I just started reading, but I'm already excited to see where this story will take us! It is absolutely fantastical and very much worth taking the time to check out. It's a nice fresh take on this Genre. Blake has really taken his creativity and run with it. I can't wait to read this to the end.

The characters were amazing. “The plot had so many twists and turns I couldn't put my phone down.” I don't usually read action genre but this story captivated me. It's not boring to read and it's actually gives me goose bumps lol. Very professional and the writer must be very imaginative!! I enjoyed it tremendously!

I found the book to be very enjoyable. It had some familiar facets of the LITRPG genre, but with an interesting trait for the MC. The author has said it's one of their first works, and I'd say it's a good one so far!
Would definitely recommend to my friends!

Some stories have such a boring generic setting, and at first that's what this appears to be. I don't want to spoil anything, but want to say it looks like things get much more interesting. Definitly worth a read, and I am very much looking forward to seeing how things play out.

Have read through chapter 17 and really enjoying it. It moves along pretty smoothly and while it has an action tag it has definite plot threads that can be developed for more drama, intrigue or base buildling if the writer desires. The characters are fleshed out enough to keep interest and engagement.
Give it a whirl!

So I just binged this, and I had things I was planning to say, which can be summed up as "it's alright, kinda generic but kinda fun", but in ch 15/16 the story takes a sudden turn into nearly a different genre. I was reading a high fantasy, gameified, litrpg with dungeons and loot and now it's secretly maybe-sci-fi but also maybe-cultivation?
It's not just the genre shift, but also how sudden it is, and frankly that I don't think it's done very well. The story was getting kinda interesting (if full of tropes), but now it's significantly less so. I also think this part passed my threshold for how lucky a protagonist can get before it completely shatters any immersion as well as my interest in reading further.
So as the description states, this story takes off with the protagonist getting a cool, neat ability that makes him special. Fine, that's what makes him worth writing a story about. That ability leads to various other things, so I won't count those as separate "lucky breaks" as it were. In ch16 though, suddenly a not-AI (but really talks like one) that calls people "meat sacks" tells us that everyone is getting fewer stats per level than they should, fixes that for the MC, upgrades the MCs trait, let's him learn skills without skill gems (which no one else can do), and now the MC is learning maybe-cultivation. The genre is now a mess and the MC, who had always had a faint smell of mary-sue to him, is now fully in wish-fulfillment territory.
I think there's an interesting story to be told here, maybe even one that pulls in sci-fi and cultivation elements and shifts to town management or whatever this is going to end up being. But the execution is very flawed. I would say the first 14 chapters could use some work to make the MC and world feel more real/rational or at least to make the MC a more interesting character, but I think the whole thing that happened in the last few chapters needs a lot of changes (and could probably use some foreshadowing, or a sl
