Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread

Niki still has the position that he won't go past NS because the Cultivation world will be too easy for mc due to mc fast growth there
Yes but I meant in regards to characters like Yue Yan. Why would he make a character of CF realm which MC can reach ingame and make that character's strength actually be 2 realms above and unable to enter POMA too? Doesn't that mean despite MC reaching the peak of CF before Yue Yan advances to NS, their strength difference would still be the same as it was when MC was a PH and Yue Yan was a CF?
 
Lol Niki saw Ai, an actual wholesome good character and fridged her. He lied out of his teeth saying Yue Yan is a saint character when this is how she is lol.

It doesnt help that she's stronger than MC too lol. Imagine having an argument with her and she pulls this card like she did in the update.

This is equivalent to saying "youre jobless so stfu"
ai??? lol ALL of them are a**

Yue yan will grow in power ofcourse get a big Boost when she goes NS and best most soul convergence and some mortal severing.

It's an excuse pretty much the fact that yue yan has peers or how yue fang would also he an op mfer should give mc plenty of Rivals they get more resources than mc while mc will get decent stuff plus the fact many realms will have these freaks so mc should always have people who are op as hell and the fact that so many old *** immortals would want to kill mc if anything bro this story is way better than normal plot of progression mc will grow super fast but one mis step he is dead so he has to keep growing that fast.
None of it matters tho as mc will not get past NS

Can no diff most of NS only people she can't are folks who are freaks there ,can also win again most of Soul metamorphosisView attachment 34091
And can beat 50 percent of Soul Convergence at CF lol and is easily top 15 CF in the universe all others are also god kids or close to them meaning they all could be neck and neck and older than her too but yeah those top 15 CF doing damage till soul convergence resources really help I guess.
Genuinely ridiculous, tf is he thinking with these numbers.

It would be fine if he didn't give the worst excuse of mc having it easy post NS and it is why he isn't doing it when the real reason is he just doesn't like WU fraud lol all those freaks with God backing will always be a challenge for mc as mc doesn't have the same backing and then Immortals who already have beef with mc it would make for a good plot mc growing fast but having enough challenge and any misstep or laziness means you will die.

Yes she can I mean look what he said 100 vs 10k lmaoo

It's been awhile since I've been in such shock. Like as far as Xianxias are concerned MC's fighting one million stages above them isn't very uncommon or anything like that, but I thought poma was less crazy.

Even then If it were just one Major stage I'd be surprised, but I'd let it go soon enough...this is hella crazy though. Ruo has officially been dethroned as heavens favourite.

Ruo would do the same with similar backing btw she would only do worse under a weaker backing.So yeah a great backing means ruo will be one of those freaks only.Plus Ruo's luck is Godly to the point finding a direct counter to yue yan is quite possible for her too.
That said yue yan's experience and field work is what makes her likely win against a ruo who gets a similar backing.So neck and neck but getting experience/skill diff Unless ruo finds a beat yue yan tech cuz of luck lol.

Ruo finding a direct counter 😂. The heavens really are the ultimate excuse for everything when it comes to Ruo. She'll just stumble across a treasure that will propel her forward by two major stages or something.
 
I hope it's something substantial. Cause if the MC has to be ' ready ' for it or the ' world is in such a dire situation it cannot be put off ' means a just a goddamn letter or trinket I'm gonna crash out.

Chao stocks need to go up immediately, and this is his chance.
My guess is it is some means of contacting their grandfather, since the only scenario I can see the MCs mother wishing for them to reach out to her father is if the world is ending.

I really hope Yue Yan isn't like under 50 or something. I understand she has big backing and lives in a proper cultivation world and all but it would seriously be annoying to see Yue Yan is both young af and strong af. I can't accept the excuse that MC will easily bypass everyone as soon as they leave poma since Niki is not going to write MC's story after they leave poma. Statements are unsatisfactory if it can't be backed up.

She likely is the younger ones between the top 15 CFS tbh plus these people are getting all those pills and drugs since birth even Ruo gets such a boost because of the early drugs and all so I wouldn't be surprised if yue yan is young as hell lol.Clan's backing, her father being Immortal emperor, freak talent herself and then having sovergien's backing gotta remember being in sovergien's harem alone is better than being an immortal Emperor lol so just his backing is game changer ,plus the fact yue yan gets the most experience because of her job and her own interest going from World to world.
But Yeah no point in thinking about what mc does because WU fraud isn't doing jackshit till the time we get to play.

There goes any possibility of an equal relationship with Yue Yan by gaining her respect through beating her *** when we get to CF, I guess. Wu Fraud is going to be her footstool until the end of the story LMAO

Nah if mc isn't a cu*t then you will have a good relationship too especially as a good mc she isn't arrogant lol she knows how mc is working with barely anything so she will respect the mc lol.Now evil MC's tho or MC's who beef with her for no reason can't really expect her to respect you when you antagonise someone lol.
Plus yue yan goes from worlds to World on daily lol you can't really expect to beat someone who is working so hard lol gotta be the most hard working talent lol.Freak talent,clan backing,Fathe's backing, Sovergien's backing, extremely high experience who knows how many tricks and things she learns from weaker Worlds where people have no choice but to make powerful techniques instead of just maxxing out stats so all that knowledge she is getting.

She demands an apology from us for defending her brother from her. She is non cooperative if we dont agree with her views despite being good. And how tf are we gonna romance her? Is it gonna be 100 years of talking, flirting and sexting through the cultivation version of skype? And even by the point MC leaves poma, she'll still be stronger. She seems exactly like the kind to use her power to have her way if her ego is hurt. She already called MC being weak once for the grave sin of disagreeing with her lmao.

