Review Detail of Zelinker in MMORPG: The Elementalist

I've read up to chapter 100 in this story before dropping it. The pacing of the story is slower than a slug. By chapter 100, only about 48 hrs. have transpired within the timeline of the story. This is because the author rambles, a lot, when he is explaining things, and he also goes into long winded inner monologues of the MC, that repeats a lot of the information you've already learned earlier in the story, and he does this frequently. This made the story very boring, as well as annoying for me. The other thing I didn't like about this story, is how the author makes the MC out to be this godly player, when at the beginning of the story the MC is only a Tier 3 Aquamaster at level 35 (8-14 levels below the high ranked players) and equipped with below average gear, which even gets described as "absolute trash". But yet, the MC can: 1 - Cast Multiple different spells at the same time, which apparently don't have a cool down. 2 - Manipulate his spells whenever and however he wants, like splitting a spell apart and changing one half into a different spell. 3 - Has godly custom spells he created himself. While at the same time, the hundreds of thousands of so called elites and professional players are made to look like a bunch of newbs, who: 1 - Can only use one spell/skill at a time, which have cooldowns. 2 - Can't manipulate their skills. 3 - Have no, nor know how to create custom skills. To me, this is absolute BS, not to mention the author doesn't show the MC's stats until like chapter 23, doesn't show MP cost or any other relevant info about most of MC's spells, nor does he even explain how MC acquired his spells or how he made his custom ones. This lack of info becomes quite convenient for the author however, like in the mini boss fight that takes place after MC joins a party. In this fight, the MC cast dozens of spells just before unleashing is ultimate custom spell, all while never replenishing his mp. And if you do some calculation based off of what little info you've been given by this point, it's obvious that the MC wouldn't have enough mp to cast his "12 frost rampart formation" spell even if his mp was full. So, although the author tries to makes the MC look witty and strategic in this scene, he contradicts the logic of the world he's created to make the MC look OP. Because of this, the MC, at least to me, is like the protagonist of some low rate action-shooter film, were the hero's guns never runs out of bullets. Overall, I feel this story is poorly written, and I doubt that the author has ever read or played a game that would fall within the genre of an MMORPG. This story might get better after chapter 100, but I have no interest in finding out. Other might like this story, as for me, I wish I never tried it. I give the 100 chapters I've read so far a rating of 3/10.
