You should join the Bobiverse. Not really LitRPG, but the main character isn't human. I think anyone in this sub would enjoy it alot.

I just recently finished We Are Legion, (We Are Bob), and it's first squeal. They were both thoroughly enjoyable, and right up the alley of what you are looking for.
Bob is a smart guy who makes millions in Silicon Valley, and subscribes to a service which will freeze him upon death, so that he can be woken up again when technology is able to fix whatever is wrong.
Only, he wakes up some years later to find he hasn't been 'fixed', but rather has been selected as a candidate to be the artificial intelligence for a Von Neumann probe, a probe that is able to fly out to a star system, then find, collect, and process resources to build copies of itself (and/or whatever else it needs), to be sent out for further exploration. Bob's primary mission is to find habitable worlds for Humanity, so they can escape the dying Earth (though Bob does still have free-will, and undertakes many missions of his own choosing). Each new probe includes a new unique copy of Bob, so as time goes on, we end up with many Bob's exploring the Galaxy, each making their own discoveries. Over the course of both books, the Bob's encounter all kinds of stuff, including primitive intelligence, as well as hostiles, both from Earth, and from elsewhere. The Bob's stay in contact with one another, and with Humanity as the colonization of new worlds begins.
In terms of story telling, I found these somewhat similar to The Martian. The entire story is told form the perspective of the Bob's, which should be noted have a pretty good sense of humor. These are pretty light, fun reads, and I highly recommend.
We are Legion (We are Bob) by Dennis E. Taylor, especially the Audiobook!
The Perry Rhodan series, longest running Sci-Fi series that I know of with basically everything sci-fi related in it at some point.
The Martian

I recommend We Are Legion (We Are Bob) [Bobiverse Book 1] and its sequels, by Dennis E. Taylor. Narrated by Ray Porter, it was an Audible exclusive. He does a great job of the voice of Bob. :D
Great story. I would love to see a sequel series for the Terrans. (gotta go back through and make sure all chapters have an upvote)
Also, this series reminds me of a book series I started reading midway through your first chapter and the last one. If you are interested in reading about what you wrote about.
The series is called "We are Legion; We are Bob" it also involves a human becoming a von Neumann spaceship. No alie...no spacefaring aliens in that series yet, though.
Alright let’s get the Bob’s involved. Bobiverse Series
It's not game lit, but if you want something similar and REALLY good, read "We Are Legion (We Are Bob)." It's great.
