Could have been worst but it's not that good
Let me start with the casting.As always yang yang excels, but FML lacks emotions and expresivity. Also, the kiss scenes are... It doesn't matter how great it's Yang Yang at those when she's like a stick. It's awkward to see those scenes because it feels like either he's forcing her or she's like a plastic doll not reacting at all. Another thing that I didn't like was that FM seemed unhealthy skinny. I know that this is not related to her acting and probably it's just the way she is but I was more time concerned about her health that enjoying her acting.
SMF was funny and bubbly and the villains were as always in this type of Chinese dramas not that mean in the end.
The plot and story it's pretty simple and it became pretty boring like the ML and FL relationship. It's funny and interesting how they started but then it became just plain. There's not much development at all and it's just a story that could have been told in 10 eps instead of 30.
Music was okay, nothing worth mentioning.
In general, I think you can watch this and enjoy it if you like Yang Yang. Otherwise, there are much better options out there.

Only illogical part is people having so much trouble figuring out who the game players are in real life because the names provide so many clues. And the villain girls' motives don't really make sense to me; but it's a youth drama so you know, that can be forgiven.
The two leads... omg... chemistry was fuming hot. First time watching both of them act (actually, everyone; since I don't usually Mainland Chinese dramas), and oh my god I stan Yang Yang now. The character settings might be a bit cliche but I think the development of their love story was truly fulfilling.
If you're down for some cute fluff I highly recommend.

Underdeveloped Female Lead Character and Story. Overrated to me.
...................................................Let's start with 'why I choose to watch this?'
So, I chose to give it a try because of e-sport and romance as main theme, secondly for Yang Yang and thirdly it is quite popular.
I hadn't seen any work of the Main Lead actress before, so this was the first one. And to be honest, I'm very disappointed in the actress and dissatisfied with the makers.
ML is okay, but in my opinion this character doesn't suit Yang Yang, maybe because of the storyline. I have seen a few works of him, most of them are amazing, but this one 'a big no'.
...................................................
Now come to the plot and characters:
...................................................
The setting is in University. FL (Bai Wei Wei) is a student in CS engineering as well as ML (Xiao Nai), but ML is senior to her.
So Xiao Nai is quite popular in college and Wei Wei is among few girls who study CS and believes 'if boys can be smart in this field then why girls can't be'. So she chose to study CS and is quite a good student & intelligent and wants to prove herself.
She plays online games and met Xiao Nai through this game, but didn't know that this person is actually her senior. They made a team in the game and get success in their almost every mission as Xiao Nai is one of the best players in the game as well as Wei Wei. They both started to fall for each other. Xiao Nai discovered her identity first and asked her out, while she didn't know how exactly is Xiao Nai looks like in person, yet. They met, and she found out that the online partner she fell for is actually the senior she admired. Their real life relationship starts from here.
I admit, it was a good relationship as their was no misunderstandings, they trust and respect each other fully. But, it feels lacking in terms of chemistry. The expressions of main lead actress seems off sometimes.
There is little to no character development in the whole drama.
Xiao Nai started his own company but Wei Wei, she's just there to be a helping lady rather than, actually working and making contribution to prove that 'girls can be as smart as boys in software development'. What's her goal? Where are her efforts? She's just being stuck in romance and doing nothing else. And her friends, they are so annoying and just waste of screentime.
...................................................
At last, Xiao Nai's company get success in their project and his dream comes true, but what about Female Lead.
I don't understand why even was she in drama? Did she do something for herself? Did she do something for Xiao Nai? Did she do anything for anyone to make any change in their life? She did Nothing. Her character is so underdeveloped.
The only thing I like in this drama is that Xiao Nai and Wei Wei's relationship is good and appreciable. That's solely the reason I'm giving it this much rating, otherwise it's just waste of time, despite being highly rated and popular, to me.
...................................................
I would not recommend this to the ones who want to watch a good plot and developed characters.

Most unrealistic romance
The romantic development of this drama was close to nonexistent, and probably the only reason why Love O2O didn’t get too low of a rating from me is because I actually found myself kind of enjoying the drama in a “it’s so bad it’s good” kind of way. Just let me complain for a little bit, though. The actor playing Xiao Nai was really stiff most of the time. Though the excuse can be made that “it’s just his character,” it still doesn’t justify his utter lack of expression the entire drama. He’s just not a good actor. Frankly, I noticed that lack of acting skill seems to be pretty prevalent in Chinese dramas especially. There’s many problems with Xiao Nai’s character, as well. He seems to completely lack any flaw and is your typical Mary Sue character. It’s boring. Additionally, I found a problem with him declaring Weiwei his girlfriend and then his fiancee ALL without her consent. Pardon, sir, is this not the 20th century? This shit isn’t gonna fly with me. Now on to Bei Weiwei… sigh. I am gonna be honest. I wanted to punch her in the face for the entire duration of the drama. Though the actress seems to at least have a better grasp on acting, Miss Bei Weiwei herself was a completely infuriating character. I won’t go into detail, but her hopeless pranks on Nai and her absolutely ridiculous questions made me face palm many a time. At the beginning, she was also acting very dramatic about her initial interactions with Xiao Nai. Can we also discuss how the entire drama’s plot seems to revolve around random university kids always trying to ruin Weiwei’s reputation and constant misunderstandings? Yeah, it got reeeaally old after the first five times it was used as a plot device. I know I just went off on a major tangent, but overall this drama was pretty decent as far as entertainment value goes. Frankly, I quite enjoyed the video gaming and the video game development aspect of the show. It is what drew me to it in the first place. With that said, I still spent most of my time making fun of the show rather than genuinely enjoying it. Honestly, just go watch Go Go Squid. It’s similar enough to the premise of this drama, and, though it has its own share of problems (see my Go Go Squid review <3) the characters at least have some dimension and personality.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

