People who say “Sword Art Online” invented the “protagonist trap in game” thing don’t know about .Hack
Sword art online and .Hack have overlapping development and release dates, so neither of them can really be said to come first. Both were being written/developed in 2001, where as .Hack came out in March 2002, and the SAO web novel went online in November 2002.
The most notable thing that predates them both is Tron, but I’m sure there are others.
I really wish there didn’t have to be competition between the various series like .Hack, Sword Art Online and Log Horizon. They’re all vastly different series with vastly different themes and stories they’re trying to explore. They just happen to have MMO games at their core.
