to understand what parts were good ideas as what parts were actually outdated and dangerous, if not toxic to our bodies.

Headaches... The Plot holes and forced outcomes are constant.

Revisado: 06-01-24

This is an example of the author trying to elevate their writing prowess artificially by trying to use Hard Science to always defeat every challenge in a word with magic...
Then the author focuses too hard on those same Hard Science rules, that the story, plot, and reader's investment suffers at an exponential rate. Like a party of three level 20ish mates and alchemist characters killing dungeons bosses at level 80, 100, and 120, just because the MC is so smart...
Many poor editing errors riddle the book, such as; repeated chapter quotes, character and skill stats being inconsistent, the simple math of character's Mana not being enough for the volume of spells detailed in the fights. The wrong character's name being used during battles, and ect.

What is the hardest aspect of this story to accept is the idiot Astrophysicist MC, who the author pretty much has everyone worshipping as the smartest man alive... Even to the point that during an Apocalypse, that of the military just accept his ideas and That he starts to believe it and believes he can survive and safe humanity with his superior intelligence... Never mind anyone who can fight or have leadership qualities... Nope, the MC is the smartest man in world after investing in only raising his intelligence stat.
The entire book is irrational and irritating to listen too. Like playing a RPG game with friends and a newbie joins in and starts to argue that their fireball spell can instant kill the dragon because of a technical vague wording in the GM rulebook...

Whiny MC... boring plot... Dumbest choices

Revisado: 01-12-24

"This is too much... This is too much..." You will hear this remark said when the MC stubs his toe to respawning... The consequences to his incredibly stupid decisions will also result him curling in a fetal position and muttering that phrase... It gets tiresome and detracts from the story when you want the MC to simply die so the book ends.

The world plot and game logic is sound and pretty balanced. But the two major characters you have to suffer throughout the book, ruins any enjoyment in the novel concept of a serial killer paradise VR story.

Wholely uninteresting, Potential plot wasted

Revisado: 12-29-23

Clearly a first attempt at writing. The concept.was interesting until the poorly fleshed out and conceived characters were included. Then the plot, story, and obstacles turned pointless and bored me to sleep many times.

The two main characters are entirely unlikeable and have no growth. The challenges and backgrounds story of why they are who they are was poorly used to give us the impression of underdog or characters not root for... Instead their stories were pointless, contrived, and really served to make their plots and story feel forced into unnatural decisions and roles.

The rest of the characters and story is merely background noise to hours of wasted time. Nothing is done or served in the plot or story itself. You can sleep thru half the book and miss nothing. Or better yet, simply skip this book entirely and save your money and time.

So boring

Revisado: 12-11-23

Everything in this audiobook is boring or garbage. MC is less than two dimensional. Narrator choice of character voices is grating to my ear.
The plot has massive plot holes and loose plot devices that make the story too annoying to follow. the Pacing and monotonous narration keeps putting me to sleep.

Excellent Plot & Story. Both Narrators are Great

Revisado: 12-08-23

Expected pretty much smut with a subpar and unrealistic plot/MC
BUT all.the characters are fully fleshed out. The world is intriguing. The story has real conflicts and challenges from the MC. The plot is very rich, with the story flow natural and believable. The story is highly entertaining and the few sex scenes are not forced or over the top.

I am highly surprised and impressed by the Author's work.
Both Narrators truly brought life to the story, characters, and world. Every character's voice and personality is distinct, preventing any confusion on what is going on in the scenes. I would definitely listen to other audiobooks narrated by either person.

Villains Code series gets more boring

Revisado: 10-25-23

I loved the first book... Not a fan of the 2nd. I thought the Big Bad was unoriginal and minor characters from the first book were no longer included. The new "heroes team" was just annoying. Tori was nothing more than an angry self absorbed whiny baby with a mech...

This collection of short stories only deepens the boring and pointless aspects of the VC universe... I hope no more Villain Code books are written. Drew has many better series to continue.

Not his best book. 6 out of 10.

Revisado: 10-21-23

Pretty much a one man story. MC needs no one else. The MC, who is a tower defense video game champion, plays a galactic live action video game against other species that have been playing the game for millions of years. Are being thrashed by the MC who is still learning the games rules.

Felt like the author phones in a half thought out plotline...
