- Empress LakeRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5My rating, atleast to me, hold solid. There are many negative reviews for this, although I admit some have valid points, most are just downplaying the actual book for the 'dirtier' tone of this. Yes, there are some (quite a few) bits in the book where characters mention or have some slightly sensual tones, but the actual book itself is decent. The concepts is more original than 90% of works on here. It's good, and I feel like more than most people would enjoy the read, even if some people would get slightly annoyed with grammar and whatnot sometimes.
- Operation TrebuchetRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0The thing that most reviews criticize about the story is that there is too much needless sexual stuff. However if you enjoy a bit of sexual overtones this story isn't actually bad. I think alot of reviewers are making a mountain out of a molehill and ruining the reputation of a decent story.
- L0c4lF0xRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5The story is good but can get a bit annoying to follow (3/5)
The style is fine, I would not recommend any major changes (4/5)
the grammar is not noticeable for any negative thoughts about the book (4.5/5)
The characters are well-developed, but they all seem a bit shallow but not in a selfish way. it's hard to describe, it makes me feel as though when Spoiler:
The first person the system contracts, her lover did not react properly, she kind of fell into depression. That did not match with what the characters personality was.
. (3.5/5)
I would recommend reading it. It can strike someone's interests rather well but overall it's not for me. (3.5/5) - JAM_91Royal Road★★★ 2.5This is a well written story with good grammar and a solid plot, but if you’re looking for a pure story about a system and it’s road to greatness this isn’t for you. Harem and sexual elements are heavily prevalent from early on and doesn’t give alms to the fact that although jack is a reborn human he is a system currently. It is a good story and I have no problems with it or the author but it’s just not for me as I was looking for a novel about a system not another harem battle romance book.
- WiggyRoyal Road★★ 2.0I like the concept, it's a fun idea. But the actual writing sadly leaves a lot to be desired, there are recurring issues with punctuation and just, awkward, stilted language used. I've seen worse on this site, but I think I'm going to have to give this story a pass for now. Hopefully with some more experience the author will be able to improve and fix the issues.
- SomeNerdRoyal Road★★ 2.0Honestly, I was willing to tolerate the harem elements, until the most recent chapter, where the protagonsit started 'converting' a character... by spanking her. This character, by the way, was outright hostile towards the protagonist just before. There was no buildup to it, no character development. Just 'bitchy girl gets punished, pisses herself from it while obviously getting off.'
Keep in mind, by 'outright hostile', I don't mean slightly annoyed, this character legitimately tried to kill the main character, and it just gets waved off.
Other 'plot points' include the system's first user being molested by a machine for a power up, resulting in magical nipple piercings, among other things, a slutty paladin randomly coming across the main character when he descends to the mortal realm (despite the implication of nobody else being around for miles)... the chapters that don't focus on Jack are only slightly better, but not by much.
Overall, it feels like the writer started making an interesting, compelling story, then got impatient, cut out a bunch of character development, and stuffed it full of smut. - neko123Royal Road★★ 1.5Disclaimer: This won't be an in-depth analysis of the story or even an overly thought out review.
The story is overall well written with solid grammer and the author seems to be decently skilled in writing stories. But the first 20 Chapters or so have almost nothing to to with Jack (the system) and the focus lies more on its users'.
New readers should be aware that the 'Harem' and 'sexual context' tags are not just for an eventuality in the future but seem to be one of the main concepts of this story.
While a lot of people might like this stuff, it is quite the deal-breaker for me who expected a story from the perspective of a system (Especially because the concept is quite engaging and the first 1-3 Chapter hinted at something great).
If the focus will later return to Jack I will update this review if my opinions change. - AaronoraARoyal Road★★ 1.5It reads like a teenagers daydream or something. Grammar is mediocre and seems like it was written on a phone or tablet with many obvious errors. Things turn sexual way too often and it really hurts anything this author is trying to accomplish. Sex is great and all, but it reads terribly. If I ever have to read the phrase 'wet cave' again I am going to blow my brains out. Premise was interesting, but it was ruined at the hands of a horny teenager.
- kingawesomeRoyal Road★ 0.5It was a waste of time reading this one it is good clickbait.. It is like the author just made a damn story for all perverts
- a_man_in_blackRoyal Road★ 0.5Updated my review as the story improved!
I've never seen a story from the point of view of the system itself. New and interesting ideas are rare gems in the LitRPG scene, and this one had all the makings of becoming one of them. Told as seen through the eyes of Jack, the sentient "system" which is the backbone trope we all love so much here on Royal Road. I gotta give a full five stars just for that story alone, as such a seed had the potential to be something quite grand.
Four stars for characters, as there's a pretty good supporting cast as Jack finds people in shitty situations and helps them out. His requirements for offering usage of his system powers are simple. It basically boils down to him asking his users to grow in strength and to try not to be total dicks, and he wants to be "good" so he keeps an eye out for kind souls. From the poverty-born girl attempting a dungeon in order to save her mother from a vicious neighborhood thug lord to a valiant maid who gave herself up to save the princess she served, an angsty boy out to save his sister, and a pair of gender confused thieves trying to learn how to do the right thing and the succubus madame trying to do right by her girls. Gods both good and evil, and for once a world that isn't just all grimdark and gloom. The pieces are there, ready and waiting to be assembled into a masterpiece.
Instead the story takes every opportunity to devolve into some of the most absolutely immature and cringe-inducing smut I've ever read. Your grandmothers secret collection of harlequin romance novels would take one look at the sex scenes in this story and then laugh the ink off their pages. Twilight would look down on this romance with a contemptuous sneer fit to make Alan Rickman sit up from the grave and salute. Every sexual encounter is awkward, and not in an endearing way. I guess the author is a fan of the anime style hesitation and embarrassment about sexuality, but fails to realize that those tropes only really work whe
