1) The main reason people don't buy games is advertising and lack thereof, plus RPGs is still kind of a niche genre to begin with. Plus, the game probably has its flaws and I don't think your opening paragraphs hard sold the game well at all. You don't mention what kind of game it is in the beginning, either. Plus, might as well call it My World My Way once with (MWMW) to denote you will be abbreviating it for now on. It comes off as lazy in my eyes otherwise.

Thanks for this PP. Yeah, reading it again with your comments in mind I've ditched the whole *gamers* bit and rewritten the intro. Also you're right about insufficient detail on the basics of the game. I kind of glossed over that, so I've expanded it.

The screenshots and official site show her name as Elise with the ending e. Which is correct?

That's odd. Her name is Elis in my game, but I've seen a friend's game where it is Elise. Maybe both?

3) I like how you try to convince the reader that a RPG can have cliches if it makes fun of them, but I am not sure how many will buy into that concept.
