Hero Hunter: A superhero litRPG
Community Rating
Description
“In a world of heroes, one man lives to watch them fall.”
Terrax Prime is one of the safest places in the galaxy, a world-spanning metropolis built on the foundations of order, justice and law. Terrax also happens to be a birthplace of heroes; humans born with powerful, world-altering super-powers. In service to the prime government, these heroes work to keep the streets of Terrax safe, acting as the world's super-hero police force... or so it seems. Terrible secrets lie deep within the core of Terrax Prime’s hero program, and one man will do whatever he can to bring those secrets to the surface...
Enter Aiden Grant, the Hero Hunter.
Plagued by the scars of his past and armed with an arsenal of weapons and the augmented reality app Vella, Aiden will take the fight to the shadowy leaders of Terrax Prime, even if he has to kill every last hero in his way.

- SocarmelaRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Love a good super-hero story! Its still early but I love encountering each new hero and learning their power sets. Cant wait to see what else the MC pulls out of his sleeve or why he has such a hatred for the heroes.
- HaterbaiterRoyal Road★★ 2.0I'm ashamed to admit that I liked this at first. At first, I thought this was going to be a good superhero story, and I'm an absolute sucker for those types of stories, but it was about a villain, which I liked even more. I love Villain protagonists, I love superhero stories, and I love litPRGs, so I should instantly fell in love with this, and I did... before the plot started falling apart. (I quit at Chapter 16)
Style:
It pretends to be a litRPG but it's not, it has a personal AI that gives information about the targets, sure. That's it. That's all the "litRPG" in there, it doesn't warrant the tag. An "HP" bar and a list of superpowers don't make it a litrpg.
First of all a vitality bar? Sure, you don't need to explain how it works, no one will question it, I didn't even though it shouldn't make sense in a world filled with superpowers (regeneration, altered anatomy, etc.). Although most people won't notice it at first, it's certainly a plot hole, although, it's not the biggest one ever, so I won't take off any points there. Superpowers can probably be found on the internet and are very unreliable, glad you acknowledged that, because it makes sense that not all powers would be displayed.
Evil organization in charge of the heroes... cliche, Supervillain that works for said organization... cliche, Organization is somehow in control of the world... cliche, social caste DESPITE the presence of powers (and not BECAUSE of the powers) yeah no, not buying it. Cliches aren't bad, but when you have so many of them, ON TOP OF something so unbelievable as an undercity it becomes a problem.
Grammar:
I noticed quite a few spelling errors, and I'm not rereading this to check for any other errors. It's readable, and that's about all I can say, didn't have anything particularly bad about it, nor is it praiseworthy because I could still notice them (spelling errors, some commas were missing, etc.) in almost every chapter.
Story:
The story is basically some antihero going around and
