S-Tier Writing. Anything else is a lie and you should play this game right now.

Yeah now that actually makes a bit more sense on regards to the stones but still I will stick to my opinion,Like I said I am not looking for any arguments simply just trying to figure out these weird plot holes I came across, hopefully the dev will clarify a few of my points for me. And yeah I did have a suspicion that not all the stones are the same power but still tang wei did say we only need a few of them and they are pretty rare.

Mhmm I wasnt referring to you my guy,was talking to the other guy but you did bring up some pretty good points so yeah for now I will just wait until more content so I can form a better opinion on the pacing,at least you aren't an asshole about it and you give geniuene good points.

Thanks for your input, but it seems like you missed a big part of what I was saying, my friend. The only reason the main character isn't the strongest in the world is because the world he lives in isn't suitable for proper cultivation. Sure, the author has added their own twist to cultivation, but it still follows the general rules. Cultivation does take a ridiculously long time, but what you don't seem to understand is that the main character has a martial sovereign body, which is considered one of the most overpowered things in cultivation. On top of that, he's a reincarnation of a god. Now, I'm not saying he should instantly become a god or anything, because that would make the story less exciting. The main character is still in his early years, and the story will hopefully show his journey as he becomes an unbeatable force over the years. However, the problem is that he progresses way too slowly, especially when it comes to the stones. Tang Wei himself said that finding a few of these stones would instantly boost him to godhood or something along those lines, and killing martial artists makes you stronger by absorbing them. So far, we've only seen one stone boost the main character from a weak mortal to a middle houtain after a 2-year coma. That was a huge power boost. Now, you're telling me I'm being impatient when the main character has already found another stone after meeting the dragon girl, and his power boost is just a few dai strands? If we follow the logic that even the main character himself stated as well as tang wei, these stones should make him even stronger. By now, in the story, he's found 2 stones, so absorbing the second one should at least put him at peak houtain. I'm simply pointing out the plot holes I'm seeing, and it's not impatience to expect the main character to get stronger faster than everyone else. If you've read any cultivation stories or manhuas, you'd know that even the weakest cultivators with impurities, once they possess a martial body, will always be leagues above the rest.

I'm not here to argue, just sharing my opinions on things that I think should be addressed. It's okay if you don't agree with me. As someone who loves reading cultivation stories, I have a lot of insights on the subject. I'm just pointing out things that don't make sense to me in this story. Yes, I understand that the story isn't complete and the developer doesn't want us to become instantly stronger. However, the words in the story contradict the cultivation process itself. I won't be replying to this anymore because I've already said my piece. Continuing this discussion would be a waste of time. I just want to see this game succeed and hear the developer's thoughts on the issues I've raised. Remember, you didn't write this story, the developer did. So, no matter what you say, only the developer can correct my assumptions since they control the story flow. Have a good day.

I remember playing this game when the first chapter came out and it instantly hooked me but I decided to put it down and give it some time just so I don't get sad when I finish the story so quickly, I completely forgot this game existed and always called it in my mind the crown game 😅🤣 and finally I randomly found it today while browsing through some IF's reccomendations and the fact that chapter 3 is coming out in a mere few days has me hyped,so I will patiently wait until it comes out before diving into this world again,I don't think I can handle waiting any longer.

So, I just finished playing the game and I wanted to share my thoughts on the overall experience. Let me start by saying that this game definitely ranks in my top 10 best Choicescript games of all time. As someone who grew up watching a lot of classic martial arts movies and has an interest in Chinese mythology due to my Chinese grandad, this game is like a perfect love letter to those interests. It strongly reminds me of the Manhua martial peak, and the story has been enjoyable from start to finish in this version. There's also a good amount of content and some really impressive fighting scenes. 

Now, let's address a few areas that could use some improvement. First, the freeroam section is just okay. It's not anything special, mainly just training and buying talismans to get stronger. But right now, it feels a bit bare bones. I think it would be great if the freeroam section could also be a place where you can hang out with the main love interests and strengthen your bond. Currently, you only see them for a few important missions, and I'm personally focusing on romancing Mei Mei while also having Tang Ruo as my second choice. The tigress character seems to be the most developed in terms of romance, which is a bit disappointing. I hope the developer can make the freeroam more interactive in the future, allowing us to build relationships with other characters outside of the main story and side quests.

