    I really like this FanFiction!  It's still pretty early, but it looks like it will go in a fun and interesting direction as long as the author keeps at it.
    Style:  The story follows the MC mostly, with occasional other viewpoints.  Pretty standard, but it works.  I hope it stays this way as it helps keep the story understandable and allows us to learn about the other characters from the MC's perspective.
    Story:  An interesting and unique angle for a SW fanfic.  I like that the MC has cheats, but they don't make life easy for him.  He has to figure out what they are and learn to use them properly, just like a normal person.
    Character:  The author has created an interesting character for the MC, but he didn't stop there.   Several interesting side characters are starting to develop, that I hope to see more of.  I hope the author puts some thought into developing differing personalities.  There are aliens who should have alien perspectives.  SW never really developed that angle, being a different race being a mostly cosmetic choice.  Don't be afraid to boldly go beyond the original story world.
    Grammar:  Pretty good.  There were some slight punctuation issues up to this point in the story, but the author is aware of them and will hopefully be able to improve going forward.  Even without any improvement, the grammar is still better than at least 50% of the other works on this site.

    An enjoyable Star Wars SI, set before even Yoda’s time makes for a highly accessible Star Wars fic. I think it portrays the world and charters native to that world really well, develops characters and relationships in a grounded and memorable way, and gives a crisp sense of progression with just the right amount of setbacks and bottlenecks that Des overcomes. I wish the author would go for more cheap laughs though, it works pretty well with Des as a kid, but if he doesn’t start cracking bad jokes soon he might start to feel kinda dull. Like a vegetable trudging through a new galaxy. Though the author’s ability to pack some gravitas into a few particularly grave moments definitely counters that point so… idk. I really like it so far tho, and will keep reading despite the complaints coming from the dark side (of my sense of humor).

    I like this story. Always want to read new views on how the force works.
    The exploration is really good, and the MC's finding his own path through the force gives a sense of building something extremely great. Let's see what weird powers and things he figures out along the way.
    Also, I get the impression that this is more of an exploration story of Star Wars, which I feel is often ignored. It's cool when a character is the strongest force user; I would like that here, too. But I get the feeling he wants to explore and not fight, actually live life, instead of always striving for something. I also looks forward to seeing what gets in his way. I hope it's more like The Mandalorian with a small story instead of a great war, though.

    Good story, the timeline almost looks to be during the brotherhood of darkness era, but I just can't figure it out with the clues you've given.  Can't wait for the next chapters where we can hopefully learn more about the universe at large.  Also I like how you obscured the talents he got when he was reborn, making him learn things s he goes like a real jedi, just a more mature mind

    Really enjoying this take on a Star Wars universe, so far the MC isn't over powered and the characters are well written. This story seems to be on a trajectory where the character will explore the force and the universe, which I hope that the writer maintains. Not overpowered battle maniac so far!
    But we'll see how the author develops their work and ultimately they should write how they want to! Thankyou for posting your story for our entertainment!

    I found this from a recommendation of a recommendation,  but it was worth clicking on. Main character is interesting, and the world seems fleshed out. Not a lot to the story so far, but what is there is well written and worth reading. I'm very interested to see where this goes.

    A nice story with a responsive author.
    The story is set a few thoused (or hundred) years (It plays in the time old republic after the bombing of coruscant and the peace treaty) before the events of the movies (What I really like because that is around the climax of the sith empire.)
    The main characters is very powerful and has an interesting backstory that I anticipate to unravel. He has connections to the dark side and sith alchemy, and dark technology so this story could really twist him. I personally would love to see him find some relics of the infinite empire (rakata) and maybe modified or replicate them at some scale. I dream of what would happen to Kashyyyk if the rakata machine in its dark forest was modified. Or maybe he interacts with the dark realm of space and at some point creates living cyborg creatures as his servants.
    It doesn't matter I am greedily waiting for the next chapter and the ones following that. It's going to be a treat
