This webnovel is over 3000 chapters and should be less than half of the way done considering the main character still hasnt embarked on his grand voyage. Exlor's writing is filled with excessive dialog, detail and explanation. It's clear this saga is just meandering without a clear timeline and will inevitably take 10 years to write or eventually go on permanent hiatus due to a loss in popularity or author's eventual loss of interest. Getting invested would be a mistake.

Mtl trnslation, dont let couple chapter deceive you it keeps getting worse noticeably if I may add... Just can't believe that Webnovel allowed to such thing to happen... Good story but it got ****ed beyond reason with mtl translation...
interesting concept but mc is so boring that it hurts.. he doesn't want to fight or even learn fighting and thinks he can just stay peaceful and cultivate
A classic but interesting novel. I haven't read much so I can't tell for sure but, there are two problems I'd like to criticize. First, it is a really serious problem. Author has a problem conveying information. There is almost no basic information and MC is knowing people or things he's never been in contact with. For example, we know amlost nothing about the game at all. We only get to know that mc's profession is a tanky melee type. We don't know any other information about the professions at all. And maybe because he think it may become annoying, author didn't show mc's status at the beginning. We don't know what status the game use, original status, or how much increase per lvl. Nothing. Nad when authir feels like it, he suddenly show the status and says mc's status is really incredible. We don't know how to compare at all. Although mc's status is not shown, almost every piece of equipment has their status explained. And mc started saying things like "Wow. This lvl5 blue equipment has tge status of a lvl10 equipment which noone has ever seen before." and "Wow, these monsters, even pro gamers may not be able to fight as well as me" when he's clearly not in the industry. In short, author hides all info and only says "Hey, my mc is really awesome." The second thing should be the balance. While I know that this novel is all about mc's picking up op equipment, he got a third lvl out of the five lvls of equipment currently known at lvl5 and that's not even a one time thing. He's destroying the game balance from the very start. Unless it is a solo mcvs guilds, there can be almost suspense at all with this kind if balance. Dispite the criticism, this is still a pretty interesting book. So, I still recommend trying out.
End of Volume 1 review:Both setting and world building are intriguing and told in a way that blends in the story. Slowly building up everything along the plot and not impeding the flow of the storytelling.The plot is well thought and well planned from the beginning to end. So far the whole volume is cohesive and not episodic. Every detail is connected and not wasted.Characters are always thinking, plotting and motivated in each of their own. They don't feel like being there just to prove that the MC is awesome. You can feel that each of them have their own story to tell. They have their own purpose and their actions tell you who they are.MC's character, background and motivations are well established. He isn't bumbling around doing stuff just because. He is the calculative and plotting type MC and not a typical "goody two shoes trust everyone has a good side" MC. He learns to fight in the new power system and doesn't really defeat higher tier opponents through brute force. In a way the power tier system is maintained and he doesn't defeat enemy just because of system. The system helps him grow stronger faster than normal but so far that's it.Great web novel so far.
