Overgeared (WN KR) novel is a popular light novel covering Action, Adventure, and Comedy genres. Written by the Author Park Saenal. 1907 chapters have been translated and translations of other chapters are in progress.
Brief Overview
The basis of this novel is a virtual reality game called Satisfy, developed by the world’s top genius scientist Lim Cheolho and world-class scientists.
The main character is timid, flaky, selfish, cares about money and easily feels jealous of others. Because the author set up the character in this way, the story was difficult for the readers to read.
But as the main character encounters various people and geniuses, he internally matures and his personality changes. If the main character is described as cancerous early on, at present he can be called a mature adult. However, those who don’t read beyond the early parts of the 5th volume (~ chapter 90) find it hard to believe.
The basic settings and story line are similar to other VR novels, but the praiseworthy thing is the content development. The early parts aren’t much different from rival novels, but the novel rating has exceeded the market average in recent years due to the writer’s growth.
Like other novels, it contains a munchkin element, but it is different from typical munchkins. In the early stages, the game progresses with the main character using his class of a legendary blacksmith. The main character expands the game content and the level of the existing users dramatically increase. Hidden talents, new players in the official rankings, classes that could break the balance, all of this makes the main character’s one-man show impossible. The main character grows internally and externally while competing with others.
In fact, if you compare the simple and ignorant battle method in the beginning to his abilities in the present time, it is possible to feel such a sense of distance that he doesn’t seem like the same character.
As for the evaluation of the work, the criticism was severe in the beginning, but the popularity increased rapidly after that. As described above, the improvement in the author’s writing and the growth of the main character led to rapid changes in the comments. However, the main character’s selfish and frustrating behaviour caused many readers to stop reading in the beginning. For the readers who have gone beyond the beginning, it is a tragedy that seems really pitiful.
Currently, its popularity is increasing and a webtoon was recently released. However, there are many criticisms of the webtoon due to the various changes made

Comments on the novel chapters for the last week.
There is one point I don't understand. If it's gave but he treat NPC like real being. Since he has wifes and friends. Won't it would be sad story in end when server shutdown. And all the data is deleted?
Is it one of those where it starts off as VR game but then it becomes reality/another world??
This was the first novel that I actually read that was very long like 1500+ chapters and now I don't know where I stopped because I caught up to it and left to read alot of others, so as my way to pay respect I will reread it again!
I remember reading so much of this back in the pandemic on another site. I read about 1200+ chapters maybe, I don't remember exactly. But I just remember this being a really really good story. I think it's what I read after finishing the novel for Solo Leveling / I Alone Level Up. I can't believe it's still ongoing... I want to start reading it again, but I don't have the time to start over from chapter 1. It'll actually take months for me to catch up... I have quite the dilemma on my hands but eh, I'll see how it goes.
I just read upto ch 1905 on another website and it's finally revealed why rebecca constantly caused destruction of the world and da*mn that was so unexpected ... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Apparently both yahan and her knew that they were created and knew this was a game. So,both of them hated their creater
Can anyone tell me when did grid become god?
Time for lap 2. All hail God Grid!!
I've read dozens of novels but I always come back to this and legendary mechanic. In my opinion they are hands down the best novels on here.
authors/artists/translators always take their longest break right when i catch up to whatever series i’m reading and i’m tired of this targeted harassment
there's been an added 200 chapters since my last reading, might as well re-read.
