Tbh I feel like the premise never changed. The story is about a OP human in an undead body living the role and moving forward. If I wanted to read about a teenage kid working his ass to go back to the real world, then I'd watch SAO or Log Horizon, which I did and then moved on.

It isn't a story about going back to his world, it isn't a story about his world, it is about the new world and an overpowered Alien overlord being introduced to this world full of inferior beings. It isn't a story about Satoru, it is a story about Ainz Ooal Gown, the overlord and Nazarick.

Then there is the thing of if there even is a world for him to go back to, or if he is still connected to his body. On a linear timeline it would seem that while he is in there, his body is aging on the outside, and if he got out everything would be alright.

But then you remember that players arrive once every 100 years, and all players online when shutdown were sent at random points in time if they were separated. 700 years before his arrival there were other players that also got stuck... 700 years is an awful long time, there could still be players alive over 100 years if they were cautious and non-human.

So comparing a player over 100 years, what happpened to his body? Did it deteriorate? Did time freeze for them while inside the game? Highly unlikely.

Because it is just Momonga, it is hard to compare, but if he met another player that arrived before him, the subject would come up. How long they have all been there, what happened to their original bodies, and would they even have a body to return to if they did somehow find a way?

But again, the story isn't about going back to their bodies, or finding a way back to their shitty world. It is about embracing the new world and moving on, so I feel like the premise it pretty damn accurate.
