Despite how (rightfully) the first and second season of SAO was lambasted as being bad (though I'll defend part 2 of season 2 to the death), from all accounts it got a lot better in a lot of the later iterations.
SAO Abridged does the first season better anyway, and hopefully the game isn't VR compatible...
what are you talking about? SAO season 1 is the landmark season that launched the whole isekai genre into mainstream popularity. it was a phenomenon.
If people talk shit about SAO season 1, it's only because edgy kids online think it's cool to shit on whatever is the most popular to prove how elite and snobbish they are. "Oh... you like MARVEL? Hahahahah it's so popular! You must be an idiot! Big brained geniuses like me only like experimental kidobukakke films from the 1970s. Oh? You've never heard of them. Figures. SMIRK I have the only copy." Yeah, ok buddy.
SAO's later seasons never came close to the impact season 1 had.
Season 2 with the flying elf shit was dumb. Major downgrade. The villain was stupid too and a laughably unrealistic cartoon who kept licking Asuna's face. They might as well have given him a mustache so he could twirl it.
I also think all the gun gale shit was dumb and the protagonist little pink girl was a waste of time.
Alicitzation or whatever was finally a return to "old school" SAO in terms of having a big, epic video game isekai plot. It was plenty weak in a lot of areas, but it was a lot better than all the stuff in the middle.
Well, if anything was going to get me to stay far away from it, it would be this just before the horde of anime profile photos that pedos like to hide behind
