What's the point in the Gamer System when it doesn't add nearly anything to the story?
It's hard to feel elated at progress the MC makes when it's just hard nerfed at times when it should work.
I'm not going to go too in to it but Gamer's Mind is kinda what defines Gamers, it basically a free pass for authors to force that story forward and you're literally nerfing your own character to accelerate the plot, which I understand and might've been done the same but it still kinda pushes my button.
To all three of you, Cam doesn't have "The Gamer System", he has always had a light version of it; hence why since day 1 I've called it things like "Player's Mind" and "Player's Body". Also both abilities were altered back in the system update when Cam was 11. I know that was a very long time ago, and I know that's not how other Gamer systems/stories work, but it is how this one does.
Gamer's Mind is... a broken ability that removes narrative tension from the majority of Gamer-styled stories if it isn't "nerfed" from the get-go, as was done here.
I really appreciate you giving him weaknesses like the Gamer Mind not always working, because otherwise it'll probably be pretty boring
Aye, which is why it's not the 'out-and-out' Gamer's Mind that he has.
