Hey, stop talking nonsense! This world is a good one, can you please stop making things more complicated?
add tags like special ability /devouring [evolution] and kingdom building. maybe evil mc~
setting dnd like but many things are not like dnd and vastly different like magic easily controlled and varried and genius loli side kick magician? unclear how magic is used and Mc can't use magic (yet~ ch100~?) and magic's mechanics aren't explained or tiered/ranked yet some spells from dnd that somehow it seems either mc knows or narrator just blurts out randomly casually bringing out exposition that's not clear whether Mc knows. early on also alot of arcs with side char pov while Mc sleeps. along with early time skips? I change my rating form inititla OK brain rot passtime 4* to 3* (with similar caviats/descriptors~)
seemingly alot of action with seemingly not much meaning or greater goals/targets/purpuse or even a sense of just progression or ambition~... it more fun grinding minerals in wow - atleast u know ull use em to smith cool stuff, kinda thing, here it's like eating for eating's sake etc, no soul. also little/no depth to power system - nothing interesting... guess I'll be reducing rating to 2* soon...
Oh also tons of names for irrelevant unmemorable chars, including antagonists seemingly. also most names feel cringe including Mc - dragon called Otto... other names are westernish but some nick names are Chinese ughh
edit I repent so hard go back in my word-explanation after edit note down below
4 stars: so far, start is decent. not great but like decent with no major negatives, slowly prepping potential op elements - to my liking - rather than some bombastic promises in the, like, foreword/summary/blurb~... and then lame start with like some cringey ass opressed identity. here he starts low but not like opressed by anyone and with a light heart finds like job and steady path forward and slowly the op aspects of his nature as transmigrator are shown - if not in the clearest way, perhaps? or best? or it isn't all thaaat great/op - but that makes it better imho - balance - work for op, not have it bestowed upon u by plot[Armour]/cheat[system]~ or something of the sort...
edit so nvm he gets taken for a fat pig in school and gets exploited by some spoiled Lil brat of a girl that thinks she's awesome and an arrogant teacher that for some reason follows some kinda totally illogical class hate against rich people or something and milks Mc for money - and ive looked later chaps - Mc seem to not take revenge and just makes friends with her or some shit?? idk didn't read details anyway. so for me my personal minimum standard for such early pressing chars is if Mc doesn't personally atleast refine that person's soul into a soul lamp and tortures it for eternity casually within five chapters of me getting angry and frustrated about that I probably ban all author forever since. that's my mood atm anyway lek fuck u author kys
started reading. so far it's like, ok, like, u know, brainrot fanfic that's not bad but not good - doesn't have anything too agregious but nothing to write home about either, or possibly even anything more than 'decent'.. there're some elements like introducing unfamiakir characters that im not sure exist in original?. but also introducing side characters that I know and lightly introducing them for the benifit of people that don't know - that's nice. author says it's first work and I guess it shows? depth of character/attitude that Naruto fanfics are often heavy with is absent or almost absent here - there's not Uchiha hatred by Hokage line mentioned or Uchiha arrogance or how Mc is medical ninja and whether anyone in clan has opinion - good or bad - about it... kinda shallow but also maybe it's been overdone in others so author didn't wanna drown in these plots~?... idk
early review - 3* - the premise and cheat are up my alley but reduction of rating for stupid/reckless action by Mc - he's been hit by evil spirit so after he got a tiny bit of strength he goes face it. I would've cultivated considerably more! it's extra bad considering he specifically stated it was super close etc.
additional abit of lesser rating is cuz of how the cheat works - it gives memories which is a small pet peeve of mine (of me disliking it) (atleast make unfertsiang seperate from physical progress! that's so awesome if it is... but it almost never is! LAZY fkin guys...)
update - the cheat is even less than what I hoped for - only one limit break, it seems? and pretty dull variety wise - super basic/trash knight breathing - same point amount as wizard meditation - 1k. traps is 100. nice that there're other skills than combat~... also Mc has shown catiousness by not revealing his talent - but even not to his father?.. kinda mixed catiousness that's foolishly I think some atleast...
