RPGM - SAO [v0.1.5] [ProjectSAO]

The game is fun, but has a few flaws, such as too much grinding and backtracking, long fights, and the speed of moving between locations. With a few tweaks, like increasing combat speed, the game could be good.

I feel like the story has an interesting take on the SAO universe, and that's the only positive thing I can say about this. Too much grind. No point to your hour or two of work other than to progress the story. Once you do, you won't be rewarded for your effort. A bleak playing experience overall. Punishing and not in a way some players may have a kink for. If this were Ren'Py instead of RPGM, I would likely rate it at 2* instead if it just told the story without the grind. I still wouldn't have enjoyed my time playing it.
