Hey, stop talking nonsense! This world is a good one, can you please stop making things more complicated?
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~...
only work ive read to the end upon starting to dislike it alot as i was reading it. ive read it first at hope that itll improve and then i hate-read it to be able to dis-recommend it with sufficient... expertise, if u will. what did i dislike so much about it? at first it was ok. system etc, op vibe\direction. but then it quickly becomes stale with low humor - mc main\signature~ attack is like grabbing balls - he uses an artistic\euthamistic name for it, for it to sound more refined literarily. he has a cheat that can empower him but doesnt use it cuz of pain except when he does - dumb mc or stupidly indecisive~\arbitrary? empowers when plot needs it not when its logical for the char to~... and the plots 'needs' it cuz of poor plotting by author i guess~ (iirc~). other than that introduces a variety of myth settings\creatures and doesnt expand - disgusting lost potential\tag bait? and crude use of em anyway~. other than those - a couple more specific plots - author self inserts as some godlike being ends up being helped by mc or something~... criiinge. also some other messy plots with some evil buddha bs and some world ending bs. also mc once reincarnates to sneak past some barrier but then quickly regains power - example of lost opportunity to slowly gleam a new setting and potentially power system etc and a whole new like cast etc.. well these are the impressions i recall from reading it a long time ago anyway. there were like couple ok\interesting bits like leveling and then tiering up a skill - a body refinment one - titanium demon body. other than that there was something interesting with heavens will? dont recall the details... he was also master of his liniage in a sect which he like didnt develop etc and abondoned it after like making somewhat of a big deal of it? at the begining... anyway this lil bit of cringe was overshadowed by those other disgusting cringe stuff.
the start is a bit messy iirc but overall be it the power system, the power progression, the characters, worldbuilding, plot or action are good-to-great and even overall the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. power-wise the stat is abit slow but its like mc building a foundation for greatness~ ;) - allowing himself to be op at the early-mid tiers and super op at the mid-late tiers - fighting angels as a mortal and great gods as a transcendent~. it also has some humor - kinda abit like it was in the legendary mechanic but both more prominent and even abit more refined imho...
