Hello! Yet another shameless review from an aspiring author but that comes with being a writer, right? We'll always love our works like they're our firstborns (and no one can change our mind otherwise). This is not your typical novel with a System. In fact, the System is the Main Character for this novel (shocker!) though you probably already knew that from reading the summary. Right? Right. Our lovable, grumpy System, aka Alec, is about to undergo trials and tribulations whilst (hopefully) finding a lady love. Short-tempered and quick to anger, Alec is definitely going to be in for some trouble... Equipped with the weakest Magitype, and the most discriminated Societype, here comes Alec. Give it a try! You never know if you'll like it ;)

Curse the Mainframe! by Rxel is an atypical system story. It follow System No.00290596 (Or Alec, as he is named after that) in his punishment. Alec was the perfect system. Sending his hosts to be the protagonists of their worlds. Following the rule book to the letter. No privilege or bonus given. But well... as we know, systems that are liked are the bullied kind and those who twist the system's rules a little for their host. So our system is disliked. Hated even, by his hosts, so much that he gets enough bad reviews to be punished by the mainframe. So our indignant system was punished to be reincarnated in one of the system's worlds. There he encounters many opportunities of protagonists... without being one himself. We have to know that Alec is a system that lost a lot of his humanity. His comportement is more like a machine, without compassion for his hosts. So his punishment actually lead our antisocial Alec to regain some of his humanity. What is good is that System No.00290596 is actually influenced by the world he is in and really become Alec, the person he is reborn as. From the simple fact that he is Alec, his personality begin to change. So you may ask... why is he a system ? Couldn't he be just some antisocial human in some world ? Well, the fact that he is a system has a real influence. He views the world as a system. And... He IS a system. Who does the job of a system. It gives a whole other dimension to the novel. (SPOILER ALERT :: Just wait until he obtains 1000 system points, you will like it ;) ) That was for the story. The world is developed little by little, without big chunks of explanations. The systems of magic and the organisation of the social class is also interesting : Each person has his social class defined at birth. Even if you are born in a clan/sect or big family, you can still be trash at birth, or even worst, a criminal. The MC is also powerfull. He isn't OP, but he was still a system for some centuries or so, thus he has both intelligence and experience, which gives him quite the head start. He also has his own personality and isn't your generic MC. The side characters are also interesting, the stories doesn't focus much on them but doesn't disregard them either. Grammatically, the story is also well written, I didn't find many faults. The author has written quite a few novels before that, so you can expect some quality. In summary, it is a good system story that I warmly recommend.

Well, this is the second novel from the author that I'm reading and I will warn you. My review is extremely biased. One: Writing quality is awesome pawsome. Then again, English isn't my first language so if you are expecting exceedingly perfect English with proper prose / sentence structure etc then this isn't for you. If you want to read an awesome descriptive novel that has really good English and can bring you into its world: then dig in. Two: Author is always twisted. I mean, in terms of plot, shocks, different storyline and whatever else you can think of. It's not the typical run-of-the-mill story which is why it's so great. System is the MC. Come on, have you ever come across any novel with that sort of plot? Three: Author is cute. Well, in terms of responding and interacting with the readers. So if you like that, then come on in. In short, dig in. Get immersed. Get lost in Author's imagination.

I haven't been on this platform long, but as far as I can see, reincarnation plot points are very prevalent here. Normally this would annoy me as I'm not to fond of the trope, but I found this gem of a story! It twists the story of reincarnation, usually a blessing, into a curse! What more could I ask for? :D

It's a good book I can't wait for more . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Lol, the system's name's so moutful, I want to type it's name here but I forgot since it's that long! But anyway, really, this is a good read one! I originally lost my way here in webnovel to read the system and cultivationshits, and seeing a gem right in front of me, i would be stupid if I won't put this in my library!

This story has one blatant Problem, it just way to good to stop reading it. The MCs are nice side characters, the system a very convincing, socially awkward being and the world and magic interesting. I need sleep! F*** the Mainframe!
