Just looking for some novels, preferably fully translated, that you guys think were really good. I prefer stuff where mc is put into an unfamiliar situation and has to adapt to it, i.e. most transported/survival/game like novels.
A Step into the Past actually thinking about it, I'll rec a JP novel for once, Mushoku Tensei. In case you haven't read it already.
Oh, don't mind if I recommend my favorite story on this site here then. Reborn as my Love Rival's Wife - The MC does get "transported" in a sense and put in an extremely unfamiliar situation; having to adapt to an unfamiliar body, and having to struggle to survive in a household soap opera situation. lol It's one of the most hilarious novels I've read on this site, that alone should be enough to give this one a shot. Give it a try, you'll not regret it...probably?
Apotheosis of a Demon – A Monster Evolution Story I highly recommend this. This has transported, survival, and game in one novel. Its not yet fully translated, only halfway. If you don't mind a bit of violence and killings, then this novel fits your criteria.
Can you give some examples of novels that you've read before and enjoyed? You can also try turning your reading list to public. I would definitely recommend The Earth is Online. It's a survival novel with a very unusual but interesting situation, video-game elements and a pretty level-headed male MC, and is definitely one of my favorite novels. It has really nice pacing, and while there's very very very light BL, it's barely there since the novel is much more focused on the games and the strategies the characters employ to win each game. There's around 10 to 20 chapters interspersed within the total 250 chapters that can really be classified as BL, so don't worry too much if you don't like the genre. Other good novels: (all fully translated) Pain, Pain, Go Away is a really incredible novel with a nice plot twist; male MC runs over a girl who has the power to postpone her death and helps her fulfill her revenge on different people before she dies In a World Without Life is about what it sounds like; has transmigration and male MC; it's light romance, but it gets a bit sad and emotional Swamp Girl! seems pretty light-hearted at first but starts getting more contemplative and philosophical in the end; the male MC's identity gets more confusing as the story goes on; pretty interesting Katahane no Riku is about a girl who is abandoned by her family and joins the demon army; it seems pretty light but it actually gets pretty dark I Reincarnated as a Noble Girl Villainess But Why Did It Turn Out This Way? a otome game villainess story but it gets pretty dark really quick Spring Trees and Sunset Clouds is about a guy who is betrayed and after throwing himself off a cliff, ends up drifting to a strange land and basically wants nothing to do with his old life and begins to trust the community gradually; it's BL Supernatural Girlfriend is about a girl who is able to see ghosts after an accident; it's a romance but not as sappy as most with female MCs Half Prince a MMO novel, romance, female MC, pretty hilarious but also has a lot of wtf moments (or maybe that's just me, idk) Other interesting but not fully translated novels: Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith, Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter Sword Art Online also seems to fit your criteria? It's not one of my most favorite novels but it's pretty interesting; not sure if it's completely translated though
