Review Detail of Irappu in The Oracle Paths
Review detail
This is no different than those old drama shows that fabricate intricate scenarios just to sustain drama and captivate the audience, keeping them on edge. Also, the dungeon Nexus isn't comparable to Jake losing four years of progression, especially when you consider how much he achieved in just one year. Another thing: why does every character who plays an antagonistic role seem infinitely smarter and more resourceful than the characters we're meant to root for? By now, why is Jake still the same naive, clumsy character he was at the beginning of the story? If the average person went through what Jake has experienced, they would have transformed, becoming almost unrecognizable. Yet somehow, Jake remains stagnant even after 1000+ chapters, with no character development. The same recurring drama, unresolved issues that just keep piling up one after the other. The only reason I continue reading this novel is because of the captivating world and unique powers. Everything else – from progression to logic to character depth – is abysmal. It feels like I'm watching that subpar show, 'Desperate Housewives.' It baffles me how a story can span 1000+ chapters with so little advancement. At this point, being able to write so much filler can be seen as a talent in itself, not to mention the excruciatingly slow release schedule.

I came back for my yearly checking of this novels reviews to check how some people have waken up, i stopped reading at about chapter 600s i got tired of the author forcing the narrative and honestly him forcing the mc to have a relationship with ruby after people made a ruckus in the comments about how she sucks and he still ended up going with it, I dont know how u managed to read 1k chapters of this you have a mind of steel for sure.
I forgot to mention that "Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse" was released around the same time as this novel. "Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse" is currently on chapter 2481, whereas this novel is only at chapter 1055 — less than half. And the progression in this story isn't even comparable to the advancement we see in the first 100 chapters of "Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse." If there's going to be so much filler and drama, there should at least be volume, but even that is lacking.
It's also ranked #12 in the 'Originals' Power Ranking and has almost four times the views. Even when you account for the larger chapter count, it still boasts double the views per chapter.

Since it doesn’t look like you’ll pick blood legacy anytime soon, I just wanted to ask; what is the mystery item in the box?

Thank you for your lengthy response to my review. While I appreciate the effort to explain your perspective, it doesn't change the glaring issues I've pointed out in your novel. Character Growth: Let's be clear: Jake's character is stagnant. Over 1,000 chapters in, and he's still the same naive, clumsy individual from the start. Your defense of his "traits" doesn't excuse the lack of development. A character can retain core traits while still evolving, and Jake simply hasn't. Antagonists vs. Protagonists: It's one thing to have a protagonist face challenges; it's another to make him perpetually outwitted by every antagonist he encounters. It's not about disliking challenges; it's about the protagonist appearing inept chapter after chapter. Comparison with "Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse": The comparison stands. While your novel drags on with filler content, "Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse" has managed to deliver twice the content with more meaningful progression. It's not just about quantity; it's about quality and pacing. Release Rate and Rankings: While I understand the challenges of balancing a job with writing, it's not the reader's concern. If you're going to write, especially a paid webnovel, then you should be prepared to deliver. Using your job as an excuse for slow releases and subpar content is unprofessional. Story Progression: Your novel feels like a never-ending cycle of drama with little to no resolution. It's like watching a soap opera where the plot never advances. The unique world and powers you've introduced are overshadowed by the repetitive drama and lack of character depth. In short, your response, while detailed, doesn't address the core issues of your novel. Instead of being defensive, perhaps consider the feedback and improve. Until then, your novel remains a masterclass in how to stretch out a story with minimal progression.
