À propos de cet audio
Trapped in a dungeon. There's only one way out. Kill or be killed....
An AI calling itself Schema has assimilated Earth into its System. As a consequence, everyone gained access to status screens, power-ups, and skills. This AI turned these concepts from fiction to fact. It's easy to become intoxicated with leveling up and becoming stronger. To some, it's too good to be true, like living out a dream.
For Daniel, however, it's closer to a nightmare.
He's in a bit of a predicament. Cracks in our dimensional fabric have unleashed terrifying beasts from dark, abyssal places. Schema organizes these cracks into dungeons, giving the native species of the planet a chance to fight back.
Daniel finds himself stuck in one of these dungeons. It's time to break free, by any means necessary.
Experience the start of an action-packed LitRPG apocalypse series with nearly 15 million views on Royal Road.

The start of the book(first ~4 hrs) really doesn't help promote it though since the MC did act really stupid and made some decisions I thought didn't make sense beyond plot advancement. However, it seemed like this was because it was setting him up to be the meat-head boxer(not my favorite archetype but whatever) as he stumbles about and seems to get plot lucky.
This is for a reason and is foreshadowed enough that it doesn't feel like the author's cope out of writing themselves into a corner but a planned setting. Made VERY apparent after MC defeats the first real BBEG.
The following scene after his win then sets the tone for rest of the story. With it placing more emphasis on interpersonal relations, self-control, self-identity, and what it's like to be the book cover being judged at first glance. It dives deep into the characters' emotions and their development and, just like the book itself, shows that monsters should be given a chance too.
Also, I absolutely LOVE the rune magic system. Really cool idea.

I think there are some elements of this genre that are just innately challenging to modify into an audiobook.. in particular reading out all the stats every time there is a change. I imagine in the print version it is a graphic visual.. doesn't translate quite as well into audio. also when they "message" each other in the book the poor narrator has to spout out a bunch of identifier info... painful.
My favorite part had to be the world (universe?) building which drops hints and clues but keeps a good amount of mystery.. the antagonists are intimidating for the protagonist and are unique in their own rights.. not just generic bad guys (marvel should take notes).
Lastly a few minor points:
- Althea is repeatedly described as a sniper.. why the heck is there such a focus on her being abnormally strong and pouring points into strength?
- characters didn't seem at all shocked that they were suddenly just dropped into a video game essentially.. just started playing and opening menus.. I feel like there would be major psychological trauma that isn't really referenced.
- More of the Overseers! Badass..
- There should be a 'threat' to Schema.. not just inaction. similar to The Matrix where the machines were scared of Smith..
overall I hope there are more!
a bit strange to get into.. but world gets interesting
