for the ask thing!! since you've posted about it again and I enjoy getting second hand knowledge from you about it, how did you get into vgo? :) also you moved recently, right? how is the new place so far!!
VGO MY BELOVED......
Okay literally I got into vgo completely by accident. Since I was working crazy hours at my old job, I was trying to get into audiobooks and downloaded audible and whenever I tried looking for stuff to listen vgo would continue to pop up on my home page. I've never read or listened LitRPG's before so I was pretty hesitant to listen to anything from the genre (still am ngl, its not one that interests me a whole lot, and a lot of the concepts i find cheesey, vgo just had a premise that I found interesting and moderately believable)
I had reached the point where I had ran out of books and wasn't in a position to buy more, and I had been eyeing vgo for a while, and since the first 3 books were free with a membership I decided, sure why not? I figured if anything it would just be decent background noise, but honestly I got. I got pretty hooked after just the first book
Honestly it's not that I found the story compelling all that much but the CHARACTERS!! I adore the whole cast so much and the narrater does such an incredible job to each character a unique voice and breathe life into the story. And, well, by the time I finished book 3, the story itself, while still kinda eh depending on what you look for in books, became a bit more interesting, and I. I couldn't just call it quits after 3 books
And well approximately 2 weeks later I had devoured all 7 books of the main series and all 10 available books of every side series available and there are still 3 books I haven't read yet bc they aren't on audible yet SO
So yeah tl;dr I got into vgo completely on a whim and really didn't expect to actually Get Into It and yet. Here I am. Obsessed with the stupid generic rpg book
And yes I moved recently!! I've been in my new place for about 2 weeks now, and I love it so much!! I bought a king sized bed and a new bedset to go with it and it is HEAVEN to have such a big sleeping area I am living my best life rn!!