Oh also bunch of "..." & "... ... ... ... /n 'repeat'" - severely hampering tts users! darn u author (just abit..)
at the start atleast: mix of despairing dullness, somewhat cringey cliche setting elements like Sister in trouble, rich young master etc - further against my taste is the urban~ish enviorment that's also not mentioned in genre/tag categories.
will the cheat save me from disgust and despair~?.. well, first the chesty item is not too clear - human emperor banner? active now? huh? the effect - kill people and... what? get stronger? 'higher life level' - what? can u be more specific and detailed and concrete? etc. also suddenly he can slaughter experienced martial artists like chickens and dogs cuz he [somehow] has a sword and idk managed to kill 1 (for the first time, btw, yea (presumably/implied)) or maybe a couple so he leveled up, I guess and suddenly became super strong in whatever u clearly specificed way he does?
then after annoyance of like lack of clarity of power system/cheat the oppressive social atmosphere (in the already disliked by me setting) is like the final nail - or more like smother~...
(read 150ch~) messy/unclear writing. the geography isn't very clear/intuitively explained, which is very important since kingdom/force building seems important. likewise power levels - like wth innate bio level? level 17 young green dragon? +lv5 mage =legendary?? and stronger than actual legendary swordsman? also I entirely missed the part he fought said this swordsman? shows how unclear and unremarkable/unmemorable the action and characters are! only reason this isn't 1 star or even maybe if I could 0 star is cuz the in depth details of the power system on a fundamental level and it's research are kinda interesting~... but like almost barely so~... cuz it also suffers from the messy/unclear writing, some... also cheat is kinda weak and while potentially like interesting seems to also like help in research of that direction? but it like switches direction from gene nodding magical abilities to servants and maybe one's self it become more isoteric and removed from cheat at high level thus making cheat kinda lame/secondary (or like less than secondary - teriery or quadrutiery even~...)
nothing interesting. cheat is op and lazy and not really appropriately named. it just gives rewards with no requirements. even a sign in is more 'interferesting' /varried/active~. almost no depth about power system. atleast however far I read. Mc also gets chest genius comprehension but next day he gets it doubled - like what? etc..
pretty good and even my 4 star rating is abit low but well that's like maybe personal specific issues - with over focus on Warhammer yet it not actually being that amazing... as well as stuff being too op at the later stage/s but not really using it as much as possible - maybe? tho still pretty good. like others when super op use 40~50% of their capabilities to go further. here it's like 70~80% - maybe? if I'm being abit kind maybe~?..
well anyway I Def think it's worth some reading. it's abit of a mix of dnd power settings and good gods and mix of Warhammer fantasy settings with evil gods and marauders but the 4 gods aren't like 1 to 1 plus they're in the abyss (dnd~esque) - like the 4 most powerful ones, kinda thing... there're also like some wow - lich king - arthas - setting there among the villains.
used to follow it at the time... decent idea, nice compounding. later the plot seemed to have gotten somewhat messy and also accelerated? I liked the way how the cheat let's him become op at a given level and reinforce foundation and also help with force building - exuding alot of qi for free~...
.
spoiler -
.
upper realm is destroyed - so it peaks when he tried to become immortal
alot of messy and contradictory stuff. the cheat is weird - synthesis. but with books 2 books = 1 double thickness book. but wait he for some reason can absorb it like a skill book in game and gain the knowledge of it. and hey he also got a status bar/data label - whatever. other items cant be absorbed.
other than that he seems to be cautious some times and reckless other - quite contradictory. I thought there gonna be some development arc but then alot if intermixed action. worse there's action that's like told reader but not Mc - among big shots - it's a mess I find hard to follow and didn't bother - it was really too much. other than that also Mc has alot of like stuff that's hard to follow - like his bodily condition etc and improvement of skills? abit unclear in general too let alone being messy/large in quantity later.
world building is nice. politics if not for messy big shots povs seems interesting. power systems - decent+ if not for how messy/unclear Mc abilities details are~...
