comment
Return To Player is a Korean webcomic by Sehon Umky where the Gods have imposed an MMO game interface on the world. Sehan Kim has achieved the "Bad End" as the only survivor of humanity. While contemplating his final fate, the game interface informs him of the option for a second playthrough. He accepts it, suddenly finding himself transported back to the day the original game started. With all the knowledge of his first playthrough, he hopes to change things for the better.It updates every Saturday.

You Have Failed Me
 Return To Player (Webcomic) / int_474e3977
comment
You Have Failed Me: Most of the gods, even the seemingly more benevolent ones, see mortals as nothing more than toys. What do you do when you get tired of a toy? You throw it away. In the first timeline, since Earth was arousing less and less entertainment from the gods, they decided to punish their toys with a Downer Ending by killing everyone. In a dungeon representing how a tragic past could have gone differently, Sehan Kim needs to not only re-complete the quest he was fulfilling at the time, but pull it off so spectacularly that the gods will take interest again and permit Earth to have a Bittersweet Ending instead.

Jerkass Gods: A major part of the whole story. The gods only see mortals as toys and invade entire worlds to use them as disposable game boards. The invading System forces mortals to kill or be killed by monsters and one another. Players must fulfill the System's quests on penalty of death. The System disrupts all of society and humanity dies off in these quests at a faster rate than they can reproduce. The gods won't leave until they get bored or humanity's numbers have dropped to a certain level. If the mortals fail to provide the gods with enough entertainment, the gods finish off all of the survivors as punishment. Even demons are less vile, as they have actual pragmatic reasons to participate in the game.

The Chosen Many
 Return To Player (Webcomic) / int_a2fea27d
comment
The Chosen Many: The System picks a bunch of mortals to be "players", giving them supernatural powers based upon itself and the gods. Most of humanity is not so empowered and are left as "NPC" victims. There is no known means of promoting NPCs to players outside of the System's choices. Even the gods lack the ability to appoint players. Each god gets to accept a single player as their "avatar". The god treats their avatar as an equivalent to their Player Character. They cannot control their chosen avatar, but they focus their attention on them and give them the occasional sponsorship in return for entertainment, such as juicy info or skills. While avatars receive benefits, they also receive restrictions that normal players are not subject to, which is why Sehan tries to avoid letting his party members become avatars except when strictly necessary.

Rage Against the Heavens: The gods killed Earth and everyone on it for fun in the previous timeline. The vast majority of the gods only see mortals as toys and take far more from the world than they give. Needless to say, Sehan hopes to use his knowledge of the future and a secret about the System that even the gods didn't know about to take revenge.

Reasoning with God: As part of Sehan's Second Playthrough, he has access to the Gods' chat room and logs in as Anonymous User 48.

In a dungeon that uses a sort of Dream Land to simulate Set Right What Once Went Wrong, Sehan persuades the gods to change their minds about destroying Earth in the first timeline by appeasing them with sufficient entertainment.

Unlockable Content: As part of Sehan's second playthrough, he has access to the DLC store. The points he had at the end of the first playthrough are available to spend in it. Good thing he had kept so many, because buying the second playthrough cost one million points. With much of the equipment Sehan buys in the store and gives to others, he lies and says that it came from defeated monsters. It's also what gives Sehan access to the forums.
