--- Quote from: fallacy on May 29, 2017, 12:43:14 pm ---I hate this fuckinn book. I hate every stupid 5th grade level of writing and storytelling that sounded like a high schooler came up with.

The book was published in 2010 All his references were just things that came out and were popular beforehand.
Example AVGN put out a video on Sword Quest in 2009. He put in about 3 pages going over AVGNs video; Why because it made any sense at all in his fictional world? No because that is what he saw at the time that was video game related so it should go in the book.

I basically got a quarter of the book where he started going over the VR world. WORD FOR WORD he described the starting zone to World of Warcraft (Which was also the most popular game in 2009) I am sure he was playing the game every day while he was writing his shi$t book. I mean he even put in needing to kill Kobolds; Kobolds… that is the only game as far as I know which has that creature and at the starting zone; the guy is too stupid to just say something like weak goblins or something else generic to cover his complete lack of imagination and plagiarism.

Same time he was talking about his WOW world he was talking about everybody needing their own spaceship to travel around and how gas was so expensive that’s why his generic no personality character could never go any ware in the VR World (besides school and his Wow starting zone)… Did you hear what I said this guy actually thinks gasoline is a thing in a computer generated world… Not only is Gasoline not a thing but travel time is not a thing, that is just basic gamming 101, nothing to even do with VR.

I can give a lot more examples, like a lot more seeing on how his whole book is just this kind of shi$t. I should just write a whole piece on why Ready Player One is a pile of garbage and why people that think this is the next Lord of the Rings. The psychology on how things like this happen is way more interesting to me.

Um... Kobolds exist in most fantasy themed games.

Travel time is not a thing? Fuel doesn't exist? Totally depends on the game. Travel time is a thing in EVERY game. Fuel consumption exists in many games.

Not sure who shoved that cactus up your ass... might want to get it looked at.

I just thought it was a fun book to read while I was bored, Im not saying it was some epic fantasy that was on par with lord of the rings. Cmon. If you go into it thinking like that, youre going to be disappointed. But damn Fallacy you need to relax man, try decaf.