One of my Favorite Dramas
Its cute to say the least. Its a realistic series with youthfulness, first loves, shyness, and all around sweet getting to pursue your dreams.The fantasy side, is somewhat of a romantic gamer's dream. Characters fighting evil together, typical bad guys, and the supporting friends that stick beside you.
There are a few corny scenes lol during the fantasy but nothing worth skipping scenes.
It's the fantasy of most romantics to have someone pursue you and always be there when you need them and to never hurt you.
Supporting roles, the roomate & business partners, those guys were awesome lol they kept me laughing.
Female supports, were cute and silly besties with the FL. One of them did get on my nerves lol but that goes to show, how well she played her part. Ha.
3 best scenes in my opinion
☆ when ML goes to FL class
☆ when ML sits in stands
☆ when FL is hurting emotionally and ML reaction is heartwarming and gets an A+ for telling her everything she needed to hear, and meaning it ❤️
There is a cute bromance, too! 😍
ENJOY!

Alors je n'ai eu que des bonne surprise dans ce drama.
Enfin une trame rafraîchissante qui sort de l'ordinaire. L'histoire est vraiment innovante , il y auras toujours de petits truc qui dérange un peu comme l'adoration de tout le campus pour Yang mais avec tout ce que nous apporte ce drama , on pardonne très vite.
Des bons acteurs bien qu'ils manquent de peps au début de la série . Je dois bien vous dire que le personnage me faisait me tirer des cheveux par moment xDD Mais bon il est tellement adorable par raport à Wei wei <3 En parlant d'elle, elle aurait pu avoir un peu plus de caractère enfin après c'est plus mes préférence. Je suis une fan des girl badass :)
Et contrairement à ce que je craignais. Le visuel du jeu était vraiment convainquant, j'avais impression d'être plonger dans un mmorpg. Ca atteint pas le design de Gw2 mais pour une série. j'ai vraiment été conquise :)
Si vous hésitez, allez-y. A mon avis vous n'allez pas le regretter. Ce drama a tout pour devenir un de vos coup de coeur

This drama nopeee - steady all the way.
Casting all gooood!
However there might be someone suitable for female lead? This drama actually based from novel and it can considered my first very Chinese- translated novel I have read and re-read again. This drama also brought me into C-drama. I am in love with lots of C-drama since then. Back to female lead, when I first read the novel - my imagination for female lead is cheeky & outgoing characteristic. The way this female lead portrayed - abit flat feel?
Oh especially kissing scenes.....that’s probably the reason not Full Five Stars.
Overall okay, funny and sweet moments can re-watch and when kissing scene pop, forward to next sweet moments. I bet we continue watch for other dramas sweet+kissing scenes - for this I cannot bear to watch Yang Yang kissing...alone

Oh dear…boring drama.
I have watched a lot of dramas,but in my opinion this was one of the worst. The overall story is boring and empty, with no meaty storyline to get your teeth into,also there was a lot of prolonged shots,ie gazing at each other for quite a few seconds all the time,which made this drama so long.I watched a bit at a time as I got so bored.I’ll never judge the actors who had to work with the script, they did their best with a poor script..
This is what I thought and of course everyone has their own personal views.

Romantic and beautiful drama
what a really good drama! I've watched this over and over again and never got bored! there are no problems / conflicts that are really very serious but this is really good and a little relaxed, I really like this drama especially because this drama doesn't really cover up the strengths of the female lead, I like it when everyone is annoyed and deceived that Reed Wei Wei is a girl a beauty, not a sissy. This drama requires patience up to episode 10 if you want to quickly see Weiwei and Xiaonai's interactions in real life, hahaEsta resenha foi útil para você?
10x and I still love it!
My favourite campus romance where I have re-watched so many times, I lost tracked of how many! I love the light hearted but interesting storyline, the cast especially the ML - Yang Yang, the costumes, the soundtrack, the gaming scenes, special effects, the directing... the only blemish is the female lead who acted overly exaggeratedly.It's rare to find a show with no scheming third parties, where the 2 main leads are a sweet couple dealing with their obstacles together, with open communication and without the usual immaturity or pettiness.
Overall, I loved this show. This is one drama you have to watch. You will not regret it.

Best light, modern C-drama
I love this show soo much! It was actually my first C-drama, and I've rewatched it at least 5 times since last year. The plot is nice because they meet up early enough and have no real relationship problems throughout the whole show, which is a lot different than other C-dramas. The characters all pretty much get a happy ending, and the main couple trusts each other so much. For people who like a bit more drama, this might not be for them, but if you like a light drama focused on romance, then you'll love this show.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
