Any suggestions for more MMO anime? I have seen the SAO ones (mostly), Of Grimnar and Ash, BoFAri and a few others I can't think of right now. I just tried watching .hack starting with the first), I think I watched it in the past and liked it, but the lack of combat at all, and the slow start is making me want to find something else decent.
Overlord (world politics manipulation by virtue of being super OP at the start), Log Horizon (economics and player diplomacy, similar to .hack but much better), Recovery Of An MMO Junkie (love story about the real-world players who find refuge in MMO anonymity and friendships), Death March, How Not to Summon a Demon Lord (kind of brainless but entertaining)

If you expand the definition towards isekai with game-y mechanics in general, there's the slime anime, Shield Hero, Gate (it's japanese imperialist/military propaganda but still a pretty good time), The Devil is a Part Timer (the ever so rare reverse isekai, where the demon lord and hero become employees in modern day earth), Cautious Hero (it's more single-player jrpg than MMO elements)

...also Princess Connect is actually a trapped-in-the-MMO storyline, though the players are unaware and it's a game adaptation (but still a really good one). It's actually the second game's story, where the culmination of the first game is that the villain won and was granted the wish of everyone being trapped in the game

Out of all of those combined, Overlord and the slime one are easily the best, with Log Horizon either being your cup of tea or not. Log Horizon is kind of like .hack with much better pacing and existent occasional combat scenes. Overlord has three seasons so it's quite a lot of anime comparative to other stuff!

(I like DnD inspired and/or MMO anime the best).
Goblin Slayer is extremely western DnD (the protagonist is kind of like an ideal low level dnd character making use of literally everything he can), but you have to be able to tolerate certain things, like.... the first episode, where they drum into you how cruel goblins are
