the gender thing isn't so much translation as localization to my understanding. the gendered terms that English uses are generally gender neutral in Chinese. but singular they isn't really a thing in Chinese either nor would it be any more understandable to English speakers in context. Just a matter of the grammar not aligning perfectly between 2 languages. which is what gave rise to localizers in the first place. too bad the most notable localizers in the industry have gone mad with power. gives rise to hate at the entire profession.

can't wait to see these idiots realize they can't replicate the huazi and all the enemies they made are for nothing. lol

ummmm. I think you may be seeing a few too many protagonists in this world. something is definatly screwy in your thinking. lol.

one of the weirder parts of reading translated Chinese cultivation novels. they give some strange titles to the cultivation levels. real person is equivalent to golden core ussually. I think it's an issue of the way the language is written having to be translated from a more descriptive symbol based language to the alphabets most of the rest of the world uses.

it really depends. the queen should have control of what she creates through a combination of instincts and pheromones. the monsters may be a bit stronger than normal creatures but the worst is probably an alien that refuses to just die or lose fighting strength until the damage to it reaches the threshold.

something that was mentioned in a cross-genre meta novel comes to mind. the characteristics of a cultivation main character. they get through everything in their path by luck or power. because the world around them encourages that. there are no great schemes in the cultivation genre because the populations of such worlds are generally muscle heads. even more so here where the ranking lists and newspaper expose most things immediatly. anyone giving a false name for their schemes is likely to be outted by the newspaper in anything as large as what was just done.

yeah. but up to this point lilly has never had actual conversations with the system "on screen" most of her speaking to it is just basic commands to this point. regardless lilly isn't exactly a good comparison for jack vs the average player. lol.

I almost wanna say that the high priest was the salary man in the previous timeline. he seems to fit most of the profile. Just that he is the boss of his company.

had to learn his demon summoning rituals somewhere lol.

having read through most of super gene I can very definitively say that it has absolutely nothing to do with mecha. other than that I do agree with you. for someone looking for mecha there are plenty of other series to read that are about mecha. honestly I'm still getting early maze runner vibes from this. which as a dystopia is a good one to gather inspiration from. although the amount of people who read the synopsis and are now complaining about what's going on us annoyingly high. seriously the main characters all have amnesia. the only way to go about world building from a writing perspective is as the characters learn about it. don't complain about common sense things people. thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

I agree that it should be the standard to give some notice of having chosen someone else. unfortunately that's not how it works. actual companies only ever call the person they decide to hire. it's just wasting time which equals wasting money to call someone that is neither a customer nor an employee.

considering the tech we have that can catfish someone over the phone either by text or voice calls using ai... do you really think that in a world that has an ai like the system running infinite that they don't have the tech to have an ai with its own phone number? lol.

yeah. nobody actually thinks that the Buddha is real by this point. only the "demon monk" knows the true Buddha.

the system is an incredibly advanced learning AI. he is the only person who actively speaks to it so it learned to speak back to him. it's why he is shown more of the behind the scenes messages than he should see. as for the more personalized messages like this one. I personally see it as the system attempting to scold him while knowing it won't do anything. like a defeated sigh along with the words.

so what I'm reading is that someone decided that dark souls as a design philosophy is demonic. lol.

the npc thing is more of a reference to her maxed out opinion of him keeping pumpkin girl from being too mad at him. meanwhile bubblegum doesn't see an npc as an actual rival.

the point of having it be full of audience reactions was to show that the fights were even more repetitive. he took down every opponent within seconds. and it only took him that long because he was going easy on most of them. I will agree that the audience reaction is used too much in novels lately but with this one being at a point of accumulation through repetitive actions, it's faster to go with audience reactions unless you'd rather just skip the entire event.

just a nearly beggar trying to justify his lack of food. lol.

this seems to cut off rather abruptly. was there an issue with the upload?

it does. but cultivation is something that average cultivators spend years on. only geniuses will cross the early levels in weeks or months.
