Rocks on The Game That I Came From
Reading the other reviews I am a bit surprised at the negativity. As someone with over 500 comics in my reading history, finding a new manhua/manhwa with over 200 chapters that I had not heard of before caused me to immediately feel suspicious regarding it's potential quality.
Not only that, this is a manhua and not a manhwa. Not trying to be rude, but let's be honest. Pretty much all the good game comics are manhwa. Manhua does have genres it does well, but this usually isn't one of them.
That being said, the prospect of 200 chapters was obviously rather exciting so I gave it a shot, and I'm very glad I did. Not only is it significantly above average in terms of other game manhuas, but it is about equal with many of the better game manhwas. Let me explain the different things I am looking at when considering how well I like a game comic.
First, artwork. The art in this manhua is quite good. Defenitely well above average for manhuas with a large number of chapters. Panels are clear, and characters are consistent.
Next, story. Story is pretty hit or miss in game comics, primarily because most authors tend to focus on the game progression and leveling/questing as opposed to a specific plotline. That being said, development is pretty solid in this and I never was bored. It doesn't draw out grinding monotnously (shocking, I know), and the pace is pretty solid. Also, side characters get great development which is pretty rare, and very much appreciated.

Next, uniqueness. This isn't typically a good review metric, but given the enormous number of comics in this genre I like to include it because it is absolutely a factor in whether new readers decide to read it or not. I think that this manhua is acceptably unique. First, it is unique regarding it's setting. (Marked spoiler, although its basically revealed in the first chapter) Spoiler!
Abilities earned in the game are transferable to the real world depending on your synthesis rate. This includes skills, summons, and even equipment.
It is also unique regarding where it places it's mc. This is a regression story. It is very nice to see an mc who isn't so disgustingly broken that the only way the author is able to nerf him is to cause him to be 200 levels behind the other players. Mc is himself a ranker. His interactions with other rankers are enjoyable.
Lastly, I always consider how well the game is written when reading game comics. Many times they can be depressingly out of touch, unrealistic, too fuc**** broken, or confusing as sh**. This one is great. Author is definitely a gamer. Speedrunning strats are reasonably realistic. Abilities are not disgustingly broken. No stupid a** titles that give you +50 all stats (looking at you, sleeping ranker).
So while this manhua isn't a 10/10 hall of fame comic, it is absolutely a great read. And, considering it has 200 chapters (which are not short, by the way) it is absolutely worth reading! Give it a shot if you like game manhwa you will love this.
Note: loads of incels in the comment sections, but they're pretty much all weeded out by chapter 50 lol.
