The Gamer Ability Explained
The concept of "gamer ability" comes from the manhwa (Korean comics) "The Gamer" by Sung San-Young. In the story, the protagonist, Han Jee-Han, gains the ability to perceive and interact with the world as if it were a video game, complete with stats, levels, skills, and quests.
Most fanfic/novels use this to create their own 'system' copied from this one.
Here's a Simple explanation of this ability:
1) Gamer's Mind: Han Jee-Han's first and most basic ability is Gamer's Mind, which grants him an innate sense of calm and logic even in the face of danger or stress. This ability allows him to quickly analyze his surroundings and make informed decisions, similar to how a player would strategize in a video game.
{One of the most common abilities in any gamer-type fanfic}
The Gamer's Mind is every [MC] first and most basic ability, and it's what allows them to stay calm and rational in even the most dangerous and stressful situations. This ability essentially gives them a mental "cheat code" that allows them to think clearly and logically, even in situations where others might panic or make mistakes.
The Gamer's Mind has several benefits. First, it allows [MC] to quickly assess their surroundings and analyze their opponents' strengths and weaknesses. This gives them a strategic advantage in combat, as they are able to plan their attacks and defenses more effectively.
Second, the Gamer's Mind helps [MC] stay focused on their goals. In the [Chosen anime world], there are many distractions and potential dangers that can derail a person's plans. However, with the Gamer's Mind, [MC] is able to maintain their focus and stay on task, even in the face of obstacles.
Finally, the Gamer's Mind gives [MC] a sense of clarity and purpose. In the story, They initially feel lost and directionless, unsure of what they want to do with their life. However, once they gain the Gamer's Mind, They are able to see the world more clearly and understand their own goals and motivations. This helps him become a more confident and self-assured person
{Although this ability is most often ignored with this ability while the MC should remain in a constant state of calm meaning they should never be able to get scared, feel panic, or bloodlust but that is not the case as most authors forget about it or ignore it}

2) Gamer Body: Grants a body that allows the user to live the real world like a game. Sleeping in a bed restores HP, MP, and all mass effects.
{The gamer body is the backbone of gamer ability with this ability all limitations on the physical body are removed it gives:
A body that allows the user to live in the real world like a game. (Receive no physical damage from attacks only pain for a few seconds and a loss of HP).
After sleeping in a bed, it restores HP, and MP and cures all status effects.
Overconfidence: With a body that allows the user to live in the world like a game character and take no physical damage from attacks, the user may become overconfident in their abilities and take unnecessary risks. This can lead to dangerous situations and potential failure in battles or quests.
Potential for Addiction: The ability to live in the world like a game character may be addictive but it comes with the drawback that every physical and magic skill is dependent on this ability should it be removed the {MC} will become a normal human all abilities will be lost as it is the gamer ability that allows them to access fictional powers.
Loss of the gamer ability is a reset for some MCs while others will keep their powers gained from this ability}

Stat Menu: Han Jee-Han can access a stat menu that displays various stats such as strength, agility, intelligence, and more. These stats represent his physical and mental attributes, and they can be increased through training and experience. The stat menu also shows his current level, experience points, and health points.
{The stats menu is a visual representation of every main character's physical and mental abilities, similar to what you might see in a video game. It shows stats such as strength, agility, intelligence, and more, which can be increased through training and experience.
The stats menu also displays the character's level, which represents their overall experience and power. As they gain more experience, their level increases and they become stronger and more skilled.
In addition, the stats menu tracks the character's health points (HP) and mana points (MP), which represent their physical health and magical energy, respectively. HP decreases when they take damage, while MP is used to cast spells and perform other magical abilities.
When a character levels up, they gain stat points that can be allocated to different stats, allowing them to skip training for that specific stat. Some skills and abilities have stat requirements, meaning that the main characters must have a certain level or minimum stat value to learn or use them.
The basic stats are these:
Strength: As the name implies its physical power, also includes the ability to lift and carry heavy objects, deal more damage in melee combat, and resist physical attacks.
Vitality: This stat represents a character's physical resilience, including the ability to withstand damage, resist poisons and diseases, and recover from injuries [It Might also increase lifespan and HP regeneration if you have a certain amount of stat points]
Agility: This stat represents speed and dexterity, including the ability to dodge attacks, move quickly, and perform acrobatic maneuvers.
Intelligence: This stat represents mental capacity, including the ability to learn new skills it is often tied with mana/magic [ Important thing to know increasing this stat will not make the MC intelligent ]
Wisdom: This stat represents perception and intuition, including the ability to sense danger, make good decisions, and avoid traps tied with mana/magic [ Does not make the character wiser ]
Endurance: This stat represents stamina and endurance, including the ability to perform physical tasks for extended periods of time without getting tired.
Luck: This stat dictates the world around the MC [ More Luck = more exp + rarer items + more critical hit chance + more evasion + more item drop ] [ It also dictates if MC will meet a plot-relevant character or higher level beings ]
