From Today, I’m a Player오늘부터 플레이어

Currently read all available chaps (41). It's fine.

MC lives in a time where Hunters are superior beings who treat regular Humans as nothing. There are 12 main ones who call themselves Gods. He has in his possession a book which tells the story of a "Demon King" - a hunter who had the power of a "Player" and who could level up by killing monsters, whereas everyone else has to rely on the power of their Sponsor to increase in strength. Some stuff happens and he gets sent back in time 100 years, way before he was born, and gets the power of a "Player".

There is very little exploration or use of the Player power at all. We are told his stats and level at times, but no clue on what he gets by Levelling up nor why/if he chooses to allocate the stats a certain way. He starts off at D grade, then we get a few time skips over a couple chapters where we are just told he is clearing Gates and then he is B grade. As of now he still has no skills - active or passive, just 1 Authority he can use.

Because of the lack of explanation of the Player power, some stuff that happens don't really make sense and it's not clear whether that is due to Player or not. Like we are shown at the start he is working in a shop and later are told he was studying to be a Civil Servant. He wasn't a Hunter, thus he should have no combat experience at all. Yet as soon as he chooses his weapon, which his Sponsor approves of, he seems to be able to handle it really well. We are told there are passive skills that can improve his weapon output, but he doesn't have any skills. So is this part of the Player power? No clue.

It contains similarities to other Korean webnovels, like Kill the Hero and Solo Levelling. There's a plan to make fake, evil, people as popular Heroes and there are lots of big secret organisations full of "Heroes" who are actually all f#cked up/evil. The MC has a necromancy-like power/equipment etc.

Overall it is just fine. Now i'm caught up i'm not sure if I'll continue on beyond this. The Player power is never explained or explored much at all, just in passing. And the vast majority of his training/grinding is just skipped over too.

I droped pretty fast so im not rating the novel and you can take my critique with a grain of salt, now lets get to it, Lee Jun-Kyeong is a typical young men with no personality so you can insert your own and with no prospects of the future so he choses to live in the past via .
As the trailer says "From today, I’m a Player" which means that from that day with the bare minimum effort and planing he can do everything better than everyone.

Its a self insert, wish fufillment and basic novel that if by all the lazy tropes we can extrapolate some i havent seen probably is going to have korean supremacy vibes, if you can enjoy a novel of this type without falling in the abyss that this one wants to put your mind and enjoy it by only the literary prowess of the author there is many different ones worth your time more than this one.

korean hunter check
korean system check
korean guild check
korean sponsor check
absolute korean trash check

I'm reading the comic on asura scans, and it's pretty good. I'll give this a try and get back to everyone on how good this is.
