Its quite natural, not enjoying AGGO, after loving the main series. The most important thing to realize is that, while they both are set in the same universe, the storytelling and focus of AGGO is completely different from that of the main series adventures. Main series approaches to the story telling with a focus on the adventure first, the personalities and psyche of characters second and the VR world itself the least. Meanwhile, AGGO focuses on the personalities and psyche of characters first, the world second and adventures the least.

This leads to the main series characters being shaped up by their adventures, in a world where the "adventure" takes us to. Meanwhile in AGGO, characters are already shaped up and their personalities, with the combination of the world around them, leads into "adventures".

While it's a subtle difference, it chances a lot of things in perceiving the story without people realizing. In fact, it's quite natural if you don't enjoy one, while absolutely loving the other.

I personally love both series, but I love both of them for different reasons. They still cater to my preferences that I dont dislike any, but they satisfy me on different levels, unrelated to each other.
