I went into this expecting farmer to be a "Bad" (Read Easily exploited) class only made powerful through a mixture of serendipity and the protagonist being "Smart" (everyone else is an idiot).
Instead I got a protagonist with a bad class who only succeeds as far as they do because of themselves, a fair bit of dumb luck sure but luck that doesn't feel like the stars aligning. Tullins achievments feel like the result of his own work that only isn't reached because no one else dared too and few would survive as he did.
The author truly does make the dangers he faces feel like they could very well kill him and holds tension unlike many other novels of the dungeon crawler variety.

I have read three of the four stories R.C. Joshua has written and posted on this site and have enjoyed all of them. This latest one has me thinking of all the ways farming can be used to help someone survive. "Infinite Farmer" has so far been a ride with ups, downs and swerves. I want to read more but have to be patient. I can't think of much else to say so I'm just going to give a fact about hats. Did you know that to get your hat size the circumference of your head is measured, that number is then either multiplied or divided (can't remember which) by pie (3.14) and the resulting number is your hat size. Another fact is that there was at least one sailing ship which had a hull covered in copper sheets, to help it glide through the water. Copper was used because it doesn't corrode in sea water like iron. A third fact is that Jack Black's full name is "Thomas Jacob Black" and his mother is an aerospace engineer who worked on the apolo mission and helped create the Abort - Guidance - System which is what allowed the astronauts to come back safely.

I have seen much bemoaning at the systems not allowing itself to be exploited, but this is the first time I've seen a story do this. It adds a refreshing feeling and may help stave off that stale power treadmill that is rife in lesser litrpg fictions.
The premise while no longer that fresh any more is presented and executed very well. I have high hopes for this story.

Know it all stubborn MC, get his "wish" (amped by *redacted*), gets screwed over by *redacted*, being farmer in a dungeon... How to cope in the Dungeon that is for "the elite" unprepared? What good is a plant if it's not killing sentience? Read and find out!
Why so much stars? "Bribed" by the author... What I get from the author dunno yet..

Tye story does a great job of making the system character feel like an individual with personality and goals while leaving its true morality largely ambiguous. Spoiler warning as revealed later systems are generally met gains for society and are meant to bring power safety and ability to people but the system from the mcs world has been almost completely unused and is basically starving doing whatever it can to get just a little power to do what it needs to do. Since even if it's true goal was the protection of humanity or to create a utopian civilization it's actions up to this point are still consistent with an individual pushed to their limits the morality of the system while at least a little grey is left up to interpretation and investigation the same with the infinite dungeon.
End spoiler
Mcs powers are the most interesting take on plant powers i have seen and remain effective and gimmicky while actual op Ness is countered by adjudication which is really well handled in my opinion

Only a few chapters released so far but I greatly enjoyed it. I am excited to read more chapters and see where we end up. I can't think of any criticism as the chapters as well polished, and it is too early in the story for any critiques about plot or characters.TLDR - I love this story and will be reading each chapter as it is released. :)

When I first read of Tulland, I thought 'poor boy' and simply kept reading. His class did not turn out to be a swordsman or pirate.
This caught my interest because of how well the story is written, with higher quality authors tending to stick to making characters with classes which are more popular and combat focused in my experience.
Luckily, I've managed to find this gem and follow along the last few months. It's been pleasant. The storyline progresses smoothly, I have not been thrust into a chapter where I have no idea what is going on.
Grammar has not been as issue, and I think the System and the side characters are also well done.
I am no hard critic, simply a casual reader, but I enjoy everything about this story. I do not see any flaws in it besides the fact that I cannot read more until the next chapter is released! I am reading chapters every day they are released.
Hope the story continues for a long time!

An excellent if you enjoy the Hero’s Journey story archetype, teens getting a chance to truly learn who they are, and challenges that bring internal growth. This seems to be a YA novel and it is delectable. There are no easy handouts and robotic systems in this story, so forget about this story if you prefer to not see the MC get nerfed.
I am reviewing after enjoying 67 chapters of this story so far, and having read the author’s note, where all I can say is that this story is a great read. Some of the 5 star reviews reflect the feelings I have about this story, and a few mention my favourite parts of this story.
The characters are well fleshed out, and the dialogue reflects the mentalities of them.
The style is descriptive, somewhat expository, and it is clear, smooth with each detail layering on top of each other as the story develops.
The story seems to be about growing up and developing your own strengths as a person within the world. The Infinite, System and Church are powers who have great impact on Tulland, but Tulland’s response towards them are the most compelling. How Tulland searches for the truth, and comes to his own conclusions of his control over his life, is what keeps me coming back for each update. He can find the solution to the problem or blame the powers outside of his control. Tulland’s stubbornness and ingenuity is built upon from the wise sages in his life, and his true self persevering through each level. The struggle and pain is where true strength comes through; where we truly grow into ourselves without the handouts we desire.
The author has a good cache of loyal readers to catch the minor typos and errors which he seems to acknowledge.

Ah, the sweet memory of a hero with no attack that was unpleasantly fond of slave contracts.
But ay, it's a good story so far, this one that is. Im glad it actually focuses on farming in a very litrpg way. Hopefully this one dosent devolve into a half dozen irrelevant mechanics that take away from the flow.
