Full Dive RPG, just like the title says, is about a game that's even shittier than real life.
After the MC gets scammed into buying a game that's over 10 years old for 100 bucks by an attractive shopkeeper he suffers through a game that lets you feel real pain, has only one savegame and needs you to buy a new console to start a new run. After doing some stupid stuff because he wasn't aware of that extremely stupid concept of a game, he proceeds to suffer through that mess of a game that he can't even return because of the shop's "no refunds" policy.
People say this is fun, but I somehow don't see it. I only see a person suffering way too long through a mistake instead of just sucking it up that he lost 100 Bucks. I am not enjoying this psychological torture porn. And I see a lot of plot holes as well, because the story feels very forced. Any normal person would have quit the game very soon, yet the MC continues to play it for way longer than is good for him....
Do you know the series "Pitch meeting" on Youtube? With the running gag "why?" - "So the movie can happen." ? Because this is the entire plot here.
I mean yeah, he does so, so the story can happen and maybe because the shopkeeper is very attractive and offered to play with him, but I don't buy it.
Well... if you turn your brain capacity to about 60% and ignore those things you actually get a decent story with very dark humour and some really cringy scenes. Not in the way a romcom MC is "cringe" but cringe in the way that sends shivers down your spine because the MC is actually suffering. I personally can't enjoy things like that, but there are people who do - so if you are one of them, this show is for you! Because MC suffers a lot.
For the time of this review I rate this 6/10 .
