    The Story setting is really good , these kind of Writers are really rare to see who go beyond the usual cliche kind of setup , one best Writer i can relate to is Andur although he is not in that level yet
    But i can say for sure that this has potential to be on that level.The uniqueness of the Character is good and the build of character is also out of the box.
    But i am curious about the story as to where this will  lead too.
    PS: Hey this is a great Story man i do hope that you will finish this and wont rush the story take your time but do finish it

    I really don't get what people think is original or fun about this story (please take that 'original' tag off if that pertains to the story and not whether or not it's based off of a real book/story). I mean, sure it's fun if it's the first of its kind you read, but when you read as many fictions with the same storyline as this (guy/girl dies and gets turned into a monster with 'special' branching paths for rank-up), you see that it's all the same and pretty bad. Is this story bad? No, not really, not by the standards of this website at the very least. Is this story good? Hell, if you actually think this is decent reading material you must've never read a real book before. Like most fictions on this website this is a pure 'filler' that will keep you occupied without having to think too much.
    The second thing that bugs me about this story is the grammar.Just like 'One_who_loved' said, there are lots of little mistakes that could easily be fixed by an editor or some self-study by the author. I'm not saying that people whose native language isn't English shouldn't write fictions, but at least grasp the basics of grammar like plural and possessive form before you start writing.
    The third thing that bugs me is the fact that the story started with something 'serious' (you really didn't make the rape and murder seem serious, but whatever) and then turns into... a joke? No, even if it was a joke it would be a really bad one... I don't know exactly how many chapters later, but after having his wife and child killed the MC kills one of his friends/acquaintances in cold blood and then proceeds to kill the guy's grieving girlfriend... He carried a hate deep enough to turn undead by losing his family, but then does the same thing (without rape) to someone he knows... If you actually care about writing then you should really work on your characters and how to express their emotions and the gravitas of their feelings and situations. I'm not expecting a depth like something from a

    Starts off as if it will actually be good then status screen and inane power ups everywhere. No tension as he is gonna win every damn time. MC became a moron as he became an undead. His hypocrisy is quite outstanding as the reason for his being undead he goes and does worse to his own village as well. His "hate" becomes extremely vague and is just hate... at what? Does the mc even remember? You cannot just hate. Hate has a target and direction. Certain actions lack any logic.

    CURRENT CHAPTER DURING REVIEW: 8
    With a main character who is a mix of pokémon with its evolution, Han Jihan (from the webtoon ‘The Gamer’) with its game like features and Tatsuya (from ‘Mahouka’) with its inconsistencies, Rise of the Lich is a nondescript talking heads’ story with no reason to be or foreseeable objective.
    Style
    Written in a script-like, first person mainly style, Rise of the Lich makes a terrible job of entertaining, or even amusing us with his writing. The chosen style is terrible for novels and the complete lack of descriptions make it even worse. The lack of experience from the author is visible all over the place due to the main perspective chosen. The repetition of pronouns and lack of sentence structuring variation make for a tiring and repetitive read.
    Story
    The story, as of chapter 8, lacks both foundation and planning. Foundation for the backstory is superfluous and planning because there’s no objective. As is, there is no reason to keep reading it since all the progress is the main character leveling up and killing people for no reason. There is nothing driving him or his actions. He simply does them on a whim.
    Grammar
    There are many grammatical errors throughout every chapter. There are problems with usage of punctuation, usage of words and a very limited vocabulary. However, it’s readable. It’s by far better than the worst thing I’ve read on RRL. Grammar-wise, that is.
    Character
    As stated before, the characters are shallow and nondescript (like everything else). They also don’t have defined characteristics or personality, making them completely unstable and impossible to relate or care. They also don’t follow the rules set by the author, like the main character who is supposed to have no emotions, showing strong emotions all the time.
    Overall, not a bad fiction as first fictions go. But I’d recommend for the author to read some real novels and create a base for his writing. Things that aren’t from RRL or translations. Go for real books.
