Summary
My life was ordinary, but never boring. That is, until a colossal tower landed smack-dab in the middle of the city.
What should have followed was mass panic and hysteria, but I never got to that part. Why? Simple. I was taken along with 99,999 other people from Earth and dropped onto an unknown world.
Strange beings appeared before us—floating, featureless figures that call themselves demi-gods. They ruled this place, this fantastical world called Gaea. The reason why they took us? Not so simple. We'd supposedly been selected to show that Earth was worth saving from an upcoming cataclysmic event. So, no pressure there.
Gaea is a world entirely controlled by the System, a sarcastic and level-hungry intelligence that granted everyone magical powers, strange classes based on personality or luck, monsters to fight and even loot. It forces us to compete in "events", but no one can really tell us what the endgame is. Climbing the tower and finding out exactly what Gaea is, who created it, and why, could bring us closer to the truth behind our abduction and the fate of our world.
My name is Devin Cain. Join me as I wield Muramasa, a cursed katana that hungers for blood and souls, and a class created to curse players and monsters to death. What can go wrong?

white Knight syndrome
the story started out decently but his personality to kill or not to kill constantly flip flops and him saying killing is never the right thing to do then does so with out hesitating but then won't loot the Pearson he's killed like that's some how worse than the killing its self just grates against me

Fun story, but an inexperienced piece
The story has lots of fun elements, with interesting world building, mechanics and environments, but the main character is clearly an author insert, with the MC being a weabu (a kind of Japanaphile), IT nerd with a “cuddle friend” who struggles with a deep rage that he thought he’d left behind.
Very minor spoiler from the first couple of chapters: he then meets another weabu, who’s hot and maybe into him.
While the “weabu for whom everybody clapped” aspect can range from overly self indulgent to cringey, it’s not the worst example in the genre. What is unfortunate is that the dialogue feels too artificial. I just don’t feel like these are conversations between human beings.
There are numerous instances where characters just go along with things for no other reason than the plot needs it to.
Not to mention the places where characters don’t seem to be concerned with their own mental anguish, and are instead super concerned and understanding of the MC’s mental state.
With all that said, I’m an armchair reviewer who couldn’t write a book as good as this one, and at the end of the day, it was enjoyable enough that if there’s a sequel and it comes with my audible membership, I’ll give that a go too.

Can't finish this one
I'm getting so fed up with this book, the MC is wishy-washy and just makes me feel like what few brain cells I have are slipping away the more I listen to this book of silliness
