Summary
The year is 2076, and mankind has perfected VR technology using the Chip, an implant that interfaces directly with the human brain, using it like an organic computer. Age of Anarchy Online (AAO) is the newest game released by Icestorm, makers of the legendary World of Destiny (WoD).
Unlike VR games before it, AAO promises a 110 percent “Better Than Life” realism experience, and to showcase this, Icestorm announces that AAO will have no “Out of Character” rules, save for actions like hacking or exploiting system errors. Players can do anything to NPCs and even other players, and there will be no consequences save what one may suffer in game. "Do what thou wilt, but it may be done to you in turn".
Mike Greene, better known in WoD as Torgan, a max level Paladin and leader of the lords of light, one of the top “light side” guilds in WoD, now sets off on a new adventure in AAO.

It's a good series of books by a wonderful author.
But I feel like he could have done better for the narrative, he skipped lots of things in one of the chapters. And I struggled to see who was speaking, very monotoned, no inflictions for either times of peace or times of fighting, the books are better in this case.

Spectacularly dull
I thought this would be a subversion of the usual LitRPG stuff we see all the time with no rules in the world but it really isn't. The character never kills a shopkeeper because they want something overpriced. He starts a forest fire to kill a bunch of enemies. All he does is go around enslaving or raping female characters.
Ok, so you're thinking this is just smut. A main character with, if I recall correctly, a 20 inch penis might indicate that. However, there is very little smut beyond "I took her to bed. Then the next day." or "We have to fuck with everyone watching. I woke up the following morning." I don't know if it was cut for Audible but it seemed weirdly lacking for what you'd think this fic is.
That leaves a villain fic except he mixes good deeds with bad. Enslaves an enemy, bans her from logging out then forces her to be raped in a brothel for hours. Then finds a powerful dragon slave and frees her for a kiss. Given that the rules are meant to be enforced on players doing bad shit it's weird that all the NPCs cheer him on.
Fair warning it gets quite gross. There's a fair bit of impalimg women on spits to cook them alive and eat. A lot of rape and there's one bit with a woman forced to be their toilet. How there's all of that but no smut IDK. Seems weird.
Then there's the minimal plot. The main character is Gary Stu on steroids. Every decision he makes is the right one. Every battle he fights he wins. He never struggles. He plays video games all day for 16 years but has time to work out and earn cash (although he inherited a lot of wealth too). Just a painfully dull character. All of the surrounding characters from the NPCs to the other players taking this game far too seriously are dull as dishwater too.
The narration is poor too. The narrator is unenthusiastic (unsurprisingly) and there are a lot of mistakes for example at 2:55:24 he says pre-resuquites rather than prerequistites, multiple times. At 8:48:08 he repeats a sentence and at 9:46:12 he repeats half of one. And these were just the ones I could be bothered to bookmark when I had my phone out. And it is very slow, you can easily listen at 1.2x or higher.
I listened to the end to see if it got better and it didn't. The only reason it's not getting 1 star is because at least Grosse tried to do something a bit different. I didn't like it but some did and writing something like this can't have been easy.
