Review Detail of warrock4862 in Supreme Grandpa

Dude just say that you dont like the novel and leave As you’re only gonna make more people not read the novel which is hella good to me and countless other people There’s no need to say that its clickbait or that its bad Just be like a normal and proper human being and just say that the novel doesn’t fit your taste

That’s what a review is. I don’t see any problem with expressing your view in regards to a text. It’s not like people expect to find objective information in a REVIEW of all things. I don’t think it needs a disclaimer. If people are dissuaded from reading the work after reading this review, then all is as it should be. That’s what reviews are for. Besides, reviews are meant to provide helpful information so that the author can attempt to improve upon their shortcomings. Suffice it to say that simply saying that something ‘doesn’t suit your tastes’, like a ‘normal proper human’ is idiotic and completely meaningless.

Are you kidding me- He literally said that it was clickbait and didn’t offer any good advice so how is thay helping the author??? Plus The author literally never looks at his reviews

And it isnt idiotic compared to someone saying that its clickbait sithout offering any good advice

True, but given that it is a review - a showcase of one’s personal opinions in regards to a product - such things are within acceptable parameters. After all, there is no knowing what factors contributed to the end result. Perhaps the reviewer got exposed to a series of different works, which when compared to this work, evoked this reaction. One can’t know these things, which is why complaining about not posting them in the first place does more harm overall than it does benefit anyone. As long as a review provides insight into a reader’s impression of a work/product, it fulfils the basic conditions for a review to be considered ‘worthwhile’.

the point of reviews arent just to "help" an author, its to give their personal opinions of the novel.

Meh

my good sir.... I feel you don't understand what a review is. we write and read each other's reviews so we don't end up wasting money on a novel who's true concept doesn't interest us. if ppl just say "I don't like" or "I like" there's literally no frame of reference and we'll inevitably end up reading a few dozen chapters before deciding if we like it or not. I prefer to read through the reviews and if enough reviews say similar negative things that I don't like, I'll just pass and look for something else.

the reviewer doesn't have any compulsion to give advice to the author. there's honestly no reason for them to do so, especially if they drop it. a review is just to put your personal opinion on a novel out there to potentially benefit other readers
