Review Detail of Vanaxity in The First Order

The First Order is a story about Ren Xiasou, a refugee who lives outside the strongholds. He awoke a system that allows him to get some supernatural abilities. He uses this to help him and his little brother survive. This is arguably one of my least favorite novels. I have to admit, I loved the first 400 chapters, I found it very interesting even though it wasn't perfect. However, there might as well not be a story beyond chapter 400, because nothing interesting happens beyond that point. Translation quality is garbage. Theres so many mistakes in every chapter it's ridiculous. Furthermore, the translation randomly changes, sometimes its in all lowercase, sometimes every single word is capitalized. (1/5 stars) Story development. Everything before chapter 400 is a solid 4/5, maybe even a 5/5. However, words cannot describe how garbage the novel is beyond that. It's just this ever constant stream of unimportant information while the main character is trying to "search for" people he knows. The whole assassin arc was stupid as well, we go from the main character taking on thousands of well-trained troops to the main character serving as a bodyguard to some random celebrity and fighting low-level thugs. I find myself skipping entire chapters, and the most I read per chapter at this point is 50 words. The pacing in this novel is really bad as well. Sometimes the main character is fighting an army, other times the novel takes 100 chapters setting up for something absolutely pointless. Upon realizing this, the author tries to make it seem slightly important later on, but it genuinely feels like a afterthought. Power scaling is just as bad. The main character is "overpowered" but not at all. He fights against armies but always seems to be only slightly better than everyone else. This might just be because he never fights with anyone strong, but it remains the same. The system he has is also extremely inconsistent, and recently it's basically forgotten. Early on, it would give him quests that allow him to duplicate people's skills and superpowers. Now, it's basically forgotten. Furthermore, he is extremely stupid with how he uses the skill duplication scrolls. He uses them in the worst possible way, so he has a extremely odd-assortment of skills. Also, I didn't properly explain how much filler there is. Every single time the main character fights, theres a solid three chapters of the main character "overhearing" people praising and talking about him. It's so annoying to read. Last point, this novel is even more repetitious than cultivation novels. The same plot points happen over and over and over. Luo Lan, a friend of the main character, has been saved well over 30 times at this point, and it's downright tedious to read at this point. (1/5 stars, would give it less if I could) Character design is equally awful. Zhou Yingxue, a character that gets introduced after the first 400 chapters, is downright annoying. She is a useless character that only serves as plot armor and comedic relief. The first 400 chapters had good characters, and they only seemed really realistic. This all went out the window after chapter 400, where every single character is annoying. Also, their IQ drops after chapter 400, where despite the main character attempting to look for them, they don't do the same. It is EXTREMELY obvious where the main character is, and they just ignore him? Hello? (1/5 stars) World background is a mess. Honestly, it's probably around 3 stars, but I'm lowering to 1 star just because of how awful the plot dumping is. There is still a ridiculous amount of plot dumping at CHAPTER 600. This information is just abruptly talk about, with barely any interlude. Almost every single thing they talk about as well is super boring, and I find myself just skipping three chapters at a time. Overall, I recommend not reading this novel at all. I would recommend reading the first 400 chapters, but it leaves you on a cliff-hanger so I doubt anyone would be satisfied. Everything beyond chapter 400 is a mess, and I'm questioning why the author thought it would be good. I give this novel 1.0 stars out of 5.