From a world-logic view what you say makes sense, but from a writing view it doesn't.

The cultivation genre is a power fantasy genre with cool powers and hype moments being 98% of what people care about when they want to read a story about cultivation. In a game where the MC is basically meant to be the reincarnation of a god, introducing a character who's so strong and so much above the MC WHILE making them a constant and even a romancable option is just bad writing. It's one thing to have her be a lot stronger then MC but still make it somewhat possible to challenge her, but when you make an essential character so powerful that no matter what the MC would never be able to even fight her fairly in a power fantasy genre, then that's bad writing.
 
I’ve been dying for like 10 minutes straight. Can’t even make a cultivation joke…

Yeah as always Nikki's just buggin bruh. Ruo is extremely easy to hate because he gets to be at the peak of H strength wise while being a LH because of 'Heavens' and 'Artifacts' and 'Dragon Souls' yada yada.

And Niki just looks at the fanbase (maybe he thinks his whole fanbase is like those lobotomites on his discord who never miss a chance to suck off Ruo) and just goes "Yeah, I'd make an even more busted character that directly interacts with the MC and make them an RO."

Idk what he's thinking anymore. Claiming Ruo can low to mid-diff a top tier PH and hurt Xiantians at LH is one thing, but fighting not one, but TWO stages above yourself and no-diffing people at the top of the next stage is just next level wanking.

The only saving grace here is that if we do get to fight Yue Yan at the end of Book 2, he/she will be extremely crippled because of what Niki said about the energy level of the world restricting the power of the monstrous CF cultivators.

But that in itself is just lame asf. It's like beating the poisoned half-dead Blood Hunter. Sure, it's a cool fight, and sure, you do beat someone with better recourses, age advantage and someone who literally hunts Houtians as his past time, but to me at least it felt unsatisfying that even if you choose to just aurafarm and walk up to him and try to beat his *** without poison, Mei still poisons him. Even after the rework.

I'm getting tired of asking the same question over and over again but I'll ask it again - "Why add easier difficulties and a Cheat Mode if you don't account for the player having everything maxed out at any point in time?"

The 3v3 is I think literally the only place where the MC can use everything they have, cause even after the 3v3 there's moments where the maximum possible check basically doesn't do anything except prevent embarrassment.

With a 100 strength check all I get is a line about how Yang Gan just 'feels' my attack, and still get an internal monologue about how the MC is internally anxious and intimidated even when my actual strength is 125 at least with infusions, rings, body refining etc. Currently that's my main problem - the fact that even the highest checks and crit checks for some unknown reason do not account for the actual highest value you can have in a stat.

So if I have 130 strength for example, then why would it only check for 100? Why not 120 or 130? Because that should dramatically change the outcome in my opinion. Since we know that stats aren't linear representations of growth and someone with 75 in strength would absolutely demolish someone with 50 strength in a physical contest, it feels underwhelming when I spend all my Qi and effort on getting a stat to 130 and then still getting the same scene or description as someone with 100 saying something like "Oh yeah you're a monster good on you but I am as well."

I know that it's a massive game and everything and keeping track of how far the player can progress at any given point can be difficult for Niki, but why not just be safe and check for the highest possible natural stat value accounting for maximum amount buffs + max infusion + all the items and pills the MC might have. Or better yet, since he has such a large player-base why not just make a poll about what's the maximum stat value people were able to reach at any given point in time and then just go from there.

Uhh, I feel like a neckbeard just typing this, but damn me oh Heavens if I don't find this game extremely fun for all its faults and want it to be better.
 
seems like I really was dead on thinking that the powercreep will eventually get so bad it'll be staggering, truly what the genuine **** is he thinking with all those random *** comments?, why even bother making stats (that aren't a vague representation of your strength and an actual accurate counter that he himself uses) and martial realms only for him to completely and in utter tastelessness negate it to suck off the newest character he introduces each time, what even is the point of it since the cultivators completely eclipse all the actual troubles of the PoMA world to such a ridiculous degree it erases all stakes knowing there's someone out there who can solve this **** with a slight swish of their pinky finger?, why even bother introducing all those stages and martial artists if you won't actually get to see them for yourself in the book they're actually introduced?, and not to mention, the MC isn't the only one that actually loses from this, EVERYONE in this damn story that isn't a super über cultivator loses off of this, including the actual story itself since this nukes all the premise of stakes or actual excitement in the story knowing that everyone here is a chump in comparison to the newest character he introduces, I'm not sure if he really just unironically bought in the Wu Fraud memes and extended that to everyone in his whole story or if he's really dispassionate off of it and tries to do a switch up because he's bored of writing his older story, I actually don't even know it is so utterly baffling that he decided to nuke his entire story by one singular shitty discord message for all his nucleon-brained patrons, Just. utterly ridiculous.

I think he's realized that he overextended too much with all the difficulties and variation so he's dumping it all late in the game with simpler stat checks, again, not too surprising considering he dumped perks and will likely dump traits and intelligence+charisma stats soon, infusion has been the equivalent of a rat's *** ever since like, the preparation arc pre-tournament and has never done anything notable anyways, I wouldn't be too surprised if he dumps PoMA and decides to do something in vein of that one cultivator WIP he dumped that was set in the heavens, I genuinely want to ask him in person why he keeps adding all of those customization options if he's clearly decided to not actually do anything about them post their introduction.
