Review Detail of Gerrit_Valkering in Dungeon Farming: Reborn as a Dungeon Lord, cultivating life inside a cave.

Now, where to start. A slightly alternative dungeon story where once more the dungeon master tries his best not to actually kill anything, this time he'll make a farm instead of a killer dungeon. Despite giving a somewhat low score let me say this first: The story is entertaining and will let you pass a couple of idle hours. I havent gotten to the most recent chapter, so maybe it gets better in the next bits. However, story development is slow (not a criticism, just a conclusion), so I doubt anything earthshaking will occur. It's been updating regularly, I do hope it keeps up a good pace. I like the world setting. I can see how demons would have created dungeons to use the miasma they spread to make more armies, but now the demons are gone dungeons act to purify the area instead. Great plot point! otherwise it is still somewhat barebones, but it's still early. The writing severely gets on my nerves. I do not like emoticons, luckily it doesn't trigger my other peeve, onomatopoeia. Maybe I'm too old? I dont read emoticon language. Also, so many status screens. Please, only show them when there is some actual true development. How about cutting out most of it and only showing the 'new' part? like.. "After opening his status he scanned down the information until he found his new ability." Maybe it's just me, but at least try to limit it to one per chapter. The story is kind of all over the place and logic doesn't seem to have a reasonable place. Two teenage girls seem to be fine following a fully decked out warrior mage who already killed someone they know. It's not just 'oh he killed someone' but 'oh he killed the father of my fiancé, big deal'. And they flirt with him, to make their boyfriends jealous - who aren't there to see or hear it. How does that work? A whole pile of cursed weapons at his entrance and he doesn't move them to a safer place. From being cutesy and frivolous, we move to a bloody sacrifice. Hey, at least give us a warning before you start bleeding out pure elven maidens! At least the author doesn't immediately make the various women, and there are mostly women visiting, naturally, fall in love, big plus. Though plenty of girls seem attracted to him (all seemingly underage or nearly so... what the hell?), it's either lust or greed or because they want his power, none claim its because he's such a nice character. Refreshing to have the women actually have a clear reason for their various choices. The same inconsistencies follow the characters though. The MC is from that world, medieval magic, an archaeologist and he is familiar with the death god, yet he also knows computers? At some points he is decisive at others an idiot who needs others to tell him what to do. 'It's my house, how dare you intrude, face my wrath! I'll stand quietly in the corner now'. And the only reason for the inconsistencies is... Because it is funny. If you can ignore those points it's a fun read that will keep you occupied some hours. I would, at this point, not make it a must-read or recommended read. I'll be looking forward to see how the author will evolve together with his story. Best of luck!
