Data Dragon Danika

A VRMMO story of small proportions. There's a great war going on... somewhere, there's a desperate battle between the titans of PVP the next valley over, but meanwhile..... here's Danika. She's entered this virtual space as a tiny dragon, and she's determined to boldly go where none have gone before. 

It's a cozy read, give it a go and you won't regret it!

If you dislike MMO, game playing, cute animals doing human things, and lighthearted humor this story is not for you. The start of the story is not extremely original with Danika entering a new game and the ensuing shenanigans. It then tells a tale of a cute animal and her struggles to do human things. As long as the story does not take a dark turn, it seems like a good read.

This is a slice of life VRMMORPG tale. Not a human MC (dragon, yay!), not an OP MC (didn't I say dragon? How is that not OP?) and all in all a very low key story, except for the cuteness factor :-)
Tropes are turned upside down behind every corner, very refreshing!

Yes, there're wars and OP high level (beta) players, but Danika isn't interested in the former and didn't play the beta, so no OPness for her. But she may be interested in one of the latter so fair warning, romance may be ahead! (extremely low key though and not for the first few dozen chapters - whether that's a pro or a con depends on you, give it a try either way ;-) )
What I especially like is that this is a game. Danika plays for fun, not to earn the cost for her [enter heartrending story here], she's not blackmailed to win XYZ or her little sister get's it, there's no evil AI/hacker/corporation that wants to take over first the game, then the world.
It's just a game and we can all enjoy it with Danika, we're not supposed to enjoy her struggles as she plays because she's forced to do so, like so many other LitRPGs out there.

The writing is pretty close to perfect. Typos, mixed up words and left-overs from editing are pretty much eradicated.

The story itself is great. Aside from lots of cute, there's actual stuff happening, quite a difficult feat in a slice of life environment! True, it's often kinda meandering but there are lots of quests that actually advance the world as well, besides all the slices of life we get to see. Being a miniature dragon is sure exhausting^^

Just had to reread after the big reveal in the 50th (which was very anticlimactic and calm despite me categorizing it as 'big reveal' and no, I won't tell you what I'm talking about, read yourselves :p) and suddenly everything just jumped out at me. Nice setup!

Tl;dr it's a cute, feel good read that will put a smile on your face.

It's an adorable read about Danika playing as a tiny dragon in a mmo. Feels very slice of life in style and the plot lines so far are small quests, but are interesting to read still.

No issues with grammar and lifelike interactions with characters. 

Looking forward to more chapters :-D 

I don't usually like VRMMO stories, they're often far too destructive with more emphasis placed on the game system than on the characters. Not so with this one, the focus is on character development and the MC isn't a psychopath. I look forward to reading the continuing adventures of Danika.

The prose is simple but effective, and you'll only be dissapointed by the grammar if you're particulary picky.

This is VRMMO story with a fresh twist to the usual trope.

The small size of the MC makes things so much different, it really shows what a tiny character in a VRMMO can do, and how they interact with being far smaller than everyone else. The focus of this story is on the MC just having her adventures in the game.

The way of how the VR game is built, is just unique, its a living world of legends, yet it also behaves like a actual game more than even most of the VRMMO stories i have read on this site.

 Good writing, its easy to read, noticed only some small mistakes which usually get noticed and fixed.

 Im interested in just how the story will develop, there are just so many possiblities there.

Try to read the small details, they hint at stuff that will happen later on in the story.

(By the way, there are some sidestories posted on the patreon of the author and on webnovel, they are as enjoyable to read as the rest of the novel.)

My advice is, go read it, its a relaxing read and pretty unique.

Pretty fun Slice of Life. Character and game elements are well used and the System stuff is as sensible as it is robust. No regrets burning through this on a slow workday.

Two dings in my opinion:

1) The 'romance' on the male side (for the most part) feels a bit... 'yikes'. Their dynamics seem unbalanced, but it might be because it reminds me of another story which was a horror/romance that specifically played into/explored power dynamics. In a slice of life, the same mannerism feels unsettling, even if its only a vague similarity.

2) The 'classes' of the game are split into three broad 'paths'- Magic, Physical, Crafting- which seem to have sub-class 'paths'. The character has been adamant about refusing any paths so they could learn everything. But all their time has basically been on magic stuff. Basically nothing relating to crafting, and off the top of my head their one physical-pathy skill is arguably an innate-type since its a claw attack. After 800ish pages (as of this review) that seems like a weird character beat whenever it crops up since its never truely used except as an excuse to make things super inconvinient for her to learn things (but she has a special way of learning things anyway...) It was also a bit frustrating, since with the equipment size issues I was kind of expecting her to get tailoring or some kind of adorable tiny jewelry-smithing (which would effectively be blacksmithing/armorsmithing due to her size) so she could have equipment.

This a great slice of life sort of story with a little bit of romance that isn’t too bothersome. Not that I disaprove of a good romance or anything.

The story is virtual reality sci-fi, which means it’s basically adventure fantasy with the usul interruptions of actually being a living being.

The characters have distinct personalities and work well together. There isn’t as mich depth as some stories go with characyers but its not the type of story that needs ridiculously complicated protagonists and antagonists.

The style is heavily slice of life, the life being sliced being mmo video games and a lot of the nuance that goes with it. There aren’t any real villians so far, opponents maybe, bit no true antagonists. I’m eager to see where the story is going.

I love this story!  The characters are well developed and the pacing of that development proceeds smoothly.  The world is well built and the story is compelling and relaxing.

Your MC is   great narrate, and there are many small touches that has the reader immersed in the story.  I like the fact that there are different ways of interacting with the game and the layers of character development and interaction it introduces.  I also love that different uses for the VR tech is being developed and the numerous small ways you display that this world is just a little more advanced than ours.

This is a very lighthearted story, with a moderately large cast of diverse characters who, for the most part, avoid being repetative or feeling one-dimensional. I have noticed very few mistakes throughout the book, and none that hampered my enjoyment. Some points are lost on the story due to a lack of overall plot structure, but slice of life style works don't usually get good story scores, and the later chapters are showing promising developments.
