Thank you! I just opened a random chapter, chapter 448, and read a bit to see if it continues or if it’s just in the part I had read. In 448 I immediately stumbled over this as well: "that dude said that you are the key to this world's destruction or survival, to all the worlds' fate actually” So it seems to continue all the way through. My point here is that no one would call a powerful being that came from another world a “dude”. I know that younger people seem to use “dude” for anything but at least in my generation and later (I am 30) no one uses dude for anything outside of very playful banter. So reading a powerful being called a dude just ruins the immersion a lot for me. Personally, I belive that if you stuck to replacing pretty much all “dudes”, “folk” etc with the normal words like “guy/s” “man/men” etc and words like “scary” with “dangerous” etc it would turn the book back to how amazing it was at the start. Obviously it’s all up to you and just my opinion. Either way, thank you very much for even responding to the review. I hadn’t expected it. I will check on the novel again in a couple of weeks and see if it got edited and becomes enjoyable (for me) again.

It started ever since meeting Ibra which I believe was around Chapter 240 or so and made me give up around Chapter 300 or so. I reread my review and noticed it does sound a bit harsh but that’s just how frustrated I was. I’ve read tons of books and never actually wrote a review. Seeing this book going from absolutely great to what felt like unreadable was just so frustrating. The MC is supposed to be an old reincarnater but suddenly ge speaks like an angsty teenager. I could understand (not like but understand) if the other children used “dude” but no normal older person speaks like this. Same for using the words of “this scary scary dude/ monster”. Like, sure it is a dangerous enemy but the word scary like that just sounds so childish. I really loved the book until this part.

To clarify again, I love the book itself but the constant “dude” makes me want to give up on it. If I could download the entire book and simply delete the word “dude” out of it, it would make it a million times more enjoyable

Book starts great but the word choices later on leave me disappointed. Like at the start I would give it a straight 5. Sadly later the writing changes as if the author was swapped from an adult to a teenager. It constantly is “this dude”, “that dude” as if a teenager wrote it. I think the word ”dude” is the most used word in this novel and it gets old very fast. Then you have people say things like “how did you know our mighty and scary name”. Or ”this is a really scary dude”.
