I hardly come here so I don't know if this has been done to death yet, but what did /lit/ think of Ready Player One?

I thought it was pretty shitty. Flat characters, predictable, zero depth, talked down to the reader, all tell and no show. Also that diversity moral and the literal Deus ex Machina near the end were both retarded.

I doubt you'll find anyone here who really disagrees with that.

It seemed cool at first but then went downhill fast. The worst part is when me basicaly moped for like 2 chapters about art3mis.

Ready Player One is the /lit/ equivalent of Sword Art Online. Even from the perspective of someone who likes reading books for only entertainment purposes sometimes, it's shiiiit.

On a related note, has anybody read this?
Surely it can't be any worse?

I agree with this >>9714523 100%. It's edgy, modern game geek culture stuff. It's substance is considerably lacking when comapred to other pieces in the medium it shares, yet is a fun escape to insert one's self with.

The main reason I bought it when I was younger and more naive was for two reasons: 1) I heard it had Ultraman fighting Mechagodzilla and 2) Where else was I going to read that in a book?

I bought it because it had relevance to my interest, and when I first read the first part of the novel, I knew what kind of book it was going to be. It's not an astounding tale with thought-provoking messages (the author lacks subtly to a dangerus degree) but I find the comparison of this book being an equivalent to Sword Art Online to be perfect.

All in all, it's cliche, but at least I kind of got to see Ultraman fight MechaGodzilla, and that's all that mattered to me. It helps, of course that I got it for, like, two dollars, though.

>/lit/ equivalent of Sword Art Online
Sword Art Online literally is a fucking book. Sword Art Online is the /lit/ equivalent of Sword Art Online.
