In fact, under the control of the gods, the human world wasn't particularly miserable, nor was it particularly pleasant during the wars of the gods.
Although humanity had developed its own civilization, with some technological powers even threatening the gods, there had never been an incident where a god was slain by someone of the Legendary Tier.
In the most recent Doomsday Destruction, almost all of human civilization suffered devastating blows, with the newly risen human civilization regressing by thousands of years. Not only humans but also other races rose during this time, competing with humans for control of the entire world.
If it weren't for the players entering this world, it's questionable whether humans would still dominate this world in a few hundred years.
