Reviews for The Name of the Game
Reader chapter 33 . 7/1/2021
Wow, that was a trip! Some enemies were weaker and stupider and the power balance were somewhat more skewed than I expected but this fanfic were still good! Too bad the fanfic stopped, though I think it's because the chapter size were growing too big. Around 10k each chapter should already be long enough.

Defensive-only Gamer's Mind that will leave completely vulnerable to your emotional and hormonal mood-swings? Oookaayyy... Only if you wouldn't be seen by dangerous characters that have seen your calmness as a part of your persona. And that you wouldn't see any other dangerous characters that can easily read and evaluate micro expressions that many Hunters and Huntresses would surely be capable of. So honestly, that feature is clearly a nerf, a weakness, if used outside of selective interactions with his most trusted allies.

Usually, one can easily Load Save to undo all (or at least most) of the f*cked ups that happened in Atlas. That's the lifeline feature there. Memory loss after Loading? Complete memory loss would make Load obsolete because the Gamer would just keep Reloading due to repeat actions. And any other penalties should still be much better than letting the world (Atlas, Ozpin, Cinder, AND Salem) know about Shiro:
* He can somehow sneak the whole ship into a high security level site and was just found out after the ship had built up speed flying away from the site.
* Duplicating and upgrading Penny, showing that he had previously gotten Penny's blueprints and can actually built one. And using the exact same design as the original would be interpreted as his marketing. In the future, people would easily blame him when bad things related to technology happens, and every bad guys like Cinder will seek to exploit it now that they know he can do it.
* Control the Grimms. Ozpin and his inner circle would connect that with Salem, while Salem would become VERY interested which will lead to disaster this early in the game.
* Sanguine might not be captured in camera but people has definitely known about spirits and can analyze the fight, showing clearly that Shiro was helped by at least one spirit. Combining the spirit's attack patterns and effects with the attacks to the Jackals? Voila, an extra criminal record.
* His best fighting style was exposed, using Jaune's, Shiro's, and White Fox's. No matter how he will try to hide it, people can easily analyze Jaune's fighting style and see that they used the same style even if only bits of it. If Ruby with her lower INT and WIS could quickly deduce his identity, why don't Ozpin, Cinder, and Salem?
* And Candice. Digital traces. Impossible to completely erase.

Basically, he should have Loaded. It's better if you had actually never included the feature in the first place if you don't use it.

Guest chapter 6 . 6/5/2021
From what I've read so far this has been much better than than other gamer fics I've read but Im just not feeling it with him having an eventual harem and sharing the gamer stuff but still leagues better than most fics I look for.

Autistic ass story
Luciendar chapter 15 . 5/19/2021
Great story. The only depiction of Jaune over even come close to enjoying. This story just wasn't for me. It wasn't what I was looking for, ya know? Too much sex, not enough action. Plus, I wanted more infection with the main cast, especially my fave girl Pyrrha.

Other than that, my only real issue was the reality behind the story. He'd never know if any of the girls truly loved him or it was just his ability. Even Joan didn't truly know him and lived her brother. I doubt she'd have handled the truth well. The other girls were all drawn by his power. It's lungs funny that Cinder was the only person to figure it out and control herself.

Psychologically it all sounds like he's this really sad and lonely guy.

I'll applaud your world building though. You did a phenomenal job of explaining shit. It just didn't do it for me.

Yeah tell everybody that you have powers that makes you a traget, real pro move, why not writing it on your forehead.

This has been a long three days of reading the story. An absolute wonderful journey. I've massively enjoyed the story, the characterization and of course the smut haha. There's a few instances where I felt the info dumps were a bit too many but quite like that the chapter wasn't a narration of a gaming character but an actual story with gaming elements.

Keep up the good stuff!

I didn't like this chapter for one simple thing Nothing changed form cannon like Jaune's interference here doesn't make any difference with Cinder still getting half of Maiden powers it played exactly like cannon with just Jaune in it
Daisy chapter 5 . 4/24/2021
Sigh.. it's a decent looking fic but the MC is just a special type of retard.
He even has metaknowledge and still dares to show magic off and go to beacon.
IcySneasel chapter 33 . 4/23/2021
i found this story this week and it's all I've read the past week. it's an awesome world building fic that's sadly been left behind. I hope you come back and continue it because 33 chapters 700k words and we finally just get to season 1 i so want more posted.
