- AannddiiRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Looks good needs a bit of spicy skills it's like a stew that is only missing a few ingredients the ingredients being some spices salt pepper bell pepper powder onions something like that it's a great story that is pretty good but me and my smooth brain have some problems and understand some sections so maybe I just missed the plot or or it's a bit bland but the world is vast and the story is is a good explanation for what's going on on it's going very deep into details but maybe a little bit too detailed which make some sections confusing so if you're going to scroll down and look at the reviews I would say to you first read the story after that read the review if you are a person who has done that why are you even reading my comment on the story leave your own review tell the people what you think and if you are the author you know your own story. But that asite the story is pretty good enjoyable and the chapter frequency is great and the story made yesterday a better day the idea behind the story is a good one but there are a lot of stories out there that are very similar in the theme after this point I can tell if I made mistakes because this right now this just doesn't list the words I am typing for some reason anyway I'm going to continue I personally like this stuff but it's up to the next person to say that for themselves how they like the story or disliked anyway I'm going to get some sleep
- BiorrRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The writing is good, with pretty decent editing. Scene descriptions are crisp. Dialogue varies between decent and good. The fight scenes are exciting and competent.
Characters and their motivations are still a bit two dimensional but that is something that looks to be evolving at a realistic pace as the story progresses.
The action starts quick at the expense of it's premise being a bit flimsy at this point. However, the writer has been addressing this with the occasional POV change.
The main character, and the main POV is written pretty well. He has alluded history and fairly realistic motivations. However, while not dumb, his decision making is fairly poor which he makes up for in raw combat skill. He is not a social or tactical genius but a very good vrmmo swordsman.
The story writing is heavily influenced by Sword Art Online, but so far the author has dodged some of its more cringey tropes. With the exception of writing yet another filthy Dex build as the main character. -10 points from Griffindoor. I look forward to seeing how the story progresses and the author making up for this terrible transgression.
