I love everything about the story so far! And I am moved by how the author takes his time to interact with each one of his readers!
The story has a good flow and the characters are just right! It also has a real feeling to it, just like someone telling you about something that happened to them!
I recommend it wholeheartedly!

So the first fourtt chapters are essentialy a prolonged prologue but you wouldn’t know it when bam suddenly the story is going a completely different direction. I can’t wait for more.

This story has a good start and promises to be an intresting story. I look forward to seeing how this new city builder takes shape and how the story will turn out when things really get rolling

Definitely give this story a shot. Starts off with a very interesting hook then goes into the whys of the system. A bit hard to read with all the bold bits but please press through as they are worth reading and the story only gets better.
Oh, and my favourite part, the MC is trope aware and pleasantly snarky.

I always hate it when I catch up on what ever I am reading.
Cause it kinda startles me, i'm like "wait, no, what, there is still more right?".
Thankfully this one isn't on haitus.

This story makes me want to take out my brain and put it in a glass jar right next to my computer.
If there was a general theme it would be being braindead. Everyone being freakin braindead.
"spoiler"
Mc is being hailed as a "genius" for discovering that killing monsters gives exp in a world where humans have existed since nearly 1000 years and you want to tell me that really no one, not a single person has ever figured that one out before ??
If you manage to turn your brain off and just enjoy a story by ignoring its flaws it will be a pretty decent read.
if it were a movie it would be the movie idiocracy

Written as of chapter 26, (Day 3 - Circumstances).
None of what I wrote in the "Issues" section are spoilers, but do reveal a bit so I put them in spoiler tags.
Good:
The writing and formatting are descriptive and consistent.
The setting and background set up are truly excellent. I won't spoil it, but I would recommend writers to read the first ten chapters just to experience it.
The game system is nothing new, but still good.
Issues:
Spoiler: Spoiler
The MC is not an Anti-Hero, very far from it. Unless he changes drastically after chapter 26. So far, he has not shown any anti-hero traits, unless you count the quick adaptation to killing goblins. He has helped humans every chance he has been given by: sharing "advanced" knowledge to help save lives even though it will make them rely on him and stop him from doing what he wants, trusted every human he has met without any suspicion whatsoever, and even risked his life rescuing the damsel in distress.
Outside of fighting, the MC is an easy-going, brain-dead dunce. Other than using basic knowledge and scheming in, or planning for, fights, the MC doesn't use his head at all. Really, not even a bit. He complains about his lack of common knowledge, but, other than accepting what others say, hasn't attempted to recitfy this short-coming whatsoever. He knows that his knowledge if far more advanced than those in this world's and that carelessly dropping information could cause trouble, but doesn't think about what he says at all, like a child, a very dumb child. He has knowledge of game mechanics, but, as of yet, hasn't even considered thinking about how to take advantage of that knowledge, so it isn't an advantage and is only used to make sarcastic comments.
The grammar is wonderful other than the author's use "is" by itself. E.g. "Is an idiot." instead of, "He is an idiot." There is no use of he, she, that, this, etc. before the word "is". It is completely standalone and unless I missed something in grammar class, then ther

The first part is pretty good but beware the walls of text and straight ripping of civ mechanics.
