Review of 'The Land : Founding' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

I understand litRPG holds a lot of appeal to some readers but this was just too much for me. This wasn't just a real world character entering into a fantasy world, it was a gamer entering the video game he was already playing. People have stats and talk about them numerically. Prompts appear and dings signal leveling up. If it weren't for the half-ass introduction I'd say this book is equivalent to watching someone play a game on YouTube.

There's some wish fulfillment in this genre, but this book went way too far. There are whole passages detailing character stats of "NPCs", advancement, and item identification. It's ridiculous.
