Summary
In the web novel 'I'm Probably The Only One Playing a Different Game,' readers are immersed in a futuristic world where virtual reality gaming has taken center stage. The protagonist, Touno Tsuguharu, opts for a unique approach to the new VRMMORPG, Arca Storia—Arst, by focusing on reading books within the game's history and culture rather than traditional quests. As he delves deep into the guild archives, the NPCs and his support AI grow increasingly bewildered by his unconventional gameplay. This adventure unfolds in a setting of fantasy and adventure, with hints of Shounen Ai romance and possessive characters, offering a fresh perspective on gaming and storytelling.

Description

In a world where most social activities already moved to virtual space, a brand-new VRMMORPG, Arca Storia—Arst for short—had just been released. It boasted a level of reality that could be called the “remarkably lifelike another world” that everyone had dreamed of.

Touno Tsuguharu, a bookworm, saw the advertisement for the game and had a thought: if it’s so intricately-built, maybe I can read books created from its unique history and culture? 

He ignored the typical adventure of battling monsters and traveling from town to town. Instead, when he arrived at the starting town, he immersed himself in the guild archive room and never showed any intention of leaving. The NPCs gradually grew perplexed by his behavior. His support AI watched on with laughter.

This is a gameplay diary of Tohno, who spent his time reading in the game world and occasionally took on part-time jobs (*quests) to sort information in order to raise funds. Before he knew it, a handsome mercenary NPC with his own secrets already had him in his sights.