Lastly, I want to talk about a spoiler for those who haven't finished the current version. (Spoilers Ahead)

So basically, we all know that the main character is the reincarnation of Tang Wei, a literal God and the most powerful character in their world. One thing that has been bothering me is how slow the main character is progressing in terms of moving up in the realms. After being reborn by tang wei to true cultivation and going from mortal to middle houtain in terms of power in an instant, I expected the main character to level up much faster now, especially since they can absorb other martial artists to become stronger. But even after all that has happened, the main character is still stuck around the middle to late houtain level, which doesn't make sense to me. In my playthrough, I've reached max demon and have no problem with killing people, yet the main character still hasn't managed to break through to the next level. It's frustrating that even after absorbing the stone from the dragon cave, they didn't reach peak Houtain or above especially when Tang Wei himself said that these stones would greatly increase his powers. It feels like a major misstep. And even after everything they've done, the main character still hasn't reached Xiantian yet(Okay im reaching on this one but still). I understand that cultivation can take a long time, but considering the main character is a martial sovereign and the reincarnation of a God, it's surprising that they haven't reached the top yet at least by his generation.

At this point, the main character should have already surpassed Tang Ruo. Let's be honest, we all know that the only reason Tang is stronger than the main character is because she had the best training from birth and has a ton of overpowered artifacts and talismans. Even before reaching true cultivation, the main character could keep up with her. But even after discovering the truth about his origins and getting a huge power boost, the main character still feels weak compared to her. It's frustrating, especially since the main character wins most of the fights after ascending, but it still feels like he's barely scraping by. I play on the heaven exp trail(or something like that), so I make every single skill check, yet the main character still almost burns to death near the end when you fight the spear twins(Some fights simply give way to much trouble than it's worth even if you make the skill checks.) I understand that the story is far from complete and we're still early in the main character's life, but I really want to see some progress in his strength. At this point, I personally think the main character should be the strongest in his generation, but he's still second to Tang Ruo. If the author sees this, I'd love to hear their thoughts on everything I've said. I genuinely enjoy this story and I hope it stays on track and meets everyone's expectations.

You can download your saves in freeroam it is called protected saves.

Thanks for the info I appreciate the help 👍

Yeah I did go back and then decided to ask him questions instead of instantly killing him and yes I did change my mc name from wu to he but im planning on betraying the he clan,with mo long help which made me fail the mission but i do hope that he does become helpful down the road. I also told him that the he clan was responsible for him killing his lover so I do hope these options don't come bite me back,I know for sure the mc at their current state can't fight the demon queen and I feel like if choosing to kill him I might lock myself out later on and die to her,the way the author worded it felt weirdly omnious.

Okay im curious I've been following through complete evil path while only being nice to a few people that I like and im on the fight with mo long,Now He is telling me to kill him,I normally don't hesitate to kill anyone when the game gives me an option but the fact that the demon queen was mentioned and she is one of the strongest in the story,I have a feeling that he is related to her somehow,so does killing him have consequences?

This game is definitely shaping up to be one of the best narratives for this genre, and I really appreciate the retelling of the original story in a more open-ended way. It allows us to shape Mordred's personality and opinions, which is great. However, there is one thing that bothered me and kind of disrupted the flow of the story. We're still in the early stages of the overall story, with the author planning to make four books. The first three chapters of book one were fantastic and enjoyable, but chapter four fell apart. I have to say, if the author ever sees this, please tone down the descriptions of pointless places that won't appear again or serve any purpose. Chapter four is filled with an overwhelming amount of text describing things that didn't need that much attention. It's okay to explain places and things to paint a picture for the readers, but when it's done excessively, it slows down the story. Another issue is how slow-paced chapter four is, with all the unnecessary tasks and chores. It feels like filler, as if the author hasn't figured out how to move the story forward yet. I got bored reading it and ended up skimming over the lines of useless descriptions. Thankfully, things pick up near the end, and the ending of chapter four was great. Still, it felt like a missed opportunity. But hey, I'm not the writer of this story, just sharing my thoughts as a fellow game writer. On a positive note, chapter five had a better pace, and the drama and everything were enjoyable to read.
