Thanks for this review. I was not interested in this title before.

Going to read it now.

Finished reading the novel. I think the author was successful in what he was trying to do. So I am eagerly awaiting for the volume 2 of the light novel to come out.

Same thought here, as the author said in the afterword writing too much from the protag POV would have make the atmosphere much less gripping and this would have highlighted the unavoidable stereotypes of the Dungeon Master genre, for someone who isn't used to them some aspect might feel rushed, personally i'm fine with most of the Dungeon Master interface utilisation scenes being implied or rushed. This first volume did its job as a starter, making you want to discover more of this universe, especially after reading Vampy's sad backstory it's hard not to wonder what kind of walking disaster the others 5 were. Considering the huge number of player trapped, i'm hoping for another multi PoV with new players characters in the following volumes.
