Review Detail of LollipoPReapeR in The Mech Touch

I am quite dissapointed. I mean I slogged through 1000+ chapters. I came for mech building/design with system but for past 700 chapters I've instead been watching a glorified technician making foolish decisions then justifying them with some frankly ridiculous logic and the pseudo version of the 'Dao' that is the design philosophy. MC also has standard Chinese MC trait of licking the governments ass at every opportunity even when they do everything they can to manipulate/screw him over (they literally shot him to stage an assassination and MC was pissed off for all of 1 paragraph then he's back to lick lick lick). Honestly without plot armour, MC would not have survived the first. MC also gives me whiplash on how his morality and feelings for others change. First he treats his Vandal colleagues like trusted comrades, then next second they are just *mere* numbers to be thrown into the meat grinder. He also seems to make all these 'deals' that never seem to favour him. Every accomplishment/gain must be follwed by a monumentous **** up, ominous portents or some inherent problem with the gain so its not much of win at all. MC has shown classic traits of psycopathy but is still emotionally attached in the strangest of ways. His family pretty much abandoned him at the start, the government has been more of a hindrance than any help, but he is still strangely patriotic. On the other hand, the skill shown in writing is pretty much top-tier as original novels in this place go. For a heavily re-skinned xianxia, author has put in quite a bit of thought as far as world building goes as well. This is my personal gripe but it would be a lot better if it were't for all the chinese euphemisms and writing style. Borrowing ideas and concepts is one thing, but writing a supposed western space opera as if one were actually translating a chinese fic is another.
