Also it feels contradictory tbh and hilarious too that my mc on one side thinks every person on earth is pest and fuel to ascend and become god but on other hand gets his *** kicked by the likes of he gang and others
Maybe his time hasn't come yet but still another criticism that resonates with me is that medium frog technique manual bruh I am not saying make mc god but if my mc can complete a lost art of su de at least give readers choice between high and medium techniques with reasoning behind it like raising too much suspicion etc
This is another part of what I don’t like about the MC. He acts very arrogant most of the time, or most of the options are always about arrogance. Honestly, if I could, I’d just follow a path of indifference or something like that, because after discovering TW’s plan, my MC really doesn’t care much about staying in that world, much less about a “rivalry” with Ruo, which is already nonexistent to me. But the personality is always canonically arrogant, even though I honestly think he doesn’t even deserve to be arrogant at this point in the story when literally everything has been handed to him and he doesn’t even use it properly. I actually felt secondhand embarrassment that in a mission where you’re supposed to be the bodyguard, you literally forget to protect the person you’re meant to be guarding just to fight two martial artist who are way weaker than you — and you even get paid for failing it. Honestly, even if the guy hadn’t killed the girl, one of the weaker cultivators who slipped past your guard would have done it, because MC didn’t do his job well even though he’s supposed to be so strong. It’s not that I have a problem with an arrogant MC, but I feel like there’s not much variety in personality here. I don’t know if it’s just my experience, but that’s how it feels to me.
An example is when Ruo interrupts your meditation. I remember that literally all the options were the same thing, just worded differently. I’m like, bro, I genuinely don’t care about you at all, but my MC actually bothers to respond to a clown like him, when I would’ve just looked at him and gone back to my meditation if I could.
(I’m probably exaggerating a bit here, but I genuinely remember my experience with the game being like that the last time I read it.)
