This anime is probably a fan favorite, but honestly this is a disaster!
Pros:
The world of SAO and the depth of this virtual reality is pretty awesome! The main character is pretty cool, he is strong, somewhat passive. His swords though are incredible, in design and strength?
Cons:
The plot was not there at all, it was sooooo un interesting. The goal was not survival nor wining the game, instead the players focused on giving up and settling there in the virtual reality.
With the main female character, and the "daughter", it felt like I was watching a barbie commercial, it was fucking cute, boring, lovey-dovey stuff, which I did not care for.
The time progression was another disaster, I believe on the third episode the main character was already a legend and the strongest players in the game, and he went from level 1 to 60 something in like 3 episodes. but, we never saw him fight to gain strength or practice, all he did was dream and sleep. WTF!!
Dislike this series so much and the fans it got, because honestly there is no real story here. I give SAO a 4 and would NOT recommend!
Watch BTOOM! instead!
Reading your review of SAO, I think you'd enjoy Log Horizon; even though it's only just started and you'll have to wait for each episode (from 12 if you started now) you'd probably enjoy that. It has more of the 'game factor' which you seem to be looking for instead of the romance.
You could of also presented your review in more detail and gave it some basis, but that's probably preference.
