What? I have a couple of questions cause I want to understand your take. Does the story really want you to dislike those who don't fight, or those who don't contribute? There are civilians who do tasks such as cooking, crafting, etc. The only ones that have irked me are those who didn't want to do anything at all when others were risking their lives for them. Or those who chose to sow discord.
And Han? A psychopath? You need to keep reading for sure. He's fighting to survive, but he really and truly does come to care for them. Like, I've cried so much.
if you think of it as psychological thriller maybe it’ll help your view of the manhwa? you’re not really meant to feel catharsis. the manhwa doesn’t decide that for you. the idea is the uncertainty of life. not “look how many people we can make obedient”. the end goal of loki is for synthesis to not be used eventually but they’re at the early stages and under the control of another account owner. trust this is really peak. i can explain all the nuances and psychology behind it but its so much better to experience it yourself. MC isn’t a psychopath, he does feel a lot, but he just knows how the world works and has a goal (to go back to the real world). in the beginning he’s not as panicked as the others because of what he knows. remember that he is a top player.
theres a lot of action and psychological plots waiting for you.
Just starting out, but it really rubs me the wrong way. The story really wants me to dislike 1-Stars who won't fight, and feel some kind of catharsis at their deaths.
MC is kind of just a psychopath, and not in the fun way.
