Living a Long Life as a Legend (more abandoned than a victorian orphan)

Description

Reincarnating into a game-like version of a medieval magical world was fine and all. A good blend of two enjoyable tropes. Lock wished he'd been born with a bunch of cheats sometimes, sure, but he could settle with being functionally immortal by abusing the system as well. All rights to the art belong to Stefan Koidl, you can find his workshere

Pretty good, the MC is coming out very nicely, not a holy banana or a psychotic one. His motivations are slowly uraveling, and the system being present in the everyday life of everyone is a nice and refreshing take on an overused thematic. Just wish the chapters were longer.

Interesting ideas about someone from modern earth who reincarnated into a Lit-RPG world.
The small amount of Statuswindows are refreshing compared to standard novels where every move is displayed, counted and shown.

I really like how he did't explain how the MC was reincarnated and didn't make any flashbacks about it, youl gradually start to make up his previous life from his thoughts as he lives his current one, which is a really good way to do it in my opinion.
I find the style good though slightly boring at times.
The characters feels very real. The MC is a callous and pragmatic young(old) man so he can be easily classified as a villain but he has his hang ups and morals, and is more or less affected by other people, like any other human.
The story is still in the early phase so i may add things later.

I like this story alot can not wait to see were it goes next
The character is interesting (he has a very pragmatic/ outlock on things often at the expense of those closest to him)
The story has very easily observed arcs, each arc has there own more or less self contained plot with plenty of smal details about the world and the mysterious past of the main charecter all leading towards a satisfying conclusion.
The grammar is probably even better than my own os i will just give it 5 stars.....

Other then the cringe weebness this story is well done one of the best ones I read in a while. The only issue is it drawn out but I enjoyed every moment.

Bor902 is a good writer. His work reads well and is interesting. It’s not dry and it genuinely leaves you wanting more; an author to watch out for, follow, and join before he’s the next big thing. Amazing.

Came over from your other work where I left ya a nice long ass message. Again, this is a great start a super interesting take on the experience gain genre. I suppose the reason this never really came up in the past was because most of times by leveling in other stories or games one becomes functionally immortal, but I suppose that everyone wants to go out on their own times, at their own time. Another great piece and another thing to add to my reading list.

This story definitely needs more views, beautifully written and the linguistics the author uses to define things is truly appreciated. Perspectives and POVs are done in a very intricate yet novel way. Overall, worth praise and investing time.
The character lock still needs polishing hence a star lesser, and at times certain character details seem to be forced or patched upon. Will change it in future if I feel its improved.

Considering the vast majority of series on this site revolve around violence and sex, genuine pathos is not something frequent visitors would expect but that's exactly what you get here: a realistic portrayal of what it means to lose a family member and how it can affect your own view on death. Now, there's plenty of great action and monster-slaying as well. Don't misunderstand. But there's more here than just that. Give it a try, I think you'll like it.

A pragmatic, but civilized mc. The characters are the best part of this novel. The worldbuilding has a nice spin on it. I especially like the mc's mentality. The prose is also nice. I've been looking for a novel like this for awhile and I'm glad I finally found one.
Give it a read.

She would complete her assignment, and try to never interact with him again.
Well, there was one scenario where it could all go wrong. She could be right. Someone could be bleeding out in the next room this very moment, and he had said that he'd release her from her obligation if that were indeed true. But the chance of him being wrong... He almost giggled."
I swear I've read this before somewhere.
