I really enjoy Kit Falbo's The Crafting of Chess, and I don't feel like it gets a lot of advertising/talk. https://www.amazon.com/Crafting-Chess-LitRPG-adventure-ebook/dp/B07P1YRHTX/
Also, Sarah Lin's trilogy New Game Minus https://www.amazon.com/Changing-Faces-LitRPG-Adventure-Minus-ebook/dp/B07KMMT9TX/
She has a superb Urban Fantasy Wuxiua coming out too.
I just read Changing Faces: New Game Minus, and the MC is a former NPC that becomes a "player", but doesn't know it's a game world. So he's dealing with nonsensical game mechanics (getting exp, getting stronger at a level up, etc.) and fully aware of how ridiculous it would be in a realistic world.
Definitely not clueless or stupid/bashful.

Some other recs:
Drew Hayes' series: Spells, Swords, & Stealth - "NPCs" in a Dungeons and Dragons-esque world have to become adventurers. The main characters definitely are aware of D&D tropes and aren't stupid. This is a really good series, and it's a good time to get into it as the next book is coming out next month.

Hero of Thera: The MC gets sucked into a new world with game-like mechanics (leveling up, picking classes, new skills, new gear, etc.). So that I guess is an Isekai book. What sets it apart is the great writing and worldbuilding.
Also a good time to get into this, as book 2 should be coming out next month.

Full disclosure - I edited book 4 of Spells, Swords & Stealth and book 2 of Hero of Thera. But I'd recommend them even if I hadn't.
Is this request open in the future? I have a finished epic fantasy novel that I'm not quite ready to publish yet (kind of puttering around with it anxiously). Right now I've only published LitRPG books, which based on your preferences I wouldn't necessarily recommend to you.

EDIT: Okay, if you guys insist, here goes!

New Game Minus is my attempt to do something a little different in the LitRPG genre, with an NPC as protagonist to flip some common tropes around:
Book 1: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KMMT9TX/
Book 2: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N8CH9GN/

Street Cultivation is a new experiment I just started, serializing a story for free. I'm aiming for a modern-feeling, down-to-earth xianxia story. Only three chapters right now, but they're free here:

​
One day I'll publish my epic fantasy, though! These were both side projects I wrote as breaks from other writing, whereas I've been pouring love into that one for years.

​
MC is an NPC (sort off, the real nature of the world is ambiguousat first) who start as a lich necromancer but swap body with a barbarian adventurer and has to learn to exploit the power of the "box gods" (as in "message boxes" that he start to get after that).
​
While he does get some magic like abilities later as support, his main combat style will be bashing things with his greatwords with the occasionnal BattleCry or Qi-like short ranged strike
​
The serie is complete as a bonus
Sorry, I've only been getting into them recently (or at least finding ones I liked enough to finish recently anyways) so I'm probably not the best person to ask :(
That said, I read and reviewed one called Changing Faces recently that I thought was excellent. But that's about the extent of my recommendation list.
